Reading and Learning

Notions become engrained by repeating them a lot until they become part of the neural circuitry of someone. Repeating something with attention does indeed lead to neural changes and by that creating a more present and functioning internal schema. Repeating something inattentively is nothing more than a vapid mantra that holds nothing in the external world nor in the world of your neural pathways.

I have written on this matter many times and writing on something a lot does not have to reflect that you are an expert in it but at times as you write, you get to merge some notions that once you thought they were not related in any way. After all, it is part of literary innovation to be able to find links in matters in which people couldn’t find links.

Reading and learning shouldn’t stop even if you are not expecting a certain certificate. It should be at first an act of personal enlightenment. For someone who is aware of the Kantian philosophy, one might realize that I am calling towards the same notion of having the act of learning as a goal and means in itself. It should be an act you choose to do autonomously for the sake of it itself. Adding to that, one should understand that the benefits of reading and learning follow even without the person being fully conscious of how it does manifest its benefits. Learning does indeed give us better tools of probing the world around us and being able to relate things at a higher degree. Life is different with more knowledge and more thoughts. Life is different knowing that you are sneezing because of an internal physiological happening, and still trying to understand more and probe further, from thinking that it is because your grandmother in Hadramout (a place in Yemen) is talking about you. Life is different when you realize that you are having some stress because certain expectations of yours didn’t go well, and trying to understand the situation you are in and trying to fix matters with patience and proactivity can help,  from thinking that someone in Djibouti talked about you and by that certain vibrations in the air changed sending an unseen frequency from his eyes all the way to you which alters the levels of cytokines in your body causing a higher level of CRH in your body leading to a heightened stress level.

We all have brains and we are able (sometimes even with slight abnormalities) to widen our knowledge and get more experienced. Knowledge is attracting alike matters. When you learn you get to want to learn more and by that you connect dots in a better way. You gain yourself a better understanding of how things are changing.
