The educational process is practiced in a reversed way in our Third World, i.e., we are concerned with conclusions before we realize preludes, and we talk about punishment before we encourage incentives. This is a reversed equation. The first step we should begin with in educating man is to make faith and doctrine deeply rooted in his heart.
When doctrine and faith are fixed firmly within the interior of man, good manners are produced. Consequently, behavior becomes righteous like flourishing and fruitful orchards. Fruit trees are lopped only when they need lopping, so is the case with man. The stage of speaking about penalty should be discussed only when man becomes in urgent need for punishment.
