Treasure to those with eyes to see…

You have a set of senses that you are probably unaware of and do not understand. They depend, largely, upon what we call your ‘peripheral vision’. In order to learn about them, you must attend them closely consistently for a reasonable period of time (at least a few weeks).

One way to do this, is to limit your PV with a hood that encloses your face. You should be -=extremely careful about this experiment, and not pilot vehicles of any kind during it=-. Turn off your PV, or limit it, and watch what happens.

Essentially, your foveal (central) vision is highly linked to your representational consciousness. It sees distinct objects, and helps your mind to define and identify them. It is also ego-like, and ‘knows’ things based on rules. Your peripheral vision is nothing like this. It is like a ‘guardian angel’; it constantly rescues you, and rarely alerts you to these rescues, does not name the threats, takes no credit, hides like crazy, and, essentially, cannot be located to be praised. Its capacities are incredible. It does not have to identify threats to avoid them, and doesn’t need to announce them to you to rescue you from them.

It has saved your life over a million times by the time you are 10 years old. It does this all day long, without recognition, and without praise. If it stopped for recognition or praise, you’d be badly injured or dead. It has its own field of intelligence associated with it, and this intelligence is more like your dreaming than your thinking.

Now, what I want you to understand is this: it is your -peripheral intelligence- which is truly intelligent. It is powerful beyond anything known to your foveal intelligence, and your foveal intelligence may actually resent this. It is aware of the ‘genius ghost’ who lives in its own body, and constantly outperforms it. If it could, it would try to attack and kill its competitor… and that, of course, would kill you.

Discover and awaken your peripheral intelligence, and you will know a prodigy that will shock you to your core. It is far beyond the sum of human stories… and the associated intelligence is far older than our species… older, even than our world.

Nevermind nonsensical stories about gods, angels, demons and fairies. Discover what you’re actually carrying. It will shock you silly, over and over again, and you will never be able to exhaust or surpass its excellence. It is more interesting and alive and dynamic than the sum of human writings.

Listen closely: the word for your central vision? Foveal? It actually means -pitfall-. Understand?
