Society Needs Linear Knowledge to Function

To understand how society molds the manner in which we view knowledge, lets assume that you want to improve your time management skills. 

You go to the library and flip through the index cards for an appropriate book, which is located in a pre-defined area of the library.  

You get the book and it tells you to make a list each day beginning with the most important task, second most important and so on.  If you do the three top tasks each day, you're assured of becoming a more successful person. 

The book then gives you an example.  When you go shopping, create multiple lists.  One for each of the major sections in the market such as produce, dairy and so on.  This way, you will not have to review all of the items on the list each time you move from one section of the grocery store to the next.   

What do the library, the book and the example all have in common?

1. The knowledge is linear. Each bit of knowledge is organized by the creator in a fixed relationship with all other bits of knowledge.
2. The knowledge had been defined and organized by someone else.
3. If you want to use the knowledge, you must accept that organization without question.
4. Once you accept that method of organization, you become invested and are less likely to view knowledge with another linear organization method.
5. Productive people do not challenge the linear knowledge status quo. 

Now, imagine that you are Plato.  Would you envision the mysteries of the world in this pre-ordained linear manner?  Or, would you prefer the philosophy of non-linear knowledge? 

The Philosophy of Non-Linear Knowledge

When we think of revolutionaries, we think of our Founding Fathers, Che Guevara, Lenin and so forth.  However, the only real revolutionaries are philosophers.  Everyone else just gets his or her "15 minutes of fame," as Andy Warhol would say.  

Or look at it this way.   

While we still read the original Plato, the Constitution drafted by our Founding Fathers continues to undergo revisionist interpretations; as pot smokers give homage to Che Guevara each time they buy rolling papers; and as the new Russian federation tries to figure out what to do with Lenin's semi-waxed body. 

Sadly, not all of us can pretend to be as gifted as Plato, but we have something that Plato would have traded his right anything for… the Internet.  

What the Internet gives us is the ability to be revolutionary in how we see knowledge. Here, we learn to shift our attention away from the distraction of dolphins to the more important bow wave of massive events that will shape our destiny.  

Let Need Shape The Know — Not Goals

We are a goal driven society.  We want to find the shortest possible route to work, and the quickest way into one another's wallets and beds.  This is the proverbial "getting from point A to point Z." 

Nevertheless, the bow wave of destiny we seek is formless -- yet defined; and invisible -- yet powerful.  How can we find it, let alone define it? 

The timeless gift of philosophers like Plato is their natural power of observation. They instinctively ignore the antics of dolphins in their own quest to define, shape and form knowledge without presupposing it. 

We cannot all hope to presume to be as naturally gifted as Plato, but we have an edge — the Internet.  If Plato were alive today, how would he use the Internet to find the bow wave?

The first thing Plato would recognize about the Internet is that while it does not represent "the Idea" it does lead to it.  This is because it represents knowledge without order where it is difficult for one person to mask information from others by virtue of an arbitrary, linear organization.

When we look at the governments and institutions of mankind we see large collections of ordered information, such as tax codes and congressional bills. This information is packaged in a linear fashion where every bit of knowledge is forced into a fixed position relative to every other every bit of knowledge.  

When we wish to benefit from this linear knowledge, we accept at face value the organization of the information by those who created it.   

When we wish to challenge it, we approach the knowledge with our bias and seek to reorder the information in a way that matches our goal.  Either way, the process is time-consuming, laborious and marginally rewarding. 

However, if we leave behind our ordered instincts to find information based on a rigid goal or a bias that serves to validate a position, we now move from linear knowledge to the philosophy of non-linear knowledge. 

The Philosophy Of Non-Linear Knowledge

If a light is beginning to come on in your head, you either work on Madison Avenue in New York as a well-paid advertising executive or you now know how to get there. It is called "thinking out of the box," and this is how those rascals come up some of the dandiest commercials ever, designed to jolt us into buying things we never wanted in the first place. 

Like the advertising agency guru, you know that you must first identify your need and then seek it objectively so that the natural patterns of order can emerge free of any imposed bias.  Do you need the resources of a large Madison Avenue firm to "think outside the box?" NO! 

