Hi Pete,
I can see that from your experience of this change, 'To Be Known'
that you are homing in on what is really going on.
All that any of us and I mean any and all have is the ability to see
an effect as we decide to see it regardless of the intentions of the
creator of the effect. There is no other truth higher than that.
Paul, keep on TROMming

Hi Jesus
Thanks for your reply. You are right that I am making these
changes because of my cognition that everything I do, all the
junior goals I pursue are only being done so I can be known by
others or to know what I have created. The most important of these
two is to be known by others.
Dennis makes this point also where he says that we will keep
running the junior goals until we realize they are just efforts to
be known at which point the charge will move to the basic goals
package.
By changing the name of the basic goals package to "to be known" I
am nudging the student toward an earlier recognition of this
realization. TROM becomes very easy to understand once you realize
that everything you do is an effort to "be known".
However I am up against the bank. People are emotionally invested
in believing their game is what is important and has nothing to do
with being known.
As Paul pointed out recently "you can lead a horse to water but you
cannot make him drink"
There have been some complaints in the past that TROM is to hard to
understand as written but if the real problem is hat students are
not willing to change their minds until they expend a great deal of
effort studying the material then my changes to the manual will not
improve the situation.
I am bringing up these points for discussion to test this theory.
So far it looks like I should make no changes as change upsets
people who won't change their minds till their good and ready to do
so anyway.
Sincerely
Pete
