Divide by Zero
The Living Force
I've been slowly reading The Believing Brain by Michael Shermer after seeing him in a show on superstition. I understand he is not infallible. A lot of times he bungles up things, like Vaccines, conspiracies and such. He has a good grasp of the basic fundamentals of psychology though and we can see through varied examples on how non objective things can seem objective to people/animals.
Anyway, the primer for why this book grabbed my attention:
I want to find out how superstition as a human trait of pattern searching can be positive if we are aware of it. After all, the subconscious and emotional brain can do things that our conscious brain will confirm after the fact, like the believing lies article/thread explains. I have this feeling that this is why the crystals are a good thing, this energy is a positive superstition if we were to try to explain it on scientific materialist terms. After all, half the battle is within, as we saw with the placebo and nocebo effects explained on Health and Wellness show which are quite shocking!
By that extension, a negative or unaware belief system, even subconscious seems like a self imposed limitation or hell. Perhaps this is what the STS system wants us to stay in through repeated trauma? If we are stuck dreaming of something that we want to happen but the subconscious knows it to not be true, that is worse than just accepting the idea that this is how it is and will always be. I think that's maybe why the C's say anticipation restricts. So how to leave an open belief system that is not linked to this STS "computer server"?
First, a few clues from the C's on belief and it's importance with this reality. Perhaps this is a part of tuning into a specific FRV, or as in the last quote even the idea of a physical future or an afterlife with physical features can seem to anchor us to something?

Session 31 December 1994
Q: (M) Will I be abducted again?
A: Yes.
Q: (M) When?
A: It depends on belief center.
Q: (L) I think it might depend on how much knowledge you acquire as to whether you will be abducted again or under what circumstances.
A: Grandfather let you in on secrets of life.
Session 12 August 1995
Q: (L) Is there any benefit to be obtained through the use of mantras?
A: Especially when the mind says there is. Remember, most all power necessary for altering reality and physicality is contained within the belief center of the mind. This is something you will understand more closely when you reach 4th density reality where physicality is no longer a prison, but is instead, your home, for you to alter as you please. In your current state, you have the misinterpretation of believing that reality is finite and therein lies your difficulty with finite physical existence. We are surprised that you are still not able to completely grasp this concept.
Q: (L) Well, I think I have a good grasp of this concept, but I am asking questions to obtain answers for others to comprehend.
A: That is not being completely honest.
Q: (L) Close enough. Is it true that recitation of mantras can effect spirit release or exorcism?
A: If you please.
A: Could you please explain what an internal operating system is?
Q: (L) I guess it is the subconscious mind.
A: It is?
Q: (L) Maybe.
A: My, my.
Q: (T) The subconscious mind has no idea of time. (J) Time is an artificial constraint... (L) For example: a person can have a belief about prosperity in their conscious mind and can talk about it and say affirmations and all kinds of positive things for themselves, and yet, for some reason that individual continually lives on the edge of poverty because something keeps happening that they keep screwing up to keep themselves at the level of poverty. And, when you start digging around in their subconscious mind you find out that somewhere there is the belief in poverty or there is a past life connection where they feel they need or deserve to be poor, so, their internal operating system takes precedence over their conscious beliefs and thoughts. That is what I am talking about here.
A: Yes, but what is your point.
Q: (L) The point is that you may say that you would like to get rid of time and you may understand it conceptually, but something internal keeps you tied to it. How do you get rid of that internal connection?
A: Something internal keeps you tied to it?
Q: (J) Like circadian rhythms, it’s physical.
A: We feel you are missing the point.
Q: (L) Well, maybe I am.
A: You see, we speak to all of you when we say this. It's now time for you, as individuals, to try to move away, as much as possible, not to force yourselves, of course, but to try and move away at your own pace as much as possible, from the constraints of third density. You have all learned lessons to the level where you are more than ready to begin to prepare for fourth density. Third density involves a level of physicality and restriction and restraint and all of the things that go along with those, that you no longer need. So, therefore, even though we understand that at times it may feel comfortable to cling to this, there is time for you, and there is that word again, it is time for you to consider moving ahead and get ready for fourth density and not to be concerned with such things as time or how to free yourself from the illusion of time. That really is not important. That's like the third grade student delving into mathematics and stopping everything to go back and contemplate the ABC's and why it isn't CBA or BAC. There really is no point. It is what it is. They are what they are.
