Mongolian society has come to its most critical moment. Are Mongolians going to believe in superstition, brainwash themselves and deny their previous life or are they going to give their faith in education and make it meaning of their life?
Why Mongolian person have no faith in education? Why education with goal of telling the truth and teach the right and good failed in Mongolia?
According to Mongolians, education seems to have lost to superstition, whereas the knowledge of humanity isn’t lost to religion and to superstition. Education bears the concept of knowledge and moral. Education is above any religion and superstition. Education limits religion, because religion has no knowledge therefore no cognity. However, religion has the responsibility to destroy superstition, because superstition has no morality.
The reason why Mongolians have no faith in education has a reason. In 1990, hundreds of teachers were fired and school became place of supply and demand, distant from education. Children were thrown to the hell of market. Also, universities started producing fake doctors, teachers and professors. Therefore, all these uneducated, immoral and unknowledgeable people played by superstition.
Science Academy, which supposed to spread true universal knowledge, has become a place which writes projects and embezzles money. The false word “erdemten” destroyed the word knowledge. If you do not know, you have no education. Virtue alone isn’t enough to develop a country. It needs knowledge. Virtue is topic of morality. Knowledge and virtue together are education.
Many people such as historian, writer, culture and tradition researcher, poets from Science Academy and Mongolian National University plus foreign religious organizations became owner of superstition. They spread superstition, not human moral and manipulated people through magic, supernatural, advertising you are destined to be and so on. So called professors and opportunists named monks had become nests of superstition.
Education has no way but to lose when “arga bileg”, aura, energy, byasalgal are united to feed superstition. Additionally, there come the politicians making fire in government palace and putting “khadag” on mountain peak, then it is obvious Mongolians have no where to go. Therefore the last place to reach out must be Court of Morality.
For the last 20 years Constitution Court couldn’t protect human right from superstitious people who made Mongolians commodity of superstition. The fact that so called statesmen indulged and gave prize and titles to people who earned money through deceiving people, played special role in destroyment of education.
Constitution must answer to the question whether Mongolians will chose superstition or education. If Court of Constitution responds with skeptical answer which brings superstition in the same level as education and says such things like truth is relative, then do we actually need universities and schools?
Is Court of Constitution going to take Mongolians before two options? Is it going to tear down the only solution which is education? Court of Constitution is meant to help and support Mongolians to open themselves to education and knowledge, and become human rather they must not throw away people to humiliation of supersititon.
This is the level we reached. Yet what is Court of Constitution doing? Don’t they need morality? 100 years ago Mongolians left superstition and chose education? But today?
Obviously people who are degrading education today, there are always somebody behind. Knowledge institutions including Science Academy and universities couldn’t deliver education to the whole society. Fake doctors and professors give chance to superstitious people; because they are themselves do not have education. No wonder why non-governmental organizations are working for profit when superstitious doctors are lying however they want. This is the proof that institutions like Science Academy and National University, which must spread and produce knowledge, are working wrong.
Making humans a commodity under the principle of supply and demand indicates the violation of human dignity of Constitution and making human being as dead and empty commodity. Is it possible to cruelly use human dignity this way? According to Constitution, shouldn’t they put social interest before personal interest? International legislation teaches any law must be created to protect social interest.
Superstitious parents making young people affected by this plague of social disease is the proof of degration of morality, like always, Mongolians misunderstood human right as their own right and acting out however they want. Why is Court of Constitution which must tell and punish that no one can behave however they want, not doing their moral obligation? Mongolians need Morality Court now.
Of course, faith is personal matter, however showing and advertising your faith by harming people, injuring their intellectual mind, furthermore their physical body, then it is impossible to talk about supply and demand or human right. Banks compensate when someone lose the money they saved. Then superstitious people who caused intellectual trauma must have punishment, too. If it isn’t legislation institutions, then Morality Court must punish them.
Internationally it is simplest action for Morailty Court to announce through media that cheating, ambition, greed, bragging, selfishness, paying money to chase after honor.
Which country considers that winning and damaging each other is the right thing to do? Which country in the world praises people who are deliberately spreading misunderstanding? Which country’s television in the world indulges and provokes people who praises themsemselves, act out as smart infact just saying empty words?
