The phoenix is the symbol of rebirth, but also of self discovery. It is a symbol of new creation, born from the old world, not in my view of its destruction but of its parts come together. The electricity or power of this transformation is fundamental to know, since it is the parent of the becoming. Its atomic structure is understanding, for to transform is to know you have become and to become was to understand. The purpose most often of life , is to build something. Obviously not for all, but certainly for a lot of people. What follows are the truths of the phoenix feather and its transformation.
When inventing something new, it is best done through the use of innovation and the principles of the phoenix. Two important concepts that can actually greatly improve your ability to innovate when desired and with practice encourage new concepts to emerge.
In inventing things, we find many new things. Still many struggle with that because they don't know where to begin. In this small essay, I'll try to explain how to do this at a basic level. Firstly we shall look at the four principles of the Phoenix, which I shall further explain.
In death, when the bird dies in flight and blows into ashes, something new is made. This is the first truth.
This means to say that the object which is dead ( has no use ) is the perfect starting point for innovation. Such as the bark of a tree, which truly has no use beyond what is known , such as firewood. This is the first thing, but what is known of it must first be destroyed and a new path for it found.
The new thing is always powered by the parents of it, a broom was made of reeds and wood, this is the second truth.
Therefore the second truth says that one must make a new thing through the tying in of two or more other things, since multiple things come in the formation of a new thing, which truly can be anything. So then with our bark , we take the father and tie it with its wife the magnifying glass.. Perhaps you see not the connection yet, but in trying to find one you will.
Our self knowing is the origin of this power, we cannot do anything without what we know. this is the third truth.
We find that we can only use what we personally know about the object, so studying what an object can do is incredibly useful to the powers of innovation. It is therefore possible that their are undiscovered properties hidden in the features of a set of objects arranged in a new fashion. It is interesting to not that both wood and magnifying glasses are related to fire. This will be our origin of knowledge.
The self is what makes something new, since it is you who performs the miracle of creation. this is the fourth truth.
The final truth, is that you are in control of what it becomes, if you find that it is incomplete find the hole in the object and fill it with the next principle. It is miraculous to transmute the mundane into gold, since that is essentially what you are. Through knowing that you can develop new things you can gain great power and abilities not once acquired. In our example, we shall see that wood+magnifying glass = self igniting wood. Since if you mix glass that's convex with pieces of wood and leave it out on a sunny day, it should ignite, Its shards are potentially reusable and I would assume the wood is designed to e very dry. It would probably look something like a peice of wood with crystals. Safety wise it must be kept in the shade.
Following through the creation and transmutation of objects we learn two things and see two kinds of things, these two known things are that it is the origin that is its beginning and the source of that origin is ourselves. Meaning the origin is where it all starts to take shape and this takes place in the mind. Through this we gain the two kinds of things we can innovate, things that are plausible today and things that are impossible today. Certainly we want things possible, but the things that are impossible are also of use, for they could one day become available. This could be the inspiration for the future creators.
Things that are possible today are even more important , because they could be done today and would allow for an innovation in the world , thereby advancing human progress to a new level by the invention of a new thing, which is always a good idea. These things should also be written down to be built one day as they are always useful or at least interesting, humans are innovative creatures.
The problem anyone has when inventing something is that they can't think of something to begin with and don't know what to do, preferring to be sad in the lack of ideas they have and never trying, which is the first step to accomplishing anything, to try and see if it works.
Now, trying is good, but it is only one of the four keys to inventing, the second is inspiration, witch is to look at something and use it as inspiration for the new. The third is to take that inspiration and innovate it somehow by changing it and making it new. The final and fourth key, is to manipulate the object in your mind, treating the innovation as a sort of molding and malleable thing, further use the trick of unification. Because you can do that in your mind until it forms a new form which has not yet been seen before.
What follows is an example, made right now on the spot. Using of all things snow. The inspiration being that it solidifies when you put pressure on it. Therefore , I can see a powdered substance that does not melt, which can be solidified by pressure and comes in various colors , used to sculpt things in an interesting new medium.
Now, you invented something new, and wonder how to make it real, in the case of my invention , I am not sure if it is currently possible but I have written it down so that it could one day be, if you know how to make it , then by all means make it, but sometimes it not possible since it is not yet known how to build it, but keeping it in mind will help it come to be. Making more innovative things is always a good idea.
Finally , in making up new things , you gain innovative capabilities which can be useful in most scenarios. So practicing is a good idea anyways, making new things could be a hobby or it could be a way to your future. Since our modern world especially prides itself on that anyways. Have fun.
A lesser rule is that a thing that died is of use to us. Since it is the thing unused.
Following from this , we learn a simple set of rules for the creation of new things:
The origin of what self discoveries is itself, the origin of the discovery is what the self wants, so then what it wants but also what it wished to know or have. The desire of discovery is the way to self, the origin what it wishes to know.
So then put in simple terms, to discover something is simply to want to know something and to try and find the new you want in the things that are dead, instead of waiting for it to happen by not thinking of new things even when its difficult.
