Process of Learning

The Process of Learning

The purpose of education is not acquiring of marks, ranks, degrees,qualifications and then lucrative assignments (jobs or positions) but learning. To do this we need to focus our attention on the subject of study and not on any thing else.
For example when studying, it does not matter who the teacher is, whether male or female, harsh or gentle. The place and time where you are studying also does not matter. If attention shifts to these, then you will lose focus on the subject and learning will suffer.
Do not skip a step if you have not understood it fully. If you do that, you will find all subsequent steps slippery and learning will become a painful experience.
The approach to learning is as important as the subject of study. It is the foundation of all learning.
In the beginning a new subject appears to be difficult to grasp. This is not the quality of the subject but an essential part of learning. In the beginning you will be confused. This also is a part of learning. Stay with it and apply your full attention to the subject. Gradually confusion will go away and clarity will come. At this point it will all become enjoyable and easy.You are now ready for the next step.
Difficulty and confusion will appear again. Remember it is the initial part of the learning process.
To master the learning process, we need to do both;
learning ourselves,
and helping others to learn.
I wish you become learned and wise, which is the key to supreme happyness.
Lots of love
