About the the concept of perception and divination

I will let myself be inspired by Gadamer. Its not important why or who he was.

The most basic form of experience is to recognize that something is happening. Something that changes the former order of how things are arranged and produced a new order of what has become. Be that as it may when it comes to qualify as "interesting" or "uninteresting", its still pretty much how the predominant way of "making reason" is achieved.

Perception is a matter of predisposition. Meaning without hands or something like that, you cant grasp things. Without eyes you cannot see. With no passages for sound to travel into the ear, there can be no "sound". Thus we can only perceive what we are prepared to see.

So perception is a matter of the mind to some, may i say large extent? Meaning, what we see is determined to some degree by the objects that we perceive. Please read "objects" with a wide sense of meaning.

So...

Divination is a matter of changing what you perceive to be the case. Willingly i might add. Is this some sort of hokus pokus trickery? Certainly not. If a conscious action is undertaken to try to bring about change or anything else, that in itself is at least to some small extent divination,
