Studying holistic education is leaving the darkness and enter light Ramon Gallegos Nava. This cuatrilogia is developed on the basis of four books he has written on holistic education Dr. Ramon Gallegos, pioneer and creator of this model among others. Who in 1992 established the International Foundation for holistic education, in order to disseminate this new educational paradigm both in Mexico and internationally. With this essay we propose to offer a vision of what holistic education to be a clear idea of its principles and assumptions, likewise, assess the need that there is currently a paradigm shift that will help us to reorient education according to the new needs that require a comprehensive education to form human beings with a planetary consciousness, with a vision of peace, love, intelligence and spirituality. The four books that comprise this work are as follows: the spirit of education, an Integral Vision of education, Pedagogy of Universal love, life and peace education. THE spirit of education the this first book, the spirit of education shows that change is giving in the current educational environment, of how the fragmentation will be all, presents a model multilevel-multidimencional of education holistic for 21st century society. So we can say that the development of holistic education is an evolutionary process of the kosmos-moving from the fisiosfera Biosphere from here to the noosphere, then get to the teosfera.

The fisiosfera, is the material stage where there is no consciousness of self-reference. The biosphere appears life, pre-humana life, evolution of human beings even before homo sapiens. The Noosphere is the self-referral consciousness, thinks likewise and be autorreferencia, appears the language, consciousness, human thought and mind. Here deny transcendence and spirituality. The teosfera, is the centrality of intelligence, deep knowledge of our real spirituality. So that the work of the education holistic is to bring the humanity of the noosferica to the teosferica stage, by which all peoples and societies have a yearning for spirituality.
