…saying that they would not occur except for the birth traumas, and to that they do not agree. 

The Mythological-Archetypal Veil

I have a different take on it, however. I do not dispute that some of their view is true. I really do not know the ontological status of these birth-like mythological and archetypal symbols. Nonetheless, I view the actual events of one’s life as having strong determination on the way one views and interprets everything that comes after them. That would include these transpersonal and archetypal realities as being at least shaped, if not caused, by our early experiences. 

My difference lies in two things: One, that these events shape or they  configure our religious and spiritual understandings, especially our re- ligious ones, is what I elaborate upon, especially in this book and the three  following it. However, I do not know the extent to which these events create or originate these transpersonal realities. Yet, in view of the findings brought out in my works, Planetmates (2014) and Prodigal Human (2016) — which detail the way humans evolved (devolved) the peculiar kind of birth we suffer from, which is radically distinct from all of Nature — it is curious to think what it might mean for these events, specifically resonating with our unique birth experiences, to have an existence independent of humans.

So who is still with me? Well, if you followed all that, you would see that such groups can be continually broken down ... can be infinitely broken down, you will soon see ... into even smaller subgroups. Neighborhoods can be broken down into separate family cultures, for example. And where from there? 

Well, we see that, yes, it is true, each and every individual can her- or himself be considered a culture, in that there are understandings,  procedures, ways of thinking, and all the rest that are not held in common with anyone else at all but are unique to each individual. That is often referred to as personality, a person’s unique personality, but it goes beyond that to unique facts of each individual that are not even, by other individuals, observable! The difference between individual culture and personality is a matter of emphasis in that individual culture pertains to patterns, realities, facts, and ways of looking at or construing the world primarily from the perspective of the individual, whereas personality usually applies to those things as observed, to the extent they are observed, and referred to by others. 

Nevertheless, one might say culture, as it pertains to groups and societies, reduced to its foundation, is simply another way of referring to individual psychologies, or personalities, but doing it cumulatively. Culture is collective psychology, in a sense.

PRE/PERINATAL PSYCHOLOGY AND PHENOMENON OF RE-EXPERIENCE

Page 23

Frank Lake

Breathwork, First Trimester, Early Experience as Foundation for Myths

Frank Lake, though less well-known again, has probably been the premier theoretician on the topic of prenatal events during the first three months of gestation. Just prior to his death in the early eighties, he wrote a culmination of his thirty-year investigation into pre- and perinatal influence in two works titled Tight Corners in Pastoral Counselling and The First Trimester. In these works he goes beyond his other works (for example, 1966) in placing the roots of all later experience, and in particular, distress, at the first three months of physical existence.

Lake began his investigation of re-experience in 1954. Like Stanislav Grof, he did this using LSD, initially, in the psycholytic therapy that was being developed at that time to facilitate therapeutic abreaction.

Only by Leaving Can a Fish Know It Lives in Water: Biologically Constituted Realities Summary and A Call to  End Science’s Culture War

Biologically Constituted Realities Summary

What I am saying here in Part One, “Reality, Human and Otherwise — Biologically Constituted Realities” is that basically our sciences have shown they cannot determine what is real, let alone measure it, because they are extensions of our senses which are themselves imperfect. So we cannot really know what is real. Further, we find that just as culture creates our reality for us, that prior to that our biology creates the reality upon which culture can build. This means that we are able to understand what is human reality at least, though not ultimate reality, by looking at the only reality that all humans share — our biological one.

…themselves and the world, only. For they are on their raft made of luggage, indicating the paltry number of things — physical but also emotional “baggage” — that are required to be taken along on the journey of life, or, more accurately, on the stormy and crooked path to self.

It is nighttime, and again, dominating the starlit sky there is a huge image of a moon. More about the meaning of this scene in just a little bit, but for now, let us focus on the meaning of a lunar theology that these two striking scenes are indicating.

Lunar Theologies, Solar Theologies

What is the meaning of lunar in lunar theology? A lunar theology is not in denial of the darkness of life ... it acknowledges, just like a night scene with a full moon, that life is lived in darkness — of our true selves and the nature of reality — but that it contains a guiding light, a reflection of the Divine (the moon). As humans we find ourselves in a deluded state relative to the Divine, in ignorance and separate, but physical reality is metaphor of the Divine, constantly revealing Itself to us and guiding us hOMe. The Divine is immanent in Nature and ready to reveal Itself to us in any of the moments we will allow It to.

Would we perceive their existence as human changes in pressure, sound, touch, smell, sight, taste? As atmospheric or environmental “ambiance” changes? As solar activity or astronomical phenomena? As change in mood state, or thought pattern? Or hypothalamic or metabolic or heart or respiratory rate change? As nuemenon, “aura,” Words of God, Music of the Spheres?...

Seen Grof’s way, mythological events have an a priori standing; a priori meaning they are not reducible to life events such as the traumas of birth. They arise “of themselves” and have an independent or self-contained quality, not a derived one. According to Grof, transpersonal events are not a posteriori events; they do not “come after.” They are not derived from earlier experience. Which is to say, their existence is not dependent upon — let alone, caused by — the early pre- and perinatal experiences they so express.

