the real education
Education a most important part of our life, from the day we are born, our journey of this life starts, day by day, time by time we start our education of learning things, we learn how to eat, we learn how to walk, we learn everything, we humans are the only conscious beings on this earth, that means only we can see things and experience what is real. We have ability to imagine, we have ability to think. We have ability to create new things, no other living things can do it, we may be less powerful physically than other animals. But our mental power is the strongest in this planet and using this we now reached to a greater success. A better and healthy life and now we are able to control all the other species on this earth. And all this become possible because of our education, we made this world by seeking, seems like everything is very well done, do you think everything is well done in your life or with all human being’s life? Your answer will be no. even today we have everything, we may have easy life than our ancestors, we may have a comfortable and everything we want we can do by just staying in our homes. But still we are suffering more and more. Today we have everything, but we are not that happy and peaceful, our minds are more cluttered. Our minds are more unhealthy, our body and desires are increasing day by day and we are harming the nature. So what’s wrong? And the answer is education. Education is the reason that gives us greater success and the education is the reason why humans are suffering more today because of their lack of knowledge, today’s education system wants you to teach everything about the outer world but today’s education system doesn’t teach you about who you are, today you may know about how far is the sun from the earth but you don’t know how far you are for yourself and how far is your peace from you. Today education teach you how to be a slave. Education to be a employee, an indefinite world where everything is fine, just read more and more and gain your knowledge and apply them in your life. Today you may know how to make more and more money but you don’t know what to do with it and how to be happy in life. No one know what he/she really wants, when a human born he was a wet clay from the day he born, and education makes or transform you into a sculpture. It is depend on the education you take that you would be a good sculpture of a bad sculpture, your education define you would be able to face the storms of life or you will be fade away with the storms that you will face in your life. But many people get fade away with this storms of life without knowing that they have been faded. Or destroyed in that storms , from the day you are born everyone wants to teach you something, they wants you to become what they can’t be. They put morality in your mind what is right and what is wrong. What you like and what you don’t, which country is bad and which country is good. And today education become almost like a propaganda which wants to show you and tell you that your religion is good, your country is best and you are secure. Education puts you in a big deep well and shouted loudly whole life that this is the world , this is the world, and you do, you just see the wells and run around that well all your life and died. This well have walls and they are money, religion. Your country and many more elements but in all this they never teach you who you are and what is the purpose of this society, what truly religion is, what to do with the life you are living and what really everything is. I just want to ask you a simple question. Do you know yourself totally? If yes than why you try to find security and power every time? Why you are afraid of being alone? A person who knows himself never try to find security and power because he/she knows he is already powerful have all freedom to live and he life his life with fully attention. Do you know how a person became when he is in fully attention mode of fully wake , no thoughts just work, when a person know himself, than there is no thoughts remain, what are thoughts? Thoughts are either past or future, or desires that is not fulfilled and you imagine, you start imagination, to fill fulfilled, you start imaging because you haven’t experienced it and some people say that desire will give you happiness and peace and all this come when you have no desires or you are satisfied with you are or you just completed a desires. Peace come when you have no desire and no thoughts and you start imagination that I am accomplishing this or I will accomplish this, a read educated person who knows himself never trust anything or anyone until he himself experienced it. And the first key of education is to see yourself, with no thought, thoughts have their own significance but in knowing yourself you must not think, and you will be wise from the day you will know yourself. And no one is going to tell you how to know yourself, we love things that helps us to stop our imagination, and that things are some work , when we are working we don’t think because our minds get busy on that work. Or in sex. In sex , you feel timeless ness, you feel in that situation there is no thought, there is no ego. There is no more you just your energy is flowing from your body. And we love that that’s why world is crazy of this feeling of sex. Now the question is how to stop thinking, even I don’t know this. Because I have never reached at that state but I read some books and I feel they may be right, they say when you are thinking you can see the thought than the person who is seeing the thought is you. Or when you do a work include yourself fully on that work focus on that work and keep doing it, this will help you to know yourself without thoughts. I'm not saying that we should never think but at least once in day you must be without thoughts and imagination is our great power and it is created by you that you should not create suffering from it because it's yours, and you should control it, you should use it in your favour, this is your slave , you should not be slave of your thoughts, educate yourself, and know yourself and the day you will know yourself you will be able to control yourself totally
Thanks. You have expressed my thoughts very well. That is why it is necessary to meditate in order to feel not conditioned, trying not to identify yourself with your thoughts. Just watch their appearance and disappearance from the side. This is a great art. And the highest skill is to maintain such a state not only during meditation, but also in everyday life. Did I understand correctly?