It has been 20 years of tradition, in which people fights among themselves by their personal opinion about moral conflicts arising in society. There are strange tendencies and confusions of fighting and humiliating each other at their home and in street and young and old people cannot fit each other, puts society to the wrong direction.
Of course, Mongolians were not provided by such condition of understanting and analyzing this critical timing. A Mongolian person meets universal knowledge only in last 70 years. All educations came from European countries. Therefore if Mongolians want to talk about education, they must go to Europe and learn from them. You cannot learn anything from Tibet.
The fact that a Mongolian person never had understanding about society and capital proves that they had been living without knowledge for hundreds of years. To live as society and city, everyone needs education. With education man becomes human being. If not, he will remain as animal, because man is born with empty mind like empty bowl. To have mind, it must be filled with education.If it can not be filled up, then at least fill it up in middle, then you have mid education.
To leave superstition behind and to have education, Mongolians reached a difficult timing. This determination must happen in families first. Time has come; there must be truth between parents and children, grandparents and their children. Whose truth is right? Truth of knowledge is right and truth of morality is right.
Official institution of human knowledge is first university. Second biggest knowledge sector is science. Knowledge was created, examined, spread and used in these two places. Furthermore, trade was created and education was made.
Superstition isn’t knowledge. 2500 years ago, with the objective to leave superstition and give liberty and egality to people, true knowledge was defined in philosophy field. Since then humanity is only to trust true and guaranteed things, warned us it is risky and dangerous to trust in empty personal beliefs. Therefore since knowledge was created, academy from Greek and “shkola” were founded.
Academy is discussing highly guranteed knowledge, whereas “shkola” has the goal to teach and make them understand the knowledge. Mongolians are misusing the word academy too wrongly and gave it to superstitious organizations. This word lost its value. On the other hand “shkola”, the ancient word of teaching, was replaced with word “surguuli”, yet private schools were made, therefore its objective to serve the good of public is lost. We don’t need private education, rather public education.
Today Mongolians completely threw away true knowledge sectors such as schools, universities, science, academy, philosophy, which have mission of universal epystomology. Plus, they destroyed its value, responsibility and morality. Therefore public is sinking in superstition and today everyone is seeking some kind of solution. Here I didn’t write against someone, rather I’m warning.
I’m warning, not preventing because I don’t work for state. I sit and write at my home. I went to National University of Mongolia and University of Art to teach students about peak subjects of universal knowledge, because they said they have no one to read lectures and I’m a philosopher happy to deliver lectures to the students. Philosophers from thousand years ago tell his words to his people and to teach and warn them. I will say what these people created from my home, through newspaper and television. If someone is manipulating, humiliating and degrading people with the promise to make them rich by getting rich himself then I will warn it and not afraid to mention and repeate their names
Why I didn’t prevent, because I’m not statesman, I’m not someone getting paid salary by taking responsibility from the state, therefore I will never work as state representative. I’m a philosopher keeping universal knowledge and I live writing what I want to tell by holding on to morality and education. Philosophers created today’s theory of state by saying, writing and working for years after years. Therefore if a Mongolian wants to talk about state, it means he needs to talk about topic of philosophy.
It has been philosophers who created concepts such as Constitution, furthermore democracy, liberty and equality. Knowledge first came from philosophy. A philosopher wanted to know first. He wanted to know the truth. Knowledge derived from philosophy got refined and became profession. Today we are naming them physics, chemistry, math or sociology, psychology, furthermore art and cultural study. This is the history of knowledge.
Then when did a Mongolian person learn history of knowledge? When was it that a Mongolian person provided with the chance to separate them from superstition? A Mongolian person met with education from school, university, science institution to academy, library even book shelf only during socialism, and which was just a life time of single human being.
It is not our fault that a Mongolian had to learn to in short amount of time, rather it was a historical process. We did not have the chance to learn universal knowledge and education earlier. Therefore we shouldn’t forget that we have been living by superstition until socialism. There are facts of Tibet and Manchus who hold up Mongolians by a weapon called superstition.
