About the Trust
Capuchin Education Board - Committed to enlightenment through education
There is only one Education, and it has only one goal: the freedom of the mind. Anything that needs an adjective, be it civics education, or socialist education, or Christian education, or whatever-you-like education, is not education in the general sense, as it can have different goals. The very existence of modified "educations" is testimony to the fact that their proponents cannot bring about what they want in a mind that is free.
The words of the underground Grammarian, Mr. Richard Mitchell, is in place and power in it. The inspiring and outgoing desire, the burning bush flame and the heart throbbing impulses of the concerned and to be corned of the periphery or the cry of the outer ring of the society was an awakening timely call to the capuchins of the Holy Trinity Province to hanker into their boat into the education field. The fruit of the long-awaited wish of the millions of the society and the distant dream of our elders emerged in the four walls of the schools. The beauty and the mind meet in the capuchin education board.
Our Motto
jnanenaiva vimuktih
"Indeed, Liberation is through enlightenment"
As the temporal, mundane existence is characterized by the experience of bondage (samsara) ignorance (avidya) and pain (duhkha), the eminent sages and prophets have propagated means to alleviate oneself from the above negative experiences of human existence, and fill life with hope and joy. The fullness of existence is characterised by Liberation attained through true knowledge, which is an experience of enlightenment.
