YES. Education should make every individual independent

YES. Education should make every individual independent, physically and emotionally strong, intellectually alert, and to abide all the rules, systems and regulations around the world. It must make every civilian a good citizen.
As Swami Vivekanand said it must awaken soul and must lead to self-realization. It is possible, 100% possible.
Few Gurukul schools have shown it in the past and made it possible to make every candidate become great at each of above mentioned areas.
It is possible only if everyone in this world become truthful, honest and walks the talk. Otherwise, poverty, greed, corruption will destroy us. Already humanity is on the verge of extinction due to very many reasons, improper education will add fuel to it.
As a Professor I tried to inculcate all these characters in my students since last decade and half and till date 60 students X 13 years = 720 students of mine to whom I taught full length have become what they wanted to be.
Not everyone is Bill Gates (I read his speech on http://www.ie-india.com/), PM or rich and famous, which they think is not everything in life, and hence, they are very much satisfied with their life, with their social status. They are also successful at their work places.
Also, Reforms are possible if Teachers guide selflessly to students.
