THE POWER OF A PREMISE, THE HYPE OF A HUNCH

THE PREVALENT ARRANT PREMISE OF A 2 DIMENSIONAL THINKING PERSPECTIVE

A thought can become an hunch, a hunch can spawn an idea, an idea infers a premise, and the premise forms theory.  Theory is simply a plausible or scientifically accepted principle used to explain phenomena we cannot define.  The dialectic art of investigating the "truth of opinions" allows everyone to have a point of view.  It examines the discourse between different viewpoints on a subject in an effort to find and establish truth through reasoning.  The "dialectic method" only works if the parties involved are sincerely "truth seekers" rather then "right fighters." The structure of a dialectic may resemble a debate but it refrains from subjective emotional appeal or disparaging comments. The intent of the dialogue is to investigate and question rather than condemn.  It is this contradiction of polarized but interrelated ideas which comprise the three factors for developing one conclusion. This method of resolving contradictions develops in three stages  A thesis, or first assumption put forth as an unproven premise; an antithesis, to negate the hypothetical claim; and a synthesis to resolve the tension or differences between the two.  A dialectic conversation differs from the method used in didactic instruction where one side expressly teaches the other.  The dialectic method helps us to apply the premise of theory to reality.  Reality will always fits into truth as long as we consciously keep ourselves from altering truth to fit within reality.  The way in which we approach, consider or view a matter represents the processes we use.  Our frame of reference, that authoritative rational behind our thinking, suggests that our assumptions and the conclusions derived from them are accurate.  Our best analysis relies on our biased opinions we make judgment from.  Ultimately we believe that our perspective represents the proper viewpoint necessary to see a matter in the way it is suppose to be seen.  Somehow this is the premise for our basic reasoning.  Point of views can be expressed in the "first(I),""second(You)"  or the "third (we)"person" context.  However there is an invisible "fourth person" context called "it's." "It's" is the de facto ultimate authority we legally, morally and logically authorize both individually and collectively as judge.  When we say it's not right or that's the way it's done, we imply the premise of authority from the illusive fourth person.  A premise denotes an expectation. If Life is empty and meaningless we expect nothing out of it.  If life has meaning we expect it to be in it's fulfillment.  Life is not a problem to be solved. It's a reality to be experienced, or so they say.  Today, the terms "It's" and "they" are the scapegoats for generalized blame. Adopting the premise that says "It's their fault" and "we" are not responsible does not exonerate us.  Whenever we apply a "premise" without proof it is presumptuous.  "We" are now the new "they."

A premise is a statement, a by-product of both logical  reasonable infrastructure "propositions," that creates a single conclusive claim "a proposition". The conclusion is justified by truth table style rules that apply across multiple aspects of life, "theory."  Most of what we personally regard to be true or factual was most likely derived as a premise from interpreted theory.  

A factual conclusion is a statement that is consistent with reality and can be principally proven with present evidence. Facts are indisputable, obvious, undeniable, unassailable and unquestionable. Conclusions are judgments or decisions derived from available data that utilizes reasoning.

A premise becomes conclusive when facts make it true. When a premise is true the properly derived conclusion is also true.  A premise becomes a belief when we make it true in our minds.  A belief taught from a premise may be fanatical but not necessarily true.

Evaluate each statement below, decide if it true or not and label it  as a premise or conclusive remark

We should rise to the occasion. (Accomplishment over adversity)
Necessity is the mother of invention. (Independent allies)
​Only God can judge me. (questionable accountability)
I hope to break even. (a calculated gamble)
​Time heals all pain (longevity & feelings)
It was meant to be. (destiny)

 EXPANDING THE DiMENSIONS OF OUR THINKING  PROCESS

As a practice we define and measure life by its dimensions.  Dimensions are the familiar measurable elements used to size and/or define some aspect of capacity.  Most of us were taught, thereby learned and accordingly practice duality through our perspective of life.  Duality simply defined is the recognition of the "state"of two (in a sense) opposite but yet related attributes in our reasoning.  Win/lose, up/down, good/bad, right/wrong and God/Satan comparisons predominately influence the  way we relate our experiences.  At bare minimum the Chinese "Ying Yang" philosophy expresses these opposites cooperatively, but our thinking tends to perceive them competitively.  Although we generally think within two dimensions most of us acknowledge a three dimensional existence and question the existence of a fourth.

The gradual acceptance of scientific discoveries, innovations and their applications have allowed new technologies to flourish in spite of our stagnant and traditional ways of thinking.  After understanding the fundamental aspects of our existence it is up to us to expand our perspectives and apply them.  In physics, dimensional analysis is one of the first concepts taught to explain any phenomena beyond its simplest physical attributes, entities or quantities.   By dividing these characteristics into two sections we can better define them as "primary or fundamental" and "secondary or derived" characteristics. Secondary derivatives are obtained from the combination and/or interaction of two or more "primary attributes."  For example "speed" a secondary derivative of "time and length" primary entities, really has three aspects or parts to it.  Speed's three dimensions result from two quantities combined together to form a third unique derivative.  This new derivation possesses the attributes of both its parents and can expand beyond the limits of any portion of its individual parts. Hence speed creates an even newer derivative that we call"velocity."  When speed is applied to direction "velocity" results.  As we can now deduce; without "time, length, speed and direction" there is no such thing as "velocity."  Derivatives are formed through the creative process of combinations.  Applying these principles to the formation of thought implies that our thinking should  advance both cumulatively and dimension-ally.  We often witness the power of cumulative prowess applied during quiz shows and exhibited by our higher IQ counterparts like Einstein, Stephen Hawkins and other intellectual giants.  It is difficult to be a witness to anything we are not aware of.  We may know that something is occurring but not be mindful of exactly what it is.  The dimensional side of "thoughts power" is initially perceived through our imagination.  Dimensional thinking is counter-intuitive.  In that "three and four dimensional expressions" are not plainly evident in two dimensional environments, we are blind to them. The teaching about things of spirit are not mystical, they just aren't properly taught.  Whenever we fail to develop our sensory faculties simultaneously with our intellectual faculties we are predisposed to experience an imbalance in life.  Imagination is an unlimited intellectual faculty that transcends the physical tangible plain of our existence.  Imagination has a visionary property that can endure torture, neutralize fear, connect with faith and create hope. The history of technological advances is a testament to the fact that the figments of our imaginations do materialize. We must come to the Realization that our intellectual and sensory facilities are designed to function in a cohesive cooperative and codependent manner.  Imagination goes beyond our ability to think, it also has the power to shape and form thought.  The intangible combination of cumulative & dimensional thinking affect how and what the imagination creates or gives expression to.  We now live in a time of shared thought and ideas. This is an age access to radical attitudes.   The spread of information has aroused imaginations that are prone to "outside of the box thinking."  When we begin to believe as we imagine, our behavior of mind changes at an intangibly invisible level where dreams live.  And when Imagination connects with consciousness contagious ideas develop that may be inconsistent with our original premise.
