Printed books are used, but mostly for the very young, as information
is usually transmitted impressionally.

Education on Mars begins at the mother's knee. The first knowledge
imparted to the young is Spiritual. The first lessons given to the
child are: One's absolute dependence on God, and that the few years
before the individual are but an unfoldment, or an individualizing of
the entity into a separate and distinct unit.

The Spiritual lessons are amplified as the child grows and grasps these
truths. This procedure continues until the pupil is ready to enter an
institution of learning.

THE HOME IS THE PRIMARY SCHOOL, JUST AS A PHYSICAL EXISTENCE ON A
PLANET IS THE KINDERGARTEN OF A NEVER-ENDING LIFE. THE PARENTS ARE THE
FIRST TEACHERS.

The primary education consists, as already said, in lessons on the
necessity of expressing God in our lives in truth and righteousness in
order that the mind of the individual be so moulded and fashioned that
absolute faith is placed in God's promises through the Master, Christ.

The keynote to the education of the individual is that one must first
seek God's Kingdom, and that all knowledge and wisdom, which is the
Divine Heritage of all, will be easily attained: and that coming into a
knowledge of God means health, happiness and wisdom.

After the individual has grasped the primary lessons, which result in
an unfoldment of the spirit within, he is then sent to a school; but a
school system different from anything you have on your Earth. The task
of the teacher is, not to teach knowledge but to assist in bringing out
what is already latent in the soul, rather than a set routine, for
every individual is considered a master in some line of thought and
activity. The pupil is led into knowledge instead of being taught
directly.

The individual is left to his own tastes and volition. The harmony of
music of God's laws, which embrace Astronomy, Physics and of Life,
together with a knowledge of the laws of Electricity, is especially
brought to the attention of the individual. You of the Earth know as
yet very little concerning the true nature of Electricity. Your
methods of handling and generating this wonderful force are crude
indeed, by comparison with the deep knowledge attained on Mars with the
subject.

And so with the study and development of the Harmony of Music, we of
Mars have developed a high spiritual sense, and are able to hear and
see many intermediat
