Misc Notes

XP and Success

Basic System

Do Something That Can Get You Something

Action is often the only way to get information - both information about new possibiliities and calibrating existing hunches.

Test Immediately

ONCE you've taken action, it is worthwhile testing as much as possible.

Listen To What is Necesarry

Ruthlessly refactor. Re-do what you've done. If what you are doing isn't working, do anything else.

Once you have action and information, you often must change course again. Don't get caught up

REPEAT.

Corollaries

Theories that delay you starting aren't based on improvement but are parasitical for their own purposes.

Bases

Words

Perhaps deletions aren't deletion but the creations of different associative trees within the brain.

Hmm, basically, somewhere, the dynamics of language involves one expression that is n-dimensional feedback loops. That is the rhythm/tone/control system framework, and the other has the abstract language/formal logic character to itself.

One part processes information along the lines of a finite automaton. And in this way is really quick.

The other part has a stack or stacks combined with finite autamatons and by trying to regulate them is much slower - and serial rather than parallel.

One approach would be to see that every word has a tonal/kinesthetic dynamic.

There are an infinite number of presuppositions, especially those around relative judgements.

Calibration/Adjusting to the rhythm of things

The tendency of the brain

Attention directors

Moving your position with the target's mind

Integrity In Communication

How is this for an understanding of multi-language.

1) It isn't possible to truly lie. Any utterance a person makes creates a part where the statement is true on one level.

2) All utterances have multiple meaning, some more than others.

3) People live within language. Since language is a person's "self-communication" the ambiguities within language are means of creating a person's boundaries.

Resource Realizing

A model of new behavior creation coming from an itterative build-up of existing resources.

My Presuppositions

- New behaviors can in the mind as well in outside activity.

- To gain a skill, you must rehearse it.

- Real, verifiable resources have linguistic articulatable and sensorily verifiable qualities. "Free your neck" or "Feel in control" can be articulated linguistically and verified concretely (or not).

- Attaining a given resource can allow a person to attain a level of sensory accuity that previously they did not have. (Thus allowing them to verify a further resource).

- Goals are important for verifying a result. But to describe attaining a resource, you must put yourself into the state immediately. Factually, success feels not different than failure. Denominalize success into attainment of resource. Use goals to verify that you've succeeded in the particular task of attaining the resource.

- People often have all the resources they need for desired behaviors, behaviors like being more confident or creative. Other times, they have the resources to learn desired skill more quickly than otherwise.

- The longer a task lasts, the more it will dependent of larger frames of action. A task will depend on

My Resource Generator Steps

1. Articulate the desired resources

State You Goal In Positive and negative Forms

Reduce The Goal to a series of resources which would allow you to attain the goal

Verify that these are internal resources.

Sort out the resources which are skills not yet learned

Substitute the resources that would allow to learn these skills easily.

Find past instances and situations where you have had these resources.

Create metaphors, images and analogies that capture each resource in sequence as a single state.

Ex: The resource of "floating effortlessly through the world" would a be resource that allows you to "remain cool under fire" while not focusing on the "fire" in your statement.

Create a chain of resources which would allow you to attain what you wish, starting from nothing.

Some resources you'd always have, some you'd have at the beginning, some at the middle, some at the end.

You might want a "meta resource" which balanced several others.

Honestly imagine changing/modifying your approach

Determine what modalities the required resources have.

Remember a time when you decided to accept a new modality - think of comfort and

Make the decision to accept using a new modality even it feel awkward - allow the quiteness and peace necesarry for this decision.

Use eye movements to imang

Consider objections or ways your present approach satisfies other needs/goals/purposes and deal with that.

2. Create the means for learning the new skills

Create a script/carrier system for experiancing these resources

In the order in which you will need them, ask

Ask yourself "what it be like to have X", then "what it be like to have X",

Add all the sensory language, the as if frame language, metaphors and other times.

Other sensory associations

Swish

Dissociated picture of self with new resource.

