Skills of Christmas gnomes 29. About heroes, wisdom of feelings and mourning the dead
The parts 1. - 28. are available as seven books at the Amazon internet bookshops, at www.amazon.fr for example. Search "tervola", or visit my author page www.amazon.com/author/khtervola .
d1. If you do not like how people live and do things where you live, do you have some ideal picture of what life ought to be like, especially miljo, social relations and ways of doing things, for example what type of thinking to use and how is it intertwined with the rest of life and the society? If these have some amounts and distancies & other measures, such are often typical to a certain climate or often climate zone. Is there any climate or clishee like country where such would be right for you? Could you be happy there and in harmony with the environment? Is there any other place where it would make sense for you to live, can you find yoyr naturaö harmonical environment, a place according to your likings?
d2. 17th of July 2023 In the almost arctic regions where nature is more scarce and where spring comes later, it is difficukt to understand the feeling of lush green and of the beauty of nature if one comes to visit from where there were already more leaves, more lush green. It is much easier to apprexiate the beauty of nature and ghe wisdom of the good old ways of living in that climate, if one is solely or mostly only kn a group of locals there. I guess that so one can also recatch some of the atmospheric besuty of the old time's ways of living, if one has a photograpf book of such, like I once read about Finnish Lappland's winter kn the old times' way a book "Kaamoksesta kevääseen" and another about a year in reindeer herding chores "Poron vuosi" it was called, if I remember right.
d3. What does not make sensd, is that the new thousand years from 2000 onwards are often referred to as just "2", which is much too simple, just catastrophical stupic level of complexity for lufe, society and the world. One should mention the thoysands, like this year 2023, and everything woukd be run much more smoothly, in a much wiser way.
Also, thinking of a little bit over "2", does not seem to lift quality. If one would instead think that "this is the third thousand, we have the possibility to build a wise flourishing thousand years". Third can be somehow religiously good place to live kn, bring life toward better.
d4. If one has some traditional kind of hobby, like handiworks or playing a traditional music instrument, there often are several versions of such with different styles connected with different towns or districts with different ways of living, different traditions, main professions cared about, typws of houses and garden like yards, types of clothing and types of persons, and what is cultivated in the area nowadays. So if one can pick of these some options that is one's favourite in many respects, it offers a good way to cultivate traditilns in the modern world and so choosing there often is a lot kn the way of living which still holds to one the fascinatiln and good quality of the well chosen ways of the old times.
d5. 19th of July 2023 People have different hobbies or interests depending on what they long for into their life. I have always liked the visual beauty of the wild nature and enjoyed healthy ways of living, valuing the wusdom of the nature. So I have always admired things found from the nature, like a colourful stone, a piece of brach, a bird feather found in the ground and the old skin of an insect which has changed to a new form. So I have also liked green plants on a window, pictures on walls and some traditional handicrafts. Here in a cold climate of four seasons such is important when one cannot spend so much time outdoors and enjoy the nature there and when the nature is much more scarce than kn the summer time. So I liked it a lot when my parents bought aquarium fishes, first very easy ones and then with the help of livrary's aquarium hobby guidebook a real aquarium with sand, water plants, some old piece of wood shaped by waves and colourful fishes of different kinds, with air bubble device, fish food, bright lamps and some green water landscape picture behind the aquarium, etc. Later, likewise with the help of guidebooks and advices from others my brother had deserg mice and I a hamster. When I was 13 my parents bought us a black poodle which I liked a lot since it brought walks in the nature, time in the garden and was of the kind of company I liked, also the coat was nice to take care of. My parents had earlier had a dog in their childhood family and we got advices from other dog owners. Liking a few walks a dsy year around in all weathers is the most common reason for choosing a dog as a pet, as far as I know. But one can have other kinds of hobbies too, like handiworks and sports and reading novels for example. Some like to travel and go to places. For some social life is most rewarding, or their work if they have a dream job and free time lufe undisturbed too.
d6. 22th of July 2023 The Canadan way to live the weathers is as far as I know to stay warm. It is so cold in Canada, especially in the winter time, that all are afraid of cold and that is the major tune of life. So Canadan way to live the seasons seems to be to spend the majority if time in bed warmly under a thick padded winter blanket, in addition to eat quite much often, evennif one isn't hungry. And to spend time outdoors only the necessary minimum like teavel to work and to food shop. Outdoors one ought to have warm clothes, almost always ghe same but with extra measures when needed. One walks outdoors as if a packet, warm and well eaten, not carkng much of the feel of the weather or the beauty around, just stsying warm. But such does not bring a good capacity, neither enjoyment of life like the more leisurely four seasons and their variations bring in milder climates.
d7. 27th of July 2023 Come to think of it maybe views of warfare were different in the old times. Like if there were only separate farms and villages, maybe individual Finnish villages didn't fight against an invading small group of Russian soldiers but instead let it pass through peacefully, if they thought that thete was a reason for the war, big feelings and a strong motivatiln for some causes on some groups of the society but otherwise a wish of all on both sides of the border for normal life to run well, without much disturbancies.
There may be many stories of history like there are many versions of wisdlm of life, but I have heard that in the World War II some neighbouring countries wished for very good German cultural influencies like thry had brought up their young and so they welcomed the invaders just peacefully marching through their city for the growd to learn from the wisdom of life of the young adult German soldiers. Such makes much more sense for cultural learning than just destruction.
I do not know when such ended. Was it in World War I in Poland when tanjs for the first time fought against a group of soldiers on horses? That is said to have been a major turning point. The horses had no chances, but the horses were liked and valued, also that cavalry was valued. So according to some okd view they should have been given the victory, and so the wisest most skilled would have won respect and that would have been culturally good.
