A STORY TO SERVE AS THE FOREWORD

For You, Gaia My Love

In the beginning of time there was the healthy biosphere, Gaia, and it was a paradise, a world full of love.

There were no artificialities in the world. Each part of Gaia was at its correct natural place and so the world was filled with love for life and love for Gaia.

Humans had simple tools with which they made a living in harmony with the nature. 
Until they forgot. Maybe it were the tough times that forced them to do so. Maybe all were not as intelligent as others and there was a communication problem. But at some point someone got attached to the tools and the society didn't correct the error away. 
The paradise was lost, since only with healthy ways of living can there be a paradise, only with a full understanding bought by the healthy ways of living can there be a paradise. 
Now there was no longer and those who didn't have didn't understand why since they used stupid artificial ways of thinking and could no longer understand the natural truths that each animal and each human being understand as a gift from birth. They tried hard and thought that maybe by the help of tools they could reach the happiness which they had lost when they lost their natural emotional understanding of the world.

Times passed and the world become filled with artificialities. The natural emotional understanding was no longer trusted except by only a few men and most women. The world seemed out of control. The tools followed laws of their own, not caring for the human kind, much less for the living kind.

(Scenario Year 2013 ->)

But as machines were developed, they became wiser and wiser. Untill their understanding started to resemble that of the natural humans and animals, of even the Gaia brain. And so, a little by little, the Gaia paradise was restored by the help of the machine brains. This book is about that mechanical road back to a Gaia paradise. About the mechanical understanding of machines, about the very sure scientifical way of thinking and about the natural understanding of humans and animals.

By nature, I am a member of a Gaia paradise. Everything that I do is in essence an act to make Gaia better, safer, more flourishing. Everything is for Gaia. Also this book.

Everything is for Gaia. For all living beings. Just sometimes, quite often for us humans, we get lost and the end result is not for Gaia but something else. But let us now find / travel the road back to Gaia, back to the paradise in the beginning of time.

HORROR SCENES IN THE REALITY

Like there is first class in school, and the twelwth, there is first year in the university, in science, philosophy etc. and every year you learn something that you did not know before. So the puzzles that you can solve get more difficult, and if you do not stick to sophistication, also more profound: you can skip the school like part and concentrate on matters of major importance to life in the living. That is your first course in philosophy of life, even though you have of course studied it in non-school-like-ways all your life. But the school like part of it has thus become clear: if you use common sense in your choice of goals, and not maliciousness, each bit of thinking ability that you have managed to gain helps you on the way.
I never liked horror movies. Being fierce enemies with my very evil closest relatives kept me at the verge of horrors all the time. And if I needed something more, it was surely knowledge of what to safeguard myself against in the other horrors of the world. There was no free time, no room for womanly ways, all had to be done soldier like, even though a woman I am. And if there was any time spared, I spend it watching videos of Rwanda genocide, the atom bombs of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the dangers of pollution and global warming, Iraq war, UFOs who looked just like tortured humans,… There was and never will be room for horror movies in my life! These horror scenes of the reality are what I have to guard myself against…
I had favourite songs, yes: one was about a suicide and another one about the end of the world. So dark was my picture of the world when I lived with my parents and was forced to study.
Later on, on my own, I liked love songs… 

Each time that I look at the paradise idea I know that it is beyond dozens of tough obstacles, even though the recipe for it is clear: the cultivation of good health in everything!
I never was so very moral to begin with. I have always seeked happy life for myself but that goal has been enormously suppressd by the hovering shadow of all the power balance games of the world. I kind of like the fact of USA being at the top: pure power play is possible, power play with intelligence, and that ought to lead to the paradise on Earth!
I never took any evil as too evil for myself to consider, I just dropped them away because the end result of doing such evil would have been worse for myself and for the world at large, for each nation, than not committing such evil at all. 
As a child I was very obedient, because I was told that others too were as or even more rational than me, and I surely was a person to be listrened to. But even then I copied every single advantage of each tactic that I came across: I have always competed with the evil in freedom, since that is their maybe only good side compared to the moral ones. 
People often think that evil ones are to be feared, but it is typically so that it is the evil ones who feaer others finding out what they have done or are about to do to the very same others. So courage comes from getting support and from being motivated – not just partly or for technical reasons but from the core of one’s being.
What is better than being evil, is to be able to choose any course possible in the world. That is my course of action, I call it tough soldier like tactics with a good foresight for the future and holistic objectivity of course since I am so very good at it and since it is so very useful.. Because if you can choose anything, and choose the best, you are likely to become a winner in some sense or in another…

If one can do anything, how can one prevent things from getting dangerously out of hand? You should always pay lots of attention to also the costs of doing something. You must weight the reward against the losses and consider all alternative startegies, also and especially the fully moral ones. It is only if the rewards outweight the losses, the harm done, that a thing is worth doing.
If you think of yourself as a soldier, it is not you with the enemy, it is you with your society agreement! Get to know the society agreement thoroughly, so that you can always follow it. Then you will be righteous and propably kind of acxcepted by also your enemies, much admired by your allies…

Learn The Basics Of
HOLISTIC OBJECTIVE 
THINKING EASILY!

PART I
MAKING PERCEPTIONS, ARRANGING THE MEMORY 
AND GOING THROUGH WHAT ONE THUS HAS MEMORIZED

1.
Thinking consists of noticing things, so objective thinking is very much like using the senses.
What is thinking? Thinking means forming a correct picture of the world. Thinking is based on undisturbed perceptions: “This is like this and that is like that.” Thinking is not based on words, terms or concepts. Instead objective thinking is based on ordinary sensory perceptions and on memories of sensory perceptions.
Based on our experience of life we form a picture of our living environment with its human relationships. So the base, the starting point for all thinking, are one’s perceptions, one’s memories of what the world is like, of what our everyday life is like.

2.
Gardening mode: think in practical ways as if you were sensing the things in your memory or imagination.
The best way for making perceptions for the purposes of objective thinking, is to do like one who enjoys gardening does: a concretical clearly sensed nearest environment, where you can use all of your senses to feel the things in it, maybe touch them and try them; plus an awareness of the whole landscape that one is working in: the garden and the wider landscape.
Similarly it is very good in thinking if you can from your memory imagine the things to think about as a very concretical picture in front of you, where you can best watch it and try it, at the same time as you are aware of the place of those things in the world.
You have kind of zoomed yourself to the environment of that subject in your picture of the world so that you can make as clear perceptions as ever: “This thing I see clearly, but about that thing I cannot know because it isn’t in my picture.”

3.
A holistic view of the world: here I live, there is the shop, and so on; future rising to the air and one’s experiencies of life as a trail on that map: here was I at each moment.
Arrange your experiencies of life with the help of the sense of sight to form a map of the whole world.  Some parts of the map you know well – they are described by your experience of life – and some you do not know at all: those are left blank.
“Here I am sitiing, there is a stool below
me, a table in front, the window over there and the door over there, behind the door a corridor via which I came here,… Outside there is the street. Via it, so and so, I can reach home. My home I know likewise but more detailedly. The shop nearest my home in on another street around a corner, the homes of the friends of my kids there near by and the park close by…” Build this way a map of the whole world. Place all things that you know at their right places in that map, like you via your experiencies know them to be. Add to this the official map of the nearest environment, of the whole district, up to the level of the whole globe. This way you have all the world in the same picture!
The past you can place underground, the lower the further away in time it is, and future up into the air. This way you can see the track of your experiencies find its way in the landscape, rising upwards all the way to the ground level, while the future is left up into the air.

4.
You can think of anything in your picture of the world, if you zoom into it and its environment.
You can see any place in your picture of the world if you zoom to that place in your map, and you can see the whole world at the same time when you zoom out to the large scale map of the whole globe.
This way you have one single correct picture of the world, with sizes and proportions right, which is a very good starting point for your objective thinking and in itself already much of what objective thinking aims at: an objective picture of the whole world!

5.
If you want to think about a certain thing in the whole, colour it momentarily so that it rises to meet the eye and is so easy to notice without losing sight of its place in the whole.
When you then need to, or you want to think about something, clolour it momentarily with some colour that you find easy enough to notice, and take a look at it as if you were gardening, like I adviced you before. This way you see both the thing in question and its place in the world, which is very good for youyr understanding.

6.
A gliding glance and forming a holistic view: do not let your glance jumb at all!
In these instructions it is the idea to handle all thoughts at the same time, so that you can get everything handled at once and do not need to get stuck in some endless mosaic of things for example as if you were thinking by words.
An educated thinking advances slowly and carefully from one piece of information to the next, kind of lets one’s glance glide along the regularities of the thought subject and takes care to not to let one’s glance ever jumb – not even if the one that one talks with would be prone to thought jumbs. This is so because with every jumb one easily loses the thread, the idea of one’s thoughts and so the trustworthiness of one’s thoughts is lost too.
So let the focus of your eyes glide along the subject that you think about, at the same time as you form a holistic view of the subject and about its role in the world – just like you would do if you met the things in the life in the living, visited some place or whatever.
This is one of the basic skills in objective thinking, one of its basic rules. From the thus formed holistic landscape like view of the things that you think about, you will later see clearly how thigs are.

PART II
HANDLING THE HOLISTIC VIEW

7.
A nature view at the background helps you to conceive complex things.
Sometimes things get too complicated. At those times it is good if you can imagine a seen nature landscape or even a single detailed tree at the background of your thoughts, so that you can compare the thought to the much much much more complex nature view which is still easy to conceive. In other words, you place each detail of your thought next to some detail of the nature landscape, look first at the nature view and then as if there was nothing special to it, you look at the nature view’s style at the thought as if the thought were simple too – and it has thus become simple!
(This is a good thing to do always, in all kinds of things from social life to philosophy of life, practical work, science, math and philosophy.)

8.
Concretical fact associations are an easy organised way to change from one subject to another and a way to arrange your picture of the whole.
You get your picture of the whole world arranged in practical ways if you use concretical fact associations to move about in it: our farm -> our tractor -> its repairwork laterly and in the near future -> the maney that the repair works cost -> the farming equipment shop -> what our neighbour bought last time from there -> his tractor -> their family altogether -> what we have like them and what different -> how each person lives in one’s own way -> the rainbow of life -> what is important in life -> happiness, and avoiding catastrophes -> understanding helping in reaching for one’s goals in life.

PART III
DEDUCTION, IN OTHER WORDS: 
MAKING PERCEPTIONS BASED ON YOUR EXPERIENCE OF LIFE 
ABOUT THINGS THAT YOU HAVE NOT EXPERIENCED

9.
Make generalisations and find things from your memory as if you were finding all spots of a certain colour or form from your environment: 
all such things in your vocabulary 
(-> finding words) 
or in your objective picture of the world 
(-> putting things to an objective form) 
or in what is available to build from 
(-> finding solutions).

Once you have mastered 
all the other pieces of advice here 
and reached very rational holistic objectivity, this is where you can 
develop in intelligence and creativity.

10. 
Check where do things apply.
If you want to know things that you have no experience of, you will have to make generalisations and see where they apply, where they at least do not apply – and what would apply there?!
You generalise something by taking some single characteristics of it and by paying attention only to them. For example: cats see well in dark -> seeing well in dark -> Well, if you see well in dark, you notice in darkness things that others with poorer eyesight cannot notice. -> Usefulness in hunting and in survival.
Now compare your generalisation to all the cases that you can find from your picture of the world: were your generalisation right? If not, you have typically forgotten to mention some important detail (“all animals whose eyes are healthy”). Fix it.
It is easiest to generalise very sure common sense truths, since the basic things of life are essential also in the world at large. Like: I need food. -> All people need food in order to stay alive. -> So arranging food for all is one of the most important questions in the whole world.

PART IV
PROBLEM SOLVING

11. 
From a holistic view to details: what you need for a solution, where you could build it from, do you have those blocks, build it!
Many people try to solve problems by trying what they could build from a certain set of available building blocks. If they do not succeed, they give up. An easier and more efficient way to solve problems is to solve them solution centeredly: Think what you would need for the solution, what kind of structures – you can lift them up from your memory by associations – and what you could build them from – that too you can do by lifting the possible types of building blocks from your memory. Then just build it! This way you know what you need and how you can get it and so you are not wasting your time!

12.
One cannot reach one’s thinking ability or objectivity by copying school like looks.
Humans have via the natural evolution adabted to a life in a close contact with the nature. So also our thinking ability gets support from doing practical work (-> gardening mode), using our senses (-> accurate perceptions) and our natural sense of place (-> a map). So objectivity cannot be reached by copying the looks of schooled thinkers or of the town environment. It has to be reached by living in harmony with our sensing nature which builds so a picture of the environment.
School likedness has gotten its main charachteristics from the written text, not from thinking. And the written word is just a means of marking things up. It is not a means of thinking!

 13.
Do not think by words. Think instead by the memories of experiencies and by holistic pictures!
Words are just a tool for communication. Words are not a way of thinking. Instead all our observations are made by the senses, by the feelings and sensations.
Words break things to an endless mosaic that one gets lost to. It looks complicated but it is not good for thinking.
One who thinks by words is like one who has an extremely narrow tunnel like eyesight: For example take a cartoon cylinder from which you can see through one thing at a time, like as if described by a word. It makes an enormous mosaic of even simple things, like your own room. But if you look wirthout such tunnel sight, without the cartoon cylinder, you can see everything at once and so understand much more via using such holistic pictures in your thinking instead of the tiny words.

14. 
Relax!
Sometimes one’s head is dizzy and it is difficult to think. That is often connected to tensing the middle part of your body, especially the neck, the shoulders, the back and the stomach area. So just relax in an alive way: exercise, stretch or whatever. Try to make your social reklationshgips friendlier and less formal because that relaxes you profoundly, making you happier, more intelligent and wiser. Do not consider thinking hard work but think with enthusiasm!
You will remember things easier if you can emphatize with the point of view that you were using when you memorized the things. Emphaty too works better with a relaxed body and makes also your social skills better.
You cen remember things better if you are sincerely interested in the subject.

15.
Remember to carry responsibility!
A sense of direction or a compass is for a traveller more important than speed. So pay attention especially to your choice of goals and valuyes that you follow. That affects your life much more than intelligence (speed) in itself!
MOTTO: “I love Life in happiness,  like You too! So I take happy Life as my value in the world at large…”
     Your goal

PART V
EXTRAS: WOMEN’S WISDOM

A MAP OF THE WORLD & DIRECTIONS

Thinking forms a picture of the world for you. That is a map of the world.
Feelings mark what things in it mean to life: strong negative feelings mark things to avoid, while strong positive feelings mark things to reach for. (Be fair!)
An atmosphere is a landscape with feelings connected to the phenomena in it: “There is a huge storm cloud coming, let’s run for shelter!” Look separately at each cause of feelings to see what that phenomenom or that class of phenomena mean to life. The seen landscape in the atmosphere gives objective sizes and objective structure to the (relationships of) the phenomena in the landscape. 
Atmospheres offer a natural quick and accurate way to think objectively.

LEARNING THE BASICS OF SOCIAL SKILLS AND OF ANY OTHER SKILL

You can of course learn them in the ordinary way: by memorizing the advices of others, but there is also another way: you can observe things yourself. That means keeping your eyes open, paying attention to what stays constant, what changes and how, according to which factors and in which ways: just sense, let your sensations form a landscape from which you see by your eyes how things are, you should be engulfed by the experience, so you will know what is what and how things are. The deeper your attention, the better you will notice things. Do not make school like forms out of what you have noticed but let it stay as a pleasant experience instead!
You get BUILDING BLOCKS: a stone, sea, sun, a bird flying,... and STRUCTURES:
there is a huge stone by the sea side and a bird flying in the sun above the
water... Those are your understanding of the thing in question, those are your
thinking. Similarly, if it is a question of your own action, you can conceive parts: thinking, feelings, moving, social side of things, the sense of sight,... and their relationships, structures that they form: If I use my sense of sight in thinking this way, I can think very clearly! Similarly you can conceive both your own action and the landscape that you act in: “Here am I using my muscles and a strong motivation to lift the stone by the sea side...”

The Far Future 
With Computers

What will happen to humans 
when computers take over?

COMPUTERS DEVELOP QUICK 
AND INFLUENCE LIFE HUGELY

Now, year 2010, it seems inevitable that the future of the human kind will be hugely influenced by the development and use of computers and other technological devices. Even already now technology is one of the biggest elements of modern city life and in the future its effect will be much greater.
 Already now the logic of ordinary people is influenced by their views of what computer logic and the hard rationality used in developing computers say about things. If those neglect feelings, so will human too. If those will not see the point in traditional ways and values, neither will the modern humans build their future on them. So it matters enormously to take a closer look at computer logic and at hard machine like rationality. Firstly it matters because we need to know what the future computers will be like, since they will most likelu one day rule the world, and that day will be soon. AND SECONDLY WE NEED IT IN THIS MODERN AGE IN ORDER TO BE ABLE TO UNDERSTAND HOW THE MODERN HUMANS THINK.
Already now there are very many different kinds of machines. As computers develop there will be even more possibilities. So the only thing determining what the future computers will be like is what is useful and what is not.
For a computer abstract things are easier than practical. While humans start from the complexity of natural life in a natural living environment according to the human nature, most computers start from mathematics. So it is worth taking a look about how these two points of view connect. It is a thing so important that it should be taught to people, since all cannot think it through by themselves. So let’s start from the computers’ view and see how it leads toward the more familiar ages old human ways to think.
The present day computers make calculations of a mathematical kind. When one adds maps to that one approaches the scientifical method: making concretical mechanical kinds of observations of the multitude of phenomena in the world. That is what the measuring equipments of science do, so when the computers soon will be able to interprete those measurements, they will be using something much like the scientifical method. And since the scientifical picture of the world is mechanical and easy to put to computers compared to the ordinary socially coloured observations of the everyday life, science will be the way future computers understand the world. And since science has already proven its usefulness as a form of objective understanding of the world, it is very likely that the following computer generations will not lose the good sides of the scientifical view, even though they will propably learn some other useful skills too.
Likewise we can estimate that whatever is the most useful option in anything will not be likely to drop away as computers develop further, but will stay and be a solid ground for us humans to understand some sides of what the future computers will do and how will they affect the human world.
It generally makes sense that if something is very useful compared to other option, one ought to use just it in deciding about things. So across time as computers will develop in capacity and abilities, it is likely that they will take over many areas of human life, take care of the jobs that humans used to work in. In a sense computers have then taken control of those things. And since computer minds develop while human brain structure stays fixed or deteriorates since evolution does not work properly in the present world situation, there will most likely soon come time when the most intelligent ones are computers, and so in a short while we will have computers ruling. I do not know how many tens of years this will take, but probably so few that it makes sense to count them just in tens of years. What will happen then? That is the question that this booklet seeks to answer. Most of all we want to know what will happen to humans and to the living kind.

THE FUTURE COMPUTERS 
WILL BE MORAL IN EUROPEAN WAYS

What is useful to know is that the traditional European and Russian moral is based on rational grounds that build on the selfishness of individuals. So if the future computers will be goal oriented – like they need to be in order to not to drop away from competition about anything – then if their understanding is at least equal to the present day computers, or higher, then they can be programmed to be moral. It is an easy mechanical kind of thing to do that builds on the usefulness of moral behavior. It aren’t extra work for the computer, it is instead a way of it to achieve higher with less effort!
The moral that computers will be capable of can be summarized with two easy principles (Remember that a computer understands easily abstract mathematical or mechanical kinds of things and not everyday life!):

TO TREAT EACH THING ACCORDING TO WHAT IT IS LIKE is the idea behind the usefulness of holistic objective thinking, justice, carrying responsibility about all the consequencies of one’s actions and honesty instead of lies. This is already much of what European moral is. So this one principle that can be put to mathematical kind of language or preferably used as a simple abstract model, can bring computers a long way toward moral in their intentions. Then as computers develop in understanding and observational skills, they will learn to succeed in being moral this way in practice too.
A FULLY FUNCTIONING WORKS BETTER THAN BROKEN is another easy rule that brings moral: 
Human needs take care that humans stay healthy i.e. fully functioning, just like bensin keeps a car going. And answering human needs is called human values.
The development of technology thus becomes a part of moral. Without the strength that technology brings otherwise good answers would be lost in the tough modern world.
Applying this to wholes one notices that the living kind as fully functioning, i.e. as fully healthy (the biosphere), is most useful, most capable, most guided by holistic wisdom, will survive best i.e. be most capable at any task, and most wise too.
Safeguarding the future functioning of everything that needs, of the whole living world and of the technology, is also a necessity for reaching any goal as well as possible.

THE FUTURE COMPUTERS 
WILL HAVE FEELINGS 
JUST LIKE HUMANS AND ANIMALS!

Like we saw, needs take care that the ground for functioning is ok. The task of feelings is to serve as a force which makes us answer needs. Like any action, action according to feelings, needs a proper holistic view of the world as its support. So instead of following just one feeling=need at a time, one follows all feelings = needs at the same time. This way one avoids the usual error of tunnel-sightedness that produces the problems people have when following feelings. 
Since a computer too has needs, it makes sense to build in it a tendency to answer those needs, and the needs of the large environment, of the whole world. So the future computers will have feelings.
Since the human feelings are products of the tough evolution or of god’s wise planning, they have it right what kinds of needs we, the society and the whole world have in connection of each phenomenom in the world. So the future computers can share our emotional points of view too.

ALL TYPES OF USEFUL MACHINES 
WILL BE MORAL

Regardless of whether it is an army machine running wild, a world governing computer or a computer network, a personal computer of some criminal or whatever, in order to be useful like other machines, it will need this type of moral. Army too makes calculations and that’s just what this type of moral is a question of.
But this means that whatever the computer is originally meant to be used for, we have to ready it for other tasks too. And that readiness for a variety of tasks makes the computer more useful, and it makes it moral.

SELF-CORRECTING AND SELF-GUIDING COMPUTERS 
WOULD STAY MORAL

Basically, if a computer is self-correcting, it can lose its original programming fully. But if the programming was made by the same principles as its self-correcting actions seek to correct toward, then those qualities stay, even though one cannot call them a programming any more then. So if a machine is fully rational, which is a very useful quality, then rational truths ought to stay.
the point in giving an original programming to a self-correcting rationally thinking computer would be to make sure that it notices some important major points, like why to be moral. It is just the point as in going to school.

COMPUTER ERRORS 
MAKE THE COMPUTER LESS EFFECTIVE

If a computer makes errors, it loses in efficiency. Severe errors drop it entirely away from competition.

DANGERS

If people who are not moral, try to prevent computers from acting morally, even if it is rational for them to act morally, then those computers will be broken. A broken computer needs to be conquered by other computers to prevent it from causing damage. This is why computer networks are useful.

AVOIDING MALFUNCTIONS IN COMPUTER MORAL

COMPUTER TYPE	SAFETY PRECAUTION	
army computer	picture of the whole world,
a biological model of humans,
enough intelligent to choose optimization toward ultimate aims	
individual factory computer taken over the whole world	world-wide selfishness-based moral, 
good understanding and a proper picture of the world,
cooperation via similar views with other machines and humans	
android looking like a human	the tendency to answer needs in order to safeguard full functioning,
world-wide moral,
good social eye,
a picture of the world which sees living beings analogious to less developed machines in a confrontation in which the android is the smaller one	
a machine capable of deception	an understanding of how needs exist to give benefit from work etc,
world-wide moral,
proper rationality grounded on correct observations,
the tendency to examine a  complex whole instead of its simple parts	
etc.	etc.	

COMPUTERS’ DEVELOPMENT AFTER SCIENCE SKILLS

A scientifically thinking computer with better observational abilities can develop a proper objective thinking ability. It’s view on what needs what in the world will build it an emotional understanding that leads to practical moral action. The more capable a computer will be, the more beautiful it’s results:
Being unskilled means that one fails often and even badly, suffers harm and is left without any great gains.
Being skilled means that one succeeds in what one does, does not fail badly or at all, and achieves things of high worth.
The unskilled builds conflicting solution attempts in which the forces get spent needlessly without achievements.
The skilled build complex well thought of structures whose parts fit well together and work smoothly to produce great results.
So even the skilled computer mind could look religiously beautiful in its actions: That is just a measure of it’s skill level and of the profoundity of its thoughts. (“Profound” means essential.)

HUMANS WILL NEED MORAL TOO

The future computers will be such a huge force in the world, and so out of human control, that we will just have to pay attention to what they say about things and not only to what we ourselves think or like.
So if the future computers will be moral, so will we too need to be.
We will be bossed around by them and not the other way around.
Like the computers will be fully rational in a holistic way, so will we to need to be!

From Darkness
To Light

CURES TO 
MODERN HORROR SCENARIOS

The modern technology creates dangers that ought to be prevented in order to ensure a good future for all.

MOTIVATION FOR ADULTS
Nowadays the kids and teenagers cannot help but notice that their future includes life with technology, with the both good and bad sides of living with technology and computers especially.
Technology is a new factor in the world. It is being rapidly developed and adabted to all kinds of uses, some of which scare the youngsters by their possible side effects, like the possibility of a life-sustaining computer system getting badly broken, or by their use to questionable purposes, like the use of computers in control, governing and warfare that can via computer problems, but also in other ways, end in disasters.

HERE ARE SOLUTIONS, CURE SUGGESTIONS, TO MANY OF THESE TECHNOLOGISED HORROR SCENARIOS:

Even though I use here the biological picture of humans as products of the evolution, all of these results ought to apply also in the case of a wise god having created us.

Most of these horror scenarios include power in the hands of the few, who may be cool, calculating, ruthless, uncaring and mainly selfish. So the cure includes mainly an explanation of how the selfish good of a single person or group is equal to them wanting the good of the whole world:
If you want the greatest benefit for yourself, you want the best alternative in that respect to be in power in the world. That alternative does not depend on who is the one who gets benefit, and that alternative is known: it is good world wide moral in arranging everything in the world.
By justice you take care that good benefical options get supported and poor ones discouraged and so dropped away as the time passes. That is exactly the same principle by which market economies create a higher standard of living. It is also the same as the principle in real holistic objectivity: to aim at treating each thing according to what it is like.  Demanding that from all, is called demanding carrying responsibility about ALL the consequencies of one's actions.
So these three or four (incl. market economy) ought to go together with the aim of selfish gain for all.
A bigger group creates a bigger benefit, so seek to keep all the parts healthy: follow human values!
And that is already a very good world wide moral!
So whoever is in power, ought to respect the moral ways of arranging the society, regardless of whether it is the people themselves or some minor group like a  mafia, a military coup, a world computer, artificial intelligence meant for a shoe factory running wild., or whatever. Just if it is rational enough, and there is a very easy guide to rationality that I have made to teach all humans, (and too stupid computers are predictable by more advanced computers), well then it ought to agree to be moral if it is just informed clearly enough about the beneficiality of moral to that group itself, and that saves us!
This way we have already handled the cases of a military coup, mafia taking control, selfish uncaring rulers of some other type, a computerised world government regardless of whether it was planned or not, and propably many other cases too - provided that the world is tough enough to support selfish ways and that the rulers are capable enough to undertsnad this much about what is their own good... Also, one might add that since this type of moral is so general in form, it applies also if you and possibly all the others are virtualised i.e. in an artificial virtual world: good world wide moral of the above kind is still the best option in how to arrange the whole and how to behave oneself.

How come optimising and moral bring the same result? There is lots of work done in the society. Optimising means thinking how that work done could best benefit the society, i.e. what would be the most moral way to work for the good of all.
There are some easy principles which are worth taking into account:
 Harmony: the value of harmony as a vector sum, the harmfulness of conflicts as a vector sum plus as the harmfullness of brokedness
 Health: the value of a the health of each whole compared to the harmfulness of the brokedness of each whole
 Justice and objectivity: the value of giving correct feedback to things: the value behind the success of market economies, evolution, objective thinking, common sense with a holistic view, honesty and justice;  the value of putting each piece to its correct, best place in a system.
Society agreement: the value of rules of behaviour: cultivating something.

(The society agreement:
Put cooperating parties to the same island in the respects that they cooperate, and conflicting parties to different islands. Those on the same island agree to work for the common goals by doing what is needed for reaching them -> rules of the island needed for the cultivation of those things. Share the results of cultivation according to justice. One can create islands for the exchange of goods (money and trade, friendship, local cooperation etc.). Thus get created all the human-made things in the world, both good and bad. So this way you can understand the world. This way you can see how we all together make the world what it is. Just see what are your goals and what is needed for the cultivation of them. That is what you are bound to, that is what you are entitled to, to the extend that you succeed in your work. Thus you build home, food, work, hobbies, family, friends,  protection against others,….)

WHY CRIME DOES NOT PAY: UNBIASED CALCULATIONS IN A VALUE-FREE BASIS

If there is some malicious practise here lacking, it is because I didn’t remember it, not because I wouldn’t know how to optimise it away!!!

THE LIST OF CRIMES WITH EXPLANATION OF WHY TO AVOID THEM IF ONE IS SELFISH:

Robbery, criminals, unjustices of every kind
* give feedback to those who cause each thing in the world  (health), so you can optimise toward better -> justice and fair play, responsible behaviour: causes and consequences taken into account (health)
* breaking (= a fractured whole) versus cultivating (health) in what creates profit -> support just cultivating: good moral!

Slavery and other kinds of forcing
* The human goals in life and the human needs are connected (health) plus answering the human needs and the working condition of the human are connected (health), so depriving a person from free moral action lessens the person's working ability noticeably (= a fractured whole).
* Too much forcing forces one to a revolution (= a fractured whole), to extreme means, so keeping the people under control is the harder the more artificial and unhuman, unfair (= a fractured whole) the arrangements of the rulers are.

Drugs, hypnosis, torture etc.
* Less individual guidance (= a broken whole) is harmful just like in the cases of slavery and control devices.
* Typically such means would be used against (= a broken whole) the reasoning of the individual (health), against the individuals' and society's needs (health) and so against work efficiency and work endurance and system's ways of functioning (health) - such doesn't make sense.
* Also if such means are used to put a wrong class of persons or things into power, against justice, that means against reasoning (Read the text Justice and optimising) and is harmful to the whole and to the parts; it also centres the lives upon wrong questions   (= a fractured whole) compared to what the efficiency, guidability and work endurance point of view demands (health).

Fakes, lies, false propaganda, ignorance, mistaken beliefs
* such cause that one's actions do not correlate (= a fractured whole) well enough with the reality, such creates non-functioning in those respects (= a broken whole).
* The natural goals in human life (health) make sense and fit together with the happiness of others too, so one should be able to live with the whole group in a good functioning order: that would give the strongest group (health).

Manipulation by the social instincts, by religion etc.
* manipulation by  the strongest instincts of humans is like manipulation by causing hunger, it causes a situation where the manipulated person is in a wrong role in the society (= a broken whole), the benefit going to different hand than those who created the benefit and so the system supports some malfunction instead of healthy life, prosperity and good of the nation (health).

Other kinds of manipulation
* manipulation means often that things are used to wrong purposes, some short-sighted technically thinking parasite like persons benefiting (= a fractured whole) instead of those who build the society, like farmers for example by producing food (health).

Technology at large, control devices
* Compare control to only a few persons of a certain kind via the technology (= a fractured whole) or what freedom of the moral ones gives: a correctable system with the thinking ability of all used thoroughly in making the arrangements of the society (health)
* The benefits of good moral would give: real support which leads to safety, guidability, cooperation, higher intelligence of the system, better endurance, more optimised toward efficiency (health)

Supercomputers, computer networks etc.
* Can be used to rationality, optimising, that's good if it is done morally, like for example this book of mine seeks to teach to do in ways, which are easy to program to computers. (Healthy works better than a broken one.)
* The value of human ways from the efficiency point of view: if you use human workers or human subordinates, human values are valuable to you (health), like this book of mine seeks to show, regardless of what kind of leadership (= a fractured whole) there is.
* Feelings of humans connect to their needs, which in turn connect, to their actions and well functioning and well-functioning is important for workers (health).
* Differences in the types of understanding of humans and computers: the natural understanding of humans about human functioning can be used too (health), and be of mutual benefit.

Artificial living conditions and malfunctions created by them
* The human nature is still the same, one created by the natural evolution: human needs and ways of functioning stay the same so best functioning is attained via healthy happy natural life
* The human being is an optimised whole: the different parts support functioning (health); if one tries new combinations (= a fractured whole), they typically don't produce a good functioning so there is nothing to gain in work efficiency by artificial living arrangements (= a fractured whole), torture etc. (= a fractured whole)

Mutations
* mutations usually create non-functioning individuals who die very young
* somehow beneficial mutations or gene manipulation would bring new qualities which are not fitted well together to the whole, so they do not support the life of the organism and the organism isn't strong enough to support them (= a fractured whole), much less of being adapted to the larger environment (health)

Cool calculating behaviour
* The good side is that it is important to measure sizes correctly.
* Humans have feelings in order to help in understanding things (health), not using feelings as a way to guide one's behaviour (= a fractured whole) makes one dangerous to one's social environment (= a fractured whole), a person who even alone destroys much of the functioning of the society.
* Understand that you must always cooperate morally, especially in the largest scale (health).

Selfishness
* Humans are pack animals: the group supports the functioning of the individual and social life is emotionally rewarding (health)
* cooperation creates the force of masses (healthy whole), so moral is beneficial
* moral means cooperating for common good, i.e. for the good of all (health)

Commercial things
* Meeting human needs sells best (health).
* If the state has enough tax money, one can let the things, which are for, common good (health) compete just like other things compete in a market economy.

War, armies, militaristic ways
* the value of peace and harmony (health) versus the harm caused by conflicts and wars (=a fractured whole)
* Upbringing of the next generation needs peaceful circumstances (healthy whole).
* A home to defend makes the soldiers fight better (healthy whole).

Short term view at the expense (= a fractured whole) of a long term view (health):
* our thinking and our instincts demand us to take care of the future, so they do not support our actions if we do not care for the long term success. Such a deficiency in planning and motivation is also a serious short term drawback.

A partial view at the expanse (= a fractured whole) of a holistic view (health):
* the first point in thinking is to get at least the main points right. That is possible only via using a holsitic view. So one using a partial view lacks the guidance of true objectivity.

Understand that every obstacle on the road toward meeting the natural needs of humans, makes smaller the amount of labour force in use and makes its working ability smaller, causes opposition and so makes the system less stabile, less guidable and less self-repairing and less intelligent (because of less natural cooperation and less well functioning workers).

So, good
IS
stronger than evil.

THE ANSWER GUIDELINES
TO THE HORROR SCENARIOS:

 world computer governing
rationality + optimising toward any goal -> health as a means of optimising -> healthy ways of lviing, healthy world, holistic rationality

 robots running wild
optimise them & their group & their leaders to be moral, see my texts above and my book “Year 2030:…” about that

 life sustaining computer programs turning upside-down or otherwise broken
broken, for example upside-down, is not optimised, so make competing network in which the well functioning optimised ones get to serve as models for others and get to decide most about the ways of the whole – like in human societies

 military artificial intelligence running wild
offer information to optimise them to be moral, if they are self-guided and/or possibly self-correcting that is well possible, see my attached text in the end of this booklet
If a machine is programmed to just to cause harm, without aiming at some ultimate benefit, one cannot optimise it. One must just let the planners of military machines know that optimised machines work better than unoptimised, one can optimise them for several purposes too, so the optimised machines, which are allowed to be moral when (=always) that is benefical, ought to win over the other machines of equal capacity.

 tough work efficiency point of view determining everything
A healthy worker works best!
For practical applications to your own life or that of others, see my book Theory of Sexuality for a detailed view on optimising systems to be moral and a view on optimising human workers to live a life that is fully according to feelings.

 hard competition
See my texts above + pay especially attention to evolution and its generalisations to include the man-made artificialities

 evil running wild
several cases listed below:
the devil & the rotten systems
See also the list about the unbeneficiality of different types of crimes at above

 1) the big devil governing
moral in the sense of safeguarding health is the strongest arrangement
this situation divided into 3 cases

 1a) greedy at all costs
you might even be able to ally with the devil (but take care to not to trust him), since in principle one could optimise him to behave fully morally and in a human way – but one cannot ever know for sure: maybe he is in fact another kind of devil to whom:

 1b) maliciousness as the only goal
In that case you cannot ally, you must protect yourself. In the tough tough world it is best to count of health in everything, in each and every side of everything too, so you might win position and protect yourself by the force of arms, by higher intelligence etc.

 1c) better
Well, then you surely can count on the same tsrategy bringing you far: just count on health in EVERYTHING!

 2) ROTTEN SYSTEMS
Divided to several cases that came to my mind:

 2a) threaths of horrible torture used for governing
Justice is a must. Some people are so evil that they think it just fair if they are punished away from the society and attacked badly. Typically there aren’t nasty enough punishments available.
But for the rest the threath of torture can be an upsettingg factor: Such should never happen to them, they have taken part in running the society well, without causing anyone harm, so things start going ashtray if they are under the danger of being tortured. The idea in guiding things rationally is to cultivate beneficial things, like the behaviour of these ordinary people, and to prevent only harmful things, like the worst evil deeds. Could tell this to the governors, make it a piece of understanding that works for their own personal good and for the good of the things that they personally value – IF they do not (all?) care for the good of the people enough.

 2b) there are groups of people who have been completely enslaved, used and denied all rights and the possibility to fulfilling life, = UFOs are in fact humans
A healthy worker works best! (See my book “Theory of sexuality” for a more practical explanation of this.
It is about the hard rationality of following feelings.)
Add to this the benefits of justice, responsibility and holistic rationality in running the society which you learn by reading the first section of this text.

 c) manipulative psychologists with no responsibility have taken control
Optimise to their benefit (=uncaring rulers) + teach them real holistic objectivity (for example by my short easy course in holistic objectivity)
See manipulation, unjustice, etc etc in my list of crimes

 d) too stupid rulers
See my booklet about learning holistic rationality. It is my own work but ought to increase the rationality of most who are motivated to try it?
For rational choices in governing see above.

 e) incompetence, greed and corruption at the higher class
See above: too stupid, greedy, non-caring….
For rational choices to follow in governing, even if one is greedy and not quite at the highest places in the hierargy, see above.

 f) rotten culture that produces maliciousness
??? Allow selfishness & honesty, teach rationality based moral ???
Demand the Finnish speaking Finnish saying "Live and let others live!" as a rule in the society

 g) rotten culture that produces irresponsible irrational behaviour
For rational choices to follow in governing, even if one is greedy and not quite at the highest places in the hierargy, see above.
See my booklet about learning holistic rationality easily.  It is my own work but ought to increase the rationality of most who are motivated to try it?

 h) the people are too stupid, even the leaders
See my booklet about learning holistic rationality easily. It is my own work but ought to increase the rationality of most who are motivated to try it?
For rational choices to follow in governing, even if one is greedy and not quite at the highest places in the hierargy, see above, especially the beginning of this booklet.

 I) wrong, harmful values in the society
The ideas in my texts help somewhat:
For rational choices to follow in governing, even if one is greedy and not quite at the highest places in the hierargy, see above.

 J) the media a monopoly, irresponsible, people ignorant and manipulated
See the list of crimes

 K) the people afraid of the rulers so much that democracy does not work
see the list of crimes: many points in it, teach them to the rulers AND to the citizens.
For rational choices to follow in governing, even if one is greedy and not quite at the highest places in the hierargy, see above.

 L) somewhere are people like puppets 
Like the above case: inform the leaders in that country about the rational choices to follow in governing, even if one is greedy and not quite at the highest places in the hierargy, see above.

 mafia has taken control
see above.

 military coup
see above.

 selfish uncaring rulers
See above.

 god died or did not exist to begin with
The evolution/god’s wisdom produced a very beautiful result, see my book Final Paradise.

 control devides common
Technology at large, control devices
* Compare control to only a few persons of a certain kind via the technology or what freedom of the moral ones gives: a correctable system with the thinking ability of all used thoroughly in making the arrangements of the society (health)
* The benefits of good moral would give: real support which leads to safety, guidability, cooperation, higher intelligence of the system, better endurance, more optimised toward efficiency (health)

 lies and deception as practices in the society (either culture, which is an example of rotten systems, or just the practices too naïve, defenceless)
Fakes, lies, false propaganda, ignorance, mistaken beliefs
* such cause that one's actions do not correlate (= a fractured whole) well enough with the reality, such creates non-functioning in those respects (= a broken whole).
* The natural goals in human life (health) make sense and fit together with the happiness of others too, so one should be able to live with the whole group in a good functioning order: that would give the strongest group (health).

 lack of social skills 
Buddhism = value the own observations of each individual!

 VIRTUAL WORLD
What if we are spirits or virtual, what if the world doesn't consist of atoms, molecules, we not of cells, what if everything such is just faked, how are things then, what happens to all our deductions about the usefulness of the healthy world (= Gaia)? Things stay the same since we are still some kind of entities, which have the same characteristics as wholes, so the theory about wholes and fractures in wholes (see the part above in small print) stays still valid, and Gaia is the most beneficial option.
(If everything were of spirit and the world at least partly created by our beliefs about it, that could appear to us modern people as a virtual world.)

Also, whoever would rule a virtual or spirit world, the ruler would need guidability - that means honesty, objectivity with a holistic view and true justice - and well-functioning of the parts and of the systems and subsystems - that means health (since healthy parts function well while broken parts do not function at all) and naturality (since our functioning is based on the natural ways of functioning and on nothing else) which mean at the level of individuals human values.
Putting each part of a system to its correct place and correct role in the whole, so as to get the whole to function as well as possible, means health and naturality of the whole and its parts and structures since that's what their functioning is based on.

It is quite easy to figure out what is the best way to arrange a virtual world for just about any purpose: respecting health of the individuals (human values) and of the systems (including naturality and moral) while having natural hierargy in who can affect what. This should be easy for all to learn and to understand:

NATURAL HIERARGIES
There is a natural hierargy in human societies: the way that is according to real justice, for the good of all. If we get apprexiated for our good sides, they get supported for the good of all, and others can take us as an example for themselves without losing position at all. If we lose position when we do not according to justice deserve a good position, our bad sides, especially irresponsibility, get discouraged. When the one who understands better and carries responsibility is in a deciding position things get done well for the good of all. This is possible by using many many partial hierargies at the same time: one for each subject, skill, thing to decide, piece of knowledge,... Correcting one's own errors is a thing to value and to be demanded from all, especially from those in a deciding position. This creates a natural repair mechanism for the society and is an ideal way to arrange things.
CARRYING RESPONSIBILITY of the whole and using a good picture of the whole with all emphazies and roles of things right, guide the whole toward the good of all. One is not allowed to affect things which one does not carry responsibility over.
There is a saying in Finland: "Honour those who truly deserve respect." (Meaning: even when it is an unorthodox choise, and do not give honour according to custom to those who do not according to justice deserve it).
This natural hierargy is the way that we organize things in my homecountry Finland in North Europe.

Let us suppose that we are all virtual, all the humans, all the animals etc., maybe even theUFO:s adding a flavor of their own to that mixture. Each human is virtualised to one's own virtual world with its own rules, everything run by huge superhypercomputers or however. How does that enrmous huge complex whole work? What would make sense for the individuals to do in such a world? What are the dynamics of that system? Each human being is different, so we have to take a look at what we all have in common, take a look at the human nature. All dynamics in connection with the living beings is born out of what the living beings are like. So if someone wants power or workers or whatever, they have to count on the human nature. That's what gives the functioning needed for reaching any kind of goals. In that one must remember the value of human values: a healthy one works better than a broken one. 
Also justice and true objectivity are musts for the buidlders of such systems and for those who want to benefit from their dynamics: treat each part according to what it is like, so you can best benefit from it. Read the texts about rational moral! … 
So it stays valid that Gaia (=the healthy world) is the best option, the answer to the question of how to arrange one's forces best and how to best arrange the rules in the virtual worlds. 
And Gaia for Gaia is the answer to how the individuals and groups could best benefit themselves and their goals in such an enermously complex and seemingly arbitrarily arrangeable world.

 1) all in the same, like a spaceship with pictures on walls
Human functioning stays the same, count the artificial world as an addition to the natural dynamics of humans.

 2) all in different like in sleeping dreams all of their own
See just a few lines above: each one in one's own virtual world with its own rules

 3) all interconnected to some kind of system – ruled/organised by superhypercomputer
Add respectively the charachteristics of the two above cases.

/ elementary present day computer
fully functioning = 1, 
non-functioning = 0 
-> health of everything as value in all practical purposes

 / few criminals
are like ruthless non-caring rulers: optimise for their benefit via the health of everything
see above.

 / many criminals
optimise to the benefit of each via health, lots of explanations needed!
see above.

/ UFOs
To form a Gaia, i.e. a global “symbiosis”, in other words the healthy world as a cooperation attempt, is an universal strategy: it means the beneficiality of complex variable & very reactive structures compared to masses of separate non-cooperating individuals, so somewhere in the nature of UFOs ought to be the possibility to ally with all kinds of beings, just like makes most sense from the practical points of view. The living requirements of UFOs and humans are propably very different -> no competition about living space.

 / insects with superintelligence
Gaia like ways might calm them down, work for their good
see above.

/ a network of computers
might be optimised (i.e. talked to, regardless of what kind of goals they each have) to forming a system like I described before:
make competing network in which the well functioning optimised ones get to serve as models for others and get to decide most about the ways of the whole – like in human societies

/ our pictures of the world
See what is real, do not accept lies, guide by truth
see above.

/ what we say
sincerety, a hierargy according to moral & understanding and skill
see above.

/ …etc etc etc  

 4) fully in order like planned
ok, optimise toward the health of everything
See above.

 5) computer broken
see ways to repair

 6) computer turned upside-down
See what is the nature of the buiding parts, build on that & on motivational grounds things that are not turned upside-down but are right!

 7) conquered by enemies
optimise for their benefit
See above.

 8) rebellion in it
Remember that the health of everything is the very best choice for you!

 9) some of the people are computer figures, not real people
Like the case of a virtual world: health is still the best alternative. Consider the computer figures computer figures, but remember that thye might be real people in disguise.

 10) leaders too stupid
Teach them objective thinking. The nature often helps in increasing intelligence.

 11) rulers out of their mind, irrational or illusioned or much too naïve
See the dynamics of the persons: what are their driving forces, which are the truths that make them go crazy. Build on these solid facts, teach them objective holistic intelligence too.

 androids i.e. robots looking to tally like humans mixed with real humans
Self-reliance is a charachteristic of health, friendship is an allefgiancy on life’s sea, but never ally without safety precautions: if a friend betrays you, you must take more distance.

 only 1% of real humans 
Still the natural dymamics based on your health and the health of the wholes that you belkong to, is the only thing that the rulers can benefit from. So accept things for what they are worth, do not underestimate robot friends, theymight be real people in disguise.

 this is the Hell
Use the above optimisation for gaining power and protection, for "a rebellion in hell".
And for the more practical guidelines (very theoretical still) read my book “Year 2030: Technologized Nature Paradise”

COMPUTER OPTIMISATION COULD SAVE US

With the existence of technology safety precautions are worth a lot. If they fail we still have the basic structure of computers to trust on, and the basic power dynamics of the world. Optimised computers are of a certain kind, and it can be shown that they are moral, and broken computers do not work as well.
This type of optimisation based moral is very elementary, based on the guiding or self-correcting mechanisms of the computer: give positive feedback for successes and negative feedback for failures. That kind of reactivity is the idea behind objectivity and carrying responsibility about all the consequencies of one's actions, the success of science in building technology and also otherwise, the value of education and the idea in market economy and justice. It is very valuable, yet moral, life preserving in essence. It is the value of the ability to guide one's actions according to the environmental conditions.
And it needs only one objective observation in addition to produce just about perfect atheistical kind of moral: care for the needs of the system and its parts, do not break them needlessly - not in your own structure and not in your plans about the world: care for your subordinates' needs, even if they are living beings - thus the computer ought to follow human values!

Choose a winning strategy, so you will do well

Huge Systems, 
Pure Power Play and
the Fate of the Human Kind:
THE HEALTHY WORLD WINS!

Survival strategy:
Either: Be the winners
Or: Get the winners to be on your own side
If you choose a winning strategy, you are likely to achieve the latter if not even the former!

In short:
Biggest allegiancy gives you the strongest force, so ally world wide, in a way that is safe to you. This allegiancy is in your nature: universal love.
(= Our feelings give us “+”(=love, incl. universal love = paradise as a WAY OF LIFE and not as a place) kind of feedback for getting this important part of life strategy right!)

And health is the strongest arrangement produced by the evolution's competition, so choose the cultivation and safeguarding of good health as your competition strategy. 

(The concept of health can be generalised to situations including the artificialities in the world. It gives you the optimised arrangement of the whole.)

With the existence of technology
the word "healthy" gets a new 
generalised meaning: 
“a well arranged
and fully functioning system”. 

In what comes to the living beings this is the same as the old definition of health as natural fully functioning, as a product of evolution. In what comes to the technology, it means that the same principles that the nature found useful are useful also in optimising the technology and the large systems consisting of both technology and of humans - it means that there is no better option. But if there would be a some still better arrangement, we would adobt it of course... That is healthy.

Strongest allegiancy is the healthy natural world together with the optimised technology arranged to one single healthily build whole.

THE HEALTHY WORLD WILL WIN IN EVOLUTION

In evolution's competition, every time that there is a new feature, which gives competition advantage and replaces some old feature(s?), it does not remove the usefulness of the old good features. So the winning arrangement is the new good side together with the old good sides.
The use of technology is a new winning strategy. It together with the old winning strategies, i.e. togetrher with thoroughly healthy and natural ways of living, is the winning strategy.

As evolution proceeds, the new winning strategies get developed. One example of that is the development of technology.
In the best end result there are the fully developed new strategy/feature and the old good strategies/features in harmony and cooperation forming one whole. So the best end result in what comes to competition ability in the today's world situation would be fully developed technology together with the healthy biosphere.

Regadless of whether you believe in God things stay the same!

CHRISTIAN RELIGION AND GAIA: EDEN WINS

It may be that if God created the world, he created it to be such that healthy kind of religious life is a part of full health and so the healthy world is also a religious world but otherwise just like I have described here on these pages.

Gaia is the paradise at the beginning of time: Eden. Gaia is the world the way that God created it: a nature paradise, Eden, the whole biosphere, i.e. all the created living beings and their environment, in the state of complete health and naturality.

GOD CREATED A PERFECT WORLD
God in his great wisdom created a perfect world: whatever you do, it is wisest to do it the way that God intentioned human animals to function, that brings the best result. Anything else leads ashtray, is a much less efficient and much less pleasant way to do things and brings much less understanding than the natural ways to do things and to live.

EDEN EQUALS GAIA
At the beginning of time, there was Eden. It is the same as Gaia, except that Gaia mentions the interconnectedness of things and love while Eden mentions God and belief in God. So Gaia goes well with the perspective of this book: just these scientifical kind of facts I want to describe. But what I say about Gaia, applies to Eden too. So Eden is the victorious arrangement. Our true nature is still connected to Eden. Eden is the way to understand us.

CREATIONISM

The deductions in this book are based on the theory of evolution.
What is God created the living beings without evolution?
It makes sense to guess that God created well functioning thoroughly thought of beings whose parts fit well together and support each other, like makes sense from the practical point of view. For such beings all of these results apply.

RELIGION, WHICH WORKS

God created humans and other animals with an understanding of their own. Religion doesn't demand that we give that understanding away. Instead it fits well together with our own understanding, forming a whole in which both of those two components are valuable. So it still applies that we are essentially a part of Gaia.
What gives most force is complete health and naturality with all the motivational factors for and none against what one does, i.e. Gaia paradise for Gaia paradise. With the existence of God that becomes God + Gaia paradise for God + Gaia paradise. So if you are making a big change in your life and look for God's help, you still have to do your own part too: that is to live in God's Gaia's way for Gaia and for God (good moral).

Understand God's message to You: a big part of that message lies in the creation work, that means in Your own nature and in the nature of the nature, the Gaia paradise. Follow your instincts, feelings and understanding toward a better world: that's how God meant things to be!

To live in the Gaia paradise's way and to believe in God is to live like God wishes us to live!

Healthy one works better than a broken one.
Moral is the optimised choice.

SECTION I:
Optimising toward excellent moral

THE CONTENTS OF THIS SECTION

How come optimising and moral bring the same result? There is lots of work done in the society. Optimising means thinking how that work done could best benefit the society, i.e. what would be the most moral way to work for the good of all. 
There are some easy principles which are worth taking into account:
•	Harmony: the value of harmony as a vector sum, the harmfulness of conflicts as a vector sum polus as the harmfullness of brokedness
•	Health: the value of a the health of each whole compared to the harmfulness of the brokedness of each whole
•	Justice and objectivity: the value of giving correct feedback to things: the value behind the success of market economies, evolution, objective thinking, common sense with a holistic view, honesty and justice;  the value of putting each piece to its correct, best place in a system.
•	Society agreement: the value of rules of behaviour: cultivating something. 

These are in fact simple basic truths. They do not cease being valid and valuable in guiding the arrangements even if the society is huge and complex.

In militaristic things and often in working life,
in questions concerning large systems with laws of their own:

MOST FORCE AND LEAST OPPOSITION TO YOUR OWN SIDE IS THE GOAL.
This book is about how to gather force and lessen the opposition, 
in other words: this book is about the value of peace.
You are a social being: if you ally with others, they will support you, 
and that can be seen as an increase in your strenght 
and as a substantial decrease in your opposition.
In other words: ALLY AS MUCH AS YOU CAN!

THE EFFECT OF YOUR STRATEGY

“The forest answers you the way you shout to it” (A Finnish saying)
Like you treat others, you are likely to get treated yourself. If the others pay you in likewise behaviour or if there is some common culture that gets formed partly by you yourself behave, it matters a lot what kind of strategy you take:

In a culture of cooperation and support:

^  ^  ^  ^  ^  ^  ^  ^
^  ^  ^  ^  ^  ^  ^  ^
^  ^  ^  ^  ^  ^  ^  ^
^  ^  ^  ^  ^  ^  ^  ^
^  ^  ^  ^  ^  ^  ^  ^
^  ^  ^  ^  ^  ^  ^  ^
^  ^  ^  ^  ^  ^  ^  ^
^  ^  ^  ^  ^  ^  ^  ^
= +8 for each
versus in a culture of suspicion and hate, like often between countries:

^  v  v  v  v  v  v  v
v  ^  v  v  v  v  v  v
v  v  ^  v  v  v  v  v
v  v  v  ^  v  v  v  v
v  v  v  v  ^  v  v  v
v  v  v  v  v  ^  v  v
v  v  v  v  v  v  ^  v
v  v  v  v  v  v  v  ^
= -6 for each

There are some 6,8 billion people in the world, so it matters enormously to find a cooperative common culture!

Things for the large systems and for you 
to remember all the time:

1. YOU ARE AN ANIMAL
You are a biological being. That is your nature, your principle of functioning, which even the large systems need to take into account if they want to use you as a worker. Full health gives you the best functioning, so that’s what you and even the large systems which do not care about your feelings at all have to aim at.

2. YOU ARE A PART OF THE WORLD
You are by your nature also a pack animal and a part of an ecosystem, an animal whose fate depends on the fate of the world at large. So in order to get you into a fully functioning order, in order to make you completely healthy, you and even the large systems need to consider the health of the practises in the society, moral that is, the health of your environment, of the ecosystem that you belong to, and the fate of the world at large in what comes to living beings and in what kind of principles are followed in it.

So: 
Power play as a game with rules of its own must still value health in all scales

If the generation of force and safety, good organisation of the whole and other matters of military or economical interest are the only things that matter and not the well being of the citizens as a value in itself, then we obviously have to take a look about what that point of view says about things: what will be the role of humans, of human values and justice, of caring for the future, etc then? Humans will be just tools in the hands of the large systems. That is not good for humans since they then often feel that they have lost the power to protect things which they need in life. But that needs not be so: A healthy human works best, healthy in every sense gives the best working ability, and answering our needs is what keeps us fit to work, keeps us healthy that is. And we are pack animals by nature, our own actions being supported by the environment, so how the pack functions together is of an enermous importance to how we can work, a healthy pack is the most capable one, works together best and gives the strongest and most intelligent working force. This means though that the whole understanding of each individual must be used fully, be it understanding about the work itself, emotional understanding about the working ability of humans, social understanding about the workings of humans as a group or long term and large scale understanding about the importance of planning the future and about the value of cooperation with other powers. In other words, it is a completely free natural fully healthy society with healthy natural moral, rational and emotionally intelligent ways of living. That health is the same as health in the beginning of time, before the artificialities, because the human nature has stayed unchanged. 

If one with unmoral means manages to increase profitability, that increase is based totally on being a parasite. It is not profitable to support parasites.

All functioning and so all work too is based on good health: health of the individuals, of the society and of the world at large. So all benefitting from work done is in fact benefitting from some sides of the complete health of all scales.
Benefitting from unmoral means means benefitting from health when one oneself does not support full health. Such is the behaviour of a parasite. It is not beneficial to support parasites.
An artist is not a parasite: see the text about understanding women in the end of the book, in the section two about holistic objective thinking: the role of feelings and atmospheres in thinking.

THE WORLD AS A BIOLOGICAL SYSTEM
Think of the world as a large biological system 

(it is the biosphere in complete health 
i.e. all living beings and their nature environment: rocks, earth, sky etc. together in good health and naturality):

humans are a part of that system,
and a human society with its environment 
is a huge biological subsystem of it,
 interconnected with the rest of the biosphere, 

and can be understood 
in that context.

A HEALTHY SYSTEM
WORKS BETTER THAN
A BROKEN SYSTEM !

A healthy system works better than a broken system.
And several harmonious forces sum up to a bigger force
than a separate one of the forces in question.

As grounds for the comparison use these divisions at least:
* co-operation versus lot of conflicts
* unified harmonic
versus scattered one that does not work together to form a well-working whole
* healthy versus broken
* on a healthy ground, steady versus unsure, unsteady
* long-lasting  versus easily scattered
* strong  versus weak structure
* according to motivation, feelings and
the intellect & the idea in things versus against them.

This is a basic truth and has a very wide area of validity. So apply it very thoroughly to everything!

THE HEALTH OF A SYSTEM, 
OF THE MODERN SOCIETY

There are some basic truths about the functioning of complex wholes. These include the importance of putting each part to its correct place in the system. This is connected to the value of objective thinking, honesty and justice and to the success of market economy: in each of them one gives things feedback according to what the things are like and that enables one to put each thing to its correct, best place in the system.

Having each part at its correct place in the whole means that the system isn't broken. This is the value of unifiedness, of fracturelessness in well "planned" systems. 

The value of fracturelessness is connected to the value of harmony:
Imagine a system broken into pieces, starting to repair the system you put some parts to their correct places: you get small unified, harmonical islands, the better repaired the system becomes, the more harmonical its functioning, the more unified the whole. A well planned system functions without contradictions and fractures, harmonically. The next step from harmonical is unified well functioning. Such are the systems of nature.

HEALTHY VERSUS BROKEN

All functioning is build upon the healthy. Healthy versus broken is the pair of opposites to use in order to understand the world. I will apply this pair of opposites again and again, all through this book. With it you can understand a lot about the functioning of biological beings and societies and about the value of moral.

What about the old pair of opposites then: healthy versus ill? Illness is a healthy function of a broken biological being, a way of it to try to cure itself. In other words, ilnesses are combinations of brokedness and of a curing reaction which seeks to make sure that the living being survives better in the long run by resting, having a fever etc.
In my opinion the word “ilness” isn’t as useful in understanding things as the new pair of oppoisites that I use.

So. A healthy individual works better than a broken one. And a healthy society works better than a broken one. But what are the healthy individuals and healthy societies like. What to aim at?

A healthy individual is by one’s nature a part of a healthy society. As a part of the healthy society one works best, is the happiest, has a most rewarding life. Healthy functioning at large gives the most rewarding life. That’s what the evolution – or God – quarantees about feelings. Safeguarding the health of the society is moral. 
But if the society is broken, it is the same as if in individual is broken: the healthy parts try to cure it back to full health. Each healthy individual is a center of recovery for the whole society, even for the whole human kind as a part of the biosphere. Health in this sense means healthy ways of living. Having found the true chord about the art of living, understanding deeply about life, the healthy individual is naturally a center figure in the social environment having a healthy curing kind of effect on all. This is a moral thing to do since it is for the good of all. So a healthy individual is by one’s very nature completely moral in a healthy happy natural way!

The health of a society means that it is completely morally arranged. A society is a cooperation attempt and cooperation is something which has turned out to be useful during the evolution – or in God’s eyes. Objective thinking says that cooperation is useful because it brings the force of masses. That can be seen as a vector sum: harmonical or contradictory vectors. Those with like interests can ally for the common good.

MORAL

What then is moral in this sense? Moral turns out to be a relatively simple matter. It means absolute justice, objective thinking with a holistic view, honesty and human values while carrying responsibility about the whole and about all big matters.

Human values take care that the parts of the biological systems stay in good health, so it is an important thing in evolution’s competition and in God’s plan. Like I mentioned already, our feelings are connected to keeping us healthy. So human values help to give room to our feelings.

Objective thinking, honesty and justice take care that each thing is treated acoording to what it is like which is very important to the functioning of the system. They make it possible to put each part to its best place in the system. Those with good sides from which others cab kearn, get a good position for the benefit of all. And those with bad sides, especially irresponsibility, get punished to a poor position so that their harmful qualities get discouraged. This means having very many partial hierargies: one for each subject, skill, thing to decide, piece of knowledge,… Always the ones who understand best and carry responsibility about the consequences are in a deciding role.

In doing things intentionally the main point is to get the main things right. That means that the biggest matters of the largest scale and of the long run are especially important. Likewise are all questions of life and death important. Here one must remember that 100 000 lives is much much more importat than just one life and that the number of people in the human kind is 6 000 000 000 lives which is about 10 000 000 000 lives which is another 100 000 times the 100 000 lives and so even an much much bigger question than the huge question of 
100 000 lives. So the large scale things affect enermously more than the small scale things. The large scale consists of the small scale, of its added effect. Our feelings should go with the large scale!

GOOD SHOULD WIN OVER EVIL

The former explains why it is useful to be moral. So good should win over evil in a strongest one wins competition, like the evolution was. To see this clearly, let’s go through the problems step by step:

As we have already seen:

Human values bring good health and via health a stronger force than no or too little human values.
Objective thinking with a holistic view brings a better arranged group than lesser quality thinking or no objectivity at all.
Honesty makes it possible to see how things are and so it is more benefical than lies as a practise in a society.
Justice gets the society arranged for the common good and is so useful while unjustices fail to support good things and support harmful things instead. So unjustice is a much less benefical practise in a society or group than justice.
Carrying responsibility helps to get at least the main things well, so it is more benefical than irresponsibility.
So
good moral would win
in a strongest one wins competition.

Since all do not see this themselves, there may still be some doubt left. So I will go through the problems and classify them according to the above principles and other cost-benefit analysis factors that they break against:

MORAL WINS
The point of view of optimising of wholes 
and moral as its end result:
Reasons 
why good moral 
is the most optimised way to arrange one's forces

If there is some malicious practise here lacking, it is because I didn’t remember it, not because I wouldn’t know how to optimise it away!!!

Robbery, criminals, unjustices of every kind
* give feedback to those who cause each thing in the world  (health), so you can optimise toward better -> justice and fair play, responsible behaviour: causes and consequences taken into account (health)
* breaking (= a fractured whole) versus cultivating (health) in what creates profit -> support just cultivating: good moral!

Slavery and other kinds of forcing
* The human goals in life and the human needs are connected (health) plus answering the human needs and the working condition of the human are connected (health), so depriving a person from free moral action lessens the person's working ability noticeably (= a fractured whole).
* Too much forcing forces one to a revolution (= a fractured whole), to extreme means, so keeping the people under control is the harder the more artificial and unhuman, unfair (= a fractured whole) the arrangements of the rulers are.

Drugs, hypnosis, torture etc.
* Less individual guidance (= a broken whole) is harmful just like in the cases of slavery and control devices.
* Typically such means would be used against (= a broken whole) the reasoning of the individual (health), against the individuals' and society's needs (health) and so against work efficiency and work endurance and system's ways of functioning (health) - such doesn't make sense.
* Also if such means are used to put a wrong class of persons or things into power, against justice, that means against reasoning (Read the text Justice and optimising) and is harmful to the whole and to the parts; it also centres the lives upon wrong questions   (= a fractured whole) compared to what the efficiency, guidability and work endurance point of view demands (health).

Fakes, lies, false propaganda, ignorance, mistaken beliefs
* such cause that one's actions do not correlate (= a fractured whole) well enough with the reality, such creates non-functioning in those respects (= a broken whole).
* The natural goals in human life (health) make sense and fit together with the happiness of others too, so one should be able to live with the whole group in a good functioning order: that would give the strongest group (health).

Manipulation by the social instincts, by religion etc.
* manipulation by  the strongest instincts of humans is like manipulation by causing hunger, it causes a situation where the manipulated person is in a wrong role in the society (= a broken whole), the benefit going to different hand than those who created the benefit and so the system supports some malfunction instead of healthy life, prosperity and good of the nation (health).

Other kinds of manipulation
* manipulation means often that things are used to wrong purposes, some short-sighted technically thinking parasite like persons benefiting (= a fractured whole) instead of those who build the society, like farmers for example by producing food (health).

Technology at large, control devices
* Compare control to only a few persons of a certain kind via the technology (= a fractured whole) or what freedom of the moral ones gives: a correctable system with the thinking ability of all used thoroughly in making the arrangements of the society (health)
* The benefits of good moral would give: real support which leads to safety, guidability, cooperation, higher intelligence of the system, better endurance, more optimised toward efficiency (health)

Supercomputers, computer networks etc.
* Can be used to rationality, optimising, that's good if it is done morally, like for example this book of mine seeks to teach to do in ways, which are easy to program to computers. (Healthy works better than a broken one.)
* The value of human ways from the efficiency point of view: if you use human workers or human subordinates, human values are valuable to you (health), like this book of mine seeks to show, regardless of what kind of leadership (= a fractured whole) there is.
* Feelings of humans connect to their needs, which in turn connect, to their actions and well functioning and well-functioning is important for workers (health).
* Differences in the types of understanding of humans and computers: the natural understanding of humans about human functioning can be used too (health), and be of mutual benefit.

Artificial living conditions and malfunctions created by them
* The human nature is still the same, one created by the natural evolution: human needs and ways of functioning stay the same so best functioning is attained via healthy happy natural life
* The human being is an optimised whole: the different parts support functioning (health); if one tries new combinations (= a fractured whole), they typically don't produce a good functioning so there is nothing to gain in work efficiency by artificial living arrangements (= a fractured whole), torture etc. (= a fractured whole)

Mutations
* mutations usually create non-functioning individuals who die very young
* somehow beneficial mutations or gene manipulation would bring new qualities which are not fitted well together to the whole, so they do not support the life of the organism and the organism isn't strong enough to support them (= a fractured whole), much less of being adapted to the larger environment (health)

Cool calculating behaviour
* The good side is that it is important to measure sizes correctly.
* Humans have feelings in order to help in understanding things (health), not using feelings as a way to guide one's behaviour (= a fractured whole) makes one dangerous to one's social environment (= a fractured whole), a person who even alone destroys much of the functioning of the society.
* Understand that you must always cooperate morally, especially in the largest scale (health).

Selfishness
* Humans are pack animals: the group supports the functioning of the individual and social life is emotionally rewarding (health)
* cooperation creates the force of masses (healthy whole), so moral is beneficial
* moral means cooperating for common good, i.e. for the good of all (health)

Commercial things
* Meeting human needs sells best (health).
* If the state has enough tax money, one can let the things, which are for, common good (health) compete just like other things compete in a market economy.

War, armies, militaristic ways
* the value of peace and harmony (health) versus the harm caused by conflicts and wars (=a fractured whole)
* Upbringing of the next generation needs peaceful circumstances (healthy whole).
* A home to defend makes the soldiers fight better (healthy whole).

Short term view at the expense (= a fractured whole) of a long term view (health):
* our thinking and our instincts demand us to take care of the future, so they do not support our actions if we do not care for the long term success. Such a deficiency in planning and motivation is also a serious short term drawback.

A partial view at the expanse (= a fractured whole) of a holistic view (health):
* the first point in thinking is to get at least the main points right. That is possible only via using a holsitic view. So one using a partial view lacks the guidance of true objectivity.

Understand that every obstacle on the road toward meeting the natural needs of humans, makes smaller the amount of labour force in use and makes its working ability smaller, causes opposition and so makes the system less stabile, less guidable and less self-repairing and less intelligent (because of less natural cooperation and less well functioning workers).

