Personal Theory and Works - The Integral Way (ultra-alpha stage; keep away)
1) Attributes, Lines, Stats, Intelligences, Areas, Qualities, Parts, Shealths, Elements, Constitution, Skills?, Talents?, Powers?
Humans can or do change or develop over time. Some areas of development include physically, mentally, spiritually, willpower, financially, relationships and at least 50 other major areas. These qualities eventually need to be clearly defined in a way that is in relation to all the others to create a science of being. What are my deficiencies? What are my strengths? Is this section to be a about my theory of attributes more like my psychograph.
Sources include Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences, Ken Wilber's integral theory, Sri Aurobindo's Integral Yoga, Psychology, Video Games and other stuff.
2) Practices, Injunctions, Tendencies, Obstacles?
training can be done to improve ones attributes through practices such as meditation, prayer, study, gymnastics, writing.
what do they say about me, vision of practices.
3) The Way of Effective Action
The way in which something is done can be far more significant in many cases then the thing itself. To give an example, taking from Zen and Japanese culture, where pride in ones job is so important, an ideal of perfection constantly being held in mind, one works to do ones work with such intention, concentration, pride and perfection which can then become habitually applied to everything in life. In Karma Yoga, work is done as an offering to the Divine, purifying desire and ego and turning oneself into a servant of God, which brings one nearer and nearer until one reaches Identification. Topics will include increase ease, effectiveness, motivation, energy and will, experiencing flow states, working with intention, consequence and intensity/difficulty.
4) Key Concepts or Index of Everything?
practical philosophy; to see how it all fits together and makes sense through different perspectives such as integral theory and integral yoga.
Life as an RPG. Is this section more like my favorite theories self and other? Everything?
5) The Sum of My Works - The Integral Way?

spiritual - study(integral), prayer, meditation, always, offering.
notes on mind/mental/cognitive:
recently have been undergoing what I have been calling a mental storm from I dont knows. this may also relate to the spiritualization of the mind, or dementalization of spirit. theres accompanying it the desire for vision, for the annoyance at the limits of what I think is the lower buddhi. vision is spoke of in status of knowledge, is the buddhis too? if so that is the obvious next point.

Practices
on meditation
what is it? personal or worldly definition. why do it? how to do.
stillness of body, by not moving the body (swallowing, itching, opening eyes) it works to gain mastery the physical body, to purify habits. to see all as brahman (1-2-3 of God), feel divine presence, for aspiration, meditation bench. opening.
on prayer
morning prayer - for strength to do things, vows
night prayer - for gratitude, repentance.
on study (particularly sri aurobindo and the mother)
this is my strongest practice, I have probably spent the most time doing this of any other.
with the recent discovering of words of the mother - II, i have been feeling amazing studying it and transcribing it. transcribing it acts like a way to work through it in a productive beneficial matter. finding letters on yoga - II today added so much more to the endeavour and I realize how long this journey really is.
pushing through tiredness. i have developed this skill with study,
pushing through headaches, have not yet developed this one.
what did i used to study? why? why integral yoga?
why do i study? why is it my go to? why did i teach integral? to learn? to understand? to know what to do? how to do it? why to do it? to know? integral yoga section. integral yoga lessons? what is the result of study?
I had a huge study session recently, of parts 0 and 2. I have a desire to see the synthesis of yoga wholistically. to grasp it as a whole instead of moving haphazardly from piece to piece.
on sun salutations
concentration; often during sets i will look around, rub my hands, whatever it happens to be, i feel this takes away from the potential of the practice, much in the same way that sometimes ill be thinking of something else while doing them. much more ideal will be to concentrate fully on the sun salutations. I only do 12 per day but it is still enough for improvement and challenge.
on gymnastics rings / physical training
only under the perfect conditions, post cardio, pre strength training, determined mindset, can i do an unassisted ring muscle-up, such an intense move. it may be best then, to start with it, then cycle down in intensity till i cant do hopping chinups even. but this way i can keep track easily of my max rep of my most important moves.
determination really is key to such an intense skill. like.. "I AM GOING TO DO A FUCKING MUSCLE UP!! AHHHH SAIYAN SCREAM!!"
writing
records of progress, the website, writing in the past. journal. the journal. evernote. notebooks.

why do?
The Way of Effective Action
intentions; without intentions practices sometimes can be completely unfruitful, whereas with the purist intentions the fruits dont even matter and are that much more fruitful anyways. the highest intention then is karma yoga style and as an offering to God. Mhm
Key Concepts or Index of Everything?
consistency, concentration, determination, states, motivation, acceptance, passion, choice, decision,
love, imagination, hope, rejection, failure, fear, excitement, play, opportunity, questions,
pragmatic philosophy
works contained in here.
so all attributes, practices, works, philosophies, ideas, concepts, everything can probably aid from theory so this is also a theory of everything practical. though everything can used in such way because essence is in all.
see evernote nexus?
consecration
i would like to work on this page so it seems like desire is present but is what is missing a entire consecration? or is it a quietness and opening thats needed? does the desire carry attachment?

"The Path of Works aims at the dedication of every human activity to the supreme Will. It begins by the renunciation of all egoistic aim for our works, all pursuit of action for an interested aim or for the sake of a worldly result. By this renunciation it so purifies the mind and the will that we become easily conscious of the great universal Energy as the true doer of all our actions and the Lord of that Energy as their ruler and director with the individual as only a mask, an excuse, an instrument or, more positively, a conscious centre of action and phenomenal relation. The choice and direction of the act is more and more consciously left to this supreme Will and this universal Energy. To That our works as well as the results of our works are finally abandoned. The object is the release of the soul from its bondage to appearances and to the reaction of phenomenal activities. Karmayoga is used, like the other paths, to lead to liberation from phenomenal existence and a departure into the Supreme. But here too the exclusive result is not inevitable. The end of the path may be, equally, a perception of the divine in all energies, in all happenings, in all activities, and a free and unegoistic participation of the soul in the cosmic action. So followed it will lead to the elevation of all human will and activity to the divine level, its spiritualisation and the justification of the cosmic labour towards freedom, power and perfection in the human being." - Synthesis of Yoga, The Systems of Yoga

Unsorted Anythingness
yet again I ask what it is I am to do.
and i feel like turning to the list isnt the option but rather from somewhere it pours out.
where i find the aspiration. it is like the universal force is gathering the knowledge unto the self and then works to reveal layer by layer its will through me. in a sense.
i feel really like will is almost not part of my path. like it can be almost done without. craziness. I just often forget how glorious the fruits of surrender are, still i may not really know. But if I intuit my state as a 60 year old, or at least my cognitive capacity.
now i want to work on my site, desire being present. i like that I have been in a website wave. it is fascinating what results slowly from them. just like what formed from evernote.
so i desire to work on this page to aid the process of this grand movement to manifest. is that desire an obstacle? or is the issue that the desire is not enough? that all parts need to be onboard. this brings up consecration. where is that discussed? under concepts? for now yes.
