What a wonderful topic! The ‘law of learning’ essentially means:

👉 Everything in life is a lesson.

We are here to learn, to develop, to gain experience. Mistakes, successes, encounters – everything contributes to our inner maturation. You could say: Those who don’t learn stand still. Here are a few figurative representations to explain the ‘law of learning’:

1. An endless staircase leading upwards

A person standing on a long staircase. Some steps are bright (successes), others are fragile (mistakes). However, each step is necessary to climb higher. 🪜 Symbol for: Learning is a path, step by step, with ups and downs.

2. An open book with light rising from its pages

A giant book is lying open. Rays of light are rising from its pages, symbols of knowledge (e.g. a heart for compassion, a cogwheel for reason, a leaf for nature). 📖✨ Symbol for: Every experience is a page in the book of life. Learning brings enlightenment.

3. A tree with annual rings

A large tree with visible annual rings. Each ring symbolises a year, a lesson, a growth. 🌳🌀 Symbol for: With every experience, our inner tree grows. Learning happens over time.

4. A person with a backpack full of experiences

A hiker walks a long way carrying a backpack. Inside: books, heart, stone (for difficult lessons), flowers (for beautiful moments). 🎒🚶‍♂️ Symbol for: We take everything we experience with us. Learning means gaining and carrying experiences.

5. A broken vessel that has been repaired (Kintsugi)

A bowl that had been broken in the past was repaired with gold (using the Japanese kintsugi method). 🥣💛 Symbol for: Mistakes and fractures are also part of our learning and make us more beautiful, wiser.

6. Child growing and looking at different ‘versions’ of themselves

A young child looking at older versions of themselves: as an adolescent, an adult, an old person. 👶➡️👦➡️🧑➡️👴 Symbol for: We grow and learn throughout our lives.

7. Butterfly emerging from a caterpillar

A caterpillar that pupates and then hatches as a butterfly. 🦋 Symbol for: Learning transforms us – from ignorance to wisdom.
