A
man with a life long interest in the particular activity reported on here
surmises:
“It
seems to me that those persons who do finally awaken to what life is really
about must have a totally different talking relationship with their mind
than everyone else; based on the ultimate outcome --
how can it be otherwise.
If
every day you hear the same familiar whistle,
it
will keep your train going to the same old place --
no where."
“Don’t you intend to say that hearing the same familiar whistle means
that your train
is going to the same old place, not that hearing it causes
the train to do so?!”
"Yours
would seem the rational version, but consider again what I initially suggested
regarding those who wake-up having a completely different verbal relationship
with
their mind.
(Perhaps
this might clarify your perception of it):
Can
you and your mind together conceive of a reality wherein merely the acknowledgment
of hearing an apparent train whistle creates a train that
was
not there before?"

how to radically alter the conversing that goes on in your brain
and
you can make the damn thing spill the real beans: let all felines out of
all bags,
and
run all imaginary choo choos into a black hole tunnel.
Ring
Up Another One For The Mind.
While
you cannot fool people about your physical abilities (such as saying you
can jump twenty feet into the air when it can be easily tested),
you
can certainly do so regarding intangible ones (such as claiming supernatural
forces speak to you, or that you recognize The
Truth, real art, and proper thinking
when
you witness it) and it cannot be proven otherwise.
Livers
are stuck with what they are born with
-- not so a certain area of the
brain.
(Okay,
to be technically correct: not apparently
so a certain area.
“Hey,”
chimes in every man’s normal mind, “apparently
is good enough for me!” --
and the thing is: it is!
[All
right, being as precise as possible: it is good enough for all but a certain
few.])
Ordinary
thinking believes that in the act of 1 plus 2 equaling 3,
either
1 or 2 is the factor that determines the sum;
the
real-deal-man swallows whole, the math-of-the-intangibles,
(it
is the only way he ultimately settles his mental digestion).
The
less unusual you are the more you will talk about your professed individual,
special features.
“Any
clever bit, done the second time is not as clever.”
“Well any idiot knows that.”
“Really?”
“Yes.”
“Are
you sure?”
“Yes.”
“Absolutely?”
“Yes.”
?
huh?!
The
first kid said:
“I
have a ladder,”
and
his brother responded:
“I
have a roof,”
and
the first one restated:
“But
I have a really tall
ladder,”
to
which his sibling replied:
“And
I have a really high
roof,”
at
which moment their mother appeared and said:
“Now
you children quit squabbling --
you
know you’re going to end up playing in the basement anyway,”
and
they both moaned: “Ah, mom!”
The
information about life available through man’s collective thinking will
at best
get
an individual through kindergarten.
The
Hormones/Neurons Nervous System Balancing Act.
“Have
you noticed,” asks one man, “that extremely attractive people
aren’t
interested in achieving Enlightenment?
--
and pondered: Why?”
When
not engaged in eating, man’s nervous system loves to tell tales.
Another
episode in the continuing drama:
The
City Looks After Its Own (Or At Least Its Self).
A
certain musician with no ability to improvise has proclaimed this condition
as the: “Latest development in jazz.”
“Wow! Does this mean that somewhere in
Morpheus’ Magic Kingdom
slugs are the supreme flyers?!”
“Yes
my friends and admirers: I am so
dense and ungrasping that I must surely be Enlightened!
--
how else can you explain a condition as extraordinary as mine?!"
An
attorney notes that he likely missed considerable income from his failure
to
pursue
malpractice litigation,
having
lost heart in same after realizing that everyone is incompetent.
Not
just men, but life too wants to get to the bottom of things (specifically
two):
it
wants to get to the bottom of the universe and to the bottom of itself.
“The
wild animal I most hate dealing with around my house,” says one city dweller,
“is
the possum --
‘cause they’re so slow witted you can’t frighten them away.”
and
his residential thoughts muttered: “Watch it buster! --
don’t
forget that I can spot symbolic descriptions of myself when I hear ‘em.”
In
times of impending stress one man’s approach he sums up in the words:
“Don’t
get sick --
get even.”
(With whom or what he leaves unsaid.)
There
is an impotence that results from the diffusion of responsibility (to wit):
neither
a testor nor a testee be: keep all inquires in-house.
Among
ordinary people you do not have to verbally commit nervous system hara
kiri and bowel spilling to be sociable;
only
private activity will open up the certain man in the certain manner needed
to achieve his goal of seeing what is going on for himself and through
his own eyes/I’s.
Remember:
To live in the city is to be safe
(well,
at least as safe as a sleepwalker can be in those conditions).
Humor
News.
Ordinary
minds are only comfortable with stories wherein the punch line
always
comes at the end.
Only
the real-deal-mind can come in in the middle of a tale telling,
and
have it make just as much sense as otherwise;
indeed:
one feature of such consciousness could be thus described:
Anything
that ordinary minds say means as much as anything else they say.
(“Strips pretty well the fat from the bone, what?!”)
People
with a strong suspicion that they’re goofy
particularly
dislike being made fun of.
(Those
who know that they and everyone else are --
don’t care.)
Everyone’s full of guts -- few of understanding.
Local
Conditions said to a man: “Shall we
dance?” --
and
when homo subjectus
nodded his acquiescence, L.C.
added:
“Shall
I
lead so that we do the dispiriting tango?”
It
is reported that the final words of a rebel who had not spoken in ten years
were:
“I
will pinch hit for no one but me.”
You
live in universal conditions: which you can see and measure;
local
conditions live in you: which no one can see or measure;
put
them all together, they spell:
Confusion (or): ordinary-state-of-consciousness,
wherein
Shit
continually mistakes himself for his old friend, Shinola.
Economics
Update.
A
mind on a budget will think
on a budget.
It
is not a matter of whether you have a black or calico cat
but
whether you have housebroken him;
when
all the doors to your place have been thrown open,
the
only difference between a meow
and a roar
is the spelling.
(“But my gawd! --
how are you ever going to box train a lion?!”
Turn
him inside out --
same as how the real-deal-man treats all mental creatures.)
Chit
Chat.
“Once
you understand hipness you don’t have to speak as though you do.”
“Is it the same with being awake?”
“Huh?”
Once
you realize what is really going on
you
have no interest in correcting those who don’t.

One
guy asks: “Have you ever thought about the possibility that only an awakened
man is dead forever?"
