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.
