Today I am working in a new place of excitement, location and expectations in regards to professional services and services to clientele.
Upon talking with some individuals, I can't help but think of some so called professionals that I work with in a Spiritual environment and how some of these people are wolves in sheep's clothing. These individuals are out to make a buck, put lesser class people in their place and come off to communities that- they love, respect and have deep, true, authentic compassion for all classes of Aboriginal populations.
I hate to be the first person to not only look past these so called professionals and say that, they(professionals) are formatted from deep within the (monster)education system to bring self contained communities,thoughts, ideas and agendas which come in the many forms of denial, deceit and lies. Mind you that this is done right in the open. These professionals have to be more than just convincing to the main community, they have to be mind magicians and make thoughts and ideas appear that, the whole community loves and respects them(because,hey they are professionals). How, you might ask can this happen? Why would commuties allow this to happen? Don't these communities care?
To be honest, communities want to care and at the same time they don't have the tools to fight for the principals of caring. Which these professionals use to their advantage and discretion.So, when a person like me arrives on to their stomping ground, they know how to manipulate the micro-community to make sure that someone of my caliber does not stand a chance against their mind control and tactics. If you know anything about the Roman principal of divide and conquer, you will than know how in micro communities these professionals make their living and killing.
I stand out amongst these professionals in numerous ways. I do not dress like them, I do not think like them, I do not pray like these professionals. I do not allow my professional thinking and frame of mind rule my being and frame of mind. I am a people person. I allow everyone in my immediate circle to feel very important, content and whole-no matter who it is I encounter. Unlike some of the professionals I have to deal with, they have a tendency to "have" to know everything about everything and let people know that they are the experts in everything, just because they attended some elite post secondary academic INSTITUTE.
Yes, academics can be good, but only for the little school children that were reared into following the teacher everywhere, asking all the "right" questions and staying after to study with the teacher. To make it worse, these individuals probably learned at a very young age to put " people in their place"-who did not think or act like them.Don't get me wrong, I don't hate the educational field, because I am currently in a post-secondary school, but I was advised by a few authentic elders never to let modern day school ruin my frame of mind and never let it become my way of thinking. This was told to me when I was very young, I never knew how powerful those words would be one day and how that information was formatting my soul, life and self-respect for the larger, more whole some things in life.
Education has compartmentalized everything in our daily lives. It has even entered our ceremonies and grown to be a nuisance and a threat in which few people know know how to fully understand and deal with.HMM. Jay