While some might say we have the mythologies we do because we all have these early experiences and that is why myths are so similar across different individuals and cultures, proponents of Grof’s view would say that our mythologies are not attributable to our early events and that they exist independently of human life. They are seen as archetypes in the Jungian sense of being outside of and prior to human events. Much like Plato’s Forms, or iconic Ideas, they have a kind of prior and greater reality than the realities that emanate from our events as humans. In fact, the term biological materialism has been used by those in Grof’s camp to describe the idea that birth-like mythological and archetypal symbolism and experiences are derived from birth events. Saying they are derived is…

The Divine Feminine, or Goddess, Is the Divinity We Lose Through Pain of Birth.

Both Genders Need to Re-Unite with a Feminine Within

Heroines, Not Damsels. Rise of the Goddess Resets the Playing Field

In Brazil, along with an increasing number of other movies of modern times, the feminine shows itself as heroine, not damsel. Contemporary culture has integrated an understanding of female as equal and as strong. In doing so, the male’s heroic quest with its saving of the damsel is quaint and an anachronism ... however furiously our reactionary sectors seek to resuscitate it. Meanwhile the rise of the Goddess, among women and men, resets the playing field. How?

Individually Constituted Realities

If not, follow this: Do you see that even the term culture is not a category with clear boundaries and that it might pertain to a huge group of individuals, whereas subgroups of that would constitute separate cultures, each slightly different from the rest, so they are themselves considered cultures. These subgroups are sometimes called subcultures.

But even they have subgroups and subcultures within them. For a culture is a particular set of understandings or ways of seeing that is held in common by a group. And every group, in that sense, can be considered a culture for, indeed, that is how we define a group: It is a number of people that share a common understanding or way of seeing things, and that might simply be in its intent. But also it usually includes its goals, procedures, and more: special language, sometimes called jargon; group constructions — physical and organizational ones as well as temporal ones, i.e., events; as well as ways of behavior, manners of speaking, rules of courtesy, and the like.

In his descriptions of the levels of experience and the matrices of perinatal experience, Grof has provided useful maps of the unconscious and experience in nonordinary states, which have incredible heuristic value in our understanding of cross-cultural religious and spiritual experience, psychopathology, personal growth, and consciousness and personality in general. And they have been utilized successfully in providing a context and guide for many tens of thousands of participants in his psycholytic and holotropic therapies.

However, while Grof is exhaustive in his descriptions of fetal and perinatal experience, he says less about the earlier experiences in the womb — the first trimester — and even less about conception and the experiences of sperm and egg — what is known as cellular consciousness. Still, this area is beginning to be discussed among his followers. And through his current nondrug modality, called holotropic breathwork, people are accessing these areas and beginning to give word to them (e.g., Carter, 1993).

One accepts the “process” as being what is all important. It is not the goal that is crucial, authorities are not needed, one cannot do it for anyone else. It focuses on Divinity as being inherent, which means that one reaches the truth on one’s own, one is healed by surrender not by fee to a professional. One risks societal standing, luxury, salary, even life and limb, and does not slough off responsibility for the evil of the world to some anonymous organization or to some imagined individuals who, one rationalizes, are “higher up” and “more in the know.” One stands up, oneself, for a cause greater than oneself ... one that is truly important, even necessary. One becomes the necessary hero. This is the crooked path to Self.

When one embraces the Mystery of life ... when one seeks to learn from its exigencies not focus all one’s energy on dragon slaying, that is, keeping all risk away ... a moonful of new and exciting possibilities are born. One’s life is renewed, and one has a new appreciation for it.

…we not be in a situation analogous to that of the earthworm to us? And how would we know what would be perceived with those senses? Why would we bother to, how could we, even, measure the referents in the “out there” corresponding to such hypothetical senses in a way that they would somehow be included in our science?

Furthermore, keeping in mind that earthworm, we can assume, for the sake of argument, that it perceives a Homo sapiens as something  earthwormo-centrically akin to pressure, an obstacle, or earthwormo- molecular vibrations, in other words, earthworm hot-or-coldness. That  is how it might perceive us. Are there any among my readers who believe it would perceive us the way we do? I doubt it.

Now, understanding that our senses are not omniscient either — they are limited — how would we perceive beings or entities that are outside of or not sufficiently perceived by our limited senses? Indeed, how would we even know of the existence of such other sentient beings — not to mention other even more unimaginable realities — who or which could hypothetically be outside of the range and/or number of our biologically unique senses?

…influential Veils, distorting our perceptions of reality, still earlier experiences are even more influential. For what happens first lays down the foundation upon which all later prejudices will be constructed.

To this end, several theorists in particular — beginning with Otto Rank as long ago as 1929, with his book The Trauma of Birth, and including Nandor Fodor (1949), Frances Mott (1960, 1964), and Michael Irving (1988), but especially coming out in expansive detail with Stanislav Grof (1970, 1979, 1980, 1985, 1988a, 1993, 1998) — have noted the cross-over of birth experiences and traumas with religious and mythological beliefs and symbols.

