There are essentially two popular, approved, accepted, traditional, myths in our day and age, spread all across the western lands, that undermine the very nature of the self's reality power.
1. The first is the idea that God does everything, created everything, and left us to fend for ourselves with guidance of a holy book, and for some a 'holy spirit.' The reason why this idea is so appealing is because it's implies that the essential foundation of all things is made so as to achieve a priority contrived by an all knowing, and loving, being. However appealing this idea may be, it takes away from the creative ability of any who surrender and submit themselves to it. A church is not just a Church, it is an organization of explicit beliefs that are conducive to your style of living and your behavior. Morality, purpose, meaning, traditions, these concepts each have a variety of different approaches, or answers, because there are a variety of religions that answer them. The truth behind this is, we like fish that go into one place and glow Christian and another and glow Jewish are really defining ourselves by are promotion of cause, and our adherence to beliefs. To escape from this myth, to see beyond it is to realize that humans create civilizations, that we are endowed with a nature, caused by past adaption, but that we now are creating ourselves by the tools of our own devising, production, and actualization. 2. The second myth is the one currently being studied and researched by the scientists of today. It is only myth because it is a incomplete, and skewed explanation of the universe. The study, incomplete as it is, portentously and ominously deems everything that exists as an "accident". This single word provokes the idea of meaningless in those that want and feel the desire in them to value their place "in the cosmos." If you are nothing more then an accident desiring to live, love, observe, and work, you are not going to feel as comfortable in your life as you would believing that you are purpose drawn; so it is that this notion can distress those who don't understand the truth of all embracing, self created "abstraction". The reason why this idea of the universe being a cosmic joke is just plain silly is because most people who haven't studied philosophy, have a false or primitive understanding of the words and the meanings of accident and purpose among many other words. An accident means that nothing is responsible, or that something which caused an event is of no importance, or the cause escapes our awareness and calculative prescience (this is to say ability to know future, or reasons for things). A purposeful event is one that happens because we are aware of it intentions, its cause, and its usage. A maxim can be made from the fact, that everything that is matter matters. Everything serves a purpose, but not everything serves a purpose to fulfill one single intent. A pen can be thrown or it can be used as a writing utensil. The purpose is there, and it will do what it will do, either in combination with the will of the self-consciousness or the law based forces of non-aware event creation. When we revise our definitions of cause and effect, of purpose and meaning, of intelligence, awareness, and energy, we will start to comprehend the nature of oneness, and our own selves as participating reality makers. This will take place ever the more so as we comprehend the consequences of actions, the forces of the physical world, and our place among and of them. The law of causation is understood simply as: (1) Do something and then get a certain result. (2) Do not do that something and then one does not get the corresponding result. This law of causation, is all encompassing phenomena, and our sciences are trying to come to terms with the causes and the results that best create the living experience that is the human and earthly one.
