Supporting Non-Duality and Awakening in Asheville and Beyond

The Evolution of the Human Brain

The way in which the current human brain operates, is from the underlying position of a "separate me." Along with the underlying separate self identity, there comes with it an underlying fear of its vulnerability, the fear of death, or ultimately, the fear of non-existence. In a nutshell, our current way of using our brain is based on fear.

Look upon our world today, with the tragedy and misery all over the globe. The oil that keeps gushing into our seas. This is the inevitable world of the separate self. The world out there is a direct result of the way in which we humans today think, the very way in which we humans use our brain.

When we as a species become awareness of this "me" as being an illusion, there results a transformation of the very way in which the human brain operates. It no longer operates from a place of right and wrong, good and bad, of anything missing. It is whole and complete in every moment. Fear no longer exists. Instead of operating from a place of its own vulnerability, it now operates from a place of unconditional love.

After seeing the movie "Avatar" with my son, I remarked: "The humanoids living on Pandora think the way we humans currently think and therefore will end up destroying their home too." My son laughed and said, "yes, but who would be able to relate to the movie if they didn't think the way we do?" Regardless, I did enjoy the movie.
