process of perception...(The World Doesn't Want to be Saved)

Yes, it always appears that you are in a minority of sane people (or perhaps you are the ONLY sane person) in a sea of completely confused crackpots. The reason that so many other people seem completely confused and wrongheaded is that they use different symbols and metaphors to view the world. It is impossible to discuss important issues such as politics, families, violence, justice, etc. without resorting to symbolism. Anything that does not directly refer to something that can be physically sensed, such as justice or one's concept of God must be referred to by metaphor and symbol. If you and another use different symbols, you will be unable to communicate effectively. Some of the main metaphors in use today are:

Conventional religion
Science
Power, that is, dominance and submission
Artistic and aesthetic worth
Traditional political categories
Material wealth and security
Romanticism and relationships
Honor, valor, and courage
Bigotry, racism, and exclusivity
Depth psychology (Freud, Jung, etc.)
Humanism and "new age" psychology
Traditional philosophy
Chances are that your views and beliefs about the world center around one or several of these metaphors. For example, if you see the world in terms of moral worth and submission to a higher law, you are conventionally religious. If you see the world in terms of cause and effect and experimenting to find the right solutions, you are oriented toward science.

People who share one or more basic metaphors will find that they can communicate effectively with one another and work together constructively. People who do not share any metaphors will usually be unable to regard one another with anything beyond fear, hostility, and contempt. Because of this lack of communication between groups, most discussions of important issues in the public arena quickly degenerate into grandstanding and name calling, because in the absence of real understanding between the disagreeing parties, only mob psychology is left to sway public opinion.

In all of this you may be left frustrated and unable to act, because you have not yet realized that:


The World Doesn't Want to be Saved.
The world is a teeming mishmash of cultures with a bewildering array of values and ideologies engaged in their own version of the good life. People are generally not interested in changing the metaphors through which they view the world, so real understanding between groups with conflicting viewpoints is not achievable in the short term. The good news is, that's OK, because the world isn't supposed to be saved on a global scale. It must be saved at the level of the individual. And despite the fact that the level of the individual appears to be statistically insignificant, it is in fact the most significant, because it is only at the level of the individual that a creative synthesis of conflicting metaphors can occur. Once a connection is made at the individual level, the process of spreading successful new metaphors throughout society is essential automatic if the society is ready for them. If the society is not ready, the new metaphors will not be accepted under any circumstances. So don't beat you head on a rock. Solve your own interpersonal communication problems. If the world is ready to benefit from your solutions, you will not be able to stop it from using them.


so what do you say about this point of view ????


and ya hw can i forget the song :smile:

You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the


ALBERT CAMUS:
When you have once seen the glow of happiness on the face of a beloved person, you know that a man can have no vocation but to awaken that light on the faces surrounding him; and you are torn by the thought of the unhappiness and night you cast, by the mere fact of living, in the hearts you encounter.


ALBERT SCHWEITZER:
Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful.


ALBERT SCHWEITZER:
I don't know what your destiny will be, but one thing I do know: the only ones among you who will be really happy are those who have sought and found how to serve.


ALBERT SCHWEITZER:
Happiness is nothing more than good health and a bad memory.


ALGERNON BLACK:
Why not let people differ about their answers to the great mysteries of the Universe? Let each seek one's own way to the highest, to one's own sense of supreme loyalty in life, one's ideal of life. Let each philosophy, each world-view bring forth its truth and beauty to a larger perspective, that people may grow in vision, stature and dedication.


This entry continued ...
ALLAN K. CHALMERS:
The Grand essentials of happiness are: something to do, something to love, and something to hope for.


AMY LOWELL:
Happiness: We rarely feel it.
I would buy it, beg it, steal it,
Pay in coins of dripping blood
For this one transcendent good.


ANNE FRANK:
We all live with the objective of being happy; our lives are all different and yet the same.


ANNE FRANK:
The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and that God wishes to see people happy, amidst the simple beauty of nature.


ARISTOTLE:
Happiness belongs to the self-sufficient


BENJAMIN DISRAELI:
Action may not always bring happiness, but there is no happiness without action.


BERTRAND RUSSELL:
The happiness that is genuinely satisfying is accompanied by the fullest exercise of our faculties and the fullest realization of the world in which we live.


BUDDHA:
Happiness comes when your work and words are of benefit to yourself and others.


CARL JUNG:
There are as many nights as days, and the one is just as long as the other in the year's course. Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word 'happy' would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness.


CLAUDE MONET:
The richness I achieve comes from Nature, the source of my inspiration.


ECCLESIASTES:
For everything there is a season,
And a time for every matter under heaven:
A time to be born, and a time to die;
A time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;
A time to kill, and a time to heal;
A time to break down, and a time to build up;
A time to weep, and a time to laugh;
A time to mourn, and a time to dance;
A time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together;
A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to seek, and a time to lose;
A time to keep, and a time to throw away;
A time to tear, and a time to sew;
A time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
A time to love, and a time to hate,
A time for war, and a time for peace.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

EDITH WHARTON:
If only we'd stop trying to be happy we'd have a pretty good time.


EDWARD DE BONO:
Unhappiness is best defined as the difference between our talents and our expectations.


ELLA WHEELER WILCOX:
The truest greatness lies in being kind, the truest wisdom in a happy mind.


ERIC HOFFER:
You can never get enough of what you don't need to make you happy.


FELIX ADLER:
The truth which has made us free will in the end make us glad also.


FRAN LEIBOWITZ:
Remember that as a teenager you are in the last stage of your life when you will be happy to hear the phone is for you.


FRANCOISE DE MOTTEVILLE:
The true way to render ourselves happy is to love our work and find in it our pleasure.


FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT:
Happiness is not in the mere possession of money; it lies in the joy of achievement, in the thrill of creative effort.


GEORGE BURNS:
Happiness is having a large, loving, caring, close-knit family in another city.


GEORGE SAND:
There is only one happiness in life, to love and be loved.


HH THE DALAI LAMA:
When we feel love and kindness toward others, it not only makes others feel loved and cared for, but it helps us also to develop inner happiness and peace.


HH THE DALAI LAMA:
If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.


HH THE DALAI LAMA:
Consider the following. We humans are social beings. We come into the world as the result of others' actions. We survive here in dependence on others. Whether we like it or not, there is hardly a moment of our lives when we do not benefit from others' activities. For this reason it is hardly surprising that most of our happiness arises in the context of our relationships with others.

classi song jst check it out ...

is this the SOUL :)

One imagines that he is deeply, perpetually, unavoidably aware of something he calls "I" or "me."

The philosopher then baptizes this thing his self or perhaps his mind, and the theologian calls it his soul. It is, in any case, something that is at the very heart of things, the very center of reality, that about which the heavens and firmament revolve. But should you not feel embarrassment go talk in such a way, or even to play with such thoughts? As soon as you begin to try saying anything whatever about this inner self, this central reality, you find that you can say nothing at all. It seems to elude all description.

All you can do, apparently, is refer to it; you can never say what is referred to, except by multiplying synonyms -- as if the piling of names upon names would somehow guarantee the reality of the thing named! But as soon as even the least description is attempted, you find that what is described is indistinguishable from absolute nothingness. Then when you realize that you began by fearing nothingness, that it was this invincible nothingness that was making you miserable, driving you toward madness; when you go back and review your thought and feeling and find it leading to the most familiar thing imaginable, you feel like a child caught making faces at itself in the mirror. You feel like a child plunged into anxiety by a skin blemish or ill-fitting pants, the absurdity is so overwhelming.
