Four Building Blocks of Nurture Education
Universal Values
•
 Spiritual education is more important than material education. It says internal makeup of a child matters more than his external makeup. A tree is only as strong as its roots. Less emphasis should be placed on being smart, more on being good.
•
 Process is more important than the end result. It matters for example, children learn to do everything with perfection and beauty than rush through school's coursework whichever way.
Global Understanding
•
 Children must become leaders, cooperative workers and job providers, not just followers, competitors and job seekers. Both leadership training and cooperation must be part of the new educational process.
•
 hildren must show reverence for all forms of life and things.
•
 Reverence must be taught as a direct objective of education. We are part of one global ethos.
Service to Humanity
•
 Children must develop a sense of empathy and kindness towards all peoples of the world and those less privileged than themselves.
•
 Education must prepare children to see their work as worship and service. Service must not be viewed as an occasional act of charity.
•
 Instead, service must become a way of life. Money is seen as a by-product of the good work, earned well through hard work and not an entitlement or the ultimate goal.
