#e32 Various frequency bands

In this world in which we live, diverse perspectives and consciousness coexist, as if there are countless channels communicating in different radio bands.

However, we try to accommodate people in every radio band without realizing this complex system.
Herein lies the difficulty in socializing with others, as well as in politics, schools, and corporate management.
We as individuals should be aware of the existence of this radio frequency band if we are to live independently.

Not getting the story across.

We have all felt that different people have different points of concern even when we are talking about the same thing.

It is easy to understand if you think of it as like listening to a radio broadcast with the frequency not being right.
For example, there may be a lot of noise, or the signal may be almost inaudible and unintelligible, or occasionally there may be interference, such that two broadcasts can be heard at the same time.

Sometimes there are problems with the expression of the person who is transmitting the message in the first place.
Sometimes, the transmitter is trying to include so much content that he or she is unable to sort it out.
In this case, it is like a broadcast that can be heard in Chinese and English at the same time.
However, this is the real world of our actual conversation, and we are both playing poor reception radio.
Considering that the conversation in the world is based on such a situation, it may be an illusion that we can understand each other.

Now, the smart ones have good quality receivers, wouldn’t you say?
They can switch the receiver so that it matches the channel to the radio wave being transmitted to the person they are talking to.
Moreover, since they are equipped with a booster, they can be understood as clearly as a high-performance TV receiver that displays images on two screens at the same time.

On the other hand, those with poor receiver performance (and that’s pretty rude, but anyone can get stubborn and fall into a tilt)
They can never quite match the channel of the person they are talking to.
If we can only communicate with those who are on the same page, we will naturally exchange similar opinions with each other.
In other words, they will exchange only the same information.

This is how it is depicted in the picture.

From ancient times, humans must have sensed the existence of these different radio bands.
So each culture wondered if they could cope with it through a status system like the caste system.

Perhaps they hoped that by doing so, they could create a world in which life was easier and a stable society could be formed.
However, today, we know that people of this different radio band can be born from any status.
Therefore, there was no meaning to these status systems.
(Although there are people who still suffer from the status system today.)

What we can do now is to be born and associate with various people and determine which band they are from.
Since we have become a “society of equality by construction,” it is no longer possible to divide people by status, as mentioned above, and each individual must understand and deal with this microcosm of society as if it were a different radio band.

It is also essential to maintain one’s own transmitter and receiver, if possible, and gradually refine them to a higher quality.
