TIMELESS // 'How Do We Unlearn Our Conditioning' with Manish Jain - E253
Description
This TIMELESS turns everything on it's head. What if the most educated amongst us are the most disconnected?
Here we lovingly dismantle factory schooling, recall village intelligence, and discuss a practical path into gift culture. Manish Jain (co-founder of the UnSchooling movement) who walked out of Wall Street and Harvard, invites us to trade credentials for conscience, exams for experience, and scarcity for an experiment in trust.
We discuss education as being, not just knowing, starting with head, heart, hands, home. Manish speaks on gift culture, giving us the advice that when scarcity knocks, we up the gift, and ritualize generosity so trust compounds.
We invite you to bring home some of the ideas discussed in the episode such as running a treasure hunt by visiting 10 local people or places of skill, elders, makers, growers, repairers, musicians. Another idea is to host a Darya Dil exchange, where each person gifts a personally meaningful item with its story, and the receiver promises to pass it on within 3 months. And finally, we invite you to replace "resume" with a one page portfolio of lived projects, and publish it publicly.
We also recommend that you listen to the full Episode 39 here. And please do a treasure hunt where you are this week, you will be amazed by what you find!
Join us for The Rhythm: live meditation sessions twice a week with our community - no recordings to catch up on, just show up and breathe together.
