Great question!!

I think attachment reflects a lack of will to accept change whereby it inhibits learning!.!.!.!.!.!. and yes, the ability to learn is thus impeded!.!.!.!.!. however, it may be more about a negation of the necessity to learn than lack of faith in ability to learn!.!.!.!.!.!. in other words there is perhaps an overconfidence rather than lack of it!.!.!.!.!.!. a deliberately closed mind rather than an apprehensively hesitant one!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I was under the impression that attachment is apart of the process of learning!. Attachment as displayed in action is a display of that learning!.
The question then becomes of what learning, learning isnt solely a logical, verbal, emotional or otherwise its a process of the whole of your ability to retain information!.

Someone that becomes attached to the concept that they cant for say learn languages, may have done so due to experience of difficulty with it!. The question then becomes what difficulties, and is that based on attachments to other concepts or internal things!. The idea of being too stupid!? often untrue!. The idea of not being able to understand!? well isnt that the point!. The idea of !.!.!.!. all of these things a person may hold on to, may become attached to!.

Someone may become attached to material or other things - but it is still based on them having become/done so - so it ultimately is about the internal process!. Which given the theory that as a baby or a bit older they may not have been as such - they must have learned and learned well!.

So whilest the learning/attachment process may hinder future learning it seems odd to consider it a lack of faith in the ability to learn - as it can demonstrate a very strong faith in their ability to (have) learn(ed)!.

The question can simpy become one of personal awaking of what they have learned and changing that if it becomes one that is causing to many issues for them!.

But then I ponder if I am following what you mean by attachment and learning!. Perhaps we dont attach the same meanings to those words!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I like your smile! :D
Yes, it does, if the attatchment is to this world! However it doesn't reflect a 'lack' of faith, as much as it stifles the room to grow and learn!.
It is negative, in that it pulls you down, like gravity or a magnet!.
Attatchment to things and others is natural and we must work hard to stay above it!
Good question!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I don't have any trouble learning, but I don't deal well with change!. I become emotionally attached to inanimate objects the same as I become attached to people!. I have a favourite chair!. Don't mess with it!. I have a favourite wife, well, you get my drift!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It's true that learning often involves the willingness to detach from beliefs that seem false!.

But learning also attaches you more firmly to the beliefs that seem true!.

So No!.

I think learning IS the desire to attach yourself to truth!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

yes!. if you're not attached, why would you want to learn!? take stupid college courses for example!. If you're taking really boring stuff that you don't like, you're going to do bad in that class usually!. This analogy is the same for your question!.!.!.I think, wait, I'm retarded, =(!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
