This is the third and last part of an introduction to a “global mind change” or global paradigm shift.  Part I dealt with how difficult it is to make such a shift. Part II details how this involves quintessentially a movement away from the 17th-century’s math-based vision of nature. This third segment takes us to a next step.

TRANSCENDENCE
A transcending overview here is right-brain dominant. What does that mean? Our right brain taps into what I call “connective consciousness” the way a radio might tune into a certain channel that specializes in this or that music. What is tuned into prefers to look  at connected wholes rather than separate parts. Transcendence itself is a right-brain process because it moves above (as if to a mountain peak) to look past the smaller separate views .  Then we can see consciousness again as whole. This is akin to the ocean reconnecting its waters’ separate drops or separate feeding from different rivers.

IMPLICATIONS FOR USING MATH SYMBOLS TO CONSTRUCT A WORLDVIEW
In our modern civilization we use math symbols to connect a vision of nature with. However, these symbols really abstract  how to separate all elements of consciousness. This makes the aim an impossible task.

THE MATH-ORGANIZED VIEW AS ILLUSIONARY AND MISGUIDING
As stunning as it may sound, a purely separative or math-based understanding  of all of nature, and especially nature’s depths,  is actually a vast misstep. It is both non-objective because it has a cultural agenda. It is a quite unwise way of seeing for fathoming the depths of nature.  Or it falsely constructs a global view that is actually more akin to what is surface.  Because it’s so extremely separative and surface, it is actually creates the most illusionary of all possible constructed worldviews. This seems impossible to digest because the math-based view is so unprecedentedly powerfully, and dramatically effective in designing technology. Drama, however, is exactly what creates illusions in our consciousness. Past the impressiveness of having machines and modern technology, what is the real deeper impact on the rest of our whole environment? It would take many, many pages to explain this in detail.

MONEY
It is important to note that  money, a form of everyday mathematization of consciousness, does powerfully corrupt awareness. We think we are immune from this corruption process when using this symbolism in a  laboratory to form “laws of nature.” We are not. When oversight is lacking, there is eventually a marriage between the mechanical sciences and corporate profit-drives to harm life on a global level.  Monsanto is the perfect example.

NON-JUDGMENTAL
The above is not meant to judge the essential math-bound view. It is rather to critique it as a specialized rather than the supposed way of seeing nature. It is a way well suited for designing machines. It not necessarily a best way with which to objectively interact with all of nature. Not be far. Not when it engenders the greatest of modern illusions.

BENEFITS
Machines help relieve us of mechanical chores. There have positive uses. Thus the Industrial Revolution appeared to initially be a progressive development,  as in helping the movement ot abolish slavery.

DEFICITS
Crises arose only centuries later, beginning mostly in the 20th century, when we applied this math-bound view far, far too deeply. This is because first consciousness, at the core of life, forms a universal relationship of connection in nature.  Life brings out consciousness, and consciousness brings out that life (like water brings out the same from a seed).  A universally-separative view, the mathematical, is then neither life or consciousness-centered or supportive. It eventually clashes when deeply applied because the essence of life lives deeply within.

BIGGEST DEFICIT – DEATH-DELIVERING
In other words, a falsely depth-applied mathematical view becomes predictably death-delivering and harmful on a global level.  It tends to harm life very profoundly. It will, if universally applied, undermine the overall sustainability of life on Earth – that is unless it is reigned in. We see this with chemical pollution and atomic weapons’ proliferation. This is why we so urgently need a fundamental different understanding of nature , ourselves and our cosmos. We can call this a global mind change or core paradigm shift.  Not since the 17th century has there been such a major inner shift – as from the medieval to the modern view. We now greatly need another, a similarly vast and post-modern mind shift

GLOBAL MIND CHANGE =  A HUGE BRAIN POLARITY SHIFT
Because the math-bound view is a penultimate left-brain dominant orientation, we must move away from this left-brain dominant to what is a final refuge – a highest right-brain, connective-consciousness view. Since our culture has been primarily left-brain dominant for millennia, or at least since ancient Greek times, the math-bound atomic view has deep roots. A change thereof will take time.  Threatening health pandemics and environmental challenges can acceleate this change. Thus we have an unprecedented opportunity to become next-step more enlightened, to shift away from the present global eco-destructiveness to what will deeper than ever in the past, support, maintain, nurture and promote  life on earth (rather than what is mechanical).

