Construction Process of Belief
According to the Encarta encyclopedia, belief means:
- Acceptance of the truth of something: acceptance by thoughts that something is true or real, often based on feelings of a certain emotional or spiritual.
- Believe that someone or something is good or effective.
Simply, belief is something that we truly believe. Once we believe something as the right thing, we will be hard to change that faith. Why? Because that’s our destiny as human beings. Do you still remember about homeostasis that I describe here?
Belief is no more than a claim or statement or idea. You can say, “We can make a claim or statement without believing it. It means, we doubt or don’t believe what we say.”
You’re right. To ensure a statement can be categorized as belief, it must have two elements: a claim and response to that claim. Response to that claim is “this statement is true”. We called it as the “agreement”.
So, needed two things to be able to have belief: claims/ideas and approval. For convenience, take notice to the following equation:
Idea/Claim/Statement + Approval = Belief
From the equation above, we can see that statement/idea and agreement are two different things. And also, we can feel that our agreement has different strength level. If we have higher strength level of agreement of a statement/idea, then our belief will be stronger to that statement/idea.
For example. We often hear people say, “It’s very easy.” The actual meaning behind this statement is, “my agreement to this statement is very strong”.
Is the matter of belief can be explained as simple as that? Of course it’s not. When belief established to belief systems, the matter become complex. We can examine the structure of belief systems by regard how the components (each belief) mutually interact.
So, belief certainly have a number of pattern associations (relationships) inside our mind acquired through experience based on internal or external stimulus that predicts a response or a specific result.
Before we talk more about what is belief, impact of belief to our lives, and how do we change or upgrade our belief, we will discuss the process of forming belief first.
Where belief come from? Why do we have belief that support and hinder us?
We learn and accept belief from our culture, our family, social and psychological programming, mass media, and from various experiences in our lives.
We’re born with no belief at all. Belief that all we have at this time, grown into very strong belief based on the development process of our lives, start from since we’re still a baby until now. We’re born without belief about ourselves and about people around us.
We learn, creating belief, value, goal, lifestyle, even our limited paradigm from our environment. Any experiences will go into subconscious mind and become mind program. The psychologist call this mind program as life script.
Readers, do you believe that belief can be planted in child’s mind since they’re still in their mother’s womb?
One thing you should know is, based on research conducted by Masters of Mind Technology including the hypnotherapist, I’ve founded an important fact.
What is it?
Evidently, mind or memory of a human being is perfectly active when he was still inside womb. Specifically, when pregnancy was started from three months, the memory of a newborn baby can record any experience that he’s got or felt.
A child who’s unwanted by his parents, a child who’s regarded as a burden by his parents, a child who ever planned to be aborted, parents who wanted a son but bear a daughter, all of this will be discovered by that child and entered into his mind.
