RE: Who's that bunch of people in your head? How to meet the highest authority in yourself.
interesting.
it would be worth investigating a little more with what character you actually would describe these natural impulses. Because, when they differ from each other, you can already give them a name. When impulse A says: "Yes, help that woman because she needs protection" and another impulse B says: "But it can be dangerous to help her because this man could get aggressive towards me" you have two different voices. Also, a character C can come up, saying: "I am tired. Just turn around and look the other way"
Does this occur to you? Maybe when you focus on the moment you hesitate a little on a decision - which is actually something likely to happen with the scene in the subway.
What do you say?
I think that only the resolution of the conflict between all those impulses would come to me, but yes, it is possible that it is as you say.
Great! That's exactly I was pointing at in my article: to become aware that one has something like a "highest authority" or as you say: a resolution. In order to see and become conscious about ones impulses. In particular, when one becomes aroused or insecure, this "inner appointment" with the resolution part can be extremely helpful.
