Wisdom is the Science of Life; Which Religion Got it Right and Science Got it Wrong.
/EINPresswire.com/ Science is about uncovering and harnessing the truth/reality of life; wisdom is about the ability of the mind/brain/body to experience the true nature of life and everything else in it just as it is. Wisdom is the ability to experience pure life. It gives us the ability to know the truth, understand the truth, become the truth and live the truth. Thus wisdom is the science of life! The foundation of wisdom is the foundation of a pure self. Selflessness is the electricity that powers the self actualization of human beings.
As religion has provided an accurate definition of Wisdom religion is the science of wisdom as far as wisdom education is concerned and as science has provided a fuzzy and confusing definition of wisdom science is the belief of wisdom. And science believes in hands on research and frowns of blind beliefs. Yet since the time of Aristotle our belief that wisdom cannot be defined in words has stuck as a sore mental/personality/self-identity/self-image wound. It is so amazing that science has put wisdom in the catergory of philosophy in the ancient times and has since 1000s of years failed to recognize that wisdom is the enabling science of a pure life.
Lets first make clear what is wisdom. Wisdom is an innate property of the pure self. A selfless self is a pure self. Wisdom is just like a fragrance of the brain. Wisdom is powered by pure selflessness.
Again the attributes of ignorance are symptoms of an impure self. So when we try to remove the attributes of ignorance we are virtually trying to remove the symptoms of ignorance without addressing the main cause of these attributes - the impure self, that is represented by a part phony self image.
As the human mind works in images the mind perceives the image of life's realities and not the reality itself; we even perceive our self in the shape of a Self Image. How real or distorted the self image is to the real self determines the purity/impurity of the pure self. The conscious self is mostly the self image projected by the mind and the unconscious self is the projection of the brain and together they project the subconscious self. For -2 premature, -1 immature and +1 mature mind/brain the effective self image is a mixture of all the three, where the brain and mind both project a different self image which results in an unhealthy subconscious self image. The severity of this unhealthiness starts at -2 and mostly eases at +1. At the +2 stage the self image projected by the brain and mind are both the same as is the subconscious self image.
Most Americans have a +1 self image at the individual level. However at the group self image level even some +2 self images are -2 at the group self image level when they are fanatically for their own clan or religion. The resulting self image is a complex mixture. All lower level self images are powered by emotional baggage, which is mostly lodged in the brain due to unhealthy upbringing and/or faulty beliefs. The pure self of the child is emotionally and physically abused; which results in an emotionally damaged self image. Some times the child is nurtured with loving care but the belief 'I am the best' and/or the belief, 'my religion/caste is the one and only' creates it's own emotional baggage.
This whole current mess of society of individual and group divisions are all due to this emotional baggage that our brains carry as we are ignorant of the real picture of the pure self image.
Wisdom education so far is about trying to cure the symptoms of the disease of ignorance (and it is really a physical disease of the brain) rather than addressing and curing the fact that the self is impure and needs to be made pure.
The current method of trying to teach the attributes of wisdom through trying to create the symptoms of wisdom has had some proven success. Lets take the case of positive thinking. Study after study has indicated that there are positive benefits to positive thinking. The reasons are clear:
1) Positive thinking generates positive biochemical reactions which have health benefits for the body as well as for the brain/mind.
2) Positive thinking has a brain washing affect on the brain/mind. So the person feels more confident, happier and even sleeps better etc.
But brain washing is not a real solution.
Wisdom is the umbrella word for the attributes of selflessness. These attributes are all secondary entities and are therefore symptoms of selflessness. Thus wisdom is also a symptom of selflessness. No wonder wisdom being a symptom cannot be taught or cultivated directly. Selflessness is the root that can be cultivated through nurturing
It is clear that given the nature of wisdom; where wisdom is a function of the pure self, we need education that transforms the impure self image into a pure self. And as the fundamental quality of the pure self is selflessness we have to develop education that creates selflessness.
The phony self image is a result of emotional baggage in the brain and so teaching selflessness is not the current ways of teaching wisdom through preaching, pleading and through carrots and sticks. Selflessness education is about removing the emotional baggage of the brain. It is exactly as the current ways of healing emotionally challenged minds; through psychotherapy, psychiatry, psychoanalysis and yoga etc. Just as we today use all these methods to make the sub-normal into normal we can use the same healing processes to make even the so called normal human beings into super normal human beings. Today about 80% of human beings are less than super normal and this is the big reason why our jails are full, our mental asylums are full, there is 50% divorce, out of wedlock children and even those still married a vast section is unhappy with their spouses. From Wall Street greed to corruption, from East-West divide to this futile search for pure happiness is all an extension of our so called normal really being subnormal.
