“What a beautiful gift it would have been for all of us, if we hadn’t had our thinking done for us, mostly before we were born- If we therefore didn’t know what we are supposed to think, or to believe- If our minds had not been conditioned or caged but allowed to fly free as a bird.”
Bill Dawson
Indoctrination
“The act or process of forcing somebody to accept a particular belief or set of beliefs and not allowing them to consider any others”.
Every time a child is born into this world, new hope, a fresh promise also enters. A chance that a soul can at last fulfil their purpose for being on Earth, and so evolve to higher realms of their Soul.
But the child is doomed from the moment of birth, doomed to be indoctrinated into the ways its parents have also been indoctrinated into, and the ways of society it is born into.
Born into a world of lies, a world of man-made rules, rules imposed upon it. Rules that in no way benefit the child, it’s soul. Laws that it’s parents and it must follow or be punished. “Do this or else you will be punished – don’t do that or else you will also be punished”. It is nothing less than fear-based blackmail and control that is placed upon the child, the soul.
Plato said that Education should be about the drawing out of the child’s natural leanings, the child’s own curiosity.
Leonardo Da Vinci did not receive a formal education because the rules of the society he was born into forbade him and others from a formal education. Because he was born out of wedlock. Yet he said he was glad he had not received a formal education because it allowed him think for himself. Leonardo was a “Bastard” but what a clever bastard he proved to be. Observing and being inspired by nature, analysing how things worked and applying his observations to innovate and invent many things.
Though there are many great mentors, the greatest teacher is your own innate higher intelligence. Your own original thoughts. Thought being the link to reality, the link to Soul. All having equal access to inspiration should they care to use it.
Yet children are merely trained to obey and fit into a pre-ordained order, a top-down system of control. Control by way of the many religions of fake man-made gods. Gods to whom only the “divinely appointed” have access.
Indoctrination/control in the form of reductionist “science”. Science that divides and divides but never views the whole.
Indoctrination under the guise of education. Students taught to parrot unquestionable information, secondhand ideas and theories and to build upon those assumptions (thesis) In order to gain official certificates of Academic approval for parroting the indoctrinations put upon them.
Should any dare question and propose new ideas that threaten to destroy the pre-held beliefs of a top-down system of control, they will be “Failed” by Academia, branded a heretic by religion. Called fools by the media and those who defend their own indoctrinations.
All this to prevent the child following its own nature, learning for itself whilst fulfilling its own unique purpose, its own way, at its own pace. And so, evolving in understanding and wisdom.
Theories based on assumptions topped up by more assumptions that are taught as facts.
Schooling/indoctrination versus real Education that guides a child how it can think for itself rather than taught what to think by those who wish to control it.
The Soul does not require any religion or academic certification, or any form of approval to be what it is in reality.
Soul is the essence that all living beings contain. The gift of life, of intelligence. All should have Free Choice how they use this powerful unique gift.
