Innocence and wisdom

Three days were spent on teaching a 13 year old, wordly wisdom!!!!!!!!

He has been battered and bruised by a team of adults because he had presented his viewpoints to his teacher who had extremely favorable view points towards a particular religion. Since most adults have lost the ability to focus on the mind speaking and not on age, size, gender, socio economic status and every other factor, it was not palatable to an adult that a child had countered his sentiments.

Bottomline is that he was taught to replace his courage of conviction and his genuine self with cunning, manipulation and compromise.

I guess we have all gone through this in the process of "growing up". all he needs is to keep his courage and conviction alive into his adulthood when he can concretise them into action. It is tough for a child to take on the system.

Thanks Usha, my point is that the adult world cannot dissociate the mind from age, size, color or creed, even in a so called liberated educational environment.
