making my life porpuse real

8 posts in this topic

i have almost done the life purpose course ,i understand that my life purpose is about sharing insights,but now i have a big dilemma .

one the one hand, if this is my purpose so i think that i need to learn philosophy in univesity and get a professor there and later my work will look like a very high level because of my degree.

but on the other hand going to univesity would delay my work and my practices ( meditation, yoga) to get all the insights and i would learn tons of unnecessary meterials .

 

what is the better way?

Not at all. I would delete this belief from your system.

Unless you're going into a technical field where you have to have certain knowledge, like engineering, fuck it. You definitely don't need to go to school for philosophy and have some professor validate you. No one cares about your degree. Do you even know where Leo went to school?

Do the actual practices and work than raise consciousness. Become an autodidact through your local public library and the internet. Once you have some money, you can buy more expensive courses and shit.

Can't you just teach yourself philosophy? Leo is a good example of a philosopher who didn't need to go to uni to learn about philosophy.

In the book ''A guide to the good life'', the author who is a uni philosophy teacher, writes that today's philosophy programs are missing the mark and are not beneficial to students anymore.

Maybe you can do a philosophy course that would take 1-2 years and give you a solid background?

While you will definitely learn a lot in the academia, expect a lot of dogma and bullshit that will clash with your core values.
