Theos-Talk Archives (January 2005 Message tt00015)

Hallo all,

My views are:

The following emails posted by me a few weeks ago might be helpful
to some of the readers:

1. ROLES of TEACHER and STUDENT
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/theos-talk/message/19293

A short excerpt:
"Because the student is likely to be imprisoned by attitudes
which have trained him, he will tend to approach the teacher,
and the teaching, in all kinds of ineffective and minor ways.
He will ask for 'peace of mind', progress in his worldly life,
money, knowledge, illumination, assurances - all things which may
be important in one way or another, but which are not necessarily
relevant to his situation. In other words, he asks to be taught,
or to be given, knowledge and things which HE HAPPENS TO BE WANTING
FOR THE SOLE REASON THAT HE HAS DECIDED THAT THESE ARE NECESSARY OR
URGENT."



2. A Curriculum of a School
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/theos-talk/message/12810

A short excerpt:
"The bitter truth is that before man can know his own inadequacy, or the
competence of another man or institution, he must first learn something which
will enable him to perceive both. Note well that his perception itself is a
product of right study; not of instinct or emotional attraction to the
individual, nor yet of desiring to 'go it alone'. This is 'Learning How To
Learn."
