Odd — it says there is one comment, already, but I don’t find it.
Went & read the bulk of your trilogy. It’s interesting & I see where it’s useful to you — yet I find it based on many assumptions, some hidden. Instead of where am I, my way begins with what & who am I — at a more fundamental level, as I don’t fully identify with/as the body, or body-mind, as it appears constructivism does.
What if we’re not accurate about our assessment of basic identity? If we start with the brain, upon which your writing focuses, how would constructivism shift if both brain & nervous system were not a repository, but rather a transceiver, able to send & receive signals? The US Army did work in WWII with Native American scouts that seemed to establish that their long hair was required for their tracking skills, giving them hair-cut waivers after the research. Thus, the hair would act as antennae for the transceiver.
What if we live in a thought sphere, comprising the mass mind? Those we pick-up resonate with our current frequency. We have habits of thought resulting in habits of frequency, on which many build their sense of identity. In this view it’s clear that we’re all telepathic, yet by habit of thought — which presumes we are not — we take ownership of whatever thoughts we perceive.
Humanity is not restricted to the body-mind, but is multidimensional, all dimensions currently existing NowHere, somewhat like Russian dolls. We tune-in whatever dimension harmonizes with our frequency. Dreams are not images floating through the brain, but consciousness leaving the body, playing in other dimensions for a time, then returning, which we call waking-up, to the alarm clock or whatever.
Though I’m in my body’s elder years, now, but early on I played around with hallucinogens for a very few years. It hit me at one point that I could not be seeing something that didn’t exist. In a flash, instead of focusing on the colorful flowing patterns dancing on the wall, I refocused on the air between me & the wall. I was shocked, to discover those patterns dancing in the air.
Our Belief Systems — which I now take to be basically BS — structure our reality. We get what we expect. Having long thought of the “hallucinations” as being pretty images on whatever surface I was viewing, it was shocking to discover they’d been in the air all along — only seen on the wall due to my expectations. They’re called “hallucinations” as if they’re not real, but their reality is higher vibrational or higher dimensional — not physical, yet existing, all the same.
On the awakening trek, our whole world comes crumbling down. As we discover the power of beliefs to craft our experience of reality, it’s a severe shift — a reality shift. What I can now say is that nothing is what we take it to be — yet if we don’t turn inward, exploring consciousness & awareness (& I don’t suggest any drugs for this), we’ll never know, taking our illusions to the grave.
While there’s no harm in that, it having been the norm for centuries or longer, yet there’s SO MUCH more available that it can also be seen as a great waste of our natural potential. While the body-mind is limited, we are not. As we become more the observer of mind than the thinker, we begin to take this trek, which eventuates in the shift of our identity out of that, down into or core, our deep Inner Being.
This may as well be the entering of a whole new world. Everything changes, all is reinterpreted, as we release the self from the strictures, the limitations of the previous perspective where we thought we actually were the body-mind. Science mechanistically studying that, thinking it’s studying who we are, have no clue of the MORE they neglect — that we are more spirit than form.
Language & thought are but the maps, not the real territory, after all, which lies within what I call Heart, portal into the inner realm. Only once touching down deeply, there, & you know beyond doubt that this is the real territory the maps have so poorly tried to describe. There’s a deep inner Knowing that can arise, there, that has nothing whatever to do with thought or mind. It’s so “other” that it beggars the ability of language to convey. It cannot — only to another fellow traveler in these inner realms. None of what it offers is accessible to thought or 3D mind, which currently exists in a hacked state, much like The Matrix.
Have fun with your explorations 🌈