CONTINUATION
This is a continuation of an earlier post about seeing a life-centered vision of nature through a right-brain dominant way of seeing. We have a literally split right and a left hemisphere and they tend to see reality differently (unless brought together in a whole brain view). This corresponds to two forms of consciousness that may be united or posed at odds.

TWO ROOT FORMS OF CONSCIOUSNESS
Bertram Russell once offered two metaphors for understanding out universe  – a pail of molasses and a pail of sand. This is reminiscent of the choice between a particle and  a wave theory in quantum physics. Which view, the separative or connective, the pail of sand or that of molasses,  is the  best or the more objective?

CONNECTIVELY DOMINANT
There is no really black and white answer. What I’ve discovered is that the surface/separative appearance of nature is best left-brain described and dealt with. The depth-essence of nature is fathomed with the opposite approach.  Raw-wisdom moves only to our awareness becoming more connectively dominant, with the separative view remaining essential but subservient. What all this means becomes clear in the application to the healing arts that bring out life and consciousness from what appears to have little.

RAW VIEW
The right-brain dominant view may also be called the  “raw” view or what is concept-naked.  This is similar to Buddhism’s emptying our minds to raise consciousness of the oneness in meditations. There is also a second usage of the term “raw” as discussed below.

ROLE OF CONSCIOUSNESS
Let me first say that the single greatest discovery in my whole and entire life, without exaggeration, has been the central understanding that what is  “consciousness”  taps  into a universal relationship of connection in nature, and thus forms nature’s core essence and depth laws.  Universal connection equates with Oneness and thus consciousness also is the foundation of nature’s interconnected view as a whole.

PAIL OF MOLASSES
This is the” molasses view” in contrast to the “pail of sand view” that offers mechanical, atomistic laws for the surface/separative/illusionary appearance view. This overall and right/left brain understanding has a thousand and one implications and powerful applications. The “pail of molasses view” differs fundamentally from the atomic or mathematical view of  physics and chemistry again representing the pail of sand perspective. The latter is usually the sole “true” vision we have all been brought up to believe in – except for some traces of religious mysticism.

WHAT WE ARE TAUGHT
In our impressionable years attending primary and high schools, we take in this left-brain-eschewed and authoritative way of seeing reality. We are taught to buy-into an only superficially true and depth false view. Because mathematics represents a “universal symbolism for the separation of all forms of consciousness,” it actually makes no logical sense to apply this view to the depth connections of nature (which are consciousness-based) We want to mostly connect not separate ourselves from an understanding of  the whole fabric.  Applying the Newtonian vision, we’ve instead put ourselves in a either passively separated or actively clashing stance.

RAW LIFE WISDOM
Because the concentrated presence of consciousness forms life, this bringing out of life and consciousness (especially in the healing arts) is not the same as the bringing out of the mechanical using physics and chemistry. Here we can note that the term “raw” is thus further associated with bringing out what is life and consciousness in ourselves, including by engaging the foods we eat. We thus recommend to others to follow a living foods diet. There is a profound reason to water our seeds (water elicits life and consciousness)  or to not cook our foods (fire elicits the destruction of life).

RAISING CONNECTIVE CONSCIOUSNESS
Ultimately the healing of our disintegrated visions, the greening of our mind, is what leads us consistently to a healing change in lifestyles. This offers to raise our connective consciousness and is what raw life wisdom is all about.