Of special relevance is that in Grof’s view they are distinct. That is, pre- and perinatal events are distinct from transpersonal events according to him. Transpersonal in this sense, in line with transpersonal psychology, refers to the spiritual, archetypal, mythological, supernatural, and religious components of experience. Grof’s perspective is that birth events represent a kind of junction spot between the transpersonal and the personal; thus, between the spiritual and the individual aspects of experience, or between the collective unconscious and the personal unconscious, to use Carl Jung’s terminology.

…Matrix I (BPM I) is related to the generally blissful or “oceanic” feelings that often characterize the fetus’s state in the womb in early and middle pregnancy. BPM II is characterized by “no exit,” hellish feelings that are related to the situation of the fetus in late pregnancy when the confines of the womb become ever more apparent but there is as yet no indication of any possibility of relief. BPM III relates to the birth process itself, the birth struggle, which is still characterized by feelings of compression and suffering but in which there is movement and change and thus hope of relief through struggle. If BPM II can be compared to hell, where there is no hope, BPM III is more like purgatory. Finally, BPM IV relates to the actual entry into the world, the termination of the birthing process, and is characterized by feelings of triumph, relief, and high, even manic, elation.

Why not rise and reach forth to new and inclusive thought that embraces the facts of existence, instead of a kind of thinking that requires either a psychic numbing to the avalanche of new evidence or a thick and sturdy guard against information from all but thoroughly sanctioned and sanitized, perfectly safe and riskless, or intractably bureaucratized sources? I must point out that by now many scientists, of diverse fields, have abandoned the old model long ago and, at this point, consider its inadequacy to be well-nigh common knowledge. Having been over to the new paradigm a while, they feel it to be familiar territory; they find it useful (after all!), stable, workable, and even pleasurable terrain. They await the rest of us in the adventure of splicing or merging our insights about an explanatory framework that has room for the evidence of the new techniques and sciences; and thereby blowing away the door jammed, opening it wide to the next new phase of discovery of the nature of reality that is called the scientific enterprise.

Then he finishes with words that say everything, “I forgot ... how BIG!”

“Thank you.”

“Thank you for my life.”

So, this scene is a clue to the lunar theology the movie portrays, but it shows again the rising of awareness of the Divine in all these matriarchal and lunar ways — through observation of Nature (the moon); as a result of experience of life and suffering; arising only when one has surrendered and struggled no more; and occurring when one’s Ego has been stripped down sufficiently by the exigencies of life to be able to let it in (the hero’s emaciated self, the sinking of the luxury yacht). It says that one becomes transformed when one’s Ego has been diminished sufficiently and one can allow the process to have its way totally.

One accepts the “process” as being what is all important. It is not the goal that is crucial, authorities are not needed, one cannot do it for anyone else. It focuses on Divinity as being inherent, which means that one reaches the truth on one’s own, one is healed by surrender not by fee to a professional.

Our Knowledge Is Biased

Indeed, can we assume, in fairness, that our own senses are capable of perceiving all major aspects of “objective” reality, granting, even, if in limited or distorted fashion? By analogy, it would be ridiculous to suppose that an earthworm or an amoeba ... with apparently few, and more limited, senses ... “knows” of the existence of our species in any ways other than, if anything, a series of obstacles, changes in pressure or temperature, or, well, whatever it is that comprises an earthworm’s or amoeba’s “worldview.” 

Correspondingly, can we automatically assume that our particular number and set of senses, with their particular ranges, are the endpoint, the pinnacle of what is possible in terms of perceiving “world”? If a sixth, a seventh, an eighth, an nth number of “types” of senses were possible, how would we know of that possibility with our five? Would…

For at this point we border on the truly astounding and mind-blowing. All else may be interesting, is no doubt instrumental, is most of it useful; that is, in a practical psychological or spiritual sense. But here is where we “get real.” That phrase will be seen to never have been so true and profound as it is in its applicability here.

This third book of Dance of the Seven Veils pulls to the side the final Veil on Naked Reality. We see the soulular, the No-Form State, the face of Ultimate Divinity. And ... we find ... our Original Face, which is discovered to be part and parcel of all of that. Knowing this thing, one knows everything.

He noted a tendency for growth and healing to occur in a progressive way through these levels. The sensory band is the level of expanded sensory awareness and is usually initially encountered by participants. The biographical band is the realm of the personal unconscious wherein unintegrated and traumatic memories and material from childhood and one’s personal history are retrieved, often relived, and integrated. The perinatal level of experience usually follows after dealing with the biographical material and involves the remembering, re-experiencing, and integrating of material that is related to the time prior to and surrounding birth. The transpersonal band, the level of spiritual experience, is usually reached after dealing with the other three levels.

Four Modes of Experiencing — the Basic Perinatal Matrices

Grof has also delineated four matrices of experience, four general experiential constructs, which he called basic perinatal matrices (BPMs). He discovered that experiences at all levels of the unconscious often group themselves in four general ways that are roughly related to the four stages of birth. Thus, Basic Perinatal…
