00:00Many strange things are happening globally and locally, many very painful things. There are people close to me, but we have
00:09that move forward.
00:11And I wanted to focus first on children, on students, on young people.
00:18I myself come from a generation where we didn't know what we were going to do with our lives, we didn't know what
00:24We were going to study, but we didn't know how we were going to pay for our studies.
00:27That's why we're like this in life, and when you're like this you don't know what to do.
00:32And many of these things that I fight against and denounce, such as the high levels of drug addiction in
00:40In my country, there are high levels of aggression; many people have guns.
00:46This friend who lost his 28-year-old son, did not lose him due to natural causes, he was murdered.
00:55So, what are we going to do?
00:59Are we supposed to wait for the world's constitutions to change, for new presidents to come into power, for churches to come into being?
01:08I don't know what we're going to do, I know what I'm going to do, and I'm going to share it with you.
01:13So, all the people who need to take their children out of the system, whether because they find it stupid to pay, no
01:21I know, it's a lot of money for children to study from home,
01:24and with an absolutely unnatural education, spending eight hours or many hours in front of the computer.
01:30No.
01:30This also includes online classes, certainly, but it's a much kinder, much more human thing.
01:37They are made by a man who comes from the slums of India,
01:42and who earned three doctorates at MIT, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology,
01:49I believe it is the most powerful technology university on the planet, in mathematics, computing and electronic engineering.
01:56And he created a method for the people in his neighborhoods, in the town where he came from, so that they could
02:02learn.
02:04And then they gradually added more material as they got older, well,
02:08when they were little children, until they were teenagers, until they were young adults.
02:14And a method emerged worldwide, which many people have studied, and in fact I left some testimonials there, and
02:23It is powerful.
02:26I had brought this; I once wanted to learn jazz.
02:29I went to the jazz club in Santiago, and I found myself surrounded by people like that, who wouldn't give me a ticket, they wouldn't let me in.
02:35gave...
02:36I tried to go with my guitar, I wanted to... No.
02:40They slammed the doors in my face. I tried to ask, but no.
02:44So I came across this, which was a method for learning jazz with Jamie Ebersold.
02:49I said, okay, I'm going to learn on my own.
02:51And I started studying, and what do I know.
02:53And interestingly, here in this method, I don't remember on which page, but at the beginning,
02:58He spoke of the importance of another book, which was called The Autobiography of a Yogi,
03:04which is this, by Paramahansa Yogananda.
03:07And here inside, Paramahansa Yogananda speaks of his encounter with Ravindranath Tagore.
03:14There it is.
03:15He was a Nobel Prize winner for literature whom I met years ago, in '96.
03:20I bought all of his work, studied all his books, fell in love with...
03:26And he spoke of Ravindranath, he spoke of how he met his grandfather,
03:30And he said to him, "Look son, the most important thing in this world is the education of children, to educate him."
03:37And he told her, have an open-air school, outdoors, with oxygen, with trees,
03:43And call your school Santiniquetan, which means place of peace.
03:47That's the best contribution you can make to people: to educate them.
03:54Today all of this turned me upside down, it was turning me upside down.
03:56I also remembered the famous president Pedro Aguirre Cerda, a descendant of Alfonso X.
04:01All those with the surname Cerda come from Alfonso X the Wise, who said that to govern is to educate.
04:08I remembered Alfonso X himself, who went and said, no, here we have to educate people, from a very young age.
04:13The first three years are the most important in education; from birth until the third year is crucial.
04:18that.
04:20Well, obviously I'll be thinking about the coming years too, but the first few years are the most important.
04:24And we find that the parents are not well educated.
04:27So, parents will also find a guide in these links that I'll mention at the end.
04:33parents.
04:34And it's super fun to review math again, it really is fun.
04:38By the way, these free courses that I'm going to leave don't just cover primary and elementary instruction.
04:46There are courses taught by 200 universities, 200 from all over the world.
04:52Courses in all languages, to learn anything.
04:56In fact, there is a course at the Autonomous University of Mexico that any young man or any man can take.
05:01If there is a grown man listening to me, he can learn everything about how to build a house.
