A few thoughts about humanity

[Carmody]

Internal communication is the highest level.

Spoken conversation with another (speaking out loud) is one layer more primitive.

Communication with a group, is one layer more primitive -again. This, due to the emotional inflections being added in and carrying more weight in the equation.

Communication in a large group has no consciousness and is nearly entirely primitive.

What we, as individuals, tend to not realize, is that the monkey-primate with it's grouped connectivity, is still riding in us and is part of our systems of interaction.

example, millions of individuals protest in Egypt, all there due to internal conversations with themselves. The monkey mind or group mind runs the show -when they gather. There were, what..57 group/gang rapes that were reported in that mess of protests?

To 'reach' a human, you always have to be aware of the primate filter, which is fully integrated and there at all times. when we are calm, we rarely recognize that it is there. But, it is always on, even when sleeping. As sure as a heartbeat, it remains, and is. being aware of it as permanent extant filter and modifier, is key to becoming as free as possible of it's grasp, and moving to be free of it's higher component, the ego.

eg, the genesis of the formation of that voice in the head, that is formed by now autonomous learnings, which is tied to our origins on learning, which was monkey driven and colored.

This is why one can't think when one is in emotionally driven in situations. The ego, the genesis of the internal voice formation, is trying to get you to react and colors the creation of all internal voice 'thought'.

One can only begin the process of finding internal freedom and moving into the actual stage of being a human adult, an enlightened being...... by being conscious of this issue, 24/7, for the rest of their life. Simply being conscious of the issue, and being in 'mind' of it, 24/7, that is one critical way, or method, of what begins the process.

Never cease being aware, in any given moment... of the understanding that the voice in the head, the internal muse, is created and colored by the survival and 'moment to moment' demands of the body. Do not confuse the carrier of the message, the coloration and shaping of the data, with the data itself. What 99% of us call the actual self... is being filtered, colored, shaped and directed by that which creates and shapes the internal voice and internal thought.

This important thought and formation of thought... will probably be one of the biggest challenges in your life. The body, the creator of that internal voice, will fight you every inch of the way, as it can only see it's disintegration and change...as a direct threat. As, after all, you are trying to shut down the autopilot - which is what it is.

Just listening to:

So, you ask, where's the immortality, the freedom from dimensional barriers, the connection to all, the intense psychic energies?

It is backward, inward...through the blocked doorway of the internal autopilot. It's an avatar, a fleshy doorway. Learn how to drive the darned thing.

I recently found this:

"What is compatible with somebody's own pre-existing world-view will be considered simple, clear, logical and evident, whereas what is contradicting that world view will quickly be rejected as an unnecessarily comlpex explanation and a senseless additional hypothesis. In this way, the principle of simplicity becomes a mirror of prejudice..."

The apparent desire for change is contradictory. People are always expressing it, but such desire doesn´t reach beyond the point of what kind of change is most convenient to them as individuals.

Whatsoever is known comes out of the past... that which has already been experienced. There is a strong force to overcome, in order to move into the unknown. The force doesn't come from the past, but its because mind becomes attached to the past, to what has been known.

One cannot desire for something that is unknown. That is not how desire works. Only the known can be desired for. Hence, desire for a something unknown in the future is not possible. One is only capable of projecting a future as it relates to the past, a past experience. So desires are always repetitious, they repeat, they are circular. They come out of the past, that which has already been known, already experienced, & are then projected in future to be repeated again. It makes for a convenient life. The more something is repeated, the more easy & convenient it becomes. The basic thing about something that is a convenience, is that the more it is repeated, the less awareness one needs to have. Awareness is the most inconvenient thing. Repeating something over & over again, and one can almost do it in one's sleep, many are living very sleepy lives.

It is why it is a contradiction in terms - to desire for change. It is a contradiction. Rather, the basic thing is to become more aware. In becoming more aware, then change happens on it own accord.

Very true.
And being open to whatever reality presents itself in a given moment.
Including Freudian slips, lol.

That will then trigger reactions in us that will take us to the next event,
next choice, next commitment, next fight or flight response....
or perhaps no response at all...just observation of the moments energies.
And contemplation.