All of my writings are essentially attempts to share what I have learned about “seeing beneath the veils” or the surface illusions of life and to better heal ourselves – and more deeply at all levels. Seeing a deeper cause for disease is a part of this.

LOWERED CONSCIOUSNESS
John Tilden, in his Toxemia Explained, apparently made the very famous claim that “all diseases have one root cause, toxemia.”  Many naturopaths follow this philosophy. My view is this  is partly true and party not. A root cause means, strictly speaking, something so encompassing that it explains the origins of all forms of diseases and at their foundation.  Now I can be ill by having my finger cut and  then infected. This has nothing to do with toxemia!

HEALING PHILOSOPHY OF RAW-WISDOM
My own healing philosophy of raw-wisdom offers a different view. Toxins are physical substances that are poisonous. Emotions and thoughts can also be toxic. They all take life, inner light and consciousness out of our bodies. Ultimately it is this taking away of connective consciousness that engenders disconnection, not-being-whole or experiencing disease.  This is why Alzheimer’s is obviously a consciousness disease. So is diabetes  or where a person can step on a nail and not feel anything due to necrosis in the extremities. Cancer is another dramatically consciousness-depleted disease as it can grow unnoticed to destroy life.

There are further reasons why I uphold this view.

CONSCIOUSNESS DEFINED
At the foundation of the raw-wisdom view is the simple but revolutionary proposition that “consciousness forms a potentially  universal relationship of connection in nature.”

IMPLICATIONS
Among the powerful implications of the above unique statement is a direct challenge to the math-based vision of nature that has fully dominated us for four centuries and which supposedly best helps connect our vision and understanding of the cosmos – the philosophy of Newton, Galileo and Descartes. This  formed the essentially modern way of seeing nature.

WHY THE MODERN VISION IS CONTRADICTORY
That view is actually and very deeply contradictory. It lacks lacks integrity because of what I will explain in a moment and it  points only to surface appearances. The reason is that math symbols uniquely direct us to principles of separation in nature. To count two apples they have to be separate. Make applesauce and you can’t count them anymore. Math symbols are not the mystical tools for God’s plan for nature that Newton assumed and then popularized. This is why those quantitative symbols do direct us to build machines made of separate parts and that are distinctly unconscious. This is also why the modern world is so globally destroying much of living and sentient nature. Ultimately this is why allopathic medicine, grounded in this misguiding worldview, fails to integrally heal with chemical drugs, surgery and radiation – and also points to mostly surface  or symptom ameliorations which are not depth-real.

AT THE ROOT OF HEALING
What consciousness does is it c-o-n-n-e-c-t-s our inner being together as one. The presence of consciousness keeps us whole and alive.  The absence or loss fosters diseases. Lose more consciousness, and we lose life  in the body. The body falls apart then and turns to dust.  Thus raising consciousness either by physical or inner means is very integral to all healing. Healing is symbolized by a cut that mends or re-c0nnects – that regains integral consciousness within. But healing can also be engendered simply by educating, by raising the  level of insight past illusions and deceptions about things that do not heal but harm our bodies.

ULTIMATELY
Ultimately it is a lowering of consciousness that forms the disease process. Each just has a different surface mask. This is also why non-physical approaches like meditation, emotional healing and adequate sleep can further help pull us together or to heal.

THE  QUACKING CLAIMS
There are a few of sites on the Web that claim to unravel the “real dirt” of the holistic health movement. They include vicious attacks on the therapies that work the best. These are especially pounced upon for obvious reasons. They serve as significant competition to the pharmaceutical, surgical, and radiation industries. When I wrote to one of these sites asking who their corporate sponsors were, there was no response.

On such sites, the general tone is usually to categorize conventional approaches as the only successful ones based on “science”  and holistic alternatives as being baseless dogma created by individuals who do have foggy minds, harbor ideologies, treasure theories that contradict facts, and have never done or published real peer-reviewed research plus have no authentic credentials.