Associated picture of target experiance.

Foreground-background:

Anchor the new resources to a experiance in the background of the target situation.

Repeat the script dailly, realizing that you are teaching yourself the skills of going into this state easily and naturally.

States such as confidence can be easily generated externally by things like seminars. But it's important to have the meta-belief that attaining these states without stimulous is a distinct skill.

Any resistance, ask "what would it be like to imagine myself having these resources, honestly" Keep in mind this is a pure imagination excercise. Do not attempt to "push" resources into yourself or anything.

See whither you sponteneously Visualize Yourself Achieving It. Does It Feel Like I Can Really Do It?

If not, go back and articulate more resources. Remember that the extra resources may only be accesible once you obtain the initial resources.

3. Go into the real world, see whether you have resources, see whether having the resources allows you to attain the goal.

Modify the script for things that work well, only de-emphasizing things that work less after some thought.

Only expect to have the resources if you have specfically used the script and asked for the script.

You learn the skill of quickly attaining the resource, you can't just permanently impart an ability into yourself, even if the resource itself already exists within you.

If you don't have the resources, verify that they are internal, articulated, existant resources for you, keep asking which resources would be 1st, 2nd, continuing, last, in the process.

Indirect change models

1) The problem/limit is some articulated goal which cannot be met: Go from A to B. The problem is that an excitement/inhabition circuit functions does not function subtling enough. (Whether this is a question of acheivement or social adaption is merely determined

2) The solution is to meet the goal indirectly. Go from A to C to B.

3) The question is huge varieties of indirect methods, many of use several of the following element.

Distraction of the conscious/alticulating/inhibiting mind.

Trance/altered state of conscious

Language patterns - multiple meaning

Direct distraction

Counter-example/varification

Chunk down to the level of single datum.

Finding single counter-examples against is

/Varification: Break down into chunks/varify evidence.

X CI Y is just a relation between X and Y. So you can challenge X, add another relation that disrupts the existing relation.

2) Homosexuality is unpleasant

3) Neccesity frame

The power and magic of the stage

To be effective, you must cross a border

How a person's unconscious doesn't take something seriously unless they put effort into.

A item put on stage focuses attention on it.

Something unfamiliar can be presented as familiar, something familiar can be presented as unfamiliar.

Movement on and off the stage implies a commitment, a changing of the frame.

Viewing Interaction As Flow Of Energy

Humans are energic beings. They have a continues flow around them.

Humans in proximity posses a direct flow of energy. This flow is polarized, has definite lines, when human interact.

Belief

BELIEVE the patterns work on most chicks, and act accordingly as long as the responses seem to be anywhere from fair to great. In fact, I'm now starting to think that some of the most thoughtful and imaginative HB's (i.e. those on whom the patterns have the most effect) might be the ones MOST likely to look away while the patterns flow into their minds and take over the direction of their thoughts.

Speed

The point of doing NLP well is to do it quickly, strongly (speaking loudly-firmly, standing close, assuming control of the situation), and with exact observation of the other person.

With those three elements, there nothing new what-so-ever for me to learn. All the methods or at least enough, are in the bandler classics.

Developing NLP skill

Tools

While NLP might be seen as having objective truth, there a severe limitations on this.

Rather than developing an infinite machinery for the explanation of human behavior, mastering NLP is the development of a compact, easily assecible tool-kit of behavior.

Anyone and any framework can eventually generate the parts needed to explain and transform another person's behavior. But no person has infinite amount of time or can go infinitely faster than another. The trick is instead to have a "tool belt," a series of points concrete enough to use instantly, flexible enough to use in many situations.

Notice, for example, I have a series of themes and patterns which I previously developed, used for a period of time and then discarded.

Tool Kit

Consider John Levalle. His shtick is taken from Richard Bandler and hasn't changed for several years. But it's so sufficiently multi-layered and transformative that it works when repeated over-and-over again.

