Info-Psychology Part 7

Exo-psychology holds that the human larval exists in a reality defined by the four survival imprints. Although the brain receives 100 million impulses a second, mundane consciousness is limited to signals which have been conditioned to one of the four imprinted game boards.

Unconditioned sensations, the raw swirl of an unfiltered reality, exist as background noise.

In communicating with larvals the following points must, therefore, be remembered: The Larval has no interest in you, you do not exist, unless you can hook into Hir limited reality-island, transmit on Hir narrow mind-band, unless your behavior offers meaning in terms of possible benefit or threat to Hir: *cellular well being *emotional-hierarchical status *artifact manipulation game *socio-s.e.xual security; domestic rea.s.surance.

All larval interactions are instrumental to one of the four survival att.i.tudes. Larvals are comfortably adapted to this limited four-channel communication, scan automatically for the survival meaning of each stimulus and scuttle by each other like ants, each intent on Hie own "reality" - reacting automatically to relevant cues from others.

Larval communication occurs in terms of four systems, some of which are comprehensible to the entire species, some of which are limited to members of the same cultural-imprint group.

Larvals do not like to receive information unless the facts fit into their 3rd Circuit reality net and immediately reward their emotional status. Democrats were delighted to hear the facts about Nixon, but Republicans were irritated and resistant.

Larvals submit themselves to learn new symbols only under special motivational circ.u.mstances where the new connections build on and confirm established systems or give promise of future emotional rewards of which the teacher is model.

Larvals fervently resist new symbols which require a change in their network of a.s.sociations. This resistance to learning is not psychological; it is neurological and bio-chemical. New ideas require a change in the wiring of a.s.sociations and literally cause a "headache."

Communicating with a larval involves building onto the net of a.s.sociations. You must literally wire each new idea to an existing neural connection. Larvals learn almost no new symbol systems after childhood. They simply add on to or translate into symbols closely connected to the imprint. This accounts for the fact that it takes at least one generation for a new idea to be understood.

It is especially important in communicating with larvals to remember that few symbols now exist for post larval processes.

You cannot use b.u.t.terfly language to communicate with caterpillars.

Circuit 4 language involves domestic-moral and social values. Here we discover that there are great cultural differences. The basic sperm-egg invitations to o.r.g.a.s.m are, of course, global, but the semantics of displacement, inhibition and sublimation become subtle. Indeed, the individuality, intimacy, specificity, inconsistency and volatility of value symbols requires the greatest caution on the part of post-larvals communicating with yokels.

Most larvals live in terror of being seen as sinful or "bad." Constant rea.s.surance is required to maintain the feeling of being socially approved.

In communicating with larvals about s.e.xual, philosophic, or ethical matters, one enters very dangerous terrain. It is almost impossible to discuss philosophy with yokels.

Hypocrisy, unconscious motivation, irrational paradox, need for approval and fear-of-shame dominate every discussion of philosophy-religion.

Larvals may be bored by and may tune-out Circuit 3 symbols which do not fit their imprints and conditioned networks. But Circuit 4 moral symbols or behaviors which are sensed as different trigger off responses of pa.s.sion and even violence. Because of this philosophic sensitivity, yokel humans tend to avoid philosophic discussions.

This phobia can cause painful reactions when a post-larval attempts to discuss exo-psychology with a mundane.

The reasons for the philosophic phobia: 1.Yokels are ignorant about where life came from, where it is going and why. They are thus terrified by their mortality. Each larval has accepted a flimsy philosophy of life-and-death which SHe does not really believe. Thus the irritation and panic when this basic hypocrisy is threatened by a scientific discussion about life-origin and life destination.

"The Lutheran church has always been based on the Bible," explains Phil Beck, Production Manager of a local paint company and the superintendent of the Church's Sunday School. "If you start questioning it, where do you stop? If I have to have that much education to sit down and understand Genesis, then why did G.o.d let Luther put it in the people's language? At what point do I throw the whole mad mess out the door?"

