Favourite lessons from A Course in Miracles
Somehow, life had enrolled me in an abstract version of A Course in Miracles before I had read the book. Here are some core lessons that I resonate with.
Manifesting a vision for education: Creating a social vision board
How can a vision that’s bigger than my life be manifested into the world? Let’s start by bringing the “vision” itself into the world with a social vision board.
Social justice is a vision, not a precondition. Decolonization must start from the heart.
Despite the efforts, faulty paradigms in social ethics and knowledge production keep us cycling through the same colonial-based mindsets and behaviours.
If knowledge is power, why is academia such a disempowering place?
When knowledge production is fueled by uncertainty and university-endorsed values are based on judgements, we are building a society of fear and shame.
