When you think of “learning” or “education” you may think of acquiring practical skills, scientific knowledge or simply factual or historical information about the world.
How to build a house; how to fix a car engine; mathematics; human psychology; history of ancient Greece etc.
But what if you could obtain an education which is not only professionally, scientifically or practically useful – like helping to create a new career – but also personally and spiritually expansive in that your life is transformed in some meaningful and permanent way. This is a type of education known as “transformative learning”. - aleftrust.org
