“In early childhood, children develop a set of symbols that 'stand for' things they see in the world around them... Children are happy with symbolic drawing until about the age of eight or nine... when children develop a passion for realism. Our schools do not provide drawing instruction. Children try on their own to discover the secrets of realistic drawing, but nearly always fail and, sadly, give up on trying.” WorldGivingTryingChildrenAgeSchoolPassionSecretFailingChildhoodGiving UpEightDrawingNineSymbolsRealisticInstructionRealismSymbolicEarly Childhood Author:Betty Edwards
“How has all the knowledge in the world been gained but by the concentration of the powers of the mind? The world is ready to give up its secrets if we only know how to knock, how to give it the necessary blow. The strength and force of the blow come through concentration.

The more concentrated it is, the more power is brought to bear on one point; that is the secret.” IfsKnowsWorldGivingMindHumansForceSecretKnow HowReadyBearsLimitsGiving UpBlowConcentrationHuman MindPower Of The MindReady To Give Up Book:Raja Yoga: Conquering the Internal Nature Source: Raja Yoga: Conquering the Internal Nature
