Why People Believe in Superstitions, the Supernatural, and the Paranormal

Hi Lesk....ancient reference to the senses expressed as "the vine of Heaven"...you just have to understand the words and realize that our senses are like a vine, their root is consciousness so the vine must grow and interconnect, spread out so to speak and in those interconnections lies the mystery of consciousness...
Taurus and Venus representing the physical senses and beyond and "to decipher" is symbolically represented as "the corona of the Sun" or the nerve system to the heart which is the true seat of consciousness, not the physical brain in our head....

As Carl Jung stated.."the ancient gods were symbolic representations of the human psyche..." for example Zeus...means..."consciousness."

COSMIC CONSCIOUSNESS
A "Conversation"
T.D.A. Lingo and Neil Slade

[Lingo]: Cosmic Consciousness is the radio carrier wave upon which advanced problem-solving teaching/leaning information is communicated from an advanced civilization to a growing civilization.
Cosmic Consciousness is distributed uniformly throughout universe with space/time/energy/matter. Once one perceives the Self within this unified reality field, infinitude of being begins.

Cosmic Consciousness transmits data from brain #1 to brain #2 in zero time, regardless of distance; regardless of position of planets within the galaxy; regardless of position of galaxies within the universe.

[Slade]: Descriptions of "cosmic consciousness" arise from various spiritual, religious, and mystical sources, and now more recently from the perception and experience of brain lab participants after a program of internal brain self-control. The experience is a peak emotional and intellectual understanding", a nearly indescribable feeling of contentment and unity with all existence, all other beings, and the entire universe. It is demonstrated by accurate paranormal perception: telepathy, pre-cognition, clairvoyance, clairaudience, and telekinesis.

Traditionally, this experience follows intense religious practice or long periods of reflection or meditation, and may only come unpredictably after years or decades of work. In contrast, brain lab participants routinely reported this experience after from two weeks to three years of personal self-therapy and brain study. The conclusion has been that one can follow a procedure that predictably causes the experience to happen, and that it is based on self-stimulation and control of certain definable brain organs and processes.

Reports of the experience suggests that each human being is situated inside an infinitely big/small field of intelligence, within a field of cosmic intelligence. Lingo states that the nature of this field is: 1) unified 2) like a radio wave 3) that information and data can he sent from one being/consciousness terminal (brain/person/animal/plant?) to another without perceptual time lag. Although radio waves seem instantaneous, they in fact travel at a certain speed within time. Apparently, the intended comparison with radio waves is not that of speed, but that cosmic consciousness, like radio waves, are transmitted via a form of non-visible energy, like electromagnetic radiation. Unlike radio waves, it is implied that cosmic consciousness travels instantly by some other mode, yet unidentified, faster than light.

It may be that the cosmic consciousness field in some way reflects the origin of the universe from a singular point, and that a vestige of the singular unity remains in every atom, now separated across the expanded universe. Cosmic Consciousness may be the connection and awareness of all things, originally being a singularity: In every atom, a universal holographic memory of the rest of the universe. This being said, consciousness may be seen to exist with, yet separate from, and beyond the limitations of physical reality, time, and space.

Most astrophysicists have concluded that the universe originated from one point, a singularity, in which all matter exploded from an infinitely dense single point. Originally everything in the universe was one and the same thing. What if everything in the universe is still one end the same thing? What if physical reality itself is only an illusion of consciousness? What if the only thing that actually changed- expanded - was consciousness?

Scientists have looked deeper and deeper at the sub-atomic structure of atoms, electrons, and quarks, and ultimately they get down to the point where all they see is the vibration of light- no stuff- just vibration. I would suggest that the universe may not exist at all except for a conscious description of it: All is in fact connected, all exists simultaneously, all is one thing, in one place - everywhere - and at no place at the same time. The Big Bang was just an event of consciousness expansion. We are situated on a relative point in consciousness-time-space, on the imaginary landscape that we are convinced is real by our present (yet ever changing) consciousness definition.

Paranormal-beyond-time/space-perception, such as accurate pre-cognition and telepathy, point to the super-reality of cosmic consciousness unity. Perception beyond space and time are possible because there imay be, in fact, no separation between events and matter, except in consciousness.

[Lingo] Tuning into cosmic consciousness is not the prime goal of brain evolution. Such tuning is given to each infant at birth; merely is tuned out by neurally ignorant parents/culture; merely is re-tuned via meditation procedures within the still viable young adult. Re-tuning into cosmic consciousness merely is the pre-requisite for tuning into the "announcer" speaking required intelligence over the carrier wave; speaking specific answers to specific questions properly programmed by lesser brain #2 to greater brain #1. Proper Computer" [human brain] teaching/learning/growing causes automatic genius; evolution.

For thousands of years, mystics have tuned into the carrier wave; have allowed their imperfect egos to be overwhelmed and seduced by the experience. Thus have they been blinded to the next step; dialog. Via neural cybernetics, the average student clears his/her backward child ego perfectly, transcends to egoless cosmic consciousness, and then starts dialog with his/her precisely proper cosmic teacher. Obviously, fools are not allowed into this precious survival growth/evolution network. Survival of the fittest brains.

