What is the 'BOX' that we think in?

Linear Tunnel Vision!

The 'BOX' is so pervasively unquestioned in almost all cultures that it may disturb you to identify it.

Over the years I have struggled with the recognition that humanity's most valuable social asset, culture, was long ago subverted as a means of stunting development of our most high functioning mental capacities in the service of conquest. In day to day life the propagation of this tenacious subversion is innocent, invisible, and exudes honest conviction. The understandable conviction stems from the necessity of mastering the ability to purposely focus when learning something new. This vital ability to focus our mind establishes some of the initial structural circuitry for the control of our minds. For millennia self control of the mind was not a permissible alternative. The residue from this early suppression is "The Box." Now It Is!

Many years of exploring insights from many sources and filling in some missing elements has allowed me to create an embryonic scenario of a new open evolving system of knowledge integration. Think 'beyond linear' It includes tools, methodologies, information storage and retrieval, trap identification, clues to recognition of enhancing and impairing patterns of thought and much more. The mind has astounding capacities for self correction and repair.

The above mentioned ability to focus (separate specific information while ignoring all other input) is only one of the many capacities of our minds. Extremely long chains of relationships may be recognized and understood using just this simple structural pattern. These kinds of patterns are common in nature. Causality chains and time sequences are some examples of naturally occurring patterns of serial recognition structures (understanding). Using just a few patterns of thought we can think we know a lot about the world we live in and that is true. But our minds can and do far surpass the linear patterns of thought which form the structural patterns of the 'BOX.'

The dark side is the origination of nearly all 'civilized' cultures in the occurring, conquest, and domestication of civilian subjects. There are fundamental unquestioned residues of these conquest and mental domestication processes constraining the potential of our minds. The continuation of these culturally propagated restrictive residues is the source of the 'BOX.' They are self imposed through misunderstanding and unquestioned acceptance. The natural functionality of our minds is not the limiting factor! Ancient cultural mind control is.

One simple pattern of mental structure that naturally occurs in the development of our minds is dividing/separation patterns. Combining serial and dividing patterns can result in what we call hierarchies. Hierarchies also are pervasive throughout the universe. Here is where the construction of the 'BOX' began. It seems safe to speculate that 'BOX' formation was well underway long before civilization systematized it's development and maintenance. Tyrants discovered that by forcibly closing hierarchies both physically and mentally they could truncate further sophisticated mental and cultural development. They could structure the minds of their subjects in a form of acute tunnel vision. They could direct all of life's irresistible natural motivations to the service of themselves and their closed power hierarchies.

In contemporary times the mental truncations occur when the vital focusing (life's irresistible and exclusion) skill sets are still assumed to be the end of the development process. Authoritative and emphatic closure habits results in linear and/or closed hierarchical patterns of thought. This still produces tunnel vision! We don't know that we don't know about the mountain surrounding the tunnel we see and the universe beyond our closed patterns/tunnels of thought. This is only one small part of the "BOX."

Discover the rest of your mind. Over years of exploring and collecting the insights of others who question, I have also accumulated fairly extensive original insights, concepts, processes, and systems that can advance our innate mental leveraging potential. By facilitating our natural integrative thought processes I envision offering everyone a mutual boost. Remember, the mind has astounding capacities for self correction and restructure.

I would like to invite interaction with others having similar interests. I plan on both open sharing and monetizing what I have learned in order to finance continued exploration.