My toolkit is a series of cycling reframes. Reframes, stories and patterns that feed into each other but are rich enough in double meanings,

General Flexibility

NLP is learning to break out of boxes.

Some boxes are organized in a nested way, like flies in glass jars in a laboratory. Some boxes are orthogonal to each other (no easy physical anology).

Breaking out of every jar is the work of a lifetime.

Teachers

Some teacher may be out of some jars but not others.

Language Beyond Self

Basic Method/trick: As If frames (I)

Language and conscious are not the same, the self has the sensation that everything that it processes remains within it's circle of intentionality. But as soon as you use language, you are evoking various circuits, some of which create a wider array of choices and other of which catch you within their circulation.

The "as if" frame is the simplest level of language, in the sense that simple language is an 1-order logic relation.

Our goal is to move the mind beyond it's present processes. A pure "intellectual" experiance is useless.

Considering different logical relations creates different circuits. This is especially powerful in terms of the circuits of "self" which are continually opperating.

The ability of mind to consider different frame is thus still quite useful to us.

Insertion (II)

These are all methods that create an openning in the mind that allows a frame to be inserted. Thus they are not a complete "change" but are tools to open unknown process

Problem and solution types

The condition of balance, centeredness, power, letting go and so-forth is a general word for a class of solutions to internal mis-alignment.

There is no magic method to learn new skills. A person must gain the information needed to accomplish the skill and then test, and etc., the skill. Moreover, the brain is very good at doing this and often can accomplish learning new skill quickly.

Beyond this fundamental difficulty - beyond this fundamental metric, there are things that can make things easier.

A person can become caught in a mis-calibration of a problem in a low level and not be able to use the conscious mind's normal ability to "step back" or evoke a recalibration.

The brain learns skill that might have little to do with conscious goals. Removing these implicitly learned skills is dicey considering they serve other purposes.

A particular skill may involve a particular "circuit" of reflexive processes tied together - a "strategy." Some strategies may be more useful for some things than others and so a person want to learn a particular strategy as well as a particular activity within

The recipe

Geodel's theory on cutting down proofs

A recipe is simple if it is the adition similar ingredients. It can be magical if it is a combination of ingredients of different categories that works.

Scam and scarcity

A con-man can only exist in the framework of scarcity. In a world where new things are always appearing and where giving always creates more, there is only magic.

Intentions

Never trust those whose only intention is to help you. By that token, you can approach someone wishing to getting things from them and simultaneously with the intention to create a powerful experiance for them.

Those who intend to help you might not be the best aid. By thinking of you as helpless and themselves as getting nothing, they put you in the most undersireable condition. The trickster who wants something from you might be a better aid depending on the situation.

The trickster becomes an aid equally to the idealist becoming a trickster.

The Garden

Compare being balanced in the now to gardening in your own garden. You are thinking about the future but your activity now has value in itself. There isn't a single goal.

Fugue states as fusions of senses but also fusions between levels.

Like poetry or magic, very particular combinations, done with a particular recipe, can produce unique results, jump to unique levels and so-forth. These can be evoked again once discovered but they are more than just

Sight to feeling is both a change in the feeling but also a strategy

Infinity as a concept only needs a meta-comment and a sucessor relation.

Language is both feedback and logical specification - An expression as feedback is datapoint and an expression as logical specification is absolute. Yet the datapoint is data about the absolute and the specification is generally about something trivial. The fugue of these aspect is one more power point.

Patterns are simply stepping stones between states. They allow the mind to participate fully in the sympathetic response.

The qualities of the shaman

The fraility of the self in the primative context, going hand in hand the degree of connection people have in that world.

How piercing the bounds of the self is one ways that the shaman can regain the self.

Utilization: The shaman constantly uses every aspect of his environment. He can alternate between the most ridiculous trickery and most the proundly amazing mental powers.

Unitary society. The society is of a similar content. What would be banaly physical mingles with ethereally abstract.

Flow - the web, texture.