The reason why the Internet is so incredible is that years of open-minding seeking can be reduced to a few simple search strings with your favorite search engine.  You can sit at home with your PC now and manipulate knowledge as easily as any Madison Avenue agency. 

When the Madison Avenue types want a new idea to impress those of us to live ordered linear lives, they must view knowledge in a manner that we in the mainstream are not taught, nor intended to know by those who order the lives of those in the mainstream.  Here, they turn to the to true revolutionaries when seeking an answer that lies "outside the box." 

What is the "out-of-the-box" essence of what the revolutionaries tell us? 

While these teachings are powerful, how can we use these teachings in a practical sense to define the bow wave of catastrophe as opposed to being mesmerized by the antics of dolphins? 

• The first practical tool is what salespeople call "listening skills."
• The second practical tool is organizing what you've heard or read.
• The third is to let the patterns emerge from the data in their own way.

This is how you connect bits of knowledge to form a bow wave picture.

Listening Skills

We often see the proverbial quest for information as someone with a question so pressing that he or she will climb a tall mountain for days to pose it to a reclusive wise man atop the mountain.

Why are wise men always hiding on mountaintops?  Perhaps it is to avoid the noisy clutter of linear thinkers and their conniving linear schemes to best each other.

Knowing that he cannot find peace until this seeker has an answer, the wise man listens carefully and patiently to the question.  After giving it some thought the answer is short and pithy.

In the sales profession, it is well known that 10% of all salespeople make 90% of the money. In the more ethical variants of the profession, the reason is that salespeople develop three proven listening skills.  

1. Avoid Clipping: Never interrupt someone when they are speaking.  It is a sign of rudeness that will only polarize the relationship and make it defensive.  Listen patiently and let the other person complete their statement.
2. Do Not Anticipate:  Linear thinkers always look for one end of a linear chain of thought. The instant they feel they've detected a linear chain of thought in the other person's dialogue they ignore the rest of the dialogue and begin formulating an answer.  If the other person finds they've done this through methodical questioning and was wrong, the whole dialogue becomes pointless. 
3. Ask Confirming Questions:  Once you have avoided the perception of being rude by not clipping the other speaker, and have listened to everything he or she has said by not anticipating, you are ready to assert your powers of observation with a confirming question such as, "To be sure that I properly understand you, is this what you were saying…"

These three skills empower the listener with a true understanding.  Likewise, they same skills can be employed with any other form of communication including web pages on the Internet.  

Once you've used good listening (reading) skills to acquire your data, the next step in the process is to organize that data.  

Organizing the Data

Countless volumes of books have been written about this very subject, but a good starting point could be this simple 7-stage organizational process:

The seventh and final stage, "context free thinking," presumes that there are only 50 questions are worth asking in the world and that the purpose of these significant questions is to help gather insights before making any final decision.

Crossing the Cusp: Surviving
the Edgar Cayce Pole Shift
by Marshall Masters

The Bad News You Expect and the Good News You Need

In July 2008, a two-stage crop circle larger than three soccer fields materialized in England on a farm near Avebury, Wiltshire. Unlike more common symmetrical snowflake formations, this one evidenced a clear and unmistakable message: That in December 2012 we will see the appearance of a celestial harbinger. One that portends a global tribulation in which life as we know it will come to an end.

Fully coherent and free of exceptions, the Avebuy 2008 formation is an urgent warning from distant friends to those who get it and who want to get through it. That is why the first part of this book, "The Bad News," presents a series of more than 50 illustrations to decode this message with easy-to-follow, building-block explanations. Intended for the common man, the goal is to empower the reader and this need is great.

This is because those who survive the tribulation will live to bear witness to the single greatest die-back event in the history of our species. A pole shift as predicated by America's "sleeping prophet," Edgar Cayce (1877-1945) and it could happen as soon as 2013. When it does, it will be a time of testing that favors the meek over the wealthy and powerful. But not for reasons you might think.

If you get it and want to get through it, this is the book you've been waiting for. GO
