Values, Outlook on Life and Worldview

We fear death because we don’t understand the soul.

We fear loneliness because we don’t understand ourselves.

When life feels meaningless, we have lost our way,

When we long for freedom, our hearts are imprisoned in the cage of the mind…

– MiLOVE

In the early hours of a few days ago, around 3 o’clock, I woke up from a dream, and phrases like “worldview,” “philosophy of life,” “values,” and related images kept floating in my mind. Subconsciously, I knew that it was my guiding spirit reminding me to contemplate and share topics related to these concepts. At that moment, my sleepiness vanished, so I jumped out of bed, quickly brewed a pot of coffee, and started savoring its rich flavor while searching for articles on these topics through Google.

As expected, there were numerous articles online, but some of them were quite intriguing yet far from my own understanding. I found myself deeply immersed in contemplation… How can I integrate divine wisdom and knowledge into the topics of “worldview, values, and philosophy of life” that resonate with domestic readers? How can I express and share my own insights appropriately?

As my thoughts delved deeper, this wisdom beyond my scope of knowledge slowly unfolded in my mind, and with the rhythmic sound of keyboard typing, they were gradually being presented as words for readers to behold, meticulously recorded in my notebook document…though the night is deep, the passion within me is strong.

“Three Perspectives” – Chinese Characteristics

When people talk about their worldview, values, and outlook on life, you immediately realize that it is a term with Chinese characteristics. In Western society, there are few academic articles that specifically study or discuss the concept of “Three Perspectives”. There is a basic consensus in philosophy regarding One’s outlook on life and values, while the concept of a cosmic perspective has been the subject of endless debates in philosophy, science, and Metaphysics. Without a clear cosmic perspective as a foundation for discussing One’s worldview, the result is likely to be subjective. This is not difficult to understand because the formation of ideologies is closely related to a person’s place of birth, era, and family. Additionally, beliefs, education, and social background play important roles in shaping ideologies. An individual’s personality and capacity for independent thinking can also change their patterns of thought and ideology.

Although everyone’s ideologies may have similarities or even commonalities, the levels of consciousness vary greatly from person to person. This is because the essence of a person is not simply a physical body with a similar appearance but a mind/body/Spirit Complex. The meaning of life lies in recognizing, understanding, and transcending oneself, rather than comparing who is superior. Therefore, there is no comparability between individuals’ “Three Perspectives” if One truly understands the essence of human beings.

When discussing worldviews, values, and outlooks on life, it is inevitable to explore topics such as cosmic perspectives and beliefs. Here are my insights and sharing on “Three Perspectives,” including cosmic perspectives, beliefs, ideologies, and related topics.

What is Ideology?

We can understand ideology as the general cognition and understanding of things by individuals or collectives. It encompasses the patterns of thinking or consciousness formed by perception, observation, sensation, ideas, thoughts, values, and so on. Ideology can be understood as specific modes or content of thinking that are characteristic of individuals, groups, or cultures. It may be a conceptual framework, particularly concerning human life or culture. Thus, it can constitute a comprehensive set of principles, theories, and goals for social and political programs.

Ideology is part of the broader concept of consciousness. Consciousness has seven levels, and each level contains seven sub-levels… and so on, indefinitely.

The Differences and Relationships Between Worldview, Life Philosophy, and Values.

From the author’s perspective, worldview refers to an individual’s subjective concepts and understanding of the environment (universe, world, and region) with different focuses. Life philosophy reflects a person’s contemplation on the meaning of life or existence and their attitude toward living. Values, on the other hand, pertain to an individual’s cognitive understanding of the essence, composition, and standards of value, such as judgments on goodness or badness, right or wrong, benefits or drawbacks, and morality of things. The concept of value is rich and diverse, primarily encompassing both material and spiritual values.

Consciousness is reflected in an individual’s values, life philosophy, and worldview. The aforementioned “three perspectives” are generally subjective concepts of an individual, with the exception of an individual’s worldview, particularly the cosmic worldview. Due to various constraints, most people’s cosmic worldview is often artificially implanted or influenced by secular beliefs. The latter two perspectives are not necessarily objective. Conversely, the collective cosmic worldview influences universal values, while beliefs or universal values give birth to culture, which in turn influences politics. In other words, the kind of belief One holds incubates a corresponding culture and politics. However, in authoritarian countries, politics can control culture and beliefs in reverse.

