Mountain Way Scholars are life learners. They realize it is likely that there will always be challenges of some kind in life that may require a retooling of thought patterns. If one realizes this, keeping an open mind and going through the transitions will be easy. Also, being a Scholar keeps one curious and excited about being alive. When you are excited, the luster of life we all had as a child can then be rekindled. Mountain Way also has a standardized series of lectures that allows one to learn more about the inner workings of the system in order to bring you even greater understanding. Some of the subjects are; Preventive Nutrition, Mountain Way Principles, Mountain Way Personal Development, History of the Internal Arts, World Philosophies, Transpersonal Psychology, Holographic Theory as Applied to Perspectives on Reality, etc. As a Mountain Way Scholar, the goal is to enhance oneself and ultimately use the scholastic endeavors to become peacefully aware.
