Speaking Basics: Uncluttering Life, Embracing Simplicity through Unlearning

Embarking on life's journey, learning and growth become our companions from the very moment we take our first breath. As toddlers, we stumble, fall, and then triumphantly learn to walk and run. Educational institutions usher us into a world of exams, assignments, and the pursuit of higher levels of knowledge. Life propels us into the market, teaching us the art of earning a livelihood and managing the following complexities.

We keep on piling up the learnings one over another like books on the shelf till the weight of books becomes unbearable to the shelf. We appear to have acquired a lot of knowledge and obtained various degrees, but something still misses our lives. The pile-up exercise and our tendency to look outside for solutions have confused our minds and complicated our lives. We seem ignorant that we have a sensitive and innocent part of ourselves due to its low voice. It suggests us to unlearn. It encourages us to be kind to ourselves and live a wholesome and joyful life. It directs us toward wisdom as Anthony de Mello said, “Wisdom comes to those who learn nothing, unlearn everything.”

At Speaking Basics, we recognize the significance of unlearning. Our mission is to amplify the voice of that sensitive and innocent part within you. Objectively, we wish to speak the language of fundamentals and provide you with the tools to embark on your unlearning journey. We invite you to join us as we navigate the path toward something basic and elemental—where the profound beauty of simplicity transforms lives.

Welcome to Speaking Basics, where we unlearn, grow, and thrive together.
