Quoting: Chaol Take what you know about how to make a Genius model and apply it to the world that is all ready around you. This is a tricky one but it is the step that leads up to more advanced uses of Ecsys. I'll start with a hint: Everything of your perception is a symbol If the Genius is a map from one perception to another, here are some examples of changing environments: Preschool: a few hours a day, begin to interact with others and experience a form of independence (Genius 1) Kindergarten-Elementary school: all-day classes, making of friends and developing own identity, exploration of mental knowledge (Genius 2) High School: Many classes, positive and negative interactions with others, emphasis on future direction and goals, testing of personal limitations and boundaries (Genius 3) College: Sudden decrease in class length and time spent in classroom environment, emphasis on independence and self-reliance, interaction with others from diverse backgrounds, work towards 'mastery' of particular subject (Genius 4) Post-College: could have similar geometry to any previous Genius, depends on lifestyle choice. These illustrate the progress of knowledge and autonomy during first 20-ish years of 'life'. Last Edited by CatCarel on 12/20/2012 08:11 PM Cat www.ecsys.weebly.com |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 6853315 In other words, you don't know why Chaol arrives early every September and then leaves every mid-November. If I knew, I would not have asked. You offered to answer questions. Using my logic and seeing the possibilities, you are not very good at this. Interaction is over with. I don't care to play your game. Ok I'm back with my kiddy gloves on to discuss Chaol's comings and goings. I think I assumed you were all paying more attention. Chaol comes and goes on prominent Nexi. By now we all know that nexi represent spaces for possibility. What creates these spaces? Based on what we have learned so far, the relationship (geometry) between two or more representations creates the space for possibility, the same way binaural tones work. So what are the major representations that are always associated with Chaol's comings and goings? Seems they always sun-related, with expressions on planet earth, physically, socially, etc. Feel free to add any other relationships (patterns) that you feel are pertinent. Think sun-moon magnetic relationships. These two representations are of major relevance to this perspective. Nexus = Solar Flare + Chaol leaving/returning The Nexi exist because of his interaction with solar activity Sol represents this particular brand of physicality. Everything physical (as we know it) has its 'origin' there. Every 'level' of physicality has a sun, you could say. From the particles on up to the universe. The potential energy of the sun is made relative through interaction (solar activity). However, this activity is as much in your body as in what appears to be the center of your solar system. In one way it's the same thing. In an other, perhaps more practical, way it's a connection. (In this way you can reach other possibilities of physically-oriented experience.) It's one reason you could stand next to it and not burn (although your clothes and equipment may, as they have a less-relative 'sun' at their center). The universe is, indeed, your body in all respects. |

I particularly would like to learn more about mental symbols, ecsys on the fly, predicting the future and visualization techniques. I don't really know how to start a thread though. Quoting: Not-Chaol 5877556 Personally, I'm not leaving the space Chaol created. I like being in his Genius map. If anyone starts another thread on this material, then that is creating another space. Also, I think Chaol does enough for us so I wouldn't dare ask him to go teach in my thread. Just sayin' I don't understand why you don't just post what you are interested in here such as mental symbols, ecsys on the fly, etc:? Edit: And quite frankly, if one doesn't understand the basics I just mentioned above, then I don't think it's time to move to advanced information. And Chaol has actually mentioned it's not time to move on until we understand some things. Also, he has mentioned 2013 a few times and that he will tell us more. He is waiting to reveal something to us. I have no idea what it is, but I'm content to play with my Genius plans and see what I can learn. After all, we are really trying to learn HOW we create our reality. And, as far as I know, only 3 people have actually accomplished anything with their Genius plans. That would be tuuuuuuur, Cat and the poster that just moved to Canada. Marshwiggle and I both are unsure of our results and I know I'm waiting on Chaol to return for feedback to see if I had results or a personal experience. I think many of us have a good understanding of the basics to move up a notch. A small notch ;) (Far many more persons have accomplished something with their Genius. Some speak up, though.) |

