Before you enter outsight - An Introduction

Firstly, I am somewhat a person who likes to learn and think about what I learned. Reading, watching, doing and experiencing are great ways to learn externally. Thinking gives you the opportunity to learn and create from inside, from what you already know, to learn from yourself, taking your knowledge to a new level. I feel that the most important lesson in life is to learn how to learn. Nothing is beyond you after that...

2ndly, this is more of an attempt to document my learning and thoughts rather than to spread my message or views. I do not profess that I have a message. I only have some thoughts derived from lessons that I learned from others and my own experience. My intention (which is not really intentional) is that if anyone reads this, it should raise some questions in the reader's head. That would have been sufficient reward for my effort of typing out my thoughts here.

3rdly, my views are not necessary right or wrong, they are just my views from where I am, what I know (or dont know) and how I think. Views are typically clouded by conclusions that a person deduces. How the person comes to his conclusion depends on 2 things - a) the logic he uses, and b) the knowledge that is with him. Sometimes, the logic may be flawed, more often the knowledge is lacking or even wrong, other times, both.

4thly, the essence of the content of the articles (that I will compose later) are not originally mine. Before I am accused of plagiarising, I wish to state that everything here is typed by me using my hands (finger-tips to be technically/anatomically correct) from thoughts coming from my head (although I dont know how to prove this), with no cut-and-paste stuff. While many of the ideas explained here have been discussed at great detail by others including the originators, I wanted to document my "implementation" of these ideas onto examples around me. Much like a photographer taking a picture of the Eiffel Tower from a specific angle - the picture is his, the tower remains where it is, and others are free to take more pictures from any angle, including the one he used.

Lastly, if this blog offends your thinking, I am sorry, that your thinking may be too narrow...

Why outsight? Because the word "insight" already covers the deep and penetrative understanding of a situation and the ability to grasp the hidden nature of things. That is deeply profound. I am much simpler than that, and therefore I think "outsight" is better suited. I see from the outside, without knowing, without pre-conceived notions or ideas.

Oh... a phrase (that was the title of a book I read in my teens) that I simply have to quote or paraphrase here -

"Try thinking. You may like the new experience."

All characters mentioned may or may not exist in some form or another in our world, although the names may have been changed to protect(or chide) the guilty. Any resemblances between the discussions here and the real life me is purely coincidental and unintentional. When I use the words "he/his/him", it is not sexist or chauvinistic, it is just less trouble (and less typing) than using he/she, his/hers and him/her. I thought of using "it" to be politically neutral (or neuter), but decided against "it".
