Welcome all with a questioning mind and a yearning for a better world.
Our mission, as it stands, is to help humans cultivate mental health. Mental health is poorly understood in modern society, which is why we have so many mental health problems. This work is a “Handbook for mental health”, and takes you on a journey of perspective development.
You will learn about the nature of the “Self”, from a systems perspective. In doing so you will learn that life is a processing system, and the evolution of life is the evolution of processing systems – toward greater ability to receive, process, and react.
You will learn why being a philosopher is a survival strategy in this modern world, how we have a crisis of quality (a lack of a common idea of what is “good”), and because mental “health” is about quality, this is something that needs to be addressed.
We will show you that the way forward is through a unity of science and philosophy, a unity of quantity and quality; and we will continue our systems perspective to view the whole unfolding of this universe, from beginning to now, as an evolution of systems. From this perspective we are able to see a common thread that crosses every strata, or layer, of the unfolding of this universal existence (from quantum layer, the atomic, elemental/compound, and physical layer). We can take this common thread to systems at every layer of the unfolding of the universe, which is best expressed as order, or law, and apply that to our human systems, giving us a universal measure of quality (or, in other words, an objective morality).
Mental health is something that results from the development of Self sovereignty – which, in general terms, is the alignment of the Self to the underlying order of the universe. Practically speaking, this involves managing the quality and quantity of our consumption and creation, where “quality” is defined through the order inherent to the universe we inhabit. The underlying idea here is that mental health is about producing good reactions in reality, and so to best do this we need a Self that is programmed to make good decisions in reality (and the best way to do this is program, in other words align, your Self, with reality – and embracing the objective morality, allowing the universal Good to be your guide, is the most expedient way of walking this path).
Our Self is a product of experience. So it is not enough to just hear the words, or look at the right books, watch the right videos, it requires full Self alignment – setting purpose, developing strength to focus mind, and forging the tools for reflecting on your reactions (assessing, and making plans for changing repulsive traits).
The overall goal of this group is a society built upon Self sovereignty – where society is structured around information and experiences needed for the developing Self sovereignty, where Self sovereignty is taught as fundamental as literacy and numeracy, and where social/political decisions are assessed against the universal measure of quality (as we assess our own reactions, the contents of our mind and behavior). The foundation for this reality is an understanding of the way and the will to achieve Self sovereignty, which is why we have produced a guide, a “Handbook for mental health”. This guide is presented as an 11 “chapter” “book”, released in video form hosted on Youtube. You can find a list of the chapters with links to each of them on this page of our site.
We are looking for like minded humans to grow this into a movement for social change. We do not ask for blind faith, for order followers, we ask for free thinking humans that have run the information against their own past experiences and find that it sits well. We encourage questions, comments, and alternative perspectives, all perspective will be considered, weighed and measured (as we expect you to do also with new information). There is no formal joining process, if you want help then please just start talking about the perspective, sharing the handbook and helping humans grow. If you want to set up local groups to talk about the ideas, work things out, even push these ideas further, please do – if looking forward please contact (we have some ideas of future paths you may like to hear).
If you want to chat, ask questions, etc, then you can do so through our facebook group linked here.
