In other words, everything\u00a0external and internal can be observed from different perspectives along the\u00a0line, or within the different dimensions, of scale.<\/p>\n<p>Many systems, ideas, concepts and events can\u2019t be grasped, understood or\u00a0experienced to their full extent without keeping the universal idea of scale in\u00a0mind. Practically applying the idea of scale to the relevant things in life\u00a0expands our limited way of thinking and has a transformative impact on our\u00a0perception. Hence it leads to greater freedom in the way we might respond or\u00a0how we might practise on our yoga mat.<\/p>\n<p>The term \u2018scale\u2019 is mainly applied to systems containing the capacity to\u00a0expand, yet very little is known about the internal psychological scale or the\u00a0cosmological universal scale.<\/p>\n<h3>The Psychological Scale<\/h3>\n<p>The scale of our psychology can be seen as a contracting or expanding field\u00a0of a subtle vibration, which is under the influence of increasing or decreasing\u00a0laws, depending on whether we are ascending or descending along its vertical\u00a0range or axis.<\/p>\n<p>The higher its frequency the less limiting our take on things becomes and the\u00a0less identified we become. The lower its frequency, the more limiting our view\u00a0on things and the more identified we become.<\/p>\n<h3>Scale in Everyday Life<\/h3>\n<p>There are different dimensions to scale and we are most familiar with the\u00a0scale of cartography, which is a two-dimensional or linear scale.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cartography portrays the ratio between two points on a map to the real\u00a0distance between the two corresponding points. A map on a large\u00a0scale shows much more detail than a map on a small scale.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Another very familiar scale is the musical scale or octave in which\u00a0ascending and descending notes are arranged by the composer in a\u00a0specific scheme of intervals to create a piece of music.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>In medicine the idea of scale is used to measure mental and physical\u00a0developments using a graded series of tests.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Scale in maths is the notation of a given number system. A ruler or\u00a0other measuring device represents the idea of scale as well as a\u00a0weighing device.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Architecture is the Holder of Ancient Knowledge<\/h3>\n<p>The scale of architecture takes us into three dimensions and features the\u00a0relationship between different facets of organised space and structures in\u00a0their relationship to the viewer.<\/p>\n<p>The scale and size of buildings not only impress the viewer, but also create\u00a0different moods, which are the result of the total interaction of dimensions in\u00a0space that underlie every element of the composition.<\/p>\n<p>A variety of artistic effects can be achieved by creating a perfect balance\u00a0between the geometry, height and textures and the way natural light enters\u00a0the building.<\/p>\n<p>A relatively small architectural structure viewed from the outside can give a\u00a0much larger impression and sense of spaciousness once one enters the\u00a0building, depending on the structural layout and use of space.<\/p>\n<p>Grand-scale structures like ancient temples and cathedrals often symbolise\u00a0the power and social position of the person ordering its construction. Some of\u00a0them intend to make us feel insignificant, whereas others are supposed to\u00a0create an image or feeling that is understood not only by contemporaries but\u00a0also by future societies and cultures.<\/p>\n<p>That is, temples, mosques, pyramids\u00a0and churches were not only built for the purpose of worship or spiritual\u00a0practice; they are carriers and transmitters of ancient knowledge concealed\u00a0and encrypted within their geometric structure.<\/p>\n<h3>The Scale of Events<\/h3>\n<p>A completely different kind of scale is the scale of events in everyday life.<\/p>\n<p>Our life from birth to death is nothing more than a succession of events. Each\u00a0day is a series of events that are crowded in on many different scales.\u00a0It is personal events that attract most of our attention, and these can be\u00a0divided into external and internal events, which take place simultaneously.<\/p>\n<p>Our attention is constantly drawn back and forth between internal and external\u00a0events, depending on the intensity of their gravitational pull of importance or\u00a0priority.<\/p>\n<p>As we move along the scale we come to family events that see us usually\u00a0discussing the internal and external events affecting individual family\u00a0members.<\/p>\n<p>Then there is a larger circle of events gyrating around our personal and family\u00a0events, which relate to our profession, friends and community. Those are, in\u00a0turn, surrounded by our local events, which we usually come across by\u00a0reading our local newspaper or watching a local TV channel, though we are\u00a0not necessarily personally or actively involved in them.