Screamjack's Theory Of "Distinctive Perception"

Screamjack’s Theory Of “Distinctive Perception”

Has it ever begun to strike our minds of the ignorant limited and stubborn world we live in?
Why is it when we look around all we see is a world governed by limiting rules, rules carved with the chisels of minds unknown to us?
Why is it that this world always finds a hindrance in the critic? And why is it contradiction always succeeds in hammering us before the finish line?
It is clear that all man wishes to seek is his purpose here, and in the process explore this world of infinite possibility!
It is clear instead of finding the pros in contradictive ideas man always wishes to prove himself, right instead!
The human mind is a machine of immense power, with capabilities beyond the imagination of anyone.
We perceive things to be the way we understand them to be, but necessary it never has been that a neighbor should understand it the same way.
The working of the human mind varies from specimen to specimen.
I believe that I sit on a chair, because that’s what I was told when I was young. I was made to understand, that such an object served as a comfortable means to sit down, and today, if ever I am in the need to sit, I look for a chair, because that’s how my mind has been tuned.
If instead I was taught the chair is a means of self-defense, I would look for a chair each time I found myself in trouble!
But to the human society, knives and guns serve as better means of self defense, so that is what we are thought, and that is how we perceive these objects to be.
How am I to know if the red I’m seeing appears green to another?
This is where the world has been struck hard by a massive hindering wall!
Since we are limited to the perspective of our eyes alone, we fail to understand what others see, and understand what others believe. Instead, to feel secure, we stand up for our ideas, and try proving them right! And there in comes contradiction, which causes the distance between people and feelings of separation and there in the cause to quarrel.
People are stubborn, and that fact is clear cut! We need to open ourselves up, and learn that we are to accept even the thoughts and ideas of everyone around in order to co-exist peacefully.
Each person’s mind has a unique method of perception. We use graphs in order to understand scientific and mathematical theories. This is because these statistical representations offer shorter and easier means to understand what we wish to learn!
A bar chart might help in the case of an individual, and a pie chart in the case of another, as the methods of perception of these minds vary.

Religion and Spirituality

Religion! What the hell is religion?
Why these idols? Why all these prayers, rituals and meaningless celebrations?
And if there exists such variation in religion how am I to know which one is right?
The truth is, whether we desire it or not, there does exist a power up there which governs us all, a power which is the reason of our existence, a certain energy,(as we can perceive it to be) that is always watchful of the proceedings of everything around us.
But such an understanding is much beyond the human mind, and still remains a mystery.
To make things easier, we draw charts, and graphs, and in this case, we refer to idols, prayers and rituals! Whatever the power that exists above is deserving of our attention and respect, and to be respectful of this power, we do it in methods and forms that are understandable to us! There comes the concept of religion!
This is why we constantly here the phrase, “There is only one God, and all religions are pointing only to this one God!” And true it is indeed. People of the world come from different cultures, and various backgrounds and their minds perceive this eternal power in infinite ways.
But our world is stubborn, and every individual wishes all around him to look the way he does, eat the way he does, believe the way he does and live the way he does! This leads to communal conflicts, which further leads to bloodshed, and then tragically the loss of lives due to such a despicable yet childish misunderstanding!
Are we this childish to let such contradictions hinder a peaceful co-existence?
Are we humans, the peak of evolution and the ultimate in intelligence so witless and dull to let such mere misunderstandings come in the way of happiness and peace?
If we are, I reject Science! I reject the solidest of theories laid down by men of great prestige! I reject the government of the day! Cause never will I surrender to a society that pretends to be wise!
Many people I know reject religion and uphold spiritualism, if I think twice, I find no difference! Spiritualism is just another method of considering the power that governs us! Its methods vary drastically with those of religion, but the destination is, always has been and always will be the same!
Are the spiritualists out there going to criticize me and tell me that the religious fanatics out there just fear a non-existent power, and they are foolish?
What is the objective of spiritualism? It is to attain spiritual enlightenment and understanding of what is beyond this life and the origin and purpose of breath!
What’s the objective of religion? It is to attain a complete understanding of God, and of what lays waiting for us beyond this life! Isn’t God the origin of man? Don’t the books like The Bible, The Quran and The Vedas teach us of the purpose of life and means to attain peace and happiness with oneself?
We live in a world of infinite contradictions, but these are just hindrances in the journey.
Our destination is the same, but we tread paths that are radically different! To live in peace, what we need is to broaden our powerful yet weak minds and humble ourselves to understand and respect what others around see and believe!

This is my perception of the world in which I live in.
It might occur dull and obtuse to you but that is how your stubborn mind perceives it to be.
What we see is reality to us, but it might be completely different to someone else. Just learn to open up and give a little space, the world would be a way better place.
