Moving out of that “notch” of the neutral biocomputer state, becoming activated, whether receptive or directed, there are further possibilities.

Those who cannot, may view this as the only reality: we’ve seen the symbolic “conscience versus the shadow” roadblock here.

As far as attention goes, rather than just us being selective, its becoming interconnected and more multifaceted. There’s two sides to this. There’s other orientations of ways and realities opening up here.

So, when we “move,” we’re out of the roadblock. There’s other avenues in us to follow. This should be the number one thing, our moves forward, rather than the shadow thing, that we seem to be getting out there all the time.

Yes, we could say “other,” rather than shadow. Like the other parts of the jig saw puzzle, which can also be more sophisticated and interconnected within the bigger picture, the figure/ground is open to potential.

What you are seeing here are my evolutions of themes, and “adjustments,” when I seem to get something into perspective better. Assimilations and accommodations.

We’re in a position of creativity here, as well . . . the use of further ideas, metaprogramming, imagination to put this into perspective, like a poet, or an artist, like going for a hike in nature and later gathering up and working on one’s photos.

“When uncontrolled by virtue (dharma) and the big stick (danda), men become wolves unto men.” p.64

“The required method to this end is known as the turning about of the energy, which is to say, simply, an application of all the available malice and aggression of cakra 3, not outward to the correction of the world, but inward, upon oneself . . . “ p.66

The Inner Reaches of Outer Space: Metaphor as Myth and Religion; Joseph Campbell; Harper and Row; 1986.

The turning about of energy is like Washburn’s delineation, moving from that first differentiation, ego, and then back towards the ground. Heart. Alchemy, turning lead into Gold. People. I got that intermediate stage, of intent and figure/ground; interest, and becoming more multifaceted. Here, I was able to get beyond the externalization issue, and the colloquial psychoanalysis. A more sophisticated approach and understanding:”A self entwined within an interactive field of meaning and knowledge.”

This was pretty much a redo: check this out! An initial core experience.
