Dealing with Symbols in Science#3 by
Dr. Peter Meier This
message is of global relevance: | |||||||||

Scenario
in which the issue of using symbols was raised:
A university Professor concerned with lifelong learning thought the language
use in Applied
Personal Science APS®
may have been a language translation issue and the nature of meanings being
interpreted differently due to cultural and language differences. At one point
he thought it must have been that the founder, me, was so clever that he was
talking on a plane that was well beyond the capacity of someone like himself
and thereby, due to his status, pretty well 97.2% of the population.
On another occasion he thought the founder needed some help with regard to the
nature of his communication while in fact the founder asked for Timely Exchange of
Project-Orientated Competence, TEPOC©. On several occasions he read the founder’s
emails and had a brief discussion with colleagues just to find that he was not
the only one having difficulty with getting the point or points made by the
founder of
science#3. He even explained to others that they were not the only
ones having some difficulties in coming to grips with various aspects of
science#3’s ideas and ended in saying that he himself was
totally puzzled about the way
science#3
uses symbols to point to what was
obvious to him in a personal encounter. I fact this highlights nothing but his X=being
in distress about
§1=existence
in view of his f=feeling of his
§3=personal
neediness for a genuinely new understanding to give meaning to his subject, lifelong
learning. In fact, in his case, he is leaning with his being towards
his feelings for it seems, in
humanistic terms
to point to a higher quality even if it indicates
the low state of the mass thinking
in terms of
organized prejudices.
However, this makes him
a good trend speaker
as is asked from professors
in the humanities...
| |||||||||
| People thus conditioned to the trend | |||||||||
|
...seem to have forgotten what they went through as children when they were capable of learning the adult way rather than insisting the adults learn their way to make them f=feel good. This indicates that people in this culture have largely lost touch with using symbols other than in art;
Actually my mother-in-law in Adelaide has the right question ready for all who jump away from the meaningful way to use symbols: “If everyone would jump of the Harbour Bridge, would you jump too?” People who do jump, lose their ability to communicate their ideas and thus can no longer understand others who can still do it for they have replaced their e-motions with fear that the pre-trans-trapping punishment of the collective applies! Traditionally speaking this is madness, in modern, solution-oriented terms, their mental operating system is cannibalized by the so-called c3-mental virus which needs to be overcome by an enhanced mental immune system!
| |||||||||
| All human religion and culture | |||||||||
|
...is
filled with more or less ancient symbols. Symbols can be more or less
expressive in themselves as art or they can, in a more or less
relevant ways point to something that is
important to consider – provided we already have a
relationship to what is thus point out to be relevant, such as is the case with a name of
someone we know, and which we can or are willing to look at when thus referred
to with a pointing symbol. Symbolism has come down to us
through many myths which are supposed to illustrate universal human
beliefs and collective archetypes which are then talked into having
an impact on all of inner
life. They are cultivated in vastly intricate religious, psychological,
philosophical and status symbol based power systems such as Church, Masonic,
military, dictatorial and economic rituals...
| |||||||||
| Symbols in Themselves... | |||||||||
|
Symbol
systems hold in themselves
much that is supposedly of value
in the understanding of the nature of humankind in its historical
perspective such as in the history of art and associated virtual realities
stemming from the “golden calve”. Their usage in %6=projective
psychological, mythological and power symbol systems such as army rank and
other status symbols and today in subliminal marketing is,
however, very much removed from the helpful
educational role it once played in the relational way where it
pointed to something people had their own relationship to and which could
thus
be meaningfully brought to attention and revived. However, It was soon misused
to mystify those who can no longer speak, the
dead ones and those who this were glorified beyond measures such as royals
and potentates and intellectuals...lately by
themselves... If symbolic mythology is equated
with human psychology such as in psychology (Jung) and astrology then it would be true that statistical and
mathematical research methods applied to the hypothesis offered by symbol
systems will show the usefulness of such symbol systems as a necessary
area of the psychological sciences. However, that
will closes human systems around the dynamics of their symbols such
as wordy philosophy does. It ends up in self-destructive human systems
as we find them today globalizing themselves say under the % and $
sign - governed by the economic imperative to form the ultimate evil
empire... Just as the vast majority of
qualified scientists#1 do not wish to research the non-tangible aspects of
the inner dynamics of symbols, so do the vast
%1=majority of sincere students#2
of symbolic mythology lack sufficient
scientific and mathematical training to legitimately
demonstrate an appropriate level of scientific validity for symbol systems
to the intelligentsia of the world. In fact, marketing research has
displaced them professionally such as with CRM customer resource
management tools. However, they are successful in luring
people’s mind to use them in what ends up word
magic in rhetoric and the multimedia
conditioning of small and big children’s minds via television. Moreover, there are many publicly
practicing charlatan astrologers and their modern successors in politics
and marketing with their many invalid claims made in esoterically incoherent public
presentations, Most significantly is the