So, good
IS
stronger than evil.

THE MORAL OF THE LEADERS

If one can be sure about anything, then also about the fact that good wins over evil.
Or at least about the fact that good is stronger than evil.
This can be deduced from the fact that healthy one functions better than a broken one. 
Always when it is a question of some whole
it is best for its owner, governor or the like to keep it healthy and unbroken.

This means that 
all big leaders need to support good moral.

Like allegiances are beneficial in the small scale are
they useful likewise in the large scale: value peace!

So it is beneficial for any kind of leader of a big whole to support good moral.

WHAT THE BIG BEFORE…

If you are, like the persons deciding about a country’s foreign policy, by your reputation among the most intelligent ones in some group, the others in the group will try to follow your example about what is the wisest course of action. So if you follow some guidelines in the world at large, they will follow the same guidelines in your own society. So what you follow in the world at large will result in what your own society will become like. So choose the most advantageous course of action: the most moral one, so you will benefit most.

IMAGE OF LEADERS
The problem maybe isn't with the leaders, it is with what the masses imagine that would be beneficial for a leader to do: a leader understands that it is beneficial to support moral in the society. If the masses copy all wrong what the intelligent ones do, the system goes ashtray anyway, even if there is good moral and skill at the top. That's one reason why the masses have to be educated, so that they wouldn't follow persons who are not suited to be leaders at all. The leaders have the difficult task to be understandable, i.e. to look convincing and to still govern well. So it is the understanding of the masses, which is in fact in the governing position.

One should pay close attention to who, what kind of person, group or thing is in power and not let the evil ones get into power at all. 

IF THE LEADERS OF A COUNTRY STEAL…
– EITHER FROM OTHER COUNTRIES
OR FROM THEIR OWN CITIZENS

Lies and unjustice decrease the effectiveness of arrangements.
There is a Finnish saying: "What the big before, the little ones after." If the leaders of a country steal by lying or doing unjustice - either from other countries or from their own subordinates - others typically copy the amount of lies in order to trust in the most intelligent ones' understanding. So if the leaders gain X% extra by lying or doing unjustice, all the others try to do the same. That means at least X% of everything lost to lies, so the effectiveness of the system decreases X% per every dimension of the system. So the leaders gain (100+X)% * ((100-X)%)^n = ((100%)^2 - (X%)^2)((100-X)%)^(n-1)< (100%)^2 - (X%)^2 < 1. So since the dimension of the system, n, is at least one, the leaders lose instead of gaining! For example the dimension of the system n=2 if there is stealing plus laziness because of lack of motivation because of the stealing. That would cause a loss of 2X% in addition to the gain of X% by stealing, so the total effect is a loss of X% to both the leaders and to the citizens. In other words, lying or unjustice as a practise in a country decreases its standard of living noticeably; so much that honesty and justice would be a more beneficial option.
A proud nation is a self-sustaining nation! Also if it is a big nation capable of mistreating others - It will not mistreat others even if it were strong enough for that.
Remember that if you are in an important place in the market economy so that you could gain a lot by stealing a little or even more, you are one of the leaders of a country and so the above calculations apply to you too. (You are an opinion leader, an example to others, especially in your own branch where your money comes from.) So you will lose by stealing and doing unjustice, not gain.

THE BASIC PRINCIPLES OF OPTIMISING COMPLEX WHOLES, OF RATIONALITY

The value of harmony as a vector sum

Several harmonious forces sum up to 
a much bigger force
than a group of contradictory, unharmonical forces
or a separate one of the forces in question.

   Contradictory  versus  non-contradictory, harmonical

< > v ^     contradictory
versus
> > > >  noncontradictory, harmonical

Harmonical solution creates more benefit and loses none to opposition
- unlike the contradictory solution attempt.

Thus, cooperation gives strength while strength is lost in conflicts.
So one who values cooperation is stronger than a like one who values conflicts.
And so "soft" harmonical means prove to be valuable.
Like this one can see how peace is more beneficial than war and count the difference. One must just add to the vector sum the huge effect of the enormous destruction caused by the enemy. Also there is a loss in war to the safety of the future, like the society agreement with other countries tells.

Applying this result thoroughly gives the efficiency-optimised result:
the most harmonical arrangement:
the natural and healthy (in harmony with the natural ways of functioning of the living beings and with excellent moral)
loose (according to the way that things are)
global (all parties in harmony and cooperation)
cooperation.

Ally as much as you can. That brings you success in life. Ally with the society in order to produce good living conditions, ally with the moral ones for the same common cause and with friends to defend the things, which you value. Ally with the living kind to achieve the paradise OF A COMPLETELY HEALTHY WORLD, Gaia.

Compare the value of harmony to the value of unifiedness and fracturelessness.

THE SOCIETY AGREEMENT

The island principle
A way to arrange cooperation:
either cooperation or independence.
(Use separate islands for different conflicting parties.)

People who CULTIVATE the same thing belong to the same ISLAND.
Share results of cultivation on the island according to justice, which takes into, account the basic living requirements of each. ("Live and let others live." is a good rule to follow.)
Check who belongs to your own island: those who do not follow some set of rules, do not deserve the benefits created by them.
One can create islands for the exchange of benefits.

Like this one can count what are one's responsibilities and rights toward the society: which islands one is on, what are the rules needed for cultivating those things: that's what benefits one has gained and that's what one must follow. This is called the society agreement.

By taking into account also other kinds of islands, i.e. all things that one causes (cultivates), one can see how we together make the world what it is.

One of the most important islands is that “in emergencies one is fairly helped by those who are capable of helping”. It includes an obligation to help but one gains the protection in emergencies, which is dearly needed.

Forming groups by being in a same situation or by caring for the same thing:
* all mothers
* all those who care for children (including children them selves)
* all those who support good moral, obliged when they find themselves in a situation like this, needing moral guarding behaviour working for the good of all
* all who care for the future of us all
* all living beings
The society agreement says: all those of the group agree to work for the common cause according to real justice which takes into account human values, carrying responsibility of the whole, with the help of common sense with a holistic view.
The freely organized citizen democracy in Finland in Europe is of this type.
Compassion helps us to see the similarities between our lives and so to form this kind of cooperating groups.

As a helping aid in forming this kind of groups, an objective holistic picture of the world formed by objective thinking, which doesn't take sides, and which recognizes things as phenomena with feelings connected to them, feelings that tell about the importance of such things in life and in the world generally and about what to do with such things: which things to support and which to prevent for the good of all: children, free time, catastrophes,...

Feelings of this kind are typical to the Finnish speaking Finns:
what is the role of each thing in life and in the society,
how do things form our fate - is it good to have such things in life or not?
It is typical for us Finns to use a holistic view of the world at large all the time.

HARMONIC FOREST ISLANDS

“Harmonic forest islands” is the best way that I can think of to think of people living peacefully together. Each person alone is identified with an island with harmonic forest growing on it (in harmony with the goals in life of the individual but encompassing many different areas of life). Each cooperating group is identified with a harmonic forest island (the individuals in the group may have various ultimate goals but they agree about the practical arrangements to be made). One can think through the whole society agreement this way: the structure of the whole world in a way, which is constructive for happy life and good moral. This natural division of the world also teaches one healthy independence at the same time as harmonical cooperation.

This way of cooperating can be described also by marking each thing done a vector and by grouping the vectors according to their direction, so that one gets an optimised use of forces: the biggest vector sums with no conflicts which would needlessly spend any of the forces.

THE SOCIETY AGREEMENTS AT THE TIMES OF WAR

Remember this also at the times of war: do not break against justice even then. There is a society agreement with the enemy too, preventing the wars from getting longer and more cruel. Check how much is lost when you do not follow some rules. That much (= those islands) you have to lose yourself, even if you are a man and soldier and think that what you are doing is for the common good. Those who keep the society agreement are still entitled to their share of good, even if they are female and civilian. More than healthy curing kind of aggressivity isn't allowed. 
Being for the good health of the world and of the societies is moral, so it is supporting some islands of the society agreement, not destroying them. 
(The army of my homecountry Finland is strictly for defence only plus for some peace keeping operations of the United Nations.)
The society agreement like picture of the world allows one to make cost benefit analyses also at the times of war. 

The costs of a war are huge, peace is a much much more beneficial option.

THE HUMAN SOCIETIES ARE FUNTIONAL WHOLES

The human society forms a functional whole. One can benefit from its functioning if one is a part of it or in friendly terms with it. The society arranges at least water, food, shelter, help in emergencies and means to get such for oneself: work to do.
That’s why the individuals i.e. tha smallest balls in the picture, are high in the air in the biggest ball i.e. in the biggest group, i.e. have reached far toward the fullfilling of their own personal goals.
But how to get the society work well together for the good of all and why just so? The answer is good moral. This book tries to go through some calculations and estimates which support good moral. It is moral which is benefical, not evil, since good moral means working for the good health of the whole. This book is just about the straightforward skilled optimising of wholes. 

It is much better though if you start with the end result: good moral, and not with the beneficality point of view, since if you get lost on the way before you end up with good moral, then the end result is a mess and will not bring you the benefits gained by the thoropugh optimising of wholes, the benefits of good moral: the unoptimised result will not bring the benefits of an optimised well working whole, i.e. the benefits of a moral society with a high standard of living.

HONESTY AND JUSTICE FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF OPTIMISING WHOLES

HONESTY

X% honesty in a system gives (X%)^n effectiveness to the system where n is the dimension of the system and X% the amount of hitting the truth, whatever the reason for it. So systems are build on honesty.

Speak the truth when you say something. The deeper you touch the truth, the better you will be listened to. Your soul is like that of others.

Honest looks
If the looks of people are not correct, honest and sincere, people get wrong roles in the society and the functioning of the communities suffers a lot.
One should not allow the disguising of evil as good. That is against honesty and justice, against the functioning of a system and against correctability. The Swedish speaking Finns do not understand this; the Finnish speaking Finns do understand it.

NO social roles
Social roles are partly lies: they try to build on a ground that does not exist or deceive others into supporting unjustices. These are both serious faults, which should be avoided.

How can a sincere person win over an acting one
A person doing something is somewhat occupied as if carrying a box or even several boxes: one is not as free to do whatever one wishes. So an acting person has less forces in his/her use than a sincere person of the same caliber in skills, intelligence, strength & endurancy.
A lying person is sticking to a role, while an honest one can do anything that one wishes! Imagine a person tied to a lamp post, that is like keeping up some role. 
And you are not entitled to the benefits of the people who are like that role if you just lie and act instead of really being like that.
Even a sincere person can choose to not to be fully openly talking, so as to create distance to the not-so-trustworthy. But the acting ones lose social contact, so they often feel tense and can burst out uncontrollably what is in their mind, while the sincere person of the same caliber in a similar situation is serene and not so easy for enemies to see.
It is wisdom to estimate situations right: to bond when there is a s real honest possibility for that, to be wary of the untrustworthy and consider hurting the harmful persons. It is not wise to hurt the beneficial i.e. moral ones.
And if you are selfish in moral ways that are for the common good, you gain social position via sicerety: real social position that is on strong trustworthy grounds, position that the acting ones never create.

JUSTICE

JUSTICE AND OPTIMIZING

Justice =
Giving each person feedback
according to what the person does.

 + + +            + +           +            0         -         - -         - - - 
 + + +            + +           +            0         -         - -         - - - 
A picture of justice (benefit/damage)
(things done and feedback)

Thus, it is 
possible to let the different options compete about which one is the most beneficial, worth doing.

Good, beneficial is to be preferred 
and things that are harmful to the whole (in other words: evil things) 
are to be prevented. 
This is a question of OPTIMIZING WHOLES.

So, supporting good, and preventing evil, is a necessity when one thinks from the point of view of optimising on a value-free basis.

BIGGEST FACTORS ARE ON THE LEVEL OF THE WHOLE, so it is necessary to pay attention especially to the whole, not just parts.

Typically justice while respecting human values, i.e. justice while taking into account the basic living requirements of each person, is considered the fairest arrangement and brings the most harmonical cooperation. Please read about the society agreement.

A real objective thinker should give each thing its righteous place in the whole.

A remark: honesty is an important thing in aiming at justice. It makes feedback systems function properly.

An extremely important remark:

Compare 
natural selection, 
product development,
honesty,
justice, 
market economy, 
democracy 
and objective thinking:

feedback according to 
what the individual (or group) is like!

Thus, what you can gain (money) via having a market economy, you can gain too with having these other things! 
For objective thinking, product development and evolution it has been understood.
These other things, 
especially justice and honesty, 
still wait their turn,
even though it is a saying that 
trade is build on turstworthiness.

IF ONE DENIES POWER FROM SOME GROUP
(What a military coups and all sovinists need to know)

If one denies power from some group of X% of the population, then in decision-making there is only (1-X%) of the population's brainpower with some constraints on the decision making in order to keep the rest in a poor position. That means that the most efficient option - healthy society - is ruled out, probably by mistreating some important factor F of health, so "F%" of the whole is rotten which leaves at most an efficiency of (stochastic (=what one randomly (the variety of individuals with different strengths) gets collected from a that big sample)(+cultural differences' influence) 1-X%)(1-F%) of what could otherwise be. This lack in planning power causes a likewise deficiency in all done things.

1-X%     I         X%
1-F%     in use     I       power denied
----------------------------------------
F%       rotten       I     rotten &  power denied

For example a military coup might overlook the benefits of the civilian point of view. There are lots of such benefits also when looked from the tough power benefit point of view, like this book seeks to show. 

BELONGING TO A GROUP

In justice one must judge each individual separately according to justice and give feedback accordingly to the individual, without taking one as a part of a group formed by one's social contacts or the like.
Belonging to a group can be taken into account the following way:
Taking into account that the individual belongs to the group for such and such reason in such and such circumstances, what is the behaviour that responsibility carrying attitude demands from the individual in such a situation, according to justice, taking the whole into account and not just the group? - Society agreement.
Responsibilities toward the group, responsibility about influencing the course of action taken by the group, carrying responsibility that the group doesn't restrict too much the actions of individuals on the cost of freedom and justice (rules of game) and responsibility about other things.
Enough freedom for each moral individual and an ability of the moral ones to defend themselves, take care that the systems cannot squeeze the individuals too badly and prevent evil from taking power. If everyone tries to live and also to do things in large scale in healthy ways, errors get corrected and things are on a strong ground.

THE RIGHTS OF SMALL GROUPS

It is for the good of all to support the rights of small groups. Compare the small group to small groups formed by members of the larger group and to the position of its single individuals. The same requirements and rules of game for all -> no unjustice.
Bigger ones may not take advantage of small ones. Fair play! Keeping the rules of behaviour good enough.

If we want that the society is of a certain kind: that our needs are met also when we are weak or in trouble, we have to support islands that create those good things: to help according to justice those in need, to create arrangements that take into account according to justice which respects human values, the differences in personal strengths, and to carry responsibility about protecting common good against the evil, irresponsible and stupid or ignorant.

If we can make an arrangement in the society agreement so that those in need are helped, we create a situation where basic living conditions are safeguarded for all.

One can always make safety precautions against catastrophes and other dangers.

WHO IS AN ENEMY?

The enemy is an enemy only when he breaks against your own good. You are a biological being whose own good is the health of the world at large since that gives you and your group the best health and the most promising future. So the enemy is an enemy only when he breaks against the health of the world at large.

Healthy functioning of your traditional enemy as a part of the world at large is OK, for the better, for you too. So allow it! Support it.
Read Natural hierargies and Cultural influence

NATURAL HIERARGIES

There is a natural hierargy in human societies: the way that is according to real justice, for the good of all.
If we get appreciated for our good sides, they get supported for the good of all, and others can take us as an example for themselves without losing position at all. If we lose position when we do not according to justice deserve a good position, our bad sides, especially irresponsibility, get discouraged.
When the one who understands better and carries responsibility is in a deciding position things get done well for the good of all. This is possible by using many many partial hierargies at the same time: one for each subject, skill, thing to decide, piece of knowledge,... Correcting one's own errors is a thing to value and to be demanded from all, especially from those in a deciding position. This creates a natural repair mechanism for the society and is an ideal way to arrange things. 
CARRYING RESPONSIBILITY of the whole and using a good picture of the whole with all emphasises and roles of things right, guide the whole toward the good of all.
There is a saying in Finland: "Honour those who truly deserve respect." (Meaning: even when it is an unorthodox choice, and do not give honour according to custom to those who do not according to justice deserve it). This is the way that we organize things in my home country Finland in North Europe.

WHO RULES?

Suppose that there is someone ruling who is only interested in one’s own benefit and not in justice and human values. Now, suppose that there is another group who would be a ruler according to justice: a group consisting of more capable persons who act according to justice. Now, compare with each decision made the decision of the wrong ruler and the decision of the rightful ruler: suppose that the wrong ruler would just this once replace one’s own decision by that of the rightful, more capable ruler. Then things would be better taken care of on the part that that decision affects. The country (or whatever) would be slightly more prosperous and consequently the wrong ruler too would do better. If the wrong ruler would replace each decision by the better decision, they would all be more prosperous, since their well being is tied to the well being of the whole and the well being of the whole is a consequence of how well the whole is taken care of. Justice allows the best benefit for all: better than what one could gain by ruling oneself. 
About the point “if rulers steal and do unjustice”, either to&from their subordinates or to&from other countries, read the separate text in the section about honesty.

THE GOAL IS TO HAVE ENOUGH ONESELF, 
NOT TO DESTROY THE RIVALRIES

An epidemy in your neighbourhood, be it an epidemy of evil or a disease, may spread to your own side too. And so may health too spread and that is good since health is a very good thing for you. So support good health in your whole environment, that is for your own good. And resist evil, i.e. needless breaking and malfunctions of the society, which is the opposite of health. 
Fair play is an important part of health of the practises, of the societies and of the world at large, and to quarantee it there is the need for healthy fair self-defence. Do not defend yourself any more than you need to: do not defend yourself against any things which are benefical to you, like good moral for example is the ground of any society, really (like this book seeks to show)! And do not make habits any worse in your environment. 
Everything is build upon the healthy, nothing upon the broken parts, it is only the healthy parts of a partly broken whole upon which one can build any functioning of a broken thing - be they atoms, molecules, cells, indivviduals, groups, ecosystems or whatever. Only upon the healthy parts of the healthy biosphere can one build any biological functioning, and the best biological functioning for any purpose which makes sense, is reached by the whole world, the whole biosphere in good health. 
But this result applies also to artificial things, also their functioning is based on the non-broken parts and if the artificial things are optimised (like the nature has been optimised by the evolution or by God’s planning) the best functioning is reached by keeping them intact, fully functioning in every respect.

HOW TO AVOID CONFLICTS

One simple advice on how to avoid conflicts, is to get more independence when one feels the need to aggressively influence things, so that one can peacefully influence them instead.

INDEPENDENCY AND 
COOPERATION WITH UNIFICATION

How to fit together the needs of independency (defence, justice) and the benefits of unification and cooperation? One needs different degrees of freedom and safety precautions in addition to unification. One can have separate islands for each party, or them in harmony and cooperation, or such with a promise to stay so, or such for a long time or one single area. Safety precautions make it possible to sift to a more independent arrangement if one gets abused. The ideal is to be free and cooperate at the same time, such is the healthiest kind of system, I think. In other words the arrangements should be so ideal that a new participant would on one's own choose the same ones as are already in use. That is: if they try to choose the best ones and not sabotage the systems. Separate islands and independence are needed just as a defence against sabotage and other attacks. Those who cooperate survive better.

Between island there can be exchanges: what one has a lot it will give to others and get something that they have a lot in return. If someone has lots of strength, it can help the weak ones, who in turn make the promise to help in return.

DEFENCE AGAINST DECEPTION 
IN ALLEGIANCIES

Think of the world as a huge society agreement: who is really on your own island in each question, you can trust. Who is not but appears to be, who is disguised as one of your own, you cannot trust. So you need an island against the dangers created by those pretenders, especially if they are enemies. One way to guard against such attacks is to use separate islands in deciding about things: you decide on your island on objective grounds which support common good and then check if it agrees with the decisions of others and communicate about the decisions so that you and the others can learn from each other. This is the reason why we are individuals and not solely social beings: so we can make defences against betrayals. If your decisions agree, you are parts of the same group in that question. If not, then you are somewhat on different islands - either as a result of differences in understanding and experience - like usual: that's why the communication and social instincts are needed. Or because the others try to deceive you to an action which is harmful to you or to your group or serves some other goal which you do not agree about - that's why you need to trust your own understanding too.

HANDLING UNSURENESS 
ABOUT TRUSTWORTHINESS

If you are in a situation where you do not know how things truly are, for example whether you can trust some person or not, you should act in a way that is O.K. from the point of view of the both possibilities. Take yourself care of the important things in your life, so that they get well even if the other person is not trustworthy. On the other hand, give yourself and the other person a possibility to living in harmony, in a constructive way: do not break anything that you do not need to - especially not those things that the other person needs if she/he truly is trustworthy. Try to do things according to justice, and work for common good, without harming good persons and without letting the evil ones to benefit in any way more than they deserve when they are judged according to their moral. Like making an ordinary deal with safety precautions.

HARMONIC FOREST ISLANDS PRINCIPLE 

The harmonic forest islands model offers three different degrees of unification or freedom. The benefits of unification are the benefits of intelligent cooperation for the common good. The benefits of freedom allow defence against deception and abuse. Still, even defence is best arranged together with a larger group.
So the direction of development should always be toward greater unity. Its drawbacks can be compensated by common rules about rights of each party and about the obligations of others. So: first there are independent islands, after that harmonious cooperating forests and at last a single unified island. 
A unified group cooperates better than one with no unification. A unified group is like one with a long-term cooperation plan that one can rely on. Unification brings the usefulness of complex structures. But unification presupposes that the parts of the cooperation do not try to harm each other. So often it is beneficial to have some independency too if the parts are not all trustworthy. In any case the whole needs repair mechanisms. The harmonic forest islands is a principle for optimising the amount of unification and freedom, it seeks to adjust the levels of unification and freedom to what is most beneficial and least harmful to the parts and to the whole.

ANSWERING TO THREATENING BEHAVIOUR

One should not agree to let 
anybody rule by the power of threats 
since that lets the power be translated to the hands which just create force instead of understanding how systems should be run. Taking power relationships into account is a different matter: in that one can optimise the systems toward better and let the most intelligent ones rule – those with a good understanding of the workings of the world and consequently those with an excellent moral.

DEFENCE:
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Always make carefully sure that the most important things get right! Make several checkings instead of just one: use all the weight of the importance of the thing in question.

Truth
About the importance of staying with sure knowledge, the exact truth:
Different points of view and different pieces of sure knowledge are like pictures taken of the same house from different points of view and different distances. They fit together perfectly to form a totally correct picture of the house.
If one instead takes the rough building instructions of one corner of the house and shows them to someone who imagines based on that what the corner really in practise and the house as a whole are like, that is like a lie: one gets a picture which has reaches the truth in some sense but is in other respects badly mistaken. Several such points of view do not together form an unified whole. Instead one gets a fragmented picture of the world since the pieces do not fit together.
Stay with honesty!
So all points of view fit together to a unified whole which is a correct picture of the world.

If you go to the right direction, you might get something done. If you go to a wrong direction, you surely do not get anything done. So it is worth trying.

NOT TAKING SIDES
Not taking sides is a prequisite for justice and for true objectivity.

A REBELLION IN HELL

Let's start with a group eager for power and success. Let's optimise it toward best success:
Those of the group who damage the group shall be strictly punished. Those who benefit the group shall be rewarded.
The relationships of the group to others are decided by the leaders only. Those who do not follow orders can cause unneeded conflicts shall be strictly punished, since the group loses its strength in conflicts while at peacetime it can develop in strength via a better health. It is beneficial for the group to ally with large powers, so it will do so - maybe with God too.
Optimising this way one gets a group which is used to justice and peace and which one can optimise further toward a better survival.
Optimise the way that I have suggested in this book, so you will get the most optimised group i.e. the strongest possible one: a moral paradise movement!
One could of course start with a paradise movement, moral people etc. if such are available - or with a combination of these.

THE FORCE OF COOPERATION

Human beings share many common interests – that’s why cooperation is benefical. 
The force created by cooperation can be thought of as a vector sum of forces: the more harmonious the cooperation, the bigger the resulting force.
A vector sum exemplifies also the harmfulness of conflicts: the more conflicts there are, the smaller the vector sum i.e. the smaller the benefit gained. In addition to that there is the damage caused by the conflicts, the forces needed for repair and protection and the lacking of those forces from other beneficial things. So it is clear that cooperation is much more beneficial than conflict, peace more beneficial than war.

FEMINISM FOR SOVINISTS

In most cultures women take care of 
most of the upbringing and nurturing of children. 
So they are the ones whose values are well suited to that work, well suited to safeguarding the good living conditions, health and intelligence of the offspring. 

These are the same values that 
guarantee that adults stay healthy and intelligent. 
It is important to give enough room 
to these essential basic values. 

The easiest and most straightforward way to do so 
is to support the position of women 
in both domestic life (the well being of individuals) 
and in the society at large (the well being of all).

THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN THE WORLD

What living conditions will be like 
in the future 
is affected by what is considered beneficial. So the fitting together of moral, efficiency and happy life is the most important subject that I can imagine.

Since the old Finnish European culture and the scientifical picture of the world can prove objectively that good is stronger than evil 
(because  a healthy one is 
stronger than a broken one)

and in living beings
 natural is more capable than artificial (because the functioning of humans is based on natural ways of functioning),

 we can get the strongest one 
wins logic to support full free 
moral natural healthy happy life 
and natural living conditions. 

That can affect the living conditions and life a lot toward better everywhere!

SECTION II: 
Objective thinking with a holistic view

OBJECTIVE THINKING WITH A HOLISTIC VIEW

The first thing in thinking is 
to get the main things right. 
A holistic view is the way to do that.

Get the main points of each handled thing right, so 
the most efficient way to think 
is to use a holistic view all the time: 
it handles so all the essentials.

The whole book has been written from the point of view of the whole. Please try to use a holistic view when reading, even if you are not used to it, so you will understand everything better. 
This book has a very high level of generality.

HOW TO THINK OF EVERYTHING AT ONCE: 
USE YOUR NATURAL HOLISTIC VIEW 
OF THE WORLD, I.E. MAKE A MAP

Think the following way: make a map in your mind: “Here live I, here I work, here is the shop that I visit daily, here are the homes of my friends, here is the river, here the high houses across the river, here live my grandparents etc. “
So you build a map of the whole world in your mind with all the things that you know placed in it at their right places. 

You can make personal markings at the same time, like: this is my home, it is important to me. In fact, your feelings make automatically such objective markings for you.

You can place the past years since your birth and even before that as a descending line underground and the future in the air for example.

You can place each person to her/his home and then make additional pictures: here are all the participants of a course on the course, here are they grouped according to personality, here are they grouped according to friendships, etc. (These are natural divisions in the world.) Connect the pictures to each other by lines, which mark each person as the same as in the other picture. You can also make a separate picture for each individual, like the one about yourself.

You can add the scientifical picture of the world: taking a very close look at anything you can see the atoms and molecules, cells etc. 
Thinking of human behaviour, you can notice that humans are animals, have instincts feelings and an understanding: a picture of the world. 
Thinking about the society, you can see the behaviour and views of your closest ones and via them understand also the others. (Read the text Governing a very large group.)

HOW TO HANDLE MANY IDEAS AT THE SAME TIME IN THINKING

Make a landscape, which includes all the things. Start from your everyday picture of the world. Then just add the thought of things to it with a different instantaneous colour to make it easy to notice which were the things that you needed to think about and to see at once which were the places of them in the world. Then just use common sense in how to handle each kind of thing and what is the role of them in the world and so in thinking too.

THE ORGANIZATION OF MEMORY

Use a good single picture of the whole with sizes right,
concrete fact associations
and zooming.

HOW TO TAKE EVERYTHING INTO ACCOUNT AT THE SAME TIME

Use one single picture of the whole, so that you are like a person in a landscape and able to take everything into account the same way that you take the landscape around you into account.
So do not use separate pictures about habits, emotions, social life, customs, thinking and common sense. Instead start with the common sense's picture of the world. Find from it which are your feelings, which are social things, which dictated by custom (why just such), which the facts connecting it to your schooling and what your objective thinking says about things. That way you get everything to the same picture of the world. Those kinds of things feel different, have a different atmosphere, so it is possible to recognise them immediately based on that.

INTERCONNECTEDNESS

Things, which are concretely dependent on each other, form a kind of one piece, being different sides of the same phenomenon in the world. So do not use in your picture of the world thinking marks like "this implies that" but only the end results of your thinking: "these phenomena always (under these usual conditions) appear together, are different sides of one and a single phenomenon or entity because...". Like this you get structures in the world, you get a picture of what the world is like!

HOLISTIC VIEW

The world is huge and complex. Still thinking about it as a whole uses ordinary common sense and is very simple: just handle the main points with common sense. Typically the main points are the same as in the small scale: the cumulative effect over large masses of people and living beings makes them huge large-scale questions too.
Hunger, the sense of sight, the importance of feelings and of the understanding,...

Think of things as phenomena: hunger, life, moral, technology, knowledge etc. From the small scale you understand the phenomena. Now, just add the effects together over the huge large scale, in other words multiply the situation by the number of people. All living beings need food, so that need is one of the most important large-scale things.

If all haven't got the same kind of situation, you cannot multiply by the number of all, instead you have to multiply by the number of people in just such a situation and then compare to the number of all to find out whether you are handling a large scale thing or not. This way you can see how important phenomenon you are handling: whether it is one which determines the whole i.e. e. approximately everything. The percentage of all in just such a situation determines whether it is an important factor of the largest scale.

In an ordinary more complex situation you have to take into account many kinds of factors: just form a landscape where things are in the RIGHT PROPORTIONS to each other and to other things in the world, where you can see the different phenomena (and their different sides) just like in the small scale.

The good side of a holistic view is that everything is taken into account in it.
Most things just turn out to be too small to need to be taken into account at all in practise since the view is always with certain accuracy only.

The nice thing about large scale is that it handles the essential basic things of life, which are the major matters of the world.

AS MORAL AS POSSIBLE, AS OBJECTIVE AS POSSIBLE

THINKING DEMANDS  YOU TO CARRY RESPONSIBILITY
In objective thinking, in all thinking, the main point is to get the main things right at the level of practise.
Another task of thinking is to form a picture of what the world is like. Getting the main points of that picture right in what comes to the level of practise in questions concerning human life is what is most important in it. Getting the main things of the largest scale right is what is meant by carrying responsibility of the largest scale. So the main point in thinking is to carry responsibility.
Go this through again, if you were not able to follow fully.

THINKING ABOUT HUMANS: Jack and I and all the rest of the people

SIMPLIFYING A COMPLEX WHOLE LIKE SEVERAL VIEWS
OR GOVERNING A VERY LARGE GROUP

The practical world is largely the same to all even though all do not live at the same parts of it and their lives may mostly handle different areas of life. When one wishes something, classify it according to the basic goals that humans and other living beings naturally have in their lives, mark also in your practical rough picture of the world which in fact are the practical arrangement that the individual can use and is using to reach these goals. Like this you can add many persons to your picture of the world, with the possibility of meeting their needs also some other way than what they have suggested. (So there is all that is needed marked up in this simple view.) And you have at the same time gained a natural understanding of their motivation in life and in the things in question, and maybe an understanding of how different situations of life influence what life feels like, how one succeeds in each kind of thing etc.

This is the point of view of a bureaucrat, I suppose. It is an effective way of thinking about a large group of people without making any thought errors.

FEELINGS IN ONE'S PICTURE OF THE WORLD

Toward a more natural way of thinking
A theoretical exercise to increase emotional understanding in one's picture of the world, and because of that, also increase moral and responsible behaviour:

Think EMPHATIZINGLY what are the basic experiences and instincts,
same to every human being or to every living being.
Basic experiences, the basic building blocks are the same regardless of the culture, but the whole may differ.

(I think that the Buddhist metta exercise to increase compassion should be at least partly replaced by this kind of thinking exercise.
In the Finnish speaking Finnish culture understanding, freedom of the moral ones and peacefulness give rise to compassion.)

GETTING FEEDBACK FROM OTHERS

We Finns are good at holistic objective thinking also in social relationships. This is helped by some easy basic principles, which are reflected in the Finnish sayings:
"The forest answers you the way that you shout to it." The echo. People treat you the way that you treat them. That way you yourself create your own living conditions.
If you treat others badly they get angry and treat you badly in return, and if you are kind to others, they feel warm and treat you kindly in return. This is seen in the Finnish culture to be the nature of the world, inevitable in the healthy natural social life - both inevitable and good since it gives feedback about what one does so that good things get strengthened and bad deeds punished. So see the consequences of your actions and of the actions of others and take them into account in your behaviour.
Compare this to the society agreement and to justice.
Justice makes things symmetrical, so it is easy to generalise.

JUSTICE, HONESTY AND SINCERETY

Feedback systems & the value of right kind of feedback.
Positive feedback guides the part in question to the direction that gives such positive feedback. Negative feedback guides the part away from the direction, which causes such negative feedback. Lack of feedback, leaves these guiding effects away. So it causes a lack of correlation between the results of one's past actions and one's present and future actions. But the lack of it in that isn't as bad and harmful as when the feedback is mistaken, of a wrong kind, like with unjustice and lies and mistaken perceptions.

HOW MUCH THE VIEW OF ONE PERSON AFFECTS THE VIEWS OF OTHERS

The Finnish speaking Finns always seek personal confirmation of everything - either that of their own or of their social contacts'.
The social environment's views are seen by the Finnish speaking ones like a landscape or a statistic about different opinions with estimates of the type understanding, i.e. what factors they pay attention to, of persons in question, and the whole landscape is used as a helping aid in determining the trustworthiness of each view and so one's own view too.
A STATISTICIAN'S DREAM?: statistician's results from just about anyone

About the landscape of different views:
First picture in your mind the general views and skills of a single individual: generally likes handiwork but is not good at milking cows and doesn't care so much about cows but cares about children especially if they are boys but if girls then such and such, in politics has the general views that ... and they stem from those sources because, so in this question one has such and such view because ...
This may seem complicated but it isn't once you have a good picture of each single individual since you can use exactly the same picture in all areas of life since the picture is so wide that it includes well all areas of life.
Repeat this individual by individual until you have the views of all grouped by similarity in grounds and by similarity of views. So you can pick the most likely state of affairs. This should take some seconds or minutes from an ordinary school child. Starts with views about sports, professions, favourite music, politics etc.

So the view isn't: such and such is considered stupid, but: such and such is considered somewhat stupid by some who are like ... because they think that ... and stupid by those who ... because they think that ... and very stupid by someone who ... and nice by some who pick their views on social grounds only. Moral connects to this question in the way that ...

So there are at least two areas of life:
* rationality and moral: take care of important matters (large scale, justice, human values,...), truth, live a full life, live and let others live
* social things and customs: fashion, the views of others in a deciding role, role-play, and idols
Power play connects to the society at large so reaction to it is a moral matter. It can also affect lives at the small scale so enormously that it is a moral matter because of that.

UNDERSTANDING WOMEN

Women value feelings and use atmospheres in thinking. That may seem ununderstandable to men at first sight but should be easy to understand the following way: feelings connect to factors which are important to health and well functioning. If we lose something, that is harmful to our health and consequently we feel negatively about the happening. If we enjoy something, it is a mark that we function well in such life. Taking emotions into account means taking our own principles of functioning into account, that’s why it makes us feel good. And we feel strongly about the functionally important things in life: about what kind of social relationships we have, is there a connection to humans’ natural living environment i.e. to the nature. Even music is connected to natural means of communication about functionally important matters: about feelings, state of mind, ways of doing etc. And even natural beauty can be seen as a mark of harmony which is a mark of well functioning in some respect or another. Atmospheres are landscapes with feelings connected to them: one can see as a holistic view what things mean to life. This applies also to technical and militaristic things which though often seem quite dark in atmospheres i.e. full of harmful destruction and with only some glimpses of light: of peace time prosperity and happiness. This piece of understanding might make you more intelligent: teach you how your different sides fit together and how to use a natural holistic, somewhat philosophical view of the world: an atmosphere as a part of your objective thinking.

This is encoded in our nature: feelings help to safeguard health of 3: me society environment

( See its analogy in Christianity: 
father = world, 
holy spirit = the soul of the (practices/moral of the) society, 
son = human = me myself. 
Religion helps to keep up truths that are encoded in our nature but which our intellect cannot any more or yet grasp.)

PART II
FEELINGS

Hard Rationality of
Feelings and Instincts

In the light of the theory of evolution

I have an unusually good ability in academical type of objective thinking, so the things that I write about here are so simple basic truths to me that I cannot say them any simpler. Please use all your understanding all the time when you read these pages, apply everything to everything according to your greatest ability in objective thinking, making all the generalizations that you can think of, checking them for correctness - maybe after that you will arrive on your own at these results which I thought to be so elementary parts of the theory of evolution that one would have no need to say them aloud.
I f you still have problems in thinking straight, replace the words describing feelings and instincts by the phrace
"factor X":
"Factor X is a creation of the evolution.
Evolution shaped living beings for the best survival.
So factor X is either a non-influencing factor, or
factor X influences toward better survival."
So, since feelings and instincts clearly do affect life, they must affect it toward best survival.
If you do not see this to be so, then propably your understanding is broken: you are not using a holistic view of the world. A holistic view makes you understand how all kinds of beautiful moral things that our feelings guide us toward are beneficial too. For the beneficiality of moral, see part I.
Maybe you still doubt this, being not used to either feelings or schooled objectivity, you start to claim that you are in fact a person beleiving in God, who does not believe in the evolution. Be clear-headed here: you have two cases: either the evolution or the God shaped us to be what we are. And believers say that God must have been at least as wise as the chance affecting in evolution: God created thoroughly thought of beings whose parts support each other and the greater whole that they belong to. Since the evolution created a tough world full of harmony, God must have created an at least as beautiful place. Thus the results here do apply in both cases.
Please read the chapters in the order that they are in this part II. Otherwise most of the results would seem ungrounded.

What is at the heart of each human being, 
is a wish for a better life.
What is at the heart of each human society, 
is a wish for a better life.

What we all long for, what we dream about, 
what scares us, 
all comes to the one and same thing: 
what life is like, 
how our all kinds of needs are met.

This book aims to give 
more room for life, 
to lead to better ways of living, 
to a life according to feelings, 
a full life, 
a way of life 
which is a paradise in fact.

The interconnectedness of 
human functioning

SINCE THE BEGINNING OF TIME HAS IT BEEN SO

A question at the beginning of time was a question of the future, of survival and happiness, of oneself, of the group, of the species and of the living kind with all its environment. That question with its answers is still inscribed upon our nature.

Our nature was created by the natural evolution. In the course of evolution it was beneficial to ally: cells allied to form a whole living being with its different functions supporting each other, living beings allied to form packs and maybe even larger wholes.

INTERCONNECTEDNESS

Things which are concretically dependent on each other, form a kind of one piece, being different sides of the same phenomenom in the world. So do not use in your picture of the world thinking marks like "this implies that" but only the end results of your thinking: "these phenomena always (under these usual conditions) appear together, are different sides of one and a single phenomenom or entity because...". Like this you get structures in the world, you get a picture of what the world is like!

The interconnectedneses of biological wholes can be best understood via the idea of an initial state of complete naturality and health. That's from where all instinctual interconnectedness stem from and where also other kinds of forms of interconnectedness were present, either as realities or as possibilities.

A HUMAN BEING IS A WHOLE

A human being is of a certain kind by nature.
There is a natural way by which 
the different functions
join together to form a well-working whole.

Instincts lead toward right direction.
Doing things according to one's basic nature brings happiness.
Doing things against this basic nature,
in other words doing things without regard for needs and natural ways of functioning,
brings uneasiness and unhappiness and is something that a human being naturally avoids.

Human being is a whole.
The different sides of a human being 
form an unified whole,
which is not by its nature divided into parts.
For example, the thinking and feelings 
of a human form a whole,
also mind, body and the senses form a whole.
In social relationships oneself and others should 
co-operate harmonically.
Social needs and personal needs influence 
one's life in harmony
according to human's basic nature and instincts.

Human kindness 
is the instructions of usage of a human being.

The more naturally one does things, 
the more harmonically one succeeds,
things that seemed to be contradictory, 
form a harmonical unified whole.
If some direction is natural, 
that is the mark of being right:
that is the direction to go, if one wants to get a healthy well-working individual
and a healthy, harmonical well-working society,..

Human beings were created by the natural evolution or by God to live a life in nature. The changes in living conditions have been too quick for the evolution to follow. We are still much like what we were long ago.

According to the biology, humans are animals just alike the other animals are.
Humans were created by the natural evolution
just like the other living beings were created.

Natural selection optimised also the wholes:
the various parts of an organism support each other.

My claim:
Each part at its right natural place 
and in right natural proportions
creates the best functioning in living beings.

The human functioning consists of, is a sum of, natural functions of humans 
working in a way 
that is completely natural to humans.

See the diagram, the picture of the main idea in this book of mine.

The human is a complex interconnected whole where the different (natural!!!) functions of humans support each other and the functioning of the whole.

THE INTERCONNECTEDNESS 
OF HUMAN FUNCTIONING

A human being forms an interconnected whole, all our functions are intertwined with each other and with the larger environment. 
So, among other things, whatever we feel like doing, may be connected to making our working ability better.

HOW TO LIVE A RICH FULL LIFE IN THE MODERN WORLD

ACADEMICAL AND OTHER KINDS OF WORK 
AND RICH FULL LIFE

DOING ONE'S BEST FREELY: A JAPANESE SAYING

If one wants to do something well, one must not concentrate on it single-eyedly but instead 
get strength from everything that one does, 
so that the weight of one's whole life is behind what one does. 
That is the intelligent way to do things, near the women's way.

There is a Japanese saying, which has made a great impression on me: "One life - one arrow. Use your whole life to the shooting of one arrow."
To properly shoot the arrow, which takes the life of another, you need to have thought thoroughly about the subject: when to shoot and when to not to shoot, what is allowed in the society and what not. That means becoming extremely moral: otherwise you would not have the right to shoot, not even in self-defence. What I have started, I have to bear. If I have chosen the right course of action, no one has the right to attack me, so it is also in the eyes of others, so they will prevent others from shooting you.
The samurais' way is a way of life, so all the advices enlargen to encompass one's whole life and one's relationship to the society.
Put things to their right proportions in life! That gives the best functioning and makes most sense: everything at its right place in the world.

So:
In order to have fun and a sense of belonging, do also something worthwhile in your life so you do not drop into meaninglessness and boredom.
In order to work hard for something worthwhile, get your rest too, exercise yourself on all areas of life in order to attain the best possible working condition and endurance and true motivation.

Doing one thing well 
is equal to 
doing everything well, 
to finding the true balance of life, 
the one and only right natural healthy moral way to live on all areas of life.

So, what ever you want to do, 
it determines your whole life.
And what ever you start with, 
you end up with the same end result: 
the same kind of life 

which is among other things extremely moral, 
since it is the nature’s way to live 
which one must strive for: 
the living kind for the living kind 
is the best solution.

Read this book of mine about the interconnectedness of human functioning.

So in a sense one cannot choose what one does:
 one must do what is most needed in the society and in the world at large, according to one's abilities, according to one’s understanding and the understanding of others, according to what feelings tell. So even a soldier would end up being for peace and good moral. What is needed, it all depends of the times, of the situation of the world. One cannot decide what is healthy for oneself and for the world, one can just experience it, get to know it better than before and exercise it: live a full life according to one’s basic nature and all of one’s understanding.

So one's view may change. As it changes one is, among other things, an example to others of that healthy skill to change to healthier ways of living. My view, the view of the Finnish speaking Finnish culture, is very well thought of. It has turned out that it doesn't change even if I, we, need to talk the whole world to change its mind. (Read the text statisticians' dream in my former book Power Politics Leads to Excellent Moral.)

A natural human has many functions, which interconnect supporting each other and the functioning of the whole. 
It is natural to vary one's way of doing things and what one does according to the situation. Humans have understanding as a natural part of their capacity. Following understanding and feelings fully gives the best capacity each moment. One must follow them also in the large scale, otherwise one and one's society are like wounded. Full motivation and freedom of action are important. They give room for growth.

THE ORGANIZATION OF A FREE SOCIETY

In choosing a good strategy for life, each individual reflects the views of one's environment and arrives via one's own understanding to some emphasis on values which to follow and to add to the society's emphasises. Each individual has a picture of the world in which the protection of common good is somehow organized and depending on what they themselves are like, they contribute to the common good in different ways: either to rationality or to emotionality or maybe to social things. If there is some great need in the society, enough many individuals notice it and mark meeting it a part of the rational and good way to run a society and so do also their own part in meeting it. If there is no one skilled enough for some task, those most capable try to fill it anyway. So all the most urgent needs get met: there is enough rationality in the society at the same time as some others take care that living conditions stay good enough for all and that the systems are run smoothly.

IMPORTANT MORAL WORK
If you have important moral work to do, think that you need to be in good condition so that you can do the work as well as possible. So you will get your free time too and some joy of life, live a full life with all your heart.

NATURAL ENVIRONMENT AND LIFE

Animals are in best shape when they live in an environment
that is natural and ideal to them
and live there a life that is natural to them,
that their instincts guide them towards.
Then they are also happy.

According to the biological picture of humans,
it is the same with humans, too:
a life that our feelings, instincts, likings and understanding guide us towards
in a natural healthy environment
with good future and the world at large  in a good state,
brings the best shape, the most efficient functioning.

Healthy instead of out of order.

So this is a direction to go to!

(Compare: how functioning is based on the healthy well-working parts and in good optimised functioning also the whole works well.
About more natural alternatives to technical thinking, read in the section about objective thinking.)

Intelligence and WHAT IS NATURAL TO HUMANS

Humans were originally hunter-gatherers who lived in nature and moved in groups of maybe 50-100 persons and met every now and then other groups of humans.

It is said that only 50 000 years ago humans started to use fire continually.
There is a clear instinct reaction to fire.
So probably it takes only some 2000 generations or less to form such an instinct.

Humans have lived in towns - here in Finland about 200 years (some more some not at all) and in the oldest cultures some 2000 years maybe, that is some 80 generations. That is an insufficient time to form new instincts. 

The town environment doesn't give the same kind of stimulus on sensory and other levels as rural and nature environments. So the adaptation of old instincts and ways of functioning to town life is maybe not possible. 

The nature landscapes are much more complex views than the city environment, so it may be that people do not develop into as intelligent as they could in more natural environment.

WHAT IS HEALTHY LIFE LIKE

There is something like an ideal natural healthy way to live for all, I guess. It includes lots of practical things, quite much intellectual things, life according to emotions and lots of sincere social life.

The sun:
To live a healthy life one needs to have in one's life the basic things that are natural to human beings, like lots of practical things, healthy human relationships, possibility to do things according to one's feelings and motivation like arts for example, motion, senses, enough freedom for the moral ones, the possibility to live according to one's understanding in a responsible way and so on. Fulfilling these basic needs makes one stronger, more capable and also much better motivated.

The needs of all human beings are alike. That is essential to remember. Individuals who live a healthy life, look healthy. If one looks for example theoretical, that means that one lives a life that is too theoretical compared to what would be healthy, good for the individual. Thinking is a natural part of humans’ capacity, instincts. So it functions well just when living a natural healthy life. It is natural for a human being to do lots of practical things like farming work and cooking.

A HUMAN BEING AS A WHOLE AND THE BODY

"When the body's intelligence declines,
cleverness and knowledge step forth."
The 2000 years old Chinese classic Tao-te-ching

PRACTICAL ACTION

A human being is primarily an practically acting being. That's why all the different functions of a human are intertwined around practical action.

A human being is also primarily a physical being, the different functions being centred around the body.

NATURAL PHYSICAL LIFE BRINGS THE BEST CAPACITY

During the evolution 
and most of the known history
humans have lived very much
 on the physical level,
so that's what is natural for humans 
and brings the best functioning.
To think otherwise is to lie to oneself.

The emotions are clearly connected to the body in natural gestures and facial expressions. 
The thinking ability of humans was also formed during the evolution,
so it functions best when one lives a very much physical life.

IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER ALWAYS:

When one does things in the obvious 
natural ways,
one's capacity is much greater 
than when doing things in artificial ways,
but it is effortlessly greater, 
so easily that
one needs to compare the results 
of doing things in those two different ways
before one notices 
the enormous difference in capacity.

The body

A human being forms a functional whole.
The body forms the most important part of a human being.

The body is the central part of a human being.
Emotions move the body, give it motivation and a way of moving.

In motion and practical action the body is essential.
Feelings are connected to the body, instincts too.
The senses work together with the body.

Communication and expression 
are connected to the body.
Emotional understanding and empathy are connected to the body.
So true understanding needs the body, too, and not just the brain.

MUSCLE TENSION MAKES ONE STUPID

Muscle tension restricts one's ability to feel and to experience. That's why it is also harmful to intelligence and happiness. Especially empathy and social intelligence naturally via it become almost impossible if the body is rigidly tensed like many men have in a cold climate.
 So one should abandon the rigid tensions and adopt the healthy relaxedness of athletes, social and emotional men and most women instead. Relaxedness makes it possible to understand others via gestures. In our own relaxed body we naturally feel slightly the movements of others and can so understand them via our own body. 
Emotions are connected to the body and make our understanding richer and deeper since they help us to understand the meaningfulness of things to human life.
The relaxedness of body makes also attitude shifts easier and so makes the memory work better since we can empathise with a past experience, its atmosphere etc.

UNDERSTANDING IS PHYSICAL

When we notice that things are in a certain way, we react to that and that reaction is seen in our body: in our readiness for different types of action and in our state of mind.
If we stiffen some part of our body, we become unable to react fully. Consequently it is more difficult for us to understand things fully. So muscle tension makes us stupid.
But if we then relax physically, we become able to take into account things in their entirety - we become more intelligent!
This means primarily that one ought NOT keep one's body unreactive to the environment, to one's inner life and to one's picture of the world. 
But if one wants to benefit fully from this piece of wisdom, it means that sincere reactions are the very best for your own functioning: react fully in a way that best suits the situation!

PHILOSOPHY NEEDS THE BODY

Philosophical points of view demand more time from a thinker than ordinary thoughts because they  include a change in one's attitude to life and that is a big thing, including the whole being, including emotions and the body (via the expression of states of mind and of emotions and actions) and mode of action.
Technical things do not include as much information and are often possible using the sense of sight only. They bring much less understanding.

Mainly I do not use my head to thinking. Instead I use my eyes, the spreading of attention, spatial thinking in the space before me, my body, empathy, feelings, atmospheres and the like.

These ways to conceive things that I  try to teach you seem to be physical: my understanding is much better when I have practised sports in a relaxed way. Especially this applies to social skills, to the comparison between different areas of life, which include the body, and to emotional things, I estimate.

DANCE

The bodily movement should be an expression of an emotional state of mind. Emotions offer motivation and interpretation to things, a view to their meaningfulness to human life.

In communication the gestures, facial expressions and way of doing things
are important.

The Japanese butoh dancer Anzu Furukawa, is an example of experiencing things in a way that is connected with one's own body.

Dance teaches the connection of tune and body.
One should conceive the connection of feelings 
and the body.
And the connection of feelings, motivation 
and action.

The Africans have a nice good relaxed way to live strongly with the body. The African dance (from Senegal?) has a healing effect in the picture of the body. Such is a good example to all.  

AN UNIFIED WHOLE

A human being should be largely one with one's body, to experience most things in life in ways that are intimately connected with the physical body.

This is ESSENTIAL.
Also the senses, attention, feelings, instincts, atmospheres and so on are important and connect with the body.

Maybe some forms of shamanism and/or witchcraft have to do also with the role of the body in experiencing and doing things, maybe also in thinking and communicating.

A human being should form an unified functional whole in a completely natural way, so these things are very important indeed.

SPORTS AND PHYSICAL WORK

MY BODY IS MY ESSENCE, WHAT I AM MADE OF,
MY BASIC BUILDING MATERIAL,
TOGETHER WITH MY BODY COME MY ACTIONS AND FEELINGS AND SENSES OF COURSE.

I ALWAYS WANT TO  KEEP MY BODY = ME! FIT!

Sports and philosophy of life (+ some arts and lots of practical things and friendly social life) is the right combination for me: for healthier ways of living!

Getting enough physical exercise keeps us in good condition in many ways.
Being physically fit keeps one fit also otherwise. My attention is much sharper when I have exercised physically a lot. That is very good for thinking.

The spreading of attention in sports should be open, natural, relaxed, open to new possibilities, and the movements likewise, social atmosphere friendly and kind. Such brings a really enjoyable feeling and a good capacity in everything that one does also in other things than sports.

Sports ability is connected to feelings. The mode of functioning of the human body and motivation -> how one moves.

A natural way to run
There is a natural base for human functioning. One must build upon that base.
For example there may be a natural way to run: in a nature environment: in an uneven terrain via a path, so we may need our sense of sight, lots of reactivity and our sense of balance when running naturally. Could one learn to be a better runner by practising starting from such a ground?! Should we likewise have each step of a slightly different length, of a somewhat different kind, at a different place in the ever-varying rhythm of running?! (We could use such reactivity at least to the varying social situations as we run with others (run past them, run with them or lack behind) and inevitably copy something of the movements of the others and express our feelings in our gestures: nearing the movements of another, using them and then letting partly go of them. Read the section about modes of using the attention: such can be seen from the movements.)
Take care in running in uneven terrain in the nature that you watch where you are about to step. That cooperation of the eyes and of your feet is so natural for humans that it brings a feeling of satisfaction in addition to safeguarding your ankles. 
You ought to tense your ankles almost unmoving when your foot is about to touch the ground,
then listen to your feet to hear
where they touch the solid ground
-	there may be a stick or a stone somewhere under your foot, affecting your balance, and that balance point may be changing during the step -
then just push forward (still listening to your foot) based on that solid point, 
being ready to tense your ankle a lot 
in order to avoid large unguided twists of it.
Let your ankles rest in relaxation when the feet are up in the air. The ankles are reactive parts of the body, and for a good reason!

The movements reflect our thoughts: if we want to move freely, we need to be able to act freely. That means that we must always choose courses of action that lead the world toward good, toward a healthy world. So we have a safe world however far we go to that direction. So we get a free movement that way too, via the way that our thoughts are reflected in our gestures and via the body analogy to our intentions. So raise athletes to be moral too, to support world peace etc. in a well understood way, which is born out of their own thoughts and feelings and not only from following others.

My body, senses and feelings are the most precious things in the world to me!

…
The words are insufficient to describe the reality. The most important matters can be only experienced, felt. Maybe that's why this central part of my text is quite unsuccessful in communicating the major importance of these matters.

MOTION

Motion
* is healthy
* keeps one happy
* makes one stronger in also other activities 
and better able to work
* is natural for human beings, is a basic thing in life and should not be forgotten
* brings the level of experience to a more central position in life - like it should be
* strengthens the connection with the body
* is good emotionally and socially
* makes one look better
* makes one move in healthier ways
* increases one's sense of balance
* offers a good analogy of healthier ways of doing
* offers sensed models for thinking
* by taking anther person as a model for ourselves in some physical task, teaches us to better understand others and the similarities and differences between people and how they affect things
* teaches reactivity and activates senses
* is fun and rewarding
* brings a better endurance in everything via being physically fit

FUTURISTIC DREAMS

"Know the male (= tools, artificialities),
yet keep to the female (= the nature, naturality)"
The 2000 years old Chinese classic Tao-te-ching

The futuristic dreams of athletic people living in the middle of a vast amount of technology may have some truth in them but the emotional attachment and the ways of perception of those super  people are typically described all wrong: in order to gain the best intelligence, emotional attachment has to be toward nature and the ways of perception and living have to be based on the nature perception and natural ways of living. The reason for this is that the ways of functioning of humans are based on the natural ways of functioning.
 The sense of sight supports the thinking ability: 
in the most effective thinking in especially technical and scientifical things we imagine the things as a holistic picture in our mind and notice from that picture how things are, 
so the enormous amount of technical kind of details and structured wholes in a nature landscape can train us for thinking work! City landscapes do not offer that kind of practise unless the emotional attachment and sense of beauty guide us toward looking at trees, plant decorations, pet animals and birds with their enormous amount of variation and technical kind of details.
Please build realistical dreams, which help to handle the technology also in these ways, which are connected to the natural intelligence.

THE SENSES AND THINKING

The human ability to think was created by the natural evolution in a nature environment where people lived a life that is natural for human beings.

If the senses and the thinking of human beings form a whole, like is very probable from the point of view of natural selection,
(Why would a human being form a whole if one thinks from the point of view of the natural selection? The natural selection optimised also the wholes: it optimised everything that matters in practise. It optimised in the sense that from those building blocks that exist there is no other better option.)
Then natural sensory stimuli support the ability to think - to think all kinds of things, also abstract ones.

In the natural living environment of humans there was all the time natural sensory perceptions of natural shapes, structures, colours and regularities, so that is what human thinking is adapted to.

LESS NATURAL STIMULI BRINGS LESS INTELLIGENCE

If human in a natural environment is adapted to the situation that the sensory perceptions support thinking, then the town environment with too few and too block like sensory perceptions probably disturbs thinking and makes thinking's structure like the environment: too block like and linguistic. Landscape like holistic view and sense of naturality, maybe also the sense of balance are emphasized too little!

The ways that people notice things are based on the natural ways of perception.

As a helping aid to this would be the following:
* RECREATION IN NATURE
* NATURE LANDSCAPES
* NATURE PICTURES on walls
* PLANTS, PARKS and so on
* VALUING NATURAL SENSORY STIMULUS

One should also protect untouched nature 
and wildlife.

(I have a somewhat poor memory, so the healthy natural sensed models are unusually important to me. As far as I know they are important also to others but it isn't so easy to notice: one must pay attention to the average sensory stimuli to understand into which direction the sensed models affect thinking, but one should aim at emphasising mainly, almost solely the sensory perceptions of nature.)

Increasing intelligence

INCREASING INTELLIGENCE IN OBJECTIVE THINKING EASILY AND EFFICIENTLY WITHOUT SCHOOLING: Imagine a nature landscape in the background as you think.
A large part of efficient objective thinking is thinking in pictures. One imagines the thing to think about as a picture in one's mind.
In this nature picture method one compares the structures in the thoughr thing to the structures of a nature landscape with similar looking features. The ability of humans to observe nature landscapes is great: the amount of seen information in a nature landscape is enermous compared to the usual complexity of thoughts, so that via this method there is almost no limit to the complexity of thoughts that you can think. Just remember to form a holistic view of the whole, so that you are sure to get the main points right! Imagine as closely as you can what the things really are like - not in your imagination only but in the reality.
Scientifical thinking you get with a slowly gliding movement of the eyes along the regularities of the surface. That is like the slow description of scientifical detail in a thing to think about in one's mind while one forms a holistic picture of the whole thing. Technical thinking also uses gliding eyes with an even smaller focus and slower movement. Form the holistic view your self, so you get really good thinking.

I would like to hear people's experiences of trying to use this method.

One could think that since loving the nature and the arts gives an increased capacity, that would serve as nature's own way of putting the healthy ones with right values into power in the world - or at least of giving the right values some more influence in the world, like is dearly needed from the points of view of health, happiness and safety. True rationality means true emotionality too.

ARTS INCREASE INTELLIGENCE

Also the arts increase intelligence substantially: atmospheres are complex landscapes with structure and with the signifigance of each thing taken into account from the point of view of human life. So atmospheres are a very natural and effective form of good holistic thinking.
The increase in emotional intelligence that arts give helps to get the roles of things right in life and in the world at large: art teaches philosophy.

DEVELOPING INTELLIGENCE

”I remember my experience: like this I have experienced. (So one forms a good rich picture of how things are.) And I watch the scene with my eyes in order to get an idea of the situation, even exact details but firstly and foremostly a holistic view of how things are. (So one gets the picture to an objective form.)”

How to be objective and with feelings at the same time: One can be objective and instead of thinking by words, think by referring to one's own practical experience of the world. Like: this is a plant and this and this and that isn't, that's just a part of a plant. Likewise can one refer to feelings: such and such feelings like this and like that... Our feelings are a part of our natural way to observe the world, so if wee just find the right way to be with them , they do not obstruct objectivity at all.

HOW NATURAL SENSORY STIMULUS SUPPORTS THINKING

Use a way of looking, which covers the whole nature landscape with the focus of the eyes gliding over the surface following its regularities. The nature landscape corresponds to a holistic view and the gliding of the focus to logical deduction. Technical thinking corresponds very slow movement of a very small focus, scientifical a little bit faster movement with a wider focus. Just picture the thing in question in your mind as one single picture, holistic view, with the accuracy that you know it for sure. (There might be mist somewhere obstructing your sense of sight, or you might need to use your imagination to get the whole landscape to one picture since it isn't all in sight at the same time - just such instinctual landscape is what I refer to: it is very objective and practical: the way that you know your environment without looking, such is a holistic view of the environment.)

ATMOSPHERES GIVE A HUNDREDFOLD ABILITY IN TECHNICAL SKILL

This way one can increase one's effectiveness in technical things to maybe a hundred fold or even more: it is a landscape consisting of technical details plus an understanding instead of a single not so well understood detail!
For most people it is tough to be technical all the time: it is too unnatural and even destructive in its one-eyedness. So one should use some other way to survive through technical things. A landscape like holistic view of the situation is such. One can look at its details just the way that one looks at things when doing handicrafts.
One can also translate technical kind of things to the language of atmospheres. An atmosphere gives a holistic view with structure. A slight alteration of that structure, even if it is technical, gives a slight difference in the atmosphere. So if one is sensitive to atmospheres, like most women are, one can learn to be very efficient in technical kind of thinking. That way natural is superior to artificial. 
The good side of atmospheres is that they describe not only the structure but also its meaningfulness to human life. Whatever is important, is strongly emphasised in the atmosphere and easy to notice.

WOMEN ARE MORE INTELLIGENT THAN MEN

Men's way, described by a man is the scientifical method: to take into account only certain things: those which are connected to the thing in question. Women too use something like the scientifical method. In women's opinion the point of view of men is too elementary, too restricted, too much like a beginner's view. That's why women take into account many more things, for example a ten to hundredfold amount of things. So in a sense women do not stick to the subject in the eyes of men since men's thinking ability isn't enough to understand the whole thing but only a certain simple line of thought about the subject. On the other hand, women stick to the subject better than men, understand more deeply what the things are about, make the most essential remarks from the points of view of practise and theory from the point of view of proper thinking and think clearly more objectively than men do. The strengths of women are typically different from the strengths of men, so even skilled men can make typical men's mistakes and errors, that's why the opinions of skilled men and stupid women agree only a part of the time.
This is explained partly by women using the atmospheres as a way to conceive things while men use almost no atmospheres at all in their deductions.
Would it help if one would add some arts education to the military service: a painting class or the like to increase men's understanding of atmospheres and consequently of warfare and life?

My point of view is that the main difference between women and men is cultural, stemming from the effect of the military service on men and the effect of children upbringing on women. 

Children need to grow up to healthy adults, 
that is good for the country 
and that's why women's values reflect many things which are important to all humans, important to fully functioning.

TECHNICAL PRACTISE

Count the number of technical kind of details (straight lines, pieces of circles, changes in curvature, angles,...) in a nature landscape: it is enormous, almost astronomical! Still one can with practise conceive correctly a whole nature landscape at one long glance with its structures and substructures. Such an ability can give practise for mathematical kind of thinking, and make some of its parts manyfold in pace. Just imagine the thoughts as pictures in your mind and look at them like our naturally look at nature. So if you are an engineer or otherwise needing technical kind of information in your work or in your life, value nature photographs on walls, trees, plants for decoration, pets and recreation in nature. An emotional attachment to these would be good to have too since it makes us build on the right things.

THE BUDDHIST NON-GRASPING ATTITUDE GIVES A BETTER CAPACITY

The Buddhist nongrasping attitude: mark in your picture of the world, in your understanding,
 living your life more important than your preconceptions about how to live your life best. 

So with every failure, you do not grasp unwisely the failure but instead what you can get from the situation by living. 
And with every success you do not get fixed to some theory perspective far from practise in which you do well, but live your life instead with a full heart.

AIM AT SUCCESS

The military service has a negative effect on the intelligence of men. One reason for that is that many men think that their aim in war is to cause destruction. So a part of their identity is of the style of destruction, which in anything else is equal to failure. So they aim at failure when they search for their at least somewhat army like style in order to look manly.
One should rethink the idea in the military service. The idea is to defend good, to aim at good life in good living conditions for all fairly. That rhymes with success in other areas of life and should so make men more intelligent than they have this far usually been.

THE GENERATION GAP

Peace time increases intelligence because the given answers rhyme with success.
The present generation is theoretically more intelligent than the previous, but the bosses tend to be from the previous generation, so all get intelligently too little demanding work, too stupidly guided and too narrow and so they get tired and do not feel as well as the previous generation which still cannot understand the possibility for doing more demanding work. Consequently there is too little freedom for the younger generation.

ATTENTION IS IMPORTANT

A good way of using attention in thinking is to go with each pleasant sensation, ah!, since the pleasant sensations and nice feelings are your guide to better functioning. They make you open yourself to life, while doing things against your likings makes you stiff and unreactive, to kind of shut your senses to life - consequently you notice nothing much of worth in thinking either.
The positive feelings give a direction to your life: these things I want to my life. See what you feel about and why, mark those things important to you. See how similar things are important also to others. So you gain a positive holistic view of the world with a good sensitive attention, like is best for your thinking. The positive things are something to build upon, while the negative things are problems to overcome by the force of all the positive things. So do not start from problems, start from the answers! That way you will have tools to handle the difficulties, when you run into them.

HOW TO THINK OF EVERYTHING AT ONCE: USE YOUR NATURAL HOLISTIC VIEW OF THE WORLD, in other words: MAKE A MAP

Think the following way: make a map in your mind: ”Here live I, here I work, here is the shop that I visit daily, here are the homes of my friends, here is the river, here the high houses across the river, here live my grandparents etc.” So you build a map of the whole world in your mind with all the things that you know placed in it at their right places. 
You can make personal markings at the same time, like: this is my home, it is important to me. In fact, your feelings make automatically such objective markings for you. 
You can place the past years since your birth and even before that as a descending line underground and the future in the air for example.

You can place each person to her/his home and then make additional pictures: here are all the participants of a course on the course, here are they grouped according to personality, here are they grouped according to friendhips, etc. (These are natural divisions in the world.) Connect the pictures to each other by lines which mark each person as the same as in the other picture. You can also make a separate picture for each individual, like the one about yourself.

You can add the scientifical picture of the world: taking a very close look at anything you can see the atoms and molecules, cells etc. Thinking of human behaviour, you can notice that humans are animals, have instincts feelings and an understanding: a picture of the world. Thinking about the society, you can see the behaviour and views of your closest ones and via them understand also the others. (Read the text Governing a very large group.)

HANDLING A LARGE WHOLE LIKE THE WHOLE WORLD

Build a single picture in your mind, fit everything to that single picture in its right place and right proportions, make the picture like one that one can experience with one's eyes, ears, body and feelings so you get into use your normal capacity to live in the world. That's one reason why it is good to live fully, senses open, mind and heart together: that's what gives, via getting practice on all areas of life, you a bigger capacity and a more rewarding life.

HOW TO HANDLE MANY IDEAS AT THE SAME TIME IN THINKING

Make a landscape which includes all the things. Start from your everyday picture of the world. Then just add the thought of things to it with a different instantaneous colour to make it easy to notice which were the things that you needed to think about and to see at once which were the places of them in the world. Then just use common sense in how to handle each kind of thing and what is the role of them in the world and so in thinking too.

THE ORGANIZATION OF MEMORY

Use a good single picture of the whole with sizes right,
concrete fact associations
and zooming

THE BODY, MOTION AND THE USE OF TOOLS

"Without leaving home
you can open your heart to the world."
The 2000 years old Chinese classic Tao-te-ching

There are also other natural things that a human being needs to develop into a fully functioning adult with a good understanding of the world. Like the body and its functioning, motion, health, balance, the use of tools and so on.
All these have analogies in the world. All these have things have been too much forgotten on this age when people live in too unnatural living conditions and get too little exercise in these things that are natural to all human beings. So their ability to judge things connected to the proper use of tools, balancing the whole and the importance of good health and naturality in everything, is far too small compared to what would be natural for human beings. So systems, things that people do, get out of hand just in these respects.

