How can we make our teaching so potent?

The real difficulty, the difficulty that has baffled the sages of all times, is rather this: how can we make our teaching so potent in the emotional life of man, that its influence should withstand the pressure of the elemental psychic forces in the individual?

(Albert Einstein, from an address at Swarthmore College, 1938).

Wolf pack strategy and cooperation

The first 3 wolves are the older or sick and they set the pace of the group. If it was on the contrary, they would be left behind and lost contact with the pack. In ambush case they would be sacrificed.

The following are the 5 strongest. In the center follow the remaining members of the pack, and at the end of the group the other 5 stronger.

Last, alone, follows the alpha wolf. It controls everything from the rear. That position can control the whole group, decide the direction to follow and anticipate the attacks of opponents.

The pack follows the rhythm of the elders and the head of command that imposes the spirit of mutual help not leaving anyone behind. A lesson to be learned.
