Wisdom
"Honesty is the first chapter of the book of wisdom."
- Thomas Jefferson
The Thought Process of Becoming is what you must become aware of if you want to improve your life and get on the road to enlightenment. The only way you will create heaven for yourself is to change your mind. The only thing you have to change in your mind in order to come to be is to stop thinking about anything else. Take a stand in your Point of View, live in the moment, (there is no past or future) and project yourself as the angel you really are.
"He who knows not, and knows not that he knows not, is a fool; shun him.
He who knows not, and knows that he knows not, is a student; teach him.
He who knows, and knows not that he knows, is asleep; wake him.
He who knows, and knows that he knows, is wise; follow him."
— Asian proverb
Your Process of Becoming is determined by what you think you want (goal,) what you think you understand (knowledge) and what circumstances you think you face at the moment. When you feel "out of balance," you try to orient yourself, take stock of the circumstances that surround you, and make a decision about the action that you must take to regain your balance. Then, you prioritize this action on your To Do List, whether in your mind or on a piece of paper and you either go to the next itch to scratch or begin acting upon your first priority. One major point to understand here: You are ALWAYS acting upon your number one priority.
For you to change your life to a higher plane, you must review those activities you perform (and have performed) and reevaluate why you do what you do and why you did what you did. The most difficult thing to do in self-evaluation is to evaluate what you feel about your State of Being and how you got there. If you have been in your Comfort Zone for a while, you may have become complacent about developing further. After all, if you have no bills and a hefty financial backing, what could prompt you to do anything different than what you always have done? You can now prepare yourself for death and you may already have picked your final "resting place." If that is the case, then you are already dead.
The most important realization you need to make here is that you never "see" anything except in your own mind. The "out there" is the vision you project after you process the sensory input you could interpret. "Out There" is your output. Therein lie the keys to freedom. If you want to improve your State of Being, you must learn to interpret more of the information your senses send to your mind. You must gain more knowledge and understanding. The Time, Place, and Knowledge trinity of circumstances need to be understood for what they really are.
Knowledge
"Knowledge is the only fountain both of the love and the principles of human liberty."
- William Wordsworth.
You are taught from an early age to recognize, categorize, prioritize and sort into sequence whatever stimuli you can sense. These activities make you decide what to do next. Most educational systems in industrialized countries will teach elements that will make an individual useful in society, rather than elements of self-realization. For you to enlighten yourself, you have to desire it and make it a goal. You will never be able to know anyone else better than you know yourself. The first element to know on the road to enlightenment is you.
"Self examination is the key to insight, which is the key to wisdom."
M. Scott Peck – Meditation from the Road.

About the Book
“When you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary project, all your thoughts break their bonds. Your mind transcends
limitations, your consciousness expands in every direction and you find yourself in a new, great, and wonderful world. Dormant forces, faculties and talents become alive and you discover yourself to be a greater person by far than you ever dreamed yourself to be.”
- Patanjali
“I no longer view the world in terms of unfortunate accidents or misfortunes.
I know in my being that I influence it all, and now find myself considering why I created a situation, rather than saying, “why me?”
- Dr. Wayne Dyer
“Since everything is but an apparition perfect in being what it is, having nothing to do with good or bad, acceptance or rejection, one may as well burst out in laughter.”
- Longchenpa
About the Author
Mr. Stachura was born in a small village in Central France at the end of World War II. His parents brought the family to Chicago in 1955 to begin a new life. Eight years later, at the age of eighteen, he became one of the first computer programmers at LaSalle National Bank in Chicago and started converting manual systems to automated processes.
In 1982, while attending a training class, he reached an understanding of how the human mind works. For the next fourteen years, he studied and researched exhaustively to design an artificial mind that would think, learn, and make decisions as a human being does.
In 1991, he met his partner who had created software that would serve this concept. It wasn’t until 1995 that Cognitor, Incorporated was co-founded and the name “Cogitator” was given to the software. After twenty-five years of research, “The Mind – User Manual” was released in April 2007.
Largely self-educated, Mr. Stachura has traveled around the world, has an honorable discharge as a Vietnam veteran, spent two years in Saudi Arabia managing a software firm and is a member of MENSA.