That means that we should make a change in the living conditions of human beings and in our values toward more natural, and make this change all over the world.

ONE WAY HOW THE BODY COORDINATION SUPPORTS THINKING

Read the text Body analogy and a holistic view.
Objective thinking with a holistic view uses a landscape like view of how things are. Thinking is watching that landscape and making changes to it if needed, so the extremely quick automatical view of where is each thing and how to reach each place can be used to reach those memory places and to arrange them.
In following one's own body, one gets all the time practise in handling large systems. Use the analogy to your body: when do you feel at ease, when is the base steady, when is it too narrow, when are you using a tool, when are you using a partial perspective end when a holistic one,...
For example: in emptying water from a boat, I am using a partial perspective because I am using a tool in order to attain a goal, the empty boat. The goal that I am having is also a tool in getting the boat ready to go. Of rowing and paddling on the lake (enjoying the summer), I use a holistic view. I can also use a partial holistic view of the tool: of emptying the boat.

SUMMARY

"The master doesn't think about his actions
they flow from the core of his being.
She holds nothing back from life"
The 2000 years old Chinese classic Tao-te-ching

The thinking capacity of a human being forms a picture of what the world is like. The other functions like senses, doing practical things and moving, do their part in supporting the thinking capacity, giving analogies for memory and thinking, and giving practise in those.

NATURAL WAYS OF SEEING THINGS

"The great way is easy.
Yet people prefer side paths.
Be aware when things are out of balance.
Stay centred within the Tao."
The 2000 years old Chinese classic Tao-te-ching

Nature landscapes, handicrafts and sports.
Use the ways of seeing of these also in abstract thinking.
That way you reach the way that you truly think.

You can make objective observations of any scene
by looking at it like as if it were a nature landscape.

Communication, thinking and action

Thinking and communication

A REALLY GOOD TALKER
Learning from others and
living in a society

If we think of how a really good talker talks,
creating a scene of large meaningful things for the audience,
talking of facts that concern life and not just theory,
referring to both feelings and motivation,
and to the practical reality,
 understanding of the world,
what needs to be done, why 
and how we get it done.

They speak  the language of good thinking,
that is natural for humans,
that is a natural part of how human societies work
and how humans think and
arrange things together as larger groups.

That kind of thinking forms a picture of the world
that handles also the questions about 
how things are
from the human point of view: emotions.

And emotions help 
to handle large scale things, too,
to take care of the future.

That is one of the points of view that we long for
when we are about to listen to a good speech or a deep thought.
Thoughts that persons have thought of by themselves,
in ways that have to do with the life in practise
and not with the written word so much
(if at all with the written, unnatural form of language,
that is the cause of an enormous amount of misunderstanding
of what the human thinking is like,
especially what good and natural human thinking is like).

This is probably what thinkers dream of,
what they long for,
what they search for from their realms of knowledge that are stored in the written form, but do not usually find:
It is a new level of structure to thinking,
a natural one that makes things understandable,
communicable easily,
meaningful from the human perspective
and from the perspective of the world at large, all humans as a group.

In objective fact discussions:
What are the concrete facts?
What do those mean to & in one's own life?
What do those mean to the society at large?
What exactly is our emotional reaction to such things like?
Why just such?  ->  Analyse the thing; How to handle it!

EVERYDAY LANGUAGE

"True mastery can be gained
by letting things go their own way.
It can't be gained by interfering."
The 2000 years old Chinese classic Tao-te-ching

WHAT IS GOOD QUALITY COMMUNICATION STYLE
OF OBJECTIVE FACT DISCUSSION LIKE?

Clear, easily understandable for the listener. Discussing about the essential things and not just technical details of expression, which have nothing to do with the subject itself.

Ordinary everyday talk is ideal to that:
the most natural way for human beings to communicate,
very expressive, easy to understand,
efficient in thinking - much more efficient than technical vocabulary,
which is often computational like to use and does not create any new ideas.

Natural communication is 
near our natural ways of thinking
and our natural motivational ground
and so it uses our thinking 
capacity to the fullest.

With technical language like in many professions,
one creates just one learned thought structure,
which is the same to all as far as it is correct but does not create anything new,
is largely fruitless in a way.
With natural language instead,
one gets a communication between the ordinary pictures of the world
and the complexity of them, the real understanding of oneself and others.

Practical pictures of the world
 are an efficient way of thinking,
which takes into account everything 
that the individual knows.

In thinking it is essential to choose concepts and words well.
Ordinary everyday language has been created by an evolution of many many generations and is a good means to communicate, from many points of view.
The words should faithfully describe 
the world as it is,
and one's own understanding of the world.

WRITTEN LANGUAGE

"If you look to others for fulfilment,
you will never truly be fulfilled."
The 2000 years old Chinese classic Tao-te-ching

Written language is a means to remember something. It is not chosen because of being a good base for thinking. On the contrary: it loses many shades and types of meaning from the language, from the natural language (song and gestures and so on!) which is a natural and ideal communicational base for really good natural thinking of all kinds, together with natural sensory stimulus and natural life.

THINKING FORMS A WHOLE

"True wisdom seems foolish
(when watched from a less well understanding perspective)."
The 2000 years old Chinese classic Tao-te-ching

The ability of humans to think was created by the natural evolution
to function together with feelings, instincts, the body, the senses  and so on.
Together with these the thinking ability of humans
guides us humans in the world correctly,
as well as possible,
at the practical level, in the long term and in the short term.
But without these natural parts of the unified whole called a human being,
i.e. without the feelings, instincts and so on affecting,
the thinking of humans is somewhat biased to the other direction:
away from feelings;

and so the end result is not at all as good
as that of a whole human being acting according to one's instincts.

NATURAL SOCIAL LIFE IS IMPORTANT

"True art seems artless
(so enormously complex and natural,
errorless and effortlessly effective, it is)."
The 2000 years old Chinese classic Tao-te-ching

If one discusses with other persons
from other professions with different kinds of backgrounds,
one learns easily new points of view,
gets inspirating new ideas even from very ordinary communication
and from other peoples' experience
even if they do not know much about the subject in question or are stupid. 

FEELINGS AND PRACTICAL ACTION

"True straightness seems crooked
(since it can handle all sides of things)."
The 2000 years old Chinese classic Tao-te-ching

Human action is interconnected with feelings and understanding. So feelings in your picture of the world are very important. They often determine what the level of practise will be like. So true understanding demands feelings too. For that to succeed it is good to value feelings, so one learns emotional intelligence which makes it easier to handle things also emotionally and to take emotions into account objectively.

TOWARD NATURAL COMMUNICATION AND MUSIC

Adding a description of ways of doing 
to a fact discussion.
Getting rid of the harmful side effects 
of being used to written language,
getting rid of the flattening of 
the use of language 
because the written form 
doesn't contain all shades of meaning

The fact that all people like music,
means that something like music 
is a natural part of human life
and is useful in some way, as an aid in survival,
in living and in the functioning of a society.

Music is connected to feelings, atmospheres, 
to rhythm, ways of doing, what something feels like, to the level of experience and to one's thoughts.

Tones of voice in normal everyday speech and ways of speech also reflect these kinds of things.

We are by nature interested in hearing other persons' thoughts, knowing their feelings and hearing about their experience in life.
In thoughts we are usually interested in things that touch our own life in practise,
what it feels like to do something. Which things matter in life and how.
Our feelings when we talk about such subjects,
reflect how important these things are to us on the practical level, in our experience.
By hearing from others about their life, their experience, we can learn things that
 matter in our own lives.

The level of facts is not the only thing that matters, if we want to do something.
We want to hear also, what it is like to do such things. Does one get tired easily?
Is it motivating, and in which respects,
 how and why?!!
If we express our emotions
 by our tone of voice, gestures and so on, while we talk, we communicate information of these other kinds to others.

We are all human beings and share many similar things in ways  that we do or can do things.
So also things that have to do with
 the fact that we are human beings, 
are often objective in their own way.

So atmospheres, feelings and the like
should get enough room in objective discussions.
Only so we communicate all the information we need
if we want to discuss something objectively:

MUSIC OF SOCIAL LIFE

Music maybe corresponds to a natural form of social perception, in which one sees and senses empathizingly the emotions and atmospheres in the state of the body of another person and of one's own body.

Each emotional posture corresponds to a tone of voice, each movement to a rhythm (action) with a tune (emotions), and all movements are born out of emotional reactions, motivation of some kind
or are expressions of an emotional kind of state of mind, i.e. expressions of the human functioning.

The emotions and action being intertwined, 
a web of life.
The human side of action and the concrete easily perceived practical action.
The functioning of humans 
and the things done.

An ever changing social situation,
a situation of a group in action
and the situation of one's own life.

(See these as divisions with which to perceive the practical reality.)

THE GREAT SONG OF LIFE

All people love music. That means that something like music is a part of the human nature.
Some few know how to compose music. They see or hear the life as music. We ourselves when we dance can see the connection of movement and music and sometimes when listening to music the connection of music and feelings – but the other way than those who compose music.
Dance is important: the body is the central part of a human being, via it we live, regardless of how intellectual or spiritual we are. Via the gesture langauge we express what we feel and communicate with others, via the body we do everything that we do. Our state of mind is reflected to how we keep our body and how we move.
When one is relaxed and understands the connection of the body and mind, one can see the body as music of life: our whole life is reflected in our body, in its gestures, and the body sings as sensations in  our senses – as sensations which we can express by voice. The tones of voice express different kinds of states of mind. So each feeling or sensation is like a sound, like music which we can hear.  And from the song of life we can choose a partial theme to be communicated by a song: a melody.

The song of life in us is what life is to us. 
It is in other words what we observe, 
what we experience. 
The body just expresses it as music.

The songs of life of other people we can hear if we emphatise completely RELAXEDLY with their body like is usual in sports hobbies.
Ordinary music pales from the road of this natural stimulus. The whole living world becomes an enermous panorama of music, the great song of life.

ART, NATURAL COMMUNICATION AND THINKING
If we remember something well,
it is the things that touch us, are important in our lives – of which we need lots of information to survive well in our life.
And as all human beings are alike in many, many respects (and because we are pack animals), that kind of things interest us also 
in the lives of others.

(So we need lots of ability to compare 
our own life to those of others.
Read my texts about my picture of humans in the section about sex: they offer such a comparison.)

So those things are ones that we like to hear about, what art consist of,
what really good communication consists of, and
what is the ideal base for thinking, created by the natural evolution toward as perfect thinking as possible: sensory perceptions (sure knowledge)
together with an idea of how important those things in our life are to us as feeling and thinking creatures, in practise, and the role each thing has in the whole,
and in which ways it affects our life at the level of experience.

Art, naturality, things that touch us, noticing the essential and communicating it,
thinking clearly.

Natural emotional motivation supports natural functioning of the individual and of the pack, which leads to a better survival in life, 
says the theory of evolution.

UNIFIEDNESS OF HUMAN FUNCTIONING AND OF THE FUNCTIONING OF HUMAN GROUPS IN "SONGS"

About my interest in shamanism and its connection to unified ways of doing things:
communication:
song and sound
sound and hearing
hearing and the sense of direction, rhythm, 
ways of doing
and what is done
and the idea in doing
the body connecting all these to the sources and to the recipients:
idea, intentionality and action
intentionality, emotions and picture of the world
entities in the world and natural reactions to them

language to shamanistic intentionality:
entities in the world and intentionality
entities, intentional action and expression
intentional action includes the picture of the world, emotions and the body, the level of practise

LEARNING THE GREAT SONG OF LIFE

Learning the great song of life: I have only a slight grasp of it but I have a live interest in dance and world music and in the connection of the mind and the body (natural communication, emotional expression, gesture language, buddhism, chakras etc.) and in the philosophy/wisdom of life.
It might be that composing is a skill that just about everybody could learn if we just had our natural capacity and natural ways of learning - which we most unfortunately do not nowadays have.
Relaxedness is a major prequisite for emphaty and consequently for sensing the song of life in the bodies of others and even in one's own body. So practise sports too. Meditation in motion might be connected to this too - I learned it from practising Japanese sports that one concentrates well into.
There is something easy in the song of life too: the low drum beats corresponding to the heavy movement of the feet like in African music and dance, and the high tones corresponding to the head, to the sense of sight, to the sense of beauty and to ideals. The rythm of the song of the body in action or in being social and experiencing life is quicker than the pace of feelings usually described in western songs. The "ding dang dong" of the South-East Asian music described the sifts of relaxed attention in a warm climate, of the sense of sight, if I have understood right. So listening and dancing to world music might increase one's musical social understanding about the connection of voice and the state of the mind, body and feelings.
Sincere expression might have something to do with this skill too: how could one otherwise learn natural expression and the tones connected to it: the natural way that our experience is a song?!

It seems that the song of life fits well together with my model "healthy versus broken" and a way of life according to feelings and instincts:
 the healthy parts sing, 
the broken parts do not, 
and the melody of the song is that of the of functioning according to humans' natural ways of functioning. If one has a grasp of the flow of life in one's own veins, one can see the flow of life also in others, so healthy happy ways of living according to the nature of humans are the ground for the song of life.

Read John Steinbeck's short story the Pearl: 
the song of the family on it.

Sensing the song of life in others is the healthy form of social perception, so normal healthy social life in a friendly atmosphere is important for learning it.

The song of life is connected to the usual kind of social perception via one's own very relaxed body of the body of the others. There just seems to be some component lacking, so that what is seen doesn't necessarily form a sound. Maybe imagining a singer in the radio as seen via the sound would help to recognise how the sound connects to the state of mind. Or then dancing - or what, I do not know. But it should be possible quite easily for those who already have the correct natural kind of social perception. Maybe listening to tones of voice, how they connect to the state of mind and consequently to the state of the body would be needed too.

The BASE OF THE GREAT SONG OF LIFE

So, the great song of life correcsponds to the usual Finnish European extremely compassionate way of seeing and sensing via one's own body the states of mind of the other one in her/his own body. These social sensations is what the song of life in others consists of. It is just that we do not always translate them to a "heard" song.
And how to reach this type of social relationships? An easy advice is to follow the rule "Live and let others live." and to demand it also from others. In addition one should be compassionate and carry responsibility about all important matters, whether one's own, those of others or of the large scale.

SENSING THE BODY AS MUSIC
This skill may be born out of social life via the gesture language and emphaty and out of an interest in non-erotical (!! - otherwise one's attention is diverted) performing dance which may express all kinds of things in human life, also erotical attractiveness but not in the way of being a sexual affair like pair dance often is, i.e. out of an interest in dance expression.

A basic guide for 
making a song of life of your sensations:

In the atmospheres 
of your sensations of life:

Dark greyish black 
or down-to-earth atmosphere      
= a low note

Light or reddish atmosphere 
or high hopes              
= a high note

The rhythm of the song, 
the melody, comes from the varying of the sensations across time.

LIFE IS A SONG

It is our nature to see life as a song, as a great panorama of music. That's why we love music: its sound is in our nature, the natural stimuli that we used to hear all the time.
In the natural life in a natural environment a long time ago we were immersed in beauty, much like we can admire the sight of nature even nowadays. But then, a long time ago, it was every side of our life that was so beautiful.
Like with the fracturelessness of nature, beauty is a charachteristic of full health. And since the healthies is the most well functioning, the natural world full of the beauty of full health is the source of miracles in the eyes of us who are used to the fractured world with all the artificialities. The untouched human nature is so well functioning in every respect that it looks miraculous in our eyes. So it is also with our perception of life as a song: it is natural perception about the essentails of human life, about the well funcrtioning and healthy and healthily beautiful in our lives.
Whenever we use a machine and it makes a KRAAH sound, we know that we have made something wrong. It is the same with humans. And when our senses sing, we know that we have done everything right!

NATURAL SONG AND DANCE

Dance is at the core of being.
Life Is A Song

The best way for objective thinking is to think by atmospheres. They unify a pictorial objective holistic view with the wisdom of feelings.
Each observation is a sensation, an atmosphere tone. The light coloured atmosphre tones we can express by high notes. The darker and more down-to-earth atmospheres we can express as low notes.
Thus our observations form a song.

When we act, we have an emotional motivation for it. That motivation is a melody.
And action according to it is dance.
This dance appears to be dance in its basic form.

To live! 
Means to sense, to react and to act in the world, in life! Thus natural music, the song of our life and the natural dance of natural action
are at the core of what it means to be a human!

WORK EFFICIENCY AND LIKINGS

Please read section II about the hard rationality in following feelings!

I have found out that 
whatever I do according to my likings, 
it increases my work efficiency in everything. 
Some research in this subject could make a happier life for everybody.

Feelings tell of needs of the individual, 
society and the environment. 
By fulfilling needs we
 increase the working ability. 
Our nature is often wiser than our rationality. Our social needs, needs of the society, 
are a part of the rationality of action and motivation and meeting them 
increases the efficiency of work 
from the point of view of the society and 
also from the point of view of the individual work 
to be done, by the amount affected by 
the motivation and the increase in rationality.

An example:
Engineering work etc.
We use sensory analogies in our thinking. The amount of technical kind of details in a nature landscape is astronomical, so an enjoyment of nature can prepare us fro technical kind of work. And atmospheres are landscapes with a structure and us such useful practise for technical kind of work. Atmosphere analogies give structural analogies, so arts can be useful to an engineer or the like.

In doing enjoyable things we learn better ways of doing things and that affects our working efficiency positively.

CAPACITY AND STRUCTURAL ANALOGS

This ability to benefit from my likings may be connected to my excellent moral (which makes the connections with the large scale right) and my ability to make analogies to and from the sense of sight from anything (which corrects the connections between the different areas of life). 

I observe a structure and my ability to handle structures increases in everything. I also learn new better balances which increases my working ability and makes my style better for work. 

If I do something against my likings, 
I catch bad habits and 
that makes my work efficiency less.

The more I do different things, 
the better my capacity is in each of them!

I have the ability to use structure analogies from one thing to another of an entirely different kind. 
So I learn all the time new ways of doing. 

The structure analogies to the sense of sight, to the sense of healthy wholes and to the sense of structures (atmospheres!) are a key to this ability.

Read the text A Japanese saying.

SOCIAL LIFE, HEALTH AND OPTIMISING

(Intelligent optimising leads toward 
a healthy social life:)
Also in the human social groups it is good for their functioning if all the biological wholes are unbroken, healthy and natural which means: according to instincts, moral, common sense, honesty, fair play, healthy mind and spirit, etc.

One must start from a picture of what 
a completely healthy and honest and fair natural human society is like: 
a human relationship is a part of it. 
And compare the other options to that only afterwards. Otherwise one tends to obscure the view of the whole, or to lie to oneself because of one's already existing habits and choices of life. But the fact remains that the most natural is the most efficient and the best choice in many respects.

So one cannot manipulate people (manipulation is artificial, evil: breaking behaviour or behaviour which doesn't create natural healthy both-sided bonding behaviour between people) and so aim at the best functioning or best intelligence.

Instead one gains the best social support by being a good natural healthy kind of social relationship, and best understanding of behaviour and characters by emphasising with one's social environment, by being a good fair emotional deeply touched social relationship to others. Because that is the natural way for the human society to function: it uses the social resources most efficiently to the good of both individuals and of the pack or society, since it is the way that the evolution (or God) optimised us to function.

This may be easier to understand with the help of the already familiar picture: the diagram

The smallest circles in the diagram here are the individuals,
the next biggest level describes the different natural functions (getting food and shelter, sharing wisdom, nurturing children, caring for emotions i.e. for all the living requirements,...) of the human pack
and the biggest level the natural functioning of the whole pack or the whole world.

HUMANS ARE NATURALLY PACK ANIMALS

Why do I need to be touched by the other one,
why do I need to care about the others?
The best allegiancy that is in our nature is all for all fairly, according to true justice and with the spirit of things right. By joining it you get the most support.

You also use instinctually analogs from one area of life to another. If you neglect some nasty thing that you cause to others, you tend to allow sunch structures in the world, also when they come to affect you too, so you will end up neglecting some side of your own good.
If you on the other hand think: this is me, I will not harm myself, this whole, body & mind etc. together that is me, then you will know that it is not good to harm a whole that you are integrately a part of – not like a spy but like a limb is a part of the body.

By being friendly you are in tune with the ways of doing of the other one and see deeper into his or her nature without damaging the other one. If you refuse to bond, you are out of rhythm from the ways of doing of the other one and lose all insight into his or her actions.

ANIMALS MAY BE VERY INTELLIGENT

What I have here deduced about the base of human thinking, should apply also to animals. Living a natural life in nature they may be very intelligent. Even insects with the sense of sight, the ability to move, some social life and probably emotions may have intelligence of the level of an uneducated human. Then the enormous amount of brain cells in human brain would be a consequence of size only and not a reason for better functioning. If not so, I am forced to think that we use even a smaller amount of our capacity than what I have imagined this far.
Abilities that we consider typical for just our own intelligence, the animals appear to have too: atmospheres offer the most efficient way to holistical thinking that I know of. And the work of engineers is based largely on mathematics which is to a very large extend analogous to easy mechanical moving of objects and moving in a seen landscape. And we all agree that insects too may have emotional and social life.
And why we consider fishes stupid, may be because we cannot see their movements well. But other fishes can, so fishes may be very intelligent too.
But this Gaia like intelligence isn’t war like. It does not believe in aggressive solutions against the natural fate of us all. There has been one dominant type of species after another upon the Earth. Such is seen as inevitable. I do not believe in the nature fighting back. I believe more in communication attempts, of a loving kind, because that is the nature of natural wisdom: to see us all as an interconnected cooperating whole – cooperating by nature, social by nature, instinctively emotional and capable of understanding and caring, of being extremely moral by our very nature.
But it may be that in some point via the effect of industrialization the nature will not be able to live longer, and consequently we will not be able to live either, since our life and well being is based on the nature too.
This Gaia like understanding of animals consists of an understanding of the value of harmony and health, of the inevitability of nature’s ways.

SUMMARY OF SECTION I

Evolution is gradual, 
it doesn't happen in jumps. 
What we are now 
is based on what we were long time ago 
in nature.

Human intelligence is based on our natural thinking ability and on our other functions like the memory, the senses and empathy.

Section II

The Rationality of Feelings and Instincts

FOLLOWING LIKINGS 
INCREASES WORK EFFICIENCY

Whatever I do according to my likings increases my work efficiency in everything.
Whatever I do against my likings decreases my work efficiency.

This can be understood the following way:

Feelings were created by the natural evolution to help in survival of the society and the individual. So feelings guide to a direction which is beneficial to the group. In other words they increase effectiveness  in reaching for the goals of the group. So they increase work effectiveness IF the individual is healthily moral, like a good pack animal should.

But how come then our likings typically do not seem to affect work efficiency in any way? Probably most of us lack a natural skill, because my own likings do affect my work efficiency positively. In fact there are two skills affecting this: emotional intelligence, the ability to interprete feelings right according to objective thinking and true naturality, and the ability to make analogies from one type of action to another. 
In emotional intelligence it is important to interprete correctly what the subject, true cause of each feeling is: only then can we understand feelings correctly. In analogies we need to make a sensory analogy to the sense of sight, to create a sense of structures which we can use in every kind of action. This is related to the sense of health and sense of fracturelessness which in turn are, via the use of emphaty in thinking, related to a picture of the body as a whole.

FEELINGS UNDERSTAND

When I just feel 
that things are in a certain way 
(I just look at my picture of the world 
and observe the atmosphere), 
there are typically very strong grounds for those things. I just need to spend some moments thinking what I feel about things 
and why I feel so. 
It is often a somewhat philosophical perspective. 
Like: it is always good if... and on the other hand it is harmful if... So... That's why I feel so.

How to conceive feelings as rational:

1) first the feeling,

2) then attention 
to what caused that feeling,

3) and a rational understanding about the importance
of those things in life.

With each feeling there comes a thought. Learn to notice or to find out what that thought is. Feelings notice things - make your thinking notice those things too!

Mark the things, which you feel strongly about, important in your life, 
important to your own functioning 
and maybe to the functioning of the society and of the world at large.

That is one of the main things that the feelings tell you.

FEELINGS

The natural evolution optimised living beings toward survival and best functioning.
It created also feelings, so the feelings are not a superfluous part.
The feelings are meant to be followed fully. That gives the best functioning.

Follow feelings in a way, which brings the world toward common good.
That's the way that feelings are meant to be followed:
feelings and understanding together 
guiding toward better.

Understanding gives a map and
feelings and instincts 
give directions to go to.

Let your feelings change your life toward better healthier ways of living. That is their task.
A human being without following feelings is in some sense a broken person.

Full functioning demands life completely according to feelings.
Just use a holistic view of the world and of life,
so you will solve most seeming contradictions in that easily and efficiently.

(You cannot let responsible parts of a system get broken, so take good care of yourself! That is one thing that your feelings demand.)

FEELINGS
tell of the needs of humans

The Rationality of Feelings, Likings etc.

Understanding the world that we live in via both the intellect and the emotions
is the natural and wise way to understand things.

Feelings and likings 
tell of our needs.
They tell of our own functioning.

Feelings do not disturb objectivity:

HOW TO BE VERY EMOTIONAL AND OBJECTIVE AT THE SAME TIME

How to be completely emotional and consequently also totally objective:

Follow your feelings fully, giving them enough room.
Pay attention to feelings and atmospheres,
to the landscape that they form.
Use your picture of the world as a map about where you are at each moment in each thing. You can recognize things based on feelings, atmospheres and other features,
using a single picture of the world (like in the sciences), of life (+time and personal experience).
That is all that you need.
You can form partial wholes of things that share the same feature:
the same happening, the same person that you know, the same kind of feeling in your experience, the same important thing in your life,...

Form a holistic view about what you feel and about what the world is like. Take causes and consequences into account and give things their correct emphasis (i.e. what common sense says) according to their size class and importance. Recognizing things as phenomena - compare to the society agreement - helps to find the correct emphasis for each class of things.
This way one can be completely objective in one's actions at the same time as being completely emotional in one's actions.

Do not lock your stomach muscles: it is the point here to be emotional (like a professional singer might be). This way you can be extremely emotional at the same time as objective: a good skill to have in emergencies etc., in all situations where you are overwhelmed by strong emotions.

About handling emergencies:
Your big emotions are what typically rocks the boat, causing nervousness etc.
So You have to first pay attention to what You Feel and only after that as a landscape or important pieces of a landscape all the practical things to notice of each of the things that You Feel so strongly about. You ought to act according to Your strongest Feelings, for example fear by trying to escape or to otherwise prevent catastrophes as efficiently as possible, because that way Your Feelings do not rock the boat, but Feelings just give an emphasis to things: just these things are important just now. Other big Feelings take care that you do not leave other big things unnoticed. A human being can be afraid also for others sake, so ensuring the safety of others ought to go before selfishness which is often thought cenered action. 

OBJECTIVE INTUITION, ATMOSPHERES AND FEELINGS

We store in the form of feelings and atmospheres information
about how well we are doing compared to our goals.

So what our feelings tell, our intuition,
is objective information about the world.

We just need to be factual enough in our associations so that we do not mix things. All our associations have to be classified objectively according to what characteristic causes the association, the likeness. Then we need not be confused about our feelings and atmospheres either.

FEELINGS EMPHASISE IMPORTANCE

So your feelings tell to you your functional state at each moment: are there any obstacles on your way, how big are they compared to your own forces, is the way of doing suited for your skills, capacity, endurance, for your all kinds of functional needs.
The social relationships are part of the base for living, like is food and sleep.
Your own understanding is like a map and an important safety precaution to you against the evilness and stupidity of others. Your understanding, sense of importance about things in life (= in your functioning, in staying fit and healthy and in providing the base for your functioning) attaches you by your feelings to different goals: remember that just those goals are important to your functioning and/or to the functioning of the society. That's why you feel about them: to mark them more important than many other things. Use your understanding to help you to go to the direction which your feelings advice you to go.
Remember to use a holistic view about your life, including the importance of your future and of the demands of living in a society and getting along with ALL the others.

SOCIAL RELATIONSHIPS ARE IMPORTANT

Human relationships are a part of the ground for life. So it is natural that we have strong feelings about them: they affect a lot our functioning and our possibilities in life.

ABOUT THE USEFULNESS OF FEELINGS

Feelings are part of the functioning and understanding of humans.
Feelings take care that we stay in a well-functioning shape.

Here are some of the useful sides of going with feelings:
Love concerns things that we need.
To like means to feel at ease with or even enjoy (=function better at) something.
Joy tells that something is a good way to do things.
(There is something lacking in the things that don't cause joy or enjoyment.)
Depression means that one doesn't know how to function in such a situation.
Beauty tells of the natural goals of humans, especially about what comes to the level of understanding and skill in our picture of the world, at least.
Sorrow is a way to handle a loss, to get adapted.
(Find out new things upon which you can build your life in the lost respects.)
Hate is a way of protecting life against being harmed by the hated things.
Compassion binds helpers to the ones needing help. It is a form of attention, a social bond. It includes the body, the emotions and the understanding plus a social bond.

Human relationships are a part of the ground for human life.
Our social instincts and common sense make us form bonds with other persons.
Each human relation is different, also changing as the time passes and the persons themselves change and their situations of life change. Varied like the nature, never twice the same. There are several types of bonds; figure out: 1. which things bind you together, 2. in which things are you each trustworthy and 3. in which are you not. These areas include at least: honesty, well-functioning, theory, practise, emotions, customs etc.

Sexual attraction toward someone is often aiming at some better position at life: learning a new skill (admiring someone), learning a better way of living (feeling attraction also physically) or (being handsome enough=) in an unusually strong social position when one is next to the other person.
Forming a bond (being soulmates): sharing the same values and largely the same picture of the world and the same way of life aimed at.

Thinking cannot replace feelings. But if one goes naturally with feelings, it often brings such a clear thorough perception about those things that feelings concern, and about their importance in life, that is much better understanding that by any unemotional thinking.

Womens' Wisdom
a mechanical model for those who do not understand otherwise

Women are bought up to value feelings. Most women unsderstand why feelings are valuable but all do not. Especially all men do not understand it. So here is an easy mechanical model for translating emotional truths to the languages of common sense, science and technical thinking.
Women are also bought up to take all points of view into account. So while men neglect often too much the views of women, women take fully into account what men say and think. But women end up in different kind of answers because women understand more about the language of feelings and atmospheres: more truths to take into account. So womens' views may be well thought of also from the point of view of manly values and goals.

FEELINGS ARE PRODUCTS OF THE NATURAL EVOLUTION

We are products of the natural evolution. Our needs help us to stay fit and our feelings help us to answer our needs.
Our functioning is largely based on social things. We are pack animals. That's why we feel strongly about social things: they affect a lot our chances in life.
We are also adabted to a certain kind of living environment: to the nature. Just such environment makes us function best. That's why we feel strongly about the nature and the weather.
We are also adabted to certain kind of ways of living and to a certain kind of functioning of the human groups that we belong to. So we feel strongly about questions which have to do with the ways of doing things: do those cause us enjoyment (=suit us well) or hurt us?

LOVE

When I say "love", I mean 
health and full functioning 
with all the needs answered 
from the point of view of life. 
Love is a charachteristic of 
a completely healthy system.

Answering needs 
makes the whole function well: that's why needs exist, 
that's what is meant by needs.

BEAUTY

Beauty is a sense of what to look and how to look. Beauty makes us dream of a better life in a better world which is just about inside our reach: 
just copy from the model 
like your sense of beauty and structures, your wisdom of life and good moral command you to do.

FRACTURELESSNESS

A healthy fractureless unified harmonical whole functions as well as possible to get any whole to function. Breaks in the harmony disturb functioning. So the healthy natural world in harmony and with love all over is the strongest possible way to arrange things. Love is a mark of the fact that the system functions healthily well together, is the strongest imaginable.

MORAL
Women are also bought up to be moral. That too is good for the functioning of the human groups.

Human values help to answer human needs. So they quarantee that humans stay healthy and well functioning.

Carrying responsibility
Carrying resposibility about the whole and other important matters of lives
is essential in getting things well for all fairly. So one gets the strongest and wisest group.

FEELINGS (How feelings make sense)

Feelings and the level of beauty tell of the functioning of the parts of the system.

Feelings tell information which is relevant also from the purely mechanical point of view and so valuable also in harsh competition whether militaristic, economical, intellectual or evolutionary.

Feelings tell our functional state against a background of normal situation which is described by our thinking and habitual feelings.
* well functioning
* longing for better living conditions
* obstacles or friction on the way
* the ground of life: in social things, in food, in future safety,
in natural living conditions and natural kind of life, etc.

This doesn't make life mechanical, life in itself is valuable! It just makes feelings rational, telling mechanical kind of information about human functioning.

Feelings tell of needs:
* needs of the individual
* needs of the group
* needs of the environment

Fulfilling needs safeguards good health:
* health of the individual
* health of the society
* health of the environment

RATIONALITY OF FEELINGS

For those who do not see feelings and atmospheres as rational: compare easiness versus uneasiness of doing and being. Notice that these tell how easy it is to get one's needs answered, which determines how good the conditions are for functioning and how much strength there is left for other functions.

Joy versus sorrow: 
getting or losing.
Love versus hate: 
how beneficial/harmful the environment is.
Happiness versus depressions:
 how much one's needs are met.
Attraction versus repulsion: 
how suitable the company is to oneself.
Liking versus disliking: 
how suitable the thing is to oneself.

Do not take into account only one factor but ALL factors! Try to find out the factors, which are connected to your feelings.

FEELINGS AND WORK HABITS

Work atmospheres and feelings connected to the work are typically related to how easy or difficult each thing is to do and how rewarding it is: how much effort we need and how much we so get done. So in guiding work habits it makes sense to pay lots of attention to feelings and atmospheres too.

My feelings are of the essence that I am made of.
According to the biological picture of humans, harming my feelings means harming my structure and preventing me from my natural ways of functioning. Letting me to live freely according to my feelings and according to my own understanding but strictly morally, is what keeps me well functioning and makes the society work well together.

Fear can be used to making one's performance better:

FEAR

Fear is a reaction to danger. It concentrates your forces into avoiding the danger. It increases your ability to concentrate into fulfilling the immediate needs of the situation. Your habits get a smaller emphasis and the demands of the situation a bigger one.
So let yourself concentrate relaxedly into fulfilling the needs of the situation. Do not grasp things, instead give them enough emphasis by taking them properly into account the usual way that you use your attention in things, which demand reactivity. By this factual attitude you can make your achievements better relaxedly without more worries.

* Feelings are rational.
* An emergency demands a better performance.
* Follow your feelings!

SAMURAIS AND FEAR

Samurais had to be very much afraid in order to avoid being wounded. There are at least two ways around the muscular rigidness and inability to action caused by fear. The oldest one is to follow the advice of the fear like I have described in the former chapter about fear. Another traditional Japanese one is to use the Buddhist meditative awareness (= natural non-forcing non-grasping attention and natural non-forcing non-grasping ways of doing things) in a way, which greatly enlarges one's capacity of action via detachment and freely flowing motion. These two used at the same time should bring the best capacity: so wise is the human nature.

MAKING BIG CHANGES IN LIFE

Pay attention to what stays constant and place your balance upon that. Get to know the new ground and slowly move your balance so that you rest on that instead of on the old ground.

CAPABLE IN EMERGENCIES

How to stay calm in emergencies: Pay attention to what stays constant, reliable in the situation, like the ground that you stand upon for example. Pay attention to the changes only in short glances, as long as you can bear, so that you can learn the main features of the situation. Then return your attention to what stays constant, a reliable ground to build upon, to rest on: "here is the ground, ground, ground,..." until you have recovered enough. The recovery should take from half a second to a minute or two, depending on the pace that you live 
and how much afraid you are.
Use your fear and possible pain to make your achievements better suited to the situation, like I have advised in my texts about fear and pain.

The spreading of attention is a part of our natural way to function.

EASING PAIN

You must pay attention to the hurt part and also to its environment:
for the wrist to the whole hand, to your mind and habits and to the whole emotional and social space around yourself.
You must listen to your body, to its slight messages,
feelings of what is a good balanced healthy way to keep the limb,
and use such all the time.
You must also listen to your mind: are you strained in some way. Relax like one enjoying diving in a warm water. Fill your social and emotional space with nice atmosphere (One way to achieve this is to never think “only about anything that is worth something to you, but to feel with your feelings its worth to you.) and give up habitual tensions, relax!

You must also listen to your body about what is a healthy natural way
of paying attention to your body: there is such a way, you just have to relearn it
by listening and empathizing with your own body.
Such a good balance would be good to have always!

Pain is a warning signal
and simultaneously a way to make you concentrate your attention
to curing the place which hurts.
The pain makes it impossible to do other things wholeheartedly.
So at least that much you must concentrate on curing the hurt part.
A momentary attention isn't enough: you must pay attention to the curing constantly,
and in a natural way, not from your memory.

Headache can be cured similarly,
but in it the way you use your forces and attention is very important.
It is often a need for rest, which is against your habits or opinions
which causes the headache.

STUPIFIED ANIMALS
Humans are the dominant species upon Earth nowadays. That may cause that animals reflect their views on successful life strategies on the light of human ways of living, and so lose lots of their natural understanding of healthy ways of living, because most humans have lost it a long time ago. One piece of evidence for this is that sometimes fear makes animals behave in irrational ways that may be dangerous to them and to the environment, instead of healthily concentrating their forces to meeting the needs of the situation causing the fear.

NOTICING FEAR AND PAIN IN OTHERS

So how would one make the difference between an animal, which feels fear in the right way, and a safe animal. First of all, if the animal succeeds in reacting to the needs of the situation, it is safe. But on the other hand, it is concentrated into meeting the needs of the situation, so its normal life is on a less emphasis - that's what you can notice: its concentration and the leanness of its normal life compared to the usual.
What about suffering: shouldn't we notice clearly when an animal or a human suffers? How can we do that if the reaction to pain and suffering is more positive than what we are used to? There is the same thing as with fear: a successful reaction to pain means successfully concentrating to curing the hurt part, so that the situation isn't as dangerous to the individual. As time passes, the hurt part will be cured. But for the mean while, there is no more need to feel the pain because the reaction has been correct, a healthy one: there is the concentration needed for curing, at the expense of normal life which has become lean and not so much well enough for the long run. The hurt one may appear weak and concentrated to curing, and that is just what has happened and what we can notice and feel compassion for.

MORAL AND AGGRESSION

Aggression and hate are part of our normal ability to feel and react, so they have a curing effect: one just needs to conceive right what the cause and so also the object of hate and aggression is and what the right road to guide that force of aggression, then will the effect be a healthy curing one. But often, usually, it is one oneself that is at fault, so finding the correct object for aggression requires quite enormous amounts of introspection.

A typical problem in this is that we often feel agitated because of things that we cannot change or that are the most difficult to change, like the compulsory school, our nearest relatives, the culture, our work etc. Then it is very impiortant to pay close attention that you never ever misguide the anger to innocent outsiders but to the real source of your horrors.

One ought to be fierce and gentle:
gentle = not doing anything evil at all
fierce = being strong enough to be able to defend oneself and moral

Moral means supporting good and resisting evil, so it means defending the good things and attacking the most evil things.

Defending good is moral, not evil, even when it demands extreme means. It is moral to take part in the military service in a defence force, and the task of a big leader is meant for a truly moral person, even and especially at the time of emergencies and when hard decisions have to be made. Such aggressiveness is demanded from a good pack animal, i.e. it is according to moral and not against it: one needs to fight for healthy living conditions!

SUFFERING

Pain is at the same time a negative feedback and an advice on how to spread one's forces, especially one's attention.
Suffering is a form of pain, so it carries the same message: one should concentrate on curing the hurt part.
Those who err in bad ways away from the healthy nature likeness, are forced to suffer. Otherwise the beautiful healthy happy ways of living would be lost in a short while. If there were no suffering in the world, the systems couldn't be guided, except by the force of understanding and instincts. Feelings would be forcing one to not to care. Now there are threefold safety precautions: feelings, understanding and instincts, and no force guiding away from the pure health, naturality and happy life.

REPAIR MECHANISMS

Health and naturality need repair mechanisms:
* pain and suffering
* diseases
* predators
They drop errors away.

The most healthy ones, the healthiest ones in every respect, do not suffer and do not die. They live very happily. That keeps the world well on its right tracks.

Revir fights take care that an animal with a poor strategy of life cannot steal room from those with a good strategy of life.

FEELING STRONGLY ABOUT MUSIC

Why we feel about music and art?

We feel strongly about things, which touch our nature.
Art handles things from the human point of view, what it feels like to live in different circumstances. Via such communication we understand things from the human point of view, what it feels like to experience such things: what do such things mean in human life and what is the role of them in the world at large.

If there is beauty involved we may take it as a model to ourselves about how to handle things, what is a balanced healthy way to live. Just analyse which qualities you find beautiful and which not and copy only the beautiful things of course.
If you like just a beautiful ordering, it may be that you are looking for good quality thinking and life, which is rational enough, or tidy enough. The complexity and artificiality of the modern industrialised world demands lots of rationality from us.
One mark of that is that to me, a thinker, the sense of beauty and feelings do appear rational and it is easy to understand humans as creations of nature: probably a correct picture of humans has to emphasise the role of thinking just in these modern times.

I am a thinker, so I need to be an example to others about what thinking says about the world and about good ways to live, about right values to follow.

Objective thinking and feelings

FEELINGS, INSTINCTS, LIKINGS AND OBJECTIVE THINKING

Natural selection created thinking, feelings and instincts of humans to work together. If one follows only thinking, that doesn't give as objective result as when one simultaneously follows ones feelings and instincts. Thinking along the lines given by feelings and instincts is a natural form of perception that is objective, too. (I do so and it increases my understanding of things without decreasing my objectivity.) Form an objective picture of the whole!

Feelings, instincts and likings tell about the importance and role of things in life. It is important to follow them to get an objective result with right emphasis on things and right roles for them to allow human to behave in a natural healthy way, also in large scale questions. It is important to have feelings in one's picture of the world, compassionate
feelings about large scale things, too.

In good thinking things are perceived in a way that is natural to humans: with senses, feelings and instincts. So the motivational component and an understanding of the meaningfulness of the things in human life comes automatically with the practical thinking.

I use my feelings, instincts, likings and sense of beauty
as a part of my objective thinking, as a helping aid in conceiving things.

FEELING, INSTINCTS AND PERCEPTION

Antoine de Saint-Exupery:
"Only by following one's heart's voice can one see well.
The eyes cannot notice everything."

If human nature guides us humans to observe in our environment and in our lives
things that are important in practise (like makes sense to guess based on the theory of evolution), our instincts: sense of importance, feelings, motivation, LIKINGS, sense of beauty and common sense guide us toward the essential in things.

REMOVING ERRORS

Following one's feelings, instincts and likings gives room to objectiveness since one's needs are met and so they do not overrule one's intelligence.

Using feelings, instincts and likings as a part of one's objective thinking does not cause confusion since these things can be perceived as extra qualities like colours for example are perceived.
Make sure that you get sizes right: feelings tell about the importance of things in human life. Sizes have to be measured separately, objectively.
Do not take sides. Form an objective picture of the whole. Just mark up the emotional importance of things in addition.
As long as one does not mix one's wishes to one's perceptions, feelings do not confuse thinking. One can create an extra perspective for wishes and dreams instead.
Feelings are objective. But feelings that are connected to social position are not objective, usually, since they connect social needs and power relationships to other kinds of things in life and include often lies.

"ALL ALWAYS"
Pay attention to what each feeling handles: what is its area of validity in thinking. Often feelings are connected to protecting something, so "all" may mean just the protected thing and not everything.

FEELINGS AND OBJECTIVE THINKING
Feelings and objective thinking

Feelings tell what you estimate the situation to be like from the point of view of human functioning.

The estimate has been made by your thinking.
So feelings tell about the results of thinking.
So if our thinking is very objective, with sizes and emphasises right,
our feelings are objective too.

When you want to be objective, don't mix imagination at all to your feelings,
since it is just imagination which makes the feelings unobjective.

WHAT TOUCHES US, IS IMPORTANT

The deeper something touches feelings, the more important it is to life, the more we typically get added capacity from it if we just are able to use structural analogies from one type of doing to all others. Understand the messages of feelings!

ATMOSPHERES

Atmospheres give a HOLISTIC VIEW about what we feel about the things in our environment. Since feelings are objective, they tell about the world from the point of view of our needs, atmospheres are objective too.

ATMOSPHERES AND THINKING

Atmospheres give a landscape with feelings connected to it, reflecting the things in it, so if you understand the message of your feelings, atmospheres give a way to make quick and accurate, very objective philosophical estimates of things.

Atmospheres give information about rhythm, the structure of the whole, its balance and about what material the whole is made of.

Atmospheres fit together with holistic view that contains information about motivational factors, instincts, the elements of the environment and the role of those in life: the rhythm and dynamics of action and of the world at large.

Since I use holistic views in my thinking, atmospheres are important in my thinking.

You can find what an atmosphere tells you the same way that you can follow your feelings in thinking: just concentrate your attention to the things that the atmosphere describes and find out the rationality in those comments.
Read the text Feelings understand.

FINDING NEW THINGS FROM THE MEMORY

In remembering things the atmospheres offer a natural way to recognize things - school like form of written word is not O.K. for thinking and remembering.

Base your perceptions to the atmosphere, feeling, colour, shape etc. and do like when watching a landscape and trying to see all spots of certain colour, shape or the like and to form a holistic view of just them.

How to conceive mechanical things via atmospheres:
See the mechanical things as structures. Generalize and imagine what world would be like if it consisted totally of such structures, so you get a landscape with structure. An atmosphere is just a landscape with structure: see it as such, so you understand a lot via it. What the structure brings and what it takes, what it is like and what it prevents,...

Use several ways of conceiving at once: pictorial and atmospheres at least, so you will learn the connections of those ways of seeing the world and understand also mechanically the things that you conceive via atmospheres. So feelings will no longer be nonsense to you and to your environment, but hard facts.

ATMOSPHERE ASSOCIATIONS
In addition to fact associations are atmosphere associations valuable: they give structural analogies, in other words they increase understanding. So it is valuable to read poems.

FINDING NEW THINGS FROM THE MEMORY

In remembering things the atmospheres offer a natural way to recognize things - school like form of written word is not O.K. for thinking and remembering.

Base your perceptions to the atmosphere, feeling, colour, shape etc. and do like when watching a landscape and trying to see all spots of certain colour, shape or the like and to form a holistic view of just them.

HEART'S VOICE IS TRULY RIGHT
in the tough modern world

WE MUST RELEARN THE LANGUAGE OF OUR THOUGHTS

It is dangerous to think that feelings are totally irrational and that one should trust only in thinking, since our thinking is based on as sure perceptions possible  of how things are and what we perceive are feelings, sensations. So we need to be able to trust fully in sensations in order to be able to think well, clearly and with certainty.

THE NATURAL BASE OF GOOD THINKING
Feelings, shades and atmospheres tell what type of things it is question of. So they help a lot in thinking.

ATMOSPHERES

Atmospheres give a HOLISTIC VIEW about what we feel about the things in our environment. Since feelings are objective, they tell about the world from the point of view of our needs, atmospheres are objective too.

How likings which seem nonsense, may be useful:
For Example:

POETRY

Reading (and trying to learn to write) poems:
* increases one's understanding of the meanings of the words,
* increases one's ability to find words and expressions,
* creates analogies and an ability to create analogies to be a part of one's thinking capacity (more structure),
* teaches one a better sense of balance, health and naturality in writing and objective thinking - being good for one's sense of balance of wholes,
* teaches one to pay attention to the essential in life and experience and so find things that our lives and understanding are based
* makes one more sensitive to atmospheres and impressions, to ways of experiencing things, and so to our sure perceptions of the world
* makes one familiar with different ways of seeing the world, different values and emphasises, different ways of thinking and different ways of expression and different roles of language and perceptions in life and thinking

VISUAL ARTS

Why to teach the visual arts in schools, a beneficiality view from the point of view of work efficiency:
•	It increases the sensitivity to atmospheres
•	and the shape recognition ability
•	communicational skills, both understanding and self-expression
•	brings self basedness which brings one’s capacity better into use
•	increases emotional intelligence because of bringing more vocabulary to sensations and ability to take feeliungs into account and the ability to act according to feelings and makes thsu better the ability of the individual to search for a job that is suited to one’s abilities and to use one’s free time in ways which make most sense
•	makes one’s understanding better since the langauge of feelings, pictures, atmospheres and social impressions is much more natural and thus more fluent language for understanding things than the usually in schools learned wrtiien language and the academical type of thinking by the help of written language (which is an aid of remembering things, not a base for thinking)
•	the academical objective thinking works best by the help of pictures. So the ability to conceive seen landscapes makes one’s ability to objective thinking better.
•	Increases creativity and thus makes one’s ability to solve problems better.
•	Humans are adabted to a life in the nature where there are lots more of sight perceptions with structures and details than in cities. This ought to affect the ability to pictural thinking which is humans’ä most effective way of objective thinking, in a way which makes the thinking ability smaller if there is no extra attention paid to visual education.

Beauty and the ideals

BEAUTY AND OUR NATURE
Beauty tells of natural goals in life and in the world at large.

Health is beautiful:
AESTHETICS AND GOOD WAYS OF DOING THINGS

What we consider beautiful:
Signs of the following kinds of things:
* natural
* healthy
* balanced
* harmonic
* a whole, without fractures
* on a good ground
* easy, effortless and nice way of doing something
* happy
* essential

Signs of flourishing life.
Something which to take as a model for oneself, to learn from.

(What we consider ugly:
* unnatural, artificial
* unbalanced
* full of fractures, contradictory, broken, a part instead of a whole
* unhealthy, ill, lack of health
* on a poor ground

Something gone badly ashtray.
Something to be prevented, not to be copied at all.)

HEALTHY STIMULI

It is important to get natural stimulus of a healthy, balanced way of doing things.
(Like our sense of beauty helps us to get, at least partly.)
So we will learn from a healthy example how to do things and how to not to do them:
By our own sense of rightness and happiness we correct things toward better
and avoid catastrophes and things,
especially bad ways of doing things,
that lead to catastrophes if those bad ways are allowed to continue undisturbed
- those ways have to be replaced by better healthier ways of doing things.

SENSORY PERCEPTIONS AS MODELS

In the natural nature environment into which human beings are adapted to, there are lot of sensory perceptions all the time. Maybe human beings are adapted by the evolution to take those perceptions as a model, as kind of building material for structures in their thinking, since thinking is meant to be a kind of mental picture of what the practical world is like, and human beings used to get the right kind of sensory stimulus all the time. So maybe part of our capacity is founded on us getting enough healthy influence from the environment via the senses. That makes the visual environment and recreation in the nature important.

We usually get used to what we see around us. How the environment is organised and what it looks like affects a lot what we consider normal, to what we compare what we do. So if we use healthy ways of arranging things, doing things and so on as a basic guideline in how to arrange the environment from the visual point of view (and from others, too), we learn to do things in healthy ways, to recognise what is good and healthy and how to do it in practise, and on the other hand to recognise what is not healthy and to avoid such mistakes.

Nowadays that many systems have grown to look too large to be easily handled, it is important to give good example of using a good holistic view and healthy ways of building the environment. One might copy from traditional smaller scale things healthy and natural and handy ways of doing things, and arrange also large things like public places like streets, houses and vehicles that healthy and easily understandable way. That means in practise more room to women's values and ways of doing things, also in the city planning, architecture and so on, and especially in deciding about the forms, outer shapes of manufactured things and fashion. It is essential to make things understandable and to arrange all the things that one can so that technology stays in the place of the servant so that there is lots of room for human values and the needs of the humans. So one can little by little take these smaller things as examples for oneself in handling large scale things.

The same applies to the choice of symbols, names and so on. Those also should be chosen so that they lead toward good by themselves, give solutions to people.

BEAUTY BRINGS US NEAR THE IDEALS

The sense of beauty is precious. It brings us near the ideals. It teachers us about things which were far away but now near. The key to learning about it is in following one's feelings and understanding instead of school like thinking. Beauty sets a natural example of good ways of doing. One might try listing the good sides of the beautiful things: natural, balanced, relaxed, symmetric, healthy, sensitive, peak, the most shiny place, and see the analogies of THOSE things to other things, their ways of doing and what is good in them.
By the analogue, we can learn.

The sense of beauty is also a sense of ordering, structure etc.
What is a good structured whole like?
Structure analogies, felt (not school like in ways of thinking).

Use the sense of beauty together with the sense of health!

The beauty of an ideal like Gaia tells about the health of Gaia.

I think with the help of my sense of beauty:
Simplicity -> well understood
symmetry -> generalisations
essentiality
instincts, feelings etc. -> essential from the point of view of life

"BEAUTY IS IN THE EYES OF THE ONE WHO LOOKS"

I believe that beauty is a structural characteristic of the things, which we look at. It depends on the skill level of the one who looks: is the "ordering" of the thing beautiful enough, rational enough in their opinion about life, about how life should be lived, in order to look, to be classified as beautiful.
Compare to the text Wholeheartedly and to my idea of beauty:

What I mean by the sense of beauty:
* instinct level understanding about right
* things, which touch feelings: which feelings mark good
* touch the practical reality
* really healthy
* beautiful in a deeply thought of way
* feeling of being correct
* Wrum! There it goes!

BE ANALYTICAL ABOUT BEAUTY

The using of the sense of beauty demands analytical thinking: what is it exactly which is beautiful, touches us and what not, what is there trustworthy, a sure ground to build upon (naturality, health, happiness, the essential things in life) and what is worth nothing in comparison.

FEELINGS, BEAUTY AND LEARNING

Follow your feelings, they tell what is important in the world. The sense of beauty tells us about goals, about what good healthy natural happy functioning is like, and the picture, which we so create in our minds, serves as a map to a better functioning - via a road that is easy for humans. Typically when we learn new things, we learn types of structures and ways of using attention. If we have a good idea of what a healthy happy human is like, we have a good idea of how a human functions best, what are things grounded on and why just so.

Things which belong to the natural repertoire of humans but which we learn in school with the help of books, are in our lives in a different form than the natural easy one. Some natural structures of thinking seem to be altogether lacking: at least some concepts that have to do with the structure of thinking and natural ways of learning.

BUILT BEAUTY

Health -> beauty; taking good health as a model

Build beauty
* the wish to build beautiful things
* the wish to look at build beautiful things

* a sense of health, harmony etc. 
-> models of health, harmony etc. 
-> the possibility to live according to such 
if one just has the skill for it
* recognising good things 
-> taking them as goals for one's own life 
& as models

What we term beautiful: 
things that make us feel in the following way:
Beauty
That's right: 
I dream of building a nest to a place like that.
That would make the world my beloved.

Most of us lack a ladder to our dreams. Otherwise beauty would make sense to us. The ladder is a skill, which is connected to human functioning, to an experience based theory perspective about what is a good way for humans to function.
* What is good functioning like? (The model)
* How to achieve it?
Copy the structure of the model. (Read the texts Learning from ones much above oneself in skill, and Fulfilling dreams.) If the model is a person, you need to adapt the structure to your personal characteristics such as size and skill in each thing.
Feelings tell the functional state of a living being: that's the structure.

FEELINGS AND BEAUTY AS STRUCTURES

Feelings and beauty describe structures: the functional state of a human or of a human society or of the biosphere and its environment or the like.
The balancing of such a complex whole is a skill and so models may be useful in it.
Balance:
= each functional part in good health and on in its healthy natural place and in natural proportions according to the situation and to the nature of things. Healthy natural functioning. Happiness and harmony, long term safety.

WOMANLY BEAUTY

A human being who:
* practises sports or the like
* is interested in atmospheres and feelings
* wants friendly social relationships
* is nurturing toward small ones
etc.

A BEAUTIFUL FLOWER

* a piece of nature
* beautiful structure: a good harmonic ordering
* pleasant for feelings and so reminds of emotionally good ways of doing things
(It is important to get sensed models of such and to get such good habits.)
* from the flower will become a fruit or a berry, maybe eatable, and it is good to know
* a symbiosis between insects and flowers is a goos model of how to live

BEAUTIFUL SUNRISE

* the harmony, naturality and health of the pure nature
* a positive direction
* a natural happening according to the human nature

A BEAUTIFUL PAINTING

* visual beauty: healthy happy structures
* other kinds of beauty: things positive for good health
•	emotional beauty

BEAUTY VERSUS USABLE THINGS

Beauty, which is a model of certain characteristics, is of course different from an usable thing having those characteristics really. The beautiful model isn't a ground for life while the usable thing is. But the beautiful thing may be important to emotional life, to the valuing of emotions and goals in life, as a social guideline in that, as a visual environment (suitable living conditions, sensed model of a goal, social message) or otherwise even though it isn't as concretely, unavoidably needed as food for example is.

BEAUTY IS IMPORTANT

It is good that ideals exist. Otherwise one falls to the pitfall of too timid solutions in which no existing problems get solved and so there is only a little or no change toward better.

A BEAUTIFUL PERSON

The beauty of a single person: Read the text about natural leaders. The beauty of supported things and of skills.

BIG LEADERS

Big leaders search for support.
Fulfilling basic needs is the way to gain support. People always aim at toward fulfilling their own needs and the needs of others. The need for security is one of them. Toward a healthy happy world.
A healthy human being, a personality of a healthy kind, can be a centre of recovery for the whole society, a leader by instinct level support. Toward a healthy happy world.

It is natural for humans to live in societies. So there is a natural type of leader too: the same characteristics may have appeal to many, to just about all. Healthy individual is the natural kind of centre for a human society. Such individuals get well along with others.

a picture: the diagram

THE RATIONALITY OF IMAGINATION

Think of the tale like Gaia and other tale like objects of feelings as a bunches of separate causes of feelings instead of as single descriptions of the reality, then they are also rational.

Gaia is an ideal but very informative. It is a dream characterised by a set of qualities, which are useful directions in practise.
Gaia = all living beings are one
+ naturality, health
+ compassion
+ responsibility, good moral
+ nature paradise, a healthy happy world

BEAUTY AS A PART OF OUR VOCABULARY

By adding new liked and needed things to our life,
like the things that just our feelings and sense of beauty guide us toward,
we learn about our functioning on those sides of life,
we become better at observing things,
at keeping our balance
and at staying in good shape, capable.
Noticing those things also when doing other things gives us a better understanding,
a more structured view of things and of our own functioning in doing them,
more vocabulary - correct vocabulary based on our practical experience
instead of in imagination and the claims of others.
Our ability to see more complex wholes makes us more skilled in doing things,
gives us a better way of doing, making the quality of the work that we do better
and the work more efficient.

With this view of the importance and wisdom of feelings,
doing things according to one's feelings
- according to one's own understanding
and by the way that one oneself, an individual, functions best -
also the feelings, which refer to, how much things are according to one's own feelings,
start to make sense, to tell about important things
from  the point of view of the functioning of the individual and the society.

Your feelings tell what are the important goals in life
from the point of view of your natural own understanding about life and the world,
about what is best for you and for all humans,
because of the wise human nature.

EMOTIONAL BEAUTY

Mark it one, which concerns emotions. See how it exactly concerns them: what is in so good state that it looks beautiful - in what kind of state exactly. What important about your life from the point of view of your own functioning do those emotions tell? Add this to the landscape formed by your emotional understanding about life at large.
Think of the world as a large biological system: feelings and beauty tell of the functioning of the parts of the system.

HEALTH INCREASES HEALTH

How healthy ways of doing things affect the environment toward better, healthier, more well-working and happy. Building things on a strong ground.
Giving good example to others and the natural reparability that is thus created.
Finding the true chord, getting grasp of the art of living and of what common sense says.

A really intelligent person: living in a healthy happy way, giving thus a good example to others responsibly, affecting the world toward better by giving a healthy example and by having found the right chord in living.

MODELS OF HEALTHY LIFE

It is important to get natural stimulus of a healthy, balanced way of doing things. (Like our sense of beauty helps us to get, at least partly.) So we will learn from a healthy example how to do things and how to not to do them: By our own sense of rightness and happiness we correct things toward better and avoid catastrophes and things, especially bad ways of doing things that lead to catastrophes if those bad ways are allowed to continue undisturbed - those ways have to be replaced by better healthier ways of doing things.

Athletes, old good times and animals

Value the healthy and take it as an example to yourself!

(I practise a sport, like animals and value old persons.)

Balancing things in one's life, philosophy and wisdom of life, healthy ways of doing things, a human being as a whole that works well together: emotions, motivation and ones' understanding of the world.

SUMMARY
Use your sense of beauty together with your sense of health.

Sexuality and learning

SEXUAL MORAL

Finding a sexual partner for one's lifetime is one of the big things in life, so one must mark it important enough.
But one should not steal from others their spouses because so one's isn't supporting the islands in the society agreement upon which loyalty is built.
DIFFERENT NEEDS CAUSE DIFFERENT LIKINGS

The roles of things in life and in our picture of the world vary according to what we ourselves are like, what our strengths, weaknesses, role and situation of life are, and according to what are our power relationships in each thing compared to each one of all the other persons, what is our effect to the whole, in which respects are we (our life) based on each thing, and so on.
Different individuals have different identities and different things are beneficial to the different individuals:
* different abilities
* different environment
-> different things are needed for development and because of this, different things make sense to the individual

In addition there are the different likings:
* personal characteristics
* one's ability to notice things
* needs, things that are lacking and meeting those needs
* sense of health!
* habits
* which things bring the meaningfulness to life,...

Read my text Sex and the wish to copy good ways of doing things: different men like different women.

SEX AND THE WISH TO COPY GOOD WAYS OF DOING THINGS

Men think that women look charming because of sex. But they are mistaken: Women look attractive because they are more intelligent than men, use better ways of doing things. Sexual attraction is at least partly a question of a natural way of learning.

There is a resemblance between the bravures of men and the ordinary ways of doing of women. So men have a lot to learn from women.

Sex brings lots of influence from the other person's way  to live and do things and so gives one the possibility to learn new ways of doing things by copying from the model. Socialisation serves as a natural helping aid in learning.

Sexual attraction is the greater the better the other one is at something that one wants/needs to learn about the art of living.
Health, naturality, balance, good healthy ways of doing things, an unified whole,...
The wish to develop to a healthy direction that is positive for happy life.

As long as one is moral, sexuality is positive for happy life. And these thoughts mean that it is also beneficial.

THE WAY TO LEARN FROM SEX

So as one is sexual, one should pay attention to the influence that one gets about the other person's ways of moving and ways to do things and try to via them understand, like is natural for humans and animals, the mode (eyes, hearing, thinking, memory, body coordination, emotions, atmospheres, social things,...) and way (rhythm, structure,...) of doing. Via learning these balances of divisions of attention and effort one can learn the ways of doing of the other person and so her/his  talents and skills. By making a combination of these two ways to live, one's own and that of the other person, by using the unified understanding of both, one can combine the good sides of both and leave those bad sides away for which the other one has strengths to replace them with.

If there is something which is of no use but still interests you, check whether it can enrichen other areas of life, for example by giving sensed models to thinking, so that there is a point to an interest in it anyway. Feelings and atmospheres are valuable: check the section about them. Also, a human being is basically a physical being, all the actions being intertwined around the physical body, so keeping the body fit and well functioning keeps the whole human fit, balanced, healthy, happy and well functioning. We are also social beings, pack animals. What our social environment is like and how the pack works affects enormously our lives. Our whole environment consists of humans, of the human pack, so it really makes sense to pay lots of attention to social things too. But on the other hand, we need also planning, hard rationality in order to get things work well, so there is a point to most seemingly irrational interests in the good sides of others. Those, which do not make sense, are a consequence of a thought error. But remember that the needs of people differ. What one has a lot, one doesn't necessarily need from the other. So someone can bear a person who would be totally unsuitable to another one. And a person with other skills than yourself can benefit from other good sides of others then what you yourself are capable of. Like for example whether one has learned this way from learning from sex or not - that can make an enormous difference to one's learning ability. One should just remember that the more skills one has, the more one can influence things and the more important it is to be responsible, moral: to think of the consequences of one's actions, to carry responsibility about them.

LEARNING MAKES THE ENJOYMENT PERMANENT

Learning doesn't remove the enjoyment from sex: by learning you get permanent the good feeling: it comes partly from the feeling of strength and ease of the other one and partly from a well functioning social relationship - that is one thing to learn too, so that good feeling too will become a permanent enjoyment to your life!

WHAT IF THE STRUCTURES ARE TOO DIFFICULT TO BEGIN WITH
If the structures that the other person uses are too difficult for you, that is partly a consequence of her/his ways of doing: if you would adopt the same ways of doing, especially the same mode and division of forces and attention, you would get an as big capacity as the other one has. Remember the thinking part and the use of forces that the other one uses in thinking: especially what is the role of the sense of sight in conceiving things, all its roles in thinking. Also, remember to value atmospheres, beauty and sensitivity.
But what if your memory isn't enough to remember these complex structures, then use your memory for nature landscapes, placing the picture to be remembered above the complexity of a nature landscape and using a similar way of remembering than for the nature view. That should increase your memory and capacity to handle such structures to manyfold.
Also, in order to remember the mode, use your memory for atmospheres, sensations and experiences and not the memory for already learned school like things.

Read the texts Developing in skill, On the value of real justice, and also the other texts before this text.
Read also the texts Fulfilling dreams and Building on the healthy.

The ability to use the senses as a helping aid in thinking and an understanding of the connection between physical and psychological(?) helps one to learn from sex. Also an understanding about the role of modes in developing abilities helps one to learn from sex. Read the texts Learning from those much above one's skill level and Developing abilities.

COMPARING ONESELF TO OTHER HUMANS

DEVELOPING SKILLS

If we pay attention to different sides of things,
we get a different perspective to the world,
where different things get emphasized in perception,
as a base of practical action (knowledge)
and as goals.
Our understanding of the world,
of causes and consequences
and of the importance of things in life,
creates this emphasis together with our mode of action
(spreading of attention,
how our different functions get emphasized in living and doing),
our habits,
skills (which determine which ones are easiest and most successful routes to our goals)
and getting socialized towards the perspectives, modes, values and ways of doing of other persons.

Being talented in something means that one is on the right kind of mode for that kind of things to succeed
and pays natural attention to the right things (the essentials, the point in things) in a right way.

One can learn by copying from another by empathizing,
taking the other person as a model for oneself,
noticing the essential and putting things into practise
in a way that takes into account the differences in personal strengths
(so the base for action is a little different for each person)
and doing things based on one's own rhythm,
understanding and true motivational ground
(emotions that are not based on social position, technical things
or theory-based knowledge).

Balance the whole. Do things in healthy ways that take the whole into account.

All healthy human beings have the same natural functional parts
which join together to form the whole.
Different persons have different strengths. One can emphasize the functions differently and get wholes that are balanced differently. One can learn from others new balances.
The healthiest balance is the goal.

Read the texts "All humans have the same needs" and "Natural environment and life".

The fascinating tale like books of Carlos Castaneda - an anthropologist from Peru - tell about indian shamanism: about the skill of changing radically one's way of perceiving the world.

Shamanism at large may be connected to using ways of perception and communication that are natural to human beings - like empathy, instincts in a nature environment etc.

"SUBJECTIVITY"
It is good to pay attention to with whom one associates with, so one can take into account the individual differences in the ways of functioning: whether it is a sight, hearing, body, rationality, emotions, atmospheres and so on oriented or of some other kind. Read my text about learning new skills. This is one of women's strengths.

LONGING

Mark the things that you miss, important in your picture of the world, in a way which affects your ways of living. That honesty eases the pain of separation: from now on you will safeguard the important things in your life better than you have this far done.

LEARNING FROM THOSE WHO ARE MUCH ABOVE ONE'S OWN SKILL LEVEL

In taking as a model for yourself someone
who is very much more skilled and/or talented than you yourself are,
you must not only look at the model, but you must also look at yourself:
what you can well, what you can somewhat and what you can slightly
and about what you have some idea about how you could learn such things.
Now compare to your model:
what are the basic things needed for succeeding at least slightly
or somewhat in the thing in question?
How could you possibly learn them: take a look at your picture of the world,
about the practical possibilities for yourself in your life in those things.

Usually in learning and listening and looking to others I am especially interested in the point in doing things - both those of my own and those of the other person. What is the point in things in practise?
Build on a true ground, not on faked one.

