Teachers and Students

~ I think THE best teacher would be someone who loves learning so much more then they love teaching. Not to be at odds with teaching mind you, helpful, resourceful, concise and informative but forever in awe of learning. It serves as a positive foundation and model for students ~

~ In fact if you think about it its more an accurate representation of life. As in the model for everything our families. The parents never sacrifice their lives for a child, there is no need. In fact its quite the opposite the parents are so capable and involved in life they always have more then enough for themselves, and just enough to comfortably support an offspring or several. But that always only ever comes from a positive successful model for living. As long as the parent is fulfilled, happy, prosperous, in love so then is the home for any dependent or student of life. The home is always the love which does not depend on physical dwellings and material possessions but supports the creation of them. The dwellings and material possessions can then be easily manifested, appreciated or found no matter what the circumstances. For example a fire burns down your home, response: I can't wait to see our new one. When the love is strong the circumstances are irrelevant and even a welcome change of pace or adventure. Another experiential method to help reinforce and understand the many different angels that love functions in three dimensions ~

~ They will tell you it doesn't exist, there's no such thing, give up, get serious, grow up, fall in line, just do what your told, don't be different, give it up, but that is exactly what you need to hear in order to have always the option of turning back, of having some place to go other then where your going, of knowing that the correct decision is never one that is forced but is always, always your choice ~

~ And that way everything that comes from your choice is exclusively yours one way or another.  Basing this in the last concept of teacher student and child parent understanding.  There would never be a need to push anyone to do anything, because everyone will SEE with their own eyes how attractive correct living is and want to make their own version of it.  In this way education will continually be fresh and organic and moving changing with the times and adapting to new possibilities and avenues of expansion to grow, not shrink into an always better then the last one moving organism.  Education that is alive, organic and with the capability of learning from itself, from within itself.  No rulers only participants.  Education being the authority and not localized in an individual or ruling elite.  Likewise for families there would never be a need to discipline the child because not living correctly would be enough of a punishment or rather incentive to move back in line for a better path.  But it also allows for a number of very beneficial things to happen to help the entire family out.  The child might choose a path in direct contrast to the path of the adults informing them perhaps of a better path or at least useful ideas they can put into practice to strengthen and enhance their own life.  The child learns self reliance and accurate self assessment and judgement in all cases relating to their on well being and personal pace and rhythm in life.  They learn right off the bat to trust themselves and are given exactly enough space to develop their own way of being and practice that indefinitely for the rest of their lives.  The child also develops their own sense of self-respect as soon as they can be aware of it and the respect the parents have for themselves serves to reinforce and compliment it in their own unique process of growth and exploration.  Life is about exploration, enjoyment and discovery and living in this way helps both parents and children to learn from one another organically and independently requiring neither party to sacrifice their own inherent individuality for the other, but provides an environment where learning and living can continue in both lives organically and independently forever.  Not only that but each persons unique expression being inherently self-sufficient is strong enough to not only support itself but inform, enhance and accelerate the unique expression of all other individuals.  Both parties can remain individual expressions and still use idea's unique to the others in enhance their own self-expression and round it out more, harmonize it more.  It's the same idea behind hybridization to enhance the organic structure of two separate species.  In this this way their is literally no such thing as a useless person or wasted life.  Every single single sovereign entity is an invaluable piece of human equation and at its rudimentary element deserves respect and appreciation because physically speaking that is what it is.  Even scientifically speaking any life form is an incredible awe inspiring masterpiece ~


~ When you look at the world and see someone who can speak a different language, or knows how perform an intricate skill like a master sculptor or even just someone who knows how to skateboard, its impressive, it makes you want to model it in your own life, learn how to do it.  We all have this natural desire to integrate new knowledge, skills and abilities into our being.  In this way it becomes clear there really is no need to dominate, only facilitate the students natural curiosity and desire to learn.  So then why is education structured to enforce learning as if we weren't naturally inquisitive and interested?  Why are our natural selves treated like a dangerous thing that needs to be changed? or domesticated? or dominated?  Why? Why? Why?  In my opinion this speaks volumes about our mentality and method for living.  Although we may not recognize it immediately, we are like some darkened backwards civilization of very very very dark minded heavy automatons moving like lifeless machines moving in an atrocious self-annilating anti life capacity.  What the fuck.  Most people in the "civilized word" are not really alive and anyone who is is seen as a dangerous threat to the system, which they are because the system is inherently corrupt and self-annhilating.  Maybe lives were actually meant to go on for a thousand years but because of the way we live our lives are consequently shortened to a paltry 75 maybe 80.  Everyone speaks about it that deadened feeling going through monotonous cycles and routines.  Filing out papers, signing this and that, picking up this picking up that, doing this doing that.  Life is so much of lifeless expression of endless seemingly meaningless monotonous routines to avoid death or dying.  Its so shit on so many levels but the fear of death is definitely something that keeps us running the gauntlet again and again and again and again until eventually the endless self-depricating cycles run us down in a mangled heap of tightened limbs and broken dreams.  The quality of life, fuck even the purpose of life is awful.  There's no nothing in here worth doing cause its so shit everywhere.  Even at the highest levels its still upsetting.  And the low levels are endless and often inspiring.  Its like we're in a meat grinder slowly being ground into pulp and asked and encouraged to smile while its happening because it might upset others who are a little less certain of their position in the grind ~


~ You know reading this, I see I'm just as frightened as everyone else and more then that lost in my own pain.  I'm angry yes, but simultaneously terrified of life.  I never made the decisions I'm angry at others for not making.  I never did the right thing.  I consistently did the wrong thing over and over and over and over again and blamed everyone and everything for the choices I myself chose to make.  I've blamed everyone and everything and found new and more intricate ways of fighting and avoiding what I fear.  I've done it so much I'm actually surprised I didn't just fall off the edge.  I'm really good at being bad and everyone has ever taken care of me and supported my own self-destruction.  I've paid with everything that I have.  I have brought myself into my own pits of despair and denial like the mad man in shutter island.  I'm now sitting at the edge of the steps committed to my own self-destruction, committed to my own madness.  A wreck a disaster, no better and in fact worse then everyone I have ever endlessly fought in anyone of these insipid rants.  A lot of hate, a lot of anger, a lot of pain A LOT of PAIN.  I've spent so much time fighting everyone and everything endlessly, endlessly just fighting, advocating my own superior standards over that of everyone else.  But secretly frightened out of my mind, scared shitless underneath it all.  To willing to fight, in utter defiance of anything to do with actual love, peace or understanding.  I just talked about thousand year lives but in all seriousness I've probably ground my life down from the 75 mark to about 50 or 45 because of my pain, because of my fear because of my hatred and rage.  Pure rage.  Frightening rage like that of a caged lion.  I think the point of it was that all the rage actually fits exactly into my fear.  It's not a mistake or an aberration or some crazy thing.  That's its purpose.  And to look at it that way ironically enough all the authority figures I have ever antagonized and fought my entire life are now suddenly my cohorts and colleagues ~
