It is not education alone in a single generation. But it is education from the big picture perspective. All our education system does is condition the masses. It does not educate. Education means you can use it. You can't really use our education because it is partial. It forces you to work for others to actually learn how things work. But then the silos never allow that so you can never leave the system and compete.
I come from a family of prodigous savants and they were broken with the changes in education in the 1940s when we adopted the Nazi education system style.
We went from all brilliant to all broken in that one generation.
We did not recover until my generation. That was four generations of sociopaths, forced institutionalization, forced lobotomies and prodigies who never actualized in adulthood. We left Europe to get away from it only to have it come over.
The larger the ability to perspective take the more damage was done. The intentional destruction of the big picture thinkers is very real.
My father and sister were music prodigies, my three children are prodigies in math and acting/performance prodigies. I was nothing. Yet in adulthood they found out my intelligence is a form of genius. Now all the sudden I am not a POS. This after years of telling me something is wrong with me. The reason I was not found and just tortured is my giftedness is big picture humanities. Now this is needed. So I am allowed to be.
I could spend the rest of my life detailing all the ways our systems destroys the humanities gifted.
You are correct that not all heal. But that is for those deemed "gifted" due to the way we measure IQ.
I am not talking about how our system lies about intelligence. It only really tests for math and science. Math savants rarely have the somatic side as developed as the cognitive, to their detriment. But my math savant child has both and she is more brilliant for it.
I was referring to those gifted in natural intelligence or holistic intelligence. They can see how it is and feel how it should be. They can heal themselves.
My brain has unified intelligence in cognitive, somatic, meta and infra cognitive intelligence. Probably more but they can't be sure. I had to create and define the last cognition. My background and education is in tech. I could not sit in our psychology classes because every cell in my body screamed it was lies and oppression.
Our system are only interested in testing for IQ because those are the smartest slaves. They can not feel their captivity so they produce and can be held up as the ideal standard. I feel and then know and can articulate that knowledge to other. That is what holistic intelligence's gift is.
