Then, I purchased a lottery ticket as the symbol. I didn't make a symbol because you told me once it's better to get something new to you. [snips] [/quote] [b]To create something new, rather than get something new. [/b] (tuuuuur's representation of his "old" toy car is somewhat different as I interfered somewhat in the process in order to illustrate, similar to an interference with your 'island' query) [/quote] Chaol, I love ya but I am confused. The bold above, you tell me to create something new. You told me in a post (in the link below) that symbols we create ourselves are not as powerful. I can make my own sigils and would prefer to do so but because of the post in this link, I quit making them and started finding symbols...such as a lottery ticket. http://www.godlikeproductions.com/forum1/message872590/pg175#33958481 So, do you see why I am confused? [/quote] Hi. I believe you may have misinterpreted it. Please check again. [/quote] I am sure I have probably misinterpreted. No problem with that. But, check what again? In the first post, I asked about using a symbol I received in meditation. You said no, it's not as powerful because it came from my mind. Anyway, the question is: is it more powerful to start off with a new symbol I create myself, for example taking toothpicks and taping them together....or is it more powerful to find something, like purchase a lottery ticket, which is a new symbol to me? [/quote] A purchased lottery ticket would not be a ~new symbol but one with meaning all ready. The toothpicks would serve as a more effective symbol. (For your reference, I think the quote you are talknig about is, "Just remember that when you draw the symbol you are not capturing its essence but only drawing a reference." I believe you were implying drawing symbols on paper, is that about it? [b]I was just saying to make a new, physically-oriented symbol rather than drawing a symbol on paper. Either way, it should be something that can well-interact with your perspective... something as physical as you are[/b].) [/quote] Thank you so much. And yes, that's about it! This clears so many things up for me. I see the value in what you have said. It's the only way to get something that is w/o meaning but also relative to the other symbols in my environment! :hf: Major Man, with this information in bold above, I think we'd better figure out how to make a symbol. I'm not wild about toothpicks either. What else can we make? [/quote]

Hello!
I have been living in this world for some time now.
I came from a place also named Earth, much like this planet. There are a number of differences between my home and yours.
I thought it would be interesting to share a few things with you that are relatively common knowledge where I am from. My reasons for doing so will probably be more apparent in the future.
* Consciousness does not exist (but relationships do)
* Matter is gravity that has been structured
* We are not human (we are perspectives)
* When the totality of something cannot be grasped, it appears infinite.
* Space is not physical
* There is no "now" or "here", but relationships.
We use a kind of language like you use numbers here. Numbers, representations of abstract concepts, were 'invented' to work more easily with the world around us. Our language is no different.
If it were invented today it would probably be thought of as existing in parallel with science. A new kind of science.
This language also enables the shifting of perspective like a kind of mental technology. Some of you may find it quite interesting.
If anyone is interested in learning more please let me know.
Thanks.