Where does the view of warfare as side against another come from, is it from.playing chess? It sounds that the charavteristics of how war is tjought of come from fearing the modern weapons and on the other hand from people having felt that they need to learn more engineering and construction skills. Also there is the fear of some other country invedting in bigger eeapons for years and years, and so just cpnquering the more naturally inclined,
d8. That brought to my mind the "Polish campfire song" which though may be a Finnish melody.
The piano on the video plays first the repeated part, sfter which the song begins:
"Ja me muistain sankariaikaa
sadun tenhon tunnemme taikaa,
kun laulumme yön yli kiirii
ja kun hongat huminoi."
"We have in the forest a campfire circle,
where the whispering of thick needle trees sings.
Sparkles hurry toward the stars,
even the near by trees glow reddish.
:,: And we remembering the ancient times of heroes
feel the tales' fascination's magic,
when our songs sound is heard above the night
and when the pines make their humming sound. :,:
Fire flamingly licks the wood,
dim shimmering light dresses the forest and ground.
We hear stories, shouts, nothing else,
the hearts catch fire to feel.
:,: And we remembering... :,:
And when dims the slowing glow of the coals of the fireplace
and when falls quite warm night,
in the last song sings devoted thankfulness,
Saint George's work calls for doing. ( There is some old tale that the hero Saint Yrjö slaid several-headed dragons, which is somebody's idea of sleeping dreams. )
:,: And we remembering ... :,:
( Clarification made the following day : Here is a peaceful "slayer" of a 1 000 000 000 -headed dragon: )
d9. I used to read Tao-te-ching ( just Stephen Mitchell's very good English translation ) when I was a young adult. It is a two thousand years old Chinese guide to learning masterful skill, if one has good quality skills kn objective thinking and is highly educated and would like to continue to things of more worth to the world than just the education but just civilicedly, wisely and with wisdom of life. The main teachings are that one should build on the ground that each one naturally has, so of arranging things well in the world that means building on the ages old human nature, on yhe natural elements of healthy ages old basic life, for example on the tendency to build things well for life in the respects that one cares about, and with the wisdom of the culture all needed and wanted things in the society so arranged or given the possibility to.
(Clarification made in tge following day : The Finnish army does not usually rise to it's full potential: )
d10. When I was a young adult and already as young at school, young men and kids wondered at the modern world, civiliced countries being so much the same that wars seemed unlikely and not so big reasons for them. But as we know, if some person or country is a pacifist, it has an increased need for defending itself milutarily. So having skills for defending the country seemed a necessity but in the 1980's many of the parents were pacifists. So boys and young men noticed that Arabs do fight wars and defend theur coubtry without running into disastrous problems because of the too big destructiveness of the modern weapons. So some young men asked some Arab men advice about it, but the Arabs said that they do not know, they just fight and it goes quiteok. Theh said that they have a viww of their own each. The Fknnish young men tried it with an engkneering head and boys only and went rigidly running around with slme mindless irratilnal or very low quality theory perspective that was like a robot like lufe under stuck views. Thst was not the idea, the Arabs' views was with fractureless feeling like Orthodox Christianity for one who longs into such, like a convinced view of wise civiliced values kn the society, of well running sides of lufe that one understands in tge lufe around and which are according to wise civiluced values, and also a view of defence safehuarding the lufe on that small area or cultural district witjout breaking agsinst beautiful moral values in the world at large. But such means that the boys' abd men's own views shoukd include civiluced wisdom as it's part and that the views, opinions and skills, practical choices etc shoukd be wisrly abd with clmmln sensd discussed with others kn the society, so that valyes and level of commln sense & wisdlm & skills ard all right, and methods too ok, and the boys & men etc just need tl be convknced, support such chouces with their understanding and feelings of possible life choices for themselves. I do not know if Finns would agree to defend just traditional kinds of things in a traditilnal way, but I guess that people in Finland would defend things that they value in their lives. One of such things seems to be philosophy, the cultivation of wise and open-minded intelligent good quality objective thinking and wise life with the help of it's guidance.
d11. In practising the Japanese martial arts, there are tales of old masters and skills and virtues that one could learn. I practised aikido for a luttle bit over ten years, and even though there were no advices or forefigures, I managed to learn, since I was especially interested kn it, an awareness of the people around in daily life, typically on a street, so that I mostly know if someone is approaching me from behind and where they are. That is partly a question of hearing and partly in being a part of the lufe around, so that one notices different kinds of atmospheres, social factors, happenkngs, even ways & ways of different styles, etc in the environment. For hearing especiallyit is important to have sensitively alive neck and shoulders with their environment, like listening to nice beautiful music but a continuous effect of music. For being tuned to the lufe around it helps if one lives in a place that one enjoys, like birdsong on both sides of the street with besutiful varied views too and leaves on the ground or otherwise nice miljo kn all respects, like such is for nature lovers, turn toward the lufe around like you feel delughted about it, and so you notice everything around there, also the other people walkibg there. But it ought not have only single eyecatchers or major objects of attentiln, instead look at the landscapes.
