Yes. Cultivation does not require high education first, nor is it reserved for those who understand profound scriptures. I admire scholars able to cite classics, but does inability to follow them mean ordinary people cannot practice? Sheng Zhen Men hopes everyone gains useful reminders and wisdom from their own life.
This is also how I discuss the Dao following what is natural. Reflect on experiences you personally lived: what did you learn, and how can it help you become better? Whatever your present intelligence or aptitude, begin with your life and learn step by step.
