To Parents and Teachers

This booklet contains Krishnamurti’s Introduction to Life Ahead, wherein he says:

Perhaps the greatest difficulty the educator has to face is the indifference of parents to a wider and deeper education.  Most parents are concerned only with the cultivation of some superficial knowledge which will secure their children respectable positions in a corrupt society.  So the educator not only has to educate the children in the right way, but also to see to it that the parents do not undo whatever good may have been done at the school.  Really the school and the home should be joint centres of right education.