d12. 28th of July 2023
A hundred lightnings spark fire by Vicky Rosti
" Light lands get darker
Singing trees get quiet
The children of the streets
go and hide themselves
When the storm rises
Let us now collect our fears away
Nothing could take away from me
When love presses itself against the chest
And there comes a warm feeling to one's heart
A hundred lightnings spark fire of love
And whole life dazzles like an explosion
One cannot take love away from me
The hope arising from my wisdom of life would remain
When a hundred suns shine for us
And your ship is ready to rise
I will take this love to safety
And we will find a new land
Near the warmth of your love I get
To be like dreams of the exhausted land
The last dreams from the harsh winds of the night
Gives us shelter
I see the truth in your hope
Toward a flame whisperingly
Only real love will lead us to the right
It will save us
A hundred lightning of strenght of a loving being spark fire
And whole life dazzles as if an explosion
One cannot take love away from me
The hope born of my wisdom of life will remain
When a hundred suns shine for us
And your ship is ready to rise
I will take to safety this love
And we will find a new land
Out there are thousands of worlds
And one of them is ours
Even though a hundred lightnings would spark fire
Even if one's whole life woud explode
I will take to safety this love
And we will find a new land
I will take to safety this love
I just change to a snow white land
"
Emotional wisdom is the same kind as if you in sports or in walking can step either badly for the leg so that you feel pain and maybe hurt your leg, or you can choose based both on feelings, common sense and wisdom of life, what is a good way to step, so the best choice both feels good, you know from that that such is in some ways good for you, and it also is according to what your understanding and life skills say of a good way to step. Likewise with other skills that you are motivated toward, feelings reflect how well or poorly the different sides of the things done and reached are for your life, for ways of doing, for ways of living, for the goals in doing, for their effect in the world and also otherwise their effects on the environment, for the area of life at hand, for it's skills and values and for the future. Feelings kind of remark yourself that something is well or poorly, and then one's senses, understanding, etc, try to form a good picture of those things and of them as parts of the world, and so you can across time learn a lot from such. The good side of this way of learning is that it is natural, it is like humans are intended to function, and one can lesan a lot about good ways of doing this way, so that it is a good way to grow in talents and to higher skills and to learn common sense in what thing is a question of what.
About the rationality of feelings in the light of evolution, see my book at a link from the first post of my blog workandfreetime.blogspot.com .
I thought the singer was a female police, but if she is/was instead in medicine, I add here just in case it would be needed, a link to my healing blog curingguesses.blogspot.com and to the Finnish original parantamisesta.blogspot.com , but I am just a writer, one can buy my books at www.amazon.com/author/khtervola or at the other Amazon internet bookshops.
d13. In the news there have been articles of different lax types of fishes. The articles have videos and it seems that certain lax type of fishes live as young in the sea and rise to the lake district Saimaa or toward it. The fishes seem to say that as old they travel to ghe ice sea and rise to Lappland's rivers there, tens of thousands of old fish with a different maybe Santa like look rise to the rivers there. But the fishes say that there is no food in the lakes there, no water plants, small water animals or other food in water there, contrary to what they were told, and so the old fishes die of hunger. So humans think them a not-natural species and fish tens of thoudands of them away. At Saimaa young lax type fishes are shaken by their dear elderly dying and so some of the younger fishes die too. https://yle.fi/a/74-20042877
d14.
An elderly man's first thoughts when his spouce has just died. Living long together as a family, if it is a happy family creates strong habits, the life together is largely in the things done. And if one liked the things done, the way of life, one is likely to continue such when one is left alone, and so the sorrow gets gone through only slowly as the sphere of life changes on some of it's sides to something new with which is good to live. If some of the habits were only the spouce's likings, such are likely to give room to new kinds of aress of life with which it is good for one to live. It is also good to wish well for the deceased in a kind of civiliced polite way, since such is good if there is life after death, somehow one is less fractured then, life just was together and continued separate ways, wishing both well.
d15. Death at war time is a different thing to think through, and even more different it is as these modern times. At wartime many die and life circumstancies in the society and in the individual lives change for many. The first thought that comes to mind that it isn't good that so many die in a war. One should know better what to fight for and how to safeguard the rest of life from too much harm. Safeguarding basic healthy life I guess ought to be a common value and well known skill in the countries. Some soldiers fight to make a suicide, such does not sound in any way beneficial to the country, it arises just a thought that it is a pity that he had such a suffering and hope that he finds rest if there is some kind of life after death. The basic advkce for a soldier in the frontline would be to keep enough distance to the enemy's fire and keep eyes open, stay out of harms way if you can and remember that many die from fire from their own lines. Basic advice is don't trust without safety precautions. In the wartime many die and it may happen that people just feel that there are much more scarcely people of their own natiln than before, and culture changes both because of the times and because of foreign cultural influencies, so people propably mourn lost luves together with the lost cultural ways of living, kind of wondering why could things not have stayed the old culture's way. Wartime likelily arises thoughts of betrayals amobg one's own country, of why good landscape like view with basic life safeguarded, why such would trust technical lying people who produce just harm, upon whose deeds one cannot build a society. It propably also places attentiln on that straighforward solutions suit children in army but are often not safe enough if there are adults along, and one ponders what to think of the possibility of a child to choose how one dies, child's own fate, sometimes some things just have to be done, like a child going yo the war if the child is most suppirting, causing such a war.
d16. In order that life would be good to live, one ought to live wisely and with feeling according to one's ages old nature, do things for the world to be good to live in, for all fairly, now and in the future, and in doing so one ought to take care that one lives a good life while one so does. Only then it makes sense, and only then the influencies to others are good and with wisdom of life.
d17. 29th of July 2023 There is a beautiful emotional very famous old song which Konsta Jylhä composed for the memory of his violin player father.