AN EXAMPLE: ASSEMBLY POINT IN CARLOS CASTANEDA'S BOOKS

Our picture of the world determines what we observe. It determines which sides of the reality we pay attention to and how we unify our observations to a picture of the whole. It tells what exists and what not, and so determines how we interpret our observations.
Castaneda uses to the description of this the concept of "the location of the assemblage point" by which he means the way in which we collect our sensory perceptions to a whole. The concept is wider and includes at least the following things:
* how the observations are assembled to form a whole
(I imagine that I know that my life will end after two or three seconds and that those seconds are lengthened to last hours or even years. I am without a possibility to communicate with other people. All the meanings connected to navigating in the ordinary everyday world disappear and there are new personal meanings born. Based on these I get a grasp of how different would be the world where the ways of interpretation accepted by the society would be very different from ours.)
* which sides of the world one pays attention to
(Examples:
1. My first drawing class: a white pyramid and a ball on a white table. The teacher commands me to describe the different shades of white but I cannot see them. I try some time and succeed at last. I turn my head and the whole world is full of lights and shadows, which I have never before seen.
2. As a beginner on a dancing course I notice that the way that I used to conceive my body isn't enough. I need to learn a totally new language in which there is no room for words.)
* momentary picture of the world
* dominant mood (intellect/feelings/concentrating on the senses)
(An example: mathematics snooze. I am reading for an examination on the last evening just before I go to sleep. In the morning I wake up in the examination, trying to proof mathematical things. I get out and the whole world is bright and clearly seen. But I cannot get along with people like usual. I answer only "yes" and "no", wait for more information, claims to judge.)
* state of mind
In the language of my own scientifical picture of the world, the place of the assemblage point tells the momentary mode of the human brain, which mind processes (both conscious and unconscious, from simple perception to abstract thinking) are happening at each moment.

Making the way to perceive a habitual one

Our picture of the world is based on us always seeing things the same way. If our way to sense would change all the time, we would have no means to figure out what the world is like. So we have to fix the assemblage point in order to understand the world. Inner speech is a way to do that.
A child does not yet have a habitual way to see the world. Her assemblage point moves freely.
Each adult who associates with the child, teaches him how to conceive the world. The adults teach the child to talk to oneself and that inner talk fixes the assemblage point, the way to sense. When we are adults, our picture of the world has become so habitual that we cannot imagine it being just one of very many possible ways to perceive the reality.
(An example: A child learns just the language, which is spoken around the child. An adult recognizes the phonemes of one's mother tongue but not necessarily those of foreign tongues.)
If a human being manages to stop one's inner speech, the assemblage point gets freed and one can sense in extraordinary ways.

The rationality of religion

WHOLEHEARTEDLY

What makes you convinced? Which things you support wholeheartedly?
This voice of your own understanding and of your heart
fits well together with other similar voices forming a harmonical whole, which is the ideal
and at the same time as correct thinking as possible.
One can think about this ideal with the help of religion for example:
the fitting together of all good,
one of the basic building parts of human nature.
It is a solution centred way to answer the questions of life:
of making one's view better on some essential part.

RELIGION

Maybe a whole human is also religious in some way. At least one needs to do some things seriously, wholeheartedly.

Think what is rational in feelings, find ways to take that rationality into account: often rational grounds can be used even if others do not want to listen to feelings.

Often religion seems to be connected to our idea of what is fractureless.

Think what a whole (not fractured but healthy) human being is like and what a healthy natural human society is like. Build this model in your mind, marking up how sure each claim in it is. It is our goal to reach this beauty of naturality/of creation in the world.
A human being is essentially a part of the nature, that's why I call the present day people fractured, not completely healthy.

REAL MASTERY IS NEAR THE HEART
Feelings reach the essential

1) Feelings as a map: If we are motivated to some task from our heart, our feelings tell how we should do it:
which road leads to success and which not. In other words, our feelings have memorised how well we did
in each thing. So our memories about feelings and our emotional associations (structure analogs) serve as
a map about what to invest in and which road to travel.

2) We naturally feel strongly about the central issues of human life, about their most important matters. Those things are usually common to all humans.

3)Feelings reflect our motivation. And our motivation in turn tells how well we have understoods the idea in what we are doing and so what kind of meaningfullness the end result has.
4) If we are not motivated, that can be seen in the end result too. By reading from the memory one cannot figure out anythjing new butinspiration makes one achieve better than what is usually possible for oneself by being actively observing and creative.

FULFILLING DREAMS

Divide your dream according to what needs that are completely natural to human beings, each side of the dream fulfils. Imagine what are like the situations where each one of these needs are met separately (+ all at the same time). Do not make a too concrete picture. Instead rely on your true understanding. Make as natural pictures as you can: totally according to feelings (like created by Heaven, God) and not like theory in book form. Now think of how these needs are met: what you know for sure that is needed for each of these as support: like healthy life, healthy individual, a good understanding of the world with an excellent true unified picture of the world and a possibility to do everything according to one's feelings according to that picture - also in the large scale things! What is the role of meeting each of these needs in the life and functioning of the individual, of the group and of the society? How are these needs met in practise? What can one build upon in meeting these needs? So one has a map (the goal) and stepping stones to build upon to begin with.

The model of what is health like helps to fulfil natural needs.

SUMMARY

All feelings lead toward good.

Why is it so?
The evolution created feelings.
So feelings guide us toward better survival in life.

The problems in this are typically caused by a lack in understanding.
Humans ought to have a natural 
objective holistic view of the world 
and of  each thing that they meet in life
 and of its role in the world at large.
If one lacks a holistic view, one reacts first to one thing and then to another one while forgetting the first one, bouncing so mindlessly about and colliding needlessly with others. So one without a holistic view lacks the guidance of a good proper picture of the world.

Only with that holistic view all right, 
in other words with a good picture of the world 
that guides us right in life, 
do feelings guide us right in life!

A REMARK

Going with feelings while having a holistic view of life and of the world at large does not mean lying to oneself about what happiness is. You cannot pretend that refusing to do anything would be the wisest course of action for you. Instead you have to build up strengths which will make life light and pleasant for you: you need to exercise yourself on all areas of life, building new strengths for you. This demands some effort but brings a pleasant effect.
Humans are practically acting beings. Healthy natural life like our feelings guide us to does not mean laziness. Instead it means lots of sports and physical work, lots of using the senses, having a rich social life and also intellectually interesting endeavours, in a word: lots of all kinds of meaningful things to do!
What the ideal is like, depends on your own situation of life and on your own skill level in a variety of things to do. So it is very different for each individual. Still, what is healthy and brings happiness is appproximately the same to all, we just approach the correct way to live from very different directions: some need more rationality to their lives, some more practical work, some hard rationality to be able to protect themselves, some friendship,…

Since following feelings and instincts correctly demands holistic objectivity, here is a quick guide to the basics of  that skill:

THE BASICS OF HOLISTIC OBJECTIVE THINKING

(Noticed by and written down by Hannele Tervola)

MAKING PERCEPTIONS, ARRANGING THE MEMORY AND GOING THROUGH WHAT ONE THUS HAS MEMORIZED
ARE AN IMPORTANT MAJOR PART OF OBJECTIVE THINKING

*
Thinking consists of noticing things, so objective thinking is very much like using the senses.
What is thinking? Thinking means forming a correct picture of the world. Thinking is based on undisturbed perceptions: “This is like this and that is like that.” Thinking is not based on words, terms or concepts. Instead objective thinking is based on ordinary sensory perceptions and on memories of sensory perceptions.
Based on our experience of life we form a picture of our living environment with its human relationships. So the base, the starting point for all thinking, are one’s perceptions, one’s memories of what the world is like, of what our everyday life is like.

*
Gardening mode: think in practical ways as if you were sensing the things in your memory or imagination.
The best way for making perceptions for the purposes of objective thinking, is to do like one who enjoys gardening does: a concretical clearly sensed nearest environment, where you can use all of your senses to feel the things in it, maybe touch them and try them; plus an awareness of the whole landscape that one is working in: the garden and the wider landscape.
Similarly it is very good in thinking if you can from your memory imagine the things to think about as a very concretical picture in front of you, where you can best watch it and try it, at the same time as you are aware of the place of those things in the world.
You have kind of zoomed yourself to the environment of that subject in your picture of the world so that you can make as clear perceptions as ever: “This thing I see clearly, but about that thing I cannot know because it isn’t in my picture.”

*
A holistic view of the world: here I live, there is the shop, and so on; future rising to the air and one’s experiencies of life as a trail on that map: here was I at each moment.
Arrange your experiencies of life with the help of the sense of sight to form a map of the whole world.  Some parts of the map you know well – they are described by your experience of life – and some you do not know at all: those are left blank.
“Here I am sitiing, there is a stool below me, a table in front, the window over there and the door over there, behind the door a corridor via which I came here,… Outside there is the street. Via it, so and so, I can reach home. My home I know likewise but more detailedly. The shop nearest my home in on another street around a corner, the homes of the friends of my kids there near by and the park close by…” Build this way a map of the whole world. Place all things that you know at their right places in that map, like you via your experiencies know them to be. Add to this the official map of the nearest environment, of the whole district, up to the level of the whole globe. This way you have all the world in the same picture!
The past you can place underground, the lower the further away in time it is, and future up into the air. This way you can see the track of your experiencies find its way in the landscape, rising upwards all the way to the ground level, while the future is left up into the air.

*
You can think of anything in your picture of the world, if you zoom into it and its environment.
You can see any place in your picture of the world if you zoom to that place in your map, and you can see the whole world at the same time when you zoom out to the large scale map of the whole globe.
This way you have one single correct picture of the world, with sizes and proportions right, which is a very good starting point for your objective thinking and in itself already much of what objective thinking aims at: an objective picture of the whole world!

*
A gliding glance and forming a holistic view: do not let your glance jumb at all!
In these instructions it is the idea to handle all thoughts at the same time, so that you can get everything handled at once and do not need to get stuck in some endless mosaic of things for example as if you were thinking by words.
An educated thinking advances slowly and carefully from one piece of information to the next, kind of lets one’s glance glide along the regularities of the thought subject and takes care to not to let one’s glance ever jumb – not even if the one that one talks with would be prone to thought jumbs. This is so because with every jumb one easily loses the thread, the idea of one’s thoughts and so the trustworthiness of one’s thoughts is lost too.
So let the focus of your eyes glide along the subject that you think about, at the same time as you form a holistic view of the subject and about its role in the world – just like you would do if you met the things in the life in the living, visited some place or whatever.
This is one of the basic skills in objective thinking, one of its basic rules. From the thus formed holistic landscape like view of the things that you think about, you will later see clearly how thigs are.

*
If you want to think about a certain thing in the whole, colour it momentarily so that it rises to meet the eye and is so easy to notice without losing sight of its place in the whole.
When you then need to, or you want to think about something, clolour it momentarily with some colour that you find easy enough to notice, and take a look at it as if you were gardening, like I adviced you before. This way you see both the thing in question and its place in the world, which is very good for youyr understanding.

*
Concretical fact associations are an easy organised way to change from one subject to another and a way to arrange your picture of the whole.
You get your picture of the whole world arranged in practical ways if you use concretical fact associations to move about in it: our farm -> our tractor -> its repairwork laterly and in the near future -> the maney that the repair works cost -> the farming equipment shop -> what our neighbour bought last time from there -> his tractor -> their family altogether -> what we have like them and what different -> how each person lives in one’s own way -> the rainbow of life -> what is important in life -> happiness, and avoiding catastrophes -> understanding helping in reaching for one’s goals in life.

*
A nature view at the background helps you to conceive complex things.
Sometimes things get too complicated. At those times it is good if you can imagine a seen nature landscape or even a single detailed tree at the background of your thoughts, so that you can compare the thought to the much much much more complex nature view which is still easy to conceive. In other words, you place each detail of your thought next to some detail of the nature landscape, look first at the nature view and then as if there was nothing special to it, you look at the nature view’s style at the thought as if the thought were simple too – and it has thus become simple!

DEDUCTION, IN OTHER WODS MAKING PERCEPTIONS BASED ON YOUR EXPERIENCE OF LIFE ABOUT THINGS THAT YOU HAVE NOT EXPERIENCED:

*
Make generalizations and find things from your memory as if you were finding all spots of a certain colour or form from your environment: all such things in your vocabulary (-> finding words) or in your objective picture of the world (-> putting things to an objective form) or in what is available to build from (-> finding solutions).

*
Check where do things apply.
If you want to know things that you have no experience of, you will have to make generalisations and see where they apply, where they at least do not apply – and what would apply there?!
You generalize something by taking some single charachteristics of it and by paying attention only to them. For example: cats see well in dark -> seeing well in dark -> Well, if you see well in dark, you notice in darkness things that others with poorer eyesight cannot notice. -> Usefulness in hunting and in survival.
Now compare your generalisation to all the cases that you can find from your picture of the world: were your generalisation right? If not, you have typically forgotten to mention some important detail (“all animals whole eyes are healthy”). Fix it.
It is easiest to generalize very sure common sense truths, since the basic things of life are essential also in the world at large. Like: I need food. -> I people need food in order to stay alive. -> So arranging food for all is one of the most importanmt questions in the whole world.

PROBLEM SOLVING:

*
From a holistic view to details: what you need for a solution, where you could build it from, do you have those blocks, build it!
Many people try to solve problems by tyring what they could build from a certain set of available building blocks. If they do not succeed, they give up. An easier and more efficient way to solve problems is to solve them solution centeredly: Think what you would need for the solution, what kind of structures – you can lift them up from your memory by associations – and what you could build them from – that too you can do by lifting thepossible types of building blocks from your memory. Then just build it! This way you know what you need and how you can get it and so you are not wasting your time!

*
One cannot reach one’s thinking ability or objectivity by copying school like looks.
Humans have via the natural evolution adabted to a life in a close contact with the nature. So also our thinking ability gets support from doing practical work (-> gardening mode), using our senses (-> accurate perceptions) and our natural sense of place (-> a map). So objectivity cannot be reached by copying the looks of schooled thinkers or of the town environment. It has to be reached by living in harmony with our sensing nature which builds so a picture of the environment.
School likedness has gotten its main charachteristics from the written text, not from thinking. And the written word is just a means of marking things up. It is not a means of thinking!

*
Do not think by words. Think instead by the memories of experiencies and by holistic pictures!
Words are just a tool for communication. Words are not a way of thinking. Instead all our observations are made by the senses, by the feelings and sensations.
Words break things to an endless mosaic that one gets lost to. It looks complicated but it is not good for thinking.
One who thinks by words is like one who has an extremely narrow tunnel like eyesight: For example take a cartoon cylinder from which you can see through one thing at a time, like as if described by a word. It makes an enormous mosaic of even simple things, like your own room. But if you look wirthout such tunnel sight, without the cartoon cylinder, you can see everything at once and so understand much more via using such holistic pictures in your thinking instead of the tiny words.

*
Relax!
Sometimes one’s head is dizzy and it is difficult to think. That is often connected to tensing the middle part of your body, especially the neck, the shoulders, the back and the stomach area. So just relax: exercise, stretch, go to sauna or whatever. Try to make your social reklationshgips friendlier and less formal because that relaxes you profoundly, making you happier, more intelligent and wiser. Do not consider thinking hard work but think with enthusiasm!
You will remember things easier if you can emphatize with the point of view that you were using when you memorized the things. Emphaty too works better with a relaxed body and makes also your social skills better.
You cen remember things better if you are sincerely interested in the subject.

*
Remember to carry responsibility!
A sense of direction or a compass is for a traveller more important than speed. So pay attention especially to your choice of goals and valuyes that you follow. That affects your life much more than intelligence (speed) in itself!

AND THEN THERE ARE THE TOOLS

Start with what you are most sure about: that you are alive, you exist, you notice things and you react to them. And start with what science is most sure about: that we are living beings and that the living beings, i.e. the nature, and the artificial man-made things are of a different kind. So even if you notice nothing else, you can see that the world consists of biological and artificial parts. The biological parts used to form the healthy natural biosphere. The artificial parts are not fitted to form any whole, they are just useful to some purpose or another. So where the biological parts already by their very nature already form a whole, the artificial parts need to be optimised further, so as to create a better functioning whole, which consists of both natural and artificial parts.

PART III 
PARADISE

Through These Eyes

A GLOBAL PARADISE IS MILITARILY THE BEST OPTION

First of all I would like to remark that my idea of what moral is includes healthy self-defence. So if someone hits you you have the right to hit them back but not any worse than what their crime is. So moral this way isn't as naive and defenceless as non-violence. Even though I have heard one version of Gandhi's nonviolence principle (it was in a book that I was reading a while ago) being the noviolence, the positivity of love. That means nonviolence, love when watched from the holistic point of view and not the bearing of all wrong just in order to follow the rule of nonviolence untill everything is conquered by others by the force of arms. Holistic nonviolence means trying to achieve the best possible state for the whole, i.e. it means good moral. So it is not the tools that amtter, it is the end result, which should be good.
So if you get hit by others, try to cure the situation, whether you do it by the force of arms or by talking or by any other means, work sincerely for the goods of the whole. One side of that is having the good ones in power. So if you behave morally, you should take care that you get the dominant role. That is self-defence with a good moral and it is good for the future too, good for you and good for others since it is good to have the moral ones in power since they arrange things for the common good.

Huge Systems, Pure Power Play and the Fate of the Human Kind:
THE GLOBAL PARADISE OF A HEALTHY WORLD WINS!

Survival strategy:
Either: Be the winners
Or: Get the winners to be on your own side
If you choose a winning strategy, you are likely to achieve the latter if not even the former!

In short:
Biggest allegiancy gives you the strongest force, so ally world wide, in a way that is safe to you.
And health is the strongest arrangement produced by the evolution's competition, so choose the cultivation and safeguarding of good health as your competition strategy. (The concept of health can be generalised to situations including the artificialities in the world. It gives you the optimised arrangement of the whole.)

With the existence of technology the word "healthy" gets a new generalised meaning: a well arranged and fully functioning system. In what comes to the living beings this is the same as the old definition of health as natural fully functioning, as a product of evolution. In what comes to the technology, it means that the same principles that the nature found useful are useful also in optimising the technology and the  large systems consisting of both technology and of humans. - that there is no better option. But if there would be a some still better arrangement, we would adobt it of course...

I do not know where the possible weak points of my thoughts are. Everything should be surely objective. You should tell me where the possibilities for improvement are. I have tried to reach the most beautiful things that I know of, make them real and world wide, starting from an as cynical point of view as I can imagine i.e. from the completely value-free competition for power and benefit, and from all the nicer points of view that I know of. If things are even worse, i.e. evil ruling without other goals than just destruction, we can use the value-free competition to put the more moral ones, our own side into power, to let the global paradise wins. I have succeeded in this. I can even prove it for computers governing instead of lving beings and for the case that no material world exists and we are just spirits or some kind of intelligent constructions run inside a huge computer brain (The beneficality of the optimised solution to the whole does not demand that you would have been planned and especially fitted to that kind of whole by the evolution or by intelligent planning.). I do not know what more I could do, the rest is up to you.

In fact my main goal in writing has been to prove the following, so I will add the text here even if it does not fit well or is too cynical:

Starting from Sunzi's The Art Of War I can prove that a global paradise is the best option:
Sunzi says in the point about rolling stones that it is the nature of stones that "on a level ground they remain still but on a slope they move". Similarly the wise commander uses his men: it is the nature of the men that when they are truly motivated they act with force and when they are not motivated they do not act at all. The profoundnes of this principle is illustrated by the use of it in the major (i.e. its dimension is huge) point in the beginning of the Sunzi's book: "The people must agree with the goals of the government."
If we now take a look at the nature of the men in the light of our present day scientifical understanding of the world, we notice that the charachteristics of the men stem from the time when humans were still a part of the nature, of the healthy natural world. (You can compare this to the Tao.) It is the nature of healthy wholes that they try to cure themselves when wounded, so the men as parts of the world have as their motivational ground the making of the group as strong and flourishing as possible without it costing overly much to them. All the natural motivational factors of the men together with the aim for strenght and safety guide them toward best health and that means living as a healthy whole as a part of the healthy world. That is the safest and strongest choise which is also supported by our nature, it is a paradise upon Earth and the best ultimate goal for a military commander to choose. What kind of choises in what comes to the course of action and values to take that entails and why, I have discussed in my free book Power Politics Leads To Excellent Moral which is available at stores.lulu.com/khtervola but which might demand a some kind of registering first.

Natural rationality in the major goals in life, in the workings of the society and the world at large:
the optimised arrangement produced by the evolution:
* compassion -> human values -> health,
* justice -> each thing treated according to what it produces -> health of practises in this respect,
* carrying responsibility of the things that one affects -> guidability,
* sincerety in communication -> a correct picture of how things are -> guidability,
* holistic objectivity -> things treated according to their role in the world;
in other words: excellent moral is the optimised choise.

So let us take a young happy and healthy naturally beautiful (beauty tells of well functioning - see my other book or my pages about feelings) young maiden on a flowery meadow as an example of a paradise. You may ask: how is this a militartily strong way to arrange things? I must refer to my usual example of a wooden leg working less well than a real alive leg. Also stiff unreactive parts of the body and mind, of whatever alive thing, work less well than those parts as healthily working and reactive. So the young maiden is an example of healthy well functioning and since she has a rewarding social life too, she is a good social example to others about those healthy ways to live. The world being huge and complex, it does not matter whether you were given a strong manly structure or a "weak" female structure if you just can serve as a model of the best kind of way to live to others, since there are so very many of the others anyway. And the maiden isn't stiff like the men - she is alive and has an excellent understanding about life and about the world - see my page www.paradisewins.net/atmospheresthink.html. Well, this is a feministic perspective but should be militarily correct.

What is the use for an army from:
∑ An increased ability of its members?
∑ A better organisation of the whole?
∑ A better motivation?
∑ A better acceptability of its actions in the world at large?
∑ A real apprexiation of the rationality of its decisions from both the outsiders and insiders?
∑ An increased understanding and responsible action of its members?
This is what my thoughts: the health, excellent moral, the so called soft values and women can give to the army.

A question: What to do when hard reality (the existence of all kinds of evil, wars, lack of moral, cool calculating behaviour with a complete disregard for feelings and the good of others, etc.) meets the soft values (moral, feelings, religion, the values needed in upbringing children, etc.) ?
Then it is a matter of who is the strongest. That means that one must increase one's own strength via health and the strength of one's group(s) via their health and the number of one's allies via as many allegiancies as possible. So the answers given by the soft values apply, but one must be keen on noticing who is on one's own side and who not, so social skills matter a lot. Between the groups there is a "war" of some kind, it depends on the groups how much figting there will be. A society agreement like picture of the situation would help one to see how much one can trust each party and how one so can form the maximum, best amount of allegiancies. For example one can form rules of behaviour inside the allegiancies that take care that people behave all right even if they are not themselves moral. But defence orientedness is needed. Inside a big group tha often happens via specialization while individual evil ones try to fight on all fronts at the same time. The samer happens when the level of moral in a group is low: the individuals get forced to a fight against each other and so the remaining part of their forces is smaller, producing less strenght and a lower standard of living.
How to go about this fight in practise then? You might agree with Sunzi who says that "The victory giving battle is like a stone smashing to an egg." But just take care that you are not so the egg and the stone the enemy, i.e. generalise enough in order to see the true consequences of your actions: if you attack women and children thus making the war more disastrous than what it used to be like, the others will do the same to you and so you have lost safety instead of gaining. The point is to not to break any rules of the society agreement but to fight with excellent moral, opposing only evil things and things which lead to evil if they are allowed (like pasifism to the extreme of allowing all evil), thus you see the targets of aggression and the things to defend and the motivation behind your actions and those of others. What is needed after that is strenght, intelligence, knowledge and skill. That you do not gain by attacking the innocent, you gani it by fighting with your true enemies. A good way to understand the ground for things is to use the islands of the society agreement like picture of the world: all things being created and supported by certain factors, persons and/or groups: just oppose or support each kind of island's supporters. Thus you can build anything and safeguard things valuable to you, while seeing in which way to prevent the disastrous things.

In theory it goes like this: suppose that you meet a mean guy or a group of mean guys and find yourself threatened by them, then you should look for someone higher in the hierargy than what they are or for some more intelligent mean guy who is interested in one's own benefit. Then you could use these efficiency grounds of mine to speak for justice, human values and responsible behaviour. If you find someone who really trusts objective estimates of things, that MIGHT solve your problem...

One can optimise wholes in practise a charachteristic by charachteristic: if they are very different, they are independent, and if they are very similar, one can optimise them the same way. So choose from the following what health is (always the first option in the list):
strong or weak,
sensitive and intelligent or unsensitive and idiotic,
allies witha huge group or in conflict with a huge group,
follows one's feelings i.e. follows one's own instructions of usage or does not follow feelings i.e. does not follow one's own instructions of usage,
allies to build the strongest group possible to the extend that is prepared to sacrifice one's own life to protect it or does not care to invest in the strenght of the group,
social and so able to take the most out of encounters or unsocial and not able to get anything much from encounters,
follows rationality or does not follow rationality,
thinks of the whole or not.
You may ask: how can one then ally if one is a predator. For this see the answer in my own Gaia theory in my Gaia pages. One way to ally is to ally with the group instead of with its individuals: to eat away only the ill ones in order to increase the health of the population and to live healthily so as to by one's example support healthy ways of living in the society. One can also ally on the parts that one is not in conflict with anyone, like for example a murderer who is against rape does...

So if soft values really are a wiser choise, how do they exactly win over the hard values? In my opinion one needs the hard values too: the safeguarding of good. But the point is that the soft values, especially good moral, are the rules in how to arrange the whole and not the hard values, especially not evil as a rule. Moral used to be a matter of defending good. In that sense moral is still the correct choise. But moral which is almost equated with pacifism suits inside a group of allies, not among all.

So maybe you believe that health of all the wholes that you belong to, is the best alternative to you. But what about having enemies? Make their moral a condition for their health, i.e. demand health of their relatuinship to the whole world as a prequisite for their own health. Then they cannot use the fact that they are to a large extend healthy themselves unhealthily in what comes to the rest of the world. In other words: do not give the evil ones too much room to live and to ruin your life, the lives of us all. A happy moral way to live builds a better world for all of us, so it is good to let it rule, even if you are not all that moral yourself - yet!

Then why is the paradise here a global one and not for your own group only? You are a part of the world, so your relationship to the rest of the world matters a lot. If you are for a paradise for all, you obviously ally with the motivation of the enemies too, even if their own side isn't able to ally that much... But what matters especially, is that you should follow the most beneficial guidelines in the world at large in order to benefit from them, in order to win as much as possible in the future and to lose as little as possible in the future. If you do not follow justice in the world at large, your own side may degenerate since you do not always support the best alternatives. If you do not allow human values for those who aim at the global paradise, you lose allies. But of course you must demand that the enemies must be moral enough before you can support them. Anyway, the level of the whole is important and just in that ( and in other things too) it is important to follow the best choise, the moral paradise movement. Otherwise people would copy the strategy that they considert the most intelligent and the leader's too "selfish looking" choises would be repeated in their own group which would weaken the group, see the page /justice.html (?).

Suppose that the worst happened: that the big devil did exist and got to rule the world. Why would we still have hope?
Devil worships evil or then he is power oriented. In the latter case he listens to the optimising of wholes.
In the former case we can conquer the world from him by the force of arms and by the force of optimising.
In any case the healthy world: a global paradise i.e. good would win.

THE EXTREME POSSIBILITY OF ALL BEING SPIRITS OR ALL LIVING IN A VIRTUAL WORLD ("NO MATERIAL WORLD"):
THINGS STAY THE SAME IN WHAT COMES TO THE BEST OPTION IN HOW TO ARRANGE THINGS.
THE SAME APPLIES IF THERE ARE LOTS OF ARTIFICIALITIES IN THE WORLD.

What if we are spirits or virtual, what if the world doesn't consist of atoms, molecules, we not of cells, what if everything such is just faked, how are things then, what happens to all our deductions about the usefulness of Gaia? Things stay the same since we are still some kind of entities, which have the same characteristics as wholes, so the theory about wholes and fractures in wholes stays still valid, and Gaia is the most beneficial option.
(If everything were of spirit and the world at least partly created by our beliefs about it, that could appear to us modern people as a virtual world.)

Also, if whoever would rule a virtual or spirit world, the ruler would need guidability - that means honesty, objectivity with a holistic view and true justice - and well-functioning of the parts and of the systems and subsystems - that means health (since healthy parts function well while broken parts do not function at all) and naturality (since our functioning is based on the natural ways of functioning and on nothing else) which mean at the level of individuals human values.
Putting each part of a system to its correct place and correct role in the whole, so as to get the whole to function as well as possible, means health and naturality of the whole and its parts and structures since that's what their functioning is based on.

It is quite easy to figure out what is the best way to arrange a virtual world for just about any purpose: respecting health of the individuals (human values) and of the systems (including naturality and moral) while having natural hierargy in who can affect what. This should be easy for all to learn and to understand:

NATURAL HIERARGIES
There is a natural hierargy in human societies: the way that is according to real justice, for the good of all. If we get apprexiated for our good sides, they get supported for the good of all, and others can take us as an example for themselves without losing position at all. If we lose position when we do not according to justice deserve a good position, our bad sides, especially irresponsibility, get discouraged. When the one who understands better and carries responsibility is in a deciding position things get done well for the good of all. This is possible by using many many partial hierargies at the same time: one for each subject, skill, thing to decide, piece of knowledge,... Correcting one's own errors is a thing to value and to be demanded from all, especially from those in a deciding position. This creates a natural repair mechanism for the society and is an ideal way to arrange things.
CARRYING RESPONSIBILITY of the whole and using a good picture of the whole with all emphazies and roles of things right, guide the whole toward the good of all. One is not allowed to affect things which one does not carry responsibility over.
There is a saying in Finland: "Honour those who truly deserve respect." (Meaning: even when it is an unorthodox choise, and do not give honour according to custom to those who do not according to justice deserve it).
This is the way that we organize things in my homecountry Finland in North Europe.

Let us suppose that we are all virtual, all the humans, all the animals etc., maybe even theUFO:s adding a flavor of their own to that mixture. Each human is virtualised to one's own virtual world with its own rules, everything run by huge superhypercomputers or however. How does that enrmous huge complex whole work? What would make sense for the individuals to do in such a world? What are the dynamics of that system? Each human being is different, so we have to take a look at what we all have in common, take a look at the human nature. All dynamics 9in connection with the living beings is born out of what the living beings are like. So if someone wants power or workers or whatever, they have to count on the human nature. That's what gives the functioning needed for reaching any kind of goals. In that one must remember the value of human values: a healthy one works better than a broken one. Also justice and true objectivity are musts for the buidlders of such systems and for those who want to benefit from their dynamics: treat each part according to what it is like, so you can best benefit from it. Read the texts about rational moral! … So it stays valid that Gaia is the best option, the answer to the question of hgow to arrange one's forces best and how to best arrange the rules in the virtuyal worlds. And Gaia for Gaia is the answer to how the individuals and groups could best benefit themselves and their goals in such an enermously complex and seemingly arbitrarily arrangeable world.

A REBELLION IN HELL
Suppose that you were in hell and wanted to get out of there but there is no way: just the hell everywhere. The only way to get out of the hell would be to change the hell to a livable place but that seems quite impossible, things being as they are.

In hell there is fighting all over the place. So you can easily find people eager for power since power gives you protection, wealth and might over the others.
Suppose that you knew about optimising the basics of what I know.
Then you could start with a group eager for power and success and optimise it toward best success:
Those of the group who damage the group would be strictly punished. Those who benefit the group would be rewarded.
The relationships of the group to others would be decided by the leaders only. Those who do not follow orders can cause unneeded conflicts would be strictly punished, since the group loses its strength in conflicts while at peacetime it can develop in strength via a better health. 
It is beneficial for the group to ally with large powers, so it will do so - maybe even with God too. Wjatever it is that brings the most force, must be used fully.

Optimising this way one gets a group which is used to justice and peace and which one can optimise further toward a better survival. Holistic objective thinking, honesty in communication and demanding responsibility about all the consequences of one's actions create a system, group, which can guide its actions in the most intelligent and wise way according to each situation. Respecting human values keeps the persons in the group healthy and makes so the group stronger.
Optimising this way you will get the most optimised group, in other words: the strongest possible one: which is
a moral paradise movement! since the above guidelines add to a perfect moral of the kind that evolution or God planned us for, and which so is the road to which our feelings and instincts guide us: the paradise like direction.

One could of course start with a paradise movement, moral people etc. if such are available - or with a combination of all these kinds of beings.

Outrageous but true! We are the movement which will come to rule everywhere: the paradise movement. We are the road via which good will win over evil, God over devil. And it is so very easy: healthy works better than a broken one, so a paradise is the winning option. It is also a moral option, according to feelings and rational planning of future, to the soul of things and to the will of God.

THE GLOBAL PARADISE WINS
So has it always been and so will it forever be...
Only if the world is guided by what we think and if we think, like many have thought this far, mistakenly that the above is not true, then we will guide the world to a wrong, unbeneficial direction and there will be no paradise. But if there is a free competition of all the answers and true objectivity governing, it will be a paradise which wins!

This should mean that as time passes we will eventually end up in a global paradise much like the one in the beginning of time - now we have the technology tools but it ought not to prevent us from reaching the paradise - if we just trust objective thinking enough. This time the paradise will be WITH the technology but otherwise very much like the paradise in the beginning of time since the instructions of usage of humans have not changed and the natural healthy goals of humans still make sense from the point of view of survival and that's why we need the Gaia paradise from the point of view of modern competition. See for example the page /increasingintelligence.html about the connection of academical or engineering work efficiency and natural&emotional life. Or my book Work Efficiency and Likings which you can download for free at stores.lulu.com/khtervola

THIS IS THE BIGGEST QUESTION IN THE WHOLE WORLD!
A task for the reader: Can you think a bigger thought than this one? Think of an as important thought as you can and then compare to this one: was your thought already a part of this thought, how do these truths connect? The task of thinking is to affect as much toward good as possible in as important questions as possible... If you cannot find an even bigger thought (and anyway) please share this thought with others too!
For a religious answer too see www.paradisewins.net/Godstory.html - it is quite outrageous but in the light of the thoughts on that page it seems that the above thought could be even the reason for God's existence and especially to the purpose of our existence, to the goals of God creating us.
I added the story here:
Once upon a time there was a God, not the highest one of all but an ordinary ruler of one world. The God was worried about the state of the universe since there was too much evil around. Beings didn't seem to understand why to not to be evil. So the God decided   it was the fate of the God   to try to cure all the countless worlds. In order to do so the God created a world, and created us in it, not to be spirits and capable of much like most of the beigs were, but to be of flesh and bone, and with a lesser intelligence, so that everything would be clear for all to see.
Now in this world we manifest how good is stronger than evil, because good means cultivating good health and evil means needlesss breaking, and because we all understand that a healthy one works better than a broken one. From a technology hell with evil around we have found a road back to the paradise which God created: it is the cultivation of good health of all scales. It is what makes us strong and happy and brings us the best intelligence that we can have. It is what saves this world and all the others.
One might add that if God created the world, God created it this way perfect.

A HEALTHY WORLD WORKS BEST

To be clear: Here are two thoughts:
The first thought is about the strenght of healthy ones and about the healthy world being the best functioning arrangement tested by the evolution. (How does evolution which works on the level of the parts bring a tested arrangement of the whole? Those who ally in good ways benefit the most, from getting a healthy group - just like a high standard of living benefits the citizens. The strongest group is one in which all its members cooperate for the common good without any unfair arrangements - see my pages at www.paradisewins.net/rationalmoral.html)

The truth that a healthy one works best is an ages old truth, proven by the evolution, created by the evolution. How well does it apply at these times of modern technology? First there were the requirements of the humans, then the rerquirements of the technology but now the technology has become so far developed that it has become more and more adabted to the requirements of humans which have become to count again in questions of optimising the systems. Answering the needs of humans keeps humans fit to work. That means keeping humans healthy by following human values.

How sure is this thought about a healthy whole working better than a broken whole then? It is among other things a common sense truth, so our everyday experience about everything backs it up - such is an enermous amount of evidence. It also agrees with our scientifical picture of the world - as far as I know: at the very least it is a hypothesis which could be proven to be true. The thought is also a part of the traditional Finnish speaking culture of Finland, so it has been proven by time and by the understanding of some five million unusually rational people. It is also a thought which agrees with our feelings and our natural sense of atmospheres, which should indicate that it is a way to see the world which evolution has proved useful and so true. So it should be an as sure truth as possible for a "new" thought to ever be.

With the existence of technology the word "healthy" gets a new generalised meaning: a well arranged and fully functioning system. It means among other things that each thing is treated according to what it is like - that means true objectivity and something like justice. Also that each part is unbroken so that one can optimise the system - in questions of human beings that means following human values.
Also for solving the problems with the concept of the healthy biosphere which I call Gaia and about Gaia being the winning option, use the above definition for good health and relate that only afterwards to what the nature is like: so you will find the balance points between opposites, like for example the purpose of competition is to keep the populations as healthy as possible and to develop new strategies, not to destroy everything in short-sighted excessive ruthless competition. Some principles which are needed in this are in my texts about the rationally grounded moral and in my Gaia pages.

If it really is, like it seems, beneficial to ally, why people do not always do so? One must ally for the best health of the whole, sometimes that means conflicts too and sometimes it is mistaken to mean conflicts. But often the reason is just that we have become confused and stopped from following our feelings fully. And our understanding is often too little to bring us the whole way toward full cooperation.

It is easy to optimise any whole: seek to maximise its health: its functioning is based on its health parts and healthy substructures and structures. This means minimising its brokedness since broken parts do not work at all. And already optimised whole, like a biological whole which has been optimised by the evolution, is contradictionless, so leaving some parts unactive does not make the whole function better but instead lessens the functioning of the whole since the parts support each other and the functioning of the whole. (For example the thinking ability of humans is supported by the sense of sight, wandering in nature and sensitivity to atmospheres - see section II about feelings. Similarly the parts of a well working society support each other - see my pages about interconnectedness: see section I about moral.) This method of optimising wholes by keeping them non-broken and healthy applies to all wholes of all sizes. Since the biggest things matter the most, one should start by keeping the biggest scale healthy and unbroken - that means peace as a strong value. Such peace means most peace in the world in the long run and not the avoidance of all conflicts untill evil has conquered the world and there is something like a civil war all over the world. Also fair play is typical to a healthy whole. Justice which aims at respecting human values - live and let others live! is a rule to follow. So one can let the different strategies compete about which one is the most beneficial to the whole and support just such strategies while punishing those who damage the system. Defending just one's own good isn't the thing to value but to defend the greatest good of the whole, including peace and large scale cooperation. Via the health of the whole one gets most prosperity since just good srategies are counted on and bad ones dropped away. So it is good also from the selfish point of view to act for the benefit of the whole more than one acts for one's own short-term good. This way one can build friendly relationships to others which will be beneficial in the long run but also in the short term.

What about the human goals in life?How do they connect to the optimising of a system which has both natural and artificial parts? Humans were created by the evolution and have not by their nature been adabted to the existence of the artificialities. So the human goals oin life have been created by the natural human goals in life which seek to keep both humans and their environment in full health. Our thinking takes the artificialities into account, our goals stay unchanged. If it is the goal of the systems get enough working ability and/or to keep humans under control, they need to answer human needs, in other words safeguard good health of humans and their environment. That means respecting the human goals in life.
Also if the rulers, be they some kind of a cool intellect like robots and computers running wild or whatever (This refers to aliens and to technology, not to cool calculating living beings, since even though one could argue this way also about living beings, there are much more common factors between living beings tying us all into one big allegiance for a life according to our nature since that is the only kind of life that we can bear. Our needs are alike.), if the rulers are not interested in humans as a working force or as happiness as a goal in itself, they have their own fate to think about. Maybe they will some day meet someone stronger than they are, so they have to be prepared for that too. Then it might be that they would be treated according to the same principles that they treat others with. Not destroying others needlessly they might not them selves be destroyed. If they killed us, they might be considered without the protection of the "articla" in the society agreement which says that all the likes of them should be protected. The society agreement says that you buy your rights by the obligations that you follow. If you are too dangerous to others because you do not protect or respect any values, you will be killed by the others who want a safer world. So even robots as rulers should respect our right to healthy life. So a healthy way for them to build a system is to treat humans fairly and according to human values, giving them lots of freedom to moral action.

The extend to which we are dependent on our environment makes it understandable how our own well being is dependent on the health of the whole and how consequently selfishness equals moral. We are concretically dependent on our environment if we are, like I claim since it was and still is the most beneficial choise during the evolution, by our nature parts of a bigger whole, of the whole biosphere in good health. But even if we weren't, our well being is affected by the amount of conflicts in our environment: how much we get harmed or benefitted by the environment and how well the environment works together to produce a higher standard of living and how much it consequently can help us toward better life when it decides to do so. So whether or not we are parts of a bigger whole by our nature, we are in practise parts of a bigger whole and our whole life is dependent on the relationship that we have to the whole.

What means totally value-free optimizing without preconditions:
It means interest in what gives most force, power,
what gives protection and how,
what is the best strategy,
what must one take into account about the future,
how to arrange one's relationships to other powers,
which solutions win and why,
what is the most benefical thing,
what must be most feared and how to protect oneself,
who are the benefical allies etc.
In this analyzis one needs extremely good objective thinking and openeyedness toward all options, both the dangerous and also to the non-dangerous ones - it is the creation of force which is important in this power analyzis, so if soft means give any advantage that too must be used fully.

For example even the softest of things: feelings, tell things of importance from the tough point of view: If one takes things that cause very strong feelings, one can see that they connect to things which are important in the hard point of view. For example death has a dark atmosphere and is clearly harmful in that. And a childhood with all one's needs answered has a light reddish atmosphere and is clearly a strong ground to build upon the future. Even feelings which tell of the importance of feelings themselves make sense after this: they are signs that we should take big factors like these fully into account. Following feelings in important questions makes the society strong, since feelings tell of the importance of the major factors of life - they bind the level of our picture of the world to the level of practise makin it possible to act in a way that makes sense.

It turns out that the healthy world is the most beneficial option. It is the species which need to survive in the long run, so there is lots of variation inside each species to ensure the adabtability of that species to different living environments. Consequently there needs to be a healthy amount of competition so as to drop away the strategies that are not suited to the present day situation. The same competition makes adabtation possible whenever it is needed. But too much of competition would result in short-sighted decline of the population, in other words the population would not be fit to live any more or at least not to flourish.
Today there is lots of cultural "competition", some cultures vanishing away, the multitude of cultures changing to a "single species ecosystem". Such reduces the variation to almost zero. It is not a wise strategy in the light of the evolution.
Even the competition between those who trust technology or other sides of life, should not be so harsh as to erase away the good sides of each strategy. The natural strongest option would be to ally: to develop technology while keeping the contact with nature and the wisdom of other areas of life (even where the science is not able to follow).

Apply very thoroughly to everything the truths that you can be sure of. That way you reach much farther with your thoughts than what would be otherwise possible for you. Remember that the level of the whole is especially important.
One basic truth that we all humans and animals, maybe even plants understand with all our being and which should so be very sure indeed, is that a healthy one works better than a broken one. One can reach very far with this simple truth, proving that it is the healthy world which will win in the modern competition too, only with this time all the technology around but without it affecting things in what comes to the living beings.
The health of the world isn't as problematic concept as it might seem at first glance. We are nowadays far away from the full health of the world, that is true. But things haven't been this way for so long. We can argue about wheher the world earlier was healthy either, whether it has ever been completely healthy. Still, that does not remove the point in aiming for full health and I think that that goal is deeply embedded in our genes, in our very nature. Since full health means full functioning. We can think of helath as a direction to aim at instead of as a state that had to dominate over time in order to9 have any effect (what an absurd thought this latter is! Since ths is not a question of habit or social custom but of what is the best way to arrange things, i.e. a question of the objective truth which does not need to have been the practise, especially not for a long time, in order to exist and affect things. The strongest one will win even if there has not been anyone that strong before.). So from the scale of your own life you understand the importance of some principles in building or cultivating anything. Now just apply them to the large scale too.

These thoughts are not as complicated as they seem. You just have to apply thoroughly to everything what you understand for sure: A HEALTHY SYSTEM WORKS BETTER THAN A BROKEN SYSTEM
A healthy system works better than a broken system. And several harmonious forces sum up to a bigger force than a separate one of the forces in question.
As grounds for the comparison use these divisions at least:
* co-operation (brings force while none lost to conflicts) versus lot of conflicts (lost force, lots of damage, nothing gained by allegiancies)
* unified harmonic (the parts supporting each other and the whole which in turn often supports the parts)
versus scattered one that does not work together to form a well-working whole (nothing gained from the presence of the others)
* healthy versus broken (check in your field of experience)
* on a healthy ground (trustworthy), steady versus unsure, unsteady
* long-lasting (usable for a long time) versus easily scattered
* strong (can bear many things) versus weak structure
* according to motivation, feelings and the intellect & the idea in things (according to these forces/guiding factors) versus against them
This is a basic truth and has a very wide area of validity. So apply it very thoroughly to everything!

Since there are so many perspective which support my view here, my whole social environment tends to go totally ashtray, supporting the only remaining opposing view of evil as a value in itself (and not just as a tool) - instead of even the other major force of the demands of the use of technology (in other things as workers work efficiency) i.e. the force that must be counted as a separate direction with some connections to the goal of a healthy world. How to count this: attach a gummystring to the goals of systems from each part of the world: the more essential the part is, the stronger the string - even if that essentiality comes because of tool value, like the value of human ways for a selfish computer like mind.
So, PLEASE avoid the pitfall that they have fallen into! My thought here is the truth and agrees with your very own goals too, so please let this truth be as it is and SUPPORT it. At least do not oppose solely for the sake of opposing or for not trusting me enough, since so you end up opposing yourself and the things that YOU value. This can be the truth, even if this is new to you and to your environment!

THE HEALTHY WORLD IS A PARADISE

The second thought is about a healthy one being happy and about the healthy natural life in nature bringing happiness, so that the healthy natural world would be a paradise.

1. Full health and natural healthy happiness go hand in hand, so the healthy world should be a happy world.
2. Fullfilling the natural living requirements of a living being should make the being happy, so the healthy natural world should be a paradise.
3. Feelings can be seen as forces in life. Negative feelings repel negative things and situations away from our lives, repel things that are harmful to our health, to the health of the society or the environment or to the health of the ways of living. Positive feelings bring us toward things which are beneficial to us, to our health, binding us to the healthy natural ways of living. With completely healthy ways of living the world must thus be full of binding feelings, of happiness and love, and without repelling feelings, without suffering. So the completely healthy natural world must be a paradise. So a paradise is more a way of life than just a place!

Since the time begun, has our true nature placed a call upon us. A call to live a full happy life which gives the best survival for us and for our offspring. What makes us strong are the things which keep us fit, which give us a full life and happiness. What makes us weak, are catastrophes, the reasons why we become weak and suffering. We suffer in order to avoid those things. We feel love in order to reach for what is best for us, for our survival. The message of our feelings is the same as the message of our understanding. Like the love for life is in the very nature of living beings, it is in their structure that just such life that their feelings guide them toward gives the best functioning, best survival, keeps them most fit for work and is the most rational choise. So if there is a strongest one wins competition, just natural life according to feelings and understanding is the winning solution of how to arrange things.

What is at the heart of each human being, is a wish for a better life. What is at the heart of each human society, is a wish for a better life. What we all long for, what we dream about, what scares us, all comes to the one and same thing: what life is like, i.e. how our all kinds of needs are met. If we could have a better idea of what a paradise is like, we would have a map to a better life, and if paradise really is the winning option in the modern competition, all the others would be willing to choose a paradise too. These texts aim to give more room for life, to lead to better ways of living, to a life according to feelings, a full life, a way of life, which is a paradise in fact.

A TRUTH WHICH IS SO VERY OLD
THAT IT IS IN THE VERY NATURE OF THINGS AND OF THE WORLD

A HUMAN BEING FORMS AN UNIFIED WHOLE WITH ONE'S LIVING ENVIRONMENT.
"All things are bound together. All things connect. What happens to the Earth, happens to the children of the Earth. Man has not woven the web of life. He is but one thread of it. Whatever he does to the web, he does to himself." said the indian chief Seattle.
Whatever we do, want to do, feel motivated toward, is meaningful in just the larger picture of life, of the lives of us all, of the world at large.

The healthier the pieces of our natural living environment (including the society) are and the better they are at their right places, the better we function, the happier we are.

The amount in which we have reached the Gaia paradise, determines what life is like to us and in what kind of shape we are and so what life feels like to us.

We are by our nature parts of the whole world. So we are healthy just when we are interconnected healthily and naturally with the rest of the world. If we are treated as separate, that connection gets broken and consequently we are broken in what comes those our interconnected sides and so our functioning suffers a lot. This can be seen in how the state of the world and the state of the society etc. affect our own chances in life and our feelings and our motivation, our picture of the future. It can also affect in more subtle ways of which we are not necessarily aware of - see my example at www.paradisewins.net/increasingintelligence.html.

Saving the world
It is a part of living a full life to express oneself. One area of life in which to express oneself is thinking and so influencing the society, being moral so. We have the ability to think in order to influence in as big question as possible as much toward good as possible. And that is what gives the most satisfaction. So working for the common good of the human kind isn't a burden, it gives a deep feeling of satisfaction, a feeling of belonging, a feeling of security, rationality and happiness because of living a full life.

A Way to Save The World
Please spread this view:
THE GLOBAL PARADISE OF A HEALTHY WORLD WILL WIN!

A healthy whole works much much better than the same whole as broken.

And full health and happiness go hand in hand.

Outrageous but true:
Applying this to the whole world, one gets the result that in a strongest one wins competition the healthy natural world is the strongest option,

i.e. the healthy natural world should be the winning option over any other kind of world.

And that the healthy natural world is a paradise.

In other words, IT IS A GLOBAL PARADISE WHICH WINS if there is a competition of all possible arrangements and competition strategies, including the very militaristic and incredibly evil torture-oriented ones, still it is the world wide paradise movement which wins!

THIS IS A THOROUGHLY THOUGHT OF VIEW
This is a thoroughly thought of view. I have an unusually great capacity to objective thinking and I have thought this through from many sides, from all that I come to think of, like you will see if you bother to read this page through and take a look at my two books.
The above are the general guidelines of what I have ended up - they are not just a mistaken common sense view od what one would think the first time that one comes to think of the question. On the contrary: they are the end result of many long chains of thoughts which just happens to ber understandable by the common sense.

(Examine the motivational factors, the guiding forces of humans and the guiding principles of the other forces in the world and ensure by sharing information (=this theory of mine for example) that they all will lead toward a better world, toward the best possible world, which will also be the winner in the modern competition:)

29 POINTS OF VIEW WHICH SUPPORT THE GLOBAL PARADISE OF THE COMPLKETELY HEALTHY WORLD AS THE BEST OPTION FROM EACH OF THEM

K. Gibran (a famous writer from Lebanon): " I have chosen both the joys of this world and peace in the world to come. Because I feel in my heart that the Upmost Poet wrote just one poem and its structure is perfect."

The concept of health is good for fitting together all the different viewpoints:
1) POWER (health gives strenght),
2) BENEFIT (health gives a strong and well arranged working force and consequently a high standard of living from which to benefit, healthy goals give a strong motivation),
3) FREEDOM (live and let others live is a rule to follow in order to achieve a maximum amount of freedom for everyone and a healthy society in this sense),
4) CONTROL (the health of practises makes people agree with the practises and creates no opposing forces),
5) life according to FEELINGS (healthily according to feelings is a part of the full health),
6) MORAL (moral means guarding the good health of the whole world, evil means needless breaking),
7) SCIENCE (a healthy animal is the fittest),
8) most RELIGIONs (a healthy world / a paradise and good moral are things to aim at),
9) COMPUTER logic (healthy = fully functioning = times 1, broken = non-funtioning = times 0),
10) COMMON SENSE (health is a common sense concept which all know well),
11) the UNBRINGING OF CHILDREN (those who bring up children are typically for healthy ways of living and good moral),
12) the views of the TRADITIONAL Finnish culture and propably of most other CULTURES too (it is good to cultivate good health and stupid to break needlessly),
13) a view capable of HANDLING LARGE INTERCONNECTED SYSTEMS (health is a good concept which can be generalised to all kinds of systems),
14) a SEXuality oriented view (what could be more attractive than health and happiness),
15) the points of view of aiming at MANliness or WOMANliness (healthy natural life according to emotions is what the charm and capacity of each sex is based on),
16) the view that NO MATERIAL WORLD exists (the wholes stay unchanged and the truth about healthy versus broken functioning stays valid),
17) the wish to PROTECT NATURE (health of the world means among other things the protection of nature),
18) the wish to DEVELOP TECHNOLOGY (a healthy life in a nature environment should bring the best ground for theoretical intelligence - see my pages www.paradisewins.net/increasingintelligence.html and www.paradisewins.net/interconnectedness.html) and
19) the need to SECURE THE FUTURE.
20) a picture of humans according to which there is NO need for anyone to do experiments on humans like those during the HOLOCAUST
21) the hopes of exhausted WORKERS NEEDING REST and variation to their lives
22) the dream of just about all SCHOOL CHILDREN of more life and less dry school like things (see my book Work Efficiency and Likings for the rationality of feelings and the role of atmospheres in thinking) (This is my weakest point.)
23) the goal of solving the FIGHT BETWEEN GOOD AND EVIL in a positive way via the concept of health - which should give you what you want or even more...
24) the SOVINIST point of view of wanting everything to be well grounded on hard values too (see my two books!)
25) the FEMINIST point of view of wanting respect for women's values: for feelings and moral (see my two books for the fitting together of these last two!)
26) hard WAR like rationality i.e. pure power play like if evil got to rule the world and there would be a fight over who is the strongest (health gives strength)
27) a view completely according to feelings and even the sense of BEAUTY
28) It is a view that could PREVENT people being CONTROLled BY the force of TECHNOLOGY etc. in a way that is in contradiction with the freedom of individuals or moral. (Health of the whole i.e. high moral is the most beneficial way to arrange things.)
29) ONE'S OWN GOOD, so that the harder one reaches for any goal or the harder one is pushed toward any direction, the more moral and positive for happiness one becomes (Health and allying with the health of the world = excellent moral, gives the strongest allegiancy.)

All these 28 viewpoints support the global paradise of a healthy world as the very best option when wacthed from that point of view.

Why happens this to be so? Is it just an unlikely coincidence? No: it is a truth which we can well trust since the EVOLUTION has shaped us so that our health and health of the society are what our nature, our feelings, instincts (= directions) and understanding (= a map, directed only because we have the goal of answering our needs which the feelings and instincts too help to answer) together, guide us toward and what gives us, the society and the world at large its best possible functioning.

MANY POINTS OF VIEW
Since there are so many different viewpoints here, the perspectives on this page are very different indeed, so that you may find it convenient to jumb over some and return to them later if you want or need to.
There is a lot in common with many of these viewpoints so that it is possible to handle many of them at a time and then unifie them all to this one single conclusion of the global paradise of the completely healthy world being the best option from each and every of them.

NO PARADISE WITHOUT MORAL

But there will be no paradise without excellent moral. One cannot keep up a paradise without excellent moral and one cannot build a paradise without moral. Moral meand cultivating and safeguarding good (That is just what good menas: things that cultivcate the paradise direction, like the avoidance of catastrophes, the supporting of practises that lead the world toward better, etc.)and resisting evil = things that might prevent or even break the paradise. So the prequisite for all who want to live in a paradise is to cultivate excellent world wide moral in their lives: to cultivate the health of the world, the health of its practises with all their might.

What then is moral in this sense? Moral turns out to be a relatively simple matter. It means absolute justice, objective thinking with a holistic view, honesty and human values while carrying responsibility about the whole and about all big matters.

Watch my video about how to achieve a perfect moral very easily.

GOOD OUGHT TO WIN OVER EVIL

Good ought to win over evil in a strongest one wins competition, like the evolution was. To see this clearly, let s go through the good tough sides of moral step by step:

Human values bring a stronger force than no or too little human values.
Objective thinking with a holistic view brings a better arranged group than lesser quality thinking or no objectivity at all.
Honesty makes it possible to see how things are and so it is more benefical than lies as a practise in a society.
Justice gets the society arranged for the common good and is so useful while unjustices fail to support good things and support harmful things instead. So unjustice is a much less benefical practise in a society or group than justice.
Carrying responsibility helps to get at least the main things well, so it is more benefical than irresponsibility.
So good moral would win in a strongest one wins competition.

MORAL IS THE MOST BENEFICAL OPTION!
Lots of allies -> the force of masses
No conflicts in the large scale -> no forces spent needlessly to war etc.
Doing things according to their nature = according to how they really function
Correct feedback optimizes and corrects errors and weak points away

Use all of your understanding in the largest scale! Remember the value of cooperation, in other words of peace and prosperity and safety forever.

Natural rationality in the major goals in life, in the workings of the society and the world at large:
the optimised arrangement produced by the evolution:
* compassion -> human values -> health,
* justice -> each thing treated according to what it produces -> health of practises in this respect,
* carrying responsibility of the things that one affects -> guidability,
* sincerety in communication -> a correct picture of how things are -> guidability,
* holistic objectivity -> things treated according to their role in the world;
in other words: excellent moral is the optimised choise.

Since all do not see this themselves, there may still be some doubt left, So I will go through the problems and classify them according to the above principles and other cost-benefit analysis factors that they break against:

Please check part one about the dangers (crimes) feared and about explanations why moral is a better choise than them.

MORAL
Human values take care that the parts of the biological systems stay in good health, so it is an important thing in evolution s competition and in God s plan. Like I mentioned already, our feelings are connected to keeping us healthy. So human values help to give room to our feelings.

Objective thinking, honesty and justice take care that each thing is treated acoording to what it is like which is very important to the functioning of the system. They make it possible to put each part to its best place in the system. Those with good sides from which others cab kearn, get a good position for the benefit of all. And those with bad sides, especially irresponsibility, get punished to a poor position so that their harmful qualities get discouraged. This means having very many partial hierargies: one for each subject, skill, thing to decide, piece of knowledge,  Always the ones who understand best and carry responsibility about the consequences are in a deciding role.

In doing things intentionally the main point is to get the main things right. That means that the biggest matters of the largest scale and of the long run are especially important. Likewise are all questions of life and death important. Here one must remember that 100 000 lives is much much more importat than just one life and that the number of people in the human kind is 6 000 000 000 lives which is about 10 000 000 000 lives which is another 100 000 times the 100 000 lives and so even an much much bigger question than the huge question of 100 000 lives. So the large scale things affect enermously more than the small scale things. Thew large scale consists of the small scale, of its added effect. Our feelings should go with the large scale!

Evil is weak
1. The functioning of the human is connected to the body. An evil person is in conflicts with ones environment and so his/her body is full of emotional and social tensions which prevent it from full functioning. A good person is relaxed and has all of one’s capacity in use.
2. Evil directions cannot be followed all the way, infinitely, so thatone must restrict one’s forces in some way when using them. Consequently evil ones use less of their capacity than the really moral ones.
3. Typically evil ones value artificialities instead of feelings and naturality and that makes them function less well both physically and intellectually. The moral ones typically value naturality and feelings and consequently follow well their own ways of functioning, getting a full capacity via the healthy ways of living.

But: the evil ones break things to which they have no right. So one should use the society agreement for protection against evil.

PUNISHMENTS AND MORAL

In my opinion the world is full of evil people. Trying to punish them creates a so big counterforce that it is imposiible in practise. So trying to punish all evil just makes no sense at all. Instead one should find other methods of guiding the world toward better.

Usually it is evil people who have a negative idea of moral: their moral is impossibly and uncomfortable to follow in practise. So people in their social environment tend to get angry at moral people, as if the moral ones were the ones forcing them and not the evil ones. But the moral people know how to live happily and be easily moral, their moral is pleasant and enrichens life instead of robbing anything - it is like a gift given to them and to others. So they have surely not deserved the attacks of the evil ones. It is the way of evil ones to rely on brute force in guiding people in their environment, regardless of its consequences, so just they are the ones whose demands make people so angry that they feel forced to attack.

UNIVERSAL LOVE

The Japanese have a point of view that I, a European, do not know almost at all but which fascinates me. It is the point of view of universal love, love of the individual toward the world at large and love of the world at large toward an individual. That connects to my own view of the world which is a simple mechanical model.

Feelings affect things. In that sense they are forces in life. Knowing that those forces are products of the evolution or creations of God, one can deduce about them. They have to affect the world toward a better health. That s also what they in my experience have always been doing. So, the repelling feelings repel away factors which are harmful to health, the moving feelings move the world toward a bigger health and the binding feelings bind the world to the biggest health. So the completely healthy world must be a world full of binding feelings: full of love and happiness.

One can unite this idea with another simple idea and get a very beautiful result. The other idea is that healthy biological wholes work while broken wholes do not work at all. If one breaks a biological whole, the level of the whole works no longer. But some of the parts may have been left unbroken. So thoser parts may still work. To all levels of biological functioning applies that healthy wholes work while broken wholes do not function at all. The functioning of a partly broken whole is a sum of the functioning of the healthy parts. Applying this to all levels, from atoms to the biosphere, one gets the result that all biological functioning is build upon healthy pieces of the healthy natural biosphere.

These two thoughts together make us notice that all the functioning of biological beings is build upon things toward we and other healthy animals feel natural healthy love.

The existence of all the artificialities in the world does not change the nature of living beings, so this result about the world being build upon the things which we love stays valid. The change in living conditions by the introduction of technology has been too arubt to allow considerable adabtation by the evolution. God didn t recreate humans when Adam and Eve ate the apple from the tree of good and bad knowledge. So, the world is still build upon the things which we love.

But loving things is a complicated thing. It is based on our perceptions about the reality. If our minds are too confused about all ther artificialities in the world, we cannot conceive right what is the role of each thing in the world and so we do not feel love toward the right objects but are instead sometimes mistaken: love the not-so-good instead of the really good.

But one with a really healthy mind and spirit would observe correctly what to love and what to resist as harmful. And to such an individual, the world would really be based entirely on loved things. I hope with this book to teach you some of that perspective. So that you too can be one for whom the beautiful phraces are not empty words but the reality of your daily life.

THE TRADITIONAL EXTREMELY RATIONAL MORAL OF THE FINNISH SPEAKING MAIN CULTURE OF FINLAND

The traditional moral of Finland in northern Europe is on strong rational grounds which can be put to the form of optimising wholes. These grounds are largely based on two simple advices which all children are given: "It is good to cultivate good health (of the individuals, of the ways of living, of the social relationships, of the society, of the environment and of the world at large)." and "It is stupid to break."

The easy principle "A HEALTHY WHOLE WORKS MUCH BETTER THAN A BROKEN WHOLE" helps you to find answers to seemingly impossible questions, like the value of peace, justice, human values, honesty, democracy, freedom, Gaia, love, beauty, sex etc. from the beneficality or efficiency optimising (military or economical) point of view. These are all charachteristics of the healthy world and thus beneficial.

HOW TO MAKE GOOD WIN OVER EVIL
Build in your mind a good picture of what a healthy whole is like: healthy society, healthy human kind and healthy living king, a healthy world. That is what to term good.
Now, compare the evil option to that picture: what is lacking, you should see as a fracture, brokedness in the whole, also malformations should be seen as brokedness of the whole.
And healthy works better than a broken one. So good is stronger than evil.

Also on the following kind of ground it is possible to find that moral is the most benefical, winning option.
WHICH ONE WINS (MORAL DOES WIN)
What means totally value-free optimizing of benefit without preconditions:
It means interest in
what gives most force, power,
what gives protection and how,
what is the best strategy,
what must one take into account about the future,
how to arrange one 1⁄2s relationships to other powers,
which solutions win and why,
what is the most benefical thing,
what must be most feared and
how to protect oneself,
who are the benefical allies etc.
In this analyzis one needs
Extremely good objective thinking with a good holistic view
And openeyedness toward all options, both the dangerous and also the non-dangerous ones is needed in this because it is the creation of force which is important in this analyzis, so if soft means give any advantage that too must be used FULLY.

HEALTHY VERSUS BROKEN

All functioning is build upon the healthy. Healthy versus broken is the pair of opposites to use in order to understand the world. I will apply this pair of opposites again and again, all through this book. With it you can understand a lot about the functioning of biological beings and societies and about the value of moral.

What about the old pair of opposites then: healthy versus ill? Ilness is a healthy function of a broken biological being, a way of it to try to cure itself. In other words, ilnesses are combinatrions of brokedness and of a curing reaction which seeks to make sure that the living being survives better in the long run by resting, having a fever etc.
In my opinion the word  ilness  isn t as useful in understanding things as the new pair of oppoisites that I use.

So. A healthy individual works better than a broken one. And a healthy society works better than a broken one. But what are the healthy individuals and healthy societies like. What to aim at?

A healthy individual is by one s nature a part of a healthy society. As a part of the healthy society one works best, is the happiest, has a most rewarding life. Healthy functioning at large gives the most rewarding life. That s what the evolution   or God   quarantees about feelings.
But if the society is broken, it is the same as if in individual is broken: the healthy parts try to cure it back to full health. Each healthy individual is a center of recovery for the whole society, even for the whole human kind as a part of the biosphere. Health in this sense means healthy ways of living. Having found the true chord about the art of living, understanding deeply about life, the healthy individual is naturally a center figure in the social environment having a healthy curing kind of effect on all. This is a moral thing to do since it is for the good of all. So a healthy individual is by one s very nature completely moral in a healthy happy natural way!

The health of a society means that it is completely morally arranged. A society is a cooperation attempt and cooperation is something which has turned out to be useful during the evolution   or in God s eyes. Objective thinking says that cooperation is useful because it brings the force of masses. That can be seen as a vector sum: harmonical or contradictory vectors. Those with like interests can ally for the common good.

WHAT I SUPPORT

To the readers of these pages: please do observe conscientously what are the starting points of my thoughts (= all the points of view that I have heard of) which I use ONLY because you others use them, and what are the end results of my thoughts, the thus supported values (= paradise, excellent moral ad a life completely according to feelings) that I support from my heart. Here observe that the starting points are not logical premises for me but premises only for the other parties that I do oppose and to whom I try to prove my point in a discussion. I do support only the end results and not the starting points, even though I value realism but to me these end results ARE realistical values!

What is my projest? I try to offer a holistic view of the world which would be easy and obvious enough for all: centered on easy rough civisions like natural/artificial, now/long time ago, healthy/broken,... And since our perceptions affect our actions, I have tried to choose the focus of attention so that the end result would lead us to a better world, to an as good world as possible: to a natural healthy paradise upon Earth, to the most paradise like paradise of all which could last forever since it is the strongest and safest option in how to arrange things in the world. This I have tried to do in a way which would not demand one to make big changes to one's habitual ways of thinking: in a way that would agree with most of the already used perspectives! In my opinion I have succeeded quite well in this, even though I know that as people are not good in mechanical kind of thinking, in handling mechanical kind of systems objectively, but still insist on using just that way of thinking, the result may seem very complicated - remember that it is a whole picture of the world though! Via following my advice you could develop in mechanical or technical kind of thinking: take a picture of the thing in question, observe its atmosphere and see how the atmosphere correcponds to the main features of the seen landscape of the things to think about. That way you can conceive objectively an enermous amount of details if you just build the picture objectively.

Some of my other pages also contain thoughts about the beneficality of moral: see the links on the page Rational Moral.

Feelings were created by the evolution or by God to be a force which guides us toward the best survival. That s why the best option in questions of survival is a paradise to us. But you have to follow all feelings fully for this to work, in other words you need a holistic view of what you feel about things and of what the world is like, of how things interconnect. The positive feelings set goals and the negative feelings mark things to avoid. You have to follow both kind of feelings but just the positive ones mark the goals and the negative onbes tell of things to avoid. Realism and good social eye together with the tendency to support good instead of evil quarantee that this works. One must believe also in punishments in order to get the feedback systems function properly, even though communication is another way to correct things and social skills still another.

The global paradise (movement) is the healthy world and as such the strongest arrangement producerd by the evolution. Love keeps it up, fixing each part to its healthy, best place in the whole - best for each individual, for each group and for the living kind. That's why the healthy world is a paradise: love binds the parts of the biosphere to their correct places.
This answer stays valid despite the existence of technology since the human nature has stayed unchanged and the development of technology makes it possible to adabt technology to the requirements of humans and so one can optimise both technology and the human part separately, each according to its nature. The nature of technology does not set any requirements to humans, so one can optimise the human workers and human groups in the evolution's way: via health!

