A Glossary Of Terms Concocted Or/And Conscripted By One Man (J.C.)
To Highlight Certain Features Of That Fantastic Private Investigation,
(Along With Related Case Material).
__________________________________________________________________________

(Part 12 of a series which broke out on August 31.  Since this collection covers many years there may be multiple & subsequent definitions to all entries.
[Words capitalized means they have appeared else where in his comments concerning this case.])

A - Z
(Not Strictly Alphabetically)
______________________






Time Zones: (1) The three designations (past, present  future) that man’s mind
has contrived reflect a normally overlooked fact that these three concepts have a corollary in the Three Forces (C, D & E: constructive, destructive & e-relevant)
and also a connection to man’s Three Circuits (Red symbolizing body;
Blue, emotions & Yellow, mind).
(2) The past is where tearing down seems most salient (D Force)
and the future the place dedicated to creative planning (C Force),
and then with most men’s appreciation of the instant moment being worthy of such
little notice as to be irrelevant (E Force);
witness to the above borne by men expressing such common sentiments as being:
“depressed about the past”  –   “excited about the future.”
(3) More subtle but just as real is the nexus between the past, present & future,
and the activities of man's Three Circuits,
each one’s strongest proponent being the body, emotions and mind respectively.
(4) The man trying to get-to-the-bottom-of-things eventually becomes aware of
the useless and quite distracting effect this sense of time natural to man,
has on his consciousness and thus, efforts;
this collectively human held sense of a divided, always passing time causes his consciousness (as manifested in the Yellow Circuit) to continually feel that it should be performing other than it is presently doing, or should be directing the other two circuits to be doing so; certain pressures clearly serve survival purposes,
but the inner investigator discovers that in his special instance,
most of the stresses normal to man are detrimental to The Aim of solving The Case.
(5) The goal of the certain man is like a time zone that does not exist yet;
as if it is somewhere east of the present and at right angles to the past.
The special inner exploration ultimately takes a man up to the edge of
normally perceived reality whereat he can look out beyond what automatic-consciousness says: “is-now; was-then; may be tomorrow”
to a place where “is” is omnipresent and undivided.
(6) To awake from the dream is to be no longer under the illusory gun of time zones;
you either understand what is going on now  –   or you never will.

Truth: Man’s truth is perishable, and does not travel well, neither in time nor spatially; ideas from india are not a new yorker’s best nourishment.

Voices: (1) There are two voices other than those previously mentioned,
which correspond to the two ways human lives are affected:
there is the voice of events (what happens out-there)
and your cellular voice (what goes on in-here).
(2) The voice of events-out-there speaks to no one personally (i.e.):
events in and of themselves are of no consequence  –
nothing matters except your cellular voice editorializing to consciousness concerning what is taking place in you in response to the events.
Events-out-there can kill you (an earthquake) but they can’t upset you --
not until your cellular voice announces your anger at the looting that followed it.
Men can live with the voice of events (they have no choice),
it is their personal cellular one that makes life irksome;
in some circumstances this leads to a man inventing new technology to alleviate the irritating conditions (air conditioning for torrid climates), while in most men’s everyday intangible circumstances the cellular voice does nothing but annoy them,
(though things in man are so arranged that he blames events-out-there
[someone insulted his religion] and not the cellular voice in-here that delivers
the genetically/temperamentally preordained reaction thereto.
Thus do standard humans let earthquakes slide; give hurricanes a free pass,
but are helplessly infuriated (as they are clearly supposed to be
for the health of man’s cultural, civilized world) by another human’s remark.

Words: (1) There is no truth in words: there is coeval: all truth in words.
(2) Words speak for themselves as well as for the person from whom they came.
(3) There is no truth in words because sound is linear and reality is not;
the consciousness from which words ostensibly emerge cannot comprehend an everything-occurring-at-once reality, and must make-do: the make-do is words: verbal abstractions of reality.
(4) Words serve as cover ups for lack of understanding
(keep talking about it and who will notice that you don’t know about it).
(5) Chew toys for the mind.
(6) Energy to go.
(7) Yellow Circuit’s blood.
(8) Door of ordinary prisoners’ mental cell;
part of the exit strategy for those who escape.

The World Is Big Enough For Everybody: If it weren’t  –   they wouldn’t be here;
thus does the inner outlier understand that there is no one to criticize;
if they’re here  –   they’re doing their job (whatever it is).

Upper/Lower Circuit Hungers: Upper circuit hungers are an unsatisfiable,
non edible version of lower circuit desires,
and while the latter are essential for living, the former are only so for living in the city:  for functioning in man’s collectively imagined cultural & spiritual metropolis.
Hungers in the lower circuits have a time of appearance and can also be observed to have been terminated at a specific moment,
but those in the upper circuit have no beginning and certainly no cusp, or else the carousel would have an end and would thus bring same to man’s much significant intangible realm.
Lower circuit hungers are a matter of necessity; upper circuit ones, matters of status and position.
Stout will make falstaff stout, but only his wit will get him pints free.

Used Food: Yellow Circuit ideas obtained from another person,
as opposed to fresh food produced by your own investigations.

Welfare (Living On): Existing on externally acquired information.

Zipperness: (1) Feeling of objective pleasantness based on the impersonal awareness that what is good for Life is good for you (even if you can’t realize it).
(2) Zipperness is happiness sans self interest;
a feeling about Life not tied to your feelings about yourself.
(3) Zipperness is having no-good-reason.

(We conclude with a few of today’s news stories).

Patient: “It’s the side effects of treatments that kill you  –   not the illness itself.”
Physician: “No it’s not.”
“Then what?”
“I’m not at liberty to say.”
(One man was camped just outside of liberty when the drano kid got it.)
 
 
 

One man claims: “I have never left a woman lacking an orgasm who wanted one,”
and his consciousness snapped: “Too bad you can’t say the same about me.”
 
 
 

Author’s Tip.
No matter your subject (from agriculture to zoology) you will be assured a big seller
by titling your book: “Why You Are Special.”
 
 
 

A father said to a son:
“Anyone who begins their response to a question by saying:
‘That is a very good question’ –  doesn’t know the answer to the question.”
    “But you've indicated that no one knows the answer to anything.”
“Well.....yeah  –  but they don’t have to publicly let on.”
 
 
 

Apparently influenced by the FBI’s attitude:
one guy looks at the activity automatically going on in his mind as a
disorganized criminal enterprise.
 
 
 

One reason ordinary people like to talk is that it makes the ideas they express
thereby somehow seem more substantial.

(“What’s the point of a fart if no one hears it!?”)