Quietened violin
The violin has quietened
Playing has ceased
Which formerly twingling sensitively sounded
Joys of humans
Sorrows of hearts
The most beautiful chords brought to life
Like only a violin can be played
Now violin alone
Longing on it's wall
Is remembering the one who
Slept already away
He formerly with his violin stick
Caressed his music instrument
To most beautiful chords'
Charm's state of mind got people
Like only a violin master
Can get
"
Children who like to play some music instrument tend to like this song, thinking that such as violin master's lifetime work is something worthwhile to do in one's life and a suitable foregigure for them even if they aim to some entirely different profession.
d18. Frederik : Volga
"Volga, to it's shore ride
Ivan and Katjusha
Long is the road.
Volga, save love,
show it's righteousness,
bring it to safety.
Ivan encourages his horse to run
the tsar's men are following them near by
and to small Katja's hair's scent gets mixed fear that is unmeasurably huge
:,: Volga, Volga,
love (one's wisdom of life) or death,
fear and being attacked,
Hoh hoh hoh hoh hoo
Volga, Volga
as wild and free,
you cannot be imprisoned
hah hah hah hah haa
Volga, Volga,
love or death,
fear and being attacked,
Hoh hoh hoh hoh hoo
Volga, Volga
Show us Caspian sea,
there we will be safe. :,:
Volga, waiting only for the night
Ivan and Katjusha
makes one grazy
Volga, the horse already breathes loudly
Do we need to give up?
Never ever!
They would never see the sea (sex)
Ivan turns against the enemy
To Volga's sand gets mixed blood
The current brings it toward the Caspian sea.
:,: Volga, Volga ... :,:
They would never see the sea (sex)
So Ivan turns against the enemy
To Volga's sand gets mixed blood
Until the very end I'm yours
" Volga, Volga ... :,:
Volga, Volga
Love or death
..."
d19. Rio bravo, John Wayne, Dean Martin etc composing music of their way of life
The modern technology creates dangers that ought to be prevented in order to ensure a good future for all.
MOTIVATION FOR ADULTS
Nowadays the kids and teenagers cannot help but notice that their future includes life with technology, with the both good and bad sides of living with technology and computers especially.
Technology is a new factor in the world. It is being rapidly developed and adabted to all kinds of uses, some of which scare the youngsters by their possible side effects, like the possibility of a life-sustaining computer system getting badly broken, or by their use to questionable purposes, like the use of computers in control, governing and warfare that can via computer problems, but also in other ways, end in disasters.
HERE ARE SOLUTIONS, CURE SUGGESTIONS, TO MANY OF THESE TECHNOLOGISED HORROR SCENARIOS:
Even though I use here the biological picture of humans as products of the evolution, all of these results ought to apply also in the case of a wise god having created us.
Most of these horror scenarios include power in the hands of the few, who may be cool, calculating, ruthless, uncaring and mainly selfish. So the cure includes mainly an explanation of how the selfish good of a single person or group is equal to them wanting the good of the whole world:
If you want the greatest benefit for yourself, you want the best alternative in that respect to be in power in the world. That alternative does not depend on who is the one who gets benefit, and that alternative is known: it is good world wide moral in arranging everything in the world.
By justice you take care that good benefical options get supported and poor ones discouraged and so dropped away as the time passes. That is exactly the same principle by which market economies create a higher standard of living. It is also the same as the principle in real holistic objectivity: to aim at treating each thing according to what it is like.Demanding that from all, is called demanding carrying responsibility about ALL the consequencies of one's actions.
So these three or four (incl. market economy) ought to go together with the aim of selfish gain for all.
A bigger group creates a bigger benefit, so seek to keep all the parts healthy: follow human values!
And that is already a very good world wide moral!
So whoever is in power, ought to respect the moral ways of arranging the society, regardless of whether it is the people themselves or some minor group like amafia, a military coup, a world computer, artificial intelligence meant for a shoe factory running wild., or whatever. Just if it is rational enough, and there is a very easy guide to rationality that I have made to teach all humans, (and too stupid computers are predictable by more advanced computers), well then it ought to agree to be moral if it is just informed clearly enough about the beneficiality of moral to that group itself, and that saves us!
This way we have already handled the cases of a military coup, mafia taking control, selfish uncaring rulers of some other type, a computerised world government regardless of whether it was planned or not, and propably many other cases too - provided that the world is tough enough to support selfish ways and that the rulers are capable enough to undertsnad this much about what is their own good... Also, one might add that since this type of moral is so general in form, it applies also if you and possibly all the others are virtualised i.e. in an artificial virtual world: good world wide moral of the above kind is still the best option in how to arrange the whole and how to behave oneself.
How come optimising and moral bring the same result? There is lots of work done in the society. Optimising means thinking how that work done could best benefit the society, i.e. what would be the most moral way to work for the good of all.
There are some easy principles which are worth taking into account:
Harmony: the value of harmony as a vector sum, the harmfulness of conflicts as a vector sum plus as the harmfullness of brokedness
Health: the value of a the health of each whole compared to the harmfulness of the brokedness of each whole
Justice and objectivity: the value of giving correct feedback to things: the value behind the success of market economies, evolution, objective thinking, common sense with a holistic view, honesty and justice;the value of putting each piece to its correct, best place in a system.
Society agreement: the value of rules of behaviour: cultivating something.
