Relax. You don’t have to know everything. There’s really no such thing as a know-it-all. You also don’t have to be always right, or think that anyone else is. Relax. Everybody is wrong all the time. Take a long soothing relaxing breath. We’re going to lift the oppressive, crushing, strangling, suffocating, burden of fundamentalism from humankind’s shoulders.
To be sure:
There Is Something Really Interesting Going On…
But, truthfully, you don’t know what hardly any of it is.
And neither does anyone else!
Not even extremely wise me, nor the wisest entities on Alkozira – and they have some wise entities.
Isn’t that great? Life is a mystery. You don’t have all the answers. You don’t have to fear and despise anyone because they have different ideas than you. You and they mostly know nothin’!
This is what the wisest creatures in the universe know:
No one is always right. Mostly they are wrong. The more sure someone is that they are right, and the more vehemently they insist, the more likely they are to be wrong. You can count on it. There is no correlation between how sure a person is and how right they are. All those angry strident know-it-alls, they’re wrong! What a relief. I would say they should be pitied, but it’s hard to pity people who mostly make trouble for other people.
Yes, we have inklings of some profound simple truths. Through the ages, thoughtful imaginative humans have grasped these truths and tried to make them understandable through stories, parables, and poetic musings. Other humans love those stories and often turn them into an official religion. The trouble starts when we come to believe the stories, or the “details” (doctrine), are the religion. Two people may each believe in a single god of love, but if their details about that god are different in slight ways that would seem inconsequential to an outsider, they may feel obliged, even eager, to bully, persecute, torture, and kill one another.
So, you’ve probably guessed it. That’s the second part. “There is something really interesting going on…and nobody knows what it is!”
Freedom to Have an Open Mind
We are free to enjoy one another. We are meant to love one another, and to love all the variety and endless permutations. We are meant to enjoy the mystery and the search for knowledge.
We are meant to use our amazing brains for thinking. That means to set aside blind ideology and fundamentalism, to maintain an open mind, to focus on the common goal of improving each other’s lot, and to do that with reason, logic, and open minded experimentation.
On planet QW1212-24, peace, harmony, prosperity, and enlightenment, began with the philosophy of tisrigo. Tisrigo is about learning to think with an unbiased mind, to solve problems without ideology, to learn and make improvements based on experimentation and open-minded non-biased evaluation of the results. That is the only way things get better.
It can work on earth too. We can teach ourselves to think clearer and better. We can teach our selves to think without bias. On these pages we will explore how to think, explore and share the wisdom of tisrigo, and fight, fight, fight, against all forms of fundamentalism and its debilitating horrid result – gullimentalism.
