Says
one man: “If you’re going to keep yourself on track,
every
day you have to come up with a whole new bag of private razzle-dazzle.”
As
he lay in bed looking at the sleeping naked body of the woman who so enthralled
him, a man mused: “And it's nothing but flesh –
and
yet it is not her flesh that excites me, but MY hormones.”
(Compare
this to consciousness and the thoughts that therein appear.)
How
Words Can Lead To Exciting New Worlds Of Adventure.
After
opening a restaurant he named: Evan's
House Of Griddlecakes,
and
discovering how often people called it: House
Of Girdlecakes,
one
man began serving up grill fried women’s foundation garments.
(Compare
with some people’s notion of what constitutes, success.)
This
e-mail just in: “Sir: Though some of your stories do make me laugh,
I
do not understand why – since I find none of them actually
funny.
Yours,” etc.
Taking
a cue from tv news anchors: on days when he didn’t want to appear,
one
man would announce that today he was: “Off
on special assignment.”
If
you want to see someone who has no conception of what consciousness is
capable
of, look at those who, after relaying some human incident they find curious
say: “You couldn’t make this stuff up.”
Dialogue.
“What’s
the difference between a novelist and a historian?”
“What’s the difference between a man with a dumb question
and a dumb man with a question.”
Just
to put his automatic-consciousness on edge, one guy (in an off-hand kind
of way) likes to periodically shout out: “Hot tumors! –
get your hot tumors right here!”
One
man's advice: “If you can ever draw a bead on either of ‘em –
shoot ‘em!”
An
Example Of Criticism On The Cutting Edge.
A
critic in his review of a book criticizing another critic’s earlier review
of the work. (You can’t make this stuff up.
Oops.)
“Which
is better: being alive, or not thinking about the fact that you’re dying?”
“But that’s unfair: one of them is like losing something you can never
find again.”
“Yeah,
but it's not as bad as finding something that you can then never be rid
of.”
Although
proverbial wisdom holds that you cannot talk your way into heaven:
seating
at mrs. sprat’s
table is gained strictly via fat.
Only
the coin unique to a particular realm will gain you entry thereto.
How
Mind Works.
You
can announce to consciousness that you are weary of talking about it
and
are going to begin talking about emotions,
then
simply plug in the word, emotions where consciousness would normally be,
continue
talking about consciousness and it will never catch on.
At
the cellular level: everything is known (that is):
everything
is known that CAN be known (more precisely):
everything
that Life
can know about itself in this Universe.
How
Neurons Can Navigate When Faced With The Incoming Tide Of Hormones.
“The
main advantage I see to being an octopus,” said an octopus,
“is
that when you say: ‘Bite my tentacles’
it carries more weight than when said by
a
clam for instance.”
If
you live in the city: it is your duty to do whatever you feel it is your
duty to do.
Since
he couldn’t bring his self to hate his own clumsiness, one man instead
despised the objects into which he bumped.
(“Hey,.”
snarled consciousness, “you don’t fool me – you’re back talking
about me again somewhere in all that.”)
Things
can go up and things can go down, but no on expects them to go sideways.
From
a human perspective you could say that at the pre-conscious,
fauna
and flora level, Life
is fatalistic about its position in this Universe,
but
after consciousness --
it is a quite different story.
(Ponder that,
if you like.)
Ordinary
consciousness brings the sensation of knowing more than you know,
perhaps
more than you can ever know (least under its
stewardship).
Said
one man’s Yellow Circuit:
“The worst part of making a decision is
wondering
whether you made the best
decision.”
Being
more awake is sort of like making all the green lights on a long drive.
Everybody
fits in a mold – even those who believe they don’t.
Nothing
is as comforting as the familiar --
and
nothing as uncomfortable as the unfamiliar
(if you have a
Yellow Circuit).
After
hearing someone comment (regarding a debate between two people over who
was the oldest, one of them with a birth certificate, and the one claiming
seniority without): “The leading cause of extreme longevity is
not
knowing when you were born,” a man was moved to muse:
“And
the primary cause of believing you are extremely enlightened
is
not realizing how stupid you are.”
Introductory
Comments That Could Be Made Concerning The Aim.
Man
is distracted but through certain efforts can focus;
man
is confused but through certain efforts can be certain;
man
is cloudy eyed but through certain efforts can develop clear vision;
man
by nature wants to believe
--
a few however, can know.

While you're in the dark,
the whole thing seems like a shot in the dark --
but just you wait.
