This email brings up 2 issues, intentionally both in this one email.

But let's start by observing a fact. The Beginners Guide 
(http://tromhelp.com/services) lists 4 aspects to life:

1) bring something into existence
2) take something out of existence
3) know
4) not-know

Notice, that there are 4 aspects and they are considered distinct and 
non-equivalent.

Now, for the first point. Page 6 of the Guide says """Be Known – is used 
to mean bring into existence, create."""   ... but of course we now have 
a conflict. The introduction did not equate knowing (3) with bringing 
into existence (1) but page 6 is. This is confusing.

Next, on pp.5-6 the two conflicts are defined in terms of the Conditions 
of Existence - being, doing, and having.

Conflict 1 is when the Being is seeking a particular condition but 
encounters a counter-force.
Conflict 2 is when the Being is seeking to not be in a condition but 
encounters a coercive force.


The guide then states:

"""1.Must Be Known       opposed to     4. Must Not Know
2.Must not Be Known     opposed to    3.  Must Know"""

which is saying that the Conditions of Existence are equivalent the 
Knowing, which is hard to swallow.

Concluding:
in the space of 2 pages (5 and 6), we now have KNOWING defined as two 
different things:
1 - bringing things in to existence
2 - any of the the Conditions of Existence
