Issues of Trust and Doubt: Constant Movement

Abstract

To trust and doubt is not the same as to trust or doubt. It is not optional to move from the doubt to the trust because both positions complement each other; for which one must dare to challenge and to trust. The issues on trust and doubt are always connected like a traveler pendulum between two poles that, because of the world’s physical nature, most likely will not stop moving. Fabio—the student—spoke of the spirituality he found in his college professors showing him the human and “complex” side of education, and reflected the complexity of human learning and development.

Is Spirituality taught in the universities? There is still no school on this, nor it is a main topic, but my professors have achieved doing, they have shown their human fiber (their humanity), with their defects, kindness, and contradictions. There is no other way of teaching than with the heart and spirit. They do not teach, that is a mere detail, they are the class. They are real scientists because they teach what they have experienced in their own lives, not doctrines of men who are lost in the fire, with the wind, and with the time. They teach what you do not forget: to think and to re-think.