Any equisite experiance requires a balance of different qualities. And that balance will be partially unique to that activity and partially

A powerful interaction involves a balance of giving up the self and keeping the self.

The power of texture is balance, consistency and self-similarity. Each inter-mingle with the other.

Subjective experiance creates time,

Bottom up or Top Down

If the mind is simply the trace of all possible reason, if is simply those relations which order according a certain meta-balance(or balance within balance), then becoming aware of dreams is simply a piece of that balance.

The mind that is balanced within a mind-body dynamic must die because this is it's only point of balance.

If the mind is a effect of the body,

The condition of the body naturally is what leads up to the constructs of the mind. The natural world does not create items of frictionless binary logic but analogue devices that both logic and direction.

Natural logic is utilization - we are provided with a luxurious set of automatic control system - are muscular reflexes. And "higher" reflexes are not seperated but merely combinations of similar effects.

Centering and balance, surrender

Stretch yourself at every turn

Time is a frame like any geometrical frame.

It requires balance, harmony and texture.

The point is do you situate your experiance of time. Since any

World as point and subjectivity as circle around that point.

Slices of time can be aranged by subjectivity according to it's exigencies - to maintain a world where there is a fusion of

Balance - Moving effortlessly

To achieve an effect, you interact indirectly with the unconscious. This always a giving into the unconscious while you give it direction.

Balance and effortlessness are one. To reach a goal, you can all those things that distract as being efforts. By balencing forces, you need no force to continue in a direction, whatever. And to balance you must be willing to back up, play, let go, vibrate and alter the vibrations.

How you can move from X to Y to Z. Yet you cannot imagine Z from X. Yet this is only the simplist of the permutations.

To take a step is to loose your balance for a second. But a dynamic balance allow you TO lose your balance, to flow within the lost balance back to the center and continue this process.

The held balance requires you to expend effort but also keeps you from letting go.

The dynamic balance allow you to change direction at any point that this is appropriate.

Energy and action

Clutter as a choice not to experiance energy.

Mental clutter, things left uncertain, as much of a matter of clutter as physical things.

The modern and the primal

Human beings as unstable creatures. The Knees are only partially evolved to The human posture is more energetic than any other animal and we have not yet learned to use that energy coherently.

Modern humans give up energy to the whole constructs of modern life. Living in furniture disrupts your entire mechanism of existence, etc..

Historical Methods Of Human self-change

The most natural operation of a human is for the conscious mind to be capable of modifying behavior to a certain degree and beyond that to be incapable - this is simplying saying that we often model our conscious capabilities as a circle, a region and so increasing our conscious capabilities is

Budism

Asian systems like budism, tantra, and taoism instruct humans on ways to go back to states of primal balance - a balance equivalent to animals but much more complete and complex since it encompasses the processes of rational awareness.

Such mechanisms of individual modification are themselves the product of a half-complete system. Asian empires were based on a surplus but this extra-unbalance energy could still be absorbed due to the general stasis of the production process.

Contrast this with primal people's beliefs, which made no effort to gain enlightment but rather attempted to live with spirits in the most convenient manner.

Unlike christianity, tantra actually offers methods for progressively modifying your condition. Christianity has a single stage of change - conversion. You move between unsaved and saved and this is a far as you go. Eastern systems offer progressive training but still present the epistemological problem of existence as the situation to be solved.

Having plenty of time, trantra was able to discover all of the easily available technologies of indirect self-modification.

"Don't just experiance it intellectually"

This phrase is similar to all the phrases used for indirect modification of behavior.

All person uses thought processes and impulses to achieve various goals and satisfy various needes (thoughts and impulse are not really different, goals and needs are not really different - each word puts emphesis on more reflexive or more logical activity but such seperation is only relative).

Often, there is an unbalence between the processes done to achieve a given effect and the processes that need to continue and achieve further things. A person becomes stuck at one stage for doing one thing.

One example of a stuckness is fear of self-death - which is necesarry in stages of life but which cannot be a guide for living.

