How to be wise

@bejapuskas But are you being forced to watch Leo’s videos? No. Every week you go on YouTube and click on his video. He extended his hand, and you also extended your hand to reach his. It has to come from both ways. If someone doesn’t want something from you, you will have two options: wait or leave. Forcing it onto the person will not work, because they are not ready for it.

@Nahm As I said previously, they have no interest in learning of any kind. And that’s good. I want for them what they want for themselves.

@bejapuskas Again, this ranges from school to school. In your school, I see that teaching will be possible, but in some schools it isn’t. The children are not getting enough play time at home, so they don’t have the willingness to pursue more complex thinking.

@Nahm It’s a difference of community to community. A stage blue community will force their children to do religious work at home, whilst stage orange and green are more carefree. As a result, the children from the blue community are frustrated whilst the stage orange/green child is happy to learn. In my class, both communities are present, so I can easily see the difference, but more of them are from the blue communities. Of course, since the majority of the class is playing, even the orange/green kids will want to play as well.

@bejapuskas If I came to any school, and asked the kids “What do you want to do now?” how many of them will say “We want to learn.” Very few. Most of them will run to the playground, which tells you what they want.

@Nahm The amount of freedom they have at home. Some parents give their children a very tight schedule, so they don’t have time to enjoy themselves. Others have less busy lives, so they have surplus energy to do more complex things. As was said in the spiral dynamics book, people need surplus energy to awaken a new meme. If they are too busy, then they won’t have the time to contemplate alternative ways.

Conscious teachers are those that don’t force lessons on children. If children want to learn, they teach. If children don’t want to learn, they let them do what they want. Depending on the school you’re in, you will either be teaching more if a lot of kids want to learn, or just sit and do nothing if nobody wants to learn.

10-12 years old.

It usually depends on the school. For example, in the school I go to the children have close to 0% desire to learn, so I just let them do their things. If I was in a school where children want to learn 70%, then I would take your approach. The action step of the teacher usually depends on the environment you’re in, and how the kids are.

@Anton_Pierre Maybe focus on emotional mastery and embodiment.

@Emerald The world is full of opportunities and money, as long as you don’t have an idea about how it should look like.

Maths, reading and language, although this phenomenon applies throughout the school and education system. Strangely enough, I haven’t been fired yet. To actually fire someone is a huge decision, And that’s another distraction, in my teaching experience. Some children just don’t want to learn. The end. A conscious teacher would be available to students who want to learn, but he won’t impose his lessons on the children no matter how interesting it might seem. That’s why I never ‘lecture’ the students. I just sit in the front and tell them that if they have any questions, I will answer them. Otherwise they do their own thing. And I almost never get any questions.

The truth of infinity is: reality appears to go on forever, but actually it doesn’t.

@Leo Gura Can I ask what happened to this week’s video?

@StarStruck Research a variety of spiritual techniques, try them out then pick the one that suits you. It’s very important that you pick the one that really resonates with you, because all the spiritual results will come from that.

@outlandish I’m not talking about the drug’s danger, but the danger of getting caught with it. If it’s legal then fine, but if it’s illegal then you’re putting yourself in danger because you think that the psychedelic will give you something. I disagree. The psychedelic can’t give you what you don’t have.

@Shadowraix Breaking the law to chase an experience is rather unconscious. Even if that experience may somehow grow you. Hope you realise this before it’s too late.

@outlandish Psychedelics are illegal in most countries. Don’t take that risk. There are legal ways of achieving self annihilation.

@StarStruck self annihilation. Take up a spiritual practice to experience them.

@Leo Gura do you not agree that the world is an illusion, only happening in our minds? The starving children in Africa are just images in your mind. They don’t exist in a material world.

@Leo Gura Finally you’ve come round to it. How many times did I say this? And you labelled me a zen devil. Well, at least you understand now. That’s good.

@Leo Gura On your blog?

@DrewNows Rather than trying to run away from it, why don’t you use this suffering to increase your consciousness. All you need is the intention. Next time you're suffering, make the intention that this suffering will increase my consciousness. You will grow a lot from this. It’s called conscious suffering. It might even be a spiritual technique.

@Conrad There is a relative if you’re in the illusion.

@Leo Gura At least the audios are safe.
