Cool Logo, Not Sure About the Dots Though
Book 0: The Fundamentals | Chapter 0.2 | 30 April 2020
The Janthopoyism symbol visually represents the many beliefs and practices within the philosophy. Some were intentional. Others we discovered later and then pretended they were intentional
First and foremost, please admire the blatant J-shape spawning down the centre. Isn't it lovely?
Deeper: the logo conveys the considerable focus of Janthopoyism on the duality of the two worlds, both within and outside of everyone's experience. These are the
internal and the
external. Whether spiritual or physical, there are aspects you own (thoughts, emotions, body, etc.) and those you do not (everything beyond you). Meanwhile, a "bridge" connects these realms, allowing information to enter your being as well as sending information out.
Note the illustration of these domains: the top piece escapes the circle, connecting the inside to the outside, as the four dots float away from the fifth.
Way deeper: the practice of Janthopoyism unclogs the mind to receive instructions from the energy within and the energy beyond. Throughout our teachings, we will uncover various simple methods to achieve this. But there are two unique approaches exclusive to this spiritual path that we have depicted within the logo.
The first is the powerful ritual of the
Skew System. This study believes that if one can get their external life in order, then many worries (and therefore clutter) will be eliminated from the thought process. These Skews are umbrella classifications that encompass an array of factors and will conclusively take care of your external world without fail. The categories are as follows:
- Health: The body, including the brain and the brain’s opinion of your body.
- Relationships: All human connections.
- Home: Your safest space expanding outwards from your bed to your room to your house to your geographical location.
- Work: Your profession/expertise/source of income as well as your hobbies/passions.
- Spirit: Your existence in the greater scheme of the Universe.
The dots also represent these Skews.
Many texts will revisit these concepts.
The second teaching is the Pencil Program, designed to address your inner world and ultimately unearth your true purpose, guiding you towards it.
We named this strategy after the pencil due to its three components:
- The Eraser: The past—something which is gone and no longer in your control.
- The Lead Centre: The present—the longest portion because you are always here, moving forward, making it the only time when you can become the person you wish to be.
- The Point: The future—your Ultimate Calling, your final goal, what some semi-correctly refer to as their "destiny", although most likely not what you think it is.
The pencil is illustrated by the triangle pointing up into the circle.
These summarised ideas may initially seem somewhere between an overly simplified self-help text and an imaginative promise of some great fantasy, but do not worry! We shall revisit these programs repeatedly until your life transforms into the glorious apple it was born to be.
Let us state very clearly that we are not messing around. Janthopoyism is magical stuff, and you will see genuinely profound changes if you commit to this path.
Finally, Janthopoyism may be a spiritual belief, but it stems from a peaceful place where all human experience results from natural evolution. Everything is correct, for it is where the branches of the Universal Energy have reached, equal in all wonderfully contradictory directions. Our logo incorporates as many other religious symbols as possible to celebrate this unconditional inclusivity. Because it is merely the same story told with different detail.
To round off, here are some of those examples (certain attempts more satisfying than others, granted):
