The Wisdom of Children: Curing the Mental Virus of Dogma

“The man old in days will not hesitate to ask a little child of seven days about the place of life, and he will live. For many who are first will become last, and they will become one and the same.” – Gospel of Thomas (Logion 4)

As most people age, they naturally become more close-minded and fixed in their beliefs. It feels safer to accept the mental programming and never question it.

Imagine if all your beliefs were erased from your mind this very second, your beliefs about how this world works, success, status, money, religion, politics, nationality, religion, culture, society, your identity, etc.
