Why Don’t People See The Nature Of Their Existence?

Impressions … my mother smoking herself to death when I came home at Christmas vacations from loathsome boarding school … the woman on a two week summer intensive who said, I want my hair pulled too, because it was what I did on someone else in the group to get her yelling and screaming, then into her wounded crying and final release into lasting healing …

Since childhood I have always been afflicted with ‘Great Mind.’

No-Yes, it is real.

Why don’t people realize the nature of their existence?

I guess they are not usually real enough as they go throughout their day?

They have not been released into their real existence.

Have I now been released into my real existence through these cancer and medication symptoms? I see two home doctors tomorrow, one who had cancer himself.

I just got a popular book by a doctor who came through his cancer to health and goes into what you eat and drink to have a healthy body.

I make a list of my symptoms from cancer? from medication? for the doctors tomorrow to see if I can enlarge my perspective on myself, my condition, any deterioration, what is their treatment and what does it do to me? For new I am doing alternative treatments as well, but how effective and realistic are these new practitioners?

Great Mind? Let’s see … afflicted with Great Mind?

Most people I have found don’t do abstract, conceptual thinking and imaging. They keep to the real world of material things. My free notebook software has flashed an image of a young woman with clothes and a hat on and the word defunker. Some sort of ad.

So people think they are their clothes and material things. They identify with the image in the mirror.

I don’t, never have. I wanted the core of things. My healing work with people was to go to the core with them, something they could not do alone, and so had enormous emotional wounds. I didn’t evoke cures with rational ideas and procedures.

I did process work … Great Mind work … students watched … some fascinated … or were we all just performing?

No, things happened … I penetrated usually the students and clients in performance mode … had a good mind and a big heart and a rich and sudden intuition … so I was good for it … to go where they had not gone before … to go where hardly a therapist in the world could go, as I knew my fellow therapists.

Great Mind. Do always at least a bit more than average or normal. Do a lot more when you can. Give yourself away so that even being saved from ultimate evil and disaster takes more than you can do yourself, takes The Other to come in from the other side.

Now old, a dried, nearly dried fig tree, I don’t do that stuff anytime but must penetrate my own condition and watch carefully the care givers as well as others bold enough to share experiences and advice with me.

Yes, now I can sort out levels of advice usually and where it is coming from. It’s not intellectual but the heart starts vibrating when someone interacts with me in person or via now the Comments section of the blog or emails.

I still have one evil person deliberately trying to upset me, and she does, so this is called the shadow. They hang it around your neck and try and strangle you with their own evil. Jung hinted at having this experience for himself but I’m not sure because he and his followers mythologized him into the Great Man.

Great Mind is not the same thing. I as a person don’t see myself as an archetype in a universal myth, like the Wise Old Man.

I see instead the cosmos and read what the physicists have to say about such an amazing universe.

I watch and see people I know have their buying sprees or whatever material adventures they engage in that day, like being with family or grandchild or whatever it is. I see this is real for them, and even enjoy their lives from a distance. No judgments here anymore. I have built and destroyed a life. My allotment might be nearly over …

Honestly, why do people live? The grand dad out in the street throwing ball with his grandson?

Don’t they know they will do little with their lives but live them?

It’s stunning!

I have been afflicted all my life with the issue, what are the greater ultimates that I can live?

  1. Repair work on emotionally wounded human beings?
  2. Penetrating insights on night dreams shared?

Will any of these dream sharers change their lives sufficiently to catch up with their dreams and dream source and live that superior guidance on a daily basis?

No they won’t. Mine is a lost profession though I have taught a few well.

Yes, they learned to work their dreams, but do they do it on an almost daily basis? I doubt it.

The world follows the news, but who follows their dreams?

I do mostly through huge effort and discipline over several years. Yes, I take dreams and dreamwork seriously.

Is this Great Mind stuff?

Yes, in a grounded way. Why? Because the dreams are incredible in their insights and dramatic teaching situations they give us, and in their transpersonal images, like the sun and the moon together in the dream night sky, or a woman dreaming the snake biting his tail who never heard of Jung, never read mythology, never knew the symbolism, yet dreamed it, just as Jung said happens, and then in her work with me had her fundamental breakthrough … not because of me but because it was time, it was her affliction to be solved so at last she made the commitment to live only from Core Self no matter what happened to her in life. She could have relationships and work but these never could be her gods again. She had contact now with the Core Self.

I know that one also but need the reminders … afflicted in my day today … had to walk a little too far in the city … but recovered … was terribly sleeping in the afternoon … slide into a nap in bed … woke … got a meal for myself … now writing this … now want to study the healing cancer book in preparation for seeing two doctors tomorrow … just a few minutes each … one to evaluate my medications … the other for perspective and diagnosis, which he is reputed to do well ….

Don’t people see this? See the nature of their existence to the core and live from it?

At first when I am too young to be grounded in experience I am afflicted with Great Mind. Then I have to work professionally with people and their archetypes to also ground myself in real world stuff, and having some scares, believe me! Go to university, study, work at boring jobs for years, relate, find out who I can be and do it …

Now I have waves of emotions, thoughts to put somewhere useful, wonderment’s, and questions … am I getting worse or am I getting better? Am I on the right track now or the wrong track now?

Am I? … Am I what, Strephon? What am I supposed to share of myself? … We humans spend our days sharing bits of ourselves with others because?

I only like a few special people to share with me and I with that person because I want to be understood and resonated with if I share some of my real self.

Understand?

    Strephon, Yes I do understand. I get confused and frustarated myself wondering why people settle for a generic life and existence that society shows and tells them they should have. Don’t they understand there is so much more out there for them to be doing? Like understanding the core of anything. I recieve comments from others on how much my life has changed and where I am now. They remark how great it is, how they admire the change, and then there is the big “BUT”… you know it’s coming. The list of excuses of why they can’t embark on their own self discovery. I think the same as I watch others living life day to day doing the generic things everyone does.”Is this it for them? Are they really happy? Are they just following the standard quoe”? I have found a strong desire within others to know the core of themselves, but I have also discovered most just don’t want to do the work required for the discovery. This I have heard many times. It amazes me. They do see a glimpse of their core existence,but choose not live it or expand into it out of fear and lazyness. I ask them “What they belive they are holding onto”? The answers are trivial to me, yet it all comes down to release and change. It is interesting to me thinking about people with money, athletes, successful buisness people, they are always sacrificing things in their lives everyday to accomplish their goals of making money, becoming the best athlete, creating another comapny, but they won’t put forth the energy to discover their core existence. Not all of course are this way, but many.
    I come from a world,(in my previous career), of high fashion, name brands, and material possesions. I have never felt more free giving up so much and ralizing how very little it all meant to me. I beleive this is where the risk is worth the reward. This is where I discovered my true core existence. The level in which I help others now is far more rich on many levels. I am blessed to have found others(my new friends) that share the same spirit. Thank you, Rachael
