Joyful living - The Digital Key
We live in digital age. Though our ears & eyes are
analogue in perception, all processed sound and visuals from all kinds of
gadgets, had undergone digital processing. What we see and hear from these
gadgets are the digitally processed analogue outputs.
The
nature of our individual vibrations is also influenced by the nature of the
society we are living in. Hence to understand and retune our mind for consonant
interactions, we need to sensitize all kinds of processes in the society and
use our understanding as the key to retune our mind. In the digital age,
understanding the digital key will help us to retune our mind to a joyful life.
During the previous analogue age, value based growth
dominated the society. Those who became rich by pursuing value free process
were frowned upon.
In this digital age, value compromise process successfully
camouflaged with pseudo values , had become the successful manthra for growth (wealth, power, & influence) at individual level, company level, nation
level & global level. Obviously the corridors of power and influence are
dominated by experts of the process. Hence they are respected and even feared.
Till the analogue age, the strength of the social values
helped the individuals with the freedom, to experience positive and negative
swings in the life process of their option. Creativity and originality in all
field including science and arts blossomed resulting in wonderful outputs and
products.
The digital age witnesses power & influence thirsty
human robots destroying nature and threatening the very survival of human
society. Remix and imitation are packed as attractive marketable products. All
activities in science and arts had become market driven. All individuals are
tempted to join in a rat race for wealth, power and influence.
The harmful dimension of the rat race and our survival
skill with respect to the human rats’ network was briefed in a previous post.
How are we to preserve our freedom to be friendly with
nature to lead a truly joyful life?
Obviously we need to retune our mind to have the right
vibrations at our level to experience consonance, and , if blessed,
experience the divine resonance.
How do
we acquire the digital key that will help us to retune our mind to a joyful
life?
To
understand the digital key, we need to have a basic understanding of the
digital processing.
In
the following figure, we find a wave (analogue signal) sliced into 2 steps, 4 steps & 8 steps
becoming a digital signal. In the reverse process, the steps are joined to give
stepped output as the analogue signal. In actual case, the steps are smoothed out
to become a curve so that the output resembled the original input in shape.
The above example involved 1 bit ( 21 = 2), 2 bit ( 22 = 4) & 3 bit ( 23 =
8) digital processes to serve as a
simple example. In digital gadgets it may be 24 bit or more. Obviously with
more bits, the step width will decrease so that the final output resembled more
to the input shape and smoothed out well.
The output is the result of joining of the micro level digital
steps to get macro level final output.
We need to adopt the above digital process to each of our interaction
with the individual human beings. Note that the analogue wave had positive and negative swing. But
in the digital process, it started from zero (000) and increased in positive
steps to convert it into digital signal.There is no negative but only zero and stepped positives in the
digital process.
In digital age, we need to re tune our mind so that we do not
permit negative feelings like anger or hatred. In case it makes an entry, we
need to zero it - like the electric charges becoming zero when earthed. The
previous posts including the one on ‘The Skill of the Secret of Dying for Joyful Living’
briefed the techniques to ‘earth’ the negative feelings.
Zero means a kind of dead level. We need to die to the negative feelings
so that we start from zero level while interacting with others. Depending upon
the positive dimension of the other person, we apply our positive level to deal
with that person at the micro level.
The net resultant of all the interactions we had with several individuals
at different positive magnitudes, will
result in our state of mind at the macro level.
We shall not forget that, like nature, our life is analogue. But we can
acquire the skill of digital process to have a micro level digital positive
interaction. The skill included the joining of the micro level processes to
bring out the final output at macro level – positive & analogue in nature.Unless we become the shelter of the positive feelings, we can not acquire
the above digital skill for joyful living.
