I was working on my Form site a little while ago, and came across this ditty posted by me four years ago.
I was struck by its applicability in explaining the catastrophic nature of the intense and destructive arguing, name calling and other conflict that has existed in the Ex-Scio community.
Here is the ditty:
ON THE SUBJECT OF PRECEPTS, BELIEFS AND THOUGHTS
This is a huge and important subject that is not properly or fully addressed in other subjects than Knowledgism.
As I have often written, your current condition is the outcome of your accumulated earlier solutions. And that is a truth that is worth pondering, as you will see as we proceed.
In our Knowledgism Dictionary, Precept is defined as follows:
Quote
PRECEPT 1. A prescribed rule of conduct or action; instruction or direction. 2. Instruction or direction regarding a given course of action, especially a maxim in morals. The basis and source of a belief system. (Study Series 3) 3. A substitute for you. It is a substitute of your perception, because you've perceived through the precept. Precepts are the basis for all study problems. The basic thing about a precept is it is a form of not being there. The precept is there, and you're not. (Lecture: "Comprehension of Precepts," January 22, 1993)
In actuality, precepts, beliefs and thoughts act as automatic false perception mechanisms that are superimposed on top of the actuality of what one should be truthfully and directly perceiving.
In the presence of precepts, beliefs and thoughts, one does not see truth: one only sees one's superimposed solutions to life. Opinions also fall into this category of alteration to actuality . . . ever tried to discuss (or argue) with anyone who is totally stuck with their beliefs and opinions about any subject in life? Opinions, of course, being what the person "thinks" about the thing being discussed.
The above is all bad enough; but here is the real disaster caused by this form of superimposed solution to life.
As Alan has revealed in our famous SPIEPIR formula, SPIEPIR is the sequence by which we Beings bring about conditions of existence, including physical universe actualities.
It runs like this: the Being, as a Spiritual presence Perceives existing conditions and, based on that perception forms an Intention regarding that which has been perceived. The intention, of course can be anything: it could be to have things continue as they are or to make changes, but either way the intention is followed by an Envisioning of exactly how the creation intended will be (including exactly when it will actualize). Following the envisioning is the development of the Plan needed to be Implemented to obtain the intended Result of the actualized vision as envisioned. Hence the acronym SPIEPIR.
And it is because of this sequence that the false perceptions introduced into this life cycle are so very dangerous and often destructive.
False perception leads the Being to create false or erroneous intentions and visions which then lead to erroneous, even destructive, plans, actions and outcomes (results).
Ever wondered why folks do stupid things or behave as such stupid twits??? Here is your answer: it lies in the fact that they are operating based on false perception arising out of having superimposed into their universe and onto the environment and others about them their "think" . . . and they do not see actuality. They only see their own created, superimposed precepts, beliefs, thought, opinions and the like.
Down in the Red Zone where delusion reigns, all this stuff actually acts as a substitute for the Being himself: that is, he himself does not do the perceiving, the precept and beliefs handle it all for him. And that in actuality is the basis of why and how these solution mechanisms were set up by the Being . . . to handle life and/or that which was too difficult at one time or another to be handled directly. He solved the situation by putting a substitute for self and his own direct perception and experiencing of the thing there instead.
In 1963, L. Ron Hubbard touched on this subject superficially. He came out with the '63 version of what he called the "Service Facsimile" (Serfac, for short). Originally, the Serfac R/D was based on finding the "safe solution" the guy was automatically and unknowingly running his life on. At that time is was said to be "a computation that made self right and others wrong, aided one's survival while impeding the survival of others and, helped one escape domination while dominating others.
Well, that was quite a good discovery as far as it went, and certainly so for the time. The following year, Hubbard goofed and claimed that listing for the "safe solution" of/on the case was an over run of the Problems Release state many had achieved.
But the big error was in thinking we each only had one "serfac" . . . we have many, many of them. Indeed it is relatively correct to say we have at least one for each of the major areas and/or subjects of case we have . . . remember, we created these things to handle "life" and its charge and problems in the stead of us; and they take many forms.
The other big error by Hubbard was in not observing these precepts, beliefs, thoughts, opinions are not just "computations" (as he called them); but are indeed THINGS. They exist as reality for the Being and have solidity and location, duration and contain all of the attributes of life itself!
Hence the "Thoughts Are Things" rundowns we have in Knowledgism. These R/Ds totally unlock, dissipate the built up charge and encysted life-force and emotions and restore the Being's cause and sovereignty in the area.
There are three such R/Ds:
The one most used is now part of the "case handling" version of our famous "Thoughts are Things Clean Slate Procedure" posted elsewhere.
Then we have two versions of the original "Thoughts are Things Exercise" as released in 2005 on the Omni-Sovereign Course. One version addresses the thoughts, beliefs and precepts you have stuck yourself with; and the other deals with the thoughts others are or have projected upon you.
Attached is the version you can use to handle the thoughts you have put upon yourself or the environment and Beings about you.
It happens I had a hand in bringing about the development of this particular tech within Knowledgism. But I'll leave that data for later when I discuss the subject of a missing step in the SPIEPIR formula (as above) that occurs at the perception step when one first makes contact with what one becomes aware of before deciding what to do about "the thing" . . . it is here that one "evaluates" (analyzes) the thing perceived as to worth, value, substance, condition, suitability, and such in order to decide what should be intended.
