Hi Cory and Jesus Excellent!
This is a very important question. What does "to be known" mean? First of all the words we use are not the postulate. They are only a poor description of the postulate. Secondly the various wordings that Dennis uses to describe the first leg of the basic goals package are all correct depending on what effect you are trying to create. So, to be known, to create something, to create an importance, to bring things into existence, make known etc. are all describing the same postulate. Dennis states that all the junior goals packages are really just ways of making known, making not known, knowing or not knowing. This means that the basic goals package must include any causative postulate that has ever been made at any time ever. So I am right that "to be known" means that I want others to know that I exist and Cory is right that "to be known" means to bring something into existence and have others duplicate that it exists. I assign more importance to my definition because the me to be known is the emotionally charged reason to create something. I need, as in crave, as in addicted to the sensation of having others acknowledge me, respect me, admire me, love me. Making stuff like cake or tomatoes or mud bricks just to look at them is boring. Why bother do make stuff? So obviously my definition is motivated by my case. I have a button on respect. The question you need to ask yourself is what definition of "to be known" is hot in your case as this is where you will get action at level 5. This is also the definition that will be most real to you as you study TROM. Does that help? Sincerely Pete Ps. Always pick a junior universe on the basis of your interest in it.
