“This world is a great school” — Where does learning life begin?
In Osho’s presentation there are many parables on various topics. There is even something about our native domestic education. I mean School of Animals.
One day, animals gathered in the forest and decided to open a school. Among them were a rabbit, a bird, a squirrel, a fish and an eel, and they all decided to form their own board of directors.
The rabbit suggested that running be included in the training program. (Well, how can you escape from your enemies without it: run away, hide in a hole and sit quietly until the enemy leaves you behind…)
At the bird’s suggestion, the program included, naturally, flying . (How could it be otherwise, you can soar in the clouds, soar in dreams, see new countries…)
Fish dreamed of including swimming in the program. (Oh, how good it is to relax in the water from stress and anxiety, free yourself from fatigue and blissfully enjoy the peace).
Belka insisted that it was simply necessary to introduce vertical tree climbing into the program . (How else can you climb to the top of a huge tree to see what the tree has there?)
The board of directors put all these things together and presented a curriculum.
