LAW OF THREE (34)
WHAT? HOW? WHY?
"Yes" is of the mind .
"No" is of the body. The reconciling is of the emotions.
Body knows the "how" of things. Mind knows the "what"
of things. Emotion, plus mind and body, understands the "why"
of things. Scientists are interested in the "how" of
things, not in the "why" of things. S. Nott
Understanding phenomena requires the answer to three questions : what?
How? Why?
The Law of
Three identifies 3 forces: "why"is the active force of the action; "How"
is the resisting force of the action, and "what" (or
thus) is the reconciling or outcome of the action.
The active force
refers to the initiation of an action, the resisting force
refers to its process , and the reconciling force refers to the
result or the thus of the action.
As simple example:
Building of a house
i Why? We want to built a house
because we need shelter, etc. (+);
ii How? Refers to site, materials,
labour, cost, etc. or conditions to build the house (-)
iii What? The final outcome or the
thus of the action: here is the house!! (=)
Finding ordinary examples of the play
of What, How, and Why in the material world is not difficult. But there are perennial questions which have been active inner forces ever since mankind acquired self reflective consciousness:
What is Man? How did Man
come to be? Why of Man?
What am I? How did I come to be? Why
am I ?
What is this creation? How did it come about? What (why) is its purpose?
