Knowing Money & Unnatural Learning

 

Knowing, Money & Unnatural Learning

In this blog, i am looking at who i really am and the role of money & information in learning 

Forgiving Myself

I forgive myself that i have accepted and allowed myself to believe that learning is about knowing 

I forgive myself that i have accepted and allowed myself to believe that knowing equals spending money

I forgive myself that i have accepted and allowed myself to believe that without money i cannot learn

I forgive myself that i have accepted and allowed myself to not question the way things are being taught and how much they cost

I forgive myself that i have accepted and allowed myself to fear the high cost of learning 

I forgive myself that i have accepted and allowed myself to feel sorry that the poor cannot go to school

I forgive myself that i have accepted and allowed myself to desire to be born to another set of parents with a lot more money than my mom and dad so i can enroll in a better school or institution

I forgive myself that i have accepted and allowed myself to suppress myself by not standing up and challenging the way information is being transferred from one person to another based on separation 

I forgive myself that i have accepted and allowed myself to think that the quality of education depends upon the amount of money i pay for the course - the higher the better, and feel sorry i cannot pay the high fees, where the real meaning of who i am, money & information is lost

I forgive myself that i have accepted and allowed myself to believe that if i i finish a course  and passed that course i have truly learnt the subject matter

I forgive myself that i have accepted and allowed myself to lose my commonsense while being taught in a course by someone else who tells me what to do, where and when to do it

I forgive myself that i have accepted and allowed myself to learn in an unnatural setting and suppress myself in the process

Commitment to Correction

When and as i see myself believing that learning is about knowing, i stop - i breathe. I realize this is me trying to get something  that will increase my value based on how much knowledge i have and how much money i have 

Rather than see that learning is about practical application and commonsense

I commit myself to see what learning really is 

I commit myself to see what practical application really is and how commonsense plays a role in that in my life and in this world
