The interrelated field 2

Are we different from cell phones? Well, cell phones can not adjust themselves. But can we adjust ourselves?
If we see ourselves as a fixed identity with a fixed body, we can not adjust. We are as we are.
But if we see ourselves as a field in relation to a body and mind, we have to adjust all the time. Noting is stable, nothing is given. Of course, we might decide to do almost the same thing today as we did yesterday, but it is the result of a fresh decision.
The organism we are given at birth is extremely complex. We should not try to change it lightheartedly. So in a way it is good that we do not see all our options.
But it is not good to limit our perspective artificially.
If we are a field - which we are - our identity is not necessarily in what we are now but in the ideal. We are like children, seeking our identity.
Also if we are a field, we can act in rational way. We change the field by changing the material situation and by study and practice - we knew that. If we see our self as a field we can be more daring and exact.
