Acharya Prashant critiques the modern education system for producing technologically advanced tools like missiles while failing to address the confusion within human beings. He argues that current education neglects essential life skills, such as decision-making, understanding what is truly important, and managing thoughts and emotions. Despite people spending significant time thinking about success, satisfaction, attachment, love, and conflict, the education system provides no guidance on these fundamental aspects of human existence. This deficiency results in a lack of maturity and an increase in violence and mental ailments globally.
