| Imagination - its usage and control - in Education

In fact, for education, people should always encourage both tendencies side
by side: the thirst for the Marvelous, the seemingly unrealizable, for something that fills you with a sense of divinity, while at the same time
encouraging, in the perception of the world as it is, an exact, correct and
sincere observation, the abolition of all imaginings, a constant control, and a most practical and meticulous feeling for exactness in details. Both
tendencies should go side by side. Generally, people kill one with the idea
that it's necessary in order to develop the other - which is totally erroneous.
The two can coexist, and as knowledge grows, a moment comes when you understand that they are two aspects of the same thing, namely, a clear
vision, a superior discernment. But instead of the vision and discernment being limited and narrow, they become absolutely sincere, correct, exact -
AND immense, embracing an entire field that's not yet part of the concrete Manifestation.
This is very important from an educational point of view

Soar ever higher, ever farther, without fear or hesitation!
The hopes of today are the realisations of tomorrow.