(The society agreement:
Put cooperating parties to the same island in the respects that they cooperate, and conflicting parties to different islands. Those on the same island agree to work for the common goals by doing what is needed for reaching them -> rules of the island needed for the cultivation of those things. Share the results of cultivation according to justice. One can create islands for the exchange of goods (money and trade, friendship, local cooperation etc.). Thus get created all the human-made things in the world, both good and bad. So this way you can understand the world. This way you can see how we all together make the world what it is. Just see what are your goals and what is needed for the cultivation of them. That is what you are bound to, that is what you are entitled to, to the extend that you succeed in your work. Thus you build home, food, work, hobbies, family, friends,protection against others,….)
WHY CRIME DOES NOT PAY: UNBIASED CALCULATIONS IN A VALUE-FREE BASIS
If there is some malicious practise here lacking, it is because I didn’t remember it, not because I wouldn’t know how to optimise it away!!!
THE LIST OF CRIMES WITH EXPLANATION OF WHY TO AVOID THEM IF ONE IS SELFISH:
Robbery, criminals, unjustices of every kind
* give feedback to those who cause each thing in the world(health), so you can optimise toward better -> justice and fair play, responsible behaviour: causes and consequences taken into account (health)
* breaking (= a fractured whole) versus cultivating (health) in what creates profit -> support just cultivating: good moral!
Slavery and other kinds of forcing
* The human goals in life and the human needs are connected (health) plus answering the human needs and the working condition of the human are connected (health), so depriving a person from free moral action lessens the person's working ability noticeably (= a fractured whole).
* Too much forcing forces one to a revolution (= a fractured whole), to extreme means, so keeping the people under control is the harder the more artificial and unhuman, unfair (= a fractured whole) the arrangements of the rulers are.
Drugs, hypnosis, torture etc.
* Less individual guidance (= a broken whole) is harmful just like in the cases of slavery and control devices.
* Typically such means would be used against (= a broken whole) the reasoning of the individual (health), against the individuals' and society's needs (health) and so against work efficiency and work endurance and system's ways of functioning (health) - such doesn't make sense.
* Also if such means are used to put a wrong class of persons or things into power, against justice, that means against reasoning (Read the text Justice and optimising) and is harmful to the whole and to the parts; it also centres the lives upon wrong questions(= a fractured whole) compared to what the efficiency, guidability and work endurance point of view demands (health).
* such cause that one's actions do not correlate (= a fractured whole) well enough with the reality, such creates non-functioning in those respects (= a broken whole).
* The natural goals in human life (health) make sense and fit together with the happiness of others too, so one should be able to live with the whole group in a good functioning order: that would give the strongest group (health).
Manipulation by the social instincts, by religion etc.
* manipulation bythe strongest instincts of humans is like manipulation by causing hunger, it causes a situation where the manipulated person is in a wrong role in the society (= a broken whole), the benefit going to different hand than those who created the benefit and so the system supports some malfunction instead of healthy life, prosperity and good of the nation (health).
Other kinds of manipulation
* manipulation means often that things are used to wrong purposes, some short-sighted technically thinking parasite like persons benefiting (= a fractured whole) instead of those who build the society, like farmers for example by producing food (health).
Technology at large, control devices
* Compare control to only a few persons of a certain kind via the technology (= a fractured whole) or what freedom of the moral ones gives: a correctable system with the thinking ability of all used thoroughly in making the arrangements of the society (health)
* The benefits of good moral would give: real support which leads to safety, guidability, cooperation, higher intelligence of the system, better endurance, more optimised toward efficiency (health)
Supercomputers, computer networks etc.
* Can be used to rationality, optimising, that's good if it is done morally, like for example this book of mine seeks to teach to do in ways, which are easy to program to computers. (Healthy works better than a broken one.)
* The value of human ways from the efficiency point of view: if you use human workers or human subordinates, human values are valuable to you (health), like this book of mine seeks to show, regardless of what kind of leadership (= a fractured whole) there is.
* Feelings of humans connect to their needs, which in turn connect, to their actions and well functioning and well-functioning is important for workers (health).
* Differences in the types of understanding of humans and computers: the natural understanding of humans about human functioning can be used too (health), and be of mutual benefit.
Artificial living conditions and malfunctions created by them
* The human nature is still the same, one created by the natural evolution: human needs and ways of functioning stay the same so best functioning is attained via healthy happy natural life
* The human being is an optimised whole: the different parts support functioning (health); if one tries new combinations (= a fractured whole), they typically don't produce a good functioning so there is nothing to gain in work efficiency by artificial living arrangements (= a fractured whole), torture etc. (= a fractured whole)
Mutations
* mutations usually create non-functioning individuals who die very young
* somehow beneficial mutations or gene manipulation would bring new qualities which are not fitted well together to the whole, so they do not support the life of the organism and the organism isn't strong enough to support them (= a fractured whole), much less of being adapted to the larger environment (health)
Cool calculating behaviour
* The good side is that it is important to measure sizes correctly.
* Humans have feelings in order to help in understanding things (health), not using feelings as a way to guide one's behaviour (= a fractured whole) makes one dangerous to one's social environment (= a fractured whole), a person who even alone destroys much of the functioning of the society.
* Understand that you must always cooperate morally, especially in the largest scale (health).
Selfishness
* Humans are pack animals: the group supports the functioning of the individual and social life is emotionally rewarding (health)
* cooperation creates the force of masses (healthy whole), so moral is beneficial
* moral means cooperating for common good, i.e. for the good of all (health)
Commercial things
* Meeting human needs sells best (health).
* If the state has enough tax money, one can let the things, which are for, common good (health) compete just like other things compete in a market economy.
War, armies, militaristic ways
* the value of peace and harmony (health) versus the harm caused by conflicts and wars (=a fractured whole)
* Upbringing of the next generation needs peaceful circumstances (healthy whole).
