The Common Understanding
|
The
Common Understanding is the fund of knowledge into which we are born; from which we spring on our journeys through human consciousness..... The beauty of the Common Understanding is that it is assembled over many centuries by ultimately selfless people... In their journeys through human consciousness many people forget the indefinable nature of the task facing them.... They forget that they are here to learn and to contribute... In the course of this forgetting many of us become petty and selfish... But this only lasts a short time because people die and in this ultimately selfless act they leave behind whatever they have learned or discovered in their journeys... The sum total of all these discoveries that those of us still journeying can remember or record is the Common Understanding.... The sum total of these recorded or remembered discoveries becomes the best answer that we, through the generations, can provide to the question "Why are we here....?" "But it is the question, not the vast panoply of answers, which unites us, and that we commend to you, here, today. The vast panoply of answers have their own distinct, albeit subjective, elements of grace and beauty, but it is the question that brings us together. It is the question that puts us all in the same boat. It is the question that makes us brothers and sisters. So, .......................let that be a lesson to you. And, if I could just add, with every ounce of my being and every particle of my soul... (reaches slowly for baby's hand, then shakes) Welcome aboard." |
