For thousands of years people have interpreted ancient writings into whatever fits into their own perception at the time. One of the first things that bothered me about the Old Testament was the fact that god made Eve inferior to Adam, Eve was also blamed for the original sin. Before I explain what all that means let me say this; Men and women are different yes. As far as one being inferior and the other superior, that is not a correct way to see things. We are built different in order to perform different tasks, we are programed differently to have different roles in the whole of life. But muscles and power does not make one superior, it only makes one a bully. What you have to understand is, the writers of those ancient stories were trying to write in a way that could be understood many years into the future.
Like prophecy, if you had a dream and you were seeing a thousand years into the future, the world you would be looking at would be completely foreign to you. Buildings of the future would not look anything like buildings you were use to seeing. So you would have to find a way to explain them in terms you would understand, yet hopefully those a thousands years later would recognize as their time. So the gap would be hard to close.
So what was the writers trying to say in Genesis? They were trying to explain the human mind in the only way they knew how. Adam the male dominate side of humans was the left hemisphere of the brain. Logic, awake, conscious of the outside world. Eve, the right hemisphere was the feminine passive side and the hidden side, the sub-conscious. Most people are right handed and control of that side belongs to the left hemisphere. The reason Eve took the fall in the garden is because it's hard to fool the conscious mind, but if you bypass it and go straight into the sub-conscious mind then the conscious mind can be changed from the inside out.
When you learn how to drive a car, your conscious mind is alert and focused on doing everything correct to avoid an accident. At the same time your sub-conscious mind is learning also. That's why after you become good at driving, (if you do) you can travel along for miles carrying on a conversation with a passenger and not remember passing certain landmarks and places you are familiar with. While engaged in conversation your sub-conscious mind takes over the driving knowing automatically when to slow down and break, stop at red lights, without you giving it much thought.
Conscious mind is the language side, the must see to believe side, while the sub-conscious side is the symbol or picture side that uses intuition and sees the whole picture. Well this knowledge has been known for thousands of years, just not to the majority. For what you don't know can hurt you and it has hurt us a lot.
By implanting certain pictures, feelings, and repetition of things others want us to believe as real, you can bypass the conscious mind and create whatever reality you want others to see as normal. This is not mere speculation, just look around you at today's world. Who told you that you must have designer clothes, drive certain cars, act certain ways in order to fit in? This is not normal in any way. We have been trained to not only consume what we are told, but also to think what we are told. The sad part is, we keep passing it on to our children and don't even think twice about it.
The very fact that you think you are better than let's say, homeless people, or people who clean homes for a living or any other job you would not want to do, is proof that you have been programed. Most people will say, but I don't think I'm better than those people. And I say, sure you don't, but how can you lie to yourself? You keep lying until you believe your own lie that's how. If you stop for a minute and catch your first thought when you see a homeless person asking for money or god forbid approaching you with their filth to ask for food or work or money, what's the first thought? Yuck, god I hope they don't touch me, how disgusting. That makes you and I just as disgusting as them, on the inside. We all have ugliness within us, it's when we hide it from ourselves so well that we can't see it that we become the denying better than others that we have become. But of course I'm not talking about you, I mean those other people you know who I mean. Gossip, another ugliness within us.
Peace, until next time,,,, GW icthetao
