Top 10 Indicators of Wisdom by Eric Dodson

Am curious to bring these ideas about "Wisdom and Education" into conversation with

A) my actual < > virtual Harbin Hot Springs' ethnographic project

 B) MIT OCW-centric wiki World University and School developing online in ~200 countries and 7,111 known living languages (and now with the emergence of online learning due to many major universities heading online due to novel coronavirus fears)

 C) this blog as an idea generator, and regarding its writing / thinking / philosophy even


For Dodson:

Wisdom is the ability to discern what life is really showing us, and then the ability to respond harmoniously and skillfully, and that wisdom is something LIVED, rather than abstract and intellectual.

(Apple dictionary definition: "the quality of having experience, knowledge and good judgement")

World's problems per Dodson (and Dodson identifies a bit as a hippie in some videos)
a) relating to our selves
b) relating to others
c) relating to the world more generally


*
A) my actual < > virtual Harbin Hot Springs' ethnographic project -

Wisdom is traveling to and soaking in the Harbin warm pool and pools - as meditation - and hanging out there?


Re World's problems per Dodson

a) head up to Harbin and soak in the warm pool
b) hippies to the hot springs, and hang out in the pool area
c) a kind of Harbin philosophy of the world, from up in Lake County, California
d) and virtually ~ http://tinyurl.com/p62rpcg ~ https://twitter.com/HarbinBook ~ http://bit.ly/HarbinBook ~



*
B) MIT OCW-centric wiki World University and School, developing online in ~200 countries and 7,111 known living languages (and now with the emergence of online learning due to many major universities heading online due to novel coronavirus fears) -

Wisdom is free, universal, highest quality, online education in all ~200 countries and in all 7111 known living languages as wiki schools esp. (learning and regarding highest quality learning resources in conversation, and regarding sharing ideas through wiki especially - in all languages and countries; helping many others is a central part of this fascinating and beneficial project)


Re World's problems per Dodson

a) at WUaS, think about wisdom and explore wiki teaching/learning this for oneself
b) relate to others in classes in group video via conference method, and in a new online collegial academic milieu
c) plan and code for wiki teachers and learners in all 7,111 living languages, and code for 7.5 billion people and even regarding UBI experiments, and STEM careers with WUaS degrees



*
C) this blog (scott-macleod.blogspot.com) as an idea generator, and regarding its writing / thinking / philosophy even -

Wisdom is exploring wisdom, and related ideas, - partly daily in a kind of writing 'now' moment, and even with a kind of sense of adventure and passion and connectedness as well.


Re World's problems per Dodson

a) write and think about them (but not be too hard on oneself per Guidelines for Practicing a Musical Instrument, see item #8 - http://scottmacleod.com/GuidelinesPracticingMusicalInstrument.htm - and in general, I don't think Eric touches on this whatsoever - http://scottmacleod.com/GuidelinesPracticingLovingBlissvavMusicalInstrument.htm regarding the potential benefits of eliciting loving bliss neurophysiology) consciousness-wise

b) develop communications and language with others

c) I find myself engaging both kind of Friendly/Quaker/UU, as well as MIT and Stanford and academic approaches to world problems in this blog

What roles do / could

evolutionary biology &

language

play in Eric Dodson's thinking, I wonder ... ?

About Eric:

Eric received his B.S. in computer science from Pennsylvania State University, his M.S. in computer science from the University of Delaware, and his M.A. and Ph. D. in phenomenological psychology from Duquesne University. Eric's past areas of interest have included (1) exploring the psychology of teaching from an existential-phenomenological standpoint, (2) rethinking the meaning of academic intellectuality in terms of humanistic psychology, and (3) exploring the psychological significance of living in a postmodern, telematic, technological world. Eric's current interests lie in Buddhist psychology, and in innovating a psychology of decadence and related phenomena.

Andean cock-of-the-rock: 'Wisdom & Education,' by Eric L Dodson. Just happened on his philosophy too: 'Heidegger in 12 Minutes' and 'Nietzsche in 12 Minutes,' which were interesting, Wiki-See related @WorldUnivAndSch wiki subjects /Education and /Philosophy ... Top 10 Indicators of Wisdom by Eric Dodson: 10. Kindness, compassion & generosity 9. Appreciation and gratitude 8. The ability to hold things loosely 7. Balance 6. Playfulness, humor and laughter 5. Spontaneity and creativity 4. Adventure, verve and passion 3. Curiosity and openness 2. Inhabiting the moment fully 1. Panoramic awareness and holism .... Only a few of the above are related 'labels' in this blog: care, humor, creativity, consciousness, now ... Am wondering how Eric's above indicators of wisdom would inform psychotherapy even * * * New! - Bach on Bagpipe Project on Scottish Small Pipes as exploration actually & @WorldUnivAndSch especially re Bach Google Doodle AI . . . & possibly re my @scottmacleod upcoming 'Honey in the Bag' SSP album * * * UC Berkeley Hearst Museum's Mind-Altering Anthro exhibit

http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/10/andean-cock-of-rock-wisdom-education-by.html

And with regards to my A), B) and C), am keeping in mind this line from the Desiderata -

"Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time."

https://www.desiderata.com/desiderata.html

(which thinking I'm not sure Eric touches on in his "Wisdom and Education" video).

Dick, Lucy, Ma, Alden, Ann, 

This novel coronavirus in the media could be a great run through for an outbreak of something, - and internet-communications-wise in all 200 countries' languages, especially.

Who's creating it and how? And what's its relationship to intact democratic governments in potentially a growing number of all 200 countries too, I wonder? We may be getting a preview news' and information- or data-wise, of what we might see in a war, or in the 1918 Spanish flu in 2024 too, or a nuclear accident, or an asteroid hitting the planet, etc.

Re intact democratic governments, am appreciating that Elizabeth Warren - and regarding Harvard as knowledge generator - is Tweeting health sources for novel CoronaVirus ... 


What are your thoughts about COVID--19 and society - and regarding its current ripples - and the election in Nov too?

Fond regards, Scott

Good morning, M!

How are you? And how is your garden growing?

... 

Regarding novel coronavirus 'meme madness' ('cultural units/words spread by imitation' seeking to mitigate risks from potential deleterious gene replicating) ... am asking myself amid all the hype, is this real? Is any of this real?  And see also - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/03/sexual-selection-in-birds-thanks-to.html - in which I do ask if this is real ... with specific lines of reasoning too.

And regarding my email "Welcome to your new home!" 8 days ago to you:

"Was thinking last night how it could be nice for you to have a major university and a related hospital close to you (a little like the Friends' Quaker-rooted Kendal at Hanover regarding Dartmouth College) - so you wouldn't get lonely, since I was concerned about this for you too re your move - but then it occurred to me that you could have major university and a related hospital close to you from your computer."

... would like to get a major university with teaching hospital / medical school in all ~200 countries' official languages going much more effectively soon ... and for you at Longwood from your computer even! ... am working on it :)

Appreciating too Eric Dodson's realism here - "Wisdom and Education" video https://youtu.be/hBa7rGQXupU - with echoes of George L Alexander MDs' thinking too (and since both overlapped in Pittsburgh, PA, they might have known each other).

You'll find this in my blog post from today here - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/03/bizet-sheep-wisdom-worldunivandsch.html - (and see, too, this blog post from October 2019 re Eric Dodson's "Top 10 Indictors of Wisdom" ...
