Rethinking the Purpose of Education: A Call to Foster True Learning - Deepstash

A Critical Examination

We were taught that education is a key to success, urging children to attend school with the promise of acquiring knowledge, wisdom, and awareness. However, contemporary educational systems no longer fulfill their original purpose.

The focus has shifted from holistic improvement of the mind, body, soul, and spirit to serving as a reality filter rather than a beacon of enlightenment.

Today, education is often pursued out of necessity rather than personal development. It has become a revenue stream for the wealthy and a daunting struggle for the less fortunate. This critique, though harsh, reflects a stark reality.

The Unspoken Purpose of Education

Children are seldom taught the true essence of education. Instead, they are led to believe that pursuing a specific degree will lead to a less challenging career path.

The genuine purpose of education should be to help individuals discover themselves, gain essential knowledge, and work towards personal growth, consciousness, and wisdom in order to eradicate ignorance. Unfortunately, many prioritize convenience, appearance, and financial gain over developing profound character, stability, and competence. Have you ever wondered why students often struggle to retain what they are taught? It's because they haven't truly learned.

Beyond the Classroom

I'm writing to inspire you to influence one another positively and initiate a transformation.

Let's guide everyone toward greatness and serve as mentors. Let's emphasize that genuine education isn't confined to formal institutions; it can be acquired anywhere, without the need for payment or diplomas.

True education encompasses all the qualities that enrich an individual. It addresses diverse issues, combats arrogance and ignorance, and promotes holistic healing.

The Power of Choice

Our choices, from the people we associate with to the content we consume, define our path of education. Eradicating ignorance is our collective responsibility, and it commences with the choices we make.

Every action and experience contributes to our growth and learning. We should be discerning in selecting our educational avenues, as the type of education we embrace reflects our character and aspirations.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
