Hi Trommers,
I am reading the manual again ( 😊 again) and on every sentence I let the whole
thing sink in.
When doing this I came to a possible error and I would like to raise this point
in the manual that, I think, is a (quite serious) mistake.
It is about a passage in the Chapter ‘Theory’:
“
The four basic actions of life each have a twin postulate structure:
1.The postulate bringing the effect into existence, and the postulate that it
shall be known.
2.The postulate taking the effect out of existence, and the postulate that it
shall be made not-known.
3.The postulate to know the effect and the postulate that it shall be made
known.
4.The postulate to not-know the effect and the postulate that it shall be made
not-known.
“
The 2nd statement at the end states ‘that it shall be made not-known’. It is of
my understanding that the word ‘made’ should be removed.
Bringing something into existence equals the postulate ‘shall be made known’ or
‘make known’.
Taking something out of existence equals the postulate ‘shall be made not
known’ or ‘make not known’.
We can thus abbreviate the above four points:
1. Make known - Know
2. Make not known - Not know
3. Know - Make known (1. from Other)
4. Not know - Make not known (2. from Other)
And that is correct according to the next bullet list in the manual:
“
SELFOTHERS
1. Make known.
2. Make not-known
3. Know.
4. Not-know.Know.
Not-know.
Make known.
Make not-known.
“
Can anyone confirm this?
Thank you.