05:07All in a couple of months.
05:09From the foundations, from how to do the bathroom installations, from how to do the electrical installations.
05:14And it's all free.
05:16There is also a course offered by the Catholic University of Chile that deals with robotics.
05:21which has to do with a system called Arduino, which is open-source hardware, hardware that...
05:27It's like the Star Wars movie.
05:29When the movie begins, it's in a desert-like place,
05:33And there are some things that one can measure, like air humidity, or one can measure magnesium.
05:38It's robotics.
05:39I'm not going to explain this, because many people have no idea about this.
05:42But it's free.
05:43All courses are free.
05:45There is a free psychology course called Psychological First Aid.
05:48which is provided by the university...
05:51A famous Spanish university.
05:53It's also free.
05:54All courses are free.
05:55There are courses in art, history, and geography.
05:58There are advanced courses.
05:59They are all made by the best universities in the world.
06:02Free.
06:03Gratuitous.
06:04But if you need the diploma, after you take the exams, as required,
06:09You have to pay around $100.
06:11All courses last between one and four months maximum.
06:15These aren't courses like studying surgery, no.
06:19But these are courses, as several wise men have said, that can be studied and learned perfectly well.
06:24As I said, you can even learn to build a house.
06:27There are many nutrition courses, and there are other courses that have to do with health.
06:31All subjects of human knowledge are included.
06:33Already.
06:34So, in this strange situation we are experiencing,
06:36where there are many people who are not having a good time,
06:39Where there are countries like France, France means free.
06:42Here comes Franco, Franquicia, or the name Francisco.
06:45They are not so free.
06:47Things are strange.
06:50Let us focus on the education of our people.
06:52Education will set us free.
06:54He freed the Greeks.
06:56The most influential people in the spiritual world and the world of literature say the same thing.
07:01The wisest kings on the planet have focused on the same thing.
07:04I can speak for the presidents of my country.
07:05There have been presidents who have made powerful changes simply by changing education.
07:09So we're going to do the same.
07:12I'm letting you know then that there is free education for everyone.
07:15Free education of the highest quality.
07:18Much higher than what I studied and what you studied, surely.
07:23There is a highly awarded Chilean who died last year, Claudio Naranjo, a psychiatrist, doctor, and pianist as well.
07:30He said that one can learn 50 times more and 50 times faster with the right method.
07:35Well, I've given you the right method to learn from scratch, from a person who arrives on this planet until...
07:41He has a free second year of university.
07:43All subjects.
07:44And with a guide for parents and teachers.
07:46And I also left the link for these 200 universities, for courses in all languages.
07:53There are language courses, in fact.
07:55These are interactive courses with videos.
07:58I've already seen them.
08:00And they are wonderful.
08:02So what we're going to do, while others are fighting to, I don't know, change the political world.
08:10Well, whether that works or not, this is going to work 100%.
08:16We will each take responsibility for our own education and the education of our children.
08:22Of course, in places like Chile, once a child studies at home, with friends, with neighbors,
08:27with the cousins, with the...
08:29Ah, all of this can be studied at different levels at the same time.
08:32They have to take free exams.
08:35And that depends on each country; there are government institutions where one can take those free exams.
08:40I have the case of two nieces of mine who studied that way.
08:44In fact, they used to meet at the house of the daughter of Gastón Soblete, who is a Chilean sage.
08:51He's like a Gandalf of Chile.
08:53She charged people money because she gave them food, or whatever.
08:57And she was in charge of being the monitor, the guide.
08:59And one of them was a national score.
09:02Here in Chile, a test is done once a year.
09:04And with that test they can access, well, I want to study this or that.
09:08And for the most delicate professions, such as medicine, they are the highest scores.
09:13Well, she got the highest score.
09:15And that works perfectly, it works 100%.
09:18It's completely free.
09:20So all the people who are thinking about how they are going to handle their children's education,
09:24If the system keeps getting dark, it doesn't matter.
09:27Don't worry about anything, we'll take care of it, we're the older brothers.
09:31We need to give you the links and you can share them freely; this is completely free.
09:36Okay, see you later.
