universities & colleges

Today practically everyone is getting a college education. But what is taught at these colleges? Mostly technical knowledge, which is śūdra education. You cannot engage a bull in the business of a horse, nor can you engage a horse in the business of a bull. Today practically everyone is getting a college education. But what is taught at these colleges? Mostly technical knowledge, which is sūdra education. Real higher education means learning Vedic wisdom. This is meant for the brahmanas. Alone, sūdra education leads to a chaotic condition. Everyone should be tested to find out which education he is suited for. Some sūdras may be given technical education, but most sūdras should work on the farms. Because everyone is coming to the cities to get an education, thinking, "We can get more money," the agriculture is being neglected. Now there is scarcity because no one is engaged in producing nice foodstuffs. All these anomalies have been caused by bad government. It is the duty of the government to see that everyone is engaged according to his natural qualities. Then people will be happy.
