Data Or Distraction?
Data? Info.? Data? It surrounds us. It is us. It’s already occurred. The idea of privacy? Should be carefully examined. It is in our best interest, as of right now Jan.12, 2024, to discover more about the in-flow and out-flow processing of DATA! Information is good, right? Efficiency, improvements, comfort, and so many more reasons to indulge in the obtainment of more information. It’s a good thing, right?!
Well? Yes, and no. Here is my personal rationale for information and data consumption as being not right or wrong; bad or good, but rather? Interacting with us in a way that can potentially interfere with the discovery of one’s self—the real gift! Human beings are naturally stimulated by their external experience of the world. In fact? The more stimulation? The more a person is likely to want to stick around. So? In the case of “throwing a party,” for instance? There’s good reason to include a wealth of stimulating experiences. Then again? There’s always that somebody who doesn’t want to leave, right? For instance, the lowly drinker in denial, or, the gambling persona at the casino…typically, a person will use information to their advantage and their survivability in order to maximize their experience on this plane of existence.
With that consumption of data and information? A choice is being made. An opportunity-cost?A sacrifice of whatever it may be and on whatever level of significance. One is liable to make a litany of different and perhaps difficult sacrifices to retain a sense of order and enjoyment. Life is generally regarded as a, “one-stop shop.” One chance? One opportunity? This is all a person gets. No do-overs. It is interesting enough to fantasize of time-travel and of making it work in accordance with hindsight’s 20-20 vision, but that is currently, and to the best of my knowledge, not possible. But why is data and information a threat to a person’s wellbeing? Simply stated: there is a lot of unleverageable data and information out there. Useless materials, right? There aren’t many people who have awoken to the degree that consciousness and clarity are such a vital form of foundation to thrive with. These entities are given to us since birth. And because they are a birthright? Their importance is generally ignored. Much more valuable is it perceived by the masses, to consume data and information and not have to think of the creator-capacity that they were born with. “Creative? I’m not creative.” Has anyone ever uttered that expression, or something thereof, before in your midst? Great. Well? That’s when you dimply restate the word of which you intended to use: “Creator.” We were all born with a creator-capacity. Each of us has the natural ability to give and receive—why not infer that also as being a way that exists on an internal level as well? Only—with thought! Thoughts tend to be understood as “given” to us, and, whether we’d like to believe that or not? In my opinion, there is also the ability to create, or give a thought. For instance? The thought of imagining a radiant light-beam of energy representing love and peace that is spewing outward in intensity and direct interaction with making contact on a particular location on the planet. Or? Was that a thought I was given? Interesting.
Regardless? The reason for all of the data and information is certainly to educate, however, it is also available to distract us away from getting to know oneself on a deeper level. Interactions tend to become carnally-driven, impulse-related and reactionary based on world-views, etc.. The important thing to keep in mind, however, is that data serves itself to an individual at all times through perception alone.
Some experts within the field of metaphysics might argue that the mechanisms for interpreting data, however, aren’t interpreting the external world that is perceived at all, but merely creating it. This experience is temporary, and likewise? This collection and outputting of data and perceptive information is as well. So? Point being? Begin to recognize distractions. Begin to recognize and become aware of how our focus, concentration: our attention? Is being manipulated, and to add: perversely exhausted.
NOTE: I am not implying that the best solution is to run away and go-off someplace else, but rather, that the individual consider taking on an identity of re-enforced “self” by turning within—meditating—watching the thoughts go by—and asking themselves internally (non-judgmentally speaking): why am I thinking this particular thought—recognizing the internal motivations that are sabotaging their ability to manifest and create. In closing? Distractions are endless, so thank you for your time and considerations. Go within a place of meditation for amplified self-discovery, and learn to identify who you truly are, versus? Whatever is claiming your attention and causing the reactions that you are having. Blessings and good light!
