Present Navigation: Orienting in a One-Time-Forward Lifetime
What Is Present Navigation?
Present Navigation is the essential capacity provided by the Mi-iMind framework. It enables individuals to skilfully orient themselves in the present of their one-time-forward lifetime, engaging with emergent knowledge flows as they arise. This capacity transforms awareness into action, fostering wise adaptation and ideal attitudes.
The Interdependent Present
The "i" in Me-Mind does not arise in a vacuum. Instead, it joins an already dynamic, interdependent universe. This interdependence shapes the present as a locus of emergence, where chaos organizes into coherence through:
• Sentient Awareness: Immediate, somatic, and emotional responses to stimuli.
• Sapient Awareness: Rational reasoning and reflective understanding that enables complex, adaptive processing.
The Me-Mind serves as the interface for these awareness types, allowing individuals to extract meaning and purpose from the flow of emergent knowledge.
Mapping the Present Terrain
The present is not static. It is a dynamic and ontological space where:
1. Emergence Happens: From the chaotic ground of Euler’s e in the embodied Me, evanescent iStates of awareness arise and dissolve.
2. Knowledge Flows: These iStates enable the processing of information treated as energy, revealing patterns, insights, and understanding.
3. Adaptation Is Possible: Through sapient reasoning and ideal attitudes, the Me-Mind navigates these flows, extracting actionable wisdom.
Tools for Present Navigation
The Mi-iMind framework supplies tools that align with this dynamic reality, including:
1. Reason Reckoning: The rational extraction of understanding from patterns.
2. Ideal Attitudes: Adaptive dispositions that emerge from zero vantage, fostering effortless adaptation.
3. Process Purposes: A shift from static objects of desire to dynamic, ongoing purposes.
Why Orientation Matters
In the present, orientation is not simply a social context or reactive state. It is the foundation of:
• Emergent Knowledge Processing: Engaging with data, information, and knowledge in real time.
• Integration: Aligning sentient and sapient awareness to act coherently.
• Agency: Moving beyond reactive, hoi polloi-bound iStates to embrace the freedom of the EmptiSelf conception.
Present Navigation as a Dynamic Interplay
Emergent knowledge processing is a symphony of:
• Data as Energy: Recognizing information as energy, carrying patterns that reveal the dynamics of sin (and symmetry).
• Evanescent iStates: Time-bound awareness cycles that guide decisions in real-time.
• Ideal Attitudes: The intentional focus and alignment needed to respond to these patterns.
By navigating the present, individuals move toward greater clarity, coherence, and capacity for growth, free from the bindings of I from We.
Key Outcomes of Present Navigation
1. Enhanced Awareness: A heightened ability to perceive and adapt to emergent patterns.
2. Refined Judgement: Developing sound reasoning skills to process complex information.
3. Empowered Agency: Aligning with emergent knowledge flows rather than being bound by reactive dispositions.
A New Compass for the Me-Mind
Present Navigation replaces static, teleological approaches with a dynamic compass for the Me-Mind:
• Locus/Focus: Identifying the coordinates of emergent knowledge in real time.
• Zero Vantage: Creating the empty space necessary for effortless adaptation.
• Continuous Flow: Embracing the ceaseless motion of time forward.
Take Aways
Present Navigation is the skilful art of orienting within the flow of life, engaging with emergent knowledge as it arises. It is both a tool and a practice, enabling individuals to extract wisdom, refine their awareness, and adapt with clarity and intention