<\/p>\n<p>The local events link to our national events, which form part of the world\u00a0events, and all of them take place simultaneously on different scales.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h3>Exercise:<\/h3>\n<p>Catch the moment when you shift from the current event to another,\u00a0such as the event of sending a text, shifting to the event of tweeting, to\u00a0directing your attention to the event of your current studies<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Try to prolong the gap between events and connect with a far greater\u00a0perspective the current events that form part of each.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4407 size-large alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/movementformodernlife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Indefinitely-1024x540.jpg\" alt=\"scale\" width=\"680\" height=\"359\" srcset=\"https:\/\/movementformodernlife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Indefinitely-1024x540.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/movementformodernlife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Indefinitely-300x158.jpg 300w, https:\/\/movementformodernlife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Indefinitely-768x405.jpg 768w, https:\/\/movementformodernlife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Indefinitely-624x329.jpg 624w, https:\/\/movementformodernlife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Indefinitely.jpg 1437w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>The Universal Scale<\/h3>\n<p>These examples of scale illustrate the point well, but the most impressive and\u00a0transformative example of scale is the night sky. The impact of the infinite\u00a0scale of our sky at night reflecting billions of stars, planets and galaxies can\u00a0lead to a different sense of scale in both thoughts and ideas.<\/p>\n<p>The expansive nature of the night sky may make us aware of our own\u00a0insignificance in relation to the whole and in the process connect us with the\u00a0sense of a far greater presence that governs and determines all there is,\u00a0manifested through myriad seemingly incidental scales of universal events,\u00a0which are ultimately forming the events of our own personal life. This different\u00a0scale of thought, which usually appears when we are touched on a deeperlevel, awakens our higher emotions and this is the beginning of meditation.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-533\" src=\"https:\/\/movementformodernlife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/1_s-1-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Alex Filmer-Lorch\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This post was written by <a href=\"https:\/\/movementformodernlife.com\/yoga-teacher\/alexanderfilmerlorch\">Alexander Filmer-Lorch SYT<\/a>,\u00a0Author of \u2018The Inner Power of Stillness \u2013 a practical guide for therapists and\u00a0practitioners (Handspring Publishing) &amp; \u2018Inside Meditation \u2013 in search of the\u00a0unchanging nature within\u2019 (Troubador Publishing)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/movementformodernlife.com\/yoga-teacher\/alexanderfilmerlorch\">&gt;&gt;Explore a range of mediations with Alexander Filmer-Lorch&gt;&gt;<\/a><\/h5>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/movementformodernlife.com\/yoga-teacher\/alexanderfilmerlorch\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4409 size-large alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/movementformodernlife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Alex-guided-meditation-1024x578.png\" alt=\"Alex Filmer-Lorch\" width=\"680\" height=\"384\" srcset=\"https:\/\/movementformodernlife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Alex-guided-meditation-1024x578.png 1024w, https:\/\/movementformodernlife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Alex-guided-meditation-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/movementformodernlife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Alex-guided-meditation-768x433.png 768w, https:\/\/movementformodernlife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Alex-guided-meditation-624x352.png 624w, https:\/\/movementformodernlife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Alex-guided-meditation.png 1321w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"fb_wrap\"><a class=\"fb_link\" onclick=\"fbs_click('https:\/\/movementformodernlife.com\/blog\/scale','');return false;\" href=\"#\">Send to Facebook<\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For everyone enjoying Alexander Filmer Lorch&#8216;s meditation series, delve deeper into your\u00a0understanding of scale together with a simple exercise to gain greater\u00a0perspective on your life.
