Intrinsic

About the blog

   Ever since hypnosis was identified (and somewhat described) there's been a follow up question that no one seems to want have asked.  That very well might be a huge assumption and completely backwards.  Instead, the mind could have been easily understood and explained decades ago but no one saved their notes.

   There's only a few things someone needs to know first:

• The whole mind is made up of 2 sub minds.
• They function as complementary to each other.
• Each specializes more and more into it's primary occupation over time:
• Consciousness
• Awareness
• Awareness is the primary occupation of the unconscious sub mind.
• Consciousness is the primary occupation of the conscious sub mind.
• Even when all other awareness is gone, consciousness can remain.

   That short list of the intrinsic properties of our mind provides all the information to explain the following:

• How does hypnosis actually work?
• Why does it work in one particular situation but not work in another?
• How can one person be affected by it but not another?
• What exactly is the power of suggestion?

   Once those questions are answered it's possible to answer others:

• Why is our mind made up of 2 sub minds?

   And though you should only consider this as an opinion, it should also be possible to answer these:

• When was it approximately that our mind became the way it is now?
• When did awareness give way to consciousness? (same question, different presentation)
• What was it that allowed for groups of more than a few to live together?
• What was it that made towns, cities, societies possible?

   Now to the real question behind all this...

   The things all listed are intrinsic properties that should be identifiable and recognizable by pretty much anyone.

   So where are all those "Theories of the Mind" kind of things?
