Experience.

[china]

What do we mean by experience? Is there anything new or original in experience? Experience is a bundle of memories responding to a challenge and it can respond only according to its background, and the cleverer you are at interpreting the experience the more it responds. So you have to question not only the experience of another but your own experience. If you don't recognise an experience it isn't an experience at all. Every experience has already been experienced or you wouldn't recognise it. You recognise an experience as being good, bad, beautiful, holy and so on according to your conditioning, and therefore the recognition of an experience must inevitably be old.
What are your thoughts on/or experience of.... reality .

Experience is overrated. Even Blake preferred innocence.

Experience is also the learned body language of motion in which we indulge ourselves daily once it is a learned discipline.

Without the experience of having successfully completed motion and all the accompanying body language ... we would be locked into our immobile physical selves.

This having nothing to do with experiential learning .... just throwing an odd thought into the mix....

Come to think of it, some experiential learning is definitely "locked"...
