Cause and Effect
Cause-Effect-1 (Linear Model):
Past events create future outcomes (A → B → C).
Appears as a binding chain of inevitability.
Felt within the ego-tunnel as “yesterday caused today.”
Cause-Effect-2 (Field Model):
All possibilities exist simultaneously, like pages in a book or channels on a TV.
Cause = tuning consciousness toward a specific alignment.
Effect = the immediate experience of that alignment.
Freedom comes from retuning now, rather than being bound by the past.
Cause-Effect-3 (Feedback Loop):
More circular than linear: thoughts → experiences → interpretations → new thoughts.
Each step reinforces probability pathways but does not force the next.
Awakening, language shifts, or sudden insights can break the loop instantly by retuning the entire field.
Additional Detail
Example (Linear vs Field):
Linear model: “Because I worried yesterday, I feel anxious today.”
Field model: “I tuned into worry-alignment yesterday; I’m still resonating with it today. I could retune now, and the ‘effect’ shifts immediately.”
The Buddha Trap (in this lens):
Acting as if cause-effect were linear: “I must fix the past so the future improves.”
Nonlinear view: The past doesn’t need fixing — it’s just one page.
Healing = choosing a different alignment now, which becomes the living reality.
