OK nemo, let's give you the benefit of the doubt.
What's your plan? How are you going to do it?
I have already done it and am still doing it some more. I am just mapping it now, so as to make it an available option for those that are not aware of the possibility. Much of what has been written here by me are the pieces that make up the cognitive view, that I use.
Previously I have asked you to come forward to say how many earths there are in your view. The reason it is important to get you to offer an answer, was because either ones cognitive view accepts that there is just one earth, or as soon as an individual even entertains the idea that there exists more than one earth, then the next step is how many earths are there then?
Two, three lol, well then if there is more than one then it gets very difficult to put a limit to how many earths there are doesn't it? Then/when infinity comes into view just a little cognitively. The next step is, if there actually is an infinity of earths, why and how am I on this particular one. What is fixating me to this particular one, and how do I change which one I am on.
DJ The Power of Silence:
"A somersault of thought into the inconceivable," he explained with an air of resignation, "is the descent of the spirit; the act of breaking our perceptual barriers. It is the moment in which man's perception reaches its limits. Sorcerers practice the art of sending scouts, advance runners, to probe our perceptual limits. This is another reason I like poems. I take them as advance runners. But, as I've said to you before, poets don't know as exactly as sorcerers what those advance runners can accomplish."
"I'm going to tell you something fundamental about sorcerers and their acts of sorcery," he went on. "Something about the somersault of their thought into the inconceivable."
Then DJ goes on to talk about Calixto Muni
"The sorcerer storyteller who changes the ending of the 'factual' account," he said, "does it at the direction and under the auspices of the spirit. Because he can manipulate his elusive connection with intent, he can actually change things. The sorcerer storyteller signals that he has intended it by taking off his hat, putting it on the ground, and turning it a full three hundred and sixty degrees counterclockwise. Under the auspices of the spirit, that simple act plunges him into the spirit itself. He has let his thought somersault into the inconceivable."
Don Juan lifted his arm above his head and pointed for an instant to the sky above the horizon.
"Because his pure understanding is an advance runner probing that immensity out there," don Juan went on, "the sorcerer storyteller knows without a shadow of doubt that somewhere, somehow, in that infinity, at this very moment the spirit has descended. Calixto Muni is victorious. He has delivered his people. His goal has transcended his person."
(nemo) I use these example from CC's books to show that what I am saying is not outside what has been covered in those books. It is my belief because of CC's proclivity for dreaming that the books tend to appeal to dreamers and dreaming, but within them DJ did give sufficient warnings and reasons for not giving it the primary emphasis within the teachings. Dreaming as you can see is put in the same importance level as feeling and seeing.
Now I can answer the two missing elements in this diagram, but I will honour what DJ did and not fill them in. You can see that they are connected to will. They are only indirectly through will connected to the rest of what makes up a being, a singularity.
Like I said when I first started here in the Egypt thread that I will articulate another view as best I can for yaw'll, and then you can take it or leave it. The diagram shows a reality where those two question marks are not even a conscious issue thus an awareness incorporating a world view that only uses those identified elements, creates a world by default first attention programming. As I have also said before that that is just as legitimate a view, because that is also an assemblage point position one can have. What I am offering is the rational for navigating infinity along with a working view.
Michael, In lieu of teaching directly I will work on a list of rules of thumb and post it here when I am finished with it. That would absolve me of from leaving this view high and dry without a teacher, as you seem to think is an issue.
Teaching is a little weird, from my view, because in a way you become bound to getting something across to another, whatever it is, when it starts to get into a view of reality, then it takes on being an advocate for one view over another, and in the case of my view, no view is more relevant than any other so being left with a paradoxical situation, as not really being an advocate for someone to change their view one iota, if they choose not to. I am only willing to offer the view, if it works for whomever comes across it.
As you can see I have been consistent from the start not to say your view is irrelevant, because it is not at all, yet you did not have my view in your repertoire of possible descriptions, in the way i offer it and now you do :>). It may sink in as something you would like to adopt, or you can reject it and even ridicule it, and warn people against adopting it or delete it, that's my friend is totally up to you.
