True education is that which helps us to know the atman, our true self. God and Truth. To acquire this knowledge, some persons may feel the need for a study of literature, some for a study of physical sciences and some others for art. But every ranch of knowledge should have as its goal, knowledge of the self. That is so in the Ashram. We carry on numerous activities with that aim in view.

It's not scientifically proven but it's my personal opinion.If you have two options that choose by you only but you're still confused😕 that what you have to choose &amp; which path is protective. For example you choose first as doctor &amp; second as police. Just do one thing do research about it and which way is you think that's right that may be right way for you.