In the time of no development, superstition was useful. But in a developed country, it is a block. Today it is harm to Mongolians who are trying to develop and move forward. Today it became almost as criminal, therefore I’m writing to warn about it.
I’m someone who lives once in Mongolia. But this country will live further. Knowledge and education are worth more than anything to this country’s future. Living without knowledge and education mean getting played by other people. However not everyone is obliged to have high education and knowledge. Rather highly knowledgeable more people who warn the public is what we need. They lead the society. Such people are called intellectuals. And of course, this concept is also filled with superstition today.
Why am I asking about will superstition win or knowledge win? Because this question derived from the history of lives we lived until today. Why a Mongolian today has no work other than watching TV? Why work is destroyed? Because people without work doubt their life, creating fights with people around them and provoking madness named politic, of course superstition will boom times like this.
Education also has come at time of decision. Is it going to give up to superstition? Is a Mongolian person going to run away from humanity’s knowledge and education by surviving with “zuir ug”? Or is he going to become his own subject by catching the hard and difficult thing called knowledge and education and create himself?
Why is a Mongolian person not creating himself, rather being someone’s product? Why is he evading his failure with empty words like nomad?
In the end, institutions such as Science Academy and National University don’t protect and prosper knowledge and education, and then we should ask, do we even need them? Shouldn’t they announce that they are not place of truth and change their name to some kind of school?
During socialism, although they were executing international practices under morality and ethic, value of humanity such as discipline, order, greeting and acceptance were destroyed under the name of democracy. Renewing them isn’t remains of socialism, rather international practices. Why it is that Mongolians firmly follow moral and ethical rules in Europe and Asian countries like Japan, Korea, but in their home country act so wildly?
Specially those who came from graduating in America or studying master in Germany or doctor in Japan immediately lose their ethics and act rudely seems like no indication of education. If they can firmly follow moral rules in those countries, then why couldn’t they show a good example and help the possibility of creating human life in their homeland? This time I didn’t mention the name of young people who said they graduated from America, Germany and Japan. Next time I do not mind calling their names. It is nothing to mention few names for the sake of society.
Education isn’t just profession of mathematics or linguistics. Education is knowing yourself. To know yourself, you need someone who also learned himself. Therefore we must ask who is this educated person and creating educated people. Who is giving knowledge to who?
We cannot answer these questions, because how can people who go after fake doctoral title and money can be knowledgeable? Fake people will write and translate fake and wrong books. So it is very good timing to superstitious people take advantage of the society and prospers, isn’t it?
To tell the truth, Science Academy and National Universities are unable to spread universal knowledge, people there, believe that there is no such thing as truth. Yet internet is from true knowledge and smartphone is from true knowledge. Constitution is truth from philosophy. Democracy is truth from philosophy.
Man is born with body, but he isn’t given a mind. Then how to keep and use this ungiven mind? What happens when uneducated mind is used? In steppe, it might be possible to use it, but in city of Ulaanbaatar, you can not. Ulaanbaatar isn’t collection of rural or monasteries. Ulaanbaatar must be center of culture, art, knowledge and education.
How can a Mongolian person become a wholesome human being? Does he have the chance? What a big confusion it is to see god wrongly, without understanding himself and the world and not accepting death?
Education isn’t market like demand exists there is supply. Education must be responsibility given through Constitution. Education must be mission of the state. All actions against it must be crime.
There are no intellectuals and enlighteners today; therefore there is no institution of intellectuals and enlightenment. Everybody is living towards mining. Wealthy people from foreign countries and domestically produced riches talk about only mining. Both foreigners and locals broke the behavior of Mongolians.
What is the behavior of a Mongolian today? Is he as same as he was born or is he better educated than he was born?
Mongolians need to understand that we are in problem of philosophy. It is time. To talk about education means talking about knowledge and morality, yet knowledge derived from epystomology. Epystomology is from philosophy. Moral is from ethic. Yet ethic is from philosophy.
Superstition is lost globally, so the time for education to win in the life of a Mongolian person must also come. If superstition wins education, children and young people will lose, too.