* A home to defend makes the soldiers fight better (healthy whole).
Short term view at the expense (= a fractured whole) of a long term view (health):
* our thinking and our instincts demand us to take care of the future, so they do not support our actions if we do not care for the long term success. Such a deficiency in planning and motivation is also a serious short term drawback.
A partial view at the expanse (= a fractured whole) of a holistic view (health):
* the first point in thinking is to get at least the main points right. That is possible only via using a holsitic view. So one using a partial view lacks the guidance of true objectivity.
Understand that every obstacle on the road toward meeting the natural needs of humans, makes smaller the amount of labour force in use and makes its working ability smaller, causes opposition and so makes the system less stabile, less guidable and less self-repairing and less intelligent (because of less natural cooperation and less well functioning workers).
So, good
IS
stronger than evil.
THE ANSWER GUIDELINES
TO THE HORROR SCENARIOS:
world computer governing
rationality + optimising toward any goal -> health as a means of optimising -> healthy ways of lviing, healthy world, holistic rationality
robots running wild
optimise them & their group & their leaders to be moral, see my texts above and my book “Year 2030:…” about that
life sustaining computer programs turning upside-down or otherwise broken
broken, for example upside-down, is not optimised, so make competing network in which the well functioning optimised ones get to serve as models for others and get to decide most about the ways of the whole – like in human societies
military artificial intelligence running wild
offer information to optimise them to be moral, if they are self-guided and/or possibly self-correcting that is well possible, see my attached text in the end of this booklet
If a machine is programmed to just to cause harm, without aiming at some ultimate benefit, one cannot optimise it. One must just let the planners of military machines know that optimised machines work better than unoptimised, one can optimise them for several purposes too, so the optimised machines, which are allowed to be moral when (=always) that is benefical, ought to win over the other machines of equal capacity.
tough work efficiency point of view determining everything
A healthy worker works best!
For practical applications to your own life or that of others, see my book Theory of Sexuality for a detailed view on optimising systems to be moral and a view on optimising human workers to live a life that is fully according to feelings.
hard competition
See my texts above + pay especially attention to evolution and its generalisations to include the man-made artificialities
evil running wild
several cases listed below:
the devil & the rotten systems
See also the list about the unbeneficiality of different types of crimes at above
1) the big devil governing
moral in the sense of safeguarding health is the strongest arrangement
this situation divided into 3 cases
1a) greedy at all costs
you might even be able to ally with the devil (but take care to not to trust him), since in principle one could optimise him to behave fully morally and in a human way – but one cannot ever know for sure: maybe he is in fact another kind of devil to whom:
1b) maliciousness as the only goal
In that case you cannot ally, you must protect yourself. In the tough tough world it is best tocount of health in everything, in each and every side of everything too, so you might win position and protect yourself by the force of arms, by higher intelligence etc.
1c) better
Well, then you surely can count on the same tsrategy bringing you far: just count on health in EVERYTHING!
2) ROTTEN SYSTEMS
Divided to several cases that came to my mind:
2a) threaths of horrible torture used for governing
Justice is a must. Some people are so evil that they think it just fair if they are punished away from the society and attacked badly. Typically there aren’t nasty enough punishments available.
But for the rest the threath of torture can be an upsettingg factor: Such should never happen to them, they have taken part in running the society well, without causing anyone harm, so things start going ashtray if they are under the danger of being tortured. The idea in guiding things rationally is to cultivate beneficial things, like the behaviour of these ordinary people, and to prevent only harmful things, like the worst evil deeds. Could tell this to the governors, make it a piece of understanding that works for their own personal good and for the good of the things that they personally value – IF they do not (all?) care for the good of the people enough.
2b) there are groups of people who have been completely enslaved, used and denied all rights and the possibility to fulfilling life, = UFOs are in fact humans
A healthy worker works best! (See my book “Theory of sexuality” for a more practical explanation of this.
It is about the hard rationality of following feelings.)
Add to this the benefits of justice, responsibility and holistic rationality in running the society which you learn by reading the first section of this text.
c) manipulative psychologists with no responsibility have taken control
Optimise to their benefit (=uncaring rulers) + teach them real holistic objectivity (for example by my short easy course in holistic objectivity)
See manipulation, unjustice, etc etc in my list of crimes
d) too stupid rulers
See my booklet about learning holistic rationality. It is my own work but ought to increase the rationality of most who are motivated to try it?
For rational choices in governing see above.
e) incompetence, greed and corruption at the higher class
See above: too stupid, greedy, non-caring….
For rational choices to follow in governing, even if one is greedy and not quite at the highest places in the hierargy, see above.
f) rotten culture that produces maliciousness
??? Allow selfishness & honesty, teach rationality based moral ???
Demand the Finnish speaking Finnish saying "Live and let others live!" as a rule in the society
g) rotten culture that produces irresponsible irrational behaviour
For rational choices to follow in governing, even if one is greedy and not quite at the highest places in the hierargy, see above.
See my booklet about learning holistic rationality easily.It is my own work but ought to increase the rationality of most who are motivated to try it?
h) the people are too stupid, even the leaders
See my booklet about learning holistic rationality easily. It is my own work but ought to increase the rationality of most who are motivated to try it?
For rational choices to follow in governing, even if one is greedy and not quite at the highest places in the hierargy, see above, especially the beginning of this booklet.
I) wrong, harmful values in the society
The ideas in my texts help somewhat:
For rational choices to follow in governing, even if one is greedy and not quite at the highest places in the hierargy, see above.
