Speaker Interested In How We Learn
The Lanzarote Sessions - Series 6 Session 9
THE MESSAGE
Transcribed on 10th May 2024 @ 5:00 pm
Hello. The thing that interests me is the way that people, your side and here, seek knowledge. I have studied this for some time and have realised some interesting factors.
For me, I see knowledge as the oil of the engine. It’s essential for smooth motion of all the parts. The quality of the oil is therefore essential, as is the quality of the knowledge one acquires.
I have learned that some people, especially those living on earth are satified to use any oil for their engine. What I’m saying is that these people seek only the knowledge that is sufficient to satify their curiosity. These few will accept anything as fact, even when the source is only hearsay. Others take their knowledge from a bias source, resulting in inaccuracies being present. Their temporary thirst for knowledge is quenched with anything that appears to satisfy.
Then there are others that take time to find their knowledge - too much time. When they discover the truth of what it is they wish to learn, they refuse to accept it and continue to search aimlessly. Occasionally they choose to accept an alternative answer to the truth, because they like it more.
There are some seekers of knowledge that, when discovering the facts, choose only to filter it to their liking. I have a fascination for this particular topic. It has helped me to understand human’s nature more precisely. I have an interest in how we all tick. I started looking into this when I was living on earth and have continued here.
It started when I was a university student. I found myself questioning the teachers and the other students. I tested my work by making up facts based on a few possible truths, then sharing these made-up facts with fellow students. I was startled when, one day, a teacher quoted my fact to another student claiming it to be the answer. This got me questioning all the knowledge I had gained, how and when it had come from originally.
Even now, I listen to my friends, when they talk on a subject, and find myself deducing how much of what they share is really true.
I’m sharing this with you this day in the hope that you will always seek the truth in your knowledge, and when you know the answers are correct, accept them.
You have a phrase on earth that states ‘knowledge is power’ Indeed it is, But wrong knowledge, hearsay, lies, assumptions, guesses, estimates, and the like, act like poor oil in your engine.
Let me give you an example of something you believe is fact, that I know is not. You believe that your life is eternal. Only a part of that is true I’m afraid to tell you. A life is eternal, yes. But your life isn’t. Your life, as you know it, now will only exist for a period of time. That period is immeasurable. Your soul will evolve, merge and blend with increasingly greater sources of life.
You want know it’s happening because your personality will eventually become diluted in the greater whole. How do I know this? Because I have done my research since being here. It was during my interest in the acquisition of knowledge that I discovered the greater answers.
My message to you is to learn to recognise that not everything you hear is true. Yet much of what is dismissed as false may have truths within it.
I’m not expecting you to study the acquisition of knowledge as I have done, it would serve you no useful purpose, merely to entertain you. But I am expecting you to learn how to learn, to know how to know, and to feed your body, your mind, your engine, with quality oil.
Psychology should not be your interest, but the pursuit of good knowledge should be, particularly in your work with understanding the great mysteries of our two worlds.
Thank you for allowing me to air my views, my learned student.
Safe travels.
