Episode 28 - Education

Talk given in Liverpool, UK, circa 1960. 

"Can we in-fact put information into a child, other than that which its physical level allows it to do?" 

In short, yes, this can be done...but it is not advisable. If we put information into a child that does not correspond with its physical performance or experience, and that information is, therefore, not put into action, it will operate as a poison within the organism. In trying to educate a child beyond the level at which their body can respond, we are sewing the seeds of future trouble. In fact, the increase in schizophrenia and similar mental disorders that we see today are a consequence of attempting to accelerate mental content beyond the capacity of the body to actualise it. 

Eugene discusses this process and how we can maintain our organism in correspondence with reality.
