School, languages

3 posts in this topic

Hey everyone, I have 2 questions:

1) Is there any field, that might be useful to study at a university for self-actualization?

2) I have a big passion for languages, so I want to hear from you guys, if you have any positive experiences with languages making your way to self-actualized life easier. (you were able to read more or not miss some great events) Which were these languages?

I think any subject can be used for self-actualisation as long as you have a purpose behind it, master it, and learn to integrate it to your life and to help others. Also to see the limits of it and how it can be developed.

Language is key to communication. If you're gonna study language, view it more holistically. When people think of language they only think of countries languages, but language is way bigger than that. Language is basically science. Always go as deep as you can to any subject you can and always reflect back to yourself, others, society at large and consciousness.

Programming is a language, science is a language, money is a language, French is a language. It's all relative to the purpose

 

What is the language you would be interested in then?

@QandC Thanks for answering. 

I am interested in too many languages, especially in Asia. I love characters. But as I was meditating and doing self-inquiry, I realized, that I was just trying to impress people around me by knowing languages such as Japanese and Chinese. They are indeed very interesting, but my motivation was very negative most of the time.

On the other hand, I feel like trying to study some ancient/dead language. I saw that idea when I was meditating one day, it just flew through my mind. But I dont feel any passion for that, so I dont think I could persevere.

Hindi is also very atractive for me right now, because I like Indian food, Indian teachers and gurus (especially Sadhguru) and there are probably many great materials for learning. 

Thats just my point of view, I am open to other ideas and stories.
