OMG....how did u get these words??? thats EXACTLY how i felt...government thinks they know the correct way to live. who are they to decide what is moralily our decision? i hope everyone reads your post kenshi. i didnt like being on a set path as a child and i still dont. pure people can do this energy work and spiritual stuff with ease because of their purity. then the artificial knowledge from the system is taught. crumbles ur purity away! we should start a rebelion...seriously

[mazdaaf]

wow.. i always knew that i didnt want to grow up but now i truely understand why i feel that. I also hope everyone reads this message. The only problem is there are a few things that we need to know to survive, which others can teach us. But on the whole i totally agree with what Kenshi said. Awesome post [|)]

I feel its all about courage, courage to break free of the live we are so stuck in, but it's about the hardest thing to do, taking your freedom.

I think a lot of people are stuck in the live they are leading and would like to take a leap and go do something completely different, quit their job, leave the place they are living in now, leave the situation they are in now, just leave it all behind and go and make the life you want, do what you like. But there are a lot of things, holding you back, family, friends, how are you going to live, where are you going to live, where to go, where to start. To really break free all at ones takes a lot of courage and I don't have it. Besides you have to know what you want to, what you really want, without that breaking free becomes even harder.  Who is going to give the answers I need? Who is going to give me the nudge in the right direction?

I guess a great source of this fear is that humans always assume they are going to be saved, but deep down we realize this is not so.

Personaly, I did quit my current education (IT Media Production) just recently and am going to study martial arts and traditional chinese medicine instead. I know that with this path that I now have recently chosen, that I might not have allot of money to survive on, I'm aware of this. But when I realize how happy it makes me, to be just me, to do what makes me feel so alive, I realize no amount of money can pay for that feeling.

Yes, I might have to become a cleaner or another simple job to make extra money, but atleast I have chosen, a free choice. Not an improvisation. The system makes us improvise, but does not offer us free choice. On a certain level I feel proud that I have found the courage within me to step lose from what the system had in mind for me.

Freedom is a property of humanity's true essense, which is why many think "humans are naturaly lazy". No, working for things like money, a status, etc. is just not our natural way of being. Just look how that fact is trying to tell us that, trough stress, burnouts, heart attacks, depressions, frustrations, hatred, etc.

[Moonburn33]

martial arts and traditional chinese medicine aren't part of the system?  by all means follow your heart- but don't pretend that you can escape.

*jaded yawn*

[Akensai]

Escape is in your mind, it's not a literal escape from a place, so yes you can escape.

[RooJ]

I know exactly what you mean Kenshi. I sometimes feel like im in a constant battle between what the system and others expect of me and what i want with my life. Its sad but the large majority of people are slaves to money.
I agree its all about happiness, the way the systems set up now means you have to be a slave to money, you have no choice in the matter. The best bet is finding a job which you like, too many people i know are spending 8 or 9 hours of every day (the sunniest parts of the day []) doing the same repetative job which they hate. The most important thing is fighting for a job which you like and are happy doing, if this is traditional chinese medicine or working with computers it doesnt matter, aslong as you dont regret everyday that your doing it [].
I also agree with the learning although school is necessary, children these days seem to miss out on childhood starting school earlier and earlier. Sad really.

i dont think school is necessary at all! most of the stuff they teach is all bull-honkey! why do ppl need to know about prepositions, adjectives, dividing fractions, or anything?! its not like we're gonna need to know what george washing did to his dad's stupid tree![|)] its all useless garbage that men made up to shove in our heads and call it 'education'. i think ppl should spend more time doing energy work, spirituality, stimulating one's self, and finding the REAL truth about life. NOT learning your stupid prime numbers...ya, that'll be SO useful when i decide to become a mathmetician[:O]! YEAH, FRICKEN, RIGHT! its all bull f**kin sh*t![!] that kinda stuff is EXACTLY what takes the place of our purity.

[RooJ]

Id have to disagree. I like learning and i think in the world as it is at the moment its important that people go to school. Theres also the whole social aspect of children making friends and learning to get on with other children etc. Its probebly personal preference but i enjoyed learning subjects like science and such.

[Moonburn33]

smiley- the very computer that you're typing on was designed by someone who went to school.  do i need to say any more?

