Your Reality/ Perspective

Control the flow of information, and you control the reality that the information comprises.

Control the creation of words and you control the language of communication and how  information may be transferred..  

Control the definition of words and you control how words may be interpreted.

The power of words and language is the power to redefine your reality by changing your perceptions.

For example, a “freedom fighter” and a “terrorist” is strictly dependent upon which side you identify with in relation.  Consider the “rebel” of 1776 and the “rebel” of 1861 or the “terrorist” of 2001.

Since all of reality consists of our perceived perspective of information and their relationships, we may change our reality by changing how we relate to the available information, and/or changing our perspective of those relationships and the information.

Begin by identifying what you wish to exclude from your reality and make it irrelevant.  Do not ignore it, as that creates resistance which requires perception and strengthens the continued existence.  Cause irrelevancy by redefining the information and relationship thereby making it truly irrelevant to your desired existence.

Perspective, Change & Destruction

Perspective, Change & Destruction

1. Everything is experienced due to perspective; perspective is existence.

2. Perspective is made up of symbols and their relationships or associations; reality, or existence, is not perceived directly but through a series of symbols and their associations.

3. Value is determined by associations of symbols; in a vacuum a single thing has no value at all.

4. The associations between symbols determined by desire or repulsion forming value add depth to perspective and a greater belief to reality as a non-illusion; however, perceptions are all we experience while assigning value to the symbols based upon association. Symbols are not perceived directly, but the associations are.

5. Everything in our perspective is a part of us.  Generally speaking, proximity determines how relative, or how high the value, is within our perspective.  Our bodies are the association of symbols with the highest value within our perspective.

6. Through control of the associations of our symbols, and managing the value of the relationships, we control our perspective.  

7. Creation of new symbols and associations can be tools to control other symbols and associations when changing our perspective/existence; tools can be new languages that cause different associations, mental constructs that alter our perception and relationship with symbols and/or associations, etc.

8. Since all is our perspective which consists of associations and symbols, these symbols and associations also affect each other and our association with other associations and symbols; everything is interdependent.

Using the same representations and maintaining the same relationships, or attempting to, yield the same results and allows your perspective to remain relatively unchanged.  Similar to moving the furniture around the room-- same room, same furniture, same house, same neighborhood, same thoughts and activities regarding the previous, no real changes.

Create new representations for the physical to establish new relationships and your perspective has changed causing change in your physical existence.  Instead of moving the furniture around, throw it all out.  Put in new flooring and paint the walls.  Cause your home to represent itself in a different way to you so that a new relationship with yourself and your home is created.  While remaining in the same neighborhood, you’ve created a new home.  This new relationship ripples out to initiate adjustments in perspective and facilitate other changes.  Desire greater change?  Move, or build a new home to your specifications based upon relationships you wish to forge

Change the way you think about things and perceive the world, and your perspective naturally changes with it

Destroy the way you currently think and act about everything in order to create a new life.  

Your Mind controls it all; therefore, control your Mind and create your Universe.

Delusion Commentary

"We find that whole communities suddenly fix their minds upon one object, and go mad in its pursuit; that millions of people become simultaneously impressed with one new delusion, and run after it, till their attention is caught by some new folly more captivating than the first.
…Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, and one by one." 

-– Charles Mackay, Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds, 1852

Your Mind is Not a Computer

Excellent essay on the nature of the mind and provides some basic philosophy and principles for perception and perspective.

Death and Transformation

“Being” is akin to the peak of a wave in the ocean, and death is merely the peak transforming the state of coherency into a different state.  The peak may now be an eddie in the wave once it curls under or settles into the wave; regardless, no water is lost and all remains a part of the wave and the ocean.

The body and mind are no more real and no more fictional than thoughts, ideas, concepts and sensory inputs. Space and time, are also dreamed up concepts that exist nowhere in reality except through the perceptions of someone that experiences them.  Certainly, space and time are useful tools that add texture and complexity in this dream, but they are still phantoms.

All is "real"; All is illusion.

Everything that you know, sense, feel, see, perceive, think, etc., is a representation-- a symbol.

Even in a sense of time, everything you seem to experience "now" is actually infinitesimally in the past. Not just when you look at the sun as it was 8 minutes ago, or the moon a second ago, but also your hand; a very small slice of time, but still in the past.  

The "now" is also a representation, a monstrous set of symbols perceived by us from the past and to be acted upon in the future. We are constantly re-creating our pasts and futures through the maintenance and use of our symbols and the relationships that we participate in with them.   There is only this “now” which is our current perceptions of symbols and relationships.  All else are probabilities of occurrence outside of our perceptions.

The perception of  symbols and their values and relationships are the only reality, because nothing else exists. When we learn to work with our perceptions we are actually learning how to make them work for us.

By moving away from the known and "accepted" toward the unknown, or previously unperceived, you open yourself up to other probabilities.   Within those new probabilities you "discover" it in your new perspective because it was the "next logical step" from your old perspective and understanding of your symbols. This discovery of new symbols, by whatever means, is typically known as creating. However, all that is new is the perceptions and associations of symbols with their relationships in your perspective. Therefore, creating is actually discovery of new associations and relationships of symbols and a perception of other probabilities through the management of symbols.

Creation necessitates that transformation of one to another, and often this is perceived as death, the gateway to another perspective.

However, we are dying all the time.  Every cell within our bodies is completely replaced every seven years, many cells much more often.  Where did we go?  Our infant and child selves transformed years ago and no longer exist.  

The First Law of Thermodynamics, The Law of Energy Conservation, states that energy can neither be created or destroyed.  Therefore, energy can only be converted, or transformed, from one state to another.  This conversion from one state to another  is death itself. 

Death is the harbinger to a new state of being.
