Re Talk: 324

      There is much that would tend to explain itself if you but understood one of the basic partnerships I have already mentioned.  That is, the memories and messages of the older, lower circuits in the verbal hands of these younger dudes and dudettes.  To understate it charitably, you would be surprised what the younger circuits do with it.  I was not being crude when I asked you the rhetorical, musical question:  what else is there to want besides being fed, sexually satisfied and tucked in next to a warm fire?  Not that wanting anything more is wrong -- nothing wrong whatsoever.  Everything beyond the lower circuit needs, from cars to reputations, can be seen as the objects of a "squeeze" put on the lower circuits.  It's as though you have to take eating, screwing, and sleeping and squeeze 'em a little bit more.  Maybe they finally say, "Okay, okay, let's do this...uh...I need a $100 outfit, these animal skins won't do...just quit squeezing me, we'll get a nice apartment, who needs this cave anyway."  The thing is, you can see it all as being a reflection of the simple nonverbal needs.

     It is tricky, because notice -- when your consciousness is confined to the partnership, it takes all of this as being an attack.  Ordinary consciousness only has a choice of hearing what is said as either "support" or "attack."  That's why there is no parallel information available in the forum.  In the forum, to have interest is to be biased.  To be conscious is to be conscious in an episodic manner, and every episode has some feel to it.  The partnership between the older nonverbal circuits and the new circuits is the nature of the Blue Line Forum.  It is the nature of civilization in general and humanity as a whole.  There is a middle ground which has to do with what appears to be the three dimensional time growth of the circuits, from Red into Blue into Yellow.  There are groups of people on this planet right now whose development in this manner has not reached yours.  But in you is that same group of people.  In your nervous system is an Alabama "red neck":  conservative, reactionary and almost illiterate.  There's no need to go look for a pickup truck with a gun rack.  If you need that kind of cheap laugh, get a pocket mirror from Woolworth's...

     This partnership evolves into a strange struggle that is unseen and completely misnamed by ordinary consciousness.  It is the messages and memories of the older circuits -- still necessary and still needed -- in the hands, ultimately, of the Yellow Circuit, which must talk about them.  This produces, from a Revolutionary view, many...oh...let's call them hemi-bizarre conditions in Life.
