What, How and Experience
I’ve been involved with the personal development of some kind or another for over 25 years – gee…you’d think I’d enlightened by know would you :-)? And I’ve made an observation.
With all the variety of programs and information available on the Internet, and the abundance of DVD’s like “The Secret” and the “Quest” series, as well as the numerous teleclasses why aren’t more people “getting it”?
Well here’s my observation…all, I mean ALL of the programs, DVD’s, etc. are doing great work and the world is a better place because of them. But they are only instructing on what to do to become or attract what ever you’re searching for. Some even go deeper and suggest how to do the ‘what’.
The issue is that the ‘what’ and ‘how’ are only part of answer, without the ‘do’ this is only a partial formula for transformation. There has to be an experience for transformation to occur. All the great Mystery Schools knew this. If you look at the definition of the word “mystery” is means, “…cannot be put into words.”
So how can we expect individuals and society to evolve with words only? We have to have experiences and very intense and powerful experiences!
It is by the doing that we learn and transform down to the DNA level.
Doubt me?
Try learning martial arts by reading or watching ONLY. It can’t be done! You have to experience it to learn it.
Why then do we think that we can evolve by simply reading, watching or listening? We can’t! We have to have experience to in addition to the teachings.
My mentor, Harv Eker say’s that physical is memorable and never truer words have been spoken.
We need to experience to evolve and we must have powerful experiences!
