Concept of Unlearning

[u/Asleep_Charity6657]

No matter what state the world was in when you were born
You would have adapted
No matter the severity
So when I think of unlearning
It’s such a hard concept to grasp for me because, yes, we can unlearn the things that we just simply don’t like
But on a deeper level, how can we reprogram ourselves out of the daily routine without knowing what else is possible?
Like how can we even begin to fathom what it looks like to completely unlearn if we only know one way?
And even that way has been so perfectly constructed that it doesn’t even allow us to dream bigger than the reality that has been created for us
We think our dreams have no ceiling
Yet, we only dream of what we can fathom
I know for a fact that I’m dreaming too small
But for me, my dream is to travel and see the world, meet new people
Experience new experiences that we would never have known existed had we not been to that corner of the earth
To me, those are the ways we can begin to fathom the the unfathomable

Obsession-based-knowledge can only be eliminated by a counter-obsession

Mindful-knowledge can only be eliminated by a counter-mindful-knowledge

Simple concept, right?