Culture and politics are manifestations of values. Belief does not necessarily have to be religious; it can be understood as a form of conviction. The nation represents a regional perspective, while ethnicity represents a cultural perspective.

The consciousness exhibited through the “three perspectives” is just the tip of the iceberg. The part hidden beneath the iceberg or deep-rooted in the consciousness tree is immeasurable and stored consciousness. They can be discovered through the subconscious and unconscious states. The aspect of consciousness is a complex topic that requires a separate discussion.

1. Life Philosophy

Relatively speaking, life philosophy is the most personal. In a broad sense, it refers to people’s fundamental views on life. It primarily encompasses the understanding of the purpose and meaning of life and One’s attitude towards life. Specifically, it includes perspectives on public and private matters, altruism versus self-interest, optimism versus pessimism, honor and disgrace, happiness, and views on life and death. How others perceive you or how you perceive others is not as important as your own life philosophy. A person’s life philosophy is significant because their attitude towards life can influence and even change their life trajectory.

A personal life philosophy is essentially an individual’s process of self-awareness throughout their lifetime. Life philosophy may also be adjusted or changed as a person grows older and gains more experience and knowledge. When a person truly begins to contemplate the purpose of life, the meaning of existence, questions like “Who am I?” and the purpose of this life, they embark on a journey in search of truth. The path to seeking truth may be long, but it is not without rewards.

Life philosophy is also a part of consciousness. The level of consciousness is not necessarily related to factors such as skin color, age, education, wealth, or social status. The difference between facts and truth may be minute, but it can lead to significant discrepancies.

2. Personal and Universal Values

Values refer to a set of criteria that individuals, societies, or groups use to judge and evaluate what is good or bad, right or wrong, and virtuous or immoral, thereby measuring and judging their behavior. Laws and regulations are also derived from these values.

Most people’s personal values are shaped by their families and comparisons. From a young age, parents consciously or unconsciously instill their own values in their children. For example, if a child wants to buy an electric scooter, parents might say that a kick scooter is better and more cost-effective. It is cheaper and also provides exercise. Comparison becomes a tool for forming values.

Throughout your upbringing, whether it’s about eating, dressing, shopping, going to school, or even getting married and having children, your parents directly or indirectly participate in or influence your life. Over time, a person’s values gradually form through unconscious comparisons. It is evident that personal values originate from those who are closest and most intimate to oneself.

Each person’s values are different. Some people accept universal values and adhere to them as guiding principles in their lives. Others believe that they have a better interpretation of so-called universal values. The distinction between them does not necessarily fall along the line of material versus spiritual values. The difference lies in the balance between ideals and reality. For example, some individuals believe that everything, including people, can be measured by money; they label and assign a price to everything. They even believe that everyone can be bought, including their body and soul. This represents a typical value system for a certain group of people.

On the other hand, universal values are generally accepted through mass media such as novels, radio, television, movies, and social platforms. For example, “Life is precious, love is even more valuable. But for the sake of freedom, both can be sacrificed” is a universally recognized value. However, in the real world, not everyone will act or live according to these universal values. Instead, you will see more people bowing to reality and yielding to authority. Certainly, there are heroes and heroines who are willing to sacrifice themselves for freedom, shedding blood and tears. However, they are not the majority. Most people prefer a mediocre life and are unwilling to take risks. In this context, it can be understood that there is a certain distance between the personal values of most people and universal values.

Similarly, being “honest” is a universal value. However, different degrees of “lying” seem to be the reality-based value system. The debate on universal values seems to have come down to whether “lying” that doesn’t harm others can also be considered as part of honest behavior. This is true in China as well as in Western societies.

3. Worldview and Cosmology

In a broad sense, worldview refers to the general understanding and unique experiences that individuals have about the world. In a narrow sense, it refers to the understanding and perception of other countries by a nation or even an individual. These concepts are closely related to a nation’s culture, language, politics, economy, and natural resources. The same applies to their cosmology. The key point is that without the so-called knowledge beyond personal experience, or rather, the insertion of others’ experiences or speculations into One’s own beliefs, One must possess the ability to think independently. Otherwise, they may fall into the trap of following the crowd. In strict terms, cosmology cannot be included in worldview. For example, humans live on Earth, which is a third-Density planet in the universe, a material world. Naturally, the sensory systems of most people can only perceive the existence of matter.

