The map is not the territory

The map is not the territory is just another way to point to the same thing. The map is the concept of what we have in the mind about something. It’s a belief, an image or a thought-pattern. We use this map in the same way as we use a city-map to find a location. If the map is correct, we will find our location. If it is slightly incorrect, we have to correct it by new knowledge, optimize it. If it is completely incorrect or we move to another city, we have to replace the map altogether. What is happening is that we changed the map. And this is happening all the time.

Another map is the self-image or we may call it the ego. It is everything we saved about ourselves. It is the map of ourselves and we act from it. We want to improve our self-image and we use our intellectual abilities to do so: we get our desires and we set goals and work towards them. The map called the ego is a very useful map that we constantly create ourselves. But here is the important thing: it is still a map.

It’s nice to have a map, as long as you know it’s a map

Which means:

1. The map can change : which means our self-concept (the ego, who we think we are) can change and this is the basis of personal development. This changing map includes our thoughts, beliefs and actions: the whole world-view and the self-image.

2. The map is not the territory : I am not the ego, my self-image. You are not your self-image, or in other words: You and I are not who we think we are; think in the literally sense of the word: thoughts (and all other concepts) are the map, not the territory.

The important step to Spiritual Awakening is dropping the map and experiencing what is without the map.

But, (for me at least) this means not to remove the map for all time. I need the map to function in the world and to relate to everything. So I create maps and use maps in a very intense way, in the best way possible. But there is one difference: I dis-identified the map from the territory. So I know that my self-image is my self-image but not the self.

Ken Wilber called the process "Transcend and include". Or as Genpo Roshi put it: the reason we are able to transcent the ego but still use it as a human being is that we know the Being side of the Human Being as well as the Human Side: check my posting about Personal Power vs. The Power of Now for more.

This is a Zen story I found on the website Pointing To The Moon :

"When Zen Master Nan-chuan saw his student Ma-tsu diligently practicing meditation hour after hour, he sensed a certain effort and ambition in the young monk’s demeanor, so he sneaked up behind him and asked, "What are you doing?" "I’m trying to become a Buddha," Ma-tsu replied proudly. Nan-chuan then picked up a stone and began rubbing it against a spare tile from the monastery floor. Hearing the sound, Ma-tsu asked, "What are you doing?" Said Nan-chuan: "I’m trying to make a mirror." Ma-tsu had an awakening.

And it goes on:

Everything is just as it is! Ma-tsu is Ma-tsu, the tile is the tile, and you are you, just as you are. There’s no Buddha apart from this fundamental truth, and any attempt to achieve some special state of mind just leads you away from who and what you already are. In the direct approach to truth …, the direct recognition of your true nature is available in every instant, on or off the cushion, whether you meditate or not. You merely need to "take the backward step that turns your light inward to illuminate the Self," as Dogen Zenji said." – Stephan Bodian

Time to shine i reckon

P.s Wants to do something....except not sure wat to do

Wow so long

Its been ages hasnt it.

I mean really bloody bored seeing as i cnt do anything thanks to my thumb

causing my... well developing body to be incomplete and rapidly spiraling into fatness

cant see any of those chiseled abbs now :D

but if u think about it, yoga could do a whole lot of stuff for u .... seriously-its all about the balance

the balance what all the teachers were saying at the start of the year, but wit now poor Webs trying to inhance. SO there way of saying is balance has been said ages ago---- Yin Yang.

Yin-Yang represents the ancient Chinese understanding of how things work. The outer circle represents "everything", while the black and white shapes within the circle represent the interaction of two energies, called "yin" (black) and "yang" (white), which cause everything to happen. They are not completely black or white, just as things in life are not completely black or white, and they cannot exist without each other.

While "yin" would be dark, passive, downward, cold, contracting, and weak, "yang" would be bright, active, upward, hot, expanding, and strong. The shape of the yin and yang sections of the symbol, actually gives you a sense of the continual movement of these two energies, yin to yang and yang to yin, causing everything to happen: just as things expand and contract, and temperature changes from hot to cold.

Its funny isnt it, that its only now have i realised that u sometimes need that other person to be ure counterpart. I mean ever upto this yr i have never needed someone so badly, i mean yr 7 and 8 were like shit but this yr has given me some new shit to digest ......... but just remember, what goes around, comes around

but as much as i want to rant, im keepin it in, there are people out there who just dont understand the pain people go through when they do something. heres an example that ive been through, a girl meets a random guy (MUHAHHAHHA) that she has no idea and suddenly finds spark occuring.... thing is though he has someone that likes him. Now wat shall he do, go wit the chick that he doesnt knoe, or the the girl that he knoes but doesnt like??????? Now, u woulds probs going wtf but, i feel for the person who he knoes already as she would have to put up wit loosing someone she lves for some bloody random that the guy has no idea of. I mean FAAR OUT.hmmmmmm enof of this shit

soooo im stuffed, im starting to represent a graph now, i dont knoe it is a parabola or a linear maybe even a sin graph, but this year i have been declining....shit loads. First started of with Science, then English, then my relationships wit certain staff and now with methods. BS i swear, i feel like i want to do something in life, go to the gym, get my drivers license, get the love booming again, but i swear ..... im soon gonna hit the bottom if it wasnt for certain people.

F*** of mate :D

listening to the all time oldie black and white tamil songs

P.s Cant believe how strong some people are, even when there lives have been changed, they still can manage to laugh