Time magazine 2.Yokels are robot slaves to DNA. They blindly labor to perpetuate the species, to breed, to establish domestic arrangements for rearing young and to transmit cultural survival patterns. Any discussion which threatens to expose or question this robothood is extremely painful. The larval cannot tolerate the insight into uneasy areas of uncertainty.

3.Expression and inhibition of s.e.xual behavior is charged with terror, because o.r.g.a.s.m and sperm-egg transfer must be domesticated to provide for stable child rearing.

In communicating with larvals one must realize that discussions about life, death, philosophic ultimates, child-rearing, s.e.xuality - are highly individualistic. Reactions to these topics are unpredictable, depending on the intimacy and safety of the situation.

Hypocrisy and violent defensiveness is endemic.

Post-terrestrials, of course, think of little else except what happens after larval imprints are retracted. They are fascinated by communications with their body, their brain, their DNA. Post-larvals emit vibrations which sometimes disturb yokels and other times seduce them into a temporary abandonment of philosophic repressions.

Post-terrestrials are usually funny, erotic, relativistic and philosophically provocative. Yokels can unconsciously sense the difference in a post-terrestrial. It is therefore advisable to be accurate and sensitive when interacting with larvals.

One must be careful not to seduce the yokel into betraying too much truth.

During a philosophic discussion with post-terrestrials, larvals will often get carried away in temporary enthusiasm, confess doubts about their cosmologies, admit ethical relativities and even accept post-larval strivings to leave the planet and escape death.

The post-terrestrial is urged to act with delicacy to avoid any overt or implied criticism of yokel values. It must be remembered that, to the larval, astronomy and genetics involve 4th Circuit ethical issues, which threaten loss of moral approval.

Discussing exo-psychology with a yokel is like discussing s.e.xual experiences with a pre-adolescent. She just can't understand the new reality because her neural circuits have not been turned-on. And she may turn you in for philosophic child-molesting.

Sooner or later the larval is going to realize that, after the exciting flight conversation, she is going to remain grounded. At this point the yokel can become pa.s.sionately moralistic, attacking the post-terrestrial for being elitist, callous to human suffering, anti-human, escapist, or even diabolical.

Immortals must be careful not to wound the sensibilities of mortals.

In particular, one must be diplomatic in discussing the future evolution of the human species. Larval humans naturally believe that evolution has already reached its highest stage with h.o.m.o sapiens!

Circuit 7 discussions which suggest that evolution is just half-completed, that the human species is fetal and not yet born, that many new superior species will evolve from the present gene pool - are especially wounding to yokel hubris.

Science fiction writers and astronomers have often speculated on the problems of communication between humans and interstellar ent.i.ties. This problem is no longer academic. It is happening. This book is an example.

THE EVOLUTION, STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION OF THE NERVOUS SYSTEM.

27. The Post-terrestial Must Also Be Very Cautious in Communicating with Premature Post-larvals.

Some say that the Post-terrestrial Age was inaugurated in 1926 when a group of German visionaries formed the Verein fur Raumschiftfahrt (a.s.sociation for s.p.a.ce Travel).

The V.f.R. held meetings, published research papers and performed rocket experiments. The group, unaffiliated with government, operated with the free dedication of a medieval alchemical fraternity. It was disbanded after the accession of Hitler. The goal of the V.f.R. was to arrange chemicals in the correct geometric order to produce the escape velocity to leave the planet.

The exo-psychological goals of V.f.R. were coopted by the n.a.z.is, who used the V-1 and V-2 rockets for larval purposes.

At the same time, atomic physicists were seeking the correct arrangements of pure elements to fission the atom. The success of the Fermi alchemical team in Chicago can be seen as another exo-psychological landmark. The fission of the uranium atom provided the energy source to propel the interstellar, post-Einsteinian rockets which the primitive, chemically-fired Newtonian rockets of von Braun were forecasting.

The neurological revolution of the 1960's provided the biological counterpart of the Einsteinian point of view. The principles of exo-psychology were first presented (1963) in a paper mysteriously t.i.tled "The Religious Experience - Its Production and Interpretation."[1] This essay, which was widely reprinted and anthologized, accurately predicted that the languages and perspectives of science would provide the theology, ontology, cosmology of the future and systematically laid down the foundations of exo-psychology except that the inevitability of extra-planetary migration was not pointed out.