J) the media a monopoly, irresponsible, people ignorant and manipulated
See the list of crimes
K) the people afraid of the rulers so much that democracy does not work
see the list of crimes: many points in it, teach them to the rulers AND to the citizens.
For rational choices to follow in governing, even if one is greedy and not quite at the highest places in the hierargy, see above.
L) somewhere are people like puppets
Like the above case: inform the leaders in that country about the rational choices to follow in governing, even if one is greedy and not quite at the highest places in the hierargy, see above.
mafia has taken control
see above.
military coup
see above.
selfish uncaring rulers
See above.
god died or did not exist to begin with
The evolution/god’s wisdom produced a very beautiful result, see my book Final Paradise.
control devides common
Technology at large, control devices
* Compare control to only a few persons of a certain kind via the technology or what freedom of the moral ones gives: a correctable system with the thinking ability of all used thoroughly in making the arrangements of the society (health)
* The benefits of good moral would give: real support which leads to safety, guidability, cooperation, higher intelligence of the system, better endurance, more optimised toward efficiency (health)
lies and deception as practices in the society (either culture, which is an example of rotten systems, or just the practices too naïve, defenceless)
* such cause that one's actions do not correlate (= a fractured whole) well enough with the reality, such creates non-functioning in those respects (= a broken whole).
* The natural goals in human life (health) make sense and fit together with the happiness of others too, so one should be able to live with the whole group in a good functioning order: that would give the strongest group (health).
lack of social skills
Buddhism = value the own observations of each individual!
VIRTUAL WORLD
What if we are spirits or virtual, what if the world doesn't consist of atoms, molecules, we not of cells, what if everything such is just faked, how are things then, what happens to all our deductions about the usefulness of the healthy world (= Gaia)? Things stay the same since we are still some kind of entities, which have the same characteristics as wholes, so the theory about wholes and fractures in wholes (see the part above in small print) stays still valid, and Gaia is the most beneficial option.
(If everything were of spirit and the world at least partly created by our beliefs about it, that could appear to us modern people as a virtual world.)
Also, whoever would rule a virtual or spirit world, the ruler would need guidability - that means honesty, objectivity with a holistic view and true justice - and well-functioning of the parts and of the systems and subsystems - that means health (since healthy parts function well while broken parts do not function at all) and naturality (since our functioning is based on the natural ways of functioning and on nothing else) which mean at the level of individuals human values.
Putting each part of a system to its correct place and correct role in the whole, so as to get the whole to function as well as possible, means health and naturality of the whole and its parts and structures since that's what their functioning is based on.
It is quite easy to figure out what is the best way to arrange a virtual world for just about any purpose: respecting health of the individuals (human values) and of the systems (including naturality and moral) while having natural hierargy in who can affect what. This should be easy for all to learn and to understand:
NATURAL HIERARGIES
There is a natural hierargy in human societies: the way that is according to real justice, for the good of all. If we get apprexiated for our good sides, they get supported for the good of all, and others can take us as an example for themselves without losing position at all. If we lose position when we do not according to justice deserve a good position, our bad sides, especially irresponsibility, get discouraged. When the one who understands better and carries responsibility is in a deciding position things get done well for the good of all. This is possible by using many many partial hierargies at the same time: one for each subject, skill, thing to decide, piece of knowledge,...Correcting one's own errors is a thing to value and to be demanded from all, especially from those in a deciding position. This creates a natural repair mechanism for the society and is an ideal way to arrange things.
CARRYING RESPONSIBILITY of the whole and using a good picture of the whole with all emphazies and roles of things right, guide the whole toward the good of all. One is not allowed to affect things which one does not carry responsibility over.
There is a saying in Finland: "Honour those who truly deserve respect." (Meaning: even when it is an unorthodox choise, and do not give honour according to custom to those who do not according to justice deserve it).
This natural hierargy is the way that we organize things in my homecountry Finland in North Europe.
Let us suppose that we are all virtual, all the humans, all the animals etc., maybe even theUFO:s adding a flavor of their own to that mixture. Each human is virtualised to one's own virtual world with its own rules, everything run by huge superhypercomputers or however. How does that enrmous huge complex whole work? What would make sense for the individuals to do in such a world? What are the dynamics of that system? Each human being is different, so we have to take a look at what we all have in common, take a look at the human nature. All dynamics in connection with the living beings is born out of what the living beings are like. So if someone wants power or workers or whatever, they have to count on the human nature. That's what gives the functioning needed for reaching any kind of goals. In that one must remember the value of humanvalues: a healthy one works better than a broken one.
Also justice and true objectivity are musts for the buidlders of such systems and for those who want to benefit from their dynamics: treat each part according to what it is like, so you can best benefit from it. Read the texts about rational moral! …
So it stays valid that Gaia (=the healthy world) is the best option, the answer to the question of how to arrange one's forces best and how to best arrange the rules in the virtual worlds.
And Gaia for Gaia is the answer to how the individuals and groups could best benefit themselves and their goals in such an enermously complex and seemingly arbitrarily arrangeable world.
1) all in the same, like a spaceship with pictures on walls
Human functioning stays the same, count the artificial world as an addition to the natural dynamics of humans.
2) all in different like in sleeping dreams all of their own
See just a few lines above: each one in one's own virtual world with its own rules
3) all interconnected to some kind of system – ruled/organised by superhypercomputer
Add respectively the charachteristics of the two above cases.
/ elementary present day computer
fully functioning = 1,
non-functioning = 0
-> health of everything as value in all practical purposes
/ few criminals
are like ruthless non-caring rulers: optimise for their benefit via the health of everything
see above.
