Three Dimensions of Life

We all struggle with how and what to govern and be governed by. There is an innate need to be independent. It is a good and natural thing where by we learn and grow. Growth cannot come if we are not learning and we can not learn unless we act upon the things we are taught. So it is critical for all of us to experience independence.

On the other hand, we cannot be taught if there is not a place and a time and a teacher for instruction. I need to clearly state that there is a difference between instruction and learning. Instruction comes at a time, a place and with a teacher. Learning happens as instruction is applied to a person's life. And if the instruction does not work for a particular person, then further instruction must be sought. By carefully working together, the instructor and the student can adapt to the student's need, whether it is clarification or a new angle of view or exercise.The teacher and student must explore all of these in order to experience success. A true student will inspire a teacher to learn as much as the student, though hopefully on a higher level.

By learning, the student and the teacher lift up together.

On the other hand, there is need for boundaries in each time and place. In such a time and place as an individual finds themselves, the individual must acknowledge that they support and conform to the boundaries which apply to that time and space.

There are four types of boundaries. They are codes, mandates, regulations and laws. The relationship of the four boundaries creates the Law Relationship Systems.

The key to growth is to use boundaries to leverage one's self to a higher level or plane of learning. This is what we commonly call government. The form of the boundaries is created and supported by those governed by the boundaries. That must be done in a forum where all who are governed are part of the discussion of the boundaries. And there must be structure to the forum and the formation of the government.

And so it is that we have 3 methodologies or dimensions of life. The first is the one of independence. The second is learning. The third is boundaries.
