Re: The THREE Methods - Categorized
I should point out the obvious: You are not locked-in with your choice. You are always free to change your choice. In fact, adopting the "neutral" and "passive" methods are often strategically useful as you approach whatever it is you wish to understand (in this case "secrets of the pyramids"). Furthermore, one will often find that they do not have sufficient amounts of TEEM (Time, Energy, Effort, Money) to expend as an active-method seeker 100% of the Time. For example: When one runs out of money, an active seeker cannot help but become a neutral seeker with respect to that particular measure of INTENTION (Money).
Yes....measures of INTENTION...an important concept we should talk about. Does everyone understand how the elements that comprise TEEM represents measures of our INTENTION? For example, if someone selects the ACTIVE method and dedicates ALL of their Time, Energy, Effort, and Money towards achieving their goal, this would be the extreme application of that person's INTENTION to achieve what they seek (in this case "secrets of the pyramids"). So any reasonable person can MEASURE just how much INTENTION they are applying to their quest, at any given point in Time. Yes? Are we in agreement on this?
As I mentioned earlier, a person who chooses a Neutral method will generally try to "balance out" how much they expend for any one measure of TEEM. The definition of a person who is "totally Neutral" would be one who expends (but also does not receive) any measures of TEEM as they follow the pathway through Time to achieve what they seek (in this case "secrets of the pyramids"). But that is an idealistic condition. Usually, one will adjust their expenditures ("outputs) of TEEM to be in line with their receipt ("inputs") of TEEM. The person who is realistically Neutral is always playing a balancing game among Inputs and Outputs of TEEM. For example: If all of a sudden I get a significant influx of "M" ($) then I can "afford" to expend part of my budget with respect to Time, Energy, and Effort.
The person who chooses the Passive method, by definition, will never, EVER choose to expend any of their TEEM towards achieving the goal they seek (in this case "secrets of the pyramids"). On internet forums these people are called "trolls", because they only RECEIVE TEEM from others, but they have no INTENTION of using or applying that TEEM to something they are pretending to be seeking. Rather, they are collecting TEEM from others and using it for other purposes (other INTENTIONS).
Now, since some folks in this thread appear to be a little impatient (timeline79) perhaps I should continue with my sharing of the "secrets of the pyramids". But as I do, let me make it clear that if the only thing you plan to "do" to reach an understanding of these secrets is to read this thread, then you are following more of the NEUTRAL if not PASSIVE Method. Because if you think about it, since I am the one willing to share this knowledge with all of you, I am expending a significant amount of my TEEM in doing so. Someone who is lurking along with this thread is (by our measures as active participants in this thread) expending very low amounts of TEEM. As such, if they never ask questions or even post at all, then their ability to progress in learning is limited, unlike others who have chosen a more ACTIVE Method.
OK...so the FIRST "hint" about the "secrets of the pyramids" is that there are three distinct "domains" within which we design any sort of system that will possess INTENTION. These THREE domains (the same ones listed in my signature line below) can and are represented in the physical form of the pyramid. In fact, one might say these domains define the set of THREE mutually orthogonal "axes" for the system we wish to design.
OK? Understand so far? Questions/Comments?

That makes two active method seekers.Active. "all actions no theories" instead of "all theories no actions"
