The aim of education according to Swami, an eastern philospher

          According to Swami, the child has all the spiritual and material knowledge but it is covered by curtain so the aim of education should be concerned to achieve fullness of perfection.  Education should tear the veil so that the knowledge will shine. Also another aim of education according to Swami is development of the mental and physical state in the child. He believed that if a child has grown well, he will be the a great citizen and a crucial member in the society, also by this way will be able to develop his own world instead of depending on others and becoming parasite on them. He added that the greatness of citizens can be achieved through moral and spiritual development which education should foster. He believed when the education system turns to develop the mental, physical, spiritual and moral state of the child, this will eventually lead to purity of thought, words and deeds. He had the famous say “Arise, awake and stop not till the goal is achieved”, meaning that each individual should have a goal and should try his best to reach his goal by keeping full confidence. Therefore, a child should be thought in a manner to have faith in his own self.

          Finally he tried and succeeded in changing the system of education, so that the society will be affected positively and has unity in diversity.