The co-option of nuclear energy, electronics and rocket-research by the military blocked the interstellar perspective and the subsequent 1960's disillusion with science encouraged the vague maxim "look within."

The resulting fascination with oriental quietism, shamanism, and pop-cult yoga produced a systematic anti-intellectualism, a calculated sucrose stupidity, a bland, smiling self-indulgent floating detachment which is personified as "The Hippy" (Stage 13) and "The Yogi" (Stage 14).

"The Hippy" and the "Yogi-Body Engineer" represent the first two of twelve post-terrestrial stages, transitional stages of "wingless b.u.t.terflies," evolved beyond terrestrial attachments, no longer hooked to mundane symbols. The one-G earth and its survival routines are no longer "real," The Hippie-Zen adept is no longer reflexively reactive to emotional status cues, is unmotivated for dexterous success and unmoved by the virtue-shame systems by which society domesticates its workers; but has not yet evolved to the mastery of the newly activated circuits. The true post-terrestrial is shame-less.

The word "Hippy" is a generic term for the first post-larval stages describing those who genetically (Zodiac type), neurologically (imprint) or historically (hedonic/sub-cultures) get trapped in pa.s.sive-receptive hedonic life styles. Transcendental Masturbation.

The first post Hiroshima generation has produced millions of Zen "Hippies" who have evolved from the mundane but do not realize that they are extra-terrestrial.

The problem is, in part, one of historical linguistics. The only languages, the only symbols provided by primitive psychology for extramundane experiences were "larval religious." The new reality of the Hippy is symbolized by vague, mystical terms.

A communication vacuum develops. On the one hand, The Hippy, Yogi and Tantric realizes that SHe has evolved somehow. On the other hand, the five-brained person, detached from larval symbols, lurches around grasping at any transcendental straw - magic, occultism, chanting, witchcraft, telepathy, guruism, mystical Christianity, Ha.s.sidism, experimental evangelism, the endless varieties of oriental charlatanism.

The trap of body-consciousness and sensory consumerism has been well summarized by Federico Fellini: "People are losing faith in the future. Our [larval] education, unfortunately, molded us for a life that was always tensed towards a series of achievements - school, military service, a career and, as a grand finale, the encounter with the heavenly father. But now that our tomorrows no longer appear in that optimistic perspective, we are left with a feeling of impotence and fear. People who can no longer believe in a "better tomorrow" logically tend to behave with a desperate egotism. They are preoccupied with protecting, brutally if necessary, those little personal gains, one's little body, one's little sensual appet.i.tes. To me this is the most dangerous feature of the '70's."

Five-brained persons flopping around sporadically detached from mundane imprints, lacking a vocabulary and a methodology for extra-terrestrial movement, fall back on larval concepts of transcendence. Caterpillar fantasies about what post-larval life will be like.

A warning is in order. Many five-brained Hippies and Yogis are the most vehement opponents of extra-terrestrial evolution. They use three bland sets of cliches to resist practical plans for interstellar migration: *Look within. Astral travel, pa.s.sive changing of consciousness will transport us to the promised land.

*Return to nature. Back to the paleolilhic! Simplify, avoid technology, stalk the wild asparagus, rely on body wisdom, organic purity, sensory pleasure.

*All is one. The cosmos is a h.o.m.ogeneous mist of flavorless cotton candy. Exo-psychology and neurogenetics are attacked as unnatural, elitist attempts to differentiate the vanilla-pudding unity of simplistic Hinduism, Buddhism, u.s.w.

Underlying all three of these occultist postures is a revulsion against science, technology, evolution and intellectual competence. Implicit in the occultist theory is the a.s.sumption that there is nothing left to learn except to rote-memorize some Hindu chants, to rote-recite some glib theosophical dogmas, to quiet the restless, inquiring mind.

