“When your education limits your imagination, it is called indoctrination.”
— Nikola Tesla
Education is what people learn – knowledge we call this. Language. Math. Science. History.
Indoctrination means “the process of teaching a person or group to accept a set of beliefs uncritically.”
Education isn’t always true – especially the history side of what people learn…
Most of what students learn in history classes is that their country is the greatest and has done no wrong, and a few countries are allies and then the rest of them are terrorists – when maybe it’s their country that causes terrorism toward other countries.
Most people don’t question what they’ve been taught in school.
Critical thinking will get you further than most people – if you can truly think critically.
But critical thinking will also get you hated on by your own government!!
Governments desire blind obedience, not critical thinking!!
Anyway, imagination can play a part in critical thinking and education, but there is no imagination in indoctrination.
Use your mind – imagine if what you learned in school might be wrong or very biased.
Schools often also teach that drugs are bad, while most teachers are on prescription drugs lololol!!!!
The blind leading the blind…
Some drugs are bad, and many prescription drugs are terrible and keep people dependent on them. While some drugs, plant medicines, like magic mushrooms, are extremely healthy and beneficial for the human mind heart body.
Anyway, I could write a short book about education, imagination, indoctrination, but I’ll end it here.
Just remember – you are NOT A ROBOT. Your brain is cosmic & divine. Your education doesn’t need to be something you’ve been told and then you repeat it.
Expand your education with your imagination.