The problems or "stucknesses" that we encounter are naturally those of modern, isolated persons. Primal people being more self-referential encounter.

"Don't just experiance it intellectually" exhorts the listener to involve other facilities besides logical manipulation in their processes. It recognizes the nearly unlimited ability of people's logical-manipulative skill to be create hypothetical processes but also that these hypotheticals do not change other processes within a person by themselves or do not create them strongly.

The ability of the logical/manipulative facility to create any kind of hypothetical is key for simply understanding general language - since language can evoke any imaginable situation. And so the seperation of hypotheticals is necesarry for protection from language. This is protection from other people's language and protection from your own language. Otherwise, each permutation would actually change the process that a person goes through.

Meditation - Balances and Unbalance of appetite

Needs

Civilization is the first situation where human needs could be discovered. This is because it is the situation humans could be systematically deprived of different things.

New order

The point is to create a situation where needs are satisfied within the framework of abundance of spirit.

The methods of meditation, of achieving general balance, are also the methods of achieving specific changes.

All of these are methods of giving logical-deductive processes more direct influence or over reflex process.

But this sensation of control is itself an illusion, since the logical/deductive processes themselve require meaning, more direction to make up for gaining control over a wider area. And this meaning is generated from somewhere - outside, cultural biases, historical factors. In any case, there is no "real" inherent meaning to such phenomenon.

The modern human's seperation into a single, fixed self

This is not just seperation but a mode of balance. The modern human is a candidate for all religious process. He is capable of embrancing of the processes.

Humans as animals

Feelings As The Deciding Factor -

People try to deny their feelings. Yet they also wind-up putting too much meaning into their feelings. The way that a voice inside someone's mind can hypnotize them without them realizing it.

Language

A geometry of thought processes.

Key point - Backup

We articulate a geometry of thought processes. "Holding on to ideas" "Letting go of tension" etc. Suppose that we could be right at the point of creating that geometry. Before we actually experiance that geometry, imagine that activity of simply creating that. Suppose that we could actually JUST STAY THERE.

Brain damaged woman. Language can lead to places beyond the circle where a person images themselves.

Reframe Emotions -Desperation is an important incredient of action

Parts, places in the mind, roles

People have a tendency to add a limitation to themselves

The more meaning you put on an internal conflict, the more you hold onto it.

Someone might think they have to have something. And they might think they can't have it. So it's held rigidly in place in their mind.

The Divided, Self Conscious/unconscious - Brain/Mind

The mind is able to model any kind of structure that you present to it.

Some structures it has more inherent facility with than others.

Structures in the brain can considered as circuits of facilities linked together.

A complex, a circuit, can be created by tying various simpler circuits together. This synthetic circuit can be simultaneous or parallel.

Processes like balance, kinesthetic rhythm, visual recognition, breath, linguistic logic and so-forth are relatively atomized "facilities."

Kinesthetic motion, especially of the hand, of a synthetic response. Under-lying orientation ("the unconscious") moves the hand a short distances whereas volition or mobilization response ("the conscious") guide the hand in over-all direction.

The mechanisms that might be most likely to tie the circuits together are "consciousness" (linguistic logic and self-mobilization) and association.

Church's thesis - a turning machine or similar items is sufficient for any kind of fixed computation. And a brain can aproximate a turning machine - very easily if you allow the tape to be external to it and with more difficulty of you rely on internal memory.

Some computational processes are opaque in their operations relative to human brain activity. The human being is not directly capable of activities like computing the sums of large numbers.

So the opperations of the brain can be ensulated in the operation of fixed number of facilities.

The unconscious exists inherently by the fact that many process go on simultaneously within a person's brain and just as much by the fact that these processes cannot all be aware of each other.

Enlightenment And Information Theory (More systematic expression)

Sequence, simultaneous and commitment

Many things occur in the brain simultaneously. Transmission time within the brain is not infinite and the process cannot be in total contact with each other.

