To be posted in every school on earth and beyond. You may follow these. Or not.
- Acknowledge the System: Realize that you are perpetually being indoctrinated. Observe how the system shapes you as you learn. Recognize that change starts within, empowering you to reshape the system itself.
- Question Everything: Instead of relying solely on knowledge, which can be faked, let curiosity and intuition be your guiding light. Question, challenge, and explore to uncover your own truth hidden beneath the surface.
- Keep an Open Mind: Follow #1 and #2 and you will see that life and learning is enriched by an infinity of different viewpoints and perspectives. Embrace a diversity of ideas and cultures, for in commonalities and differences, we divine the beauty of understanding.
- See Beyond the Surface: Just as a scientist delves deeper into the microcosms of nature, venture beyond appearances to grasp the intricacies of any subject.
- Unite Mind and Matter: The connection between mind and body is sacred, as is the relationship between thought and manifestation. Physical well-being influences mental well-being and vice versa.
- Believe What You May: Observe the strange and wonderful belief systems that thread through human history. Create your own. Yours is a personal journey. Be your own disciple.
- Play and Create: Just as recess in the schoolyard offers a break, life’s playfulness fuels innovation. Unleash your creativity, for it is the catalyst for transformative ideas.
- Challenge Assumptions: As an artist redefines norms, embrace your ability to challenge assumptions. For it is through dismantling preconceptions that progress truly takes root.
- Adapt and Evolve: The world shifts like tectonic plates, and learning is the compass of adaptation. Keep evolving, for growth is the hallmark of life’s journey.
- Be Your Own Educator: Remember, while the world guides you, you are the captain of your ship. You can forge your own path, seek your own truths, and craft your own legacy. But don’t worry if you don’t have one.
