In plain words
But today, giving in to mean desires, we are moving away from that divine principle, the principle of the Mahārāja. We waste our lives on empty hopes. Day by day we add to our burdens. This is not the Viveka of education. This is not the Vijñāna of education. You must recognise the Satya that is the Vijñāna of education. The search for Satya is the Viveka of education. That is the goal of education. You must recognise Satya. Only then do you become the very embodiment of Satya.
Humility, character and Satya: it is these three that are the chief qualities that bring honour to education
Students! While you are students, you must keep in view the conduct that befits students. If you take the name of students and behave as seekers of sense pleasures, it brings dishonour on your very life. It becomes a disgrace to humanness. It is humility that is the chief honour of education. It is Satya and character that are its well-being. Bhakti for God is its very life. When we cast these three away, however much we may study, it is of no use.
Having read all the books and grown very learned, the dull-witted man does not know himself in his heart; however much he studies, whatever his station, the base man cannot leave his bad qualities.
Study and study again, and all it gives is argument; full Jñāna he never attains. Why read all the books and then die? Study the learning that knows no death.
Ānanda has no death. We must always recognise that svarūpa of Ānanda.
Students! You know it well. Today morality and honesty are found among the village folk who have had no schooling at all, more than among the educated who have studied.