As scientists have discovered, the matter we previously understood from a scientific perspective is only three percent of this universe. The remaining 97 percent is yet to be known by our scientists. Regarding interstellar civilizations and the origins of humanity, humans know very little. So, the question worth pondering is whether our worldview as humans is merely our subjective consciousness. In other words, do we only understand a part of the world that our sensory systems can perceive?

4. Modern Science Has a limited Understanding of the Universe

I often hear and see statements like this: “Without a scientific worldview, there can’t be a correct perspective on life and values.” I believe this proposition is worth pondering. Firstly, how much does humanity currently understand about the universe through science? Secondly, how much of our perspective on life and our values is truly accurate?

Scientists believe that the universe has a history of at least 14 billion years, while humans developed theories only after they appeared. Scientists themselves admit that the matter they know from a scientific perspective is only three percent of this universe. Science is constantly exploring and discovering. So, why do philosophers who hold this theory make such claims? What kind of worldview can be considered correct? The author often says, “Science is a bottom-up exploration and discovery, while the truth is an enlightening and revealing top-down process” – for readers’ reference.

For most people, their cosmology is artificially implanted or influenced by secular ideas due to limitations. It may not necessarily be the truth. Have you ever thought about it? The “Law of One” may provide some inspiration. Learn more…>

Nevertheless, in the author’s view, cosmology, worldview, philosophy of life, and values are merely focal points of consciousness at different positions, that is, the difference in scaling (zooming) between macro and micro perspectives.

Consciousness is inherently a process of spiraling upwards and gradual cognition. Differences in ideas between individuals exist because each person’s consciousness has different “rust points.” The so-called rust points refer to Distortion positions. Using a metaphor of tightening a bolt: the bolt represents a person’s current state of consciousness; the nut represents the tool to raise consciousness; and the search for truth serves as the driving force. When the driving force exceeds the resistance, the nut will be slowly pushed (tightened) upward. The “resistance” here refers to the corrosion or rust spots of consciousness, namely the “Distortion” of consciousness. The thicker the rust spots of a person’s consciousness, the more difficult it is to raise consciousness with the nut. Learn more…>

5. Consciousness and Density are Divided into Eight Levels

Consciousness is divided into seven levels, and each level contains seven sub-levels… and so on, infinitely. This explains why there are huge differences in consciousness between individuals. To clear the rust spots on consciousness (raise consciousness) more efficiently, One can use practices such as meditation and mindfulness. The eighth level of consciousness belongs to the consciousness of God. Learn more…>

In the author’s view, cosmology is also understood as God’s perspective. This represents a transcendent understanding that includes the meaning of objective existence beyond subjective consciousness. In other words, cosmology is not only the observation of the universe from our spatial-temporal standpoint; it also represents how different spatial-temporal and temporal-spatial entities within the universe, including Earth, are viewed from different spacetime perspectives.

Whether people know it or agree with it, there are countless different spacetime and time/space realities within the universe, each hosting numerous forms of life, including both biological and non-biological entities.

The Creator brought forth the universe and created eight evolutionary levels within it, each level referred to as a Density. Earth and humanity exist in the third Density as a planet and life forms. At this stage, Earth is part of a third-Density material civilization and is currently undergoing a transitional period toward the Density shift into the fourth Density. Learn more…>

6. Closed-book Exam

Doubts about the existence of God are a natural phenomenon because the third Density is the only Density that has a veil of forgetting. This veil is also known as the “veil of forgetting” or “spiritual amnesia” and acts as a closed-book examination. Humans cannot comprehend the contents of the examination. It is a mechanism designed specifically for third-Density planets. This mechanism causes all entities born into a third-Density environment, such as our Earth, to forget their true identities and forget their “past life” experiences. This is necessary. Only through this “chaotic mechanism” or the law of free will, can the integration of new individualized consciousness occur. The veil operates as a space/time phenomenon, meaning it only occurs on third-Density planets and does not manifest in the realm of time/space.