In the beginning (yes the very beginning) there was nothing. This nothing is not nothing, it's something. It is impossible to define as it lies outside of anything we can or will ever perceive (it is perception). This "ability to perceive" required additional things be generated at the same time. It "presupposed" a random soup of pure "true" randomness. Within that "perspective", patterns emerged and not necessarily in a physical sense. Could have been the most simple of concepts at first, but in "true" randomness (without time) you can have complex patterns emerge (including time and the observer). Some could just have initial conditions where minute changes over time are allowed. Include continued existence for a concept that can grow in meaning and adjust itself based on what it is currently experiencing. You see, I don't know that nothing exists, because nothing is as random as possible. Nothing is ever provable. You can only collect evidence of experience and work to predict and understand the probability for it to happen. This evidence allows you to judge how the future can behave. As I see it, this is how you(we) got here. Or if nothing else, it is how we formed within the framework of these "physical bodies" and their perceived environment. All of your past could have been generated (in whole) at this moment with you as complex as you are. Edit- Not only did we come into being capable of experience like this, I believe it is this possibility space that we abuse by using the Genius. We provide perspective a possibility for something previously not logical. Once we allow it to interact it is queued into experience.

It could be completely random but we would still make sense of it. That is, indeed, what is done. We perceive nothing. There is no inherent order or logic in "nothing". We make sense of it, according to our perspective. If you relate anything to anything else it is a relationship and, thus, can be logical. Infinity does not actually exist, for "nothing" is not actually infinite. However, when we perceive of nothing it appears infinite because it is impossible to perceive of anything directly. |
| Chaol User ID: 8043452 12/21/2012 06:22 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Update for 11/27 Quoting: dodec 20177375 3 quantum experiments to keep in mind while viewing this thread: 1. double slit [link to www.youtube.com] The act of perceiving something causes the the wave of possibilities to collapse manifesting an experience. 2. [link to www.youtube.com] everything is connected 3. superposition something unobserved exists in all its possible states For #1, would that not imply that each observer has their own wave of possibilities? For #3, if it is unobserved then it would not relate to anything and would not thus have a state. Yup and yup. But for #3 one could say "no energy is independent of perspective(observation)". Until something is observed it seems to sit out there (as a possibility) un-rendered waiting to become logical (enough to be rendered). Which gets us back to the question of existence and non-existence. It doesn't exist until it is perceived. We use symbols so we can perceive it. Where do the symbols and/or the knowledge to use them come from? In our world, we use them without even knowing how. So, they exist. Even when it is perceive it does not exist, but only seem to exist because we have related (what appears to be) something with (what appears to be) something else. We cannot perceive of something because there is only Nothing. When we relate one illusion with an other, existence seems to be. When, actually, it was never there at all. The symbols don't come from anywhere. They don't need to. When you relate one thing with an other thing (both illusions) you have a symbol (that is also an illusion). If there was ever a "source" it is Nothing. But we don't pull something out of nothing as it would be a waste of energy (and also impossible). There need only be the illusion of us doing so. We have a taste of this at every moment in physicality. Things appear solid and are 'good enough' for their purpose. They need not be solid throughout or even real. We need only relate. And relating two illusions together completely satisfies the need to relate. |

Till the next lotto drawing Quoting: DODEC 20177375 We Ride.... Sure. Not if you think of it in the traditional sense. Why not see your numbers match right now, in a different way? Trying to think untraditionally... but not coming up with anything useful. Can you elaborate Chaol? Thanks |

My Kindle is still cooperating so far. Quoting: 6853315 1298031 They all ready do. There is far more life in our electronics that we realize. It would be as though there we were surrounded by a whole world of intelligent beings but we only used and analyzed their poopings. We look at their form of communication and consider it something that we have invented or discovered. Two elephants are in the forest and, for the first time, they head humans talking. One elephant turns to the other and says, "I have discovered a new type of sound!" and proceeds to dance to get other humans to visit, thus making more sounds. What we 'invent' is a discovery of something that was all ready there. |
