From Everyday Enlightenment
Revision as of 00:37, 2 May 2023 by imported>Jacob Robertson
The concept
- How does it fit in with the goals of enlightenment?
- How do Systems exercises help with this goal?
- Understanding the relationship between our center of consciousness and the universe as a whole
- TODO - more
- How to approach each of these exercises
- Play with your own perception, seeing systems in different ways, especially moving between each level of systems
- individual parts - Notice they are discrete and autonomous in their own way
- two or more individual parts - How do they relate and compare and contrast; how do they work together; what connects them and separates them
- similarities and differences between the following, noting how a system is composed and connected to other systems
- specialized systems (cars driving in one direction together)
- parallel systems (two lanes of cars)
- opposing systems (two directions of traffic)
- "ecology" - many systems that are loosely related (light poles, sidewalks and streets)
Driving
- Cars moving with you - all one system, but all individual cars
- Cars moving against you vs with you - two separate systems with opposing objectives, but at the same time, part of the same system of traffic flowing
- Notice other Systems and combinations of Systems, such as
- Sidewalks and the grass next to them
- Streetlights - alongside the sidewalks, in the grass, lighting the street
- Telephone poles - similar to the streetlights, but not the same at all
