Our Whole Bodily Emotional Cellular Community is the Foundation of Community
This realm, this physically conditional circumstance we notice ourselves appearing in, is and always will be, a Mysterious Existence.
Yes, I mentally “know” that. However, my emotions, my emotional relatedness has been shaped and governed and altogether influenced by a social and cultural indoctrination that is, among other influences, a process of emotional individualisation. That is, our Inherent Wholistic Nature Consciousness or Spirit is, by means of emotional manipulation, reduced or confined to identify merely with the body/mind individual identity.
Our western adaptation, or conditioning (culture) in relation to this Mysterious Realm we temporarily exist in, is one of emotional conscious individualisation.
The typically western-style capitalist regime, our political economic materialism is founded and kept in place by the educational and social/cultural process of emotional-conscious individualisation of all its members.
And there is no doubt we suffer emotional trauma as a result of being separated from our Greater Emotional-Self Source.
There are other adaptations or conditionings (cultures) in this Mysterious Existence that are based on the emotional conscious communalisation (a new word spelt into existence by me) of its members.
These two major differences of adaptation have huge consequences for the individual respective to both cultures. A culture founded on the process of emotional conscious individualisation is a particularly emotionally and mentally toxifying culture, as it breeds imperial politics and the persecution of those emotionally less well-adapted to its way.
Just so, however, every person, no matter how emotionally well-adjusted in this regime, suffers to one degree or another the sensation of isolation, separateness and alone-ness; consequently, our underlying motives and predominant concerns are for our-self. Whereas in those cultures that are structured around the process of emotional conscious communalisation, their members most generally have a deeper sense of belonging, connectedness and emotional integration.
Consequently, the individual’s primary motive and major concerns are for the collective - the survival of the Hive, the Community, the Whole. This is not the sort of culture that breeds imperialism: it has Spiritual and Organic Rituals to heal and strengthen the emotionally less well-adapted to the Collective or Emotional Unity.
Yes, there will always be some form of struggle and stress in this conditional realm; both sorts of adaptations, the emotional-conscious-communalisation and the emotional-conscious-individualisation entail physical survival struggle and stress. However, the stress and struggle within the way of emotionally conscious communalisation is actually a healthy stress, a strengthening stress, a stress that calls forth the great discipline of “self-concern-sacrifice,” which brings forth and invigorates and sustains our true Nature’s Dignity – our Soul’s Majesty, in fact. Whereas the stress and struggle in the emotional-conscious individualised way is, in fact, a toxic stress, an un-natural stress and consequently one that further isolates and devitalises the individual. A stress that fundamentally hardens the individual around the Soul.
Those cultures whose members adapt to emotional communal sharing are those that from the beginning, recognise at an emotional/mental/physical/spiritual level that every human being IS Nature, and that we depend on Nature.
The cultures that emotionally individualise their members are based on a schism with Nature. These cultures are based on the mistaken and Soul-degrading belief that we humans are separate from Nature, in other words, we are not Nature.
My bodily birth occurred within an emotional-conscious individualising culture and being so, I became keenly aware of observing and trying to understand patterns in my emotional/mental/physical being.
I noticed that whenever my motives were not for me, I was more emotionally rested in the midst of action or no action. And then, sometimes either suddenly or imperceptibly slowly, I would become overwhelmed by my own solid sense of self and the solid or conditional aspect of everything… that includes, of course, all the conditional “made-up known” and the stress of “needing to know,” the stress of an isolated knower needing to know the isolated known.
Under the covers of darkness, in the play of coming and going, within the decisions of conditions, this slipping out of Heart-Felt emotional-conscious Unity can happen….it can occur sometimes without warning on the slopes of Love, whenever I too much concentrate on the solid, the conditions, the expected (of myself and others) explanation within the known.
No matter what the conditional circumstance this can happen, albeit in a Wonderful physical Circumstance for the Mystery It Self such as Tushita Ashram-Hermitage.
When the conditional, the creation of the conditional or physical aspect, becomes the main thinking-consideration, along with making it “known” in the “reasonable, conditional, acceptable mind of others,” the nervous system mind of this Inherently subtle creature Being slips far too much into the solid “trying to know” world… and as a result the body/mind becomes invaded and haunted with oppressive, vexatious and tiresome feelings that are, in fact, the symptoms of a body-/mind feeling bereft of Its Great Mysterious Lineage of Spirit ~
The One Great Spirit-Being that Faithfully and Steadfastly resides in all of us and on Whose Authority I, the Spirit of this body/mind, Stand to say a Word for the Mystery, not the man.
The One Great Un-conditional Guide, the Spirit Being, the Angel, the Heart It Self I must Revere, Honour and Obey in the midst of whatever I take on as actions, motives, thoughts or desires in this solid conditional realm. A conditional realm wherein humans have, by all kinds of human-centred, emotionally maladaptive beliefs, ideals, morals and social/religious structures, elevated themselves and their species above the Spiritual Unifying cells of their Nature body (and all bodies) to such a degree that they have isolated and traumatised themselves.
Dearest Beloved All, the One Spirit, the Angel must never be neglected, must never be ignored, must never be asked or told to wait, must never become theoretical, must never be second to anything or anyone, must never be negotiated with, must never be enlisted, employed to serve the motives of the discomfort – the symptoms that arise from the loss of our Essential Relationship to and in the Life Mystery. The One we Are.
The Angel, the One Spirit, the Heart It Self must always be Revered, must always be offered Prasad, must always be Obliged, must always meditate You, must always be Your Primary Bhakti Yoga Lover. Must always be One with You as You.

When I unconsciously slip into the solid, into the separate bodily self or conditional self, into “what about me?” then, at those times, it’s as if the Mystery Self, the Spirit slips away … and the body/ mind grieves the loss of its Primary Lover and consequently becomes burdened with only mind, trying to “know,” to work out what I should do, what must I do… and then, all the conditional possibilities descend on masse to further cripple me.
Furthermore, not only trying to “know” for one’s own emotionally isolated self, but also trying to “know” for others, who themselves have slipped the Angel, slipped the Spirit, slipped the Mysterious Present and are therefore, consequently, in the realms of the conditional hell of only “knowing” but never Knowing.
