Just as ～，so ・・・

 Just as it is vital for parents to live their own lives as fully as possible and to deepen their understanding of themselves to the utmost, so it is important for teachers and educators to do the same. 

「両親ができる限り充実した自分自身の生活を送り自己理解を極限まで深めることが極めて重要であるのと全く同様に，教師と教育者にとってもこれと同じことを行うことが大切である。」

vital = very important
