letra de how to program reality - akira the don
let me show you my path towards figuring out the user interface
it’s important that you know how i got there so that you can have some trust that there’s something to it
when i was a kid, i was influenced, as was my mother, by the book, “the power of positive thinking” by norman vincent peale
it suggested that you could somehow change your life or maybe you were changing reality if you could simply think positively
think positively (think positively)
think positively (think positively)
think positively (think positively)
so this was my first introduction to the concept that maybe reality was not fixed and something that you were a victim of, but rather, you could do something
there was some mechanism, some technique, some tools you could use to get some control over your environment and your life as opposed to having it control you
and that was my first thought that reality could be programmable in at least some simple sense
but of course, i embarked on a lifetime of exploration to find out if i could find out more about how to program reality
[chorus]
think positively
think positively
think positively
how to program reality
think positively
think positively
think positively
that led me to learn meditation, i became a trained hypnotist
of course, mushrooms, let you see the world in a completely different reality
and all these things, from studying all the different religions to doing affirmations, which is really just visualizing what you want and writing it out everyday
(visualizing what you want, writing it down everyday)
and then learning persuasion, these all have the same cumulative effect of teaching me that reality was indeed far more subjective than you’re led to believe
when i say reality is subjective, i don’t mean that there isn’t some base reality that’s real
what i mean is that we don’t have access to it
in other words, just take religion
two people with completely different religions can go into a store and they can shop, they can get married, have children
they don’t really need to reconcile the fact that they live in different worlds
one thinks there’s an afterlife, one thinks there’s reincarnation, one thinks there’s nothing and yet we all survive and thrive and reproduce
there’s nothing to suggest that our brains are the kind of brains that can understand reality
instead, all of the evidence suggests that we can put filters, optionally and somewhat subjectively, on our reality and the thing that we deal with is a filter
we’re not dealing with the underlying reality, our filter on it is the thing that’s real to us
and you can change those filters, so that’s the important part
and you can change them fairly easily and if you find a filter that predicts better and makes you happier, well, that’s the better filter, even if it isn’t a better approximation of reality
what matters is you’re happy, what matters is you’re getting what you need outta life
[chorus]
think positively
think positively
think positively
how to program reality
think positively
think positively
think positively
program reality
you can change those filters
change those filters
change those filters
how to program reality
think positively
think positively
think positively
so, once you accept that there’s a subjective reality, you’re starting to get ready to accept the user interface for that reality