[SmileySpirit14]

then you can imagine the difficulties he'd have in the psychic field...[xx(]

[lateralus897]

Personally, I think our individual "corruption," or whatever you call it, is a necessary part of our learning process. The hardest thing to do in life is to "re-learn" how to create yourself. By going to hell and back, we get the most out of life. Feel free to disagree, I just think that all of the bad in the world has a lesson for us.

[Moonburn33]

i got through school and learned some very important things from some very good teachers.

my psychic front is doing just fine- i am not the exception.  education is not a big devil- propaganda is and if you're not smart enough to rise beyond it then you aren't smart enough to realize that 2+2=5.

Where's Piccolo?

School can just be a place where people are indoctrinated into cultural values.  Some people can work around this and some can't.

I think that our concept of what it is necessary to teach ourselves and our children changes from generation to generation as our view of the world and our relationship to it changes. Since 19th century and the industrial revolution people have been getting standardized education and living in big cities. Since this time alienation from nature and the soul has become widespread due to the pure materialistic dogma of science and materialistic economic credos(communist, capitalist, social welfare state).

This is to be expected as astrologically speaking Saturn and Jupiter have met every 20 years in earth houses for 200 years. In 2020 this period will end as they meet in Aquarius. I am not talking about the "Age of Aquarius"(2000 year long phase)" but just about a normal cyclical thing which lasts 800 years, 200 years for each of the four elements.  

Nowadays there is so much knowledge and interest in spirituality and consciousness and even the physicists(starting with Einstein) have admitted perspective or consciousness as important. these concepts will change the way we learn academically(Brain Mapping technique for example) and the content as old logical paradigms give way to creative ones.

Basically the Zeitgeist determines what is shoved down our throats at school and in the media and our whole environment. The average person fits into the mold  generally, but a lot of people do not. This zeitgeist changes slowly and sometimes very suddenly and that makes for revolutions in our thought paradigm. The 60's was important for the esoteric teachings being introduced and accepted by the masses in the West. The acceptance of Western materialism in the East through globalization may destroy spirituality there but give the seething masses in India, etc. the longed for better material life. Let us hope we can combine the best of both cultures and develop a way to absorb all the new technology and information overload and control it so that it does not control us.

I am trying to teach my 5 year old son NEW and he finds it fun. I think the right way is for us to take one step at a time as  individuals with our own kids.

[FreeFaller]

see and you learn more when your having fun, well for me at least, and when i can go out and learn things on my own its much better. school who needs it? they have ruined my life. i used t be up at six without an alarm and i had plently of evergy, but now its:

6:30 *radioturns on*

"no leave me alone stupid Y101.1fm"
"OWWW (step on my computer which sits on the floor next to my bed)"
get dressed in something that doesnt match go to breakfast et redressed and fix up get out of the door by 7:10 to catch a buss when school doesnt even start til almost an hour later. then i get soo much homework where i m up till late. my life was sucked from me.

This message is specially for you...

This message is to those that may still value the illusion that "the system" as we know it, is life. My dear friends, the system is merely a virtual ego, a tool for survival, how ever, it now seems to survive on us. Look how it rapes your children.

Children, so pure, so conscious. It is the children that know that the wind is there for them, to strike trough their hair. It is the children that know that the sun's gentle warm touch is touching them because they're beautiful. It is the children that know that the rain is there for them to wash all the dirt away.

Our children, are wise my friends, they learn from life it self. They use all their senses to learn, they observe, feel, hear, sense, touch. Life it self is their teacher, willing to educate them to be the wisest loving beings walking this planet. But then you come in, you who so unawarely mistakes the system for life. You who mistakes your child's purity for immaturity. You make it go to school, so the dear child may only focus on one point, the child no longer gets educated by life it self, but by the system instead. The child must improvise now, the system only offers the child limited paths, no longer the world. The system tells them it is bad to be a child, the child should "grow up" and "mature". Children dislike this, this goes against humanity's true nature. And what does one do when a child expresses that it's being suppressed? The dear beautiful child gets punished, yes, punished. You punish the child for being pure, you punish your child for telling you the truth, humanity is no longer free. We have become slaves of our own system, we think having a job, making money is living... No my friends, that is merely a sad, sad life situation, but not to be mistaken with life it self. You are not your possessions, you are not your name, you are not your title, you are not your education, you are not your status, you are not your amount of money. Listen to your children, they will show you that all of us are still children.

Go, and educate your children how you see fit, but remember these words always.

Love,

A conscious child.
