The path of Self-study ..

Self-study leads one off the beaten path onto a uniquely personal journey. One track leads to another and then another, guided purely by the stirring of ones heart. Self-study originates from the inner urge in us to understand and deepen our learning about life and the world we live in. It is learning without a curriculum, without a set pace and without a goal.

All great writers, poets, teachers, philosophers, scientist and artists spend a great deal of time in self study. The anticipation of reading the next book elevates us from the mundane activities of daily life.  All that is needed is a quiet uncluttered corner in our homes for pursuing our self guided study.

“Self-education is, I firmly believe, the only kind of education there is.” ― Isaac Asimov
