Overview

This book thoroughly renews past educational thoughts and teaching methods, standing as a revolutionary and definitive historical epic in the system of education. With this work, the progressive journey of human educational philosophy reaches its culmination, allowing for a moment of rest. The Secularized Five Wisdoms Education System roars like a mighty lion, proclaiming that if the spiritual power of old humanity wishes to undergo a qualitative metamorphosis and evolve into a new form of humanity, education is the sole path, and specifically, only the Secularized Five Wisdoms Education can achieve this feat. Drawing from a multitude of humanistic perspectives (philosophy, religious studies, history, human culture, new technology in artificial intelligence, psychology, spiritual studies, pedagogy, Buddhist studies, etc.), the book exhaustively elaborates and demonstrates the thoughts, teaching methods, universality, and universal value of the Five Wisdoms Education System. It clarifies the specific, holistic content of general knowledge courses and how they methodically step by step realize the two exceptional functions of education - awakening the roots of goodness and wisdom in individuals, thereby ultimately achieving the goal of creating a new humanity. This book is universally applicable to all who are passionate about education and feel a profound sense of mission and responsibility towards it, both professional and non-professional workers alike. It is also suitable for self-taught enthusiasts of educational studies: teachers and related personnel of all school levels, vocational education trainers, adult social educators, community education workers, family educators, and even those involved in end-of-life care guidance.

PW-BooklifeReviewsSamo's debut opens with a call for nothing less than the ""end"" of education in a world that seems ""heading towards destruction."" The apocalyptic language, though, is a method of highlighting the urgency of the author's true project: the transformation of existing educational systems toward an enlightened, more practical, less knowledge-based education that nurtures humanity's ""inherent virtues and wisdom."" Samo proposes new curriculum and techniques rooted in five five ""universally applicable and secular"" ""Wisdoms"" derived from ancient teachings pioneered by the Sramanas, the ascetic Indian sect that gave rise to Jainism and Buddhism. The bulk of this hefty, impassioned treatise explores how these Wisdoms could ""elevate the pinnacle"" of education around the world, how they might be implemented in different nations and cultures, and how if just one to five percent of humanity embraced them the world would be transformed, with ""malevolent forces ... effectively restrained or even enlightened."" As all that suggests, this is heady, ambitious material, and Samo writes with urgency, humanity, and a deep belief in ""universal light"" and the power of the Wisdoms. The Wisdoms include Linguistic Clarity, which refers to ""achieving a state of 'clear and unobstructed' in the abilities of listening, speaking, and writing"" and Medical Insight, which entails understanding of medical conditions ""even surpassing the standards of professional medical practitioners."" (Samo argues that the high percentage of medical students needing eyeglasses points to a need to study this wisdom.) Crucially, study of the final Wisdom-Inner Enlightenment-as well as teaching of the ""ten good deeds"" helps prevent the abuse of the others for ""evil"" purposes. Samo proves persuasive when encouraging an integrated approach between contemporary science and technology and ancient teaching, but claims of a ""correlation between the general mindstate of humanity and climate conditions,"" as exemplified by an explosion of kindness after the 1906 San Francisco earthquake, are unpersuasive, and Samo's argument that an educational system should produce a ""multitude of [Elon] Musks"" will prove contentious. In addition to the important points stated in the review, this book also highlights a prominent theme - the close relationship between the ""schizophrenia"" between the old and the new human beings and the education of the Five Wisdoms. That is to say, the education of the Five Wisdoms can transform the old mankind into a perfect new mankind. This great and noble concept is supported by the book with sound arguments and practical methods.