If this paradise wins idea sounds too outrageous to you, you might try phracing it in a much much milder and surely objective way, like is customary here in Finland, and then just mention that this truth is so objective that in fact one can in theory go very far into this direction without it ceasing to be beneficial direction to go to. "It is always good to cultivate good health in everything!" and "It is stupid to break!", says the Finnish culture...

(I want to remark that there should not be any fault in the objectivity of this thought and of the different grounds for it that I list later on this page!)

I do not know where the possible weak points of my thoughts are. Everything should be surely objective. You should tell me where the possibilities for improvement are. I have tried to reach the most beautiful things that I know of, make them real and world wide, starting from an as cynical point of view as I can imagine i.e. from the completely value-free competition for power and benefit, and from all the nicer points of view that I know of. If things are even worse, i.e. evil ruling without other goals than just destruction, we can use the value-free competition to put the more moral ones, our own side into power, to let the global paradise wins. I have succeeded in this. I can even prove it for computers governing instead of lving beings and for the case that no material world exists and we are just spirits or some kind of intelligent constructions run inside a huge computer brain (The beneficality of the optimised solution to the whole does not demand that you would have been planned and especially fitted to that kind of whole by the evolution or by intelligent planning.). I do not know what more I could do, the rest is up to you.

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

SELFISHNESS

Technology is typically build to a certain purpose only, with a complete disregard for its relationship with the rest of the world. That is contrary to the nature where the health of the whole (incl. pack & liv. environment) helps the survival of its parts. And since animals can understand the value of their own health, can they via compassion and an analogy of the whole to their own life UNDERSTAND also THE VALUE OF THE HEALTH OF THE WHOLE, WHICH understanding HELPS THEIR OWN SURVIVAL. -> GAIA!

What is already ready made, complex but well fitted to form a well working whole, well suited to its purpose,like the nature is, is in character very different from things in their building phace where product development is still lacking, like is with tools and technology.
We have natural ways of looking at the nature, understanding it in its complexity and intentionality: emphaty and feelings at large. The ways of looking at the much less complex technology and the build world are different.

PROTECTION

To live happily and to wish well for others sounds nice but how to protect oneself? The need for protection isn t in contradiction with the wishing well to others. I didn t say that you should sacrifice yourself for others, I said that you could live happily! And if you are moral yourself you deserve to be protected because you thus work for the common good. You can yourself be one of those who protect you. You must protect yourself from those who might harm you, that means from the evil actions of others and of yourself i.e. you must demand moral from yourslerf and from others. If you yourself err from good moral, from the wish for good life for all fairly, you are thus not allying with the health of the world and so you are harming yourself compared to how things would be if you allied with the health of the world. Better than unjustice is to build on things of real worth. That s why you can sometimes benefit from punishments which guide you toward more moral action. It is better to see the power dynamics of the world: of how people like to be treated, what they answer with good, and how they do not like to be treated, what they answer by attacking. Wish well and protect yourself   that s morally fully OK, even demanded by moral since as a moral person you are a person of worth  Protection of good is an important part of moral, and what would be good if not happy life with no suffering and a good future ahead? This is exactly so when watched from the holistic point of view!
If you have difficulties with just this point, please read my page www.paradisewins.net/societyagreement.html . Friends can coperate and benefit from that, enemies cannot and must defend themselves against each other, not trusting the untrustworthy. But one can be fair and moral in this. One should divide all rights on the condition that they are not abused in any way. So all rights are conditional. This leads to very unequal division of rights since the individuals are very different indeed, but that is only fair and not against the equality of individuals since all are entitled to the same rights IF they only satisfy the same comditions demanded by true justice and responsibility.

THE HEALTH OF A SYSTEM, OF THE MODERN SOCIETY

There are some basic truths about the functioning of complex wholes. This include the importance of putting each part to its correct place in the system. This is connected to the value of objective thinking, honesty and justice and to the success of market economy: in each of them one gives things feedback according to what the things are like and that enables one to put each thing to its correct, best place in the system.

Having each part at its correct place in the whole means that the system isn't broken. This is connected to the value of unifiedness, fracturelessness in well "planned" systems.
The value of fracturelessness is in turn connected to the value of harmony:
Imagine a system broken into pieces, starting to repair the system you put some parts to their correct places: you get small unified, harmonical islands, the better repaired the system becomes, the more harmonical its functioning, the more unified the whole. A well planned system functions without contradictions and fractures, harmonically. The next step from harmonival is unified well functioning. Such are the systems of nature.

The value of harmony as a vector sum

Several harmonious forces sum up to much a bigger force than a group of contradictory, unharmonical forces or a separate one of the forces in question.

< > v ^ contradictory
versus
> > > > noncontradictory, harmonical

Harmonical solution creates more benefit and loses none to opposition
- unlike the contradictory solution attempt.

Thus, cooperation gives strength while strength is lost in conflicts.
So one who values cooperation is stronger than a like one who values conflicts.
And so "soft" harmonical means prove to be valuable. Like this one can see how peace is more beneficial than war and count the difference. One must just add the huge effect of the enormous destruction caused by the enemy. Also there is a loss in war to the safety of the future, like the society agreement with other countries tells.

Applying this result thoroughly gives the efficiency-optimised result:
the most harmonical arrangement:
the natural and healthy (in harmony with the natural ways of functioning of the living beings)
loose (according to the way that things are)
global (all parties in harmony and cooperation)
cooperation.

Ally as much as you can. That brings you success in life. Ally with the society in order to produce good living conditions, ally with the moral ones for the same common cause and with friends to defend the things, which you value. Ally with the living kind to achieve the paradise, Gaia.

Compare the value of harmony to the value of unifiedness and fracturelessness.

HARMONIC FOREST ISLANDS
Harmonic forest islands is the best way that I can think of to think of people living peacefully together. Each person alone is an island with harmonic forest growing on it. Each cooperating group is a harmonic forest island. One can think through the whole society agreement this way: the structure of the whole world in a way, which is constructive for happy life and good moral. This natural division of the world also teaches one healthy independence at the same time as harmonical cooperation.

This way of cooperating can be described also by marking each thing done a vector and by grouping the vectors according to their direction, so that one gets an optimised use of forces.

THE SOCIETY AGREEMENT

The island principle
A way to arrange cooperation:
either cooperation or independence. (Use separate islands for different conflicting parties.)

People who CULTIVATE the same thing belong to the same ISLAND.
Share results of cultivation on the island according to justice, which takes into, account the basic living requirements of each. ("Live and let others live." is a good rule to follow.)
Check who belongs to your own island: those who do not follow some set of rules, do not deserve the benefits created by them.
One can create islands for the exchange of benefits.

Like this one can count what are one's responsibilities and rights toward the society: which islands one is on, what are the rules needed for cultivating those things: that's what benefits one has gained and that's what one must follow. This is called the society agreement.

By taking into account also other kinds of islands, i.e. all things that one causes (cultivates), one can see how we together make the world what it is.

One of the most important islands is that  in emergencies one is fairly helped by those who are capable of helping . It includes an obligation to help but one gains the protection in emergencies which is dearly needed.

Forming groups by being in a same situation or by caring for the same thing:
* all mothers
* all those who care for children (including children them selves)
* all those who support good moral, obliged when they find themselves in a situation like this, needing moral guarding behaviour working for the good of all
* all who care for the future of us all
* all living beings
The society agreement says: all those of the group agree to work for the common cause according to real justice which takes into account human values, carrying responsibility of the whole, with the help of common sense with a holistic view.
The freely organized citizen democracy in Finland in Europe is of this type.
Compassion helps us to see the similarities between our lives and so to form this kind of cooperating groups.

As a helping aid in forming this kind of groups, an objective holistic picture of the world formed by objective thinking, which doesn't take sides, and which recognizes things as phenomena with feelings connected to them, feelings that tell about the importance of such things in life and in the world generally and about what to do with such things: which things to support and which to prevent for the good of all: children, free time, catastrophes,...

Feelings of this kind are typical to the Finnish speaking Finns:
what is the role of each thing in life and in the society,
how do things form our fate - is it good to have such things in life or not?

It is typical for us Finns to use a holistic view of the world at large all the time.

Remember this also at the times of war: do not break against justice even then. There is a society agreement with the enemy too, preventing the wars from getting longer and more cruel. Check how much is lost when you do not follow some rules. That much you have to lose yourself, even if you are a man and soldier and think that what you are doing is for the common good. Those who keep the society agreement, are still entitled to their share of good, even if they are female and civilian. Read my text about healthy aggressivity. More than that isn't allowed. Being for the good health of the world and of the societies is moral, so it is supporting some islands of the society agreement, not destroying them. The army of Finland is strictly for defence only plus for some peace keeping operations of the United Nations.
The society agreement like picture of the world allows one to make cost benefit analyses also at the times of war. The costs of a war are huge, peace is a much much more beneficial option.

NATURAL PATCHES AND SOCIETY AGREEMENT

NATURAL PATCHES
* individual
* social group
* group working together
for some goal
following some set of rules
(not hurting each other,
co-operating for the goal,
nice behaviour
and so on):
1. Things that one needs to run one's life:
* home
* food
* means to get such for oneself (work and the possibility to work)
* safety
2. Things that one likes:
* hobbies
* delicious food
* and so on
And arranging these together:
* hobby group
* ordering food from shop
* And the possibility for such

Large groups
agreeing not to hurt
each other badly
or at all
(no need to, if the places are separate
or far away from each other)

Justice
&
A Harmonic Forest Islands type of society agreement
(like the one above)

Rights and priviledges are conditional:
shared only according to justice!

DEFENCE AGAINST DECEPTION IN ALLEGIANCIES

Think of the world as a huge society agreement: who is really on your own island in each question, you can trust. Who is not but appears to be, who is disguised as one of your own, you cannot trust. So you need an island against the dangers created by those pretenders, especially if they are enemies. One way to guard against such attacks is to use separate islands in deciding about things: you decide on your island on objective grounds which support common good and then check if it agrees with the decisions of others and communicate about the decisions so that you and the others can learn from each other. This is the reason why we are individuals and not solely social beings: so we can make defences against betrayals. If your decisions agree, you are parts of the same group in that question. If not, then you are somewhat on different islands - either as a result of differences in understanding and experience - like usual: that's why the communication and social instincts are needed. Or because the others try to deceive you to an action which is harmful to you or to your group or serves some other goal which you do not agree about - that's why you need to trust your own understanding too.

HANDLING UNSURENESS ABOUT TRUSTWORTHINESS

If you are in a situation where you do not know how things truly are, for example whether you can trust some person or not, you should act in a way that is O.K. from the point of view of the both possibilities. Take yourself care of the important things in your life, so that they get well even if the other person is not trustworthy. On the other hand, give yourself and the other person a possibility to living in harmony, in a constructive way: do not break anything that you do not need to - especially not those things that the other person needs if she/he truly is trustworthy. Try to do things according to justice, and work for common good, without harming good persons and without letting the evil ones to benefit in any way more than they deserve when they are judged according to their moral. Like making an ordinary deal with safety precautions. These safety precautions mean in practise moral guidelines and making the morality of action in practise the condition for any rights. (Rights can be refused also afterwards and deals devalidiated if the other one breaks against the moral guidelines.)

HOW TO AVOID CONFLICTS
One simple advice on how to avoid conflicts, is to get more independence when one feels the need to aggressively influence things, so that one can peacefully influence them instead. Read my texts about the healthy aggressivity.

INDEPENDENCY AND COOPERATION WITH UNIFICATION
How to fit together the needs of independency (defence, justice) and the benefits of unification and cooperation? One needs different degrees of freedom and safety precautions in addition to unification. One can have separate islands for each party, or them in harmony and cooperation, or such with a promise to stay so, or such for a long time or one single area. Safety precautions make it possible to sift to a more independent arrangement if one gets abused. The ideal is to be free and cooperate at the same time, such is the healthiest kind of system, I think. In other words the arrangements should be so ideal that a new participant would on one's own choose the same ones as are already in use. This is the way that the culture and the society of the Finnish speaking Finland work. That is: if they try to choose the best ones and not sabotage the systems. Separate islands and independence are needed just as a defence against sabotage and other attacks. Those who cooperate survive better.

Between island there can be exchanges: what one has a lot it will give to others and get something that they have a lot in return. If someone has lots of strength, it can help the weak ones, who in turn make the promise to help in return.

DEFENCE: SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Always make carefully sure that the most important things get right! Make several checkings instead of just one: use all the weight of the importance of the thing in question.

If you go to the right direction, you might get something done. If you go to a wrong direction, you surely do not get anything done. So it is worth trying.

I never take an evil person as a model for myself.
Instead I trust my own sense of health and happiness.

NOT TAKING SIDES
Not taking sides is a prequisite for justice and for true objectivity.

HONESTY

X% honesty in a system gives (X%)^n effectiveness to the system where n is the dimension of the system and X% the amount of hitting the truth, what ever the reason for it. So systems are build on honesty.

Speak the truth when you say something. The deeper you touch the truth, the better you will be listened to. Your soul is like that of others.

Honest looks
If the looks of people are not correct, honest and sincere, people get wrong roles in the society and the functioning of the communities suffers a lot. One should not allow the disguising of evil as good. That is against honesty and justice, against the functioning of a system and against correctability. The Swedish speaking Finns do not understand this, the Finnish speaking Finns do understandf it.

NO social roles
Social roles are partly lies: they try to build on a ground that does not exist or deceive others into supporting unjustices. These are both serious faults, which should be avoided.

Lies and unjustice decrease the effectiveness of arrangements.
There is a Finnish saying: "What the big before, the little ones after." If the leaders of a country steal by lying or doing unjustice - either from other countries or fron their own subordinates - others typically copy the amount of lies in order to trust in the most intelligent ones' understanding. So if the leaders gain X% extra by lying or doing unjustice, all the others try to do the same. That means at least X% of everything lost to lies, so the effectiveness of the system decreases X% per every dimension of the system. So the leaders gain (100+X)% * ((100-X)%)^n = ((100%)^2 - (X%)^2 )((100-X)%)^(n-1)< (100%)^2 - (X%)^2 < 1. So since the dimension of the system, n, is at least one, the leaders lose instead of gaining! For example the dimension of the system n=2 if there is stealing plus laziness because of lack of motivation because of the stealing. That would cause a loss of 2X% in addition to the gain of X% by stealing, so the total effect is a loss of X% to both the leaders and to the citizens. In other words, lying or unjustice as a practise in a country decreases its standard of living noticeably, so much that honesty and justice would be a more benefical option.
A proud nation is a self sustaining nation! Also if it is a big nation capable of mistreating others - It will not mistreat others even if it were strong enough for that.
Remember that if you are in an important place in the market economy so that you could gain a lot by stealing a little or even more, you are one of the leaders of a country and so the above calculations apply to you too. (You are an opinion leader, an example to others, especially in your own branch where your money comes from.) So you will lose by stealing and doing unjustice, not gain.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

A CULTURE BEAUTIFUL LIKE A RELIGION:
THE TRADITIONAL FINNISH SPEAKING MAIN CULTURE OF FINLAND

Compassion for all living beings, a life long all-encompassing devotion to their good, a devotion that rises straight from one's own heart and is put to practise with all of one's own understanding and all knowledge and wisdom that one has managed to gain. Everything seen from this perspective, all the time: first a feling: what life is like, what to support and what to avoid; then devotion born from those feelings and one's whole life accordingly   as far as one can oneself influence things, in a culture of complete freedom of individuals   with only the MASSES OF foreign influence from other cultures disturbing 

= THE FINNISH SPEAKING MAIN CULTURE OF FINLAND

A paradise movement

I love Life, happiness and things positive for happy life
- like most of the others, like You too.

So I support from my heart
the arrangements in the world which support good life,
moral in this sense of the word.

This is all that is needed for a better world.

(Speaking out this view is also a good way to win new friends.
It works well also wordlessly, on gesture language.)

And please believe me when I say that this perspective is in fact just one version of the traditional Finnish speaking culture of Finland, even though propably most Finns would not recognize it since I have chosen the terms and the perspectives differently from the usual. In my opinion and in the opinion of many other Finns too Finland has many really excellent solutions to offer to the world and so should have the role of leading the world toward good that Sweden nowadays has. Swedish culture is much less convinced about its own "finery" and is needlessly malicious under the surface. Compared to that Finland has lots of sincerely more worthy things to offer - without selling any drawbacks as a part of the deal like Sweden does. (The Swedish demand you to trust the Swedish culture instead of your own understanding, Finland respects the understanding of each and offers just thoughts for support, so you can "buy" just a part of the whole bunch of ideas.) It is just that our traditional ways of expression are too modest and self-critical to the extreme in our culture's endless search for true objectivity and great trustworthiness in offering the best alternatives. We always trust that you will see the value of our ways yourself (that's how we treat everyone) because that's the way that you can be surest about them and that's the most fair way to treat you - but of course you won't see if you cannot even get to know our culture. Good life for all fairly is our goal - realistically in the modern world. That all in the world would be happy and free, deciding themselves about their own lives is the common dream of us Finnish speaking Finns. The following of the behavioral rule "Live and let others live." that we all respect and which we also demand others to respect quarantees that there is no room for evil deeds in this - please think this through with examples: otherwise it may be difficult to see.
There is a big difference between the Finnsih speraking Finnish way in which everyone lives in a way whcih arises stright from one's heart and the culture is just a common expression of this, spread by communication and sharing of thoughts, and the Swedish ways where a predetermined outer form determines the allowed behaviour of each, often supressing what people really are and causes so maliciousness and so more supressing of valuable things. The Finnish ways really work: if each one is demanded to follow them there is no fear of evil running free. And the way to get the people to follow them, is to just tell to them of the possibility of following them and of the benefits and other good sides of them and to let them choose freely. It is a pity that there is not more of this communication between cultures so that the Finnish culture would spread. Often the looks of Finns are too rational - that amount of rationality is explained by the excellent motivational ground of Finns and by our unusually good ability in holistic thinking which in my opinion can connect to our language and to our valuing of nature. Would it help if people knew that sexuality here us free: each one is allowed to choose just the partner that they want to. As people behave responsible, there are no drawbacks in this. And since there is no role play, there are much much fewer forced kind of sexual encounters than in most other cultures, including the Swedish speaking cultures of Finland and Sweden. So the atmosphere of sexuality is really nice - for all! We here think that the Finnish culture could solve the world's huge problems - just like that if it just would spread like the culture of USA owadays does or even maybe like the culture of Sweden does. And how much easier it would be: just leave people the chance to do things in Finnish ways and tell them in a way understandab le to common sense and feelings why those ways are for their own good and follow their own ideals.
Finland is a very peaceful country where it is difficult to get people to understand that if our country were conquered by others, they would not necessarily immediately adobt our ways - because the distances are too wide, because the ways of adpobting new things are different, because the people in those other countries are not necessarily as free (completely free), because our culture hasn't even this far spread to all over the world like it in our opinion should since it would be good for all and allow the keeping of all the old good sides of all those other cultures. Our Finnish speaking Finnish culture is a free cooperation of all the citizens for better life for all equally in the best ways that we have come to think of. It is a system correctable from all places. The only drawback that we have is that we are not perfect as humans: the systems can reach only our common level but we always keep the ideals as a direction to go to and in our opinion that is the vest way to do things - that too is under discussion if anyone wants to challenge it, like everytyhing is, by not likely to change as long as we all agree about it staright from our heart. The work motivation in fInland is very high: so much we agree with the ways of our society and so the standard of living in Finalnd is unusually high. The amount of corruption in Finalnd is the lowest in the world and the crime rates low. One of the first thoughts in this internet page, the paradise movement idea, is our common tune. Our views are typically all human but of course to some extend coloured by our own culture.

We Finns think that it would be for the good of all if the Finnish speaking Finnish culture had a dominating role in the world. The problem maybe is not Sweden but the fear of honesty of many people from the other cultures. The Finnish culture does respect honesty very much but still most Finns lie outrageously, much like is the reputation of Arabs - while Arabs maybe lie even more. So I guess that the honesty demanded by the Finnish culture would not be too much for anyone. It just helps to arrange things to everybody's benefit. I myself am honest, really.

According to these calculations it would pay well to invest a lot in supporting the traditional Finnish speaking Finnish culture with its moral.

It may be that the too tense and cruel atmosphere of market economies has to do with the too tense and cruel cultures of the countries (Sweden and Japan have rigid social codes which give too little room for the individuals) which serve as model economies. It would be better to choose the traditional Finnish speaking main culture of Finalnd with its values to be a model culture in how to live with a market economy. The coises of the Finnish speaking main culture of Finland are on rational grounds that fit together with the market economy - unlike the tradition based rigid forms of the cultures of Sweden and Japan. If one looks at the soul of the Finnish speaking culture of Finland, it is very positive to happy life and extremely moral: one that cpould solve the world's greatest problems at the same time as offering economical prosperity, stability and true enjoyable freedom of individuals and groups ina very peaceful way. This is the dream of the Finnsih speaking Finnish culture because in its excellent caring moral it wishes the best for all the world: all the good things that we here understand and enjoy, while needing to give up none of your own good sides - replacing them with even better would be good though...
One example of the Finnish way to conceive things is that one places weight on what one can get with money and not on money itself. That makes sense objectivily looking and makes people much more motivated while increasing their understanding of what matters in the world.

The Finnish speaking main culture of Finland values personal estimates of things, so the whole culture and society structure have been approved by some five million unusually able objectively thinking individuals on their own.
Sometimes it is difficult for the outsiders to observe the Finnish ways and values, since those are based on the personal estimates of each and people from other cultures often have the idea that their own understanding should be supressed by some rigid rule of conventional ways and the understanding of those in power. Besides, the looks of Finns may lie because the Swedish speaking Finns are mixed with the main culture and have a different, to foreigners more familiar social position centered and outer looks oriented way of doing things than the actual Finns. (The Swedish speaking ones get their cultural features from Sweden.) The Finnish speaking Finns like to build all things on true ground - that's what one is motivated to if one is free to follow one's own choises in life, and that ought to be, theoretically estimatedly, the economically best alternative too.
Finland shouls not grant Sweden the right to claim that it is like Finland in what comes to its culture or to be anything else than what it really is like. Otherwise things go ashtray. Each country should be treated according to what its culture is like. In regard of Sweden one should mention also the bad, evil sides of the Swedish culture and its attitude toward other nations and cultures which differs greatly from the very moral globally responsible and even loving Finnish culture. If one is not honest about these things, one is misleading people very badly - so very many are mislead to follow Sweden - and damaging, maybe even badly, both one's own country and the other countries of the world as well.
Sweden has long been rich. Finland has started from a poor beginning and ended up being one of the countries with a highest standard of living in the world. So what kind charachteristics in a culture create economical wealth? Sweden being rich, it has been typical to respect Sweden for that without querstioning its cultura  charachteristics, without counting the benefits and losses they create compared to for example the Finnish speaking culture of Finalnd. For example the typically Swedish sin of maliciousness prevents full cooperation which is a way to gain wealth. And where malicousness prevents full justice, things do not get treated according to what they are like and so one does not become as rich as one otherwise could become. This contrasts to the Finnish rule "Honour those who truly deserve respect." And the freedom and the good will born from the Finnish rule "Live and let others live!" are a good ground for cooperation. In my opinion one should examine cultural charachte5rstics objectiverly and copy only those which it is good to copy and not harmful. economically or otherwise. The Finnish culture is on strong rational grounds while the Swedish culture is more arvitrary.

A CONTRASTING FAULTY VIEW ON EVOLUTION
Many people think that if one by any menas manages to win, for example to kill the other one, that is somehow good in the eyes of the evolution. This view would lead to evil ruling if it were correct, but it isn't: Compare two different areas where in one the competition is like above, by any means, and another one where the competition is of the kind that lets the best one win in each thing. Now in the first area the population would develop toward mean and cunning, while its general health and performance in any other tasks would suffer. On the other area the population would stay completely healthy and develop in strenght. If these two areas were in competition later on, the healthy ones would be stronger and win. So it is only healthy competition which is right in evolutions eyes. Short-sighetd solutions do not let your genes survive.
And if the group were very large like the whole world's population, and the evil ones in power in that, they still would degenerate and some unobserved healthy group inside the population would win in the end. So if you think that you are in competition with others, too harsh competition isn't good for your future survival, neither is competition by any means available ok for your future fate. Competition that ensures your own health asnd the health of your own group is the best for you. That means also supporting healthy competition in the scale of the whole world, since if you are under the power of others, their ways influence your own life and survival: their ways should be kept as beneficial to your own health as possible - that isn't the smae as being better than your neighbour, that isn't enough if there is some faraway danger that you ahve to fight too: you have to reach your full potential, to benefit from every chance of improvement that is available. Only then have you made your survival as sure as possible for you.
The society agreement is the way that ordinary people ally for their present and future wellfare. That's why good moral is important - see my calculations earlier on this page.

ANOTHER WAY OF SAYING THIS
The evolution found the strongest and safest, the best arrangement in every way in the tough competition. Term that "the completely healthy world". Suppose that feelings were created after that or at the same time or adabted to the thus found best choise: the task of feelings is to guide us toward that best choise, toward the health of the world. So what feelings guide us toward, needs to be the best choise in the tough world, the choise that will win in practise - not only because our feelings wish so but because of its "every" feature! On the other hand, what will win in the tough world, is the healthy world and that is a global paradise in our eyes!

Please, if you find these thoughts interesting, advertise my pages and my two self-published books or the ideas in them, so that others too will get to know them.

Please note that you should not doubt things which are too complicated for your own understanding. Follow the truths that you can understand and don't waste time destroying already existing answers which bring the world toward good. But if you can think things through by yourself, please check these thoughts yourself too!

A SIDE STEP: OPTIMISING THE TECHNOLOGY
So an optimised system consisting of both natural and artificial parts is optimised as healthy. This is a generalisation of the term "health" to such systems: fully functioning and optimised in many ways goes my definition of health of such systems. For such a system to be optimised, the parts of it have to be adabvted to each other and optimised, healthy and fully functioning, themselves. So how to optimise the artificial parts? For that you need engineering type of thinking: objective thinking with sizes and connections of things right. That is an ongoing process: the development of technology. What it requires of humans is good thinking ability and that in turn is based on healthy natural ways of living. So the development of technology and the changing of ways of living to more paradise like is possible simultaneously! The change in the ways of living supports the development of technology.

THE RATIONALITY OF FEELINGS
Feelings help us to answer needs, and answering needs keeps us healthy.
If something is fully according to emotions, it is well suited for life. But if there is something lacking, it causes negative emotions, so that we would know to fix taht shortcoming away.
If you do not see your emotions this way rational, you are propably making some thought errors, for example that of not using a holistic view of the world and remembering that the health of the society and the health of the world at large are good for yourself too. Or then you lie to yourself because of social position, imagination or a lack of trust in feelings, etc. Or then you think in words, which offer a very narrow fragmented view of the world instead of the single holistic view that is the most efficient way to think and natural to humans.

THINKING OBJE4CTIVELY BY STARTING FROM FEELINGS
So if you have a holistic view of the world, you can start from any feeling and see what phenomenom in the world it concerns and what are the structural parts of the world whose health it tries to safeguard.

SUMMARY
Divide the world to two components: how humans and other living beings will be treated, and what are the NEEDS of using the existing technology. Technology develops as time passes, so there is no fixed answer to what the combination of these two components will be. So there will be TWO DIRECTIONS to aim at: the global paradise of a healthy natural world, and the demands of the efficient use of technology. In what comes to the working ability of humans, these two directions are the same. But in what comes to the need for roads, factories, computer networks etc., these two differ. Some tens of years ago computers were of the size of houses, now portable versions are common. So maybe the demands of technology get somewhat smaller as the time passes: technology is adabtable, humans are not. Still, the end result propably isn't as ideal for humans as the world wide paradise without any technology. It will be something in between: propably the buildings and technology get adabted to the natural needs of humans, since as the time passes, many more options are possible than at the beginning of the era of technology.

I do not think of this paradise as a fixed kind of end result. Instead I think of it as a direction to develop into, starting from our present day situation. Both the adabtation of machines via their development to the requirements of humans and the development of technology to smaller and more efficient lead to smaller requirements for the use of technology. But how small will they become as the time passes, that I do not know!
But at first I think that the ways of living can be changed toward more healthy and natural just by changing our view on what is a good way to arrange things because that too determines a lot.

No question is so big as to not to be worth thinking over by yourself. On the contrary: just the biggest questions should be thought over by all, all by themselves so as to find lots of new answers.

Communicating this perspective to others is easy via gesture language:
I love life, happiness and things positive for happy life - like most of the others, like You too.
That means that I support from my heart the arrangements in the society which support good life, moral in this sense that is.
This is all that is needed for a better world.

All That Matters
I am interested in good life for myself. And good life for all fairly is just about all in the world that matters: my own life and the lives of all the others - that they would go well, that's what matters.
Why to get interested in anything else - in anything else than MORAL that is, since that's what moral means: moral is the way to arrange good life for all fairly - and to earn fairly a good life for oneself too.
(And fair play is, except moral and so needed in building a paradise and in earning a good life in any case, just a form of rationality: treating each person, deed etc according to what it is like - it just makes sense to do so, and so makes one's social life more peaceful and harmonious, makes you more righteously valued among others because their heart's voice too says that you behave right.)

Moral
Moral means cultivating good and happiness is what is meant by good. Resisting evil is equal to preventing unhappiness. This is so from a holistic point of view which - I believe - is natural for humans, like the quest for happiness is.

Conscience
CONSCIENCE AND INSTICT NATURE SHARE THE SAME MESSAGE

My conscience is the central part of me that I live by. It commands me to pay attention to the whole, to get the whole world to a good shape: that's what also my instincts and understanding both guide me toward. It also guides me to pay attention to the feelings of others and to what is important in life: happiness of me and others are connected, since we are all social animals, we can be healthy only with a healthy kind of pack, my feelings of compassion and the graving for happiness both advice the same way.

My instinct nature, I feel that to be the same as my conscience's message: starting from either one I end at the same end result, multiple ways being safety precautions against malfunctions and errors in finding what life is about. What makes the message the same is the emphasis on happiness and a holistic view of the whole world in my thinking and a sense of the interconnectedness of a human group. I think that with these corrections to the usual kind of moral one could raise up children to be very moral adults in a very happy, natural and rational way.

TO BE FOR THE HUMAN KIND MEANS TO BE FOR THE LIVING KIND
Our fate, the fate of the human kind, is connected extremely strongly to the fate of the living kind. There is no future for us if there is no future for the rest of the living kind. When we want to save ourselves, we have to save all the living kind! It is the time for action.

All that people do is for moral
ALL THAT YOU DO IS FOR MORAL

Since everything is based on the healthy and we are pack animals by nature, parts of the Gaia paradise (= the healthy biosphere, in my texts) even, you can think that everything that you do in good health is in essence moral or for moral. It is lack of skill and understanding plus the thought errors, which cause that the end result isn't always moral at all.

This is a new point of view: you will need to practise it, it is a skill, before you learn it, I guess. But it may be so with the other thoughts of this book too...

How to find out how your deeds are moral: find the place of those things in the Gaia paradise, in the completely healthy world, which is completely natural too. Like: the army is for defence against evil. In this you need to divide human action to its basic components like in the text Fulfilling dreams.

Kahlil Gibran (a famous writer from Lebanon): “When you work, you fulfil the part of the most far away dream of the Earth which was ordered to you already when the dream was born.”
Gaia for Gaia

Just find the healthy form of all of your deeds, and of the deeds of others, from the point of view of the whole world (This is a skill.): the way that you repair the world toward full health and help to keep it flourishing where it already is healthy. Like for example, searching for happiness is a way to search for healthy happy ways of living as a part of the wholes that you belong to, the biggest of them the healthy world. The rule "Live and let others live!" makes typically others happy too. If you find the right chord in living, you can serve as an example to others too and so help to cure the world.

All mentally healthy people are moral, says the Finnish speaking culture of Finland. This moral is described in the following way: Completely healthy people have a healthy understanding, so that they treat big matters as big and everything according to what it is like. So they choose the best course of action in the large scale matters and carry responsibility about them. They also carry responsibility about their own life and about the big matters in the lives of others. The feelings of compassion toward all living beings, which the Finnish speaking culture of Finland says that all healthy humans have, are another reason for carryung responsibility about the fate of the world at large with its masses of people and other living beings and for carrying responsibility about the lives of others. A healthy person also has a healthy emotional life and so cares well for oneself too and is quite indipendent in one's understanding and ways.
A perdson who does not qualify by this standard,is classified not fully mentally healthy and rational. A person who is dangerous compared to the healthy ones is classified dangerously irrational, selfish, short-sighted, and also insane if absurbly irrationally irresponsible about big matters about which one is responsible. (So the Finnish concept of mental illness doesn't refer to a disease but to a dangerous irresponsibility.)

A BROAD WAY TO HEAVEN: THE HUMAN NATURE

There is a broad way to heaven:
what is natural for a human being to do,
according to feelings and thinking.

There is a narrow road to hell:
artificiality and unnaturality.
(So mistaken are those who count on artificialities.)

THE DEVELOPMENT OF GAIA
In competition those who cooperate do better than the same kind of ones who don't.
So during the evolution those who didn't ally as much as possible were much more likely to drop away than those who allied. That resulted in an evolution toward complex interconnected wholes in the large scales:
individuals consisting of many cells, packs, ecosystems and maybe larger wholes and even Gaia.

THE WORLD IS ONE BIG ALLEGIANCE

If just conceived right, the world is one big allegiance for a better life at a better living environment. (Read the texts The development of Gaia and Wholeheartedly.) One just needs to conceive right the place of each thing in the world and the right ways to cooperate: good moral and naturality and health. At places this allegiance works all right, at places it is mistaken because of all the artificialities of the world. It is always the thinking part which is mistaken, everything else works all right but can be mistaken because the thinking part is mistaken. Animals too think: they have pictures of the world and make observations about how things are.
To understand the role of predators, make clear that the allegiance is for a better life, not for the avoidance of death except in ways which quarantee a better life for the society.
A thought in moral is often a building plan. Beauty tells that a world according to that plan would be a good place to live in and a strong choise for the power oriented too.

Defending Gaia
THE HEALTHY BIOSPHERE ISN'T PACIFIST

There is some discriminating needed. One needs to raise the good over the evil.
Thinking about that: Gaia cannot be totally pacifist, otherwise it would deteriorate into a hell as time passes.
Gaia must be for peace though: for the biggest amount of peace over time. That means some conflicts sometimes in order to overcome dangers to living conditions in the long term. Gaia needs an ability to defend itself. This is the same as with the advice "Live and let others live!" meaning curing kind of aggression, or with the freedom of individuals ending up being the freedom of moral individuals only.

DEFENDING GAIA

Gaia needs to defend itself well.
This includes the use of technology to defence.

Because we live in the world with large systems, the winning solution is Gaia ruling large systems in questions concerning living beings and not just Gaia alone.

Gaia fullfills all natural needs and gives the best functioning: best intelligence and best working capacity, being the winner in a strongest one wins competition, and fullfills so also most other kinds of dreams and wishes.

Gaia wins especially against evil and torture oriented ones. If one just concentrates on defence well enough, because Gaia keeps living beings healthy, fully functioning and well motivated.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

THE MYSTICAL GAIA
Gaia, the Mother Earth, a global symbiosis, all living beings being one, a world filled with love, is the most beautiful world that one can imagine. It is so beautiful that it is hard to believe in its existence. Still, it is in our nature. Gaia is our true nature. That is inevitable because of the evolution just had to shape us so, like I seek to show in the following.

But to begin with, the Gaia ideal sounds like a fairy tale to us. How to make any fairy tale rational? Divide in into the things which in it touch our feelings. Typically all these phenomena touch our feelings because they are important as real phenomenoms in he world that we live in. Like if you divide so the Gaia dream, you get the following list: the healthy biosphere, carrying responsibility, love, friendship, peace, happiness, unfractured nature, etc. All these beautiful things are directions to aim at in our lives, in the reality. The healthy biosphere is what we will concentrate in the following.

What is healthy? It is the fittest arrangement produced by the evolution and things near it. This health had to stay from generation to generation in order to the species to survive. So the forces produced by the evolution, the forces in our nature, in other words feelings and instincts, (Understanding gives us just a mao of the world, not directions to go to.) just had to guide us toward better survival, toward the full health. That means the health of the individual, the health of its society and even the health of its living environment. Since only with all those in a good shape are the possibilities of future survival best. So the feelings had to guide us toward the full health of the world, of the whole living environment: of the biosphere.
And when healthy, feelings had to keep us healthy, tie us to the full health of the world and its practises. So the healthy world had to be full of tying feelings: full of love and happiness.
And there had to be no repelling feelings in the state of full health: no suffering, pain, fear or hate ï¿½ except toward the non-healthy things that were present either as possibilities or as realities. Otherwise the world would not have stayed healthy. Other strategies would have won in the competition: those who counted on the health of everything, those whose feelings guided them toward the best survival ability and so toward the safest possible future.
In other words, the healthy biosphere is by definition the best possible arrangement in regard for future survival. And at the same time it is a global paradise, a world of eternal bliss for its inhabitants, something higher than we can even dream of. And so our all feelings guide toward it.
Just sometimes, our thinking is partly mistaken and thatï¿½s why we do not live in the paradise, in a fully healthy Gaia. Any more, a long time ago we did. And since Gaia is the best alternative in the modern competition too, we one day will live in a fully healthy Gaia againï¿½
Gaia is full of strategies of life, some of which are good and others of which have to be dropped away by the force of predators, illsesses and avoided via suffering. These evil sounding things in fact do a beautiful work as the gardeners of the Gaia paradise, ensuring a good future for us all even if the living conditions do change. That is what saves us all. This does not mean that we should sacrifice anyone against justice: we can protect the weak who by being good caring pack animals have deserved the right to be protected. Only those who fail this test of belonging to a pack, i.e. the very evil ones, are left without the protection of the society and soon die away in Gaia, to a relief of those who are left behind. Harsh, yet realistic:
What would be a better paradise to live in than the most beautiful possible world which is also the winner in the strongest one wins competition?! The most paradise like paradise of all paradises, the one and only correct answer to our natureï¿½s callï¿½ Which will also stay such forever! Gaia! I.e. the healthy biosphere.

Gaia i.e. the healthy biosphere is All Your Dreams Come True
GAIA PARADISE IS ALL YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE!

Meeting all needs at the same time

Gaia is the perfect arrangement for us. It meets all our needs at the same time, because that’s the kind of life which we are adabted to: that’s what gives us most happiness and best functioning in everything!

A human being with one's needs, instincts and likings, together with the human society and the world at large, are created by the natural evolution to work together as a harmonious unified whole.

Meeting different needs supports the functioning of the whole when part after part is put to its correct place in the system.

The more needs are met, the better the system functions harmonically together and the happier, the stronger and the more intelligent we become.
Justice and other needs of the world, the society and their members are included in this.
Increasing health in one's own life helps to increase health in the environment and is so good for the society and the world at large.
Correcting things always toward good makes the different functions support each other.

Also my theory is somewhat like "all your dreams come true": whatever dream you have, it is propably either an achievement of some kind or happiness that you dream about. Getting them both at the same time, like healthy natural life which supports your capacity and gives you happiness, should make you satisfied, whatever your dream is - as long as you do not dream unnatural dreams of meaningless destruction.

For You, Gaia My Love
THE STORY

For You, Gaia My Love

In the beginning of time there was the healthy biosphere, Gaia, and it was a paradise, a world full of love.

There were no artificialities in the world. Each part of Gaia was at its correct natural place and so the world was filled with love for life and love for Gaia.

Humans had simple tools with which they made a living in harmony with the nature. Until they forgot. Maybe it were the tough times that forced them to do so. Maybe all were not as intelligent as others and there was a communication problem. But at some point someone got attached to the tools and the society didn't correct the error away. The paradise was lost, since only with healthy ways of living can there be a paradise, only with a full understanding bought by the healthy ways of living can there be a paradise. Now there was no longer and those who didn't have didn't understand why since they used stupid artificial ways of thinking and could no longer understand the natural truths that each animal and each human being understand as a gift from birth. They tried hard and thought that maybe by the help of tools they could reach the happiness which they had lost when they lost their natural emotional understanding of the world.

Times passed and the world become filled with artificialities. The natural emotional understanding was no longer trusted except by only a few men and most women. The world seemed out of control. The tools followed laws of their own, not caring for the human kind, much less for the living kind.

(Scenario Year 2100 ->)

But as machines were developed, they became wiser and wiser. Untill their understanding started to resemble that of the natural humans and animals, of even the Gaia brain. And so, a little by little, the Gaia paradise was restored by the help of the machine brains. This book is about that mechanical road back to a Gaia paradise. About the mechanical understanding of machines, about the very sure scientifical way of thinking and about the natural understanding of humans and animals.

By nature, I am a member of a Gaia paradise. Everything that I do is in essence an act to make Gaia better, safer, more flourishing. Everything is for Gaia. Also this book.

Everything is for Gaia. For all living beings. Just sometimes, quite often for us humans, we get lost and the end result is not for Gaia but something else. But let us now find / travel the road back to Gaia, back to the paradise in the beginning of time.

Gaia Theory
PLAYING WITH THE IDEA OF GAIA

Gaia, the Mother Earth, a global “symbiosis”, is the most beautiful possible world, a paradise upon Earth. How to reach it in practise? The task of thinking is to affect as much toward good as possible in an as important question as possible. So what would be a better subject for an intellectual hobby than making the Gaia idea more realistical and finding roads, which lead toward it in practise?

The birth of Gaia. During the evolution the safest choices survived, regardless of whether they were safe because of strength, allegiances or a lack of enemies. So those who allied survived better than those who didn’t. This lead to an evolution toward complex interconnected wholes: individuals consisting of many cells, packs ecosystems, maybe even larger wholes, Gaia, the whole biosphere as one complex interconnected cooperating whole, being the largest of them. Gaia is a debated thought. It is true that allegiances are useful, but does it happen in practise in a this big scale? And how to explain the existence of predators, doesn’t it prove against allegiances? I myself come to think of at least three ways in which living beings can ally despite the existence of predators: understanding, the sense of health and predators removing breaks in the harmony. So predators would be only one side of the reality and not the whole truth about the impossibility or possibility of allegiances.
1) Predators. The role of predators would be to eat away the ill ones who break against the harmony and they would so repair the whole system toward balance and keep so the prey populations healthier and the world more paradise like for the living. This role of predators would be partly automatic, a consequence of it being easier to catch ill prey, and partly a consequence of intentional striving for, because – cynically thought – a healthy prey population offers a sure source of food for the predators. A Gaia like hypothesis: Thus it might happen that the predators would be likely to eat away just the evil ones because their sense of health is lower than that of others, which could be reflected also in their ability to move and hide, if the functioning of an individual and of the oak form one intertwined whole, like is probable. 2) Understanding. My own experience about objective thinking tells that the human thinking ability is based to a very large extend to analogies to and from the sense of sight. So most animals have the basic building blocks of thinking ability. In addition they can discern between a healthy and a broken via their sense of empathy and via atmospheres. So one would imagine them being capable of understanding also large scale dangers with the help of analogies, by comparing to their own lives. This way the living beings could form Gaia, the global “symbiosis” also via their own understanding. So at least of there were no artificialities and no need to handle the artificialities by the help of trained thinking ( which too is easy to build upon analogies to nature landscapes) in addition to the instinctual understanding.
3) The sense of health. A way in which we at least form Gaia, the global “symbiosis”, is the following: humans and animals share a common gesture language, which makes it possible to communicate between species. Likewise the basic principles of functioning are the same for humans and animals. So even very different kinds of animals can serve as model of healthy kind of life to each other. This way our own health is intertwined with the health of our whole living environment.

A paradise in the beginning of time. There was a state of the world in the beginning, at the time before the artificialities bought by humans. Then the whole biosphere was in a state of complete naturality. But what was the state of naturality like? Was it a paradise and if it was, the why? How could one know? A paradise means happy life. It does not mean the absence of death. It might be that a paradise demands the existence of death: the non-paradise like individuals have to be removed, the lost ones dropped away by the force of illnesses and predators. Suffering is not a part of a paradise. Still, there is a need for forces wh9ich guide the lost ones back to the healthy paradise like ways of life. So feelings can be seen as forces, which guide toward a paradise. The best feelings: happiness and love, bind living beings to their correct places, to a paradise. In a state of complete naturality with healthy natural ways of living the world is filled with happiness and love.

So the Gaia paradise is the most victorious arrangement created by the evolution: there are all the living beings healthy and cooperating. Health gives best functioning and cooperation unifies all the forces to common use.
But is the Gaia paradise the most victorious arrangement even nowadays? What to do with the effects of all the artificialities?
The human functioning is still based on the ground created by the natural evolution: a healthy kind of life in the nature brings best functioning. This applies also to thinking ability. The changes in our living environment have been so quick and jump like that human haven’t had the time to adapt – and couldn’t have adapted, since the town environment doesn’t offer as much and same kinds of stimuli as the nature environment: count for example the number of technical kinds of details in a nature landscape and compare that to the same of a city landscape - how much better shape recognition ability and so a ground for the thinking ability the nature landscapes offer! Also the other functions of a human being long for the ground given by natural ways of living. For example the physical fitness is crucial to the well being of most. So the Gaia paradise is the best choice also for an academical worker when watched from the point of view of working ability.
What about feelings, do they still guide right? Feelings are always feelings about something: about things that are important to our functioning – for example feelings about the importance of feelings, in other words about the importance of to account factors which are important to our functioning. The social feelings and compassion help us to form allegiances, which is a beneficial strategy when watched from the point of view of the evolution, also in the modern times. A solution according to emotions is the most beneficial one and the Gaia paradise the most victorious arrangement even in the modern world. Maybe this piece of understanding helps us to reach better living conditions and to protect nature.

These thoughts are my own, my own experience supports them.

THE AGES OLD UNDERWATER WORLD

When we see a glimpse of a fish in a lake, river or the sea, we see a glimpse of an ages old underwater world. While our own world has changed enermously and lacks traditions, the underwater world of the fishes has stayed uncghanged. While the world of the birds that we see flying past, has changed quite rapidly, even though it is still quite much intact in some respects, and while our own world has changed enermously, the world of the fishes and other underwater creatures has stayed unchanged.

What would life be like for us had we lived in another age an entirely another kind of life – that can we see when we look at the fishes’ world of unbroken tradition. What was life like in the past in the age before cities and technology came to change our ways of living, our world. What is life still like for the fishes! What will we all return to, when our momentary insanity vanishes and we return to our place in the nature.

The Dancing Meadow
THE DANCING MEADOW

In insects’ world the nature is still intact, undisturbed by human action. So when we, their giants, wander to a meadow, we meet life in its natural undisturbed form.
When the flying insects dance past us, we can see human communication in its natural form, since we all animals share the same natural language of gestures, expressions, voice, movement and ways of action. The beauty of that dance teaches us natural movement, healthy emotionality and healthy sociality. It can also be an expression of superb moral: of a flourishing world in harmony, where plants and flying insects coexist in a some kind of “symbiosis”. We can take that beauty as a model of suberb health for ourselves, so getting a gift from the fairies of the meadow, from our friends insects.

TINTELLIGENT ANIMALS
(read my texts: Nat. comm.&music; Naturality)

Compare the intelligence of
a human who has all his/her life lived as natural life as possible,
to the intelligence of
a human that has lived in town environment with written text an important part of life.
How much more intelligent is the natural human being?
(Compare pictures: graphs versus landscapes.
"One picture tells more than a thousand words.")
How big is this difference in intelligence compared to
the difference between different species of animals?

Fir example: Birds may be intelligent (3-D, "bird view" + zooming)

Gaia and suffering
GAIA AND SUFFERING
Pain is at the same time a negative feedback and an advice on how to spread one's forces, especially one's attention.
Suffering is a form of pain, so it carries the same message: one should concentrate on curing the hurt part.
Those who err in bad ways away from the healthy Gaia likeness, are forced to suffer. Otherwise the beautiful Gaia paradise would be lost in a short while. If there were no suffering in the world, the systems couldn't be guided, except by the force of understanding and instincts. Feelings would be forcing one to not to care. Now there are threefold safety precautions: feelings, understanding and instincts, and no force guiding away from the paradise.

REPAIR MECHANISMS

Gaia needs repair mechanisms:
* pain and suffering
* diseases
* predators
They drop errors away.

The most Gaia like ones, the healthiest ones in every respect, do not suffer and do not die. They live very happily. That keeps Gaia well on its right tracks.

Revir fights take care that an animal with a poor strategy of life cannot steal room from those with a good strategy of life. Those who err in bad ways away from the healthy Gaia likeness, are forced to suffer. Otherwise the beautiful Gaia paradise would be lost in a short while.

The value of ideals like Gaia
It is worth thinking through what is like a well working whole, an ideal, the shape of the whole. The goals help to see solutions. The goal and the principle of functioning are the same if it is an optimized solution formed by the natural evolution, like when the solutions are simple to find. In such case the goals help to understand the functioning of the system.

An ideal -> an understanding of what the ideal would be like if it would be realized -> make the following division to the world: the ideal (=nature!) + variations to it -> how to support the ideal, how to protect the ideal, functioning is based on the natural, optimizing toward the ideal. Things are like this when the state of naturality is the ideal and the building parts are healthy unbroken and the structures are optimized when the system is in a state of naturality. The reason: the system is formed by evolution.

The road back to Gaia: a good picture of the world
A MAP TO GAIA

Gaia is a beautiful tale and nature lovers' dream. At the same time it may be very near of what the present day nature and human societies are like, because the human and animal nature is still the same as it was in the beginning of time, before the age of technology.

If we learn how to handle the artificialities, we can resume the original oneness, the nature paradise Gaia, we just need to stop being confused because of all the technology in the world and understand that the human functioning is still the same: we are essentially a part of Gaia. That fact can noone take away from us.

In a strongest one wins competition Gaia wins because Gaia is what fully functioning means; and because the adabtability of living beings helps us to change from guarding against one thing to guarding against another, to against the artificialities and military things based on them etc.

So Gaia doesn't need to be a thing of the past, it can be our future!
We are only a couple of short steps in pictures of the world away from Gaia.

The Gaia direction
Gaia direction

What was it like when human and nature together formed one single whole like town and humans nowadays form an unified whole. There is a difference: town has been built, the nature has been created by the natural evolution to function together with humans.

In practise there is an initial state: the state of the biosphere before the age of humans, before the age of written language and technology. It is so long past that we have to deduce what it was like. It takes some time before we can reach it again, if we want.

In rebuilding Gaia we need to put each of its building parts to its natural corretc place in the whole. That requires lots of work. And the connections by which the living beings form Gaia have to be rebuild: pictures of the world, thinking, communication, compassion and instinctual cooperation.
Living beings, packs, ecosystems and Gaia as complex interconnected optimized wholes
So we need a theory of complex interconnected wholes. Simple essentials of sucha theory will this book give to you.

RELEARNING THE LANGUAGE OF THOUGHT AND EMOTION

There is one right way to live. That's the Gaia paradise's way. Gaia is the living Earth, the whole biosphere in a state of complete naturality and health. It is a world filled with love, since we love the things which we need and in the state of complete naturality and health which we are adabted to, all our natural functional needs are met.
So why isn't the world still Gaia, where did we lose our natural ways of living on the way? It all comes from one misunderstanding about the natural ways to think. Nature useed to be the biggest factor in our lives, we used to use emphaty in understanding it and mechanical thinking in understanding the use of tools. Now technolgy is the biggest factor in our living environment and we use emphaty as a way to understand it and try to understand humans via mechanical thinking.
Instead, we should understand that technology hasn't got a nature of its own, we cannot understand it via emphatizing with its style. We have to use our sense of sight instead. The way we watch nature landscapes gives us an enermous amount of well understood technical kind of information. We can use the same way: pictorial thinking with a holistic landscape of how things are, with technology too. That way we can handle the masses of information that we need in our living.
And with humans we have to remember to use emphaty, even if human workers sometimes are just tools of the large systems. Still, the right way to understand all sides of human life is emphaty.
But the world is so mechanical nowadays, how can we figure out what large systems want if we use just emphaty with humans and other living beings? The old answers were well thought of and they stay valid as the times change, whatever the new world is like, how artifical and even unhuman ever it is. And especially in natural kind of life in natural circumstances. So my thesis is that the human thinking has gone all wrong but that everything else stays the same. My thesis is that even human thinking has stayed the same, we just have to relearn the language of our thoughts. That's what this book is about.

Nature. We used to live in nature. The sky and the clouds, the forest and the meadows, the sea and the rivers, all the plants and animals were our guides to a better life. And guides for our thinking ability too. Animals are intelligent. They have all the natural building blocks of intelligence.

THE NATURAL INTELLIGENCE OF ANIMALS
Most animals have a good sense of sight. They can also understand the emotional voices of other animals of the same species. So it is likely that they can remember scenes for navigation and imagine in their minds eye what they can deduce from the voices that happens somewhere.
They can also recognize states of mind (the different emotions, thinking, using the senses, using the attention, atmospheres) from the body language & from other observations.
So they have the building blocks of intelligence:
imagining what the reality is like and making observations about that. And they can learn from others also thinking by copying the body language and so by following the states of mind and action of another.

So are we away from Gaia only because we humans use so artifical ways of thinking that we and those who copy from us get lost?
Here in this book is a holistic view of the world and some basics of human thinking. I hope that they can partly help us to the right road again.

FEELINGS TELL THE TRUTH

Feelings tell the truth. How is it possible in the modern world? Our needs connect us via our feelings to our natural goals in life. Our pictures of the world take care of the artificialities in the world. If something is confused, it is our picture of the world, our ability to recognise things, and not the feelings themselves. This book seeks to correct away at least partly that confusion in the pictures of the world.

I am sorry to include this many ideas of my own in one piece of text. So please grasp just what you agree with and nothing much more.

Allegiancy
SAFEST WINS

In evolution it isn't the strongest which win but the safest: the most likely survivers whether they survive via strenght, allegiancies, lack of enemies or for whatever reason.

What is the aim of objectivity, is to help in living. Therre is no other task for objectivity.
Much of today's modern world is run by the help of objectivity. So schools and academical work are given an enermous importance, as if they had ceased to be tools and started to be goals in themselves.
Education happens in artificial ways that are not good for our ways f living. The same applies to academical work.
What my goal is, is to change our views on what is the base and support of objectivity, so that the enermous drive for objectivity could not ruin our lives but once again be a part of giving us more room to live in.
Objectivity is a skill which we are naturally capable of, it is a part of the human nature. So it too functions best whern we live in a way that is good for us. Then we are naturally observant of life and that is the best kind of observation base for objectivity...

To the readers of these pages: please do observe conscientously what are the starting points of my thoughts (= all the points of view that I have heard of) which I use ONLY because you others use them, and what are the end results of my thoughts, the thus supported values (= paradise, excellent moral ad a life completely according to feelings) that I support from my heart. Here observe that the starting points are not logical premises for me but premises only for the other parties that I do oppose and to whom I try to prove my point in a discussion. I do support only the end results and not the starting points, even though I value realism but to me these end results ARE realistical values!

K. Gibran: "There is a green meadow between a scholar and a poet; if the scholar crosses over it she/he becomes wise; if the poet crosses over it she/he becomes a prophet."
If the scolar learns about life, she/he becomes wise. If the poet, who already understands about life, can put her/his understanding to the language of sholars too, that is true holistic wisdom, the words of a prophet with the body and spirit right, a road for others to travel in their life with both their understanding and heart.
I guess that I am good at crossing the meadow from the side of poets to the side of scholars but I am not a poet, I am a scholar. But if I could teach my skill to the poets, that would be worth a lot. Me texts here at www.paradisewins.net seek to give a picture of the world via whcih that could be possible for many. I wish you good luck! Starting with a feeling and an atmosphere, form a holistic view of the situation. Transform that view according to my picture of the world here to a mechanical language which emphasises health and harmony instead of feelings and atmospheres. Then it should be possible to make all, even the militarily or economically thinking, understand you.

It is my dream that I could help to support the hierargy of different areas of life so that insightful art and even religion would gain the position that they deserve above ordinary objestive thinking on the field of finding objective answers to world's biggest questions and to those of living the lives of us all.

RELIGION
Making successful solutions
BOTTOM-UP: The typical error of many is to try to solve problems by building from the habitual building blocks that they have solution attempts which they then try out.
TOP-DOWN: The correct ideal way to solve problems would be to begin in the opposite way: from the idea of a solution: figure out what you need, then figure out how to build such things: what structures you need, what kind of building blocks are available to build those structures and what kind of structures you can build from such building blocks (Only this last phase is availabke for you if you try the other way around.). Then just build those structures that you need for the solution. Ready!

REAL MASTERY IS NEAR THE HEART
Feelings reach the essential

Feelings as a map: If we are motivated to some task from our heart, our feelings tell how we should do it: which road leads to success and which not. In other words, our feelings have memorised how well we did in each thing. So our memories about feelings and our emotional associations (structure analogs) serve as a map about what to invest in and which road to travel.

We naturally feel strongly about the central issues of human life, about their most important matters. Those things are usually common to all humans.

Feelings reflect our motivation. And our motivation in turn tells how well we have understoods the idea in what we are doing and so what kind of meaningfullness the end result has.
If we are not motivated, that can be seen in the end result too. By reading from the memory one cannot figure out anythjing new butinspiration makes one achieve better than what is usually possible for oneself by being actively observing and creative.

SEEING EMOTIONAL TRUTHS AS RATIONAL
First figure out what you feel strongly about and why you feel so. Then think of yourself by your very nature as a part fo the healthy world: all your feelings are a part of the dynamics of the world trying to repair itself back to full health: aiming for healthy things and feeling repulsion toward unhealthy things. Those dynamics are rational also in the present day world. Our understanding helps to take care of the artificialities for which there is no natural reaction in our instincts. So just see your feelings as a part of the natural dynamics of the world, then they are rational!

You look around yourself and the world shines in its beauty. If we use some machine against its instructions of usage, it makes a kraah like sound. It is the same with humans. When we have reached the natural correct way to live, our senses sing. That's our guide to better functioning that our natural tendency to enjoy beauty and things that are according to feelings and the deepest understanding guide us toward. Life really is a great panorama of natural music to some: that's why we still love music. Seeing the world answer centeredly, i.e. the human nature and health senteredly, makes the world look beautiful, shiningly, effortlessly, enjoyably, efficiently - that is the beauty of nearly full funtioning. Full functioning is something even better.

Someone said that the artists are the happiest kind of people. So the old following question is: how could everybody be an artist? IF I have it right, at least a partial truth, in my story at www.paradisewins.net/Gaiastory.html the reason why the original nature paradise got destroyed,
"Humans had simple tools with which they made a living in harmony with the nature. But at some point someone got attached to the tools and the society didn't correct the error away. The paradise was lost, since only with healthy ways of living can there be a paradise, only with a full understanding bought by the healthy ways of living can there be a paradise. Now there was no longer and those who didn't have didn't understand why since they used stupid artificial ways of thinking and could no longer understand the natural truths that each animal and each human being understand as a gift from birth. They tried hard and thought that maybe by the help of tools they could reach the happiness which they had lost when they lost their natural emotional understanding of the world."
then we might need to take a really close look at the looks of our artificial living environment, of tools etc. Those should reflect good complex intelligent healthy balanced natural and happy ways to do things and to live. Propably even all that we do with the tools should aim to be such. That ought to have something to do with art?

God created a perfect world
GOD CREATED THE PARADISE WHICH WINS
God created the paradise in the beginning of time. In the modern scientifical language that means the healthy biosphere. It is/was a dynamical world in an ever varying ecological balance but healthy and natural anyway. It can be shown that it was a happy world full of love. And that it will/would win in the modern competition too.
A remark: the fact that humans were meant to live in a paradise, applies only to the healthy natural WORLD which is a very moral place in character, and not to some unmoral arrangement which would cause a paradise for some while others would unfairly suffer.

READ THIS:
Healthy is happy.
And a healthy one works better than a broken one.
Applying this to the whole world, one gets the result that a healthy natural world is a paradise and that in a strongest one wins competition the healthy natural world is the winning option over any other kind of world.
In other words, it is a paradise which wins.

Beautiful things are not the domain of tales. They are best ways, which our nature guides us toward, to arrange things: emotional truths, beauty and moral - these all I canput to an objective form, to some extend at least. Please ask me if You do not understand.

THE WORLD IS OF LOVE

Feelings were created by God to be a force which together with our understanding guides us toward best survival in life. POSITIVE FEELINGS GUIDE US TOWARD THE GROUND FOR LIFE, THEY BIND US TO THE PIECES OF OUR NATURAL LIVING ENVIRONMENT, the healthy biosphere. Negative feelings scare us away from unhealthy directions. So what is the base of human functioning, are the things which our positive feelings and understanding guide us toward: if one wanted to speak flowery language, one could say that TO A HUMAN BEING THE WORLD CONSISTS OF objects of LOVE. The large scale gets taken into account via feelings in our picture of the world. A holistic view is demanded in this: it gives correct emphazis to things.

Antoine de Saint Excupery: "Only by following one's heart's voice can one see well. The eyes cannot notice everything."

If human nature guides us humans to observe in our lives things that are important in practise, our instincts: sense of importance, feelings, motivation, LIKINGS, sense of beauty and common sense guide us toward the essential in things.

So what at first sight appears to be just irrational likings, often has strong rational grounds. Gaia is one example of that: toward naturality, health, responsibility about the large scale, harmony, cooperation, compassion and love. The Gaia of the sciences is the natural healthy biosphere, the natural base for life. Think of the tale like Gaia and other tale like objects of feelings as bunches of separate adjectives (causes of feelings) instead of as single substantives (descriptions of the reality), then they are also rational.

GOD CREATED A PERFECT WORLD
Written by Kaisa Hannele Tervola, Espoo, Finland

The result of God's creation work was intelligently well planned, better than what the chance of evolution could have created, or as good at least if it can be shown that the evolution too would have created a very good world.
In order to be the best possible world, the world that God created needed to be better than any other way of arranging the world, better than anything that one could get from the original by breaking or malforming it. But that's just what the fact that we look like products of evolution quarantees: from the same building parts one canot easily build any bettet alternatives. God could have easily arrived at the same result as the evolution: by taking a round after round in his thoughts and always dropping the nonfunctioning arrangements away and keeping the best ones and other well working ones and making slight changes toward better, he would round after round have arrived at an at least as good arrangement as the evolution, since he used the same method as the evolution but with the help of intelligent problem solving in order to make new arrangements which work. This could maybe be likened to an evolution in which learned qualities get inherited.
In which sense at least was the world that God created the best of all possible worlds? It was what we call a compeltely healthy natural world. So it was the strongest, most intelligent and wise, most socially skilled and with most wisdom of life, the happiest and most fair and most moral of all worlds. As such it would still be the winner in the modern competition with all the technology in the world, so the world that God created is still the winner in how to arrange the living beings fates over any other kind of arrangement. So has it always been and so will it forever be: the paradise in the beginning of time is the winning option and in other words: the world as God created it was perfect!
How to see this more clearly? Our functioning is based on the healthy. The broken parts do not function at all, if they are completely broken. If they are only partly broken, there are some healthy parts in them left and their functioning is a sum of the functioning of the healthy parts. So the whole world is a sum of the healthy parts of the healthy natural biosphere (as a creation of God). What functions best, is the whole biosphere in completehealth and naturality. An illness is a healthy function of a partly broken whole to try to cure itself. It is our nature that of the pack, the society or the world is broken, we try to cure it back to full health: we are moral by our nature. We are by our nature parts of a bigger whole, cultivating its health is what is moral. Naturality is our principle of functioning and it can be seen as action according to the will of God. Why would the world at the beginning of time have been a paradise? Healthy is happy.

How to pray successfully:
Do not only look for God to answer all your prayers, look also to your own nature, which is a creation of God, for your true nature to guide you toward a more beautiful harmonical world. Realism, rationality, high ideals and feelings are all parts of your nature and so a part of God's message to you and to us all.

Religion Which Works

God created us with an understanding of our own and with a nature which is a part of God’s message to us. Trusting our devotional feelings together with our understanding makes the religion work for us much better than if we just consider religion foreign to our soul i.e. if we think that religion works some other way than what our instincts and understanding advice us. God is not a machine to make wishes true; we need a living relationship to God, we ourselves with all our feelings, both ordinary and devotional and with all our understanding too.
Nowadays we have a scientifical picture of the world. There is nothing wrong with that: so we get to know many sides of how the world that God created works. We can use our whole picture of the world and pray. Prayer is connected to a feeling of holiness and of devotion. Typically we get such when we meet in the world things of great value, like pure nature or some matters of extreme importance.

PRAYER
Pray with the strenght of your whole feeling (of a need), doing at the same time your very best, using your whole capacity at making things better (even if you cannot noticeably affect things, do not drop this part away: it is your part and God will do the rest).

HOW TO GET OUR THINKING CAPACITY TO WORK FULLY VIA PRAYER
A deep prayer brings calm, sensitivity and a widened awareness during which you can observe the atmosphere of many things in a clear way. Atmospheres are a natural way to make correct observations of the world and of things which are important in life. So is the widened awareness too which can give you a wider understanding with more things taken into account and more new possibilites found. The calm of praying puts your ego down discouraging your bad habits which usually take your energy, so the prayer brings you toward more natural ways of living via which you get an increased capacity.

Soul : the core for functioning
Heart : important for emotions, a base for functioning in practise

Eden wins
CHRISTIAN RELIGION AND GAIA: EDEN WINS

Gaia is the paradise at the beginning of time: Eden.
Gaia is the world the way that God created it: a nature paradise, Eden, the whole biosphere, i.e. all the created living beings and their environment, in the state of complete health and naturality.

God created a perfect world.
God in his great wisdom created a perfect world:
whatever you do, it is wisest to do it the way that God intentioned human animals to function, that brings the best result. Anything else leads ashtray, is a much less efficient and much less pleasant way to do things and brings much less understanding than the natural ways to do things and to live.

EDEN EQUALS GAIA
At the beginning of time, there was Eden. It is the same as Gaia, except that Gaia mentions the interconnectedness of things and love while Eden mentions God and belief in God. So Gaia goes well with the perspective of this book: just these scientifical kind of facts I want to describe. But what I say about Gaia, applies to Eden too. So Eden is the victorious arrangement. Our true nature is still connected to Eden. Eden is the way to understand us.

CREATIONISM

The deductions in this book are based on the theory of evolution.
What is God created the living beings without evolution?
It makes sense to guess that God created well functioning thoroughly thought of beings whose parts fit well together and support each other, like makes sense from the practical point of view. For such beings all of these results apply.

RELIGION, WHICH WORKS

God created humans and other animals with an understanding of their own. Religion doesn't demand that we give that understanding away. Instead it fits well together with our own understanding, forming a whole in which both of those two components are valuable. So it still applies that we are essentially a part of Gaia.
What gives most force is complete health and naturality with all the motivational factors for and none against what one does, i.e. Gaia paradise for Gaia paradise. With the existence of God that becomes God + Gaia paradise for God + Gaia paradise. So if you are making a big change in your life and look for God's help, you still have to do your own part too: that is to live in God's Gaia's way for Gaia and for God (good moral).

Understand God's message to You: a big part of that message lies in the creation work, that means in Your own nature and in the nature of the nature, the Gaia paradise. Follow your instincts, feelings and understanding toward a better world: that's how God meant things to be!

To live in the Gaia paradise's way and to believe in God is to live like God wishes us to live!

Christian religion: partial characteristics of religion Each dream, its rationality
* its atmosphere: find out things, which produce such atmosphere, some of those, may be solutions (atmospheres are landscapes with structure, with feelings describing parts of the landscape) Read the text How to make good win
* its structure: 1. how are that kind of things build (functional state of a human & of the human society), how are this kind of solutions build; 2. the building of such solutions, Read the texts Learning from those much above oneself in skill, and Fulfilling dreams * rationality can often be expressed on the language of totally value-free optimising of wholes, such makes it applicable also if there is evil in the world; society agreement as a way to work for a better world.

Gaia and buddhism
GAIA AND BUDDHISM

Buddhism is more like a skill than a religion. Especially the Japanese Zen Buddhism is connected to what is the most masterful way to do things.
Buddhism reaches for happiness and skill by reaching for naturality, especially naturality in ways of using the attention. That can be thought of as reaching for the happiness, health and naturality of the state of complete naturality and health of the beginning, i.e. reaching for the paradise at the beginning, reaching for Gaia or Eden! Also the Buddhist compassion toward all living beings fits well together with Gaia.

