We all "seem" to be attacking the "karate kid style teachings" from different angles. Responding to you was very helpful and challenging to me (I find your formal logical framework in your reply both inspiring and intimidating), I look forward to your reply!

 Quoting: MutantMessiah


The "karate kid style teachings" say to me that "what you are doing, is different to what you think you are doing"-while under teaching.
Or, what you are saying is different to what you think you are saying.

"success" will not come from finding out what you are "actually" doing or saying, because it is impossible (you can never be sure, because you are not the teacher).

It will come from holding on to the same attitude when you do the things that you do, or say the things that you say each and every time.

The "awe" moment that U3 is expecting to experience will be the moment where she will be "attacked" karate style and spontaneously will be able to push back the "attacker" in karate style too.

Without knowing of course beforehand that she was able to do so (All she knew was how to paint fences and wash cars in the right way).

We have civilization for a reason. If we didn't have reason, then we would have stayed without civilization. Even if none of us seem to know what the reason is.

It must be part of the teaching I suppose.
 Quoting: panoukos


My original goal, when encountering this thread was to "expand my perspective". I didn't really know at the time what that would have meant as it lied outside my perspective at the time and existed only as a goal. Since that time, I've come to understand that we "already have", what I would have previously considered, an "expanded perspective" and it is "automatically" experienced when we "find" the logic to perceive it. Success in this context is reaching a goal. The "success" you're referring to, I am yet to achieve.

Our "teacher" has left the classroom, fully stocked with textbooks, transcripts of previous lectures and students that refuse to "pass" the class. The teacher has returned as a student to digest his own class and participate in the studies.

"Without knowing the course beforehand"(awesome point by the way)... You, Panoukos, are my teacher as much as Chaol, Mr. Miyagi or "civilization" is. Thank you for that.
