Education is the bedrock for all civilized life. But proper education begins with the simple, yet absolutely vital question: Why was I created? And the answer is: “I was created to serve my Creator” – to be an emissary of G-d, “Whose way is peace” and “Whose name is Peace” – to promote peace and unity throughout the world.
