Question: From the spiritual point of view, what is education?

Sri Chinmoy: There are three kinds of education: human education, divine education and God-education. Human education means keeping our eyes wide open. In order to do that, we must stop making friends with ignorance-night.

Divine education is self-giving. In order to do that, we must feel that God is the only existence-reality both here on earth and there in Heaven.

God-education is satisfaction in perfection. This satisfaction in perfection can be achieved only when we feel that there can be no other way to make ourselves happy than by making God Himself happy.
