Sapere aude! dare to be wise, have the courage to think for yourself
rather than blindly accepting the opinions of authorities. - Motto of the University of Otago, AU
Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance.
This nonage is self imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding, but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance.
Dare to know! - Philosopher Immanuel Kant from his essay "What is Enlightenment?"
We are living in a time when many need to take this attitude or motto as our everyday beingness. In keeping with the theme of this blog it is what happens when one learns to use the pendulum. Stimulating and trusting in your intution as you work with intentions will move you to this place of thinking for your self. Thanks Sonie Johnson for this quote.
