ONE NEEDS EDUCATION
You think that you are sent to school, that you are made to do exercises, all this just for the pleasure of vexing you? Oh, no! It is because it?s indispensable for you to have a frame in which you can learn how to form yourself. If you did your work of individualization, of total formation, by yourself, all alone in a corner, nothing at all would be asked of you. But you don?t do it, you wouldn?t do it, there?s not a single child who would do it, he wouldn?t even know how to do it, where to begin. If a child were not taught how to live, he could not live, he wouldn?t know how to do anything, anything?. If everyone had to go through the whole experience needed for the formation of an individuality, he would be long dead before having begun to live! This is the advantage of those accumulated through centuries ? who have had the experience and tell you, ?Well, if you want to go quickly, to know in a few years what has been learnt through centuries, do this!? Read, learn, study and then, in the material field, you will be taught to do this in this way, that in that way, this again in this way (gestures). Once you know a little, you can find your own method, if you have the genius for it! But first one must stand on one?s own feet and know how to walk. It is very difficult to learn it all alone. It?s like that for everyone. One must from oneself. Therefore, one needs education.
