perspectives

[sarapr]

I keep finding myself getting hit by the waves of all these different perspectives that I can look at the world from.

It's starting to get so overwhelming that it's almost ridiculous.

So many different things at play in each little facet of the world that you'd think what else can there be but when you expand your vision yet a little bit more, you see that the whole thing was just one small part of sth larger that contains within it many more of that same thing. and if you keep going upper you see that, it was all one thing with only one play all along in a way that everything would even seem totally static with no change or movement containing in it every possible play that there could be which would be seemingly incomprehensible.   

So among all that, a big sort of confusion happens for the way you want to lead your life and kinda feeling sad about how much you'd miss out on inevitably cause you only have so much time as a blink of an eye in this life. ‌  

How do you deal with that? If it even needs dealing with 

[Joseph Maynor]

Focus on creating, developing, and evolving your Perspective by being open to influence from other Perspectives.  But realize that your Perspective is all you really have.

The idea that all perspectives are a fragment of a larger perspective is a stepping stone to realizing that there are perspectives that are completely disjoint. When you exhaust your top-level perspective, you will be able to make those discontinuous jumps.

It will get a lot more confusing up until then, but you will settle in neutrality eventually.
Neutrality in the sense of divine indifference. Of an objective, impersonal, perspective of equivalence of all perspectives.

Lots of weird things start to happen here, but it is the most wonderful place of all (counter-intuitively).
You are becoming more conscious, don't worry. Try to get comfortable in the Unknown, but without rejecting the Known.
The Known needs to be exhausted, not rejected. It needs to naturally become uninteresting to you.

When this happens, I put down my books and videos.

And I go outside or go socialize. Creating something is also good. You need to take action steps. 

Your brain is saying "I have eaten enough. Can you stop feeding me for a bit?".

You can always go back to learning more once your brain has rested.
