Education is a way to develop people. We start to be developed since we were so young. Parents send us to school. We are in school to learn. The higher we learn, we more we develop our thinking so it becomes more and more complicated and more sophisticated. A higher degree, or higher education means more ability to think. However, the power of thinking is like the power of being behind the wheel of a car. We learn how to
drive this car faster and faster. But nobody tells us where the brake of this car is. We never learn how to ‘stop’ thinking. Meditation’s role is to know how to ‘push the brake’ and ‘stop’ our mind.
