Quote:
“Projections change the world into the replica of one’s own unknown face.” Carl Jung
“Exactly there are many truths. Two simple ones if they could be assimilated by society could propel society forward. Only though if they take personal responsibility for their internal universe.
One universal truism is that we Homo Sapiens are a projective species. We project our unconscious beliefs unto other people and situations.
This is the dilemma. All of us are molded by societal, peer and parental expectations, values, norms, mores, ideals and values since birth.
It gets incorporated into our underlying unconscious cognitive schema which makes up our ‘autopilot’ or our underlying belief system.
This is for the wise. To change another would be tantamount to changing their hard drive or rather their genes and genetic predisposition.
In addition it would be to rewire the software of another completely different and unique individual of their parenting, schooling and indeed their entire life experiential lessons while walking the path of life.
We are as in the Hubble Telescope. We each have a different lens to view reality based on our hard wire and soft ware.
These are merely only our perceptions and not ultimate reality. Most of what we know is mere subjective opinion.
The second truth and this comes from the cognitive based psychological fields of CBT: Cognitive Behavior Therapy and REBT: Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy.
Every negative felt experienced reality has an underpinning with cognitive distortions and or irrational beliefs.
It manifests as a trigger. I have an analogy. Our emotions are like the check engine light of our car.
1. If we have a negative emotion we are triggered. 2. Their are distortions in the thought process.
3. These hidden unconscious triggers are a blind spot of awareness.
4. Underneath is your own unfinished business, unresolved conflicts, emotional baggage and an unhealed aspect of a psychic wound.
This is universal. The amendments would be these three parameters. 1. A person experiencing extreme physical pain.
2. A person is in a fight or flight situation. The third is if we are confronted with something so anti-ethical to our moral sensibility.
Examples would be having a negative emotion over murderers, Hitler, Rapists, etc. The point is you do not allow your emotions to act emotionally and in an irrational sense. Hold those accountable but remain objective.
If people would acknowledge this truth and take action accordingly we could transform society from within.
This is my vow. I am responsible for my own thoughts, feelings, speech, writing and actions irregardless of the person or the external situation.
I will not repay negative energy with negative. In psychology this is negative reinforcement. For those coming from a completely blatant irrational stance, their is no useful reasoning with them.
The person pouring a type of a pollution on their fellow man and reality are those who blame others and reality for their own emotions.
They are in a philosophical sense projecting an illusion of their own unfinished business unto a real world situation or person.
These the blamers who don’t take responsibility will never heal from their psychic wound. They will continue to be triggered by this sore spot.
This will not change unless they take responsibility. Those that don’t will never grown emotionally, spiritually or psychologically.
All the sayings, “Take the High Road” would be prudent. I as every person alive has blind spots in my overall awareness.
I hope to continue to evolve by being cognitively mindful and responsible for my self in entirety, having an open mind, being tolerant and respectful of others with beliefs dissimilar from myself.
In my path following the tenets I continue to grow both in depth and breadth of my understanding of self, others and the world we live in.
I respectfully apologize if I have ever strayed to strive to be humble and have an open, inquisitive and curios mind.” LightSun
