The Importance of Education
Ask Me About Truth, Episode 8
Swami Kriyananda wrote a book called Education for Life (available online for free and for purchase) and talks about Yogananda's interest in education, and how the non-sectarian principles he taught have been implemented at Ananda Village.
He talks about the different stages of development that children go through and offers thoughts for how to bring the best and the highest out of young people by helping them to learn universal high principles.
From education, he goes on to discuss the trend of modern art and its influence on us.