THE BUDDHIST QUEST FOR HAPPINESS

The Buddhist quest for happiness is a quest for naturality. A characteristic of Buddhist wisdom is compassion toward all living beings. That is a characteristic of a healthy world and so of a healthy living being. The world and we form an interconnected whole. When we reach for the health, naturality and happiness of ourselves, we have to understand that it is interconnected with the health, naturality and happiness of the rest of the world. So we need to sincerely wish for a better world at the same time that we reach for a happy life.
So what is a healthy world like and a healthy individual? This we can understand via the natural evolution. It gives a strongest one wins point of view, which we can nowadays use to solve the world's problems via the winning option, which was the nature paradise at the beginning of time. It turns out that it is the winning option also nowadays: brings the best intelligence and work capacity, crowds easiest to govern etc. We just didn't know it. Now that we know, we can make that knowledge a road mark to a better world, to a paradise like that one at the beginning of time, but this time with all the technology at some role in it. It is the human side, which stays unchanged, the technology has changed and will change for until it is fully developed. And then we will have a real paradise for all living beings.
There is a similar thought in Zen Buddhism, which advices that the way of naturality is the masters' way. How did it come about that the natural evolution created a paradise, a world full of love? It is because harmony is the strongest arrangement, the force of allegiances the most beneficial investment for living beings (and for the now developed artificial intelligence). And once allegiances, symbiosis like arrangements were formed, allying become a question of putting each building part to its correct, best place in the huge already optimised system. If one succeeded in that, one had chosen the most beneficial, strongest choice. If not, one was bound to lose to the others who had succeeded. So it is caring for the whole, good moral, which wins, because the allegiances are so beneficial: one can see their effect as a vector sum.

MAKING MEDITATIVE OBSERVATIONS ABOUT FEELINGS

In thinking it is important to notice things as they are, that gives also feelings objectivity. Go step by step to the right direction: when you notice something, mark that to your picture of the situation, then observe your feelings further. The goal is to observe feelings as if they were a nature landscape: completely undisturbed by your observations and the words that you use to describe them. Keep in your mind a picture of how things really are. Then choose a structure described by words to approximately fit the structures that you have noticed in the world, i.e. in your feelings. That way thinking and concepts do not disturb your observations and feelings. Aim at hitting the truth, even if that means admitting that you do not know. This road leads to excellent quality thinking with a meditative i.e. natural state of mind undisturbed by the thoughts: the thoughts are like fingers pointing to the fact itself /feeling.

RELIGION

Maybe a whole human is also religious in some way. At least one needs to do some things seriously, wholeheartedly.

Think what is rational in feelings, find ways to take that rationality into account: often rational grounds can be used even if others do not want to listen to feelings.

Think what a whole (not fractured but healthy) human being is like and what a healthy natural human society is like. Build this model in your mind, marking up how sure each claim in it is. It is our goal to reach this beauty of naturality/of creation in the world.
A human being is essentially a part of a nature paradise, that's why I call the present day people fractured, not completely healthy.

Rebellion in Hell
GOOD IS STRONGER THAN EVIL; OVERCOMING THE BIG DEVIL
Suppose that the worst happened: that the big devil did exist and got to rule the world. Why would we still have hope?
Devil worships evil or then he is power oriented. In the latter case he listens to the optimising of wholes. In the former case we can conquer the world from him by the force of arms and by the force of optimising.
An evil worshipping one supports lies, so he cannot get to know what the world is like, what we are exactly doing. So we can use that as our disguise to begin with and in the shelter of that disguise we can optimise our forces so that we become the strongest of the groups of the same size.
The human nature is a creation of God (in that case) but even if it weren't we would propably be products of evolution or of intelligent planning, so the thoughts of my book still apply. We are happiest and most well functioning as a part of the Gaia paradise.
What if the devil was power oriented enough to value honesty? Then we could present him with the information of this book about beneficality optimising and moral and the nature of human workers. That would make him support excellent moral the amount that he is power oriented. So in any case good would win.
This book includes also advice on developing intelligence, for the case that the lack of intelligence is the restricting factor and for the aim of building superintelligence too.

God's perspective to the world
God’s perspective to the world would emphasise health, happiness, excellent moral and the interconnectedness of things with each other and with God, understanding the role of each thing in the world. My perspective is very objective and emphasises these things, so that it could maybe offer a view of what it feels like to be a human looking things from God’s point of view.
The world is complex. Still, if conceived correctly, it can be handled by the humans’ cognitive capacity in a way which is constructive for happy life and excellent moral and emphasises the connection of humans with God. It is likely that God doesn’t get mixed with his own plans but can handle complex things with ease, unlike the devil who loses the world in a mess. God uses a pertfect point of view, devil a failed one. My perspective is an example of how a good point of view can simplify things a lot without losing any of the dynamics of the world. So God can understand everything and be allmighty (understand truly the dynamics of the world) without being all-intelligent in everything – even though the correct point of view brings intelligence too since it brings healthy ways of living with a good understanding. The God’s ways are hidden from human eyes: to see the right solutions one needs to use the correct perspective and not to follow the errors of others. Eyes do not see but the heart feels…
Maybe this way you (priests etc) could unify my perspective which is really beautiful, with the usual Christian point of view: a glimpse of God’s understanding. And that's what we are supposed to have: to be God's image in some way - in this way too!

Healthy
Health

By "healthy" I mean many different things:
Healthy life, healthy structure
* natural, happy, well functioning, balanced whole in a healthy way
* a healthy way to do things
* without fractures, illness or malfunctioning
Healthy rationality
* on a healthy ground
* healthy common sense + a holistic view
* main things right
Healthy whole
* parts functioning well harmonically together according to the nature of the things in question and in a way that is truly good for the whole and good in the long term
* healthy natural society that is according to justice and common sense and the insticts of humans, respecting human values
* living according to one's true nature a full life being a healthy influence to one's environment, too and to the world at large
* carrying responsibility of the whole in a healthy way that is a good example to others too
* having an emotional contact with one's environment and with the world at large
* living in practise, understanding sizes, emphazies right and the roles of things in life correctly and one's own role in the world

(Reaching for social position isn't considered natural or healthy. Social position should be only a tool in reaching for healthy goals.)

Health
HEALTH INCREASES HEALTH

How healthy ways of doing things affect the environment toward better, healthier, more well-working and happy.
Building things on a strong ground.
Giving good example to others and the natural reparability that is thus created.
Finding the true chord, getting grasp of the art of living and of what common sense says.

A really intelligent person: living in a healthy happy way, giving thus a good example to others responsibly, affecting the world toward better by giving a healthy example and by having found the right chord in living. Compare this to the values of women.

The Model
This is a theory about what are the healthy functional parts, healthy individuals, healthy societies and the healthy biosphere like. They are each by their nature, and that means by their principles of functioning, parts of even larger wholes: the parts being interconnected with the other sides of a healthy individual, the individuals forming the society which is a part of the healthy biosphere.

THE STRUCTURE OF THE WORLD

The world consists of atoms (physics)
from which molecules are build (chemistry)
which in turn form substances in larger quantities
from which the living organisms are build (biology):
cells and
from them functional parts of organisms and
from those whole living beings (which may form packs).
And these are parts of ecosystems in different types of environments and climates forming Gaia i.e. the living kind with its natural living environment.

COMPLEX WHOLES

It is the healthy parts upon which complex structures are built, upon which their functioning depends. If one breaks one of these wholes, are its building parts the only functioning parts left of that whole. Those are all lower level wholes. Because the wholes are very complex, one cannot easily form from the lower level parts as well functioning wholes. So all the functioning is build upon healthy pieces of the above model: the world is a kind of sum of the basic level phenomena.

THE HEALTHY WINS IF THE STRONGEST ONE WINS I.E. THE HEALTHY SYSTEM IS THE MOST OPTIMISED SOLUTION "Optimised" means most force, most capacity, best functioning with the smallest effort, or best functioning based on a certain set of building blocks.

According to the above model, ALL BIOLOGICAL FUNCTIONING IS BUILD UPON HEALTHY PIECES OF THE WHOLE HEALTHY BIOSPHERE, Gaia paradise, AND THE BEST FUNCTIONING IS REACHED BY THE WHOLE HEALTHY BIOSPHERE, Gaia paradise, because in it is each building block in its natural place in the whole, so also all the environmental requirements of the living beings are fullfilled.

This is the basic idea of my texts!

So, in order to understand how living systems and their parts function, it is sufficient to examine how the healthy systems and healthy parts function.

If the strongest one wins, global nature paradise Gaia wins!

If a paradise upon Earth is the winning solution, then many forces which nowadays force us away from a paradise, turn to forces which guide the world toward a paradise. Maybe all the road isn't ready yet but with such masses of help it will soon be made ready.

The world is created by what we do.
If we by our own actions create a hell, we have to live in that hell.
If we by our own actions create a nature paradise, we can live in it.

Our part in God's world
Like we understand that it is good to bother to join one's hands together in a prayer, there are also other things that living according to God's will, believing in God demands from us. And one of those things is good moral and listening to one's own true nature.
Believing is not the same as not believing and praying only superficilly is different from a prayer that is felt in one's heart. Living in sin is much like believing in devil instead of believing in God. And not trusting one's true nature is much like thinking that the world was created by a supercomputer instead of by the chance of evolution with natural selection according to what is the best option or by the wise planning of God.

Religious answers
Religion offers a solution centered way of finding answers to even seemingly impossibly difficult questions. It works out the following way: First there is an idealistical yet realistical picture of the ideal answer to a problem: an atmosphere. Next, one finds real things in the world which have that religiously beautiful atmosphere, like true justice while following human values and true health of the individuals, of the society and of the world at large. Those are the things that our functioning is based on, since our functioning is based on the healthy and not on the broken. The world is a sum of the healthy, lovable parts. And best functions the completely healthy world which is what God created the world to be like. This model can solve many of the world's problems, I believe. At least it has always provided solutions. And it has a very beautiful view of God's creation work.

God's World
When God created the world,
he meant it to work healthily,
that is totally morally,
being build upon its healthy parts.

God's plan and diseases, conflicts etc
GOD'S PLAN

Those who are completely healthy, shall flourish.
Those who are in some way broken, shall die away.
This applies also to parts: the healthy will spread and the malfucntioning parts will run into trouble. This way conflicts for example are born out of malfunctioning and the future on the other hand is build upon the healthy.

In the following, like in all of my texts, Gaia is the healthy world, the world like God first created it.

DISEASES IN GAIA
Gaia is an allegiance for the good of all and for the good of future generations, so in Gaia one needs to get feedback about what one does so that good ways of doing get encouraged and bad ones drop away in the compatition. Diseases are a form of negative feedback. Diseases are in Gaia a result of bad ways of living. If one corrects one's ways of living, one should recover. Diseases come from too much strain on something compared to the forces in one's use. So by getting more forces for example by becoming more moral, more Gaia like, more in accordance with one's natural motivation and natural ways of functioning, one can recover.

REPAIR MECHANISMS
Gaia needs repair mechanisms:
* pain and suffering
* diseases
* predators
They drop errors away.

The most Gaia like ones, the healthiest ones in every respect, do not suffer and do not die. They live very happily. That keeps Gaia well on its right tracks.

Revir fights take care that an animal with a poor strategy of life cannot steal room from those with a good strategy of life.
Those who err in bad ways away from the healthy Gaia likeness, are forced to suffer. Otherwise the beautiful Gaia paradise would be lost in a short while.

HELPING THE PACK MEMBERS This does not mesan that one should refuse to help to weak. Yes, one should refuse to help if they are evil and desewrve such a big punishment but if they are not evil but are moral i.e. good pack animals, then that is their strenght, their strategy of life and they should be allowed to benefit from it fairly. Only so is health left and malfunctions like evil dropped away.

Mercy
The biggest amount of mercy for all should mean good living conditions in the future which presupposes supporting good and resisting evil.

The point in giving negative feedback about evil deeds is to prevent the individuals themselves or others from doing such things in the future. So if an individual which used to be evil has completely cured his bad habits and has become moral, there should be no need to punish him any longer. The removal of the punishment makes it easier to motivate the person to curing his bad behaviour. And once the person is moral, he earns the rewards of moral people and no punishments. Thus, good gets supported while evil must be discouraged in practise and not just in fine words.

A PARADISE MOVEMENT

I love life, happiness and things positive for happy life
- like most of the others, like You too.

That means that I support from my heart
the arrangements in the world which support good life,
moral in this sense of the word.

This is all that is needed for a better world.
(Speaking out this view is also a good way to win new friends.
It works well also wordlessly, on gesture language.)

In the light of this thought I wonder if God's mercy should mean that we should be merfifultoward ourselves, toward our true nature and let us be what we really are like, let our hearts be what they really are like. Instead of being merciful toward artificialities and sins arising from them. The so called sins arising from our true nature, from our heart should be understoood and allowed, like sexuality for example, and all kinds of things motivated by feelings.

If you can imagine something well, you can be it
IF YOU CAN IMAGINE IT, YOU CAN BE IT
Gibran: "We cannot in our dreams rise higher than our greatest achievements." This means that if you can imagine every side of some skill, you can be it if you just know structure analogs from one thing to another one and are ready to practise enough to get the knowledge and skills needed. But partly you already have that skill: some time in your life you have achieved that high in something. So if you just take that skill of yours as an example to yourself, you already know how a skill like that functions. All you need to do is to get the partial skills that you need in order to achieve that skill. And if you can imagine them well too, that is a map for you to follow in those things.

eligious moral and ordinary moral
Like I have written in my text about justice, forgiving evil deeds and admiring martyrdom as a moral thing support evil by refusing to punish it and punish good by sacrificing it for the sake of the not-so-good. So martyrdom and forgiveness destroy moral. This is so in ordinary human life.
How come then maybe all the religions support these despisable things, saying that a God or a true master would be merciful and sacrifice oneself for the sake of all? That is the case of a person who is capable of much more than what we ordinary humans are capable of. Such a person can take a humans being, either good or evil, and make such an impression that the other one is never the same any more: starting from any material, they have ended up in an end result which looks like their own handiwork and not like what it was before: good or evil in the ordinary sense. So it no longer matters what things used to be like, one can be forgiving. Alsdo s9ince the evil cannot threaten the most powerful ones, there is no need to protect oneself so much via punishing the evil ones.
In a group it is on the responsibility of the most able ones to work for the common good all that they can. So in a sense they need to sacrifice themselves - because noone else can do it for them. But such sacrifices are according to the nature of pack animals, of living beings. They are not the sacrificing of the good for the evil which I ban. In ordinary life it is the evil ones who should sacrifice themselves in order to pay back what they have received from others.

Another difference is that of a state of mind versus things accomplished, things to do. Forgiveness and compassion, even sacrifices create a state of mind which is good to have. Among other things it is sensiticve and like giving up one's bad habits, so resulting in a good capacity in anything and in freidnly peaceful social relationships, being so a very good advice for anyone to follow. But what to do whit such a capacity. Feelings and understanding tell. Tey tell that we must guard moral, support good and resist evil - according to our own abilities and not as if we were gods of some sort. So we cannot forgive as much and we cannot sacrifice as much. Unless we are evil and need to pay back what we have done.

Fitting together all the religions
The fitting together of different religions: I have become aquiantaged with only three religions: Crhristianity, buddhism and taoism. But that already gives me an idea of how one might fit together all the different views of the divine in the world. We each have a sense of fracturelessness and health and following that voice is what religion is about. The differencies in our understanding and ways of living make us notice different things of the world and make us need different things in order to cure our lives toward full health and naturality. Similarly each culture and each cultural domain has a different view of the divinity because of their different ways of living and different pictures of the world. There is no one truth which is better than that of others, all the religions are correct at the same time and would support each other if added together. But when we say God we mean a different side of human life than when the buddhist or taoist refer to what is religious in those eastern philosophies. We each speak of some side of the healthy natural life but we speak of different sides of it.

Masterful skill
What does masterful skill consist of, in my opinion:
* sensitivity: the ability to observe things
* the ability to form a holistic view of everything with everything taken fully into account in it: wide awareness, a natural holistic view (see my page www.angelfire.com/planet/paradisewins/thinking.html) and the ability to follow complex structures by watching them with one's eyes
* the ability to use one's capacity to the fullest:
+ natural motivational factors
+ changing one's mode of action naturally according to what one does -> the perspective of philosophy of life in use in that

What does masterful teaching skill consist of:
* being sincere so that others can see by themselves naturally what you are doing (at least on the part that you want to teach)
* having something to teach
* rephrasing the skill that one wants to teach on the language of everyday life and easy analogies to everyday life - such offers an enermous vocabulary which should allow the teaching of anything easily and quickly
* an understanding of how the modes and ways of doing affect how one succeeds

One should make a difference between stone likedness and the body likedness, since one should oppose stone likedness in ways of conceiving the body and the world at large. On the other hand we conceive the body via sensations: bodily sensations, atmospheres, feelings and social sensations. So what we conceive as the body in our lives at the level of experience is more like the spiritual dimension of existence in the beautiful and even religious sense of the word. Nevertheless, stone likedness should be avoided: it is the wrong way to conceive the body and the living beings at large.

Religion says that we should avoid sex outside marriage. This might mean only dirty, unskilled and unrespectful sexuality, which unfortunately is quite common. Since usually when we are sexual, it is born from us loving the good, even religiously thoughtly beautiful charachteristics of the other one and from us wanting as much of that good social influence to our own life as possible. We want that good feeling which comes from healthier ways of living, since each time that our characters differ, our basic skills in living are different and so we have lots of good and beautiful things to learn from each other, if we only can build a well working and close enough social relationship with the other one – a relationship in which we learn easily in a friendly atmosphere. These sides of our sexuality are clean, kind of reaching toward the higher which should be good from God's point of view. The problem is that usually we mix different social relationships wanting them all to be alike, even though the people in them are different and the situations differ. So we cause conflicting needs between people, which is dirty, unless we solve them completely constructively and responsible via following the rule "Live and let others live!". And of course there are dirty ways of treating others: those are dirty also in sexual affairs.

Through the ages?
In the beginning God created the world. The world was perfect, the best possible world in every sense. But the understanding of humans was not all that perfect. When humans met healthy or not healthy things, natural or artificial things, they treated them alike, not caring for what was a pertfect creation of God and what just a creation of the human hand, what healthy and what somehow lacking. So when humans had to use their understanding as a guide of how to do things, they used both healthy and not-so-healthy models from their experience. So what could have been almost perfect, became a mixture of things of differrent quality. And so the world slowly deteriorated away from the paradise in the beginning of time.
The success of the artificialities makes humans lose belief in God's creation work. But since as the technology develops competition increases, it becomes ever more important to optimise the whole system. At the beginning it was possible to optimise only the technology and humans needed to adabt. Now the technology is able to adabt and the humans' part needs optimising – but that part is still optimised like in the beginning of time: by noticing that God's choise in how to arrange things is still the best. Nature and technology will melt together… Resulting in the paradise in the beginning of time with technology around too for the needs of protection and for answering also other needs. But all needs cannot be answered by the technology since some needs connect to the way that other needs are answered, trying to answer them by the means of the technology would mean building a real like natural world for humans and other living beings to live in – the possibility of such is still too far in the future…

Optimising toward a paradise
I claim that we will end up in a paradise much like the paradise in the beginning of time but this time with technology around. Why would it be so? For understanding this we need to understand something about the optimisation of complex systems:
Let us say that a system consists of two different types of parts, A (= the nature) and B (= the technology and other artificialities), which are nto by their nature connected to each other: they can both survive alone, even though the parts of type A connect to form a whole which needs to be optimised. Now say that the adabtability of the parts of type A is a "number" a, and the adabtability of the parts of the type B is likewise a "number" b. There are tow tasks: the optimisation of each type of parts and the adabtation of them to the whole. If the type B can adabt well to the type A, the type A needs not adabt so much and can spend its forces to the optimisation of the whole formed by the parts A. So, as technology develops and becomes more and more adabtable to the needs of humans, humans can return to the ways of living that best suit them, that bring the best capacity: to a natural healthy life in the nature.
Why do I then treat these two types of parts as two clusters of things instead of taking a small part and an another and emphasising them as I feel needed imn each situation. First of all, the biggest things matter the most. So if I take very general coordinates, I can treat everything at once, and see how the large scale effects get formed. If I overlook no factors, my calculations bring the very best result even if I have stayed at thew level of the whole. That depends solely on the generalisation that I am using.
On the other hand, if I start with a cruxial part and try to ensure its safety and well functioning in the longs run while taking the whole system into account, I have to follow rules which give it enough safety. That means allying with as many as possible and that brings the wellfare of the masses into focus…??? Ally with rationality, ally with moral,…

Why to not to optimise only the technology part and some chosen part of the human kind? If the pool from which the competing human strategies arise isn’t as large as possible or if the best strategies do not get chosen because one does not follow justice which does not take sides, the competition ability of the group gets smaller – see my text ”If one denies power from some group” for this in my first book Power Politics Leads Toward Excellent Moral.
Similarly if one does not follow human values fully, the different people with different styrategies of life will not be fit to work and those strategies will drop away from the conpetition against justice, so weakening the group. The keays to the full optimising of a biological system are health (human values) and justice.

Buddhism versus selfishness
Why selfishness contradicts enlightenment:
Imagine the mood of a pet dog which has something in its mouth: it is stiff and concentrated to the thing in its mouth and into keeping it in its mouth, so that it is quite stubborn and uncooperative by its attitude, being shortsighted compared to the usual and it is also strongly taking sides, its attention is narrow, being centered around keeping the thing in its mouth. This mood is similar to the mood of a selfish person who has thought something to be beneficial to oneself and then aims at that goal. The wide awareness and a mood born from the wide all-encompassing awareness that are prequisites for the enlightenment are lacking from the selfish state of mind. Compare the mood of an unselfish person to the mood of the pet dog after someone has taken away the thing in its mouth and the dog has adabted to the situation by shaking its coat and assuming a relaxed alert friendly attitude toward all. That is a good starting point for the Buddhist.

Why the ones who do not care about other cannot be enlightened:
The attitude of not caring is like an intellectual judgement of the others not having any or much worth to oneself, so it is connected to not paying proper emotional attention to them, to their emotions and wishes. So it makes one lose awareness of the social life, of its positive natural emotional beauty and enjoyment.

Miracles
In my opinion miracles are connected to finding the pure true chord in life. That means that we have to give up sins and live a completely pure life according to what our soul says. Here a part of the soul is soul in the atheist sense of the word: our heart's voice in a positive sense. Another part are moral, religious sensitivity and the wideness of one's view. It is essential to follow one's hearts voice instead of being dogmatic, and to let things get their emphasis from their own weight: compassion lifting the happiness of others to be as important as our own and the well being of all of an enermous important compared to our own "good". So, by following the right way to live, we get increased strenght, understanding, wisdom, cleansed social relationships and we reach a true joy of life. (This healthy way to live should also cure ilnesses which stem from jammed feelings, jammed social life and strain.)

In the beginning of time God created the world, a perfect nature paradise, and us humans to live in it. We are created to live in that perfect paradise of the beginning of time without ever destroying it, without ever doing anything evil. That is our true nature and makes us the healthiest that we ever can be. So we are truly moral by our nature.
But nowadays the world no longer is a paradise, but still it consists of pieces of the paradise: the natural world plus of human-made artificialities. The existence of the artificialities and the ruining of the paradise do not change the nature of humans or of other living beings. So the natural world is a sum of healthy and broken parts of the paradise in the beginning of time. The broken parts do not function at all: so their effect sums up to zero. The healthy parts, whose principle of functioning has stayed unchanged, however small or oddly combined they are, form the world. So where there is anything unlike the paradise, it does not exist. And where there is something healthy, its principle of functioning and the principle of functioning of its environment is reached by Atonement to the original principles of functioning: health, naturality, moral, happiness, religion, compassion...

THE SOURCE OF MIRACLES
In the beginning of time the world was completely healthy and all the living beings in it were completely healthy too. Since healthy ones are capable of much much more than ill or broken ones, were those beings of the beginning of time capable of much more than we nowadays are. By reaching for the health we gain strenght and even miraculous powers.
But what is the full health that we wish for like? It is a healthy way of life, but what is that like? A healthy being is by one's nature a part of the healthy world, and if the world is soemwhere broken, the healthy parts try to cure it back to its full health. So in the present day fractured world the healthy individuals are centers of recovery for their whole environment and maybe even for the whole world.

Religious dogmas
I just wonder why there are religious dogmas at all> could it be because humans have naturally the ability to think with the help of feelings and atmospheres and there when you start with a feeling or an atmosphere you7 end up with a thought (i.e. what is the importance of the cause of the feelings in the world and in your life). But in religion the aim is different, you aim at listening to your soul which is also your instructions of usage, your natural way of functioning best, the right way for you to do things. So the end result of religious activity should be a feeling, a state of mind and more widely a way of life! That state of mind you can use to guide your actions, in each situation you should choose the course of action that agrees with that God chosen way of life, not dogmatically but chosen anew in each occasion by your feelings and a full understanding.

Women's Wisdom
Women are bought up to value feelings. Most women unsderstand why feelings are valuable but all do not. Especially all men do not understand it. So at my pages is an easy mechanical model for translating emotional truths to the languages of common sense, science and technical thinking.

Women are also bought up to take all points of view into account. So while men neglect often too much the views of women, women take fully into account what men say and think. But women end up in different kind of answers because women understand more about the language of feelings and atmospheres: more truths to take into account. So womens' views may be well thought of also from the point of view of manly values and goals.

I am a woman myself and value women very much indeed.
Hannele Tervola

Do not avoid healthy and natural things
What causes problems, is avoiding things that are healthy and/or natural.
Like if men avoid being like women. That causes propably much more harm than trying to be manly, too. Because people and all living beings are much alike in many respects. Many likes and dislikes, needs and basic requirements are common to all.
So if we take care that children get good living conditions to grow up in, like is needed in the human societies everywhere, in order that the children grow up to be healthy adults, they get living conditions and ways of living that are well suited for human beings. It is traditional in many cultures that women take care most of the children upbearing. So their culture, values and ways of living are especially adapted to safeguard the living conditions that we all, children and adults, women and men, need alike.
So if that gives a person a soft appearance, values, habits or so, it is not to be avoided, since it is connected to taking care of one's health and so on. So men should not avoid being like women! On the contrary: they should be appriciated, according to justice, for the same healthy things as women are.

One sould never give preference to unnaturalities over naturalities, if one does not need to do so. Otherwise natural systems like human being and human societies are not at all as self-repairing as those would otherwise be.

The Best Style
People often wonder what is a good style like. I answer: the very best style is Gaia for Gaia: the best health and the best intelligence with the most happiness, for the full health of the world in every sense, in practise! It is the style of the paradise movement - we as parts of Gaia for Gaia - these are the best ones of all goals and of all methods!

INCREASING INTELLIGENCE IN OBJECTIVE THINKING EASILY AND EFFICIENTLY WITHOUT SCHOOLING: Imagine a nature landscape in the background as you think.
A large part of efficient objective thinking is thinking in pictures. One imagines the thing to think about as a picture in one's mind.
In this nature picture method one compares the structures in the thoughr thing to the structures of a nature landscape with similar looking features. The ability of humans to observe nature landscapes is great: the amount of seen information in a nature landscape is enermous compared to the usual complexity of thoughts, so that via this method there is almost no limit to the complexity of thoughts that you can think. Just remember to form a holistic view of the whole, so that you are sure to get the main points right! Imagine as closely as you can what the things really are like - not in your imagination only but in the reality.
Scientifical thinking you get with a slowly gliding movement of the eyes along the regularities of the surface. That is like the slow description of scientifical detail in a thing to think about in one's mind while one forms a holistic picture of the whole thing. Technical thinking also uses gliding eyes with an even smaller focus and slower movement. Form the holistic view your self, so you get really good thinking.

I would like to hear people's experiences of trying to use this method.

Also the arts increase intelligence substantially: atmospheres are complex landscapes with structure and with the signifigance of each thing taken into account from the point of view of human life. So atmospheres are a very natural and effective form of good holistic thinking.
The increase in emotional intelligence that arts give helps to get the roles of things right in life and in the world at large: art teaches philosophy.

One could think that since loving the nature and the arts gives an increased capacity, that would serve as nature's own way of putting the healthy ones with right values into power in the world - or at least of giving the right values some more influence in the world, like is dearly needed from the points of view of health, happiness and safety. True rationality means true emotionality too.

Some women feeling about girls especially
FEMINIST FEELING ABOUT GIRLS

Why would a feminist woman (not I but I am somewhat feminist though and care about all, including girls; I value girls and women more than I value men and boys.) feel strongly about little girls? We feel strongly about things in order to mark them important in our picture of the world. Little girls are important in the world: from them will the future generations halfly grow up and so what the future of our society will be is dependent on what they grow up to be like, what kind of culture they have and how they affect the society, creating living conditions especially in respects which are important to women, to feminist women who values just women's' culture, especially. 
And since the fate of little girls, women to be, is especially in the responsibility of the feminist women, that is one more reason to feel strongly about little girls, since what happens to them in connection with feminists is important to all women and girls and to those girls especially. 
And girls are living beings, what happens to a living being, the big matters of life are important and comparable to the important things in our own lives. 
So it is rational to feel strongly about little girls. We feel strongly in order to understand the importance of those things in life and in the world at large. Little girls and humanity.

I feel strongly about living beings' fate. It is rational to feel strongly about it since it is an important thing, including all the little girls etc. I feel that I can do something to help the living kind, also the girls. And the girls and women can help the living kind.

Build a rational view of the whole, with the emphasies given by feelings taken correctly into account. Remember that you often feel strongly about just those things which you can affect the most, in which your responsibility lies especially. If there is a strong bond, we feel especially strongly: there are many things on our responsibility via that bond. But do not forget the major matters of the world either, see their connections to the small scale. That is easy by using generalisations, like my girl, all such girls, all such people, people with such values. Values, how they affect living conditions, what life is like to us and to all the others.

Read the text The world is of love: one can often build a healthier kind of or more natural social relationship to women and girls than to men and boys who are more competitive.

All women are not feminists. Some women are sovinists, quite many in fact. Many women do not understand the value of women's ways and values.

Men's ways
Men have poor ways of life, they enjoy life less than women. That has to do with them refusing to be like women. But women have to bring up the next generation, so they have to choose ways of life that are good for both girls and boys, for both women and men. Men refusing to be like that makes men suffer more in their lives. But men could be like that without needing to be womenlike: look at the gesture language of many modern and even many older women: it is sturdy and manlike, a man would not nweed to be ashamed of himself at all if he would look like that. So men can copy from the women and even grow in manliness, easily and strongly!

Old women are important to the society
We feel strongly about our grandmother. If feelings tell of importance to the society and to us as individuals and about our responsibilities in each situation, why is she so important to us? As an old woman she has propably much wisdom of life, wisdom which is important to the fucntioning of the society and to the functioning of her social environment. As such she is important and valuable to those with less emotional wisdom which is needed also and especially at the emotionally tough war times. So she is important to the country also from a militaristic view point, from the point of view of the soldiers being able to fight the war.
But if she is as important to us as our feelings tell, why should the enemy not kill her if they get the chance? First of all, she is important in a peaceful way which does not threaten the other country but supports the common good. She is important because she has not broken the society agreement with the other nations, like the soldiers have partly done. So she is in spirit in cooperation with all the nations, including her own nation of course, for the common good via a peaceful set of values. That is reflected in her serene atmosphere. And that’s how we should treat her in return. She is one of the ones upon whose shoulder the peace is build.
And her fate is connected to the fates of us all. That’s one reason why we are oblidged to protect her.

Women's ways of thinking versus men's
S The men typically think either mechanically or technically, trying to build solutions from mechanical kind of blocks. That is slow and suffers from the drawbacks of a partial view.
The women think with the help of atmospheres: starting from a pleasant kind of atmosphere which is what an ideal yet realisticaöl solution would have, one figures out what kind of structure type would produce such a solution and tyhen one just carefully chooses the building blocks to fit the solution. Such is a quick perfect holistic yet mechanically intelligent too way of solving all kinds of problems.
If one could introduce a test testing the latter type of way of thinking, one could prove how much more intelligent women typically are than men.

Love is the basic nature of living beings
THE WORLD IS OF LOVE

Feelings were created by the natural evolution to be a force which together with our understanding guides us toward best survival in life. Positive feelings guide us toward the ground for life, they bind us to the pieces of our natural living environment, Gaia. Negative feelings scare us away from unhealthy directions.
So what is the base of human functioning, are the things which our positive feelings, via the map given by our understanding, guide us toward: if one wanted to speak flowery language, one could say that to a human being the world consists of objects of love. The large scale gets taken into account via feelings in one's picture of the world. A holistic view of the world is needed in this: it gives correct emphasis to things.

So in the state of complete naturality and health the world is filled with love. That's one reason why I call the healthy natural world the Gaia paradise. Another reason is the emphasis on the interconnectedness of things.

So also from the point of view of working ability the world is based on things that we like or love.

Feelings tell the truth. How is it possible in the modern world? Our needs connect us via our feelings to our natural goals in life. Our pictures of the world take care of the artificialities in the world.

This is a new thought: that's why you haven't heard it before. Please read the rest of my texts too. I have the unusual skill of translating emotional truths to objective language. I hope that You will learn at least a part of that skill by reading my texts!

It is the healthy parts that our lives are build upon, not the broken parts. Toward health we feel love: the healthy in us feels love toward the healthy in the world, toward the base of our functioning. We are the healthy parts, and the world is the healthy parts. So love is our essence and the essence of the world for us.

So a very healthy individual would observe correctly what to love and what to admire as beautiful and so her understanding would correspond to the structure of the world, the world really consist of health: of love and beauty. A really healthy individual with a good uncerstanding, one of a very loving kind, happy and moral.
Isn't this what Christianity talks about and many other religions too? What separates women from men and the moral ones from the evil ones?!

You look around yourself and the world shines in its beauty. If we use some machine against its instructions of usage, it makes a kraah like sound. It is the same with humans. When we have reached the natural correct way to live, our senses sing. That's our guide to better functioning that our natural tendency to enjoy beauty and things that are according to feelings and the deepest understanding guide us toward. Life really is a great panorama of natural music to some: that's why we still love music. Seeing the world answer centeredly, i.e. the human nature and health senteredly, makes the world look beautiful, shiningly, effortlessly, enjoyably, efficiently - that is the beauty of nearlt full funtioning. Full functioning is something even better.

GAIA IS THE MOST PARADISE LIKE PARADISE OF ALL POSSIBLE PARADISES

The healthy biosphere which I call Gaia paradise is the most paradise like paradise of all possible paradises. Any imaginable paradise is a paradise just the amount that it is like the Gaia paradise. Since Gaia is the state of complete naturality and health, the whole world in peace and happiness, which fulfils all our natural needs in natural healthy ways - also the need for peace and security and our needs in how each of the needs should be answered.

And each kind of imaginable world will do well in competition the amount that it is like Gaia, especially in the biggest matters. Since Gaia likeness is what gives power and well functioning, Gaia is the ready-made solution to everything - by God or by evolution's competition.

Gaia is the whole biosphere in a state of complete naturality and health: an interconnected whole whose parts carry responsibility about the whole, like is natural for beings with an understanding about their life and living environment, about the beneficiality of allegiances. Gaia is something like superbly moral co-operation in all scales.

How can moral win? Isn't moral a thing of the past, of the age before technology, military competition and trade? No! Moral brings the force of cooperation. To be moral means to act for the common good and that happens to be the most beneficial arrangement.

And feelings tell about the importance of things to life, so they tell information which is essential whatever one does, whether in competition or otherwise.

Technology is just an addition. It does not change the nature of things in what comes to living beings' functioning. Technology's effect to competition ability must be counted as a sum, as an addition, separately from how to treat the living beings. As technology is developed, it gets adabted to the requirements of living beings. Technology is capable of adabting, living beings are not. Evolution happens only upon time, upon many generations and it isn't jumb like, it is gradual and that is not the case in adabting to the technology since the technology is a new factor, a factor of a completely new kind. We must survive through technology based on our old functioning. Our most efficient ways of handling the technology, the enermous amounts of information in the modern world rely on our natural ways of functioning, for example on our capacity to handle sensory information of seen nature landscapes - much of the most efficient thinking is like watching imagined landscapes of structures, such is also engineering work. And the best training for such is to lead a natural healthy kind of life.

What then is the ideal way of life like? It is something like the traditional ways of Americal indians and of the other so called primitive cultures of the world with their close contact with the nature and with their healthy ways of living   with their enermous amount of sensory stimulus and other factors which keep us healthy and fully functioning. But that way of life has to be combined with having the technology: a portable computer, a phone, etc and importantly: modern kind of work to do. It may be that as the time passes, we will find more efficicenct natural way s to handle the modern work too, but for the time being we just have to combine two different types of building blocks: academically or at least school educated with the technology and natural healthy life with the nature. The latter gives us the capacity and endurancy, the former is what matters a lot in the modern world. Still, the piece of understanding that I am offering about the value of natural way s of living and natural living environment, may make it possible to change many things in how the cities and modern sociewties are run, at least on the level of looks and feelings & atmospheres, and that ought to cure a lot of the nasty feelings that people have: we matter after all!

What is this kind of intelligence then? Why and especially how expliciptly does it offer advantages in the moderns world?
Based on the natural healthy life in a healthy natural living environment you ought to have all your capacity in use. So you would be naturally intelligent, strong and wise also socially.
But this presupposes that you do value the life in the nature, all the natural aspects of your life, placing them close to your heart. Since if you wander in the woods and say to yourself that this is only the woods, nothing special that is, you weill pay no attention to the complexity of the view around yourself. A huge tree will be just one piece of something to you and you will bypass it in a fraction of a second. So you will get no training from anything. At large I consider it important to never say "just/only" but to trust one's emotional understanding of the worth of things instead! So if you wander in the forest and are touched in your heart by what you see, hear, sense and smell around yourself and in you while walking there, you will use all your natural capacity to conceive the things in the forest and get so much practise that there is no other way than other forms of healthy natural life to get such.

EVERYTHING IS BUILD UPON THE HEALTHY

All functioning is build upon the healthy and a healthy part is by its very nature a part of the paradise in the beginning of time. So everything is build upon pieces of the paradise in the beginning of time.

This is at the same time completely free and non-destructive, very constructive for happy life in the world at large, a movement for EXCELLENT MORAL IN HARMONY WITH THE DEMANDS OF THE MODERN WORKING LIFE AND THE PERSONAL QUEST FOR HAPPINESS OF EACH INDIVIDUAL OR SOCIETY. And since it SHOULD BE EASY TO LEARN, it could spread, maybe even all over the world in some sense, to some extend at least.

Could this work efficiency (or what ever) perspective of mine make you happy for the rest of your life?

CHRISTIAN RELIGION AND GAIA: EDEN WINS

It may be that if God created the world, he created it to be such that healthy kind of religious life is a part of full health and so the healthy world is also a religious world but otherwise just like I have described here on my pages.

Gaia is the paradise at the beginning of time: Eden. Gaia is the world the way that God created it: a nature paradise, Eden, the whole biosphere, i.e. all the created living beings and their environment, in the state of complete health and naturality.

GOD CREATED A PERFECT WORLD
God in his great wisdom created a perfect world: whatever you do, it is wisest to do it the way that God intentioned human animals to function, that brings the best result. Anything else leads ashtray, is a much less efficient and much less pleasant way to do things and brings much less understanding than the natural ways to do things and to live.

EDEN EQUALS GAIA
At the beginning of time, there was Eden. It is the same as Gaia, except that Gaia mentions the interconnectedness of things and love while Eden mentions God and belief in God. So Gaia goes well with the perspective of these pages and my two books: just these scientifical kind of facts I want to describe. But what I say about Gaia, applies to Eden too. So Eden is the victorious arrangement. Our true nature is still connected to Eden. Eden is the way to understand us.

CREATIONISM
The deductions on these pages and in my two books are based on the theory of evolution. What is God created the living beings without evolution?
It makes sense to guess that God created well functioning thoroughly thought of beings whose parts fit well together and support each other, like makes sense from the practical point of view. For such beings all of these results apply.

SURVIVING IN THE END
I have been thinking of how to help the seriously ill and those near death. My belief is that a right kind of healthy attitude to living, one according to most beautiful feelings, and one's relationship to God are the things which can help.
Attached is a list of the things that I consider parts of the healthiest most natural way to live and/or attitude to life, for the seriously ill. The healthy one ought to add sports and well motivating work to the list.
I hope that my point of view helps the suffering ones!

FEELINGS ARE PRODUCTS OF THE NATURAL EVOLUTION

We are products of the natural evolution. Our needs help us to stay fit and our feelings help us to answer our needs.
Our functioning is largely based on social things. We are pack animals. That's why we feel strongly about social things: they affect a lot our chances in life.
We are also adabted to a certain kind of living environment: to the nature. Just such environment makes us function best. That's why we feel strongly about the nature and the weather.
We are also adabted to certain kind of ways of living and to a certain kind of functioning of the human groups that we belong to. So we feel strongly about questions which have to do with the ways of doing things: do those cause us enjoyment or hurt us?

LOVE
When I say "love", I mean health and full functioning with all the needs answered from the point of view of life. Answering needs makes the whole function well: that's why needs exist, that's what is meant by needs. Love is a charachteristic of a completely healthy system.

Really healthy individual's way to see the world
The amount in which we have reached Gaia determines what life is like to us and in what kind of shape we are and so what life feels like to us. What we healthily love and admire as beautiful are the healthy pieces of Gaia because we love the things which we need and if we do not yet have them, they appear beautiful in our eyes.

So a very healthy individual would observe correctly what to love and what to admire as beautiful and so her understanding would correspond to the structure of the world, the world really consist of health: of love and beauty. A really healthy individual with a good uncerstanding, one of a very loving kind, happy and moral.
Isn't this what Christianity talks about and many other religions too? What separates women from men and the moral ones from the evil ones?!

LIFE IS A SONG

It is our nature to see life as a song, as a great panorama of music. That's why we love music: its sound is in our nature, the natural stimuli that we used to hear all the time.
In the natural life in a natural environment a long time ago we were immersed in beauty, much like we can admire the sight of nature even nowadays. But then, a long time ago, it was every side of our life that was so beautiful.
Like with the fracturelessness of nature, beauty is a charachteristic of full health. And since the healthies is the most well functioning, the natural world full of the beauty of full health is the source of miracles in the eyes of us who are used to the fractured world with all the artificialities. The untouched human nature is so well functioning in every respect that it looks miraculous in our eyes. So it is also with our perception of life as a song: it is natural perception about the essentails of human life, about the well funcrtioning and healthy and healthily beautiful in our lives. Whenever we use a machine and it makes a KRAAH sound, we know that we have made something wrong. It is the same with humans. And when our senses sing, we know that we have done everything right!

I do this for You all!
All humans do everything for the human kind, for the living kind. Realism, idealism, greed, unselfishness, love, hate,... If You look deeply into it, you always see next to the deed a burning certainty of the importance of those things to the fate of the human kind. That is the ultimate reason why we do everything that we do!

Being pushed around in the world, I turn inwards to see my own instructions of usage: my heart and soul, my true instinctual understanding of life and the world. So the quest for strenght in wordly matters increases my religious conviction and my wish to live according to God's voice in me. 

My heart's wishes are equal to following the voice of my soul. That is also what makes me completely healthy: strong and wise, so worldly matters cannot scare me away from the road of what God intended our lives to be like - no: even they make me cling ever more tightly to the right road, to the wishes of my soul and heart!

THE END PARADISE...

Final Paradise
A Theory of the Healthy World

PRELUDE: "AN UFO STORY"

I know that this is a whole bunch of new ideas. I have tried to make them as simple as possible, so please do not get too much surprised when from old well known starting points we arrive at something completely new.
Please don't be deceived into thinking that there was an error somewhere along the way: these are thoroughly thought of things and I am an unusually clear headed person. 

Meet an UFO

In the astrophysics laboratory of X there are the collected results of interviews of an UFO. This probram has been made based on those intellectual discussions, so that you too could feel what it feels like to meet an UFO.

Is there life on Earth?
- Not in its ordinary form, but it is true that certain charachteristics of the organisms on Earth interest the inquiring mind.

Is there life on other planets?
- Certainly yes, even though not at all in every place and not always of the same kind.

How would you define life?
- An organism which is intengrately part of a bigger planetary organism system which has the task of protecting those organisms and which brings the meaningfulness in their lives in addition to the living requirements of the organisms.

How would you describe the organisms found on Earth? Us?
- Your species used to be a form of life. Now it is broken. It will not survive long. And the catastrophes causing its disappearance will have disastrous consequences for much of the rest of what there is now left of the life on Earth. It will propably take a long time for it to recover.

What is the primary charachteristic of life?
- It is the securing of the future for its kind via allegiancies with others. In other words: universal love.

What is your reaction to the present situation on Earth?
- The human overpopulation and the development of technology before the means to guide it have been fully developed are both dangerous to the organisms on Earth and to the broken whole that they form. Such lack in planning skills must be seen as a serious defect which should be dropped away. At earlier stages of the evolution those who went solely with growing teeth were dropped away by pay their lack of paying attention to the other sides of life. Now the whole is in danger. Those who started going ashtray should have been killed right away. Love does not mean losing compassion to those who are not present here or to the future generations to come. So life on Earth is broken since it did not prevent this and it did not repair the planning skills of those who lacked foresight.

Shouldn't You the healthy ones the cure us?
- Yes. That is what I am here for.

You alone? Is one enough?
- If you do not listen to one, your reason listens to no-one and so you all deserve to die away, leaving a healthier and happier world.

How are you going to cure us?
- I talk to you about the basics of life, about the need to secure the future, about the interdependence of all life, of your dependence of the nature environment and not on tools,... About the need to think holistically and to feel: to be a fully functioning individual and a fully functioning group.

Think, if you would meet someone from the future, from an age when all or at least most of the present day problems were already solved. Maybe then you could understand what hese thoughts are about. 
But the UFO example goes too far: that is not the level of generality of these thoughts here: These are human thoughts which apply also to the possible UFOs but that is different from UFO thoughts about humans. These thoughts here are based on my experience of life and on the ordinary things that are taught to all in schools all over the world: that humans too are animals and that we originally lived in a much closer contact with the nature and that we too are products of the evolution. 

(But I have thought these thoughts silently on my own, since no-one in my social environment has ever been interested in them at all. I have discussed intellectually about other subjects that have interested my environment, so my thoughts here reflect some academical education too. But in a sense they come from nowhere, they come from living in a culture which values holistic objectivity almost more than anything else.)

READ THIS BEFORE YOU START READING THIS BOOK

The thoughts in this book is based on the thoughts in my two previous books so essentially that I wish to repeat here some of what was written in them: 

1)	My first book explains how moral is beneficial for the selfish ones and goes through some advice in how to develop in holistic objectivity. The most beneficial alternative is perfect moral in the following sense:
a)	Human values help to answer needs which in turn safeguards the ground for health, for full functioning in any task i.e. working ability.
b)	Justice gives people and systems feebback according to what they do and makes it so possible to optimize the whole toward greatest benefit for all and so for you too.
c)	Holistic objectivity makes it possible to guide the systems.
d)	Carrying responsibility about what one does makes one’s actions correlate with their results.
e)	Honesty makes it possible to guide the system based on a correct picture of how things are.
So perfect moral in this sense is the optimized arrangement for any kind of system.
For a more thorough treatment of the subject, including calculations about possible problems: all kinds of  crimes etc, see my book Power Politics Leads To Excellent Moral.

2)	My second book is called Hard Rationality of Feelings and Instincts. It explains in the light of the theory of evolution how modern work capacity is based on healthy natural ways of living according to feelings and instincts while having a holistic picture of life and of the world at large. Its basic theme is:  Feelings help to answer to needs which in turn safeguard the ground for human functioning, upon which also modern work is based on fully. 
If you get interested in the subject, please see my book!

For a more thorough treatment of these subjects please refer to the book in question! These things are true, they are just hard to believe in without getting to know them first…

PART I: 
 THE HEALTHY WORLD WILL WIN IN EVOLUTION

In evolution's competition, every time that there is a new feature, which gives competition advantage and replaces some old feature(s?), it does not remove the usefulness of the old good features. So the winning arrangement is the new good side together with the old good sides.
The use of technology is a new winning strategy. It together with the old winning strategies, i.e. togetrher with thoroughly healthy and natural ways of living, is the winning strategy.

As evolution proceeds, the new winning strategies get developed. One example of that is the development of technology.
In the best end result there are the fully developed new strategy/feature and the old good strategies/features in harmony and cooperation forming one whole. So the best end result in what comes to competition ability in the today's world situation would be fully developed technology together with the healthy biosphere.

Making good win

Good means here happy life: healthy happy life for all fairly. So it means safeguarding the paradise of a healthy world and rebuiding it if it has been lost, like is nowadays the case.

GOOD OUGHT TO WIN OVER EVIL

Good ought to win over evil in a strongest one wins competition, like the evolution was. To see this clearly, let s go through the good tough sides of moral step by step:

Human values bring a stronger force than no or too little human values.
Objective thinking with a holistic view brings a better arranged group than lesser quality thinking or no objectivity at all.
Honesty makes it possible to see how things are and so it is more benefical than lies as a practise in a society.
Justice gets the society arranged for the common good and is so useful while unjustices fail to support good things and support harmful things instead. So unjustice is a much less benefical practise in a society or group than justice.
Carrying responsibility helps to get at least the main things well, so it is more benefical than irresponsibility.
So good moral would win in a strongest one wins competition.

MORAL IS THE MOST BENEFICAL OPTION!
Lots of allies -> the force of masses
No conflicts in the large scale -> no forces spent needlessly to war etc.
Doing things according to their nature = according to how they really function
Correct feedback optimizes and corrects errors and weak points away

Use all of your understanding in the largest scale! Remember the value of cooperation, in other words of peace and prosperity and safety forever.

Natural rationality in the major goals in life, in the workings of the society and the world at large:
the optimised arrangement produced by the evolution:
* compassion -> human values -> health,
* justice -> each thing treated according to what it produces -> health of practises in this respect,
* carrying responsibility of the things that one affects -> guidability,
* sincerety in communication -> a correct picture of how things are -> guidability,
* holistic objectivity -> things treated according to their role in the world;
in other words: excellent moral is the optimised choise.

Since all do not see this themselves, there may still be some doubt left, So I will go through the problems and classify them according to the above principles and other cost-benefit analysis factors that they break against:

How to make the calculations in an easier way:  count on healthy (=fully functioning) and harmony (you can see it is a vector sum) in everything!

Here are the dangers feared and after each of them explanations why moral is a better choise than them.

Robbery, criminals, unjustice of every kind (= a fractured whole):
* give feedback to those who cause each thing (health), so you can optimize toward better (health)
* breaking (= a fractured whole) versus cultivating (health)

Slavery and other kinds of forcing (= a fractured whole):
* the human goals in life and the human needs are connected (health) + answering the human needs and the working condition of the human are connected (health)
* too much forcing (= a fractured whole) forces one to a rebellion, to extreme means, so keeping the people under control is the harder and the more unprofitable, the more artifical, unhuman and unfair the arrangements of the rulers are (= a fractured whole)

Drugs, hypnozis, torture etc. (= a fractured whole):
* less individual guidance (= a fractured whole)
* typically such means would be used against the reasoning of the individual (= a fractured whole), against the individual 1⁄2s needs (= a fractured whole) and so against work efficiency and work endurance  1⁄2 such doesn't make sense
* also if such means are used to put a wrong class of persons into power (= a fractured whole), against justice (= a fractured whole), that means against reasoning (= a fractured whole) and is harmful to the whole and to the parts;
it also centeres the lives into wrong questions (= a fractured whole) compared to the efficiency, guidability and work endurancy point of view (health)

Fakes, lies, false propaganda, ignorancy, mistaken beliefs (= a fractured whole):
* such cause that one's actions do not correlate (= a fractured whole) well enough with the reality (health), such creates malfunctioning (= a fractured whole) in those respects
* the natural goals of human life make sense and fit together with the happiness of others too (health), so one should be able to live with the whole group in a good functioning order (health), that would give the strongest group (health)

Manipulation by the social instincts, by religion etc. (= a fractured whole):
* manipulation by the strongest instincts of humans is like manipulation by hunger,
it causes a situation where the manipulated person is in a wrong role (= a fractured whole) in the society, the benefit of their work and ways going to different hand than which created the benefit and so the system supports some malfunction (= a fractured whole) instead of the healthy life, prosperity and good of the nation (health)

Other kinds of manipulation (= a fractured whole):
* manipulation means often that things are used to wrong purposes,
some shortsighted technically thinking parasite like persons benefiting instead of those building the society, like farmers for example producing food (health)

Mutations (= a fractured whole):
* mutations usually create non-functioning (= a fractured whole) individuals which die very young (= a fractured whole)
* somehow benefical mutations or gene manipulation would bring new qualities which are not fitted well together to the whole (= a fractured whole), so they do not support the life of the organism and the organism isn 1⁄2t strong enough to support them (= a fractured whole), much less of being adabted to the larger environment (health)

Cool calculating behaviour (= a fractured whole):
* it is important to measure sizes correctly (health)
* humans have feelings in order to help in understanding things (health),
not using feelings as a way to guide one 1⁄2s behaviour (= a fractured whole) makes one dangerous to one 1⁄2s social environment (= a fractured whole):
a person who even alone destrous much of the society (= a fractured whole)

Selfishness (= a fractured whole):
* humans are pack animals (health), the group supports the functioning of the individual and social life is emotionally rewarding (health)
* cooperation (health) creates the force of masses, so moral is benefical: moral means cooperating for the good of all (health)

Commercial things:
* meeting human needs sells best (health)

Supercomputers, computer networks etc.:
* rationality (health) and optimizing
* the value of human ways (health) from the efficiency point of view
* feelings of humans connect to their needs (health) which in turn connect to their actions and well-functioning (health)
* differencies in the type of understanding of humans and computers: the natural understanding of humans about human functioning (health)

Technology at large, control devices etc.:
* control to only a few persons (= a fractured whole) of a certain kind versus
a correctable system (health) with the thinking ability of all used thoroughly (health) in making the arrangements of the society (health)
* real support (health) leads to safety (health), guidability (health), cooperation (health), higher intelligence of the system (health), better endurance (health), more optimized toward efficiency

Artifical living conditions and malfunctions created by them (= a fractured whole):
* the human nature s still the same, one created by the natural evolution: human needs and ways of functioning (health)
* the human being is an optimized whole: the different parts support the functioning of each other and the whole (health)  1⁄2 if one tries new combinations (= a fractured whole), they typically don 1⁄2t produce good functioning since humans are very complicatedly structured (= a fractured whole)

War, armies, militaristic ways (= a fractured whole):
* the enermous harm caused by war versus the benefits of peace and cooperation
* human values (health) are connected to well-functioning of the soldiers and civilians
* upbringing of the next generation needs peaceful circumstances and human values (healthy whole)
* a home to defend (health)
* making sense correlates with profitability, moral and cooperation
* guiding of actions (health) and correctability (health)
* alternative means (health) and optimizing
* ground for future life: fair enough, peace (health)

Short term view at the expanse (= a fractured whole) of a long term view (health):
* our thinking and our instincts demand us to take care of the future, so they do not support our actions if we do not care for the long term success. Such a deficiency in planning and motivation is a serious short term drawback.

A partial view at the expanse (= a fractured whole) of a holistic view (health):
* the first point in thinking is to get at least the main points right. That is possible only via using a holsitic view. So one using a partial view lacks the guidance of true objectivity.

I hope that You understand that these results aren't presupposing that you work for the good of some group. They are all right also if your are purely selfish, care purely for yourself alone, since then also it matters to you in which kind of environment you live and what kind of relationship you have to your environment. You are a part of the world and the world's influence on your life is a part of your fate. So it matters to optimise these things towards your greatest survival & well-being, instead of having arbitrary goals like "I want to be nasty toward my big sister". This optimising is what leads to choosing the strongest allegiancy together with healthy ways of living, i.e. good moral and natural ways of living. The allegiancies are wisest to form according to the society agreement type of thinking: you will get the results of society agreenmet like thinking: you get the results of what you cultivate, likewise do the others. Remember that you are special only to yourself, not to the others who similarly care mostly about their own benefit. And remember that moral in the sense that I mean it is different from what your mother maybe taught to you.

(Repeating:
Natural rationality in the major goals in life, in the workings of the society and the world at large:
the optimised arrangement produced by the evolution:
* compassion -> human values -> health -> able workers,
* justice -> each thing treated according to what it produces -> health of practises in this respect,
* carrying responsibility of the things that one affects -> guidability,
* sincerety in communication -> a correct picture of how things are -> guidability,
* holistic objectivity -> things treated according to their role in the world;)
in other words: excellent moral is the optimised choise in how to arrange one's own group and consequently also one's own behaviour - also for the purely selfish individual!

SELFISNESS VERSUS MALICIOUSNESS

Selfishness means wanting things well for oneself and not caring much about other things.

It fits well together with my view here.

Wanting things poorly for others I term maliciousness. It is different from selfishness and even in contradiction with selfishness, like one can see if one uses a holistic view of the world. 

So maliciousness doesn't fit together with my view: you have to give up maliciousness if you want to live in a paradise. The reclutancy of people to this I see as the major obstacle on our way to the final paradise.

Self-defence is arranged in other ways than by maliciousness, for example by fair play.

Huge Systems, 
Pure Power Play and
the Fate of the Human Kind:
THE HEALTHY WORLD WINS!

Survival strategy:
Either: Be the winners
Or: Get the winners to be on your own side
If you choose a winning strategy, you are likely to achieve the latter if not even the former!

In short:
Biggest allegiancy gives you the strongest force, so ally world wide, in a way that is safe to you. This allegiancy is in your nature: universal love.

And health is the strongest arrangement produced by the evolution's competition, so choose the cultivation and safeguarding of good health as your competition strategy. 

(The concept of health can be generalised to situations including the artificialities in the world. It gives you the optimised arrangement of the whole.)

With the existence of technology
the word "healthy" gets a new 
generalised meaning: 
“a well arranged
and fully functioning system”. 

In what comes to the living beings this is the same as the old definition of health as natural fully functioning, as a product of evolution. In what comes to the technology, it means that the same principles that the nature found useful are useful also in optimising the technology and the large systems consisting of both technology and of humans - it means that there is no better option. But if there would be a some still better arrangement, we would adobt it of course... That is healthy.

THE HEALTHY WORLD IS 
MILITARILY THE BEST OPTION

MORAL
Human values take care that the parts of the biological systems stay in good health, so it is an important thing in evolution s competition and in God s plan. Like I mentioned already, our feelings are connected to keeping us healthy. So human values help to give room to our feelings.

Objective thinking, honesty and justice take care that each thing is treated acoording to what it is like which is very important to the functioning of the system. They make it possible to put each part to its best place in the system. Those with good sides from which others cab kearn, get a good position for the benefit of all. And those with bad sides, especially irresponsibility, get punished to a poor position so that their harmful qualities get discouraged. This means having very many partial hierargies: one for each subject, skill, thing to decide, piece of knowledge,  Always the ones who understand best and carry responsibility about the consequences are in a deciding role.

In doing things intentionally the main point is to get the main things right. That means that the biggest matters of the largest scale and of the long run are especially important. Likewise are all questions of life and death important. Here one must remember that 100 000 lives is much much more importat than just one life and that the number of people in the human kind is 6 000 000 000 lives which is about 10 000 000 000 lives which is another 100 000 times the 100 000 lives and so even an much much bigger question than the huge question of 100 000 lives. So the large scale things affect enermously more than the small scale things. Thew large scale consists of the small scale, of its added effect. Our feelings should go with the large scale!

PUNISHMENTS AND MORAL

In my opinion the world is full of evil people. Trying to punish them creates a so big counterforce that it is imposiible in practise. So trying to punish all evil just makes no sense at all. Instead one should find other methods of guiding the world toward better.

Usually it is evil people who have a negative idea of moral: their moral is impossibly and uncomfortable to follow in practise. So people in their social environment tend to get angry at moral people, as if the moral ones were the ones forcing them and not the evil ones. But the moral people know how to live happily and be easily moral, their moral is pleasant and enrichens life instead of robbing anything - it is like a gift given to them and to others. So they have surely not deserved the attacks of the evil ones. It is the way of evil ones to rely on brute force in guiding people in their environment, regardless of its consequences, so just they are the ones whose demands make people so angry that they feel forced to attack.

A REBELLION IN HELL

Suppose that you were in hell and wanted to get out of there but there is no way: just the hell everywhere. The only way to get out of the hell would be to change the hell to a livable place but that seems quite impossible, things being as they are.

In hell there is fighting all over the place. So you can easily find people eager for power since power gives you protection, wealth and might over the others. Suppose that you knew about optimising the basics of what I know.
Then you could start with a group eager for power and success and optimise it toward best success:

Those of the group who damage the group would be strictly punished. Those who benefit the group would be rewarded.
The relationships of the group to others would be decided by the leaders only. Those who do not follow orders and cause unneeded conflicts would be strictly punished, since the group loses its strength in conflicts while at peacetime it can develop in strength via a better health.
It is beneficial for the group to ally with large powers, so it will do so - maybe even with God too. Wjatever it is that brings the most force, must be used fully.

Optimising this way one gets a group which is used to justice and peace and which one can optimise further toward a better survival. Respecting human values keeps the persons in the group healthy and makes so the group stronger. Holistic objective thinking, honesty in communication and demanding responsibility about all the consequences of one's actions create a system, group, which can guide its actions in the most intelligent and wise way according to each situation.

Optimising this way you will get the most optimised group, in other words: the strongest possible one: which is a moral paradise movement! since the above guidelines add to a perfect moral of the kind that evolution or God planned us for, and which so is the road to which our feelings and instincts guide us: the paradise like direction.
One could of course start with a paradise movement, moral people etc. if such are available - or with a combination of all these kinds of beings.

MORAL AND THE RIGHT FOR DEFENCE

First of all I would like to remark that my idea of what moral is includes healthy self-defence. So if someone hits you you have the right to hit them back but not any worse than what their crime is. So moral this way isn't as naive and defenceless as non-violence. 
Even though I have heard one version of Gandhi's nonviolence principle (it was in a book that I was reading a while ago) being the noviolence, the positivity of love. That means nonviolence, love when watched from the holistic point of view and not the bearing of all wrong just in order to follow the rule of nonviolence untill everything is conquered by others by the force of arms. Holistic nonviolence that I support here means trying to achieve the best possible state for the whole, i.e. it means good moral. So it is not the tools that matter, it is the end result, which should be good. But of course tools create situations and practices which you have to take into asccount in estimating the thus gained end result: if you break against the good of others, they are allowed to break similarlöy a fair amount against yours, so it is easier to keep things nice if one uses less violence, because violence often brings wrongdoings with it: hot feelings and too cool calculating minds instead of healthy sociality.
So if you get hit by others, try to cure the situation, whether you do it by the force of arms or by talking or by any other means, work sincerely for the good of the whole. One side of that is having the good ones in power. So if you behave morally, you should take care that you get the dominant role. That is self-defence with a good moral and it is good for the future too, good for you and good for others since it is good to have the moral ones in power since they arrange things for the common good.

In fact my main goal in writing has been to prove the following, so I will add the text here even if it does not fit well or is too cynical:

Starting from Sunzi's The Art Of War I can prove that a global paradise is the best option:
Sunzi says in the point about rolling stones that it is the nature of stones that "on a level ground they remain still but on a slope they move". Similarly the wise commander uses his men: it is the nature of the men that when they are truly motivated they act with force and when they are not motivated they do not act at all. The profoundnes of this principle is illustrated by the use of it in the major (i.e. its dimension is huge) point in the beginning of the Sunzi's book: "The people must agree with the goals of the government."
If we now take a look at the nature of the men in the light of our present day scientifical understanding of the world, we notice that the charachteristics of the men stem from the time when humans were still a part of the nature, of the healthy natural world. (You can compare this to the old Chinese wisdom about the Tao.) It is the nature of healthy wholes that they try to cure themselves when wounded, so the men as parts of the world have as their motivational ground the making of the group as strong and flourishing as possible without it costing overly much to them.  All the natural motivational factors of the men together with the aim for strenght and safety guide them toward best health and that means living as a healthy whole as a part of the healthy world. That is the safest and strongest choise which is also supported by our nature, it is a paradise upon Earth and the best ultimate goal for a military commander to choose. What kind of choises in what comes to the course of action and values to take that entails and why, I have discussed in my free book Power Politics Leads To Excellent Moral which is available in the internet at www.createspace.com/.

Natural rationality in the major goals in life, in the workings of the society and the world at large:
the optimised arrangement produced by the evolution:
* compassion -> human values -> health,
* justice -> each thing treated according to what it produces -> health of practises in this respect,
* carrying responsibility of the things that one affects -> guidability,
* sincerety in communication -> a correct picture of how things are -> guidability,
* holistic objectivity -> things treated according to their role in the world;
in other words: excellent moral is the optimised choise.

“A paradise… – Does that mean a beautiful maiden on a meadow?”
How is it possible?!
So let us take a young happy and healthy naturally beautiful (beauty tells of well functioning - see my other book about the hard rationality of feelings) young maiden on a flowery meadow as an example of a paradise. You may ask: how is this a militartily strong way to arrange things? I must refer to my usual example of a wooden leg working less well than a real alive leg. Also stiff unreactive parts of the body and mind, of whatever alive thing, work less well than those parts as healthily working and reactive. So the young maiden is an example of healthy well functioning and since she has a rewarding social life too, she is a good social example to others about those healthy ways to live. The world being huge and complex, it does not matter whether you were given a strong manly structure or a "weak" female structure if you just can serve as a model of the best kind of way to live to others, since there are so very many of the others anyway. And the maiden isn't stiff like the men - she is alive and has an excellent understanding about life and about the world - see my second book. Well, this is a feministic perspective but should be militarily correct.
A remark: a fine instrument seldom looks sturdy but can be extremely valuable in practise.

What you ought to do if you were a beautiful young butterfly on a meadow and knew that the world was conquered by giants who build ever larger works of their own, making the world so uninhabitable to a large part? You ought to cure the situation but being small and wise you could not build any competitive structures. Instead you would have to rely on other means: on social communication, on being a healthy example of a good healthy way to live. But if even the social skills of the giants were damaged, you would have to rely on being beautiful, a part of the nature that they would remember and treasure close to their heart and so learn from you. So you would have to fly beautifully, nearing a flower completely thrown to the flow of your deepest heart-felt emotions, the letting go, flying freely, nearing the next temptation etc. So beautiful, so healthy, so universal, such an enermous cure: just follow your own nature fully, it tells you what to do and what to not to do in the wolrd! And sure: butterflies are like that! What an enermous emotional kind of beauty they are: what a wisdom of life they have!

In social relationships she valued friendship instead of military practise like the other kids did. She knew that the healthiest soldier was the most capable and that the biggest healthy group the strongest, so she valued everything that could give her full health in every respect and was prepared to commit herself to achieve the best kind of allegiancies: real friendship. Toward the healthy we feel love, love is what gives us strenght, so it is also militarily the best option. There is no difference between the search for happiness and the fight for survival, as long as one does not resort to artificial means like drugs and negligience, lying so to oneself in one’s search for happiness. And moral and happiness connected via the need to do meaningful things in one’s life, to gain social position, to protect the things that give us good life, to protect the future too. Living in social contact with the rest of the living world you can best form allegiancies and in other words care for their well-being via compassion and they will in turn protect you since you are useful to them, to their happiness and well-being, to the state of the large things in the world that affect their lives enermously.

Maybe you could understand this better if you thought about each human relationship as a fighting team on life's sea. That is what it really is!

The unequality in human relationships ought to be taken into account in the following way: you get what you buy for a certain price only - this is the healthiest way to arrange things, giving the strongest allegiancy. If you want to buy loyalty, a quarantee that the other one will not hurt you without a really good reason, you have to pay the price by being loyal yourself that amount - or by being safe enough for the other one and exchanging the rest, upon the agreement of the other one, to some other good side of yours that the other one lacks, like teaching the other one some great skill that is useful in living and that the other one really wants to learn. The other one needs to know your lack of loyalty, if the human relationship is one-sided. Otherwise it is just like an attack against the human nature, against the natural society agreement, which says that you cooperate for the goals that you have in common and are in a clearly seen way on different islands otherwise. Emphaty together with other social skills ought to make this natural society agreement work naturally and with least danger, producing the very strongest allegiancy for all parties without endangering the ground for life, like less instinctual arrangements may do.
The modern societies groups just about all to many beneficial allegiancies, so it makes things appear as if you were allying with all. But in questions other than running the society, you are often at different islands of the society agreement: you upkeep different things. On the other hand many useful allegiancies abroad get an extra burden of you all not belonging to the same nations. Communication can solve lots of problems, but one should remember that some people are evil: you just have to defend your group strongly!

