71:7.1 The [[enduring]] [[state]] is founded on [[culture]], [[dominated]] by [[ideals]], and [[motivated]] by [[service]]. The [[purpose]] of [[education]] should be acquirement of [[skill]], pursuit of [[wisdom]], realization of [[selfhood]], and [[attainment]] of [[spiritual]] [[values]].
71:7.2 In the [[ideal]] [[state]], [[education]] continues throughout life, and [[philosophy]] sometime becomes the chief pursuit of its [[citizens]]. The citizens of such a [[commonwealth]] pursue [[wisdom]] as an enhancement of [[insight]] into the significance of [[human]] [[relations]], the [[meanings]] of [[reality]], the [[nobility]] of [[values]], the goals of living, and the [[glories]] of [[cosmic]] [[destiny]].
71:7.3 Urantians should get a [[vision]] of a new and higher [[cultural]] [[society]]. [[Education]] will jump to new [[levels]] of [[value]] with the passing of the [[purely]] [[profit]]-motivated [[system]] of [[economics]]. [[Education]] has too long been localistic, militaristic, [[ego]] exalting, and success seeking; it must [[eventually]] become world-wide, [[idealistic]], [[self-realizing]], and [[cosmic]] grasping.
71:7.4 [[Education]] recently passed from the [[control]] of the clergy to that of lawyers and businessmen. [[Eventually]] it must be given over to the [[philosophers]] and the [[scientists]]. [[Teachers]] must be [[free]] [[beings]], real [[leaders]], to the end that [[philosophy]], the search for [[wisdom]], may become the chief educational pursuit.
71:7.5 [[Education]] is the [[business]] of living; it must continue throughout a lifetime so that [[mankind]] may [[gradually]] [[experience]] the [[ascending]] levels of [[mortal]] [[wisdom]], which are:
*1. The [[knowledge]] of [[things]].
*2. The [[realization]] of [[meanings]].
*3. The [[appreciation]] of [[values]].
*4. The [[nobility]] of [[work]]—[[duty]].
*5. The [[motivation]] of goals—[[morality]].
*6. The [[love]] of [[service]]—[[character]].
*7. [[Cosmic]] [[insight]]—[[spiritual]] [[discernment]].
71:7.6 And then, by means of these achievements, many will [[ascend]] to the [[mortal]] [[ultimate]] of [[mind]] [[attainment]], [[God-consciousness]].
