The heart is referred to as hrudaya (hrud + daya = hrudaya), meaning that the heart is the seat of daya or compassion. The head, on the other hand, can be the source of conflict and confusion. Real education is that which fosters virtue, morality, truth, compassion, discipline, and duty. It is not enough to be merely intelligent. You may be very clever but so is the fox! So, just becoming clever is not the purpose of education. What education must confer is wisdom that flows from the heart and not just knack or cunningness. Let your heart alone be your guide, especially while dealing with others, no matter where or when.