As some readers who have read the author’s biography may know, the author was once a staunch atheist and finally found the answer through decades of seeking the truth. In comparison, scientist Halley’s extraordinary insight is also remarkable, with Newton’s genius induction playing a significant role. The story at the end of the article may provide some insights into the question of “the existence of God.”

7. If the World Outlook is Wrong, Will the Outlook on Life and Values be Correct?

A person’s cosmology often reflects on their worldview and values. The clearer One’s cosmology, the clearer their life and values will be, and vice versa. Similarly, human civilization is based on collective universal values. The higher the vibrational frequency of collective consciousness, the faster our evolution and the more advanced our civilization become, and vice versa!

Many people believe that although schools impart a lot of knowledge to people, they have never truly established a correct worldview. This problem is not only an issue with education in China but a global problem, including countries like the United States. If the upstream part does not change, the downstream part cannot be improved. The upstream part is the vibrational frequency of consciousness, while the downstream part is ideology, which includes beliefs, culture, and politics.

In summary, the three perspectives (cosmology, values, and life outlook) are part of consciousness. Wherever consciousness exists, there are different concepts of materiality and spirituality. For example, does something like “God” count as an objectively existing entity that most people cannot perceive or science cannot prove? How do we define something that objectively exists but cannot be verified, such as the “soul”? Throughout history, unexplainable things have been categorized into philosophy and Metaphysics to avoid endless debates that lead to no results.

The author believes that our human perspectives on life and values are both founded upon the understanding of our worldview. In theory, if our human worldview is incorrect, our values and life perspectives might encounter issues. The problem lies in the fact that our modern human understanding of the universe, especially in the realm of science and physics, is limited to the physical aspects. Therefore, our values and life perspectives are indeed built upon such a worldview. As a result, we must reflect on whether our perspectives might be biased. The answer is self-evident!

Endless debates do not mean that the “truth” does not exist. On the contrary, the truth is omnipresent, just like God. What the author means is the issue of “perspectives and angles“. Until a person can step into another perspective to observe things, they will always hold onto the notions formed from their own standpoint. Therefore, it is evident that debates only result in wasted time and effort.

Existence Gives Rise to Thought or Does Consciousness Determine Everything?

Some argue that existence determines consciousness, rather than consciousness determining everything. The viewpoint that existence determines consciousness primarily suggests that “consciousness” is passive. This brings us back to the debate between materialism and idealism, the question of “who is The Source?”. Have Metaphysics and reality ever peacefully coexisted?!

Here are a few key points worth discussing: What is consciousness? How do we differentiate between thought and consciousness? What is the essence of human beings? Why do we choose to be human? What is the nature of the soul? Furthermore, what are facts? What is the truth? What is the essence of the world and the truth behind life? In fact, the answers have long been hidden within. Please refer to the author’s comments on “The Fundamental Difference Between Consciousness and Thought” for more understanding. Learn more…>

The relationship between facts and truth is similar to the distinction between cleverness and wisdom: Clever people may not possess wisdom, but wise people always transcend cleverness. Facts may not necessarily be the truth, but the truth always encompasses facts.

Likewise, there is a significant difference between nature and essence. For example, the natural instinct of animals is to strive for survival and reproduction, preserving their genetic heritage. In contrast, human nature is much more complex. This is because the essence of a human being is a composite of mind/body/spirit. Human nature can be discussed from two aspects: human nature and human essence. Human nature refers to the attribute part, primarily related to the physical or biological aspect, while human essence refers to the spiritual or inner part. Both human nature and essence are inherent to humans. Nature is outward, while spirituality is inward. Therefore, in terms of the mind, the spiritual side of an ordinary person is easily suppressed by their nature. This is a special design of the third-Density known as the “Veil of Forgetting” or “Spiritual Amnesia“. Some refer to it as a “closed-book examination“. Learn more…>

For readers who haven’t yet read the above articles, I encourage you to take some time to explore them. I dare say that you will greatly benefit from them. It is not because the author possesses extraordinary qualities, but rather because this is sacred wisdom and universal truth accessible to everyone. Although proving these theories is challenging within the third-Density environment in which we humans reside, it is an old adage: The truth is omnipresent, but it requires seeking to find it!

