Welcome to Autodidact.
an unfolding by Laban LaGreca.
This website is built on the premise that Man is at the center of Reality. His task is to grow, or unfold, in his unique way. The aim of both Nature and Culture is to assist Man in this divine unfolding.
Self-education is how Man can assist God in his unfolding. A proper self-education is not for hoarding knowledge. It’s true aim is to make Individuals— unique and fruitful Men of Character.
To be unique, requires one to be deeply acquainted with their Self. The aim of this self-knowledge is to find one’s Work. To be fruitful, requires that one perform this Work with diligence. The aim of every Work is the cultivation of Virtue in both its maker and consumer.
For Man must refine and shape himself, if he is to make anything of value. The fruit of his labor will then be ingested by all who encounter it. If the fruit is good, it will produce Life in its recipient, It will inspire and accelerate his unfoldment.
This continues the cycle of self-education throughout each generation, With the hope that it will produce more and more Souls of Virtue.
