AWAKEN THE GOOD STUDENT IN YOU
There is a proverb in English that “The more you read the more you learn.” Here reading means extensive reading. But reading only study books can never make a student knowledgeable. In order to be an ideal learner a student must walk through all branches of sharpening merit such as reading; understanding and practical application in practical field, travelling as tourist, keeping knowledge about information technology (IT), computer operation, gossiping with others, utilizing leisure time positively.
A good student has to be an ideal learner first. He should inculcate inquisitiveness in him. With the
hunger for knowledge he has to develop certain qualities in him. The essential qualities a student has to imbibe are openness, willingness, self discipline, enthusiasm, curiosity, trust, dedication, humility and selfkindness. Openness means to let every aspect of your being be open. Open your eyes, your ears, your pores and cells and heart, your brain and mind. Be willing is to try something new, go out of your comfort zone, challenge your thoughts and beliefs about the world. Absorb the teachings you need. Then apply them diligently to your own experience. Self-Discipline is an important factor that every good student must possess. Often delaying the tasks, such as writing assignments, reading text books etc may negatively impact the ability of a student to achieve the goals. Follow a disciplined routine. Enthusiasm comes from the Greek meaning, “possessed by the gods.” Let yourself be possessed by your quest for wholeness and freedom. Be willing to go out on a limb, to do things that don’t make sense, to let your journey unfold through you. Be curious about how your reactions work. Shine your laser-like attention into the heart of your habits.
Teachers come in all shapes and sizes, but the ultimate teacher is life itself. Your teacher may be your
child or an illness or loss or nature. Trust that you are getting exactly what you need for freedom. And if you follow a person who is teaching, choose wisely, then trust completely. Forget what you already know that isn’t serving you and adopt an attitude of, “I don’t know.” Recognize that your mind tries to solve problems it can’t begin to know the answer to. Empty yourself of what you
think you know, then let something new come forth, fresh in the moment. The journey to wholeness and healing can bring you all kinds of challenges. Remain connected with your true heart’s desire. Keep the fire burning. Habits run deep, so treat yourself with tough love. Be unceasingly attentive, and unendingly kind. Relax and breathe. Not resisting anything is the most loving thing you could ever do.If there is something you know you need to learn, be like a sponge. Absorb the teachings and let them filter in completely. Then, as if you are reborn, emerge – fresh, alive, and whole.
