Q'uo: The harvest began in 1987

To clarify.. the 'learning about oneself' comes through seeing those things about yourself that you get to express or are required to express or are shown in forming an appropriate response to catalyst?

Learning about self tends to result in becoming more conscious or accepting of oneself and of catalyst. The more conscious one is, the more efficient the response to catalyst is and the higher the level of catalyst may be recognized and processed.

When we talk about determined requirements or appropriateness, that would be a kind of secondary assessment. For example, from the circumstantial standpoint of some imposed limitations, which are often transient and illusory. I think more important to learning is recognition of catalyst, for example one's discomfort. This relative imbalance, perhaps a vague nagging feeling, is constantly informing us of worthwhile learning opportunities. These feelings may be explored in order to learn what the disposition is suggesting about ourselves.

"...in the chance to remember that which has been lost in the forgetting there is a nimiety of opportunity for positive polarization."
