Notes from an "alternate universe". Introduction to a new way of thinking.

Hi. Thanks for your comments. They're quite helpful.

The idea was to use elements of this world that people on the web were already familiar with. So not only using easy-to-understand words and phrases* but also graphical concepts that can be related to.

As has been noted on the website, the depictions have nothing to do with Ecsys.

But since our dream+world has a somewhat-blue hue I thought that such images would serve multiple purposes. However, it may be a good idea to not use them for the website until such time that the purpose of them is more obvious.

It's actually not a copy of Avatar but pretty close. Though each depiction is specific to Ecsys, I can see how it could distract from the central message of Ecsys without it being obvious why they appear to look the way they do.

*Although. Sometimes. I. Confuse. EvenMyself.

Hi.

There's a couple of ways to look at this:

1) [As external events] The conditions that will exist in the next 5 seconds are highly relative to the conditions of the present. And, the paths of the broken pieces are their "paths of least resistance" considering all factors.

2) [As internal events, or perception] The conditions that will exist in the next 5 seconds are highly relative to the conditions of the present. And, the paths of the broken pieces are their "paths of least resistance" considering all factors.

For #1 you need a pretty big computer to calculate the paths and future possibilities. You don't see that the source of the motion is you so you need to make complex that which isn't really there (motion).

For #2 you need only yourself. The glass does not shatter in 3 dimensions, only 1. The way something will move in future is inherent in how it is moving now. (It is the same thing.) In order to predict the future we measure only the present perspective rather than future probabilities.

Randomness does not actually exist. Every event and thing has cause/effect, except one did not come before the other. In one sense the shattering glass is caused by it slipping from a hand. In another sense the hand 'remembers' the glass slipping because of the way the glass is positioned on the floor. In another sense the shattering glass is 'caused' by a slip of the tongue.

Prediction looks for cause-effect probabilities when it does not exist.

What we should predict, instead, is perception.

When we look at the price of a stock we can ask either "where is it going?" or "what is it?"

I realize this doesn't help much. But I hope you get the idea. I cannot provide a mathematical model of stock prediction. I can only teach you how to control the movement of stocks through your perspective. The former is more exciting, of course.

This past Wednesday, I was in a terrible mood. Nothing was going right for me. I finally gave up, went into my room and locked the door, just so I would not bite off anybody's head. I fumed for the rest of the day about three things that I wanted.

The next day, Thursday, I started off kind of cranky, but then each of the three things over which my panties were so twisted the day before, fell out of the sky and into my lap.

I was so stunned that all I could do was stand there and stare in astonishment.

Here it is, two days later, and I am still dazed with wonder at how those things were delivered so effortlessly. In fact, I got more than what I actually wanted.

No genius. No neuronicons. Not even an expectation (well, other than the brute force which I intended to exert, but ended up not having to use). I did not even SAY anything to anybody about my wishes. They simply appeared.

I don't want to have to get angry enough to burn down cities in order to get a few little things, so I am still a bit mystified as to what I did right.

This is something that annoys the heck out of me. It always works for me. When I get so *angry* about everything going wrong, that's when I get exactly what I want. It has to be genuine though. I feel like it's something to do with that raw feeling - because it really isn't so different from that "bliss" feeling, if you know what I mean? It's like I'm not blocking it any more and the "energy" underneath doesn't have a label, it's the same as the "bliss" feeling, it's just easier not to contain it.

Anger seems easier to use, and I don't know why that is as I think of myself as a "love and light" kind of girl...

Very cool! And I've got some work to do!!!!!

Thank you very much, Chaol and XWon!

where's Chaol? ;-;

(in other news: I saw an ad for the dream car of mine by the same orginal seller.
Apparently he still has it and has not sold it yet...)

...the obvious question knocks on the door.

Where is your dream self right now?

That is a witty way to handle questions, Tuuuuur. Thanks for the advice.

I get asked rhetorical questions that don't make any sense, and so I can't respond. It is like I will say, "The sky is very blue today", and someone will ask me, "So, you don't think that aliens wear hats?"

How would you handle questions that don't make any sense?

Ah, but that is a negative question, which always is nice, because if you answer 'yes', the person that asked the question can't know for sure if it is 'yes, I do believe aliens wear hats', or 'yes, I don't believe aliens wear hats'.
So I answer those with a very ambigue 'yes'!

Mostly I answer rhetorical questions with equally illogical phrases that don't answer anything, but sound as if they do.

There is a stupid absurd childish joke in Holland that goes like this:
Q: why does a rabbit?
A: because he behind a tree.

That answer is what I use a lot... In my previous workplace my colleagues got so used to it they started saying it themselves.

where's Chaol? ;-;

Not so much as change as reflect. There is no cause-effect in the usual sense.

The relationship of the hot chocolate being next to the monitor (among other things) is reflected in other parts of the perception, such as the movement of stocks.



How are some people able to 'predict' the future when the future does not actually exist?

They perceive 'future' values in the present.

The map is difficult to see when you think of things are cause-effect. It is hard to think of what causes something else to happen because there is no cause.

There is a single perception and more of a flat perspective. When you think of it as a single perception rather than cause-effect then the map becomes much easier.

The question then becomes, "What am I perceiving" instead of "How did this happen" or "What will happen?"

There only seems to be two of something. This illusion is enough to form the relationship.

In that sense, you could say that perception is information about the relationships.

Between two things it transmits through nothing because you're really only perceiving one thing.

I guess you could imagine a geometrical shape with an infinite number of sides. Two sides form a specific relationship (and perspective), but nothing transmits the data because it is already there. In effect, there is no data.

Using drugs or alcohol (or anything else) influences your perspective.

It's all "false fiction" regardless of what you take, if anything. You're never not taking something.

The question is more, "how relative is the perspective of the alcohol to my current perspective?"

The perspective of clean water is quite relative to your perspective. When you drink it you are influenced by it, but it's so close to your own perspective that you don't realize anything is happening.

The perspective of an alcohol is not relative to your perspective (unless its perspective has consumed you). When you drink it you are influenced by it, and you realize the difference because it is so different.



How real are those things?



Perception is not the same as opinion or belief.

If you believe that you will be focused while driving after drinking that wouldn't be your perception. That's more of your thinking for the moment.

Hi.

Not really.

A symbol is a representation, not just something that can be drawn. The most effective symbols are those which you make. A drawing could be effective, but it would then be a bit difficult to allow this symbol to interact* with your physical environment.

Look around you. You are surrounded by symbols. In fact, the only things you can perceive are symbols (representations).

*An example would be to take a banana, cut the top, and wrap speaker wire around it. You could allow it to interact with your physical environment by carrying it around in your bag and placing it down whenever you sit. The Genius sounds crazy, indeed, but when done properly it works.

I don't know anything about John Titor but not much of it makes any sense. Maybe it's how some people feel when they read what I write ;)

There is actually but one perspective, but for the sake of illustration I may say that your perspective is different from your friend's, for example.

A "world line" seems more like another string of possibilities or probable worlds.

Perspective is more like a family of perceptions in the "here and now".

"Advanced distortion units" sounds like non-sense but I guess I would need to know what he's talking about.

Most 'UFO's that I've ever heard of are from Earth, not an other dimension outside of Earth. Many aren't even traveling but just going about their business.
