An Outline of My Philosophy
Most of what we call “life” is really a conversation between information and limitation. We live inside bodies, cultures, histories, and habits that shape how we see the world long before we ever get a say in it. And yet, within those limits, something remarkable happens: we can think, choose, act, and grow. We can move into better futures. We can become more capable than we were yesterday.
My philosophy begins with a simple idea:
Everything is information — and the way information is organised determines what is possible.
That might sound abstract, but it’s actually very practical. The patterns of information inside us — our beliefs, assumptions, emotional habits, cultural stories — shape what we notice, what we ignore, what we fear, and what we attempt. They shape our sense of what is viable. They shape our readiness for change.
So the real work of becoming more capable, whether as individuals or organisations, is the work of reorganising information.
1. The world is made of bounded and unbounded information
There is information that is bounded — the kind that shows up in physical form, in brains, in bodies, in systems, in organisations. This information is shaped by constraints. It has limits.
And then there is unbounded information — the deep patterns that sit beneath everything. You can call it God, consciousness, the informational field, or simply the ground of being. It doesn’t matter what name you give it. What matters is that it is not limited, not needy, not emotional. It simply is.
Bounded systems express the unbounded, but never contain it.
This is why humans can be both limited and astonishing.
2. Functional information determines what a system can actually do
Not all information is equal. Some information is decorative. Some is noise. Some is inherited and never questioned.
But functional information is different. It’s the information that does work in a system. It shapes behaviour, capability, and viability. It determines what is possible from here.
If you want to understand why a person or organisation behaves the way it does, don’t look at what it says. Look at the functional information it is operating on.
3. Readiness is the capacity to choose well under limitation
Life is full of constraints — time, resources, relationships, culture, fear, and habit. We don’t get to remove these constraints. But we do get to decide how we respond to them.
Readiness is the ability to:
see clearly
think generatively
choose functionally
act coherently
It’s not about being fearless or perfect. It’s about being capable in the real conditions of your life.
4. Thinking is not one thing — it is a set of lenses
We don’t have one “thinking mode.” We have several, and each serves a different purpose.
Critical Thinking helps us see clearly and separate signal from noise.
Generative Thinking helps us imagine viable futures.
Functional Thinking helps us choose what will actually work in this system.
Balanced Thinking helps us integrate all three without tipping into distortion.
When these lenses work together, we can navigate complexity with clarity and confidence.
5. Culture writes our early code — but we can rewrite it
The ideas we absorb as children become the architecture of our adult minds. They stabilise us, but they also limit us. They tell us what is normal, what is allowed, what is dangerous, and what is possible.
But this code is not final.
We can examine it. We can update it. We can reorganise it. We can expand what is possible for us.
This is the heart of personal growth — not self‑improvement, but re‑patterning.
6. The spiritual dimension is informational, not supernatural
For me, spirituality is about recognising that the unbounded informational field expresses itself through bounded forms — including us.
If someone finds meaning in Jesus, Krishna, or any other figure, that doesn’t threaten the unbounded. It simply shows how humans relate to the divine through embodiment. Devotion is a human response, not a divine requirement.
The unbounded does not need worship. But humans often need relationships.
There is no contradiction here.
7. The goal is coherence
Everything in my philosophy points toward one thing:
Becoming more coherent — in how we see, think, choose, and act.
Coherence expands capability. Capability expands possibility. Possibility expands life.
This is what readiness is for. This is what change is for. This is what growth is for.
Not perfection. Not enlightenment. Just coherence.
The clean synthesis
Here is the simplest way to express my philosophy:
We are bounded expressions of unbounded information. Our lives are shaped by the informational patterns we inherit and the ones we create. Readiness is not simply adapting to change — it is the capacity to reconfigure the informational architecture we live inside, keeping what is functional, releasing what is not, and reorganising ourselves so new capability becomes possible.
That’s it. Clear. Human. Practical. And deeply hopeful.
