This article is the beginning of an inquiry. An inquiry into how and why humanity evolved backwards. How humanity has lost the capacity and interest in using their brain for constructive thought, reasoning, questioning, inquiry.

How come humanity hasn’t evolved the past 50 thousand years?
How come that humanity hasn’t evolved the past 50 thousand years? What is, what has been preventing it from naturally evolving, from going to the next stage of evolution where freedom, joy, is normal like breathing.
My personal vote goes for the lazy mind. The mind phenomenon that supposes that everything is already known, and all you have to do is find the person who knows the answer.
That you don’t need to think, research, compare, look at the big picture, all you have to do is accept the “truth” from whoever is offering it.

Do we really have free will? How would you know?
During my walk today I had a conversation with a young man who said hello. He was going to soccer practice. He told me which school he went to… and that is how it began.
Some ten years ago I had a neighbor, a woman, who had had a life of turmoil. Divorce, death of a child, alcoholism, bad friends. She had a niece stay with her. She went to the same school as this young man I spoke with today. Continue reading “Do we really have free will? How would you know?”
Seeing the big picture… a uniquely Human Being capacity
Why is it so difficult to see the big picture?
Seeing the big picture has three dimensions, maybe four.
- seeing wide: Instead of locking onto a detail, you see the environment inside which the detail is. This is possible the moment you ALLOW what is to be.
- seeing from high: Most things unfold over time, much like traveling on a windy river… you don’t know what is coming beyond the bend, if it is friend or foe.This is one of the problems in making things happen: it is near impossible to be prepared for eventualities you can’t predict.

Chronic issues, no answers? Some questions are answered here…
Life, nature, growth are chaotic, and non-linear
Your thinking, your mind, on the other hand is linear.
When it asks the question “why” it expects a linear answer.
But, of course, any and all linear answers are wrong. Garbage in-garbage out. The answer can’t be better than the question.
The only way to see even just a fragment of the complexity of causes and effects is to practice keeping many plates spinning at the same time… to use a juggler analogy.
Instead, you multitask… which is trying to keep a plate spinning, a ball rolling, etc… impossible.

Are you a match to life? If not: Allowing is missing.
It’s even obvious to you that allowing is missing… But how do you activate the capacity of allowing, and then how do you make the capacity a working skill?
Allowing is what’s between you and serenity. I don’t mean happiness, because happiness has its roller coaster nature: happiness has unhappiness as its shadow. You can only get happiness if you are willing to have unhappiness.
Allowing is letting it be. And although you may feel the urge to change it, fix it, kill it, hide it, hide from it, allowing is authentically allowing something to be, and gain your own beingness.
Without allowing you have no access to beingness.

How to beat the “I don’t know what to do…” and “I don’t know how…”
I have ten unfinished articles on my desktop. It doesn’t feel I have enough to say in any of them to make them a real article.
This one is starting out the same way, to become an unfinished article. I don’t know what to say. I don’t know how to make it a good article.
The base of this article an insight I had just now, five minutes ago.
The situation was: I have been screwing up everything I touched today. Watch my language, by the way.
So, I told myself: “Don’t be a jumping jack. Look before you leap.”
I closed my eyes, and I heard the little voice say: “I don’t know what to look at!” Whiny tone, imagine a 3 year old saying it.

Are you willing to become a prosperous “neighborhood”?
I republished an article, that is as important as anything you’ll ever learn, if you wanted to live a life of an expanding human being…
Response when I first published it: no echo. Response this time: no echo. Nobody heard it. Nobody saw it. Nobody was interested.

The article is pinpointing the reason why you have what you have, and do not have what you want to have.

Penetrating the mysteries of existence
There are two kinds of thinkings… or really maybe three.
- You grab onto something about what you hear or see, attach it to what you already think you know… and then either go deeper, or not, but definitely not go wider. Most people “think” this way.
- This is really the third way: no thinking… lol
- This is what I want to talk about in this article… holographic thinking. This is an uncommon way of penetrating the mysteries of existence…
Let’s define what we are talking about.

Do you want to become smarter? Slow down!
As you know I am working, instead of the CDC that, truthfully, should do this work, but doesn’t… I am working on effective methods of turning this epidemic of biting mites around.
And while I am doing the work of a scientist, being scientist, guinea pig, janitor, judge and executioner at the same time, I learn more than I have bargained for.
I have learned something today, and I’d like to share it with you. It is one of the main moves you render yourself a miserable loser in this game called Life.