The wise student is identified quickly by

1) The excellence of his/her question programming, and
2) The excellence of his/her received answers transformed into work for mankind and humanity; for future children.
The information and answers one receives via cosmic communication with other intelligences or pure intelligence itself is dependent on the nature of the QUESTION and communication itself, and the open mindedness of the individual seeking answers from cosmic consciousness. If one looks for a simple answer, this is what will likely be received. Similarly, if one looks for a complicated cosmic dialog or no dialog at all, or refutes the transmission of communication, this "I affect or negate such transmission. This is the quantum theory of consciousness communication: Observations are shaped by the inquiry itself. To illustrate: the design and size of a radio telescope determines the kind of information that is received- but does not determine the quantity, quality, or kind of information that is available and actually exists in the universe.

Mystic cosmic consciousness is the last incredibly subtle demonstration of ego imperfection. Neural cybernetic cosmic consciousness is the first routine demonstration of egoless perfection of the cosmic worker.

The all perceptive cosmic worker simply enjoys the two way communication daily; outward into immediate environment to solve short/long range practical problems within his/her chosen sector of given society; inward to "Big Computer in the Sky," to "Big Daddie," when one gets stuck on an arithmetic or geometric progression of growth.

What conventional culture would traditionally attribute to inner reflection, thought, and intuitive decision-making is now suggested to be affected by external intelligences- via cosmic consciousness- which transmits actual knowledge across time and space from distinctly different intelligent entities. A person aware of this fact may then deliberately make open dialog with such intelligence in any circumstance without knowing where or who the source of helpful knowledge, by merely tuning into intelligence via cosmic consciousness.
The method to achieve cosmic consciousness via eastern mysticism is elitist; via Western scientism is mass multipliable into pragmatic personal ecstasy and planetary consciousness technology [i.e., "clicking the amygdala forward" and other such simple neuroscience brain self-control].

The method to achieve cosmic consciousness via this program is through the class texts; is routinely demonstrated by advanced students. The method merely requires neural retrogression into child cognitive ego, self-therapy of abused circuits, then automatic self-circuiting into frontal lobes, the nirvana experience and cosmic consciousness. The secondary rewards of automatic sleep writing, daily boring, joy, identity fulfillment, and balanced inward/outward living merely are secondary. The primary voluptuousness is the infinite ingenuity of creative production for others. A mast - therapist/teacher bestows cosmic consciousness upon any sincere student merely via creative guidance into cooperative consciousness.

The Cosmic Consciousness experience can be achieved by application of relatively simple brain self-control procedures, althoug the exact methods and time spent employing these techniques seem to be highly variable. Most recently, persons have reported results in increasingly shorter periods of time, without doing the deepest self-therapy work. This could be attributed to more efficient and accurate techniques developed in recent years, or just that people are now included in the larger database who are more prone to have the experience. Whether or not these results are largely temporary, or in fact define new shortcuts to permanent changes in awareness, is yet to he seen.

This is pretty real stuff for us who don't even exist (as you say):

People believe anything…

At least you achieved voluptuousness…

Leskey,

I wouldn't have wanted the murderer's sweater either, but only because I would be thinking of his life. Otherwise if I really needed it, I wouldn't think that evil was transferrable from hairs attached or anything; plus you could launder the sweater.

Mikal,

Sweetie Pie, about Taurus the Bull and in general about astrological signs being mapped to the body or to other places:

The signs of the heavens are only stars; they have no causal power; no explanatory power; they are not even together as some stars are much further away; only the human imagination makes very rough connect-the-dots pictures which wouldn't even be there from another angle; Taurus is not a bull nor does he have any properties of a bull; an ancient guy tried to symbolically interpret something, but there is no "something" from which to interpret anything. All is bull-oney!

That what SEEs all, cannot SEE itself.

The ONE sun that cast no shadow is the caster of all shadows.

I don't subscribe to this shadowy belief system, nor to all the other arbitrarily made up systems, since obviously, they are all different and so very many someones are trying to pull a fast one even upon themselves.

Hi Mel...thanks for information! I have experienced cosmic consciousness so have studied it also to assure myself that I was simply not crazy with all the experience comprised within this sphere of consciousness. I would have to tell you that this is what others refer to as "oneness" and although very beautiful to experience it is difficult and time consuming for consciousness in other words to settle down into a stable and ordered state.

What I don't agree with in the above writing is the statement that we are existing in an imaginary landscape. This world, my life, me, my family, my children...this is all real, very real!!

I know one thing for sure, one cannot understand the knowledge the ancients left behind until cosmic consciousness is experienced.Cosmic consciousness is the state of being completely intuitively open. It is a much greater state of awareness than normal conscious awareness. Everything they left behind can be decifered and read.

The Universal Acid

As a boy in chemistry class, I wondered, as did many, about the following scenario often dreamt of:

I mixed two compounds, which, unfortunately, produced the ultimate acid. Nothing could contain it. It quickly ate though the container, the floor of the laboratory, and then even all the way through the earth, eventually sloshing some poor sap in China.

This, too is what happens to us, through education, as our chemical-bio-electric nature is revealed to us, like some kind of giant shock, after which we will never be the same again, as perhaps some are now reeling from, well, maybe just a little bit.

The biochemical mush that is us, when fully realized, leaves us stunned and astounded. We grasp for what we once thought we were before, but it eludes us in the new light of learning.

The universal acid of such knowledge eats through all superstitions, folk tales, and myths. Nothing can contain it.

We may come to even regret our learnings of this condition, for it dissolves our container, leaving us floundering in the lurch. It happened to me, too, beginning in fifth grade, in Catholic school.

But, wait, it’s not so bad, is it, for what we are is what we are, and we still have feelings, personality, and more adventures of learning that await. The light of education ever shines brightly, wherever it may lead. Many dark alleys remain to be explored, given our new insight into the human condition.