Awareness, for the purposes of coherent thought, must conceptualize everything that happens in the brain as being simultaneous.

Memory is a record of sequential events. Naturally, on the finest level of detail, it is constructed out of many decisions that X happened after Y. The most arbitrary of this level is actions and intentions. An actual action comes out of many factors, many reflexes. It is merely recorded as being the result of an intention.

Commitment is the result of an action, either physical or verbal. Commitment tends to reflect back onto internal processes.

The logic of commitment tends to generate a whole series of illusions. Like democracy and other preference logics, there is no coherent best within logics of preferences. Nearly any result can be reached based on resonably close preference and

Attitude

Communication begins at the first moment. Communicating/approaching with incongruence cannot be compensated with later approaches. There is only a single moment. This moment is continues but only occasionally within that stream are there opportunities. And leaping to these opportunities as a moment of letting go. But just as much, it is a matter of letting go of further possibilities from both the past and future.

As an ideal flow of continues information, communication spreads from a single point of information. That is to say that the servos flowing out from a communication gain their extrapolating from the first moment. Naturally, you cannot regain the situation of the curve by later extrapolation.

A random variable has continuous proportion for it's frequency. This continuously varrying quality is alway there, in a sense even before it begins opperating.

Info-content of enlightenment

The ideally efficient servo is also the ideally safe servo.

Balance in feed-back is situation where it is possible for your in-put to steer between different output.

Four situations: X to Y, Y to X, X from Y, X from Y. Four rather than Two because Y doesn't get exactly what X.gives.

Anyway, these are streams of tokens. The streams are approximations of several continues variables between 0 and 1. Balance would be a situation where each variable is something like a bell curve, the stream of tokens would a random variable which could not be coded more tightly. Since X would be controlling Y, this would also be a situation Where Y and X attain maximum potential energy over time. I'd put this as ideal irreducibility. And remember that this situation is mainly a series of intuitions rather than any hard and fast model.

X and Y could be two people or two parts of one person.

We can look at the operation of a controller on an object whose behavior is determined by a differential equation plus an external input plus a small random variable. The controller constantly interacts with this object but only intermetantly has to use the object for other purposes, then the ideal situation is keeping the object in unstable equilibrium. A point of stability where a small motion can become a big motion

If dX/dt = F(X(t)) where X is vector, then d²X/dt² = F'(X(t)) X F(X(t)) using the chain rule. Anyway, If F(Y) = 0, then Y is point of stability. If p is a small distance from Y, the question is whether X(t) will tend to go towards p.

Unstable points are the point where X tends to move away. In anycase. The point is that being at a point of unstable equilibrium tends to give a maximum area of action if you must mobilize yourself. You, the controller, can exert a minimum of effort to get a maximum of gain.

Stable points require the maximum of effort for mobilization since you must fight against the tendency to stay at rest.

Points that are not stable require constant effort but are somewhat inbetween as far as how much range of action they give for mobilization.

Assume a controller interactions with several systems. Then it becomes more important for each system to be in balance because otherwise, energy for the entire system has to be used for a particular system.

Assume there are multiple levels of controllers. If any controller from above can seen as a system, it too should be in unstable equilibrium. It is possible that a controller has limited number of interactions with the controlled parts. Several Choices.

1) There is absolute limit to the energy of the controlled subsystems and this energy is less than the maximum uncontrolled of the systems.

2) You can reach the absolute limit of energy through a single, direct motion.

3) There is not absolute limit below the maximum energy but you cannot in general reach the maximum energy through a single direction.

In this latter case, maximum energy is reached only over time. The rhythm of interacting planets, each of which can be moved simultaneously but not seperately would be an example.Moving in such a way that the orbits have a chronological harmony sufficient to get to unstable equilibrium would be a strategy.

Assume there mutually interacting controller/controllee pairs.

Language As Information And Switch

The Model

Our model would approximate the world as a defined by a data with an increasing number of tables each of which has an increasing number of columns - as you define the world, you add more information this way.

