Education and its Negation

I had not thought of it in such a negative manner:  the educated merely follow what the system presents as being worthy of thought.

Stop and ask yourself:  "What does it mean to be educated?".  In what sense is the word, "educated," being used?

The path of knowledge is the path of the system.  Self-knowledge--true self-knowledge--is found within the system and yet looks nothing like it.  One must merely go into the woods, to the shadows, and enjoy the company of the satyrs.
