The Catbird Seat Gambit

If you get put in solitary confinement or any sensory deprived condition you will not be able to maintain the thoughts you carried into that deprived situation very long. It's not a matter of will. It's not a matter of lack of focus. It's not a matter of negation of any active sort. The dynamic at play is that whatever you "think" must be substantiated from an external source or it just goes away. Like a dream by mid-morning. It's like it never existed. Then what? 

It's in a situation similar to this that the species-wide flaw may be grokked. Otherwise... not. It's not something you learn by being a good little girl or boy. It's definitely not something you get a gold watch for. It's what makes people different when they're locked away in a closet or basement by someone who claims they're doing it out of love. It's something that's forced upon a person... or elsewise sought of one's own volition. It's easier, however, just to get a job and raise your kids to be idiots like yourself. No blame.

That's what's so fascinating about memsistors. They remain in the state they're in when you switch the power to them off. They literally get frozen as if in sleep paralysis, and stay that way until power is applied again.

That's why this discovery is so important. Humans have to know that can be done before it can be brought into consideration as a feature humans can implement. In this case art imitates technology. The significance of this discovery will actually show it's true affect in the behavior of humans. We will soon develop "the instant on" thingie we expect from our TV sets. Which seems kind of stupid unless you understand what memsistors do. And, it would help if you grokked how the docetic spirit operates to change humans in real time. It's doing it now.

Kundalini is another thing that goes on with people that unless you experience it you ain't gwine git mah drift. It doesn't matter. No blame.

If what a human takes with them into a sensory deprived situation can't be maintained for long without physical stimuli showing up at an acceptable refresh rate to keep it seeming or appearing to be real, then it shouldn't be that strange that our dreams have a habit of disappearing over the course of ti-me in the sa-me manner. Is that because our dreams don't get the non-physical support they need to remain viable over the long haul in the sensory dimension?

It's easy enough to understand how the abstract thoughts or strategies developed in a beta predominate ex-is-tense could disappear into the darkness when we enter a sensory deprived situation like a float tank or in the deep bowels of a cave or lockup. Without stimuli, it all goes away ere long, and what's left is not quite nothingness. Get thee to a float tank and see for yourself. What you take into that tank with you won't last even an hour. You won't know WHO you are either. Your persona. Your identity. Your sense of individuated self will dissipate into nothingness, and the chances are, that you'll be extremely glad they did. 

It's a little like when you deliberately prepare yourself to go to bed at night. You prepare to lose conscious awareness of the sensory dimension for a set amount of ti-me by loosening the-tie-to-me (ti-me).