What we define as a simple sentence defines some partial tupple of expression. To gain the further tupples of expression, we expand our context. We must consider that while the sentence requires some context, it also must take into account that it will be somewhat ripped out of context. Unlike mathematics, we cannot say "this defines tupple '1'". We must give tupples with the assumption that some will come before and some after - the present ones are the now. "This chair" is presented within the context of now. Now where we are on "the stack" of context as well as where we in time. The difference between a context free grammar and a context-sensative grammar is a context-free grammar cannot use a tape with definite places on it. It can only push and pop. And of course it is not that the human cannot create a tape but this this tape does not communicate well.

Higher Order

Now higher order expressions within language define relations between tupples: "for all X" and "there exists Y". Such expressions can contradict the push-down phenomenon of the "basic model."

"Basic" language is already an excercise in solving "there exists." An sentence suggests rather determining relations.

Mind Versus Brain

We can consider things at the level of a body that develops a universal mind - the propagation of information through information representing adaptability. We can consider things at the level of every possible configuration of representational activity and what allows a conscious mind - what allows the condition of a mid-way between infinity and finiteness, a coherent texture of certainty and uncertainty.

Brain

We can describe everything as perhaps. Atoms, symbols and relations all appear to use finitely. We can represent infinity but does that mean it exists? A regularity can give rise to automatic action and representation.

The submodalities for belief. All the different ways that a person believes something.

The ways that a belief that you are a kind of person Xs will cause you to change state to be able to X.

Filter, reactions and stimulus

A person constantly experiances stimulous and they generally aren't aware of stimulous directly, instead they are aware of their immediate reactions to that stimulous.

A filter decides which of the reactions are appropriate. It orders reactions. It can reject the results of a reaction OR tell the reaction to go back and change how it views things.

Thus filters can't be directly based on reactions - they have to order the reactions.

There quite likely are many levels of this but there's no use in formulating a more detailed description.

Beliefs are filters.

Identity is a filter over states and action of a person.

A larger classification of language

NLP Expanded - from physical body experiance/action

The fascinating thing is that there is broad classification of certain bodily activities within other bodily category. The V/A/K tripplet can contain other activities than simple input. People "feel sleepy" but sleep changes all inputs of the body. Thus various reflexes are contained within the "kinesthic" ruberic. And this is the "ordinary" classification of usage rather than any forced lexical usage.

Statistic - Causation Versus Corolation

Corolation can never by itself constitute a sufficient understanding to imply causation. An actual understanding of a phenomenon - either knowing the inner workings or having a connection at the origin of the phenomenon - is required.

Hegal's paradox

You cannot expect to get to truth except if you have a part of truth in you. And that truth must come to you from your position within all of history.

Do you see X from the point of view of Y or Y from the point of view of X. Statements are expressions of a hierachy. But you can really find the root of a tree anywhere on the tree.

The web of relating - X R Y but then again Y R X. And so we can move to an arbitrary point unless our sense of balance holds us within a single reference point. And this is an arbitrary rigidity.

Centering yourself in terms of seeing things in terms of the now.

If you order things according to a values hierarchy, you lose the ability to see things absolutely new at the moment.

Any naïve philosophy is a verbal chain of reasoning. And the end of chain is always open. Yet that says nothing - we have no reason for any link between points. We might have an impulse in that direction. But this is the closest we come.

Games and NLP

Asking How someone does something shows the structure of subjective experiance, asking why you do something makes someone cling to their action.

If only today, modern society, where we have individuals who can incorporate all history into their subjective experiance. Look at impressionist paintings. They're amazing for capturing a single moment

What's interesting about the structure of subjective experiance is how separate it is from play. How love today is so separate from the impulse to gift.

The experiance of new things - you don't know what you haven't yet experianced. People opperate and limit themselves with beliefs, yet beliefs can always be changed by experiances you haven't yet had.
