THE TRIVIUM METHOD
"The Trivium is presented to, in the grammar stage, methodically gather raw, factual data into a coherent body of knowledge. Then, in the dialectic or logic stage, to gain understanding of that body by systematically eliminating all found contradictions within it. And, finally, in the rhetoric stage, to wisely express and utilize that valid knowledge and understanding in the real world."
– Tragedy & Hope Media
The Trivium Method is the 3-Fold Path of Truth-Discovery. It is the true scientific method and is how consciousness processes and creates reality. The word trivium comes from Latin 'tria' meaning "3," and the Latin 'via' meaning "path; way." So, together, it means "the three paths" or "the place where three roads meet."
These metaphorical roads must be traveled in order:
Knowledge → Understanding → Wisdom
Too many people are ensconced in the belief that there is no such thing as objective truth, that everything is simply subjective opinion. Nonsense. Truth IS objective, and it CAN be discovered and known by anyone with the desire for it. You can't depend on it being given to the masses in any exoteric way (like religion and other dogmatic belief systems). It must be desired and discovered for yourself. The Trivium Method is a tool which can help you in that process; but in order to use it properly and successfully, you have to let go of your belief systems, or push them aside. Truth isn't about what you believe, it's about Knowledge... about What Is. Belief is irrelevant.
You also need keep your thinking holistic. The Trivium cannot work properly if you root yourself in Left-Brain dominance or Right-Brain dominance. They need to be balanced.
THE TRIVIUM PROCESS
Knowledge / Grammar / Input Stage
Gathering all of your raw data/information from an eclectic variety of sources without pre-judging it, without letting any current belief systems edit and criticize it; taking it in objectively. This step answers the "who, what, where, and when."
Understanding / Logic / Processing Stage
Processing and analyzing the information without bias, filtering out any and all logical fallacies and inconsistencies; weeding out the dross, and coming to an understanding of that information as it is; aligning your perceptions with the truth that you've discovered. This step answers the "why."
Wisdom / Rhetoric / Output Stage
After you've gathered your information, processed it and understood it, now your doing the right / correct / moral thing with what you've come to understand. This is what true Wisdom is. This is the "how," the methodology of right action.
​
The information we take in (whether good or bad) and understand (or don't understand) is then output through our behavior, and through that behavior we manifest our reality. It's a co-creative process. Right now, due to our immense ignore-ance of Truth (and our aggregate immoral behavior as a result of that ignorance), we are creating a reality of suffering and slavery. We need to change that dynamic. Knowledge is required, but then Action is required. Nothing changes magically.
Change in the world MUST begin within. We have to do deep introspection (shadow work), admit our wrongs, start taking in the necessary knowledge, align our Thoughts, Emotions and Actions so there are no contradictions between them, and live our lives in harmony with Natural Moral Law. There's no doctrine to follow, no dogma to subscribe to, nothing you need to believe in (besides yourself), no church or lodge you need to join. It's quite the opposite. It's the abandonment of belief systems and the discovery of Knowledge of the Self and the Universe.

BECOME UN-MANIPULATABLE
​
Below is a list of several logical fallacies to keep in mind while using The Trivium Method as well as what you can avoid using in conversation. You'll notice that many people do use these fallacies in their arguments, so understanding them can help you in any discussions or debates you may have.
The Dark Occultists who run the world do not want you knowing this methodology which is why it has long been occulted, removed from all modern "education" systems and universities and replaced with ideology and belief. They want us enthralled in post-modern/solipsistic thinking, that everything is subjective and relative and based on feelings. If we believe truth isn't real, then it follows that we'll begin believing that morality isn't real, rights aren't real, and freedom isn't real.
When you've mastered the Trivium and fully understand the common fallacies below, not only will you have the tools to discover the truth, no one will ever be able to manipulate you.

"No human being who is in their center can be hypnotized. No human being... who is being guided, who is close to their intuition, who has a sharp, critical apparatus, who has a sharp sense of judgement – can ever be manipulated; not for any permanent or lasting length of time. They can be diluted temporarily... but it's like a muscle you have to keep on working on; a muscle you have to keep on sharpening."
– Michael Tsarion, Architects Of Control (documentary)
COMMON LOGICAL FALLACIES
AD HOMINEM
"What you're saying cannot be true because you're gay, or Republican, or ugly, etc."
THE STRAW MAN
When a person simply ignores a person's actual position and substitutes a distorted, exaggerated or misrepresented version of that position. This sort of "reasoning" has the following pattern:
1. Person A has position X.
2. Person B presents position Y (which is a distorted version of X).
3. Person B attacks position Y.
4. Therefore X is false/incorrect/flawed.
This sort of "reasoning" is fallacious because attacking a distorted version of a position simply does not constitute an attack on the position itself.
APPEALS TO AUTHORITY
"What you're saying cannot be true because you're not a doctor, or you don't have credentials, or you're not a recognized authority."
BEGGING THE QUESTION
Commonly used by religionists.
1."I know this is fact because it was written by God."
2. How do you know it was written by God?
3. "Because it's says so in the Bible."
You can't use the same source that you're reading from as proof of the claim that you're making.
APPEALS TO POPULARITY
"Most people agree that meat is good, so eating animals is okay."
1. Most people approve of X (have favorable emotions towards X).
2. Therefore X is true.
RELATIVIST FALLACIES
When a person rejects a claim by asserting that the claim might be true for others but is not for him/her.
1. Claim X is presented.
2. Person A asserts that X may be true for others but is not true for him/her.
3. Therefore A is justified in rejecting X.
APPEALS TO BELIEF
"What you're saying cannot be true because it doesn't fit the ideology or doctrine that I believe."
1. Most people believe that a claim, X, is true.
2. Therefore X is true.
APPEALS TO FEAR
"If you don't do this, all of these bad things will happen. Therefore, you have to do it."
1. Y is presented (a claim that is intended to produce fear).
2. Therefore claim X is true (a claim that is generally, but need not be, related to Y in some manner).
This line of "reasoning" is fallacious because creating fear in people does not constitute evidence for a claim.
APPEALS TO TRADITION / COMMON PRACTICE
"It must be true because we've always done it this way."
1. X has been done for a long time.
2. Therefore X is correct/moral/justified/reasonable, etc.
APPEALS TO RIDICULE
You make a claim, and someone says "your claim isn't true because HAHAHA." Or, "1+1=2!? That's the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard!"
1. X, which is some form of ridicule presented (typically directed at the claim).
2. Therefore claim is false.
This sort of "reasoning" is fallacious because mocking a claim does not show that it is false.
APPEALS TO EMOTION
"It isn't true because it makes me feel uncomfortable."
1. X makes person feel bad.
2. Therefore, X is false.
PERSONAL INCREDULITY FALLACY
If you have difficulty understanding how or why something is true, that doesn't automatically mean the thing in question is false. A personal or collective lack of understanding isn't enough to render a claim invalid.
​
1. Person doesn't understand X.
2. Therefore, X is false.
