On Reading and Understanding...


What is an understanding? Actually the terrain of our brain is soft and spongy. It can absorb anything and can come up with anything. But it can be hard and barren if you don't do any reading. Reading is not the food for the the thought, it serves as a fertilizer to ensure brain fertility. So in another words just read on any topic despite of little understanding or misunderstanding of the topic initially. What might results from it, is the growth of all sorts of understanding taking the form of what you can see best in your mind. And you know what? That understanding is none other than `your unique and genuine understanding and now has become your knowledge and thus part of you.' Remember, no two persons would understand the same thing in a very similar fashion.

So keep on reading and the growth of your understanding would take the form that you yourself has never thought about it before. But I could not imagine a brain that is hard, dry, and barren because of one's ignorance on the benefits of reading. Things and opinions then are so fixed and it has become a fixation as can be seen in some culture that has not been touched by modern civilization. So opened up to the world by doing at least a small and minor reading of anything for a start. Then be ready for a big surprise, the world is then all yours. Not only that, with reading you can create worlds of worlds of anything and everything. Good luck in your reading...
