Learning and Teaching

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone:

 

I have a perhaps different take on the discussion of learning than

some.

This is an excerpt from paper I wrote a couple of years ago.

 

Memory-Knowledge-Experience-Subconscious-Tendency to Repeat-Drives-

Habits-Automaton-Instinct-Hypnosis-Teaching-Learning-Suggestions:

Memory is one of the five mental abilities. That a shred of the past

can be brought into the present to be built upon is truly a

phenomenal event in a universe of rocks and gases spinning around

enormous balls of fire. It is the great achievement of life.

Reproduction of course would be impossible without some type of

memory.

 

The mass of Knowledge each individual today acquires is available

thanks to the thinkers of the past. With the memory of the

achievements in acquired Knowledge of many generations of thinkers it

is not necessary for a person to be terribly adept at coming up with

new knowledge to have considerable conceit concerning intelligence.-

 

Experience could not accrue without Memory.

 

-Cellular memory, hormonal keys, and the cataloguing of events in

one's life are all part of the Subconscious. The nature of memory is

the Tendency to Repeat. As a mental ability memory seems to be

something to be used or not. Used by Whom? Storing and remembering

go on constantly. The Tendency to Repeat must go on regardless of a

user because in fact there is no user. Subliminal activators that

bring up the need to remember and then bring up an appropriate self

image as a user making the memory appear to be at the beck and call

of the Seeker are possible because of the ongoing operation of the

Memory and the Tendency to Repeat.

 

It would not be possible for subliminal activators to create

subliminal activators without the automatic operation of the Tendency

to Repeat. It is more convenient to refer to the Seeker as the

operator of the mental abilities than to keep referring to him as a

set of subliminal activators. Another term that is convenient is

Karma. The idea of whether karma is good or bad is confusing in the

light of all karma being something the Seeker needs to eliminate.

 

When all is seen as the Self, no act creates karma to be worked off

and no subliminal activators need to be consciously instituted to

counteract negative subliminal activators already in place. The mind

is free of the illusion that it is an entire self and does not accrue

more clutter (Drives and Habits) to be eliminated. - The aggregate of

these subliminal activators plus the Tendency to Repeat creates an

Automaton, of which the Seeker is one part, ruled by Instinct and

Hypnosis.

 

A person learns or remembers something if the belief that it will be

remembered is present. Some people remember things they don't want

to remember because they are certain they will. To learn to be a

believer in any religion is to be hypnotized. It is impossible to

hypnotize a person to believe in another religion until the first one

is removed just as it is impossible to make someone do something

against their own nature.- One does not remember multiplication

tables until one believes it is remembered. Suggestibility in a

hypnotic subject means the person believes he or she is hypnotized.

 

If Learning is being hypnotized then Teaching is hypnotizing

another.
