PIP III: Personal Identity Profile Version 3

The PERSONAL IDENTITY PROFILE Version III is designed to describe your personality and Transpersonal Self or Soul in terms of certain essential subtle energies that condition all life on earth. According to the teachings of the newest form of psychology - esoteric psychology - these foundational energies emanate from the Sun, and planets of our solar system, from the twelve constellations of the zodiac, and from three major constellations (Sirius, the Pleiades and the Great Bear). From the perspective of esoteric psychology, the energies with which advanced humanity must immediately learn to work are energies emanating from the seven major stars in the Great Bear. The Ageless Wisdom Teaching asserts that the heavenly bodies are far more than massive, inanimate sky-objects; on the contrary, according to the esoteric sciences, the planets, stars and constellations are thought to be the "physical bodies" of great celestial Entities Who have immense intelligence and influence upon all human beings, and many other forms of life of greater and lesser magnitude.

• Download and run the PIP III program for Windows at this link: http://www.astrolog.org/morya/pip3.exe
• Spanish version: Download and run the PIP III translated into Spanish at: http://www.astrolog.org/morya/pip3esp.exe
• Vietnamese version: Download and run the PIP III translated into Vietnamese at: http://www.astrolog.org/morya/pip3viet.exe

• Launch the file "pip3.exe" to run the program and start answering questions. If you click on the link above, you may need to accept security prompts first, in order to run it. It's recommended to save the file somewhere locally (such as to your Windows desktop) instead of just running it out of your Downloads folder, so that you have easier access to the results files it generates.
• The PC PIP III runs only on Windows. Those without access to a Windows computer will have to use a PC or find some way to run PC programs, such as: https://www.pcworld.com/article/2891693/how-to-run-windows-programs-in-a-browser-tab-for-free.html
• There is no Macintosh version of the PIP III at this time. Mac users might be able to run the PC PIP III within an PC emulator, with examples listed at: http://web.archive.org/web/20201126123224/https://appletoolbox.com/top-10-windows-emulator-mac/

Setting Display Properties

• If you want to change the screen properties, right click anywhere in the top bar of the window to open the context sensitive menu, then select "Properties". You can then select text size, text font, and text color. For example, if you want indigo text on a gold background, you can have it.
• Inside screen properties you can also make the window taller so it has more rows of text. You can also just click on the bottom edge of the window and drag to make more rows visible. (Some of the later parts of the test list a lot of things on the screen at once.)
• The PC PIP III runs inside a windows command prompt. That means all new text is displayed at the bottom of the window, and you type your responses at the bottom of the window too. Old text scrolls off the top, similar to a texting chat window on your smartphone. Scrollbars on the command prompt window can be used to view text that has disappeared off the top of the screen.

Answers

• The PIP III test is long, and contains 345 questions. The test is in four parts. Part 1 (Demographics) has 27 questions, Part 2 (Statements) has 141 questions answered for "now" and "formerly". Part 3 (Highest Aspirations) has one select 13 aspirations for "now" and "formerly". Part 4 (Traits to Transform) has one select 5 traits for "now" and "formerly". Altogether there are 27 + 141x2 + 13x2 + 5x2 = 345 questions total.
• Note that when answering the statements in Part 2, you can answer both "formerly" and "now" for a statement at the same time. For example, entering "12" means Definitely True for "formerly" and Usually True for "now". This is a slight shortcut, because doing "12<enter>" is one less keystroke compared to doing "1<enter>2<enter>". You can ignore this option, but some may find it convenient when going through all 141 statements.

Autosave

• If you exit the program part way through, it will remember your progress the next time you start the program. There is no manual "save" command, because it happens automatically.
• If you restart the program with a partially completed test, it will tell you so, and place you at the first unanswered question.
• If you start the program after having completed the entire test, it will tell you so as well, and place you at the beginning if you want to review all your responses.
• The name of the save file is "pip3.sav", and its contents are identical to what gets e-mailed to us at the end. This file gets automatically loaded when you start pip3.exe, and you shouldn't double click on pip3.sav to try to load it.
• Two people can be part way through taking the test on the same computer, if their save files are kept separate. One way to do this is to temporarily copy pip3.sav when a new person wants to start taking the test, and then copy your own save file back when you want to continue. However, an easier method is to just download a second copy of pip3.exe and place it in a different Windows folder, so that it will have its own pip3.sav file in a separate location.

Commands

The PIP III test has several commands which can be entered at any time in place of an answer while running the PC PIP. Type the name of a command and then press <enter> to invoke it:

• ENTER: Not typing anything and just pressing <enter> for a question will stop with the warning to "please enter something" if you haven't already answered that question yet. If you have already answered that question, then it will keep the old value (and give you a notice of the old value it's using). This makes it easy to review responses, because you can just back up, and then hold down the <enter> key to browse through all your answers.
• UNDO: Takes the user back to the previously answered question. Revisiting old responses (such as with the "undo" command) will display that you answered that question before, and also show how you answered it. This makes it easy to review responses.
• BACK, NEXT: The "back" and "next" commands will take you backward or jump you forward that many questions in the current section. For example, "back3" to backup and review the previous three questions, or "next 10" to skip the next ten questions.
• GOTO: The "goto" command will jump directly to the statement in question. For example, "goto109" or "goto 109" to jump to statement #109.
• PART: The "part" command will jump to the start of the major section in question. For example, "part1" for intro questions, "part 2" for statements, "part3" for Highest Aspirations, and "part 4" for Traits to Transform.
• LATEST: The "latest" command will jump to the first unanswered question. If you've answered all questions, then the program will proceed to display results. If you reach the end of the test and haven't answered all questions yet, then this command will be done automatically.
• RESTART: The "restart" command will restart the test from scratch, clearing all previous responses and deleting the autosave file. Use with caution!
• HELP: The "help" command will list all these commands.

Output Files

After completing the last question in the test, the program will generate your results in the following files:

• HTML: An HTML format results file "pip3.htm" will be created and automatically displayed in your default browser (e.g. Google Chrome). The pip3.htm file itself will be created in the same folder that you downloaded pip3.exe into, which by default is something like "C:\Users\YourAccount\Downloads".
• Text: A plain text version of the results will be created in the file "pip3.txt". This file won't be automatically displayed, but it may be used with Excel, described below.
• E-mail: An e-mail message containing your raw answers should appear in your default e-mail program (e.g. Outlook). Please take a moment to click the "send" button to send this message to us. If for some reason this e-mail message doesn't appear, then please e-mail us your HTML results file, or rather just the section of text from it at the very end between the "[begin section of text to e-mail us]" and the "[end section of text to e-mail us]" markers. Send it to: Astara@msn.com

Users have the option to display their PIP III report with desktop quality graphics. This requires access to Microsoft Excel.

• Download the PIP III extension for Excel at this link: http://www.astrolog.org/morya/pip3data.xlsx

After you complete the PIP III test, a plain text file called "pip3.txt" will be produced in the PIP III program directory. This file must be imported into the pip3data.xlsx file. To import the pip3.txt file:

1. Open the pip3data.xlsx spreadsheet file in Excel.
2. Select "Data / Refresh All".
3. You will be prompted to select pip3.txt. Navigate to the folder containing your pip3.txt and select it.
4. The vertical bar graphs and other content on the "graphics" tab will be updated to reflect the numbers and content in pip3.txt.
