*Breakdown of Our Educational System:

Preamble:  The next set of questions are in the category of our education system and its breakdown. Preamble: In a recent session with you, when asked about the continuing and future failure of our education system you said, “I agree there will be a breakdown of your educational system.  You are quite literally seeing it now in action.  Evidence is all around you in your educational system on the failure to educate those who are capable of learning with self interest of educational groups, whether it ‘s management groups or labor groups, these all work against the upliftment of your society out of selfish interest."

Question #6: How do we avoid making the worst choices when putting a public education system back together again? Any hope that we won ‘t put back the same thing that failed to begin with because that is the only model we have recent experience with?  How do we make the best choices?

Monjoronson:  Forms of education will always be defined and redefined based on the cultures an educational system is supported by.  Ancient forms of education were merely learning the rituals of the tribe and soon the doctrines of the religions, as we have discussed earlier, education currently addresses the needs of management and labor from in the economic business sense of training.

Be not concerned about avoiding the worst decisions because they have been made and are recognizable.  It is through this that you can construct an improved system.  But first you must look at the needs of the culture before you construct an educational system which will address those needs.  To merely develop a system of education without giving attention to the cultural needs will orphan itself from purpose.  So look to what civilization needs now and then construct that system of teaching. Next question.

Question #7:  One person cannot do all that needs to be done when starting over again to educate for a sustainable society.  Who or what can we put into place to help direct rebuilding public education which may prevent those interests that will stubbornly attempt to use the old ways that brought failure before?

   −
Monjoronson:  I must caution you about the tendency to see a clear-cut end of one system and the beginning of another, for this will not happen.  You will have overlapping efforts.  You will have educational institutions that will maintain the original paradigm and other institutions spring up to bring up, to foster, a new approach.  Humanity doesn’t change quickly, and both orientations will serve purpose for quite some time.

Question #8: [Mary]  Our educational system will continue evolving through the stages it has made and building on its successes and hopefully becoming renewed rather than a complete failure and a rebuilding?

Monjoronson:  Yes with one further clarification. The perceived mistakes that were made were not mistakes. When they were initiated they served their purpose and have only become outmoded or irrelevant and therefore perceived as a mistake, as would be through my example of education of primitive times, merely being the comprehension of the rites of the tribe.  One might call that a mistake because there was no curriculum incorporating reading or mathematics or science of any sort.  But it was appropriate as an educational system of the time.

Question #9:  Is it not of great importance to educate individuals about how to be good citizens?  Would it be a good idea for all citizens regardless of age or other education to be required to undergo such instruction before they are granted citizenship privileges?  Should the day be over when being born in a country automatically grants citizenship privileges such as voting?

Monjoronson:  This addresses a valuable new development that is possible upon your world, one not likely to be well received at your current level of evolution in civilization.  It is fitting that a country will fully accept a native-born as a citizen, for this is the creation of home on a national level, just as a newborn is accepted into the home of the family.  You have asked about educating one in citizenship.  This can introduce a higher level of citizenry and could set the stage for those who have reached that level to have greater input into the national trends.  An example would be perhaps two votes in an election, one as a natural citizen, one as a citizen graduate.  Let us continue.

Question #10:  Should a spiritual education precede a public and secular education?  In the turmoil of the present society there ‘s no general agreement to do any such thing.  Is this turmoil not created by sectarian religion?  Is the only solution to a really good education based on waiting for the appearance of Light and Life on this planet?

Monjoronson:  No because that would be impossible. A spiritual education begins at the arrival of the Divine Spirit at the functioning of free will and will not end for all of eternity.  If you were to wait that long before public education most of you would remain uninformed.  You must begin your public education based upon the society in which that institution is functioning.  The needs that are to be taught that that individual may contribute to society, these will change as society evolves.

I hear the [[spirit]] of your question.  It would be beneficial for [[spiritual]] [[guidance]] to steer [[education]], and, yes, that would be beneficial if it preceded written [[curricula]].  However, every level of [[growth]] brings new [[spiritual]] [[revelations]] and spiritual [[unfoldment]], so they must occur [[simultaneously]].  Thank you for asking.
