Defect in modern education

What is knowledge ? Is it a philosophy of existence or a source of becoming wise? Or spiritual ?
There are  various branches for one to gain knowledge - medical study of body, study of the mind, and the spiritual knowledge. We do not say mechanics or electronics are not the branches or departments of knowledge. But out of all the departments of knowledge, which department encourages you to gain self- knowledge? It is only the scientific knowledge about the soul. And  the present education system fails miserably to provide this knowledge leaving the souls baffled and mystified.
What then is this science of self? when we look at ourselves, we know that once upon a time, we were a child. Through changes, we have grown to become adults. Our bodies have changed, but the soul is unchanged. We will be identified as the same person now as when we were a  child. No body can deny that we are some different person after we have grown up. We may not talk foolishly as grown ups, unlike we did when we were small. Do we ? What then has brought about these changes in us, that though we are the same person, yet different after we have grown. It is the development of consciousness along with the changes in the body that makes us a different person. We have changed because of the circumstances. We were not doctors, teachers or scientists when we were a child. But we are trained in the respective fields to become one. And we are changed.
When we die, our body releases the soul to accept another form or body. And after the growth of seven months inside the womb, the body of the child asks the lord to release him from the bondage of his mother to grow independently to become His devotee. Consciousness of the Lord is there with birth. This consciousness of God is the real scientific knowledge. Human soul has evolved from all the other forms of life - plant, fish, insect , bird.. and finally the human form is evolved. Can we evolve further? why and why not ?
There is this spiritual evolution that takes us beyond the evolutionary cycle of birth and death....
