Answer 2

THE BOX is an illusion.
The Aneristic Principle is that of APPARENT ORDER; the Eristic Principle is that of APPARENT DISORDER. Both order and disorder are man made concepts and are artificial divisions of PURE CHAOS, which is a level deeper that is the level of distinction making. With our concept making apparatus called "mind" we look at reality through the ideas-about-reality which our cultures give us. The ideas-about-reality are mistakenly labeled "reality" and unenlightened people are forever perplexed by the fact that other people, especially other cultures, see "reality" differently. It is only the ideas-about-reality which differ. Real (capital-T True) reality is a level deeper that is the level of concept. We look at the world through windows on which have been drawn grids (concepts). Different philosophies use different grids. A culture is a group of people with rather similar grids. Through a window we view chaos, and relate it to the points on our grid, and thereby understand it. The ORDER is in the GRID. That is the Aneristic Principle. Western philosophy is traditionally concerned with contrasting one grid with another grid, and amending grids in hopes of finding a perfect one that will account for all reality and will, hence, (say unenlightened westerners) be True. This is illusory; it is what we Erisians call the ANERISTIC ILLUSION. Some grids can be more useful than others, some more beautiful than others, some more pleasant than others, etc., but none can be more True than any other. DISORDER is simply unrelated information viewed through some particular grid. But, like "relation", no-relation is a concept. Male, like female, is an idea about sex. To say that male-ness is "absence of female-ness", or vice versa, is a matter of definition and metaphysically arbitrary. The artificial concept of no-relation is the ERISTIC PRINCIPLE. The belief that "order is true" and disorder is false or somehow wrong, is the Aneristic Illusion. To say the same of disorder, is the ERISTIC ILLUSION. The point is that (little-t) truth is a matter of definition relative to the grid one is using at the moment, and that (capital-T) Truth, metaphysical reality, is irrelevant to grids entirely. Pick a grid, and through it some chaos appears ordered and some appears disordered. Pick another grid, and the same chaos will appear differently ordered and disordered. Reality is the original Rorschach. Verily! So much for all that.

Answer 3

Very outside- More outside than many people in Krishna Consciousness But I feel it necessary to understand things as they are in reality not based on any designation. Example. We are not this body, IE Race, color, nationality, religion job, mind, intellect, etc. We are eternal spirit souls, which is beyond all material designations and all above listed are based on a material designation. We are all eternal servants of God (Also known as Krishna, Allah, Jehovah, Vishnu, et. ) God is one with many names. If we don't begin to think like this there will not be any peace within or within the world. Hallelujah, Hare Krishna, Allahk Akbar, God is one. Mother Theresa was Catholic, yet she saw beyond the body. She took the dress of India (Sari) and served those poeple unconditionally (not to convert them to Catholisism, but she saw a need and did what she fellt called to do to help the people, whos government didn't even care about the people as much as she did. She said "If you are a Christian be a good Christian, if you are a Muslim, be a good Muslim. If you are a Jew be a good Jew, if you are a Hindu, be a good Hindu." also the last Pope, John Paul II- had a best freind who was Jewish and never had any intentions of converting Him. He loved him with all of his heart. We have to develop this attitude if we want to come to the spiritual platform and get off the lower religious platform.

Answer 4

Human thinking is born out of some sort of neurological defect in the human body. Therefore, anything that is born out of human thinking is destructive.
Thought is opposed fundamentally to the functioning of this living organism.
All insights, however extraordinary they may be, are worthless, because it is thought that has created what we call insight, and through that it is maintaining its continuity and status quo.
Thought is not the instrument to help us to live in harmony with the life around us. That is why you create all these ecological problems. But the planet is not in danger; we are in danger.
The certainty that I have that there is no mind is something which cannot be transmitted to anybody, however hard I may try. You are not ready to accept this statement because the very thing which we are using to communicate is in jeopardy.
Thought is something dead and can never touch anything living. It cannot capture life, contain it, and give expression to it. The moment it tries to touch life, it is destroyed by the living quality of life.

Answer 5

Outside the box...

Answer 6

Depends on the need and the circumstances at the moment.

There is a time for firm decision making and a time when new solutions are in order. Depends on the results you want to achieve.

As the sayings go...Insanity is doing the same thing over and over expecting different results.....but also, If it's not broken, don't fix it.

Answer 10

I try to think OutSide of my House!

Your "House" is built outta all of your Thoughts about Yourself.
Your House is inside of your Mind.
(some call it the psychi) (hope it's spelled right)
Your house can become a prison if you build it with fears. Trapping you.

You can also get trapped into thinking the same way if you don't ever go Outta your House (think differently, accept new ways of thinking).
I try to Venture Out quit a bit!!!
