Only
education can help us to understand the knowledge of the universe, which is
alike, an ocean. It enlightens everyone's minds.
It is because of education that one can absorb knowledge. The best method to
imbibe maximum knowledge is reading and self study and as a result of
knowledge, the mind becomes enlightened. We should regularly study books having
a lot of knowledge because it is through study only that the mind is filled
with good thoughts, that inspire us to seek good company which is equally
beneficial in acquiring knowledge. This is the sure way for growth of the mind
and also to acquire eternal happiness and peace. |
