In plain words
They are spending crores. But without understanding what a system of education is, they are merely adding to the number of educational institutions. If we go deep into it and enquire well what its progress amounts to:
it mocks the very one who did it good, it throws down the very giver who fed it, it jeers at the very guru who taught it; this is the progress in today's education. All the refinement of society has been lost in the Gaṅgā, contentment itself has vanished from the human race, character and morals have wasted away in the world; this is the progress in education. The social culture of Bhārata, which knew noble ideals, they have not learnt to recognise; when the Bhāratīyas do not know how to strive, what misfortune can be greater than this?
Bhārata, which was a master of every culture, is not trying today to recognise that very culture. Even the Bhāratīyas who have recognised culture are not trying to put it into practice. What culture really is, today's students do not understand. They are forgetting the truth that culture is what brings divine humanness to its fullness. They make no fitting effort to understand the principle of body, mind and spirit. Culture is what achieves a sense of wholeness in daily life. Culture is to recognise the right relationship between the body, the mind and the Ātma, and to feel their oneness. Culture is what lets humanness be lived with a sense of fullness. Culture is what makes one recognise the very Divinity that is oneness, never giving way to differences of race and creed. Culture is what shows forth the oneness within the manifold. However much one dwells on such sacred culture, one never has enough of it. Today the students make no effort at all to recognise such divine and noble Bhāratīya culture. So we must recognise the truth that this Bhāratīya culture is the culture that holds out leadership and the divine path, not only to the Bhāratīyas but to the whole world.
Culture is what refines fear of sin and love of God as well.
