教育具有五個面貌：

1.      資訊：我們通常認為資訊就是教育，但這只是教育的一面罷了。

2.      觀念：觀念是一切研究的基礎，我們需要孕育（觀念）而後方能創造。

3.      態度：教育的整體面在培養正確的態度。你的行動與行為取決於你在適當的時間與地點所採用的正確的態度。

4.      想像力：想像力對於創造、藝術是重要的。然而如果沈溺於想像的話，你就有精神病了。

5.      自由：自由是你的根本本性。唯有擁有自由，喜悅、慷慨、與其他的人性價值才會綻放。假如缺乏自由，態度就會僵化，觀念就會成為一種負擔，資訊就沒有價值，而想像也變得迂腐。

Education has five aspects

1. Information -- Often we think information is education, but it is only one aspect of education.

2. Concepts -- Concepts are the basis for all research. You need to conceive in order to create.

3. Attitude -- An integral aspect of education is cultivating the right attitude. Proper attitude at the right time and place determines your actions and behavior.

4. Imagination -- Imagination is essential for creativity, for the arts. But if you get stuck in imagination, you may become psychotic.

5. Freedom -- Freedom is your very nature. Only with freedom, do joy, generosity and other human values blossom. Without freedom, attitudes become stifling, concepts become a burden, information is of no value and imagination becomes stagnant.