THE PSCYHOLOGICAL GAME OF SUPERIOR-AUTHORITY POSTURING
These sites are, in essence, superior-authority posturing that also demean others with arrogance. God forbid there should be an ounce of doubt or humility in making their declarations. Arrogance is a sign of a closed, left-brain-dominant mind.  The disseminating of mountains of misinformation is a craft that does harm. But what else is new!

WHY WE NEED RAW-WISDOM
It is left-brain dominant posturing that is fake and a right-brain approach that is authentic – why we need more raw-wisdom

According to a new study conducted in both New Zealand  and the UK and published in the British Journal of Cancer vegetarians have a lower risk of getting cancer than meat eaters.

NEW STUDY

The researchers followed 61,566  adults and compared cancer rates among three groups: vegetarians, those whose diet only added fish flesh foods, and lastly non-vegetarians. They found the lifetime risk of developing cancer among the vegetarians was the lowest. It was 14% lower than non-vegetarians and thus the general population. The protective effect was much greater for stomach cancer, bladder cancer, Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma and blood cancers (50% less for both lymph and blood cancers). More dramatic yet was the bone marrow cancer risk ((75% less). Bone marrow cancer is known as multiple myeloma . Fish eaters ranked in between – had lower lymph and blood cancers than non-vegetarians but higher than non-vegetarians.

RAW VEGANS
All of this is not very surprising to me. The figures are more dramatic if we compare raw vegans to fish and or meat eaters, especially those who regularly detoxify and/or use green juices and blends. It is not necessary to have any chronic ailments if one understands and follows the deeper laws of nature. I saw this first hand when I help Charlotte Gerson plan, organize a natural cancer treatment center  – The Gerson Wellness Center at Sedona

MEAT DIGESTION
Meat digestion requires a hydrochloric acid to digest and releases various acids into the blood stream. This is what puts the blood and lymph at risk – especially if the intake of meats is more than 5% of the total caloric intake. This is a rather low threshold and below which the blood can still neutralize the acidic effect. Above the 5% it begins to falter. With more meat in the diet, the blood becomes acidic and also begins to leach alkaline minerals from the bones, thus the predictable susceptibility to bone marrow cancer as well as arthritis and other bone and joint ailments.

LIES OF OUR COMMERCIAL CULTURE
The meat industry won’t tell you the truth about any of this. Cancer, cardiovascular disease  and diabetes form a close triad of illnesses in countries of affluence, and in direct proportion to the level of meat eating.  This was brought out with the greatest of clarity in The China Study. All three of these ailments were almost non-existent a hundred years ago in the US, that is before the Standard American Diet (SAD) developed with a high intake of meat and dairy as staples. The allopathic treatment of these illnesses with medications, radiation and surgery – also stunts and bypasses, chemotherapy and insulin, have been shown to be largely a failure. They have done little or nothing to stop these pandemics.  As one of the most prominent natural physicians, Dr. Joel Fuhrman, has stated, the allopathic approaches are a fraud upon the consumer. The medical profession ignores what works and promotes what makes money. The major agricultural, pharmaceutical and other institutions influence the media to continue the misinformation and Ponzi scheme, dwarfing the heist of Bernard Madoff.

THE CHINA STUDY

What ultimately turned me around, and made me switch to a pure vegan diet after over 20 years of being a vegetarian (since 1981) was reading The China Study. This is the single most important nutritional study of all time, in my opinion. It is what the NY Times called “the Grand Prix- the most comprehensive large study ever undertaken of the relationship between diet and the risk of developing disease.” About a month ago I got a copy of a short booklet called The China Project, just 30 pages long, that summarizes the gist of the China Study. I bought a few copies to give to friends and was going to buy a 100 more. Then I realized even that brief outline was not enough to really get the word out. So I made up a condensed version of this information. This is for a still quicker read. It is about 6 pages long. I am finishing this up shortly and it will be distributing free to all who sign up as new subscribers at raw-wisdom.com
