[quote:Unit3:MV84NzI1OTBfMzU0NDE5OTRfRjdFMzYwMzE=] [quote:Chaol:MV84NzI1OTBfMzU0Mzg1NTZfNzM2QTI0RUY=] As an addendum to the above, the enterprising mind may want to think about how I work with the Genius. Of course I will not tell you how exactly (figuring it out is half of the fun!) but I will tell you a story. There once was a boy named Peter, who wanted to teleport far far away. His dog had died and his mother cursed, and he just wanted to escape that day. "Oh how! How can I get the fudge out of my fridge?", said he When his eyes had cleared from the heart that teared, magically there appeared a genie. "Aren't you the genie from the last story?", said Peter. "Indeed, but you're not to remember that anymore!", the genie said, surprised. "What [i]else[/i] do you remember from before?" "I remember that if I symbolize a place I wish to be, and make sure not to forget the other three, then my world will change", spoke Peter. "Is that all? And then you're free?" asked the genie. Peter remembered, "No. Not just yet. I must narrow my range!" The genie raised his eyebrow. Peter continued, "Instead of visualizing it in time space I must relate here with there. I can think of any random thing, from a rolling meadow to a stray hair. ..and make it weird!" "You are correct. Well done!" said the genie, twisting his beard. "It is when we see where we wish to go here and now that we see the portal to it. And by making up a logic for that thing we pull ourselves there as our mind relates the there-logic to the here-logic. Indeed, the logic is our path." "Of course!" exclaimed Peter. "The logic is our path. "I need not know how. I need not do the maths. "I need only think of something-anything-and my mind will start to make sense of it, at the same time taking me to where I wish to go!" And in a satisfied puff of smoke, the genie disappeared. Peter was soon to follow. [/quote] These past few posts are wonderful Chaol. Thank you. This last one is so touching! :hf: The main stumbling block I"m having is seeing myself as the satisfied puff of smoke who can experience and juggle perspective. I was a little surprised when we talked about the supernatural that you didn't say it is perspective from a special geometry of relationships. But other than this and maybe a couple of other things, I can see I am the author of reality. I am wondering if you have models in your world for: health, dying, procreation, education, careers, space travel, psychic powers and mental health? (I know these may not be the terms used, but I think you get the idea.) [/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.