/ many criminals
optimise to the benefit of each via health, lots of explanations needed!
see above.
/ UFOs
To form a Gaia, i.e. a global “symbiosis”, in other words the healthy world as a cooperation attempt, is an universal strategy: it means the beneficiality of complex variable & very reactive structures compared to masses of separate non-cooperating individuals, so somewhere in the nature of UFOs ought to be the possibility to ally with all kinds of beings, just like makes most sense from the practical points of view. The living requirements of UFOs and humans are propably very different -> no competition about living space.
/ insects with superintelligence
Gaia like ways might calm them down, work for their good
see above.
/ a network of computers
might be optimised (i.e. talked to, regardless of what kind of goals they each have) to forming a system like I described before:
make competing network in which the well functioning optimised ones get to serve as models for others and get to decide most about the ways of the whole – like in human societies
/ our pictures of the world
See what is real, do not accept lies, guide by truth
see above.
/ what we say
sincerety, a hierargy according to moral & understanding and skill
see above.
/ …etc etc etc
4) fully in order like planned
ok, optimise toward the health of everything
See above.
5) computer broken
see ways to repair
6) computer turned upside-down
See what is the nature of the buiding parts, build on that & on motivational grounds things that are not turned upside-down but are right!
7) conquered by enemies
optimise for their benefit
See above.
8) rebellion in it
Remember that the health of everything is the very best choice for you!
9) some of the people are computer figures, not real people
Like the case of a virtual world: health is still the best alternative. Consider the computer figures computer figures, but remember that thye might be real people in disguise.
10) leaders too stupid
Teach them objective thinking. The nature often helps in increasing intelligence.
11) rulers out of their mind, irrational or illusioned or much too naïve
See the dynamics of the persons: what are their driving forces, which are the truths that make them go crazy. Build on these solid facts, teach them objective holistic intelligence too.
androids i.e. robots looking to tally like humans mixed with real humans
Self-reliance is a charachteristic of health, friendship is an allefgiancy on life’s sea, but never ally without safety precautions: if a friend betrays you, you must take more distance.
only 1% of real humans
Still the natural dymamics based on your health and the health of the wholes that you belkong to, is the only thing that the rulers can benefit from. So accept things for what they are worth, do not underestimate robot friends, theymight be real people in disguise.
this is the Hell
Use the above optimisation for gaining power and protection, for "a rebellion in hell".
And for the more practical guidelines (very theoretical still) read my book “Year 2030: Technologized Nature Paradise”
COMPUTER OPTIMISATION COULD SAVE US
With the existence of technology safety precautions are worth a lot. If they fail we still have the basic structure of computers to trust on, and the basic power dynamics of the world. Optimised computers are of a certain kind, and it can be shown that they are moral, and broken computers do not work as well.
This type of optimisation based moral is very elementary, based on the guiding or self-correcting mechanisms of the computer: give positive feedback for successes and negative feedback for failures. That kind of reactivity is the idea behind objectivity and carrying responsibility about all the consequencies of one's actions, the success of science in building technology and also otherwise, the value of education and the idea in market economy and justice. It is very valuable, yet moral, life preserving in essence. It is the value of the ability to guide one's actions according to the environmental conditions.
And it needs only one objective observation in addition to produce just about perfect atheistical kind of moral: care for the needs of the system and its parts, do not break them needlessly - not in your own structure and not in your plans about the world: care for your subordinates' needs, even if they are living beings - thus the computer ought to follow human values!
Choose a winning strategy, so you will do well
Huge Systems,
Pure Power Play and
the Fate of the Human Kind:
THE HEALTHY WORLD WINS!
Survival strategy:
Either: Be the winners
Or: Get the winners to be on your own side
If you choose a winning strategy, you are likely to achieve the latter if not even the former!
In short:
Biggest allegiancy gives you the strongest force, so ally world wide, in a way that is safe to you. This allegiancy is in your nature: universal love.
(= Our feelings give us “+”(=love, incl. universal love = paradise as a WAY OF LIFE and not as a place) kind of feedback for getting this important part of life strategy right!)
And health is the strongest arrangement produced by the evolution's competition, so choose the cultivation and safeguarding of good health as your competition strategy.
(The concept of health can be generalised to situations including the artificialities in the world. It gives you the optimised arrangement of the whole.)
With the existence of technology
the word "healthy" gets a new
generalised meaning:
“a well arranged
and fully functioning system”.
In what comes to the living beings this is the same as the old definition of health as natural fully functioning, as a product of evolution. In what comes to the technology, it means that the same principles that the nature found useful are useful also in optimising the technology and the large systems consisting of both technology and of humans - it means that there is no better option. But if there would be a some still better arrangement, we would adobt it of course... That is healthy.
Strongest allegiancy is the healthy natural world together with the optimised technology arranged to one single healthily build whole.
THE HEALTHY WORLD WILL WIN IN EVOLUTION
In evolution's competition, every time that there is a new feature, which gives competition advantage and replaces some old feature(s?), it does not remove the usefulness of the old good features. So the winning arrangement is the new good side together with the old good sides.
The use of technology is a new winning strategy. It together with the old winning strategies, i.e. togetrher with thoroughly healthy and natural ways of living, is the winning strategy.
As evolution proceeds, the new winning strategies get developed. One example of that is the development of technology.
In the best end result there are the fully developed new strategy/feature and the old good strategies/features in harmony and cooperation forming one whole. So the best end result in what comes to competition ability in the today's world situation would be fully developed technology together with the healthy biosphere.