The three stages of the neurosomatic circuit - 13. Hippy, 14. Yogi, 15. Tantric - are body-oriented and involve a deliberate symbol stupidity. It is understandable that the five-brained person reacts against the insectoid-cyborg materialism of larval technology, the scientism that produces plastic consumerism, military-industrialism, a.s.sembly-line anonomie, and polluted over-population. But the rejection of scientific inquiry becomes a know-nothing smugness. Occultists become longhaired rednecks. The evidence from astronomy, bio-chemistry, genetics, nuclear-physics, defines the true frontier of philosophy and religion. Scientific American is more "far out" than any occult magazine, the Periodic Table of Elements more prophetic than the Tarot deck. The nucleus of the atom is a realm more mysterious and omniscient than any theological fantasy. The cosmology of an expanding-universe-riddled-with-Black-Holes more bizarre than the eschatologies of Dante, Homer and Ramayana.

Despite this n.o.ble rejection of the artificial, the Hippie-Yogi-Tantric establishment is an entrenched, self-indulgent block to evolution - a transitional stage preparatory to planetary migration.

We see the limitations of neurosomatic contelligence most clearly in the teachings of don Juan. Castaneda's warrior sorcerers are admirable in their dignified, humorous, disciplined attempts to retract social imprints. Don Juan has worked out an accurate, metaphorical neurologic. He precisely defines the larval-imprint reality-island (tonal) and the direct experience of the nagual.

But don Juan's philosophy is pessimistic: "There are no survivors on this earth." It fails to evolve to Stage 15 neurosomatic linkage: "And then I was alone," is the bleak conclusion.

The first post-Hiroshima generation was truly a lost generation. Liberated from yokel imprints but with no place to go beyond body geography. The cynicism and malaise of the 1970's is the result of this disillusion.

For these reasons the exo-psychologist must speak with caution in communicating with the members of the "Woodstock" generation. They have imprinted their bodies but are too old and set in their ways (at age 25-35) to receive the neurophysical signals for extra-terrestrial migration.

[1]The energy-languages of physics, electronics, astronomy, mathematics are post-larval but their relevance to psychology is just now being recognized.

THE EVOLUTION, STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION OF THE NERVOUS SYSTEM.

29.Think of This Book - Exo-psychology - As an Astro-neurological Text The past few pages of this transmission have whirled us through several billion years of evolution, introduced us to Higher Intelligence, explained our role as Paleozoic plants, pulled us through larval stages of mammalian body construction, described the robotry of symbol-conditioning, provided the key to s.e.xual male-faction, instructed us in the use of the poly-phase neuroscope (equipped with life-long, re-imprint film), and given us adequate cues to allow us to attain biological immortality and time-dilation.

It is possible that we have already in this introduction transmitted more extra-terrestrial information than is contained in all of the books which have previously been written.

"But maybe I'm revealing things I shouldn't, don Juan."

"It doesn't matter what one reveals or what one keeps to oneself," he said. "Everything we do, everything we are rests on our personal power. If we have enough of it, one word uttered to us might be sufficient to change the course of our lives. But if we don't have enough personal power, the most magnificent piece of wisdom can be revealed to us and that revelation won't make a d.a.m.n bit of difference."

Carlos Castaneda, Tales of Power, P.16 This book is not for Every Body. The human species is now at a point of genetic fission. a.s.sume that about ninety-three percent of the species is going to adapt to life on the planet. Ecology is the seductive dinosaur science that will lead most of the post-human species to conform to terrestrial conditions, become reasonably comfortable, pa.s.sive, robot-conditioned cyborg insectoids directed by centralized (ABC, NBC, CIA, MAO, CKB) broadcasting systems. For terrestrial readers this manual outlines the neurological steps necessary to adapt harmoniously to hedonic, five-brained cyborg existence.

This transmission flashes a different signal for the seven percent who we a.s.sume are DNA-designed to attain biological immortality, leave the womb-planet, become galactic citizens and fuse with superior interstellar ent.i.ties.

This manual is not designed for conventional author-reader games. It is a signal for mutation. A test of intelligence. A scan for personal power.

The pan-spermic U.F.O.s landed three billion years ago and produced the signal, an English translation of which you now hold in your hand: S.M.I2.L.E.
