Rote learning is a symptom of the rot in Thai Buddhism
Re: “Early rote-learning disables children for life”, Have Your Say, yesterday.
Social media has increased public awareness, but even that is now being controlled with censorship and abuse of personal information. Socialism, where the many are controlled by a self-serving few, is taking a stranglehold globally. The forces behind the globalist new world order are more than supportive of the rote-learning system used in Thailand. The system is, however, completely at odds with true Buddhism.
The simple solution to Thailand’s child-inhibiting education system would be to teach the real principles of Lord Buddha. Enlightening children through self-awareness and general awareness would induce thought in their developing minds, but individual thinking is the enemy of the ruling elite. That is the reason that Buddhism has been relegated to the status of a pseudo-religion that encourages worship of ubiquitous effigies of Buddha. Monks are no longer teachers of people, as they should be as followers of Buddha, but heralded as “holy” beings to be worshipped and cared for in “holy” surroundings by a submissive public.
Applying the 2,500 year old, down-to-earth, unadulterated self-teachings of Lord Buddha to 21st century Thailand and the world beyond, would thwart the elite cabal’s pluralistic subjugating ambitions; including the debilitating rote system of education.