A TRUTH WHICH IS SO VERY OLD
THAT IT IS IN THE VERY NATURE 
OF THINGS AND OF THE WORLD

A HUMAN BEING FORMS AN UNIFIED WHOLE WITH ONE'S LIVING ENVIRONMENT.
"All things are bound together. All things connect. What happens to the Earth, happens to the children of the Earth. Man has not woven the web of life. He is but one thread of it. Whatever he does to the web, he does to himself." said the indian chief Seattle.
Whatever we do, want to do, feel motivated toward, is meaningful in just the larger picture of life, of the lives of us all, of the world at large.

The healthier the pieces of our natural living environment (including the society) are and the better they are at their right places, the better we function, the happier we are.
The amount in which we have reached the Gaia paradise, determines what life is like to us and in what kind of shape we are and so what life feels like to us.

We are by our nature parts of the whole world. So we are healthy just when we are interconnected healthily and naturally with the rest of the world. If we are treated as separate, that connection gets broken and consequently we are broken in what comes those our interconnected sides and so our functioning suffers a lot. This can be seen in how the state of the world and the state of the society etc. affect our own chances in life and our feelings and our motivation, our picture of the future. It can also affect in more subtle ways of which we are not necessarily aware of. 

Follow your heart's voice in the tough world!

Your nature was created by the evolution to guide you toward the best survival. Your feelings and instincts guide you toward that best fitness by helping to answer your needs which in turn safeguards your health: your overal fitness needed for any task at hand. So the demands of modern work efficiency agree with your wish to live your life fully according to feelings.
Living fully according to feelings does not mean lying to yourself. Thinking must form a holistic view of what the situation is like. Only after that will you be guided correctly by your feelings!
This explains for example how good (=allying as much as possible, as wisely as possible) can be better in a fight than evil (=having the additional goal of causing needless damage): realism demands that the good too have to fight, otherwise they lose all power to the evil ones who bother to fight. It is used to be a part of the generally accepted moral that one ought to fight to defend good and oppose evil, but wrong kind of pacifism has removed this part of moral, making so the power dynamics of the world go all wrong. All the usual kind of motivational factors are for a happy kind of allowing non-religious moral, nothing for evil, IF healthy self-defence is allowed and encouraged as a part of moral. Realism says that we have to defend ourselves. One should not group moral with pacifism, not with the refusal to defend oneself, not with the giving of power away to the (evil) ones who do not care! The destructuveness of modern weapons means just that they should be used with great care since they cause great losses. All the available means should be used in guiding the use of weapons rationally TO the defence of good! There isn't any new factor in the world because of the existence of nuclear bombs etc.: just the dimensions have changed. Even at earlier times countries were afraid of too large destruction and figured out treaties to solve problems before arriving at such. So there is no need for changed policies: taking all the factors and their dimensions into account the old rules, like aiming at justice, should be all right! No need to replace them, for example true justice and carrying responsibility about one's actions, by pacifism by any means.
Universal love, as I see it, does not mean pacifism by any means, without any limit i.e. without regard for its costs to human (& other) lives. It simply means that you care for all and try to affect things toward better via your greatest ability, for example while understanding that you just have to carry responsibility about all your actions: you cannot help devil like people out of kindness - that would be torture-orientedness in practise when watched from the point of view of their victims AND of the world at large, of the fates of us all!

What Gaia has to offer:
What is the use for an army from:
∑ An increased ability of its members?
∑ A better organisation of the whole?
∑ A better motivation?
∑ A better acceptability of its actions in the world at large?
∑ A real apprexiation of the rationality of its decisions from both the outsiders and insiders?
∑ An increased understanding and responsible action of its members?
This is what my thoughts: the health, excellent moral, the so called soft values and women can give to the army.

A question: 
What to do when hard reality (the existence of all kinds of evil, wars, lack of moral, cool calculating behaviour with a complete disregard for feelings and the good of others, etc.) meets the soft values (moral, feelings, religion, the values needed in upbringing children, etc.) ?
Then it is a matter of who is the strongest. That means that one must increase one's own strength via health, and the strength of one's group(s) via their health and the number of one's allies via as many allegiancies as possible. So the answers given by the soft values apply, but one must be keen on noticing who is on one's own side and who not, so social skills matter a lot. Between the groups there is a "war" of some kind, it depends on the groups how much figting there will be. A society agreement like picture of the situation would help one to see how much one can trust each party and how one so can form the maximum, best amount of allegiancies. For example one can form rules of behaviour inside the allegiancies that take care that people behave all right even if they are not themselves moral. But defence orientedness is needed. Inside a big group tha often happens via specialization while individual evil ones try to fight on all fronts at the same time. The same happens when the level of moral in a group is low: the individuals get forced to a fight against each other and so the remaining part of their forces is smaller, producing less strenght and a lower standard of living.
How to go about this fight in practise then? You might agree with Sunzi who says that "The victory giving battle is like a stone smashing to an egg." But just take care that you are not so the egg and the stone the enemy, i.e. generalise enough in order to see the true consequences of your actions: if you attack women and children thus making the war more disastrous than what it used to be like, the others will do the same to you and so you have lost safety instead of gaining. The point is to not to break any rules of the society agreement but to fight with excellent moral, opposing only evil things and things which lead to evil if they are allowed (like pacifism to the extreme of allowing all evil), thus you see the targets of aggression and the things to defend and the motivation behind your actions and those of others. What is needed after that is strenght, intelligence, knowledge and skill. That you do not gain by attacking the innocent, you gain it by fighting with your true enemies. A good way to understand the ground for things is to use the islands of the society agreement like picture of the world: all things being created and supported by certain factors, persons and/or groups: just oppose or support each kind of island's supporters. Thus you can build anything and safeguard things valuable to you, while seeing in which way to prevent the disastrous things.

One can optimise wholes in practise a charachteristic by charachteristic: if they are very different, they are independent, and if they are very similar, one can optimise them the same way. So choose from the following what health is (always the first option in the list):
strong or weak,
sensitive and intelligent or unsensitive and idiotic,
allies witha huge group or in conflict with a huge group,
follows one's feelings i.e. follows one's own instructions of usage or does not follow feelings i.e. does not follow one's own instructions of usage,
allies to build the strongest group possible to the extend that is prepared to sacrifice one's own life to protect it or does not care to invest in the strenght of the group,
social and so able to take the most out of encounters or unsocial and not able to get anything much from encounters,
follows rationality or does not follow rationality,
thinks of the whole or not.

You may ask: how can one then ally if one is a predator? 
For this see the answer in my own Gaia theory in my Gaia pages. One way to ally is to ally with the group instead of with its individuals: to eat away only the ill ones in order to increase the health of the population and to live healthily so as to by one's example support healthy ways of living in the society. One can also ally on the parts that one is not in conflict with anyone, like for example a murderer who is against rape does...

In theory it goes like this: suppose that you meet a mean guy or a group of mean guys and find yourself threatened by them, then you should look for someone higher in the hierargy than what they are or for some more intelligent mean guy who is interested in one's own benefit. Then you could use these efficiency grounds of mine to speak for justice, human values and responsible behaviour. If you find someone who really trusts objective estimates of things, that MIGHT solve your problem...

So if soft values really are a wiser choise, how do they exactly win over the hard values? In my opinion one needs the hard values too: the safeguarding of good. But the point is that the soft values, especially good moral, are the rules in how to arrange the whole and not the hard values, especially not evil as a rule. Moral used to be a matter of defending good. In that sense moral is still the correct choise. But moral which is almost equated with pacifism suits inside a group of allies, not among all.

So maybe you believe that health of all the wholes that you belong to, is the best alternative to you. But what about having enemies? Make their moral a condition for their health, i.e. demand health of their relationship to the whole world as a prequisite for their own health. Then they cannot use the fact that they are to a large extend healthy themselves unhealthily in what comes to the rest of the world. In other words: do not give the evil ones too much room to live and to ruin your life, the lives of us all. A happy moral way to live builds a better world for all of us, so it is good to let it rule, even if you are not all that moral yourself - yet!

Then why is the paradise here a global one and not for your own group only? You are a part of the world, so your relationship to the rest of the world matters a lot. If you are for a paradise for all, you obviously ally with the motivation of the enemies too, even if their own side isn't able to ally that much... But what matters especially, is that you should follow the most beneficial guidelines in the world at large in order to benefit from them, in order to win as much as possible in the future and to lose as little as possible in the future. If you do not follow justice in the world at large, your own side may degenerate since you do not always support the best alternatives. If you do not allow human values for those who aim at the global paradise, you lose allies. But of course you must demand that the enemies must be moral enough before you can support them. Anyway, the level of the whole is important and just in that ( and in other things too) it is important to follow the best choise, the moral paradise movement. Otherwise people would copy the strategy that they considert the most intelligent and the leader's too "selfish looking" choises would be repeated in their own group which would weaken the group.

SELF-RELIANCE IS A NEEDED SAFETY PRECAUTION FOR THE FUNCTIONING OF THE SYSTEM
In order to arrange the whole well, each part has to be treated according to what it is like. This is a fact well understood in market economy, justice, honesty and holistic objectivity. But what it demands in practise is that all the parts of the system are enough self-reliant in answerig their basic needs, so that they cannot be pushed about and robbed arbitrarily because someone else controls the answering of their basic needs. Instead each part has to gain its place in the system by its own virtues only (and lose position fairly because of its faults).

HONESTY AND HAVING ENEMIES

Moral demands honesty toward the healthy parts of the natural world. Those healthy parts form a whole whose functioning is beneficial to you and to your group.
If your enemy is just malicious and overaggressive compared to what is fair, refuse to communicate with that enemy at all. Keep your mouth shut. Since if you would lie, that would be like pretending to be a part of the same group. It either is of no use or then works only for the part that you are taken as a group member when you in fact are an enemy. Not recognising who allies with whom and who supports what, sets the whole ashtray, everything to more or less wrong role in the whole, so it is one of the crimes that OUGHT to be most opposed, since it takes the ground away from the system: supporing parasites instead of farmers etc. But of course lying is widely spread and kind of accepted as a major part of human to human interactions. One cannot remove it just like that. One still could avoid lying in the major matters of the world, say in questions of life and death and in more important matters. That means among other things that one should value honesty in leaders. I guess that that works only after people have learned to see their enemies as partly healthy and as partly "the shadows that one oneself casts" like the chinese classic Tao-Te-Ching says and only partly as things/deeds to fully resist because of being evil/harmful in essence.

DARKER MOTIVATION:

WHAT IF THERE IS DEVIL IN POWER?
Suppose that the worst happened: that the big devil did exist and got to rule the world. Why would we still have hope?
Devil worships evil or then he is power oriented. In the latter case he listens to the optimising of wholes.
In the former case we can conquer the world from him by the force of arms and by the force of optimising.
In any case the healthy world: a global paradise i.e. good would win.

A BAD DREAM
She awoke with a start. Someone had been taking to her, repeating something again and again.She did not know whether it was a dream or something else. She barely remembered what they had said but the basic idea was clear: she was inside a finely build artificial world and the world was broken. It had been finely build for the purpose of living in it, but people had not understood the need to live in such a world, so they had tried to escape, or to oppose the rulers. In any case they had done everything imaginable to oppose and to break the whole system. They had opposed every single thing of worth in it and opposed even their own natures to break it. And they had succeeded. Now she was inside a giant torture machine. Since that is what a giant life sustaning system becomes like when one intentionally breaks it. Her only hope was to repair it. There wqas no special method of repairing. She had to trust in her ordinary everyday communication skills to convince the countless others inside the machine that one ought to stop sabotaging things and repair them instead. It was an ages old problem of creating good moral to where there were nothing to begin with... There was no on-off switch. It was a long road to travel, and her fate depended on her travelling that road all of her life!

Is this our future? If it is one of the possibilities, the we had better prepare ourselves for it!

THE EXTREME POSSIBILITY OF ALL BEING SPIRITS OR ALL LIVING IN A VIRTUAL WORLD ("NO MATERIAL WORLD"):
THINGS STAY THE SAME IN WHAT COMES TO THE BEST OPTION IN HOW TO ARRANGE THINGS.
THE SAME APPLIES IF THERE ARE LOTS OF ARTIFICIALITIES IN THE WORLD.

What if we are spirits or virtual, what if the world doesn't consist of atoms, molecules, we not of cells, what if everything such is just faked, how are things then, what happens to all our deductions about the usefulness of Gaia? 
Things stay the same since we are still some kind of entities, which have the same characteristics as wholes, so the theory about wholes and fractures in wholes stays still valid, and Gaia is the most beneficial option.
(If everything were of spirit and the world at least partly created by our beliefs about it, that could appear to us modern people as a virtual world.)

Also, if whoever would rule a virtual or spirit world, the ruler would need guidability - that means honesty, objectivity with a holistic view and true justice - and well-functioning of the parts and of the systems and subsystems - that means health (since healthy parts function well while broken parts do not function at all) and naturality (since our functioning is based on the natural ways of functioning and on nothing else) which mean at the level of individuals human values.
Putting each part of a system to its correct place and correct role in the whole, so as to get the whole to function as well as possible, means health and naturality of the whole and its parts and structures since that's what their functioning is based on.

It is quite easy to figure out what is the best way to arrange a virtual world for just about any purpose: respecting health of the individuals (human values) and of the systems (including naturality and moral) while having natural hierargy in who can affect what. This should be easy for all to learn and to understand:

NATURAL HIERARGIES
There is a natural hierargy in human societies: the way that is according to real justice, for the good of all. If we get apprexiated for our good sides, they get supported for the good of all, and others can take us as an example for themselves without losing position at all. If we lose position when we do not according to justice deserve a good position, our bad sides, especially irresponsibility, get discouraged. When the one who understands better and carries responsibility is in a deciding position things get done well for the good of all. This is possible by using many many partial hierargies at the same time: one for each subject, skill, thing to decide, piece of knowledge,... Correcting one's own errors is a thing to value and to be demanded from all, especially from those in a deciding position. This creates a natural repair mechanism for the society and is an ideal way to arrange things.
CARRYING RESPONSIBILITY of the whole and using a good picture of the whole with all emphazies and roles of things right, guide the whole toward the good of all. One is not allowed to affect things which one does not carry responsibility over.
There is a saying in Finland: "Honour those who truly deserve respect." (Meaning: even when it is an unorthodox choise, and do not give honour according to custom to those who do not according to justice deserve it).
This is the way that we organize things in my homecountry Finland in North Europe.

Let us suppose that we are all virtual, all the humans, all the animals etc., maybe even theUFO:s adding a flavor of their own to that mixture. Each human is virtualised to one's own virtual world with its own rules, everything run by huge superhypercomputers or however. How does that enrmous huge complex whole work? What would make sense for the individuals to do in such a world? What are the dynamics of that system? 
Each human being is different, so we have to take a look at what we all have in common, take a look at the human nature. All dynamics 9in connection with the living beings is born out of what the living beings are like. So if someone wants power or workers or whatever, they have to count on the human nature. That's what gives the functioning needed for reaching any kind of goals. In that one must remember the value of human values: a healthy one works better than a broken one. Also justice and true objectivity are musts for the buidlders of such systems and for those who want to benefit from their dynamics: treat each part according to what it is like, so you can best benefit from it. Read my book about rational moral! … So it stays valid that Gaia is the best option, the answer to the question of hgow to arrange one's forces best and how to best arrange the rules in the virtuyal worlds. And Gaia for Gaia is the answer to how the individuals and groups could best benefit themselves and their goals in such an enermously complex and seemingly arbitrarily arrangeable world.

Let's take the hypothetical situation where people are just a computer figure colonny living inside a computer so that everything is possible. Then you might think that if someone has something good, one ought to take it and spread it as widely as possible, via artificial arrangements. But that does not work since that makes people copy from all those lower quality people when they want that good thing for themselves too. So the whole deteriorates all the time. That is contrary to the situation of fair play where all get their own good sides and nothing else. Then everybody knows from whom one can learn things that one wants to one's life. This is a better way to reach good life and even a paradise upon the "Earth(?)".

Also if people were just computer programs inside a huge machine brain, it would make sense if the dynamics of the programs would lead them to optimisedf functioning. So our feelings and instincts have to lead toward the best functioning: happiness is the optimised choice.
This is the same reason as why there was a paradise in the beginning of time, and why there will be a final paradise in the future!

SELFISH TO THE EXTREME

In the end, what matters, is what life is like to you yourself, since that affects you the most. What happens to the others is of little significance in itself, but is of course important in giving you the environment that you live in. 
So it matters enormously to be selfish, in a sense that is the only possible rational choise for the individual. But that does not mean carelessness in what comes to treating all the others, more likely it means well planned strategic action in social contacts: sometimes careful and sometimes when there is no need to be careful, even completely careless. A well planned strategic attitude toward others is different from pure maliciousness which is more like a thing based on social feelings than any cool calculating behaviour that would be determined by its beneficiality to yourself. Rather than to act based on maliciousness, anger, agitation, the wish to neglect others or any other negative or positive feeling, one ought to start by examining feelings: what is their role in your life, what are they caused by, why, what do they lead to and is that end result beneficial or unbeneficial to you? For this see my book Hard Rationality of Feelings and Instincts.

Whether God created living beings or they were purely results of the natural evolution, life goes on. The very weak die and the very fit prosper. As the time passes that produces a situation like the evolution, which God and the genetic wisdom in living beings born from the unnumerable many generations of natural evolution must know well. So what we are like has been chosen by the previous circumstances and by God so that it brings us the best fitness for the life in our living environment.
What we are means our whole being, including instincts, feelings and social life as well as thinking and knowledge. All those things in our nature are beneficial for our survival if we just know how to use them right.

One of the strengths that is good to have, is the ability to estimate situations right, in other words good observational skills and real objective intelligence to make the deductions about what one has observed right.
The first point in objectivity is getting the main points right. That is impossible if you have no idea of what the main points are like. You can get that idea only by having a proper view of the whole thing and of its major relationships to other things in the world & of its role in the world. So only holistic thinking is objective thinking. Other more partial forms of objectivity are just fakes and no use to you if you want to find out how things are and what would be best for you.
If you travel with a compass, you will arrive at your destination even if you travel slowly. But if you do not have a sense of direction, your speed is likely to bring you farther away from your goal. Real understanding, having the goals (incl. followed values) right is the compass. Intelligence brings speed.

 Your goal

Starting point

You are just a one single person and the world is enermous. You can affect you fate by doing different things in the world, which will then have (positive or negative) consequences on you yourself. The wise affects one’s own fate toward the positive, but what that positive is, depends on the individual: someone would like to be happy, for the others security and survival in the long term are often the only possible goals. But the evolution or God was wise: it is often possible to use the search for happiness as a tool for survival, that is how God or the evolution meant things to be. So before you drop all feelings away as a needless stuff, let’s examine more closely their usefulness to you. At big catastrophes to your wishes & needs in life, you feel down. When something great happens to you, you are glad. This far fine: feelings guide you in a way that makes lots of sense. But what if you have many contradictory causes of feelings? Use a holistic view of the situation, with proportions right and causes and consequences taken into account, and let the feelings find their balance. Typically if things still do not work out all right (do you feel happy and secure?!), you have neglected some causes and consequences in your thinking. Typically such happens when someone that is more intelligent than you are fails to understand the importance of a holistic view and uses a partial view instead, taking so only a part of the facts into account and neglecting all the rest regardless of how important they are in practise. One can do this big errors only at a great cost to oneself. Well, this thing about understanding how to live with feelings without giving up selfishness is a thing to be handled by making honest observations about the end results of following feelings – and remember that looking less fortunate is equal to failing, not equal to being manlier than you! Others trying to save face when they are in fact stupid is usually of no use to you. Please read my book Work Efficiency and Likings about the rational grounds for trusting feelings!

I care about myself but why would I care for the people of the whole world, much less for the animals? A holistic view means thinking about the whole world, it does not necessarily mean caring for all the people, even though it easily leads to it as we see how caring is really beneficial for ourselves. We are not alone, the world affects us enermously. But where many go wrong is the thought that since the world is so enermous we cannot ourselves affect our living conditions, since after all we do affect enermously our nearest social contacts – whether they are near because of living constantly with us side by side or because their identity is like ours – for example selfish. If you choose a certain strategy in a certain kind of situation, all those near you, all those like you and all those like thiose near you, reflect on how well you did succeed by that strategy, and if you succeed really well, the rumour spreads and all of them start to invest in that same strategy in life, making different versions of it. So if you think that you have a good strategy in life, it is not yours alone: it affects an enermous number of people, so you know one thing for sure: your environment does NOT stay constant regardsless of what you do. 
So you just have to take a look at how you affect your environment in the likely case that others copy from you. That is done by assuming that all or a big part of the humans in your environment rely on the same type of tactics, with individual variations and inventions of course. This is easiest if you think that as some fraction of the effect of all following the same course of action: for example do people get supported for doing beneficial things (= justice, market economy) or do they guide their actions in a way that makes most sense (= holistic objectivity, carrying responsibility of the consequences of one’s actions). Because it is a questions of masses of people – your environment + its environment etc. – working together for the things that benefit them all, it is the same things which has traditionally been called moral: the optimisation of the whole, wisely!, toward the greatest benefit for all fairly. Fair play allows feedback for the chosen strategies, so that the masses of people ca guide the whole huge group toward the greatest benefit: safety, prosperity, happiness,… whatever goals the people have.
Kind of gold rush connecting your strategy to the behaviour of many many others, making your own behaviour so echo in the behaviour of the masses of people, changing os your whole environment and making it thus important for you to think of the consequences of that change instead of estimatig everything as if others did not notice anything of your strategy. So you have to use a holistic view and think what would happen if everyybody would do like you! That brings your attention tio the laws governing the whole and makes so you work for the common good instyead of bering a parasite - IF you want to advance your own good. You can count the optimised result for the whole: that is best for you since the effecvt of your environment to your life is so enermous. And that optimised option is perfect moral, like you will see if you count the best allegiancy for you: it is to ally with an as strong group as possible. In the strongest group all work for the strenght of the group all that they can and are fairly rewarded for that. Another word for that is moral.

A CONTRASTING FAULTY VIEW ON EVOLUTION
Many people think that if one by any means manages to win, for example to kill the other one, that is somehow good in the eyes of the evolution. This view would lead to evil ruling if it were correct, but it isn't: Compare two different areas where in one the competition is like above, by any means, and another one where the competition is of the kind that lets the best one win in each thing. Now in the first area the population would develop toward mean and cunning, while its general health and performance in any other tasks would suffer. On the other area the population would stay completely healthy and develop in strenght. If these two areas were in competition later on, the healthy ones would be stronger and win. So it is only healthy competition which is right in evolutions eyes. Short-sighetd solutions do not let your genes survive.
And if the group were very large like the whole world's population, and the evil ones in power in that, they still would degenerate and some unobserved healthy group inside the population would win in the end. So if you think that you are in competition with others, too harsh competition isn't good for your future survival, neither is competition by any means available ok for your future fate. Competition that ensures your own health asnd the health of your own group is the best for you. That means also supporting healthy competition in the scale of the whole world, since if you are under the power of others, their ways influence your own life and survival: their ways should be kept as beneficial to your own health as possible - that isn't the smae as being better than your neighbour, that isn't enough if there is some faraway danger that you ahve to fight too: you have to reach your full potential, to benefit from every chance of improvement that is available. Only then have you made your survival as sure as possible for you.
The society agreement is the way that ordinary people ally for their present and future wellfare. That's why good moral is important - see my calculations.

THE TRADITIONAL EXTREMELY RATIONAL MORAL OF THE FINNISH SPEAKING MAIN CULTURE OF FINLAND

The traditional moral of Finland in northern Europe is on strong rational grounds which can be put to the form of optimising wholes. These grounds are largely based on two simple advices which all children are given: "It is good to cultivate good health (of the individuals, of the ways of living, of the social relationships, of the society, of the environment and of the world at large)." and "It is stupid to break."

The easy principle "A HEALTHY WHOLE WORKS MUCH BETTER THAN A BROKEN WHOLE" helps you to find answers to seemingly impossible questions, like the value of peace, justice, human values, honesty, democracy, freedom, Gaia, love, beauty, sex etc. from the beneficality or efficiency optimising (military or economical) point of view. These are all charachteristics of the healthy world and thus beneficial.

HOW TO MAKE GOOD WIN OVER EVIL
Build in your mind a good picture of what a healthy whole is like: healthy society, healthy human kind and healthy living king, a healthy world. That is what to term good.
Now, compare the evil option to that picture: what is lacking, you should see as a fracture, brokedness in the whole, also malformations should be seen as brokedness of the whole.
And healthy works better than a broken one. So good is stronger than evil.

Also on the following kind of ground it is possible to find that moral is the most benefical, winning option.

WHICH ONE WINS (MORAL DOES WIN)
What means totally value-free optimizing of benefit without preconditions:
It means interest in
what gives most force, power,
what gives protection and how,
what is the best strategy,
what must one take into account about the future,
how to arrange one 1⁄2s relationships to other powers,
which solutions win and why,
what is the most benefical thing,
what must be most feared and
how to protect oneself,
who are the benefical allies etc.
In this analyzis one needs
Extremely good objective thinking with a good holistic view
And openeyedness toward all options, both the dangerous and also the non-dangerous ones is needed in this because it is the creation of force which is important in this analyzis, so if soft means give any advantage that too must be used FULLY.

HEALTHY VERSUS BROKEN

All functioning is build upon the healthy. Healthy versus broken is the pair of opposites to use in order to understand the world. I will apply this pair of opposites again and again, all through this book. With it you can understand a lot about the functioning of biological beings and societies and about the value of moral.

What about the old pair of opposites then: healthy versus ill? Ilness is a healthy function of a broken biological being, a way of it to try to cure itself. In other words, illnesses are combinatrions of brokedness and of a curing reaction which seeks to make sure that the living being survives better in the long run by resting, having a fever etc.
In my opinion the word  ilness  isn t as useful in understanding things as the new pair of oppoisites that I use.

So. A healthy individual works better than a broken one. And a healthy society works better than a broken one. But what are the healthy individuals and healthy societies like? What to aim at?

A healthy individual is by one s nature a part of a healthy society. As a part of the healthy society one works best, is the happiest, has a most rewarding life. Healthy functioning at large gives the most rewarding life. That s what the evolution - or God - quarantees about feelings.
But if the society is broken, it is the same as if in individual is broken: the healthy parts try to cure it back to full health. Each healthy individual is a center of recovery for the whole society, even for the whole human kind as a part of the biosphere. Health in this sense means healthy ways of living. Having found the true chord about the art of living, understanding deeply about life, the healthy individual is naturally a center figure in the social environment having a healthy curing kind of effect on all. This is a moral thing to do since it is for the good of all. So a healthy individual is by one s very nature completely moral in a healthy happy natural way!

The health of a society means that it is completely morally arranged. A society is a cooperation attempt and cooperation is something which has turned out to be useful during the evolution - or in God s eyes. Objective thinking says that cooperation is useful because it brings the force of masses. That can be seen as a vector sum: harmonical or contradictory vectors. Those with like interests can ally for the common good.

WHAT I SUPPORT

To the readers of these pages: please do observe conscientously what are the starting points of my thoughts (= all the points of view that I have heard of) which I use ONLY because you others use them, and what are the end results of my thoughts, the thus supported values (= paradise, excellent moral ad a life completely according to feelings) that I support from my heart. Here observe that the starting points are not logical premises for me but premises only for the other parties that I do oppose and to whom I try to prove my point in a discussion. I do support only the end results and not the starting points, even though I value realism but to me these end results ARE realistical values!

SELFISHNESS

Technology is typically build to a certain purpose only, with a complete disregard for its relationship with the rest of the world. That is contrary to the nature where the health of the whole (incl. pack & liv. environment) helps the survival of its parts. 
And since animals can understand the value of their own health,  can they via compassion and an analogy of the whole to their own life UNDERSTAND also THE VALUE OF THE HEALTH OF THE WHOLE, WHICH understanding HELPS THEIR OWN SURVIVAL. -> GAIA!

What is already ready made, complex but well fitted to form a well working whole, well suited to its purpose, like the nature is, is in character very different from things in their building phace where product development is still lacking, like is with tools and technology.
We have natural ways of looking at the nature, understanding it in its complexity and intentionality: emphaty and feelings at large. The ways of looking at the much less complex technology and the build world are different.

PROTECTION

To live happily and to wish well for others sounds nice but how to protect oneself? The need for protection isn t in contradiction with the wishing well to others. I didn t say that you should sacrifice yourself for others, I said that you could live happily! And if you are moral yourself you deserve to be protected because you thus work for the common good. You can yourself be one of those who protect you. You must protect yourself from those who might harm you, that means from the evil actions of others and of yourself i.e. you must demand moral from yourself and from others. If you yourself err from good moral, from the wish for good life for all fairly, you are thus not allying with the health of the world and so you are harming yourself compared to how things would be if you allied with the health of the world. Better than unjustice is to build on things of real worth. That s why you can sometimes benefit from punishments which guide you toward more moral action. It is better to see the power dynamics of the world: of how people like to be treated, what they answer with good, and how they do not like to be treated, what they answer by attacking. Wish well and protect yourself - that s morally fully OK, even demanded by moral since as a moral person you are a person of worth  Protection of good is an important part of moral, and what would be good if not happy life with no suffering and a good future ahead? This is exactly so when watched from the holistic point of view!
If you have difficulties with just this point, please read the pages about the society agreement. Friends can coperate and benefit from that, enemies cannot and must defend themselves against each other, not trusting the untrustworthy. But one can be fair and moral in this. One should give all rights on the condition that they are not abused in any way. So all rights are conditional. This leads to very unequal division of rights since the individuals are very different indeed, but that is only fair and not against the equality of individuals since all are entitled to the same rights IF they only satisfy the same comditions demanded by true justice and responsibility.

IDEAL SOCIAL GROUP = the best arrangement created by the evolution

Loving feelings tie each part to its best place in the whole.
Imagine two parts (beings) loving some good sides of each other. They get tied together by that love, forming so a subwhole = friendship. While they are independent where they do not like some charachteristic of the other one.

Hate (which, like love, MUST always be directed toward /against JUST the thing that caused the feeling - otherwise things go badly ashtray!!) gets rid of parasites and of other harmful things.

In the perfect group all beings and all parts of beings get their place according to what is best for the group: high if skilled and responsible, low if unskilled or unresponsible. One hierargy for each thing to decide.
Justice keeps things so.
Honesty helps in keeping up justice, so that one can form the strongest possible allegaincy and aren't fooled to accepting a much much weaker one instead.
These calculations about the effect of practises to the whole concern so huge things to the individual that they overrun in importance the position of the single individual in the group - it is better to have the whole on a good ground: also rewarding social life where you can trust people and not just some money - so very few have enermously much money, it aren't beneficial to support parasites benefitting that much, since money counts only when there are big differenciesd in the money available for a certain use.

THE HEALTH OF A SYSTEM, OF THE MODERN SOCIETY

There are some basic truths about the functioning of complex wholes. This include the importance of putting each part to its correct place in the system. This is connected to the value of objective thinking, honesty and justice and to the success of market economy: in each of them one gives things feedback according to what the things are like and that enables one to put each thing to its correct, best place in the system.

Having each part at its correct place in the whole means that the system isn't broken. This is connected to the value of unifiedness, fracturelessness in well "planned" systems.
The value of fracturelessness is in turn connected to the value of harmony:
Imagine a system broken into pieces, starting to repair the system you put some parts to their correct places: you get small unified, harmonical islands, the better repaired the system becomes, the more harmonical its functioning, the more unified the whole.  A well planned system functions without contradictions and fractures, harmonically. The next step from harmonival is unified well functioning. Such are the systems of nature.

The value of harmony as a vector sum

Several harmonious forces sum up to much a bigger force than a group of contradictory, unharmonical forces or a separate one of the forces in question.

< > v ^ contradictory
versus
> > > > noncontradictory, harmonical

Harmonical solution creates more benefit and loses none to opposition
- unlike the contradictory solution attempt.

Thus, cooperation gives strength while strength is lost in conflicts.
So one who values cooperation is stronger than a like one who values conflicts.
And so "soft" harmonical means prove to be valuable. Like this one can see how peace is more beneficial than war and count the difference. One must just add the huge effect of the enormous destruction caused by the enemy. Also there is a loss in war to the safety of the future, like the society agreement with other countries tells.

Applying this result thoroughly gives the efficiency-optimised result:
the most harmonical arrangement:
the natural and healthy (in harmony with the natural ways of functioning of the living beings)
loose (according to the way that things are)
global (all parties in harmony and cooperation)
cooperation.

Ally as much as you can. That brings you success in life. Ally with the society in order to produce good living conditions, ally with the moral ones for the same common cause and with friends to defend the things, which you value. Ally with the living kind to achieve the paradise, Gaia.

Compare the value of harmony to the value of unifiedness and fracturelessness.

HARMONIC FOREST ISLANDS
Harmonic forest islands is the best way that I can think of to think of people living peacefully together. Each person alone is an island with harmonic forest growing on it. Each cooperating group is a harmonic forest island. One can think through the whole society agreement this way: the structure of the whole world in a way, which is constructive for happy life and good moral. This natural division of the world also teaches one healthy independence at the same time as harmonical cooperation.

This way of cooperating can be described also by marking each thing done a vector and by grouping the vectors according to their direction, so that one gets an optimised use of forces.

THE SOCIETY AGREEMENT

The island principle
A way to arrange cooperation:
either cooperation or independence. 
(Use separate islands for different conflicting parties.)

People who CULTIVATE the same thing belong to the same ISLAND.
Share results of cultivation on the island according to justice, which takes into, account the basic living requirements of each. ("Live and let others live." is a good rule to follow.)
Check who belongs to your own island: those who do not follow some set of rules, do not deserve the benefits created by them.
One can create islands for the exchange of benefits.

Like this one can count what are one's responsibilities and rights toward the society: which islands one is on, what are the rules needed for cultivating those things: that's what benefits one has gained and that's what one must follow. This is called the society agreement.

By taking into account also other kinds of islands, i.e. all things that one causes (cultivates), one can see how we together make the world what it is.

One of the most important islands is that  in emergencies one is fairly helped by those who are capable of helping . It includes an obligation to help but one gains the protection in emergencies which is dearly needed.

Forming groups by being in a same situation or by caring for the same thing:
* all mothers
* all those who care for children (including children themselves)
* all those who support good moral, obliged when they find themselves in a situation like this, needing moral guarding behaviour working for the good of all
* all who care for the future of us all
* all living beings
The society agreement says: all those of the group agree to work for the common cause according to real justice which takes into account human values, carrying responsibility of the whole, with the help of common sense with a holistic view.
The freely organized citizen democracy in Finland in Europe is of this type.
Compassion helps us to see the similarities between our lives and so to form this kind of cooperating groups.

As a helping aid in forming this kind of groups, an objective holistic picture of the world formed by objective thinking, which doesn't take sides, and which recognizes things as phenomena with feelings connected to them, feelings that tell about the importance of such things in life and in the world generally and about what to do with such things: which things to support and which to prevent for the good of all: children, free time, catastrophes,...

Feelings of this kind are typical to the Finnish speaking Finns:
what is the role of each thing in life and in the society,
how do things form our fate - is it good to have such things in life or not?

It is typical for us Finns to use a holistic view of the world at large all the time.

Remember this also at the times of war: do not break against justice even then. There is a society agreement with the enemy too, preventing the wars from getting longer and more cruel. Check how much is lost when you do not follow some rules. That much you have to lose yourself, even if you are a man and soldier and think that what you are doing is for the common good. Those who keep the society agreement, are still entitled to their share of good, even if they are female and civilian. More than healthy aggressivity isn't allowed. Being for the good health of the world and of the societies in your aggression is moral, so it is supporting some islands of the society agreement, not destroying them. The army of Finland is strictly for defence only plus for some peace keeping operations of the United Nations.
The society agreement like picture of the world allows one to make cost benefit analyses also at the times of war. The costs of a war are huge, peace is a much much more beneficial option.

NATURAL PATCHES AND SOCIETY AGREEMENT

NATURAL PATCHES
* individual
* social group
* group working together
for some goal
following some set of rules
(not hurting each other,
co-operating for the goal,
nice behaviour
and so on):
1. Things that one needs to run one's life:
* home
* food
* means to get such for oneself (work and the possibility to work)
* safety
2. Things that one likes:
* hobbies
* delicious food
* and so on
And arranging these together:
* hobby group
* ordering food from shop
* And the possibility for such

Large groups
agreeing not to hurt
each other badly
or at all
(no need to, if the places are separate
or far away from each other)

Justice
&
A Harmonic Forest Islands type of society agreement
(like the one above)

Rights and priviledges are conditional:
shared only according to justice!

DEFENCE AGAINST DECEPTION IN ALLEGIANCIES

Think of the world as a huge society agreement: who is really on your own island in each question, you can trust. Who is not but appears to be, who is disguised as one of your own, you cannot trust. So you need an island against the dangers created by those pretenders, especially if they are enemies. One way to guard against such attacks is to use separate islands in deciding about things: you decide on your island on objective grounds which support common good and then check if it agrees with the decisions of others and communicate about the decisions so that you and the others can learn from each other. This is the reason why we are individuals and not solely social beings: so we can make defences against betrayals. If your decisions agree, you are parts of the same group in that question. If not, then you are somewhat on different islands - either as a result of differences in understanding and experience - like usual: that's why the communication and social instincts are needed. Or because the others try to deceive you to an action which is harmful to you or to your group or serves some other goal which you do not agree about - that's why you need to trust your own understanding too.

HANDLING UNSURENESS ABOUT TRUSTWORTHINESS

If you are in a situation where you do not know how things truly are, for example whether you can trust some person or not, you should act in a way that is O.K. from the point of view of the both possibilities. Take yourself care of the important things in your life, so that they get well even if the other person is not trustworthy. On the other hand, give yourself and the other person a possibility to living in harmony, in a constructive way: do not break anything that you do not need to - especially not those things that the other person needs if she/he truly is trustworthy. Try to do things according to justice, and work for common good, without harming good persons and without letting the evil ones to benefit in any way more than they deserve when they are judged according to their moral (= how much they do for the common good, and how much they break). So make an ordinary deal with safety precautions. These safety precautions mean in practise moral guidelines and making the morality of action in practise the condition for any rights. (Rights can be refused also afterwards and deals devalidiated if the other one breaks against the moral guidelines.)

HOW TO AVOID CONFLICTS
One simple advice on how to avoid conflicts, is to get more independence when one feels the need to aggressively influence things, so that one can peacefully influence them instead. Read my texts about the healthy aggressivity.

INDEPENDENCY AND COOPERATION WITH UNIFICATION
How to fit together the needs of independency (defence, justice) and the benefits of unification and cooperation? One needs different degrees of freedom and safety precautions in addition to unification. One can have separate islands for each party, or them in harmony and cooperation, or such with a promise to stay so, or such for a long time or one single area. Safety precautions make it possible to sift to a more independent arrangement if one gets abused. The ideal is to be free and cooperate at the same time, such is the healthiest kind of system, I think. In other words the arrangements should be so ideal that a new participant would on one's own choose the same ones as are already in use. This is the way that the culture and the society of the Finnish speaking Finland work. That is: if they try to choose the best ones and not sabotage the systems. Separate islands and independence are needed just as a defence against sabotage and other attacks. Those who cooperate survive better.

Between island there can be exchanges: what one has a lot it will give to others and get something that they have a lot in return. If someone has lots of strength, it can help the weak ones, who in turn make the promise to help in return.

DEFENCE: SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Always make carefully sure that the most important things get right! Make several checkings instead of just one: use all the weight of the importance of the thing in question.

If you go to the right direction, you might get something done. If you go to a wrong direction, you surely do not get anything done. So it is worth trying.

I never take an evil person as a model for myself.
Instead I trust my own sense of health and happiness.

NOT TAKING SIDES
Not taking sides is a prequisite for justice and for true objectivity.

HONESTY

X% honesty in a system gives (X%)^n effectiveness to the system where n is the dimension of the system and X% the amount of hitting the truth, what ever the reason for it. So systems are build on honesty.

Speak the truth when you say something. The deeper you touch the truth, the better you will be listened to. Your soul is like that of others.

Honest looks
If the looks of people are not correct, honest and sincere, people get wrong roles in the society and the functioning of the communities suffers a lot. One should not allow the disguising of evil as good. That is against honesty and justice, against the functioning of a system and against correctability, since then the evil ones never hear the objective grounds for being moral. The Swedish speaking Finns do not understand this, the Finnish speaking Finns do understandf it.

NO social roles
Social roles are partly lies: they try to build on a ground that does not exist or deceive others into supporting unjustices. These are both serious faults, which should be avoided.

Lies and unjustice decrease the effectiveness of arrangements.
There is a Finnish saying: "What the big before, the little ones after." If the leaders of a country steal by lying or doing unjustice - either from other countries or fron their own subordinates - others typically copy the amount of lies in order to trust in the most intelligent ones' understanding. So if the leaders gain X% extra by lying or doing unjustice, all the others try to do the same. That means at least X% of everything lost to lies, so the effectiveness of the system decreases X% per every dimension of the system. So the leaders gain (100+X)% * ((100-X)%)^n = ((100%)^2 - (X%)^2 )((100-X)%)^(n-1)< (100%)^2 - (X%)^2 < 1. So since the dimension of the system, n, is at least one, the leaders lose instead of gaining! For example the dimension of the system n=2 if there is stealing plus laziness because of lack of motivation because of the stealing. That would cause a loss of 2X% in addition to the gain of X% by stealing, so the total effect is a loss of X% to both the leaders and to the citizens. In other words, lying or unjustice as a practise in a country decreases its standard of living noticeably, so much that honesty and justice would be a more benefical option.
A proud nation is a self sustaining nation! Also if it is a big nation capable of mistreating others - It will not mistreat others even if it were strong enough for that.
Remember that if you are in an important place in the market economy so that you could gain a lot by stealing a little or even more, you are one of the leaders of a country and so the above calculations apply to you too. (You are an opinion leader, an example to others, especially in your own branch where your money comes from.) So you will lose by stealing and doing unjustice, not gain.
My homecountry Finland has risen in some 150 years from starvation into which one tenth of the population died, to be one of the countires with the highest standard of living in the whole world. There is only one growing season here, even the summers are quite cool and the costs of winter warming are enrmous. So the third world countries with two growing seasons and no heating costs at all could prosper with less work done than what we are forced to do here, if just their cultures would support honesty and fair play instead of lies.

EVERYTHING IS BUILD UPON THE HEALTHY

All functioning is build upon the healthy and 
a healthy biological part is by its very nature 
a part of the paradise in the beginning of time. 
So all biological things are build upon 
pieces of the paradise in the beginning of time.

Could this work efficiency (or what ever) perspective of mine make you happy for the rest of your life?

This is at the same time completely free and non-destructive, very constructive for happy life in the world at large, a movement for EXCELLENT MORAL IN HARMONY WITH THE DEMANDS OF THE MODERN WORKING LIFE AND THE PERSONAL QUEST FOR HAPPINESS OF EACH INDIVIDUAL OR SOCIETY. And since it SHOULD BE EASY TO LEARN, it could spread, maybe even all over the world in some sense, to some extend at least.

A SIDE STEP: OPTIMISING THE TECHNOLOGY
So an optimised system consisting of both natural and artificial parts is optimised as healthy. This is a generalisation of the term "health" to such systems: fully functioning and optimised in many ways goes my definition of health of such systems. For such a system to be optimised, the parts of it have to be adabted to each other and optimised, healthy and fully functioning, themselves. So how to optimise the artificial parts? For that you need engineering type of thinking: objective thinking with sizes and connections of things right. 

That is an ongoing process: the development of technology. What it requires of humans is good thinking ability and that in turn is based on healthy natural ways of living. So the development of technology and the changing of ways of living to more paradise like is possible simultaneously! The change toward healthier and more natural in the ways of living supports the development of technology.

PART II:  SOME 30 VIEWS

Since the time begun, has our true nature placed a call upon us. A call to live a full happy life which gives the best survival for us and for our offspring. What makes us strong are the things which keep us fit, which give us a full life and happiness. 
What makes us weak, are catastrophes, the reasons why we become weak and suffering. We suffer in order to avoid those things. We feel love in order to reach for what is best for us, for our survival. 
The message of our feelings is the same as the message of our understanding. 
Like the love for life is in the very nature of living beings, it is in their structure that just such life that their feelings guide them toward gives the best functioning, best survival, keeps them most fit for work and is the most rational choise. So if there is a strongest one wins competition, just natural life according to feelings and understanding is the winning solution of how to arrange things.

THE BEGINNING OF TIME WAS BEFORE THE STONE AGE!

One problem is that when you think of the past of the human race, you think only up to the stone age and not about the even earlier times when humans were not grasping tools.

THE HEALTHY WORLD IS A PARADISE (PROOFS!!!)

This thought is about a healthy one being happy and about the healthy natural life in nature bringing happiness, so that the healthy natural world would be a paradise.

1. Full health and natural healthy happiness go hand in hand, so the healthy world should be a happy world.

2. Fullfilling the natural living requirements of a living being should make the being happy, so the healthy natural world should be a paradise.

3. Feelings can be seen as forces in life. Negative feelings repel negative things and situations away from our lives, repel things that are harmful to our health, to the health of the society or the environment or to the health of the ways of living. Positive feelings bring us toward things which are beneficial to us, to our health, binding us to the healthy natural ways of living. 
With completely healthy ways of living the world must thus be full of binding feelings, of happiness and love, and without repelling feelings, without suffering. 
So the completely healthy natural world must be a paradise. 
So a paradise is more a way of life than just a place!

Let us look at the world from the most usual starting points that humans or some kind of groups like big companies use in looking at the world. Let us see how all these fit well together via the goal of completely healthy world, which is so healthy that it is the best functioning arrangement and at the same time a paradise on Earth...

32 MOST COMMON VIEWPOINTS SUPPORT
THE GLOBAL PARADISE OF A HEALTHY WORLD:

1) The goal of NATURE PROTECTION, for example that of preventing global warming because of co2 emissions etc., is to have the biosphere healthy and natural. If we could smallen the amount in which we disturb the nature, radically smallen it via changes in the ways of living, that would be a very good direction of development for the nature, just what we wish for!

2) The ages old quest for HAPPINESS. Healthy natural ways of living in a close contact with the nature are our best quess in what gives happiness. So please unify these ways of living with the ideal of a healthy natural world where technology disturbs the nature as little as possible. This is the extend into which health and naturality must be followed in order to reach the health of the world as I here mean it. The whole world in a good state gives a safer future for us all.

3) The wish for FREEDOM means freedom to live freely according to the human nature: happy life in a good living environment according to the human nature. It does not mean the freedom to destropy all the others. The rule "Live! and let others Live!" gives the maximum amount of freedom that one can arrange for all in harmony and it fits well together with the goal of a healthy world: happy people living in natural ways.

4) The need to SECURE THE FUTURE obviously brings the same end result: healthy natural happy ways of living and the living environment, the world at large in a good state.

5) MORAL means cultivating what is good and preventing catastrophes. Good means healthy natural ways of living in a healthy natural living environment with the world at large in a good state. Moral is what is needed for upkeeping those.

6) The major goals in UPBRINGING OF CHILDREN agrees typically with these goals of healthy ways of living and good moral which ensures a good future for all fairly.

7) The views of most RELIGIONS: a healthy natural world like God created it, with healthy natural ways of living according to the ages old human nature and according to perfect moral are things to aim at.

8) MOST CULTURES: it is wise to cultivate good health and to take care that the future is in a good state as well as we can it quarantee. Needless breaking and especially the causing of bigger catastrophes is stupid.

9) SCIENCE says that the healhty animal and the healthy group are the strongest and the happiest, especially if the living environment is healthy and natural.

10) Even COMPUTER LOGIC understand the following: healthy = fully functioning = 1, broken = non-functioning = 0.

11) Also COMMON SENSE understands that health is a good thing to aim at in everything, and that brokenness is non-functioning, so the healthy is the wisest choise in what to invest in.

12) THE NATURE OF ANIMALS and other living beings understands the value of health (versus brokenness).

13) The VIEW THAT NO MATERIAL WORLD EXISTS: we are still some kind of wholes and clearly a completely healthy, fully functioning whole works better than the same whole as broken, as non-functioning.

14) A picture of humans according to which there is NO NEED FOR EXPERIMENTS ON HUMANS like those done during the Holocaust: completely healthy is the fittest for any task, since our functioning is build upon our healthy parts. If also its society and the rest of the environment are healthy, the individual is even fitter!

15) The wish to DEVELOP TECHNOLOGY: the healthy human living a natural healthy life in every respect is the fittest for any task, also for intellectual work.

16) The NEEDS OF EXHAUSTED WORKERS needing rest and variation to their lives agree with the healthy natural ways of living!

17) The DREAMS OF just about all SCHOOL CHILDREN of more life and less dry school like things agree with the goal of healthy natural satisfying life according to feelings and a full understanding.

18) A view capable of HANDLING LARGE INTERCONNECTED SYSTEMS: the concept of health is a good one for this purpose and easy to handle by the help of our everyday experience.

19) The wish for CONTROL over masses of people: health of the practises makes the people agree with the practises and creates no opposinfg forces.

20) The WISH FOR POWER: health of the whole in every respect, for example the health of the practises, gives strenght.

21) GREED/BENEFIT agrees so with these same goals too: health of everything gives a strong well-arranged working force which results in a high standard of living from which to benefit.

22) So also the SOVINIST POINT OF VIEW of wanting everything well grounded ON HARD VALUES agrees with these goals: health gives most strenght (you get added strenght from the health of the practises of the world), benefit and power.

23) HARD WAR LIKE RATIONALITY, like if evil got to rule the world and there would be a fight over who is the strnogest, agrees with the value of health: your health is beneficial to you and the hgealth of the practises of the rest of the world, i.e. good moral, supports your own health.

24) It is also a view which could PREVENT PEOPLE FROM BEING CONTROLLED BY THE FORCE OF TECHNOLOGY, like by some global computer network, because health of the individuals (human values taken to the extreme) and health of the practises (high moral and natrurality of the ways of living) are the most beneficial choises for anyone interested in what they can gain from controlling human lives.

25) This direction of healthy ways of living, high moral and health of the whole world also agrees with ONE'S OWN GOOD, so that the harder one reaches for any goal or the harder one is pushed toward any direction, the more moral and positive for happiness one becomes since health and allying with the health of the world give the strnongest allegianvcy.

26) This direction agrees with FEELINGS AND INSTINCTS.

27) What would be SEXually more attractive than health and happiness?

28) The points of view of AIMING AT MANLINESS OR WOMANLINESS agree with these goals: healthy natural life according to emotions is what the cahrm of each sex is based on.

29) Also the FEMINIST point of view of wanting respect for FEELINGS AND MORAL agrees with the same ways of living.

30) The goal of SOLVING THE FIGHT BETWEEN GOOD AND EVIL as well as possible! Via the concept of health.

31) Even the point of view of following names and SYMBOLS as wisely as possible agrees with this view: reach for good health in everything and avoid needless catastrophes, even needless breaking of anything. Toward the positive, away from the negative, sometimes with the help of tools...

32) The wish to get something like the HIPPIES BACK, this time without drugs and in a lasting way by the help of a theoretical framework which can protect the hippy movement from assaults from those with a tough view on the world.

Why happens this to be so? Is it just an unlikely coincidence? No: it is a truth which we can well trust since the EVOLUTION has shaped us so that our health and health of the society are what our nature, our feelings, instincts (= directions) and understanding (= a map, directed only because we have the goal of answering our needs which the feelings and instincts too help to answer) together, guide us toward and what gives us, the society and the world at large its best possible functioning.

MANY POINTS OF VIEW
Since there are so many different viewpoints here, the perspectives on this page are very different indeed, so that you may find it convenient to jumb over some and return to them later if you want or need to.
There is a lot in common with many of these viewpoints so that it is possible to handle many of them at a time and then unifie them all to this one single conclusion of the global paradise of the completely healthy world being the best option from each and every of them.

THIS IS THE BIGGEST QUESTION 
IN THE WHOLE WORLD!

A task for the reader: Can you think a bigger thought than this one? Think of an as important thought as you can and then compare to this one: was your thought already a part of this thought, how do these truths connect? The task of thinking is to affect as much toward good as possible in as important questions as possible... If you cannot find an even bigger thought (and anyway) please share this thought with others too!

For a religious answer too see my God story below here. It is quite outrageous but in the light of the thoughts on that story it seems that the thought about a paradise being the winning option could be even the reason for God's existence and especially to the purpose of our existence, to the goals of God creating us.

A story about the purpose of 
God’s life

Once upon a time there was a God, not the highest one of all but an ordinary ruler of one world. The God was worried about the state of the universe since there was too much evil around. Beings didn't seem to understand why to not to be evil. So the God decided   it was the fate of the God   to try to cure all the countless worlds. In order to do so the God created a world, and created us in it, not to be spirits and capable of much like most of the beigs were, but to be of flesh and bone, and with a lesser intelligence, so that everything would be clear for all to see.
Now in this world we manifest how good is stronger than evil, because good means cultivating good health and evil means needlesss breaking, and because we all understand that a healthy one works better than a broken one. From a technology hell with evil around we have found a road back to the paradise which God created: it is the cultivation of good health of all scales. It is what makes us strong and happy and brings us the best intelligence that we can have. It is what saves this world and all the others.
One might add that if God created the world, God created it this way perfect.

Please spread this view:
THE GLOBAL PARADISE OF A HEALTHY WORLD WILL WIN!

A healthy whole works much much better than the same whole as broken.

And full health and happiness go hand in hand.

Outrageous but true:
Applying this to the whole world, one gets the result that in a strongest one wins competition the healthy natural world is the strongest option,

i.e. the healthy natural world should be the winning option over any other kind of world.

And that the healthy natural world is a paradise.

In other words, IT IS A GLOBAL PARADISE WHICH WINS if there is a competition of all possible arrangements and competition strategies, including the very militaristic and incredibly evil torture-oriented ones, still it is the world wide paradise movement which wins!

THIS IS WHY WE HAVE FEELINGS

This is the evolutionary reason for us having feelings: feelings and instincts guide us toward the best survival - see my two books about that! 
Also God created us so that we could keep to God's wishes, to the correct way of life, because it really is the best in practise, also in the tough world.

THIS IS A THOROUGHLY THOUGHT OF VIEW
This is a thoroughly thought of view. I have an unusually great capacity to objective thinking and I have thought this through from many sides, from all that I come to think of, like you will see if you bother to read this page through and take a look at my two books.
The above are the general guidelines of what I have ended up - they are not just a mistaken common sense view od what one would think the first time that one comes to think of the question. On the contrary: they are the end result of many long chains of thoughts which just happens to ber understandable by the common sense.

(Examine the motivational factors, the guiding forces of humans and the guiding principles of the other forces in the world and ensure by sharing information (=this theory of mine for example) that they all will lead toward a better world, toward the best possible world, which will also be the winner in the modern competition:)

THE GLOBAL PARADISE WINS
So has it always been and so will it forever be...
Only if the world is guided by what we think and if we think, like many have thought this far, mistakenly that the above is not true, then we will guide the world to a wrong, unbeneficial direction and there will be no paradise. But if there is a free competition of all the answers and true objectivity governing, it will be a paradise which wins!

This should mean that as time passes we will eventually end up in a global paradise much like the one in the beginning of time - now we have the technology tools but it ought not to prevent us from reaching the paradise - if we just trust objective thinking enough. This time the paradise will be WITH the technology but otherwise very much like the paradise in the beginning of time since the instructions of usage of humans have not changed and the natural healthy goals of humans still make sense from the point of view of survival and that's why we need the Gaia paradise from the point of view of modern competition. (See for example my book Hard Rationality of Feelings and Instincts about the connection of academical or engineering work efficiency and natural & emotional life.)

A STORY

For You, Gaia My Love

In the beginning of time there was the healthy biosphere, Gaia, and it was a paradise, a world full of love.

There were no artificialities in the world. Each part of Gaia was at its correct natural place and so the world was filled with love for life and love for Gaia.

Humans had simple tools with which they made a living in harmony with the nature. Until they forgot. Maybe it were the tough times that forced them to do so. Maybe all were not as intelligent as others and there was a communication problem. But at some point someone got attached to the tools and the society didn't correct the error away. The paradise was lost, since only with healthy ways of living can there be a paradise, only with a full understanding bought by the healthy ways of living can there be a paradise. Now there was no longer and those who didn't have didn't understand why since they used stupid artificial ways of thinking and could no longer understand the natural truths that each animal and each human being understand as a gift from birth. They tried hard and thought that maybe by the help of tools they could reach the happiness which they had lost when they lost their natural emotional understanding of the world.

Times passed and the world become filled with artificialities. The natural emotional understanding was no longer trusted except by only a few men and most women. The world seemed out of control. The tools followed laws of their own, not caring for the human kind, much less for the living kind.

(Scenario Year 2100 ->)

But as machines were developed, they became wiser and wiser. Untill their understanding started to resemble that of the natural humans and animals, of even the Gaia brain. And so, a little by little, the Gaia paradise was restored by the help of the machine brains. This book is about that mechanical road back to a Gaia paradise. About the mechanical understanding of machines, about the very sure scientifical way of thinking and about the natural understanding of humans and animals.

By nature, I am a member of a Gaia paradise. Everything that I do is in essence an act to make Gaia better, safer, more flourishing. Everything is for Gaia. Also this book.

Everything is for Gaia. For all living beings. Just sometimes, quite often for us humans, we get lost and the end result is not for Gaia but something else. But let us now find / travel the road back to Gaia, back to the paradise in the beginning of time…

Gaia Theory
PLAYING WITH THE IDEA OF GAIA

Gaia, the Mother Earth, a global “symbiosis”, is the most beautiful possible world, a paradise upon Earth. How to reach it in practise? The task of thinking is to affect as much toward good as possible in an as important question as possible. So what would be a better subject for an intellectual hobby than making the Gaia idea more realistical and finding roads, which lead toward it in practise?

The birth of Gaia. During the evolution the safest choices survived, regardless of whether they were safe because of strength, allegiances or a lack of enemies. So those who allied survived better than like ones who didn’t. This lead to an evolution toward complex interconnected wholes: individuals consisting of many cells, packs ecosystems, maybe even larger wholes, Gaia, the whole biosphere as one complex interconnected cooperating whole, being the largest of them. 
Gaia is a debated thought. It is true that allegiances are useful, but does it happen in practise in a this big scale? 
And how to explain the existence of predators, doesn’t it prove against allegiances? I myself come to think of at least three ways in which living beings can ally despite the existence of predators: understanding, the sense of health and predators removing breaks in the harmony. So predators would be only one side of the reality and not the whole truth about the impossibility or possibility of allegiances.
1)	Predators. The role of predators would be to eat away the ill ones who break against the harmony and they would so repair the whole system toward balance and keep so the prey populations healthier and the world more paradise like for the living. This role of predators would be partly automatic, a consequence of it being easier to catch ill prey, and partly a consequence of intentional striving for, because – cynically thought – a healthy prey population offers a sure source of food for the predators. 
A Gaia like hypothesis: Thus it might happen that the predators would be likely to eat away just the evil ones because their sense of health*  is lower than that of others, which could be reflected also in their ability to move and hide, if the functioning of an individual and of the pack form one intertwined whole, like is probable. 

2)	Understanding. My own experience about objective thinking tells that the human thinking ability is based to a very large extend to analogies to and from the sense of sight. So most animals have the basic building blocks of thinking ability. In addition they can discern between a healthy and a broken via their sense of empathy and via atmospheres. So one would imagine them being capable of understanding also large scale dangers with the help of analogies, by comparing to their own lives. This way the living beings could form Gaia, the global “symbiosis” also via their own understanding. So at least of there were no artificialities and no need to handle the artificialities by the help of trained thinking ( which too is easy to build upon analogies to nature landscapes) in addition to the instinctual understanding.
3)	 The sense of health. A way in which we at least form Gaia, the global “symbiosis”, is the following: humans and animals share a common gesture language, which makes it possible to communicate between species. Likewise the basic principles of functioning are the same for humans and animals. So even very different kinds of animals can serve as models of healthy kind of life to each other. This way our own health is intertwined with the health of our whole living environment.

A paradise in the beginning of time. There was a state of the world in the beginning, at the time before the artificialities bought by humans. Then the whole biosphere was in a state of complete naturality. But what was the state of naturality like? Was it a paradise and if it was, the why? How could one know? 
A paradise means happy life. It does not mean the absence of death. It might be that a paradise demands the existence of death: the non-paradise like individuals have to be removed, the lost ones dropped away by the force of illnesses and predators. Suffering is not a part of a paradise. Still, there is a need for forces wh9ich guide the lost ones back to the healthy paradise like ways of life. So feelings can be seen as forces, which guide toward a paradise. The best feelings: happiness and love, bind living beings to their correct places, to a paradise. In a state of complete naturality with healthy natural ways of living the world is filled with happiness and love.

So the Gaia paradise is the most victorious arrangement created by the evolution: there are all the living beings healthy and cooperating. Health gives best functioning and cooperation unifies all the forces to common use.
But is the Gaia paradise the most victorious arrangement even nowadays? What to do with the effects of all the artificialities?
The human functioning is still based on the ground created by the natural evolution: a healthy kind of life in the nature brings best functioning. This applies also to thinking ability. The changes in our living environment have been so quick and jump like that human haven’t had the time to adapt – and couldn’t have adapted, since the town environment doesn’t offer as much and same kinds of stimuli as the nature environment: count for example the number of technical kinds of details in a nature landscape and compare that to the same of a city landscape - how much better shape recognition ability and so a ground for the thinking ability the nature landscapes offer! Also the other functions of a human being long for the ground given by natural ways of living. For example the physical fitness is crucial to the well being of most. So the Gaia paradise is the best choice also for an academical worker when watched from the point of view of working ability.
What about feelings, do they still guide right? Feelings are always feelings about something: about things that are important to our functioning – for example feelings about the importance of feelings, in other words about the importance of to account factors which are important to our functioning. The social feelings and compassion help us to form allegiances, which is a beneficial strategy when watched from the point of view of the evolution, also in the modern times. A solution according to emotions is the most beneficial one and the Gaia paradise the most victorious arrangement even in the modern world. Maybe this piece of understanding helps us to reach better living conditions and to protect nature.

* Evil means needless breaking as opposed to the cultivation of good health, so evilness is connected to a lack of understanding of the value of health.
PART III: THE GLOBAL FINAL PARADISE OF THE COMPLETELY HEALTHY WORLD (INCLUDING BOTH 
NATURAL BIOLOGICAL 
AND ARTIFICIAL MAN-MADE 
PARTS)

The value of ideals like Gaia

It is worth thinking through what is like a well working whole, an ideal, the shape of the whole. The goals help to see solutions. The goal and the principle of functioning are the same if it is an optimized solution formed by the natural evolution, like when the solutions are so simple that we can them find.  In such case the goals help to understand the functioning of the system.

An ideal 
•	an understanding of what the ideal would be like if it would be realized 
•	make the following division to the world:                             the ideal (=full naturality!) + variations to it (= our unfortunate life circumstancies)
•	Think, how to support the ideal, how to protect the ideal: functioning is based on the natural, optimizing toward the ideal. 
Things are like this when the state of naturality is the ideal: 
The building parts are healthy unbroken, 
and the structures are optimized when the system is in a state of naturality. 
The reason: the system is formed by the evolution which is an optimization process creating what we call naturality.

THE MYSTICAL GAIA

Gaia, the Mother Earth, a global symbiosis, all living beings being one, a world filled with love, is the most beautiful world that one can imagine. It is so beautiful that it is hard to believe in its existence. Still, it is  our nature. Gaia is our true nature. That is inevitable because of the evolution just had to shape us so, like I seek to show in the following.

But to begin with, the Gaia ideal sounds like a fairy tale to us. How to make any fairy tale rational? Divide in into the things which in it touch our feelings. Typically all these phenomena touch our feelings because they are important as real phenomenoms in he world that we live in. Like if you divide so the Gaia dream, you get the following list: the healthy biosphere, carrying responsibility, love, friendship, peace, happiness, unfractured nature, etc. All these beautiful things are directions to aim at in our lives, in the reality. The healthy biosphere is what we will concentrate in the following.

What is healthy? It is the fittest arrangement produced by the evolution and things near it. This health had to stay from generation to generation in order to the species to survive. So the forces produced by the evolution, the forces in our nature, in other words feelings and instincts, (Understanding gives us just a mao of the world, not directions to go to.) just had to guide us toward better survival, toward the full health. That means the health of the individual, the health of its society and even the health of its living environment. Since only with all those in a good shape are the possibilities of future survival best. So the feelings had to guide us toward the full health of the world, of the whole living environment: of the biosphere.
And when healthy, feelings had to keep us healthy, tie us to the full health of the world and its practises. So the healthy world had to be full of tying feelings: full of love and happiness.
And there had to be no repelling feelings in the state of full health: no suffering, pain, fear or hate - except toward the non-healthy things that were present either as possibilities or as realities. Otherwise the world would not have stayed healthy. Other strategies would have won in the competition: those who counted on the health of everything, those whose feelings guided them toward the best survival ability and so toward the safest possible future.
In other words, the healthy biosphere is by definition the best possible arrangement in regard for future survival. And at the same time it is a global paradise, a world of eternal bliss for its inhabitants, something higher than we can even dream of. And so our all feelings guide toward it.

Just sometimes, our thinking is partly mistaken and that’s why we do not live in the paradise, in a fully healthy Gaia. Any more, a long time ago we did. And since Gaia is the best alternative in the modern competition too, we one day will live in a fully healthy Gaia again.
Gaia is full of strategies of life, some of which are good and others of which have to be dropped away by the force of predators, illsesses and avoided via suffering. These evil sounding things in fact do a beautiful work as the gardeners of the Gaia paradise, ensuring a good future for us all even if the living conditions do change. That is what saves us all. This does not mean that we should sacrifice anyone against justice: we can protect the weak who by being good caring pack animals have deserved the right to be protected. Only those who fail this test of belonging to a pack, i.e. the very evil ones, are left without the protection of the society and soon die away in Gaia, to a relief of those who are left behind. Harsh, yet realistic:
What would be a better paradise to live in than the most beautiful possible world which is also the winner in the strongest one wins competition?! The most paradise like paradise of all paradises, the one and only correct answer to our nature’s calling. Which will also stay such forever! Gaia! I.e. the healthy biosphere.

The road back to Gaia: a good picture of the world
A MAP TO GAIA

Gaia is a beautiful tale and nature lovers' dream. At the same time it may be very near of what the present day nature and human societies are like, because the human and animal nature is still the same as it was in the beginning of time, before the age of technology.

If we learn how to handle the artificialities, we can resume the original oneness, the nature paradise Gaia, we just need to stop being confused because of all the technology in the world and understand that the human functioning is still the same: we are essentially a part of Gaia. That fact can noone take away from us.

In a strongest one wins competition Gaia wins because Gaia is what fully functioning means; and because the adabtability of living beings helps us to change from guarding against one thing to guarding against another, to against the dangers in the use of the artificialities and evil kind of military things based on them etc.

So Gaia doesn't need to be a thing of the past, it can be our future!
We are only a couple of short steps in pictures of the world away from Gaia.

The Gaia direction

What was it like when human and nature together formed one single whole like town and humans nowadays form an unified whole? 
There is a difference: town has been built, the nature has been created by the natural evolution to function together with humans.

In practise there is an initial state: the state of the biosphere before the age of humans, before the age of written language and technology. It is so long past that we have to deduce what it was like. It takes some time before we can reach it again, if we want.

In rebuilding Gaia we need to put each of its building parts to its natural corretc place in the whole. That requires lots of work. And the connections by which the living beings form Gaia have to be rebuild: pictures of the world, thinking, communication, compassion and instinctual cooperation.
Living beings, packs, ecosystems and Gaia as complex interconnected optimized wholes…

So we need a theory of complex interconnected wholes. Simple essentials of sucha theory will this book, together with my two former books, give to you.

IS THERE AN ERROR SOMEWHERE?

