Question your own beliefs

Eklea’s teachings were certainly the most difficult to grasp. What exactly is awareness—or consciousness?

To help the Espers, she always tried to use concrete examples.

And the theme today was: “You should always question your own beliefs.”
A younger one asked, “But if that’s what we’ve been taught, shouldn’t our beliefs be right?”

“When you learn, there are many conditions that can shape what your belief truly becomes. Who taught you—and their feelings at the time. Or what your feelings were. Or how much you already knew about the subject. Or what your best friend thinks about the same thing. Or your siblings. Or your parents.”

The more you question yourself, the more you develop your curiosity and stop accepting things just as they are.

“Does it mean we shouldn’t trust anyone?”

Eklea smiled. “No. But you should remember that no one is perfect, or knows everything. And knowing that is a step toward becoming more aware.”