selfish misuse of symbolism in hierarchical power structures. That has greatly
hampered the appropriate use of symbolical systems,
beginning with algebra, in their proper role of educating and
helping human beings to form a lifefulfilling
enhancing mental operating system. Our mind in fact deals with inner
symbols to help us become aware of all the experiences to which its bearer is
open for. Symbolism needs to "be lifted out of the hands of those misusing it for their own hidden agendas. Misuse is ranging from those 'casting' horoscopes up to mass manipulators, so-called concerned consultants and fast trend speakers in the media, economy and in politics. The aim of the game is to lure the target group in a feel good cloud in order to cash in on them, or as intellectuals, to get fame. The
basics for meaningful symbolic communication must be placed in the
hands of people who have given as much time to scientific training about
its lifefulfilling implication as is now given to the training of a
reliable pilot or a genuinely reputable physician... With empty symbol systems people are urged in a self-deceptive magic way to make each other feel better than they really are. The underlying belief is to become free with a feel-good non-truth. This is in fact the Creature immersing him- or herself in his or her own feeling detached from the reality of Creation. Humans thus breaking the tie to the Creator and his way to lifefulfillment offered on the basis of truth. Ignoring it we become sinful humans in the collective's image of the spirit of the time, some call it the devil. It all began with the fig leaf, cloth, houses, fortresses up to George W. Bush's dream of an anti-missile defense system to protect the American way of life, immersed in the arrogance of trying to ignore the already minimalist Kyoto protocol, that is not sufficient to safe this planet from humanity... You might consider the above sequence of symbols conveying the intended call to order and the underlying warning a mere, more or less likeable excitement and miss the point as did the arrogant officers in Pearl Harbour or on the Titanic, or for that matter the Challenger Disaster managers at NASA, or you can wing, as the above mentioned professor did and break the chain of meaning that makes life worth being fulfilled...

...in a personally-neutral
way for science#2 to support
expressing the personally
relevant science#3, needs to be worked out just as science#1
did it for medical purposes. That would be the
task our professor should fulfill to makes lifelong learning feasible
beyond political dealing and wheeling! However, the
political system were he came from makes
sure he cannot transcend
it! Proper science, however, has to reach
beyond what “sounds good” to the mass
from hearsay and proven relevant and
operational with an appropriate symbol system just as in any other truly
value producing area. It is not a matter of any symbol system's
appropriate usefulness in the management of human
nature, such
as the role model,
snake did in paradise,
that is magic preceding
science.
It is a matter of making an appropriate model of the
laws of lifefulfillment operational with an appropriate symbol
system. It has to do justice to the self-sustained basics it is supposed
to point to, lifefulfillment,
not to itself pretending to be self-sustained, and this with more emphasis
on its mnemonic that its aesthetic quality!
Among others, because the Catholic Churches violated this demand,
they were "deregulated" of seductive
junk in the Reformation - which was of
course also misused to throw out the
baby, the word of God, with
the bathwater, hermeneutically
wordy philosophy! The relevant science#3
to model how to overcome this gravest problem has
been worked out as Applied
Personal Science APS®. The central tenet
of APS is that all relationships are determined by resonance
with innate open-ended generative principles, OEGP
and that this "resonance" can be directly parameterized in an appropriate symbol systems
that points to the underlying dimensions and modes of lifefulfillment
in which
we all experience our lives and become aware of the urge to fulfill it.
| |||||||||
| The language of science#3, APS | |||||||||
|
...marks recognition, points of contact
which rightly (with an appropriate mental
operating system) interpreted, indicate the laws of innate qualities and relationships
of past, present and future experiences. These laws are, within a person's
life, as surely as the rising of the
sun indicates the beginning of a new day. When all the relationships governed by
the laws of lifefulfillment can be
sufficiently understood and
accepted, the majesty, the lifefulfilling
purpose and the power of personal life can be dignified.
The it can be raised to its true meaning
in the minds of men. Up to then, as now,
it is merely
relegated to the shades of superstition and made a by-word and epithet of
contempt by some, and used for the deception and beguilement of their
fellowmen by others who seek a position
of power.
| |||||||||
| Understanding the lifefulfilling qualities | |||||||||
|
...allows to build
an up-to-date
understanding of our relation through reflective resonance patterns
relating to the broader live processes. You will note that the purpose of
this site is to evoke
interest and enquiry and to incite students to applied,
personal scientific investigations in their own way.
This is achieved by accessing your experiences with human systems, above all their
own, for reflections. Only
in this way can the basic premises put forth here be proven to YOU and eventually
substitute the present unsatisfactory methods. The methods provided by our
outdated culture are regarded, by people who have
any
real capacity and insight, as deplorable and
unsatisfactory. In fact it can be prove
that and how they lead to the ultimate
human catastrophe; collective suicide.
In conclusion, Applied Personal Science APS® can appropriately resolve many age-old issues and provide an efficacious perspective from which many helpful understandings in terms of the lifefulfillment for as many as possible can be derived and demonstrated up to building lifefulfilling platforms. | |||||||||