If this paradise wins idea sounds too outrageous to you, you might try phracing it in a much much milder and surely objective way, like is customary here in Finland, and then just mention that this truth is so objective that in fact one can in theory go very far into this direction without it ceasing to be beneficial direction to go to. "It is always good to cultivate good health in everything!" and "It is stupid to break!", says the Finnish culture...

(I want to remark that there should not be any fault in the objectivity of this thought and of the different grounds for it that I list later on this page!)

I do not know where the possible weak points of my thoughts are. Everything should be surely objective. You should tell me where the possibilities for improvement are. I have tried to reach the most beautiful things that I know of, make them real and world wide, starting from an as cynical point of view as I can imagine i.e. from the completely value-free competition for power and benefit, and from all the nicer points of view that I know of. If things are even worse, i.e. evil ruling without other goals than just destruction, we can use the value-free competition to put the more moral ones, our own side into power, to let the global paradise win. I have succeeded in this. I can even prove it for computers governing instead of living beings and for the case that no material world exists and we are just spirits or some kind of intelligent constructions run inside a huge computer brain (The beneficality of the optimised solution to the whole does not demand that you would have been planned and especially fitted to that kind of whole by the evolution or by intelligent planning.). I do not know what more I could do, the rest is up to you.

NO PARADISE WITHOUT MORAL

But there will be no paradise without excellent moral. One cannot keep up a paradise without excellent moral and one cannot build a paradise without moral. Moral meand cultivating and safeguarding good (That is just what good means: things that cultivcate the paradise direction, like the avoidance of catastrophes, the supporting of practises that lead the world toward better, etc.)and resisting evil = things that might prevent or even break the paradise. So the prequisite for all who want to live in a paradise is to cultivate excellent world wide moral in their lives: to cultivate the health of the world, the health of its practises with all their might.

What then is moral in this sense? Moral turns out to be a relatively simple matter. It means absolute justice, objective thinking with a holistic view, honesty and human values while carrying responsibility about the whole and about all big matters.
What is UNUSUAL in this view about moral, global paradise and universal love is that it rejects pacifism as a part of these valuable things and instead recommends healthy self-defence! We cannot support any huge evil just because we stick to some rigid rule of nonviolence. We have to understand that some things just have to be opposed and that there is violence in the human nature for a good reason: for the reason of allowing us to guide our lives in practise - toward better! There are times for being in peace and occasions where fighting is needed. This is just realism, a part of carrying responsibility and so a part of good moral!
Like the need to survive, i.e. the need for healthy self-defence, is the wish to pruduce healthy offspring an enermous driving force in the world. So moral should not include a negative view on sexuality. Instead moral should be open-minded and allowing toward free sexuality in harmony with feelings and understanding. 
Otherwise one would be supporting other things as moral by these great forces i.e. supporting evil by their force and that does not make any sense! Let all good things, at least moral, happiness, self-defence, sex and healthy selfishness, ally for a better world! Let's call THAT moral - instead of the old views on moral which have been affected by the needs of making religious moments more dedicated, more effective (the most religious moments are not your whole life even though religion can affect your life a lot).
(Also: It was an error to count technology and tools as evil: they are such a great force in the world that they made evil win in our eyes, even though it was just the era of tools coming and not the other forms of evil winning. Technology and tools, all the artificialities, ought to be counted as an outside factor with which to ally instead of as good or evil in itself. Thus the end paradise here is the healthy biosphere together with all the technology - not without either part!)

It is a fact that the existence of technology makes it much more difficult for us to life in natural healthy ways. But there is no intention toward that difficulty in the technology, the difficulty is just a byproduct, and as the technology gets developed further, it gets better adabted to the needs of humans. At the beginning of the era of technology humans were forced to adabt to the needs of using the technology, as if it too had been a part of the nature, in order to be able to benefit from the technology. But with the new techinologized ways of thinking, there came competition which made exploitation a not-so-good tactic and equality+cooperation a better one. So as the time passed, the needs of humans were learned to take into account too. And as the technology develops, it becaomes increasingly much possible to adabt it to the needs of the humans, so that the contradiction between having technology and living healthily lessens. but of course solving the problem demands lots of wisdom. Still, we do not need to consider technology as evil - it is just dangerous, not intentionally evil.
And since technology gives a competition advantage, it can safeguard us against the non-caring. The winning option has both technology and the needs of living beings taken into account! That is the best that we can in practise, with the power dynamics of the world that we happen to have, achieve from these starting points, so let's call it good! It ought to be a some kind of paradise on Earth after all, so it ought to be good enough! And if we end up in that final paradise and notice that it still isn't good enough, that means that our feelings advice that we would feel better in other kind of comditions, in a real nature paradise, then maybe the technology has developed far enough to allow also that option and since our feelings advice toward it, it can be deduced that it best for the survival of the whole! So this direction together with the technology ought to be good enough. Let's term it good! 

This is just a generalisation of good in the old biological context:
1) happy life, health, moral, best survival for both individuals and the whole, for us and the generations to come.
Now take that term "health" – it includes happiness and moral, the latter of which includes the future survival too - and say it in a way that applies also to machines:
2)	fully functioning optimised 
and fitted together with the whole
- That is what is good in technology: 
it works (functions optimisedly (the first point)) and 
it produces us things that we need (it so safeguards the future survival of the whole by taking care of the biological part). It is thus fitted together with us, for the good of us (= survival + happiness) and for the good of the whole (= the well-being of human workers).

RELEARNING THE LANGUAGE OF THOUGHT AND EMOTION

There is one right way to live. That's the Gaia paradise's way. Gaia is the living Earth, the whole biosphere in a state of complete naturality and health. It is a world filled with love, since we love the things which we need and in the state of complete naturality and health which we are adabted to, all our natural functional needs are met.

So why isn't the world still Gaia, where did we lose our natural ways of living on the way? It all maybe comes from one misunderstanding about the natural ways to think. Nature useed to be the biggest factor in our lives, we used to use emphaty in understanding it and mechanical thinking in understanding the use of tools. Now technolgy is the biggest factor in our living environment and we use emphaty as a way to understand it and try to understand humans via mechanical thinking.
Instead, we should understand that technology hasn't got a nature of its own, we cannot understand it via emphatizing with its style. We have to use our sense of sight instead. The way we watch nature landscapes gives us an enermous amount of well understood technical kind of information. We can use the same way: pictorial thinking with a holistic landscape of how things are, with technology too. That way we can handle the masses of information that we need in our living.
And with humans we have to remember to use emphaty, even if human workers sometimes are just tools of the large systems. Still, the right way to understand all sides of human life is emphaty.
But the world is so mechanical nowadays, how can we figure out what large systems want if we use just emphaty with humans and other living beings? The old answers were well thought of and they stay valid as the times change, whatever the new world is like, how artifical and even unhuman ever it is. And especially in natural kind of life in natural circumstances. So my thesis is that the human thinking has gone all wrong but that everything else stays the same. My thesis is that even human thinking has stayed the same, we just have to relearn the language of our thoughts. That's what this book is about.

Nature. We used to live in nature. The sky and the clouds, the forest and the meadows, the sea and the rivers, all the plants and animals were our guides to a better life. And guides for our thinking ability too. 
Animals are intelligent. They have all the natural building blocks of intelligence. Likewise is the human nature intelligent.

THE NATURAL INTELLIGENCE OF ANIMALS

Most animals have a good sense of sight. They can also understand the emotional voices of other animals of the same species. So it is likely that they can remember scenes for navigation and imagine in their minds eye what they can deduce from the voices that happens somewhere.
They can also recognize states of mind (the different emotions, thinking, using the senses, using the attention, atmospheres) from the body language & from other observations.
So they have the building blocks of intelligence:
imagining what the reality is like and making observations about that. And they can learn from others also thinking by copying the body language and so by following the states of mind and action of another.

So are we away from Gaia only because we humans use so artifical ways of thinking that we and those who copy from us get lost?
Here in this book is a holistic view of the world and some basics of human thinking. I hope that they can partly help us to the right road again.

FEELINGS TELL THE TRUTH

Feelings tell the truth. How is it possible in the modern world? Our needs connect us via our feelings to our natural goals in life. Our pictures of the world take care of the artificialities in the world. If something is confused, it is our picture of the world, our ability to recognise things, and not the feelings themselves. This book seeks to correct away at least partly that confusion in the pictures of the world.

GAIA AND SUFFERING

Pain is at the same time a negative feedback and an advice on how to spread one's forces, especially one's attention.
Suffering is a form of pain, so it carries the same message: one should concentrate on curing the hurt part.
Those who err in bad ways away from the healthy Gaia likeness, are forced to suffer. Otherwise the beautiful Gaia paradise would be lost in a short while. If there were no suffering in the world, the systems couldn't be guided, except by the force of understanding and instincts. Feelings would be forcing one to not to care. Now there are threefold safety precautions: feelings, understanding and instincts, and no force guiding away from the paradise.

REPAIR MECHANISMS

Gaia needs repair mechanisms:
* pain and suffering
* diseases
* predators
They drop errors away.

The most Gaia like ones, the healthiest ones in every respect, do not suffer and do not die. They live very happily. That keeps Gaia well on its right tracks.

Suffering is not a part of the paradise. But the avoidance of suffering is!

Revir fights take care that an animal with a poor strategy of life cannot steal room from those with a good strategy of life. Those who err in bad ways away from the healthy Gaia likeness, are forced to suffer. Otherwise the beautiful Gaia paradise would be lost in a short while.

Allegiancy
SAFEST WINS

In evolution it isn't the strongest which win but the safest: 
the most likely survivers whether they survive 
via strenght, 
allegiancies, 
lack of enemies 
or for whatever reason.

A HEALTHY WORLD WORKS BEST

To be clear: Here are two thoughts:
The first thought is about the strenght of healthy ones and about the healthy world being the best functioning arrangement tested by the evolution. (How does evolution which works on the level of the parts bring a tested arrangement of the whole? Those who ally in good ways benefit the most, from getting a healthy group - just like a high standard of living benefits the citizens. The strongest group is one in which all its members cooperate for the common good without any unfair arrangements.)

The truth that a healthy one works best is an ages old truth, proven by the evolution, created by the evolution. How well does it apply at these times of modern technology? First there were the requirements of the humans, then the rerquirements of the technology but now the technology has become so far developed that it has become more and more adabted to the requirements of humans which have become to count again in questions of optimising the systems. Answering the needs of humans keeps humans fit to work. That means keeping humans healthy by following human values.

How sure is this thought about a healthy whole working better than a broken whole then? It is among other things a common sense truth, so our everyday experience about everything backs it up - such is an enermous amount of evidence. It also agrees with our scientifical picture of the world - as far as I know: at the very least it is a hypothesis which could be proven to be true. The thought is also a part of the traditional Finnish speaking culture of Finland, so it has been proven by time and by the understanding of some five million unusually rational people. It is also a thought which agrees with our feelings and our natural sense of atmospheres, which should indicate that it is a way to see the world which evolution has proved useful and so true. So it should be an as sure truth as possible for a "new" thought to ever be.

With the existence of technology the word "healthy" gets a new generalised meaning: “a well arranged and fully functioning system”. It means among other things that each thing is treated according to what it is like - that means true objectivity and something like justice. Also that each part is unbroken so that one can optimise the system - in questions of human beings that means following human values.
Also for solving the problems with the concept of the healthy biosphere which I call Gaia and about Gaia being the winning option, use the above definition for good health and relate that only afterwards to what the nature is like: so you will find the balance points between opposites, like for example the purpose of competition is to keep the populations as healthy as possible and to develop new strategies, not to destroy everything in short-sighted excessive ruthless competition. Some principles which are needed in this are in my texts about the rationally grounded moral and in my Gaia pages.

If it really is, like it seems, beneficial to ally, why people do not always do so? One must ally for the best health of the whole, sometimes that means conflicts too and sometimes it is mistaken to mean conflicts. But often the reason is just that we have become confused and stopped from following our feelings fully. And our understanding is often too little to bring us the whole way toward full cooperation.

It is easy to optimise any whole: seek to maximise its health: its functioning is based on its health parts and healthy substructures and structures. This means minimising its brokedness since broken parts do not work at all. And already optimised whole, like a biological whole which has been optimised by the evolution, is contradictionless, so leaving some parts unactive does not make the whole function better but instead lessens the functioning of the whole since the parts support each other and the functioning of the whole. (For example the thinking ability of humans is supported by the sense of sight, wandering in nature and sensitivity to atmospheres. Similarly the parts of a well working society support each other - see the pages about the society agreement.) This method of optimising wholes by keeping them non-broken and healthy applies to all wholes of all sizes. Since the biggest things matter the most, one should start by keeping the biggest scale healthy and unbroken - that means peace as a strong value. Such peace means most peace in the world in the long run and not the avoidance of all conflicts untill evil has conquered the world and there is something like a civil war all over the world. Also fair play is typical to a healthy whole. Justice which aims at respecting human values - live and let others live! is a rule to follow. So one can let the different strategies compete about which one is the most beneficial to the whole and support just such strategies while punishing those who damage the system. Defending just one's own good isn't the thing to value but to defend the greatest good of the whole, including peace and large scale cooperation. Via the health of the whole one gets most prosperity since just good srategies are counted on and bad ones dropped away. So it is good also from the selfish point of view to act for the benefit of the whole more than one acts for one's own short-term good. This way one can build friendly relationships to others which will be beneficial in the long run but also in the short term.

What about the human goals in life?How do they connect to the optimising of a system which has both natural and artificial parts? Humans were created by the evolution and have not by their nature been adabted to the existence of the artificialities. So the human goals in life have been created by the natural human goals in life which seek to keep both humans and their environment in full health. Our thinking takes the artificialities into account, our goals stay unchanged. If it is the goal of the systems get enough working ability and/or to keep humans under control, they need to answer human needs, in other words safeguard good health of humans and their environment. That means respecting the human goals in life.
Also if the rulers, be they some kind of a cool intellect like robots and computers running wild or whatever (This refers to aliens and to technology, not to cool calculating living beings, since even though one could argue this way also about living beings, there are much more common factors between living beings tying us all into one big allegiance for a life according to our nature since that is the only kind of life that we can bear. Our needs are alike.), if the rulers are not interested in humans as a working force or as happiness as a goal in itself, they have their own fate to think about. Maybe they will some day meet someone stronger than they are, so they have to be prepared for that too. Then it might be that they would be treated according to the same principles that they treat others with. Not destroying others needlessly they might not them selves be destroyed. If they killed us, they might be considered without the protection of the "articla" in the society agreement which says that all the likes of them should be protected. The society agreement says that you buy your rights by the obligations that you follow. If you are too dangerous to others because you do not protect or respect any values, you will be killed by the others who want a safer world. So even robots as rulers should respect our right to healthy life. So a healthy way for them to build a system is to treat humans fairly and according to human values, giving them lots of freedom to moral action.

The extend to which we are dependent on our environment makes it understandable how our own well being is dependent on the health of the whole and how consequently selfishness equals moral. We are concretically dependent on our environment if we are, like I claim since it was and still is the most beneficial choise during the evolution, by our nature parts of a bigger whole, of the whole biosphere in good health. But even if we weren't, our well being is affected by the amount of conflicts in our environment: how much we get harmed or benefitted by the environment and how well the environment works together to produce a higher standard of living and how much it consequently can help us toward better life when it decides to do so. So whether or not we are parts of a bigger whole by our nature, we are in practise parts of a bigger whole and our whole life is dependent on the relationship that we have to the whole.

What means totally value-free optimizing 
without preconditions:
It means interest in what gives most force, power,
what gives protection and how,
what is the best strategy,
what must one take into account about the future,
how to arrange one's relationships to other powers,
which solutions win and why,
what is the most benefical thing,
what must be most feared and how to protect oneself,
who are the benefical allies etc.
In this analyzis one needs extremely good objective thinking and openeyedness toward all options, both the dangerous and also to the non-dangerous ones - it is the creation of force which is important in this power analyzis, so if soft means give any advantage that too must be used fully.

For example even the softest of things: feelings, tell things of importance from the tough point of view: If one takes things that cause very strong feelings, one can see that they connect to things which are important in the hard point of view. For example death has a dark atmosphere and is clearly harmful in that. And a childhood with all one's needs answered has a light reddish atmosphere and is clearly a strong ground to build upon the future. Even feelings which tell of the importance of feelings themselves make sense after this: they are signs that we should take big factors like these fully into account. Following feelings in important questions makes the society strong, since feelings tell of the importance of the major factors of life - they bind the level of our picture of the world to the level of practise makin it possible to act in a way that makes sense.

It turns out that the healthy world is the most beneficial option. It is the species which need to survive in the long run, so there is lots of variation inside each species to ensure the adabtability of that species to different living environments. Consequently there needs to be a healthy amount of competition so as to drop away the strategies that are not suited to the present day situation. The same competition makes adabtation possible whenever it is needed. But too much of competition would result in short-sighted decline of the population, in other words the population would not be fit to live any more or at least not to flourish.
Today there is lots of cultural "competition", some cultures vanishing away, the multitude of cultures changing to a "single species ecosystem". Such reduces the variation to almost zero. It is not a wise strategy in the light of the evolution.
Even the competition between those who trust technology or other sides of life, should not be so harsh as to erase away the good sides of each strategy. The natural strongest option would be to ally: to develop technology while keeping the contact with nature and the wisdom of other areas of life (even where the science is not able to follow).

Apply very thoroughly to everything the truths that you can be sure of. That way you reach much farther with your thoughts than what would be otherwise possible for you. Remember that the level of the whole is especially important.
One basic truth that we all humans and animals, maybe even plants understand with all our being and which should so be very sure indeed, is that a healthy one works better than a broken one. One can reach very far with this simple truth, proving that it is the healthy world which will win in the modern competition too, only with this time all the technology around but without it affecting things in what comes to the living beings.
The health of the world isn't as problematic concept as it might seem at first glance. We are nowadays far away from the full health of the world, that is true. But things haven't been this way for so long. We can argue about wheher the world earlier was healthy either, whether it has ever been completely healthy. Still, that does not remove the point in aiming for full health and I think that that goal is deeply embedded in our genes, in our very nature. Since full health means full functioning. We can think of health as a direction to aim at instead of as a state that had to dominate over time in order to9 have any effect (what an absurd thought this latter is! Since ths is not a question of habit or social custom but of what is the best way to arrange things, i.e. a question of the objective truth which does not need to have been the practise, especially not for a long time, in order to exist and affect things. The strongest one will win even if there has not been anyone that strong before.). So from the scale of your own life you understand the importance of some principles in building or cultivating anything. Now just apply them to the large scale too.

These thoughts are not as complicated as they seem. You just have to apply thoroughly to everything what you understand for sure: 
A HEALTHY SYSTEM WORKS BETTER 
THAN A BROKEN SYSTEM
A healthy system works better than a broken system. And several harmonious forces sum up to a bigger force than a separate one of the forces in question.
As grounds for the comparison use these divisions at least:
* co-operation (brings force while none lost to conflicts) versus lot of conflicts (lost force, lots of damage, nothing gained by allegiancies)
* unified harmonic (the parts supporting each other and the whole which in turn often supports the parts)
versus scattered one that does not work together to form a well-working whole (nothing gained from the presence of the others)
* healthy versus broken (check in your field of experience)
* on a healthy ground (trustworthy), steady versus unsure, unsteady
* long-lasting (usable for a long time) versus easily scattered
* strong (can bear many things) versus weak structure
* according to motivation, feelings and the intellect & the idea in things (according to these forces/guiding factors) versus against them
This is a basic truth and has a very wide area of validity. So apply it very thoroughly to everything!

(A PITFAL
Since there are so many perspectives which support my view here and since people typically disagree with each other, my whole social environment tends to go totally ashtray, supporting the only remaining opposing view of evil as a value in itself (and not just as a tool) 
- instead of even the other major force of the demands of the use of technology (in other things as workers work efficiency) i.e. the force that must be counted as a separate direction with some connections to the goal of a healthy world. How to count this: attach a gummystring to the goals of systems from each part of the world: the more essential the part is, the stronger the string - even if that essentiality comes because of tool value, like the value of human ways for a selfish computer like mind.
So, PLEASE avoid the pitfall that they have fallen into! My thought here is the truth and agrees with your very own goals too, so please let this truth be as it is and SUPPORT it. At least do not oppose solely for the sake of opposing or for not trusting me enough, since so you end up opposing yourself and the things that YOU value. This can be the truth, even if this is new to you and to your environment!)

OBS! This is a complex view, a whole picture of the world here. So no wonder that it is new!

A PARADISE MOVEMENT

What would You be interested in if not this?:

"I love Life, happiness and things positive for happy life 
- like most of the others, like You too. 
This is why I support from my heart the things that support good life 
and oppose the things that ruin it."

It is easy to understand and agree about. Still, I think that there is nothing much more needed in running the society and even the whole world well.

What you need in addition is a proper holistic view of the world with causes and conditions taken fully into account in it, so that you can guide your actions toward your goals well. One such picture you could maybe learn from reading these pages of mine.

My above thought
describes something very essential in human nature: what the driving force is behind all that we do, what is the ground (feelings help us to answer needs which keeps us healthy which in turn helps us to meet our goals) of all achievements, both small and large, and what is the base for economical success (what sells well: the meeting of needs, and what is the base of our working ability: meeting our needs). Since my thought is ok at the level of the biological picture of humans, and says nothing that would depend on the circumstances, it ought to apply fully to the ancient times too. At least it could be our most educated guess of what applies, what is wealth, worth, success and meaningfulness based on in all times, both those of the ancient pharaos and these modern times. It applies everywhere, in all corners of the world, during all ages. Just sometimes it is emphasised differently: those who are not free, yearn for freedom, those in danger for safety, the suffering for a peace of mind, the miserable for happiness etc. What is just one value among others for one, can be a distant dream for another one. But the direction that we aim at, according to our own understanding, in ways that vary according to our personality and our situation, is always the same: toward a better life in better living conditions and toward a safe future for us. All human action is in essence like that. That is what is meant by good and consequently that is what moral, the base of society, handles, that is what moral ultimately means: action according to the ages and ages old human nature. The time of the pyramids was a manifestation of the human nature! We are interested in what life was like then, what life should be like nowadays, what was worth a lot then, what is worth a lot in the world even nowadays, what brings the meaningfulness and content to life, to the lives of us all...

(The base of wealth: the motivational ground, the ground of your working ability and what sells best, what is most needed.)

WHAT IS MY PROJECT?

What is my project? I try to offer a holistic view of the world which would be easy and obvious enough for all: centered on easy rough divisions like natural/artificial, now/long time ago, healthy/broken,... And since our perceptions affect our actions, I have tried to choose the focus of attention so that the end result would lead us to a better world, to an as good world as possible: to a natural healthy paradise upon Earth, to the most paradise like paradise of all which could last forever since it is the strongest and safest option in how to arrange things in the world. This I have tried to do in a way which would not demand one to make big changes to one's habitual ways of thinking: in a way that would agree with most of the already used perspectives! In my opinion I have succeeded quite well in this, even though I know that as people are not good in mechanical kind of thinking, in handling mechanical kind of systems objectively, but still insist on using just that way of thinking, the result may seem very complicated - remember that it is a whole picture of the world though! Via following my advice you could develop in mechanical or technical kind of thinking: take a picture of the thing in question, observe its atmosphere and see how the atmosphere correcponds to the main features of the seen landscape of the things to think about. That way you can conceive objectively an enermous amount of details if you just build the picture objectively.

FEELINGS GUIDE US TOWARD THE BEST SURVIVAL

Feelings were created by the evolution or by God to be a force which guides us toward the best survival. That s why the best option in questions of survival is a paradise to us. But you have to follow all feelings fully for this to work, in other words you need a holistic view of what you feel about things and of what the world is like, of how things interconnect. The positive feelings set goals and the negative feelings mark things to avoid. You have to follow both kind of feelings but just the positive ones mark the goals and the negative onbes tell of things to avoid. Realism and good social eye together with the tendency to support good instead of evil quarantee that this works. One must believe also in punishments in order to get the feedback systems function properly, even though communication is another way to correct things and social skills still another.

The global paradise (movement) is the healthy world and as such the strongest arrangement producerd by the evolution. Love keeps it up, fixing each part to its healthy, best place in the whole - best for each individual, for each group and for the living kind. That's why the healthy world is a paradise: love binds the parts of the biosphere to their correct places.
This answer stays valid despite the existence of technology since the human nature has stayed unchanged and the development of technology makes it possible to adabt technology to the requirements of humans and so one can optimise both technology and the human part separately, each according to its nature. The nature of technology does not set any requirements to humans, so one can optimise the human workers and human groups in the evolution's way: via health!

The World Is Of Love, love is the basic nature of living beings

GAIA IS 
THE MOST PARADISE LIKE PARADISE OF ALL POSSIBLE PARADISES

(To the religious ones: it may be that if God created the world, he created it to be such that healthy kind of religious life is a part of full health and so the healthy world is also a religious world but otherwise just like I have described here on my pages.)

The healthy biosphere which I call Gaia paradise is the most paradise like paradise of all possible paradises. Any imaginable paradise is a paradise just the amount that it is like the Gaia paradise. Since Gaia is the state of complete naturality and health, the whole world in peace and happiness, which fulfils all our natural needs in natural healthy ways - also the need for peace and security and our needs in how each of the needs should be answered.

And each kind of imaginable world will do well in competition the amount that it is like Gaia, especially in the biggest matters. Since Gaia likeness is what gives power and well functioning, Gaia is the ready-made solution to everything - by God or by evolution's competition.

Gaia is the whole biosphere in a state of complete naturality and health: an interconnected whole whose parts carry responsibility about the whole, like is natural for beings with an understanding about their life and living environment, about the beneficiality of allegiances. Gaia is something like superbly moral co-operation in all scales.

How can moral win? Isn't moral a thing of the past, of the age before technology, military competition and trade? No! Moral brings the force of cooperation. To be moral means to act for the common good and that happens to be the most beneficial arrangement.

And feelings tell about the importance of things to life, so they tell information which is essential whatever one does, whether in competition or otherwise.

Technology is just an addition. It does not change the nature of things in what comes to living beings' functioning. Technology's effect to competition ability must be counted as a sum, as an addition, separately from how to treat the living beings. As technology is developed, it gets adabted to the requirements of living beings. Technology is capable of adabting, living beings are not. Evolution happens only upon time, upon many generations and it isn't jumb like, it is gradual and that is not the case in adabting to the technology since the technology is a new factor, a factor of a completely new kind. We must survive through technology based on our old functioning. Our most efficient ways of handling the technology, the enermous amounts of information in the modern world rely on our natural ways of functioning, for example on our capacity to handle sensory information of seen nature landscapes - much of the most efficient thinking is like watching imagined landscapes of structures, such is also engineering work. And the best training for such is to lead a natural healthy kind of life.

What then is the ideal way of life like? 
It is something like the traditional ways of American indians and of the other so called primitive cultures of the world with their close contact with the nature and with their healthy ways of living   with their enermous amount of sensory stimulus and other factors which keep us healthy and fully functioning. But that way of life has to be combined with having the technology: a portable computer, a phone, etc and importantly: modern kind of work to do. It may be that as the time passes, we will find more efficienct natural ways to handle the modern work too, but for the time being we just have to combine two different types of building blocks: academically or at least school educated with the technology, and natural healthy life with the nature. The latter gives us the capacity and endurancy, the former is what matters a lot in the modern world. Still, the piece of understanding that I am offering about the value of natural way s of living and natural living environment, may make it possible to change many things in how the cities and modern societies are run, at least on the level of looks and feelings & atmospheres, and that ought to cure a lot of the nasty feelings that people have: we matter after all!

What is this kind of intelligence then? Why and especially how expliciptly does it offer advantages in the modern world?
Based on the natural healthy life in a healthy natural living environment you ought to have all your capacity in use. So you would be naturally intelligent, strong and wise also socially.
But this presupposes that you do value the life in the nature, all the natural aspects of your life, placing them close to your heart. Since if you wander in the woods and say to yourself that this is only the woods, nothing special that is, you will pay no attention to the complexity of the view around yourself. A huge tree will be just one piece of something to you and you will bypass it in a fraction of a second. So you will get no training from anything. At large I consider it important to never say "just/only" but to trust one's emotional understanding of the worth of things instead! So if you wander in the forest and are touched in your heart by what you see, hear, sense and smell around yourself and in you while walking there, you will use all your natural capacity to conceive the things in the forest and get so much practise that there is no other way than other forms of healthy natural life to get such.

UNIVERSAL LOVE

The Japanese have a point of view that I, a European, do not know almost at all but which fascinates me. It is the point of view of universal love, love of the individual toward the world at large and love of the world at large toward an individual. That connects to my own view of the world which is a simple mechanical model.

Feelings affect things. In that sense they are forces in life. Knowing that those forces are products of the evolution or creations of God, one can deduce about them. They have to affect the world toward a better health. That s also what they in my experience have always been doing. So, the repelling feelings repel away factors which are harmful to health, the moving feelings move the world toward a bigger health and the binding feelings bind the world to the biggest health. So the completely healthy world must be a world full of binding feelings: full of love and happiness.

One can unite this idea with another simple idea and get a very beautiful result. 

The other idea is that healthy biological wholes work while broken wholes do not work at all. If one breaks a biological whole, the level of the whole works no longer. But some of the parts may have been left unbroken. So thoser parts may still work. To all levels of biological functioning applies that healthy wholes work while broken wholes do not function at all. The functioning of a partly broken whole is a sum of the functioning of the healthy parts. Applying this to all levels, from atoms to the biosphere, one gets the result that all biological functioning is build upon healthy pieces of the healthy natural biosphere.

These two thoughts together make us notice that all the functioning of biological beings is build upon things toward we and other healthy animals feel natural healthy love.

The existence of all the artificialities in the world does not change the nature of living beings, so this result about the world being build upon the things which we love stays valid. The change in living conditions by the introduction of technology has been too arubt to allow considerable adabtation by the evolution. God didn t recreate humans when Adam and Eve ate the apple from the tree of good and bad knowledge. So, the world is still build upon the things which we love.

But loving things is a complicated thing. It is based on our perceptions about the reality. If our minds are too confused about all ther artificialities in the world, we cannot conceive right what is the role of each thing in the world and so we do not feel love toward the right objects but are instead sometimes mistaken: love the not-so-good instead of the really good.

But one with a really healthy mind and spirit would observe correctly what to love and what to resist as harmful. And to such an individual, the world would really be based entirely on loved things. I hope with this book to teach you some of such a perspective. So that you too can be one for whom the beautiful phraces are not empty words but the reality of your daily life.

FEELINGS ARE PRODUCTS OF THE NATURAL EVOLUTION

We are products of the natural evolution. Our needs help us to stay fit and our feelings help us to answer our needs.
Our functioning is largely based on social things. We are pack animals. That's why we feel strongly about social things: they affect a lot our chances in life.

We are also adabted to a certain kind of living environment: to the nature. Just such environment makes us function best. That's why we feel strongly about the nature and the weather.

We are also adabted to certain kind of ways of living and to a certain kind of functioning of the human groups that we belong to. So we feel strongly about questions which have to do with the ways of doing things: do those cause us enjoyment or hurt us?

LOVE
When I say "love", I mean health and full functioning with all the needs answered from the point of view of life. Love is a charachteristic of a completely healthy system.
Answering needs makes the whole function well: that's why needs exist, that's what is meant by needs.

Gaia Paradise is 
All Your Dreams Come True

Meeting all needs at the same time

Gaia is the perfect arrangement for us. It meets all our needs at the same time, because that’s the kind of life which we are adabted to: that’s what gives us most happiness and best functioning in everything!

A human being with one's needs, instincts and likings, together with the human society and the world at large, are created by the natural evolution to work together as a harmonious unified whole.

Meeting different needs supports the functioning of the whole when part after part is put to its correct place in the system.

The more needs are met, the better the system functions harmonically together and the happier, the stronger and the more intelligent we become.
Justice and other needs of the world, the society and their members are included in this.
Increasing health in one's own life helps to increase health in the environment and is so good for the society and the world at large.
Correcting things always toward good makes the different functions support each other.

Also my theory is somewhat like "all your dreams come true": whatever dream you have, it is propably either an achievement of some kind or happiness that you dream about. Getting them both at the same time, like healthy natural life which supports your capacity and gives you happiness, should make you satisfied, whatever your dream is - as long as you do not dream unnatural dreams of meaningless destruction.

All That Matters

I am interested in good life for myself. And good life for all fairly is just about all in the world that matters: my own life and the lives of all the others - that they would go well, that's what matters.
Why to get interested in anything else - in anything else than MORAL that is, since that's what moral means: moral is the way to arrange good life for all fairly - and to earn fairly a good life for oneself too.
(And fair play is, except moral and so needed in building a paradise and in earning a good life in any case, just a form of rationality: treating each person, deed etc according to what it is like - it just makes sense to do so, and so makes one's social life more peaceful and harmonious, makes you more righteously valued among others because their heart's voice too says that you behave right.)

Moral

Moral means cultivating good and happiness is what is meant by good. Resisting evil is equal to preventing unhappiness. This is so from a holistic point of view which - I believe - is natural for humans, like the quest for happiness is.

Conscience
CONSCIENCE AND INSTICT NATURE SHARE THE SAME MESSAGE

My conscience is the central part of me that I live by. It commands me to pay attention to the whole, to get the whole world to a good shape: that's what also my instincts and understanding both guide me toward. It also guides me to pay attention to the feelings of others and to what is important in life: happiness of me and others are connected, since we are all social animals, we can be healthy only with a healthy kind of pack, my feelings of compassion and the graving for happiness both advice the same way.

My instinct nature, I feel that to be the same as my conscience's message: starting from either one I end at the same end result, multiple ways being safety precautions against malfunctions and errors in finding what life is about. What makes the message the same is the emphasis on happiness and a holistic view of the whole world in my thinking and a sense of the interconnectedness of a human group. 

I think that with these corrections to the usual kind of moral one could raise up children to be very moral adults in a very happy, natural and rational way.

TO BE FOR THE HUMAN KIND 
MEANS TO BE FOR THE LIVING KIND
Our fate, the fate of the human kind, is connected extremely strongly to the fate of the living kind. There is no future for us if there is no future for the rest of the living kind. When we want to save ourselves, we have to save all the living kind! It is the time for action.

All that people do is for moral

Since everything is based on the healthy and we are pack animals by nature, parts of the Gaia paradise (= the healthy biosphere, in my texts) even, you can think that everything that you do in good health is in essence moral or for moral. It is lack of skill and understanding plus the thought errors, which cause that the end result isn't always moral at all.

This is a new point of view: you will need to practise it, it is a skill, before you learn it, I guess. But it may be so with the other thoughts of this book too...

How to find out how your deeds are moral: find the place of those things in the Gaia paradise, in the completely healthy world, which is completely natural too. Like: the army is for defence against evil. In this you need to divide human action to its basic components like in the text Fulfilling dreams.

Kahlil Gibran (a famous writer from Lebanon): “When you work, you fulfil the part of the most far away dream of the Earth which was ordered to you already when the dream was born.”
Gaia for Gaia

Just find the healthy form of all of your deeds, and of the deeds of others, from the point of view of the whole world (This is a skill.): the way that you repair the world toward full health and help to keep it flourishing where it already is healthy. Like for example, searching for happiness is a way to search for healthy happy ways of living as a part of the wholes that you belong to, the biggest of them the healthy world. The rule "Live and let others live!" makes typically others happy too. If you find the right chord in living, you can serve as an example to others too and so help to cure the world.

All mentally healthy people are moral, says the Finnish speaking culture of Finland. This moral is described in the following way: Completely healthy people have a healthy understanding, so that they treat big matters as big and everything according to what it is like. So they choose the best course of action in the large scale matters and carry responsibility about them. They also carry responsibility about their own life and about the big matters in the lives of others. The feelings of compassion toward all living beings, which the Finnish speaking culture of Finland says that all healthy humans have, are another reason for carryung responsibility about the fate of the world at large with its masses of people and other living beings and for carrying responsibility about the lives of others. A healthy person also has a healthy emotional life and so cares well for oneself too and is quite indipendent in one's understanding and ways.
A person who does not qualify by this standard, is classified not fully mentally healthy and rational. A person who is dangerous compared to the healthy ones is classified dangerously irrational, selfish, short-sighted, and also insane if absurbly irrationally irresponsible about big matters about which one is responsible. (So the Finnish concept of mental illness doesn't refer to a disease but to a dangerous irresponsibility.)

A BROAD WAY TO HEAVEN: THE HUMAN NATURE

There is a broad way to heaven:
what is natural for a human being to do,
according to feelings and a holistic understanding of the world.

There is a narrow road to hell:
artificiality and unnaturality.
(So mistaken are those who count on artificialities.)

HEALTH INCREASES HEALTH

How healthy ways of doing things affect the environment toward better, healthier, more well-working and happy.
Building things on a strong ground.
Giving good example to others and the natural reparability that is thus created.
Finding the true chord, getting grasp of the art of living and of what common sense says.

A really intelligent person: living in a healthy happy way, giving thus a good example to others responsibly, affecting the world toward better by giving a healthy example and by having found the right chord in living. Compare this to the values of women.

Health and social life
SOCIAL LIFE, HEALTH AND OPTIMISING

Intelligent optimising leads toward a healthy social life:

Also in the human social groups it is good if all the wholes are unbroken, healthy and natural which means: according to instincts, moral, common sense, honesty, fair play, healthy mind and spirit, etc.

One must start from a picture of what a completely healthy and honest and fair natural human society is like: a human relationship is a part of it. And compare the other options to that only afterwards. Otherwise one tends to obscure the view of the whole, or to lie to oneself because of one's already existing habits and choices of life. But the fact remains that the most natural is the most efficient and the best choice in many respects.

So one cannot manipulate people (manipulation is artificial, evil: breaking behaviour or behaviour which doesn't create natural healthy both-sided bonding behaviour between people, so it creates broken wholes which do not give the individuals the strenght that healthy social relationships would give them.) and so aim at the best functioning or best intelligence.

Instead one gains the best social support by being a good natural healthy kind of social relationship, and best understanding of behaviour and characters by emphasising with one's social environment, by being a good fair emotional deeply touched social relationship to others. Because that is the natural way for the human society to function: it uses the social resources most efficiently to the good of both individuals and of the pack or society, since it is the way that the evolution (or God) optimised us to function.

This may be easier to understand with the help of the already familiar picture: the diagram

The smallest circles in the diagram here are the individuals,
the next biggest level describes the different natural functions (getting food and shelter, sharing wisdom, nurturing children, caring for emotions i.e. for all the living requirements,...) of the human pack
and the biggest level the natural functioning of the whole pack or the whole world.

Read the texts Honesty and Justice and optimising. Also human relationships and human groups are systems, so one can apply to them what one knows about the optimising of systems: a healthy one works better than a broken one.

THE DEVELOPMENT OF GAIA

In competition those who cooperate do better than the same kind of ones who don't.
So during the evolution those who didn't ally as much as possible were much more likely to drop away than those who allied. That resulted in an evolution toward complex interconnected wholes in the large scales:
individuals consisting of many cells, packs, ecosystems and maybe larger wholes and even Gaia.

THE WORLD IS ONE BIG ALLEGIANCE

If just conceived right, the world is one big allegiance for a better life at a better living environment. (Read the texts The development of Gaia and Wholeheartedly.) One just needs to conceive right the place of each thing in the world and the right ways to cooperate: good moral and naturality and health. Those allegiancies are in our nature, in what full health means. 
At places this allegiancy works all right, at places it is applied mistakenly because of all the artificialities of the world. It is always the thinking part which is mistaken, everything else works all right but can be mistaken because the thinking part is mistaken. Animals too think: they have pictures of the world and make observations about how things are.
To understand the role of predators, make clear that the allegiance is for a better life, not for the avoidance of death except in ways which quarantee a better life for the society.
A thought in moral is often a building plan. Beauty tells that a world according to that plan would be a good place to live in and a strong choise for the power oriented too.

Defending Gaia
THE HEALTHY BIOSPHERE 
ISN'T PACIFIST

There is some discriminating needed. One needs to raise the good over the evil.
Thinking about that: Gaia cannot be totally pacifist, otherwise it would deteriorate into a hell as time passes.
Gaia must be for peace though: for the biggest amount of peace over time. That means some conflicts sometimes in order to overcome dangers to living conditions in the long term. Gaia needs an ability to defend itself. This is the same as with the advice "Live and let others live!" meaning curing kind of aggression, or with the freedom of individuals ending up being the freedom of totally moral (sides of) individuals only.

Gaia needs to defend itself well.
This includes the use of technology to defence.
Because we live in the world with large systems, the winning solution is Gaia ruling large systems in questions concerning living beings and not just Gaia alone.

Gaia fullfills all natural needs and gives the best functioning: best intelligence and best working capacity, being the winner in a strongest one wins competition, and fullfills so also most other kinds of dreams and wishes.

Gaia wins especially against evil and torture oriented ones. If one just concentrates on defence well enough, because Gaia keeps living beings healthy, fully functioning and well motivated.

PEACE VERSUS PACIFISM

With the modern weapons it is easy to get much destruction with only a small effort. So it is more important than ever to support peace - just in the relation that the arms are stronger and more destructive. But even though that may be a great difference to the times long past, that is still different from pacifism in the sense of supporting peace at all costs. 
Aggression exists for a reason: in order to protect ther best alternatives against evil and degeneration. So pacifism at any cost is equal to supporting evil: it makes no sense. One should just respect moral, and justice as a part of it. Peace and equality sound beautiful in the ears of most, but justice is even better! One should weight the different things and see so which one is the best alternative. For exampkle Margaret Tatcher by fighting a tiny war propably did so much good for the respect for women at large that the benefits of that war counteract by far the losses - even in the eyes of pacifists since women are typically more capable of supporting peaceful alternatives.

A CULTURE BEAUTIFUL LIKE A RELIGION:
THE TRADITIONAL FINNISH SPEAKING MAIN CULTURE OF FINLAND

Compassion for all living beings, a life long all-encompassing devotion to their good, a devotion that rises straight from one's own heart and is put to practise with all of one's own understanding and all knowledge and wisdom that one has managed to gain. Everything seen from this perspective, all the time: first a feeling: what life is like, what to support and what to avoid; then devotion born from those feelings and one's whole life accordingly   as far as one can oneself influence things, in a culture of complete freedom of individuals   with only the MASSES OF foreign influence from other cultures disturbing 

= THE FINNISH SPEAKING MAIN CULTURE OF FINLAND

A paradise movement

I love Life, happiness and things positive for happy life
- like most of the others, like You too.

So I support from my heart
the arrangements in the world which support good life,
moral in this sense of the word.

This is all that is needed for a better world.

(Speaking out this view is also a good way to win new friends.
It works well also wordlessly, on gesture language.)

(If you base your emotional life solely to the things which can bring you happiness at this very moment, you will find a peace of mind. Do not base it at all on the things that you want to oppose, like things causing suffering or good valuable things lacking: do not unwisely grasp those negative things with your feelings. Instead oppose the negative things and support the positive things. That's it.)

And please believe me when I say that this perspective is in fact just one version of the traditional Finnish speaking culture of Finland, even though propably most Finns would not recognize it since I have chosen the terms and the perspectives differently from the usual. 
In my opinion and in the opinion of many other Finns too Finland has many really excellent solutions to offer to the world and so should have the role of leading the world toward good that Sweden nowadays has. Swedish culture is much less convinced about its own "finery" and is needlessly malicious under the surface. Compared to that Finland has lots of sincerely more worthy things to offer - without selling any drawbacks as a part of the deal like Sweden does. (The Swedish demand you to trust the Swedish culture instead of your own understanding, Finland respects the understanding of each and offers just thoughts for support, so you can "buy" just a part of the whole bunch of ideas.) It is just that our traditional ways of expression are too modest and self-critical to the extreme in our culture's endless search for true objectivity and great trustworthiness in offering the best alternatives. We always trust that you will see the value of our ways yourself (that's how we treat everyone) because that's the way that you can be surest about them and that's the most fair way to treat you - but of course you won't see if you cannot even get to know our culture. Good life for all fairly is our goal - realistically in the modern world. That all in the world would be happy and free, deciding themselves about their own lives is the common dream of us Finnish speaking Finns. The following of the behavioral rule "Live and let others live." that we all respect and which we also demand others to respect quarantees that there is no room for evil deeds in this - please think this through with examples: otherwise it may be difficult to see.
There is a big difference between the Finnsih speraking Finnish way in which everyone lives in a way which arises straight from one's heart and the culture is just a common expression of this, spread by communication and sharing of thoughts, and the Swedish ways where a predetermined outer form determines the allowed behaviour of each, often supressing what people really are and causes so maliciousness and so more supressing of valuable things. The Finnish ways really work: if each one is demanded to follow them there is no fear of evil running free. And the way to get the people to follow them, is to just tell to them of the possibility of following them and of the benefits and other good sides of them and to let them choose freely. It is a pity that there is not more of this communication between cultures so that the Finnish culture would spread. Often the looks of Finns are too rational - that amount of rationality is explained by the excellent motivational ground of Finns and by our unusually good ability in holistic thinking which in my opinion can connect to our language and to our valuing of nature. 
Would it help if people knew that sexuality here us free: each one is allowed to choose just the partner that they want to. As people behave responsibly, there are no drawbacks in this. And since there is no role play, there are much much fewer forced kind of sexual encounters than in most other cultures, including the Swedish speaking cultures of Finland and Sweden. So the atmosphere of sexuality is really nice - for all! We here think that the Finnish culture could solve the world's huge problems - just like that if it just would spread like the culture of USA owadays does or even maybe like the culture of Sweden does. And how much easier it would be: just leave people the chance to do things in Finnish ways and tell them in a way understandab le to common sense and feelings why those ways are for their own good and follow their own ideals.
Finland is a very peaceful country where it is difficult to get people to understand that if our country were conquered by others, they would not necessarily immediately adobt our ways - because the distances are too wide, because the ways of adpobting new things are different, because the people in those other countries are not necessarily as free (completely free), because our culture hasn't even this far spread to all over the world like it in our opinion should since it would be good for all and allow the keeping of all the old good sides of all those other cultures. Our Finnish speaking Finnish culture is a free cooperation of all the citizens for better life for all equally in the best ways that we have come to think of. It is a system correctable from all places. The only drawback that we have is that we are not perfect as humans: the systems can reach only our common level but we always keep the ideals as a direction to go to and in our opinion that is the best way to do things - that too is under discussion if anyone wants to challenge it, like everytyhing is, by not likely to change as long as we all agree about it straight from our heart. The work motivation in Finland is very high: so much we agree with the ways of our society and so the standard of living in Finalnd is unusually high. The amount of corruption in Finland is the lowest in the world and the crime rates low. The paradise movement idea, is our common tune. Our views are typically all human but of course to some extend coloured by our own culture.

We Finns think that it would be for the good of all if the Finnish speaking Finnish culture had a dominating role in the world. The problem maybe is not Sweden but the fear of honesty of many people from the other cultures. The Finnish culture does respect honesty very much but still most Finns lie outrageously, much like is the reputation of Arabs - while Arabs maybe lie even more. So I guess that the honesty demanded by the Finnish culture would not be too much for anyone. It just helps to arrange things to everybody's benefit. I myself am honest, really. But you do not need to believe on my word alone: you can check my thoughts here and see if you agree.

According to these calculations it would pay well to invest a lot in supporting the traditional Finnish speaking Finnish culture with its moral.

It may be that the too tense and cruel atmosphere of market economies has to do with the too tense and cruel cultures of the countries (Sweden and Japan have rigid social codes which give too little room for the individuals) which serve as model economies. It would be better to choose the traditional Finnish speaking main culture of Finalnd with its values to be a model culture in how to live with a market economy. The choices of the Finnish speaking main culture of Finland are on rational grounds that fit together with the market economy - unlike the tradition based rigid forms of the cultures of Sweden and Japan. If one looks at the soul of the Finnish speaking culture of Finland, it is very positive to happy life and extremely moral: one that could solve the world's greatest problems at the same time as offering economical prosperity, stability and true enjoyable freedom of individuals and groups in a very peaceful way. This is the dream of the Finnish speaking Finnish culture because in its excellent caring moral it wishes the best for all the world: all the good things that we here understand and enjoy, while needing to give up none of your own good sides - replacing them with even better (if one can find from anywhere in the world) would be good though...
One example of the Finnish way to conceive things is that one places weight on what one can get with money and not on money itself. That makes sense objectivily looking and makes people much more motivated while increasing their understanding of what matters in the world.

The Finnish speaking main culture of Finland values personal estimates of things, so the whole culture and society structure have been approved by some five million unusually able objectively thinking individuals on their own.
Sometimes it is difficult for the outsiders to observe the Finnish ways and values, since those are based on the personal estimates of each and people from other cultures often have the idea that their own understanding should be supressed by some rigid rule of conventional ways and the understanding of those in power. Besides, the looks of Finns may lie because the Swedish speaking Finns are mixed with the main culture and have a different, to foreigners more familiar social position centered and outer looks oriented way of doing things than the actual Finns. (The Swedish speaking ones get their cultural features from Sweden.) The Finnish speaking Finns like to build all things on true ground - that's what one is motivated to if one is free to follow one's own choises in life, and that ought to be, theoretically estimatedly, the economically best alternative too.
Finland shouls not grant Sweden the right to claim that it is like Finland in what comes to its culture or to be anything else than what it really is like. Otherwise things go ashtray. Each country should be treated according to what its culture is like. In regard of Sweden one should mention also the bad, evil sides of the Swedish culture and its attitude toward other nations and cultures which differs greatly from the very moral globally responsible and even loving Finnish culture. If one is not honest about these things, one is misleading people very badly - so very many are mislead to follow Sweden - and damaging, maybe even badly, both one's own country and the other countries of the world as well.
Sweden has long been rich. Finland has started from a poor beginning and ended up being one of the countries with a highest standard of living in the world. So what kind charachteristics in a culture create economical wealth? Sweden being rich, it has been typical to respect Sweden for that without querstioning its cultural  characteristics, without counting the benefits and losses they create compared to for example the Finnish speaking culture of Finalnd. For example the typically Swedish sin of maliciousness prevents full cooperation which is a way to gain wealth. And where malicousness prevents full justice, things do not get treated according to what they are like and so one does not become as rich as one otherwise could become. This contrasts to the Finnish rule "Honour those who truly deserve respect." And the freedom and the good will born from the Finnish rule "Live and let others live!" are a good ground for cooperation. In my opinion one should examine cultural charachte5rstics objectively and copy only those which it is good to copy and not harmful, economically or otherwise. The Finnish culture is on strong rational grounds while the Swedish culture is more arbitrary. 

OUR FEELINGS GUIDE US 
TOWARD THE BEST ALTERNATIVE 
IN THE TOUGH WORLD

The evolution found the strongest and safest, the best arrangement in every way in the tough competition. Term that "the completely healthy world". Suppose that feelings were created after that or at the same time or adabted to the thus found best choise: the task of feelings is to guide us toward that best choise, toward the health of the world. So what feelings guide us toward, needs to be the best choise in the tough world, the choise that will win in practise - not only because our feelings wish so but because of its "every" feature! On the other hand, what will win in the tough world, is the healthy world and that is a global paradise in our eyes!

MY TWO EARLIER BOOKS BACK UP THE THOUGHTS IN THIS BOOK

Please, if you still doubt the validity of these thoughts, read my two earlier books which are available in the interne: one about the beneficiality of excellent moral from the pure power-benefit point of view, and another one about the rationality of feelings and instincts in the light of the theory of evolution - in the tough modern world. See www.createspace.com for finding the books. 

My first self-published book: Power Politics Leads To Excellent Moral

which is of the hard rationality of moral, and

My second self-published book: Hard Rationality of Feelings and Instincts

which is of the hard rationality of feelings, which is somewhat lighter to read (a more pleasant subject).

Please, if you find these thoughts interesting, advertise my books or the ideas in them, so that others too will get to know them.

Please note that you should not doubt things which are too complicated for your own understanding. Follow the truths that you can understand and don't waste time destroying already existing answers which bring the world toward good. But if you can think things through by yourself, please check these thoughts yourself too!

You might be interested in what kind of thinking I have used. The idea is the following but I am not sure whether you can follow it through - see my book Hard Rationality of Feelings and Instincts for the rationality of feelings. So I start with an atmosphere: an atmosphere of a landscape of things. Then I use my sense of sight to get objective proportions to the atmosphere & to the landscape, and use my feelings, the feelings in the atmosphere to obtain an understanding of the meaningfulness of those phenomena to life and a philosophical kind of view to their role in the world. This is an objective holistic view of the situation. The phenomena get their areas of apperarance from the sensed reality and then I just classify them according to the scientifical picture of the world which together with objectivity at large give the phenomena their proportions, areas that they affect and their relationships, in the world at large forming so a mechanical kind of holistic view of the phenomena and of the whole world. It is essential here to use a holistic view of the world!

THE RATIONALITY OF FEELINGS
Feelings help us to answer needs, and answering needs keeps us healthy.
If something is fully according to emotions, it is well suited for life. But if there is something lacking, it causes negative emotions, so that we would know to fix taht shortcoming away.
If you do not see your emotions this way rational, you are propably making some thought errors, for example that of not using a holistic view of the world and remembering that the health of the society and the health of the world at large are good for yourself too. Or then you lie to yourself because of social position, imagination or a lack of trust in feelings, etc. Or then you think in words, which offer a very narrow fragmented view of the world instead of the single holistic view that is the most efficient way to think and natural to humans.

THINKING OBJECTIVELY BY STARTING FROM FEELINGS
So if you have a holistic view of the world, you can start from any feeling and see what phenomenom in the world it concerns and what are the structural parts of the world whose health it tries to safeguard.

A PROBLEM

Here are answers to many of the major questions that interest people - as objectively as is ever possible for one single capable person. Why bothers no-one to take it seriously? I am very intelligent, yes, that is why my thoughts go quite quickly and need translating to the pace of an average (academical?) individual or community. Still, that ought not lessen the value of my answers here. The only problem is that my thoughts are quite theoretical and the practical solutions involving social complications thought only part of the way, according to my own social abilities and general knowledge of the world (which is far from good enough). Still, my thoughts are true, they offer new answers and insight into the widely varied phenomena that I handle. As such they are extremely valuable and ought to be taken into account just like one listens to the thoughts of many established academical thinkers (philosophers). I am academically educated too: I have those good sides in my thinking. Where my thoughts and style differ from the academical, I have tried to rise above the ordinary academical level of expertice, uniting all the viewpoints that I have heard of to one single holistic view, using all the time all the criterions for objectivity, essentiality and skill that I have heard of. So my thoughts differ from the ordinary, yes, but for a good reason. I am not neglecting the ordinary academical level of handling things. I am just too familiar with it, so I pass through it in a fraction of a second and continue handling more difficult things, things of greater importance in the world!

One ought to choose important things so that they lead the world toward good. That is the principle according to which they ought to be chosen. That could mean that this perspective of mine should - soon? - get a leading role in how to arrange things in the largest scale and in making tough decisions - completely morally and in harmony with happy life & feelings.
I am somewhat horrified by this, since it is so hard to achieve and a really big role to get. But of course one does not do this kind of big things alone - everything is done by many many highly capable individuals. Still, I do not know whether I am up to the task: for example, what would be the first step for me to take? Is there anything that I need to do in addition to what I have already done?!??!!

USE A HOLISTIC VIEW!

The difference is that where ordinary thgoughts use some partial perspective, say that of an individual soldier of a certain war, I use a holistic perspective of the whole wolrd and of the human nature.
So where ordinary things start from the level of daily life and arrive at the complexity of the nearest environment, my thoughts start with easy sure divisions in the whole world, like natural or artificial, healthy or broken, the best possible or clearly something less, and an easy model of what the whole world is like (all biological beings are by their nature parts of the biosphere + the nature of all biological beings is a product of the evolution), arriving so at truths whose areas of validity are very large indeed and which can be proven true both by theoretical means and by comparing to one's life in practise.

The difference between ordinary non-objective selfishness and my view on true selfishness is that the ordinary "selfish" person thinks of himself/herself as separate of the rest of the world and thinks that his/her own good is equal to something which depends only on himself/herself, without the state of the world affecting it at all. My view is that selfishness means reaching for the best possible fate for yourself WHILE taking into account also the rest of the world and how it affects your own good. So where the ordinary "selfish" person manoveurs in the world without regard for how those maneuvers affect the world and via that his/her own good, my view on selfishness means paying mostly attention to the world at large, reaching for the best possible fate for oneself via affecting just the rests of the world and one's relationship to it. The rest of the world is such an enermous factor in our lives, that one ought not neglect it!

Why do I insist on using a holistic view when many others bother to use only a partial view of things? The one using a partial view is like one travelling with a tiny lantern in darkness in an unfamaliar district where he can never know what is behind the next corner. On the other hand, the one using a holistic view is like one watching the whole landscape from a hilltop from where she can know most of the main features of where she is going. So a holistic view is much better and it is also easy, like you can see if you read the end part of my first book.

The whole is huge. It affects your life enermously: it is your whole living environment with social relationships as a part of it. So what the whole is like matters enermously to you. Each time that you think of some phenomenom, think what such phenomena mean to the whole: see them as building blocks of and as structures of the whole. Like: with this kind of building block with this variation from place to place, from time to time, you get a whole that is structured this way. From that you know at least these things of the whole. Like: naturality -> natural living conditions -> health and happiness; artificialities -> not suited to base one's whole life upon them.

ATTENTION: I am not doing any thinking work to produce these thoughts, I am just communicating, going through my old picture of the world in simple ways. So if you have something to ask, please write to me and ask it straight ahead, even if you yourslef are not / are an expert in the subject who isn't / is supposed to know these things that interest you!

Maybe I should add a word or two about the thinking type to use in these thoughts of mine:
Use a holistic picture of the world like at my page /thinking.html Use school like /scientifical holistic picture of the world connected to your ordinary experienced picture of the world. So that when I refer to something, you look at it in your picture of the whole, seeing it, its role, its relationship to other things etc. For example "Human values -> health -> working ability" translates to: " When we care for people, answering their needs (= following human values), they stay healthy. Healthy people work well: they are fit - and also motivated if we allow them room to live freely according to their nature like human values allow for them and for others."

Why does a holistic view create simplicity to important matters while a partial view leads to an enermous complexity and confusion? This is the same point as in navigation: if you first look at the landscape, then observe where your path goes in thgat landscape and what it is like to travel, you already know just about everything that you need to know. But if you first look at your feet and then every now and then glance at the nearest environment, you do a lot more work but gather much less knowledge of where you are and where are you going. Consequently you get lost much more easily. A single good holistic view can do the same work for you as tens or hundreds of glances around yourself, so a holistic view is much easier to use and to form than a bunch of partial views. 

SUMMARY

Divide the world to two components: how humans and other living beings will be treated, and what are the NEEDS of using the existing technology. Technology develops as time passes, so there is no fixed answer to what the combination of these two components will be. So there will be TWO DIRECTIONS to aim at: the global paradise of a healthy natural world, and the demands of the efficient use of technology. In what comes to the working ability of humans, these two directions are the same. But in what comes to the need for roads, factories, computer networks etc., these two differ. Some tens of years ago computers were of the size of houses, now portable versions are common. So maybe the demands of technology get somewhat smaller as the time passes: technology is adabtable, humans are not. Still, the end result propably isn't as ideal for humans as the world wide paradise without any technology. It will be something in between: propably the buildings and technology get adabted to the natural needs of humans, since as the time passes, many more options are possible than at the beginning of the era of technology.

I do not think of this paradise as a fixed kind of end result. Instead I think of it as a direction to develop into, starting from our present day situation. Both the adabtation of machines via their development to the requirements of humans and the development of technology to smaller and more efficient lead to smaller requirements for the use of technology. But how small will they become as the time passes, that I do not know!
But at first I think that the ways of living can be changed toward more healthy and natural just by changing our view on what is a good way to arrange things because that too determines a lot.

SOURCES

Referencies and sources: none. These are thoughts that I have thought on my own, mainly as a child when I had read nothing except the compulsory school books and dozens of children's story books. But of course I had academical parents which bought me a scientifical picture of the world, which like the teaching in the school included the basics of the theory of the evolution. And then there is the Finnish speaking Finnish culture which includes a rational moral which is always presupposed. My own thinking is characterised by its thorough quest for objectivity in everything, but not with any great insight into anything. I kind of apply all that I know to the extreme: all the time to everthing, thinking all things as far as I can with my thinking ability and as sure as I can, startingfrom an ordinary school like or academical picture of the world with a knowledge of the scientifical method: make experiments or observations, deduct from them and test the thus formed hypothesies by further independent observations. This results in very wide areas of application for some trustworthy basic truths, continual holistic point of view to everything and the questioning of the meaningfulness of each thing done. Last but not least: I am a woman, so I get well along with feelings without being confused about them. 

THE POLITICAL CLASSIFICATION OF THESE THOUGHTS
These thoughts should of course be classified according to what they suggest that one should support, i.e. according to their end results which are LEFTIST (SOCIALISTS and DEMOCRATS, not communist) or GREEN (ENVIRONMENTALIST). And not by their starting points which seem to be at least partly from the extreme right wing. 
For the very religious these could be religious thoughts, emphasising the role of God's creation work and of good universal moral and healthy ways of living.

CHRISTIAN RELIGION AND GAIA: EDEN WINS

Gaia is the paradise at the beginning of time: Eden. Gaia is the world the way that God created it: a nature paradise, Eden, the whole biosphere, i.e. all the created living beings and their environment, in the state of complete health and naturality.

GOD CREATED A PERFECT WORLD
God in his great wisdom created a perfect world: whatever you do, it is wisest to do it the way that God intentioned human animals to function, that brings the best result. Anything else leads ashtray, is a much less efficient and much less pleasant way to do things and brings much less understanding than the natural ways to do things and to live.

EDEN EQUALS GAIA
At the beginning of time, there was Eden. It is the same as Gaia, except that Gaia mentions the interconnectedness of things and love while Eden mentions God and belief in God. So Gaia goes well with the perspective of these pages and my two books: just these scientifical kind of facts I want to describe. But what I say about Gaia, applies to Eden too. So Eden is the victorious arrangement. Our true nature is still connected to Eden. Eden is the way to understand us.

GOD'S PARADISE
God in his great wisdom created a perfect world. It is the best possible also at these times of modern competition when there is in the world an element that God didn't create: the man-made artificialities which confuse our nature and make us more stupid than what we would otherwise be. Understanding this is our road to the paradise in the end of time: by a free competition of all the options we could be led back to healthy natural ways of living in a healthy natural living environment: the world and our way of living just like God intended them to be like. This is a realistical possibility: that is why I seek to use all the possible points of view, so as to enable people to add this piece of wisdom to their own view too. This could also be a way to prove God's infinite wisdom which was inherent in her (God being above our concepts of manly and womanly, I take God capable of both and since these modern times need especially the upkeeping and nurturing aspects of God, I use the feminine here) creation work.

CREATIONISM
The deductions on these pages and in my two books are based on the theory of evolution. What is God created the living beings without evolution?
It makes sense to guess that God created well functioning thoroughly thought of beings whose parts fit well together and support each other, like makes sense from the practical point of view. For such beings all of these results apply.

THE AGES OLD UNDERWATER WORLD

When we see a glimpse of a fish in a lake, river or the sea, we see a glimpse of an ages old underwater world. While our own world has changed enermously and lacks traditions, the underwater world of the fishes has stayed uncghanged. While the world of the birds that we see flying past, has changed quite rapidly, even though it is still quite much intact in some respects, and while our own world has changed enermously, the world of the fishes and other underwater creatures has stayed unchanged.

What would life be like for us had we lived in another age an entirely another kind of life – that can we see when we look at the fishes’ world of unbroken tradition. What was life like in the past in the age before cities and technology came to change our ways of living, our world. What is life still like for the fishes! What will we all return to, when our momentary insanity vanishes and we return to our place in the nature.

The Dancing Meadow
THE DANCING MEADOW

In insects’ world the nature is still intact, undisturbed by human action. So when we, their giants, wander to a meadow, we meet life in its natural undisturbed form.
When the flying insects dance past us, we can see human communication in its natural form, since we all animals share the same natural language of gestures, expressions, voice, movement and ways of action. The beauty of that dance teaches us natural movement, healthy emotionality and healthy sociality. It can also be an expression of superb moral: of a flourishing world in harmony, where plants and flying insects coexist in a some kind of “symbiosis”. We can take that beauty as a model of suberb health for ourselves, so getting a gift from the fairies of the meadow, from our friends insects.

MORAL
=
doing meaningful things and
living a healthy happy life!

What is at the heart of each human being, is a wish for a better life. What is at the heart of each human society, is a wish for a better life. What we all long for, what we dream about, what scares us, all comes to the one and same thing: what life is like, i.e. how our all kinds of needs are met. If we could have a better idea of what a paradise is like, we would have a map to a better life, and if paradise really is the winning option in the modern competition, all the others would be willing to choose a paradise too. These texts aim to give more room for life, to lead to better ways of living, to a life according to feelings, a full life, a way of life, which is a paradise in fact.

LIFE IS A SONG

It is our nature to see life as a song, as a great panorama of music. That's why we love music: its sound is in our nature, the natural stimuli that we used to hear all the time.
In the natural life in a natural environment a long time ago we were immersed in beauty, much like we can admire the sight of nature even nowadays. But then, a long time ago, it was every side of our life that was so beautiful.
Like with the fracturelessness of nature, beauty is a charachteristic of full health. And since the healthies is the most well functioning, the natural world full of the beauty of full health is the source of miracles in the eyes of us who are used to the fractured world with all the artificialities. The untouched human nature is so well functioning in every respect that it looks miraculous in our eyes. So it is also with our perception of life as a song: it is natural perception about the essentails of human life, about the well funcrtioning and healthy and healthily beautiful in our lives. Whenever we use a machine and it makes a KRAAH sound, we know that we have made something wrong. It is the same with humans. And when our senses sing, we know that we have done everything right!

Dance is at the core of being.

Life Is A Song

The best way for objective thinking is to think by atmospheres.
They unify a pictorial objective holistic view with the wisdom of feelings.
Each observation is a sensation, an atmosphere tone.
The light coloured atmosphre tones we can express by high notes.
The darker and more down-to-earth atmopshres we can express as low notes.
Thus our observations form a song.

When we act, we have an emotional motivation for it.
That motivation is a melody.
And action according to it is dance.
This dance appears to be dance in its basic form.

To live!
Means to sense, to react and to act in the world, in life!
Thus natural music, the song of our life and the natural dance of natural action
are at the core of what it means to be human!

DANCE OF THE WILD BUTTERFLIES
Dance of the butterflies

...

Dance according to your soul is the natural basic form of all action. 
Your soul tells you what you ought to do in the tough tough world, 
your feelings command you to act according to your soul and 
your action motivated by your feelings is dance in its natural basic form: 
either practical action or something analogious to it in your mind only, 
in the rhythm of the melody formed by your motivational feelings and sensations.

K. Gibran (a famous writer from Lebanon):
" I have chosen both the joys of this world and peace in the world to come. 
Because I feel in my heart that the Upmost Poet wrote just one poem and its structure is perfect."

I have reached 
the most beautiful 
things that I know of, 
made them real possibilities
and this world wide,
starting from an as cynical point of view as I can imagine 
i.e. from the completely value-free competition for power and benefit, 
and from all the nicer points of view that I know of.

If things are even worse, i.e. evil ruling without other goals than just destruction and torture, we can use the value-free competition to put the more moral ones, our own side into power, to let the global paradise win. 
I have succeeded in this. I can even prove it for computers governing instead of living beings and for the case that no material world exists and we are just spirits or some kind of intelligent constructions run inside a huge computer brain (The beneficality of the optimised solution to the whole does not demand that you would have been planned and especially fitted to that kind of whole by the evolution or by intelligent planning.). 

I do not know what more I could do, 
the rest is
up to you!

At least spread the view that these objective grounds for a global final paradise exist!

(Inform others also that my two earlier books contain more  grounds for supporting good in the tough world.)

‘ ‘ ‘ ‘ ‘

No question is so big as to not to be worth thinking over by yourself. 
On the contrary: just the biggest questions should be thought over by all, all by themselves, 
so as to find lots of new answers.

There is nothing special to these thoughts of mine. They are just unusually straightforward. Because I am extremely skilled in holistic objective thinking, I do not stumble to the practical diffficulties that stop most from thinking by themselves along these lines. For example I find the concept of health easy to generalize to include also artificial things. I am also very holistic in my thinking, so I know how to generalize everyday concepts like health so that one can handle huge interconnected systems with them.

THE END PARADISE...
