Right to Education - Are we really right on this?

Right to Education - Are we really right on this?

Education is a mere term used by bigwigs to dissolve a social justifiable cause for their motives. I would like to change that. What should actual education be like? Read on to find out more.

Education is a and should be a fundamental right. I more than agree on this because I believe in - giving an opportunity for an individual self to learn and earn rather than anything else. That's why I run a trust which has similar interests as well - Jey Geethan's Helper Elf Trust

I am trying to question the way its being currently implemented in the society.

Education faces the following problems currently:

  1. Exclusivity
  2. Irrelevant to earning a living

The basic premise that education should provide a livelyhood is sabotaged because it's not possible to provide the right education to the right people at the right time. So are we really right on this?

I am of the opinion that the following should also be part of an education (from my own experience) apart from the regular educational system.

  1. Reading the right blog posts about a subject that you are wanting to learn
  2. Talking to the right people who have been there, done that
  3. Reading the right books
  4. Watching the right videos
  5. Opportunities for the individuals which help them gain the added experience
  6. Right Teachers
  7. Correct motivation

Yes, I agree that a formal education helps to alleviate some of the above points. But I have a deeper question - how many of the people in this world get all the above vantage? I would say that there are a vast majority of people who don't get these opportunities and I think the system needs to be improved in order to fix them.

Is it possible to fix them all? I will leave the answer unanswered.

Are we living a lie - Do people really need other people?

Are we living a lie - Do people really need other people?
We have all been taught that people need other people to live in this life. Is that the truth? The world that we are witnessing everyday, is in a bad shape. I believe so very rightly because I face a few ruthless humans that do not consider the well being of others. They are just abnormally selfish. At work, at roads, at every public place.
