Powerful Medicine for Our Schools

If indeed, as most people deeply believe, life has purpose and meaning, then its goal must be to educate us ever-more fully to that meaning. And the true goal of the education we receive during our school years must be to help prepare us for that lifelong learning process.” – Swami Kriyananda

Swami Kriyananda’s book, Education for Life, is powerful medicine for what ails our schools today. It offers realistic, tested solutions to cure the widespread alienation and meaninglessness that fuel the epidemic of youth addiction, violence, and suicide.
