Adaptability - Act 13 part 2 - attunement
Continuing from part 1. A tracker needs to be able to read signs and move silently with agility. A singer trains both their body and hearing, an artisan their eyes, taste, and hand skills, a dancer tunes their body to gravity and sound. What of the mathematician the theoretical physicist or fictional novelist? What do they tune to? Is there a physical component or are they floating free from reality?
When we build physical skills and talents, our focus is deeply in our senses, "greater presence" is both the requisite and the reward for high performance.
What of the purely analytical? Steven Hawkins is not the first genius and thought leader to exist in a wreck of a body. Mal-aligned posture can distort our sensitivity and make it harder to interact with gravity, for some this loss of focus can be dangerous.
Those who work with their minds are also bound by consequence but the interaction is less direct, the feedback is less or even completely intangible. They will need to trial an idea in the real world, building experiments to isolate cause and effects. Or for the novelist, their success depends on how others receive their work.
How does the “mentalist” tune their art, when there is no sensory feedback to guide them?
Well perhaps there is, perhaps they are “tuning” in and that the parameters of that focus can do have a physical counterpart?

Creative writing. There is a lot to learn. The words are also a great education. Some people are born with the best abilities. Some people make the best environment for them. There is a different way of thinking and looking at our things. Apparently, it seems normal to see falling down apples from a tree. But it was not for the scientist ISAAC NEWTON. The invention of gravity is based on the same thinking. Stephen Hocking was also different from the way to think about which, due to his severe illness, he also made the means of disclosure of power.
memories are such powerful filters.
We tend to over value them.
They are anchored by our needs, and our needs are largely fictitious
What do I really, absolutely, need right now?
What is merely a desire anchored with a mild discomfort?
Is it the level of discomfort that drives my actions, how I will spend my energy and time
Or is my motivation, my call to action, driven by something other than tension, stress, embodied fear?
Of course is it ok, to follow desire, compulsion and the alleviation of tension, but I wonder what we might be led by if we trusted our senses more than our memories?
How might that effect our larger investments and energy flows, the choices available to our children's children?
Are we building a world based on fear and control, on structures designed to create and take away tension, to guide the flows of energy?
Or are we building a world that appreciates and harmonises with the existing food chains, water, carbon and nitrogen cycles?
Are we curious about what nature was doing, or only about how to manipulate that? By overselling the benefits, hiding the costs and by guiding focus away from nature and keeping it in tension - in needs and desires - in memory rather than real time sensation?
I do not see all this as an evil master plot, more like a grand mystery, a really bizarre side chain in evolutions tenacious imperative to keep the bang from collapsing..just yet.
It's all right with you. We humans understand their development as a modern science, whereas it is very harmful too. We are running a lot against the power. Snow showers are melting glaciers. Temperature rise
The new generation has taken place in the world of a machine. We do not want to know about the weather change. Getting Started Against Nature.
What about dealing with sensory memories stored in their minds like mental images, old thoughts(the knowledge they already have), sounds, and smells. They can provide the sensory feedback required for mental labour.
You always ask such amazing questions that help me to look more even more deeply. Give me some time to absorb this and perhaps I too can share what it is you have found this time my friend.
:)
Adaptability is only thing which makes human better from other animals. Human can easily adjust in any environment. Do which animal have most endurance
sometimes I feel that biology is one flowing event that emerges from and dissolves back into organic matter. The "food chains" that formed over millennia were perfect and expanding in complexity, synchronicity and dare I say it....synergy.
This habit of comparing everything in terms of our own personal advantage, while completely understandable, perhaps comes to hamper our ability to understand completely?
If we do not understand, then what will we produce?
Its fine, we learn by making mistakes.
I do wish we could be more clear about what was working really well, and which mistakes we should probably re-assess and possibly re-wind.
Such as agriculture for instance...
But that is another story for another day.
👏👏 i didn't expect this. The way you explain everything like a teacher who's experience and knowledge is way higher than his student or in this case me. Your writting skills are so refine and precise to which i will never cope up in this span of life
perhaps we all hold different pieces to the puzzle of life. I dont have higher knowledge or special experience, I do have a burning curiosity that is bigger than anything I could personally gain from it, that helps to keep me outwardly focused on inward issues....hmm not sure if that even makes sense lol...Anyway thank you for reading I am glad you we can share the words and explore possible meanings.
Curiosity is the real substance needed in our to make our dreams true. With curiosity our journey of success never starts. Like i told you your are like a teacher. Today you teach me or reminds a very vital lesson of life.
Salute to professor @freemoceanisnow
As we know the mental power is most powerful of our body ,it modules every seconds with the situation . we don't have need to tell it what is going ,and what you can do now ??
The sense power of mind is very strong ,it can read situation only in few minutes, then it takes suitable action for it .
If our mental power and sensing power are working ,not responding according to that situation ,then we can say mental disorder.
Thanks for such beautiful blog .
I really appreciate the example about the the hunter,singer and dancer,it gave a complete definetion of adptability , its in human nature .
There is nature which we see as energy expressing itself through gravity and the electromagnetic spectrum of forces, biology exists within that possibility.
Human nature does not lie outside or separate from this reality.
We store memories and respond to their conditioning, for our believed benefit. We call this intelligence but surely that would be determined by the grace of our actions and how they inter-grate with what the rest of what biology is doing?
Most of our intelligence is in fact at war with nature, at war with our inability to accept discomfort. We use fear to avoid fear and in doing so it is all we are left with.
To step out of that circle, we can return to pure sensation, setting aside our reactivity to assumptions. Outside the conditions that become our own programming, we may feel life as it is - an inevitable flow in and out of death. so long as an environment of complex food chains exists for that to take place.
