If you do not understand racism (white supremacy) and how it works, everything else you understand will only confuse you. - Neely Fuller

We need something to clarify everything for us, because we get confused...but if we use the concept of Asili, we will understand that whatever it is they are doing, whatever terms they use, however they come at you, you need to be thinking about what? How is this going to facilitate their power and help them to dominate me? -Marimba Ani

Know Thyself, Self-Esteem, Health & Truth

Truth About Information & Knowledge

Turns out, all knowledge is information, but not all information is knowledge.
A critical designation that alters mental orientation and thought organization.

Knowledge is what is true. What is true is in harmony. Harmony is defined by ecosystems inside and outside of self. Each a continuation and extension of the other.
Knowledge is what is true about what is untrue, i.e., the truth about a lie. What is untrue is not in harmony. It harms ecosystems.

If I am not in harmony, I am not in enough truth.
I have information, but not enough knowledge.

Know Thyself, Know Truth

To know yourself requires truth of self, not information of self, not belief of self.
To know yourself requires knowledge of self. This truth about self is self-esteem.

What Self-Esteem Knows

The spiritual, mental, physical and emotional.
It cannot exist if one of the four aspects above is significantly deficient. This is why each aspect requires nutrition. Nutrition includes feminine and masculine energy. Nutrition also includes shared values with the Creator and creation. This is accomplished by valuing the primary value - harmony.
Abilities are given and developed to complement given purposes, not dreams. Sometimes they are the same thing but often they are not.

Self-esteem includes intimacy with the natural world.

It is power. Lasting power, overcoming power and becoming power.

Self-Esteem Is Not A Feeling

It is a state of awareness without a name given to itself. It just exists.
It is not the mind telling itself it has self-esteem.
Ask someone who has self-esteem and they will likely pause and probably ask questions because they haven't thought about it. It's just there.

Ask someone without self-esteem and the ones who immediately and emphatically say they have it probably don't. The answer was sitting right there in short-term memory. It was preconceived.

Someone who indicates they have self-esteem and that it's unshakeable and securely locked in place with no further effort won't have self-esteem for long, if they have it all.

An example why

Today's health can't carry you for the rest of your life. Neither can today's self-esteem (knowledge of self).
Each are part of the same ongoing process.
Though words are powerful, you can't talk yourself into health. Same goes for knowledge of self (self-esteem).
Health doesn't come from saying, “I am healthy. There's nothing wrong with me.”
Self-esteem doesn't come from saying, “I love myself.”

You must walk, run, work and fight your way through all terrain and obstacles to achieve and maintain health and self-esteem which are the same things because both deal with the physical, emotional, spiritual and mental.

The really great news is, since this is necessary, it is also entirely possible for everyone who continues to restore knowledge and get rid of information.

For those studying how knowledge of fundamentals informs learning, review the following article that shows how knowledge in today's article comes from, and is supported by, the fundamental keys. 6 Fundamental Keys To Life & Existence. For an exercise to sharpen abilities for life, you could discuss this with someone and try to find the keys and extensions in this article. Another way would be to print the article and write the number of the key/extension where appropriate or copy the article into a wordprocessor and do the same.
