How Important Do You Consider Academic Knowledge In Personal Development?

23 posts in this topic

Unfortunately, none of this mental understanding will get us to the truth. Only when mind is conquered would you have the open door to the truth of who you really are. From that perspective, the only knowledge you need, is how to undo the knowledge that you already have, so that you are bare of everything you think you know. 

Here... that. 

Practical knowledge, intellectual understanding for day to day life will not leave you... but it will be strictly used in the context of practicality

@Ayla What do you mean?  What do you mean by undoing the knowledge that I already have?  Is there understanding other than mental understanding? What do you mean used strictly in the context of practicality?

In my Semiotic archaeology master studies I had few methodology and theory of science subjects. They taught material that is closely connected with all the topics that Leo elaborates. They were a huge mind opener for me. To put it in a few sentences:

What is paradigm, how all the scientific theories and all scientific ''absolute truths'' are just paradigms, how does a paradigm shift occurs, about the ''subjective'' factor in science, how to spot pseudoscience, why does it occur.... and way more.  It teaches you how to blast your believe system and be seeker of knowledge, truth and a real scientist.
