Factual information and Fractural Information

For discussion and thought.

Over the years I have seem so much misinformation and disinformation written and said about, everything ranging from science to the occult and this includes many aspects of life. Much of it is simply misleading and poorly researched and has no foundation or solid factual evidence to back it up. A firm foundation provides us all with a solid system to use and work from in a practical and real world sense. Over the years, history has forged for us a unique record of past experiences, inventions and social structures that we can draw from for use in our everyday lives. I have seen so much of this information over the years simply degraded and injected with misinformation or fantasy. Why has this information changed is due to a number of reasons. The number one reason is in my view and I could be wrong is poor research. This is in mainly and not restricted to either laziness or lack of correct and factual information. One example I can cite is how the Grimoires have changed over the years. Much of the Grimoires now lie in shreds and is pure occult fantasy. Ignorance, being closed-minded and a one sided viewpoint is another reason why misconceptions and misinformation occurs. We also know the religion, politics and social reasons can also be the cause of disinformation. Much of this can be blamed on the media on all levels and how it sometimes twists and conceals the truth. With the inception of the internet, it is a minefield and expanse of information. And everyone has differing points of view and perceptions.

Just to recap and go over a little of what I have already mentioned and add a couple of things. Look at the way information is treated. It is either eroded or made into fantasy such as a myth. There is nothing wrong with myths as long as they are treated as myths. Look at how much fantasy occultism/religion is around these days. Brew me up a healthy dose of realism any day. Give me factual information that I can use in a practical sense in my everyday life. The same applies to groups I see so much rubbish in organizations it simply makes me shake my head and almost sends me batty. In addition is the amount of role players or people that think they are something they are when in fact it is not true. Some may say it is the level of knowledge or experience; still it is those that teach or publish that should get it right the first time.

I much prefer factual information than fractural information any day.

By going around in circles or following the herd ones uniqueness and individuality is not revealed. The world is an oyster of information and knowledge for us to use to our advantage. It is a case of sorting the good from the bad. Remember from a grain of sand it becomes a pearl. Quality information provides us with more merit than quantity data. By questioning and peeling back the layers until the facts and truth are revealed liberation and evolution can be achieved.

Basically what I am saying is never take anything on face value always answer a question with a question until the truth and the facts are revealed.