Faith and Values

Values are abstract principles accumulated from many life experiences that people apply in their lives. Each person has unique concepts, while faith is a belief that individuals consider true and related to past experiences. Faith often stems from a belief system or religion, such as believing in causality, good and evil, or destiny. Values can influence behavior and character, while faith can impact a person’s morality and values.

Faith can also be understood as a belief; although it is distinct from values, they can influence each other. However, in most cases, values are rooted in faith or belief. In other words, values are downstream of belief or faith; further downstream is culture; downstream of culture is politics. As mentioned earlier, under authoritarian regimes, the dynamic is reversed, where they can control politics, culture, and ideology.

The Author’s Attitude Towards Three Perspectives

To pursue things that One considers valuable and meaningful. Listen to One’s inner self and live in the present moment.

Even God does not judge each person’s perspectives. Why do we, as human beings, always enjoy judging others? In another blog post, the author mentioned that the only thing we need to do in the drama of life is to “understand our roles and play them well.” The quality of others’ acting has nothing to do with you. Understanding the role we play and how we portray ourselves is the only thing we need to do in our lives. Learn more…>

The sages taught: “Cultivate oneself, regulate the family, govern the state, pacify the world“. Please note the order, starting from the self as the center, from the inside out, from small to large, gradually expanding outward. The order of the discipline of the personality follows the same principle. Learn more…>

The author’s Core Values

The author’s core value is very simple, it is: “to love, to express love”.

Revelations

Lastly, I would like to conclude this article by drawing inspiration from the story of Newton and Halley, the discovery of Fu Xi, and the author’s own insights. Philosophical concepts are always a collision game of perspectives, where “what the benevolent see, the wise perceive.” There is no absolute right or wrong, only differences in viewpoints and angles. The author’s insights are offered for reference.

Does God Exist?

It is said that Edmund Halley, the renowned astronomer famous for calculating the orbit of Halley’s Comet, was once an atheist. One day, he visited Newton and discovered an exquisitely crafted model of the solar system, with planets distributed around the central sun in perfect celestial order. When a crank was turned, all the planets moved in their orbits in an orderly manner. Astonished by this masterpiece, Halley couldn’t help but ask Newton who had created this model. Newton replied that no One had made it; it was simply the result of various materials coincidentally coming together in this way. Halley insisted that someone must have built it, and that person must be a genius. At this moment, Newton patted Halley’s shoulder and said, “Although this model is intricate, it cannot compare to the real solar system! If you believe that there must be someone who created it, then the solar system, which is thousands of times more intricate than this model, must have been created by an omnipotent God.” It was at this point that Halley had a sudden realization and came to believe in the existence of God.

Macrocosm and Microcosm

Fu Xi, through observing the sky and introspecting on himself, discovered the secrets of the macrocosm and the microcosm. The human body is a microcosm, a reflection of the macrocosm. It reveals the subtleties of the creation of heaven and earth and even the evolution of the universe. Whether in ancient sages or modern intellectuals, they all penetrated the mysteries of the universe and then chose a clear direction for their own lives.

Polarity and Vibration Frequency

Consciousness is a process that spirals upward from the South Pole to the North Pole, gradually recognizing and elevating oneself. The South Pole represents the negative pole, corresponding to the consciousness of the chakras in the human body, such as the Root Chakra; the North Pole represents the positive pole, namely the Crown Chakra. Consciousness is also a form of vibrational frequency. The closer it is to the South Pole, the lower the vibrational frequency, and conversely, the closer it is to the North Pole, the higher the vibrational frequency. As frequencies resonate with each other, people and things with different vibrational frequencies find it difficult to coexist peacefully. This is the law of attraction. Learn more…>

Seeking Truth

I once believed that only scientists had the means to explore the universe. Later, I discovered that this was a tremendous fallacy. Taking action to open the door to the universe is akin to opening the door to the truth: “Seek, and you shall find it!” And the key to opening the door is unconditional love. These two treasures must be held simultaneously; One cannot be without the other. This is the author’s realization.

Truth, like God, is omnipresent! Only through seeking can it be found.
