Ninth Descent — Farming

This increased our anxiety and mistrust and the consequent compulsion to control ... out of fear of lack of resources ... and the next part of Nature that compulsion was directed to was the plant kingdom. We began growing our food — horticulture — to augment our gathering and hunting. This led to farming, to the agrarian revolution, and to agriculture, in time.

Tenth Descent — Husbandry

Controlling now our food sources through planetmate flesh (meat) and the plant kingdom, the next step was naturally to begin growing those planetmates in place, just as we had their distant sister plants. This is called domestication of animals or animal husbandry.

Eleventh Descent — Sedentary Life and Storage

Now, all this sedentary living, required for farming and husbandry, made it that we could store more things, which we were not wont to do when we were nomadic and would have had to lug it with us. Hence, we were “settled” in place, and we stored things.

Why does a self-help book seem transformative for three weeks and almost irrelevant by the fourth?

The problem may not be the reader or even the book. The problem may be that every personal-development system presents one useful layer as though it were the whole.

Jim Rohn offers philosophy, responsibility, and a sense of direction, but little guidance for the moment when a person knows what to do and still does not act.

Brian Tracy offers goals, priorities, and practical architecture, but often assumes a rational, rested executor who will simply carry out the plan.

Tony Robbins offers tools for changing state and moving through resistance, but energy without an examined destination can power the wrong machine.

This essay places those contributions inside a larger system and adds the missing fourth layer: reality.

Reality includes circumstances, institutions, health, economics, obligations, chance, and every other condition that effort can influence but cannot fully command.

The resulting framework rejects both magical thinking and structural fatalism. It argues that we should take responsibility for our response without pretending that we caused every condition to which we must respond.

You are not powerless.

You are not unlimited.

You possess agency, but that agency is bounded. The purpose of personal development is not to deny those bounds. It is to learn how to operate intelligently, ethically, and persistently within them.

Why does self-help work briefly and then collapse? Bounded agency offers a practical system built on purpose, planning, action, and reality.

THE DESCENTS OF MAN

Page 13

Seventh Descent — Hunting

While in Nature, our needs were taken care of, but with this increasing mistrust and out of the fear that it engendered, we began thinking we needed to augment our vegetarian diet. We began killing planetmates, which we call hunting.

Eighth Descent — Murder

Killing planetmates, who are so much like us, and with the repression of conscience required, or, one might say the insensitivity, that came of that, we were able to kill each other. Cain killed Abel is the way The Bible expresses that, metaphorically.

Ninth Descent — Farming

This increased our anxiety and mistrust and the consequent compulsion to control ... out of fear of lack of resources ... and the next part of Nature that compulsion was directed to was the plant kingdom.

Life Beyond Boxes

Not everything fits in neat categories.
The best things in life flow beyond labels -
complex, beautiful, real.

What’s something in your life that defies categories?

PROLOGUE: PRIMAL PSYCHOLOGY, FARTHER REACHES OF EXPERIENCE

Page 36

…opening up to experiences that occurred before one’s birth and to the relatively contented state of early womb experience. One might need to re-member one’s euphoric blastocyst experience even further back, and sometimes, even, need to tap in to events and experiences before sperm experience, sometimes to connect with egg (ovum) experiences going all the way back to when one was a cell within the ovarian sac within one’s mother, in order to access these truly transformative reorientations to one’s world.

Furthermore, beyond these joy grids I postulated spiritual grids, which were spiritual and philosophical ways of living and perceiving reality and looking at the world, which were beyond the joy grids in both quality of beneficence and scope and in their access. What I discovered was that living the joy grids led to earlier primal experiences at the cellular level — specifically, sperm, egg, zygote, and blastocyst — which had characteristically spiritual components and that this coincided with life experience which brought those spiritual perspectives into practice and use and expanded and deepened them.

Sixth Descent — Mistrust

Both traumas — birth trauma and fetal malnutrition — contributed to the growth of that Ego and affected our personalities in many and varied ways. Part of this was the way it made imperfect humans even more lacking in caring for their infants. Thus we “acquired” even more primal pain because of insufficient satisfaction of needs.

Mistrust of Nature Led to Control Compulsion

Altogether we learned, early in our lives, that the world around us could not be relied on. Consequently, we began an ever-increasing mistrust of the world, which manifested, critically, in our relation to Nature and our feelings about how well we could have our needs met in it. Since we mistrusted, we began controlling. Control came in to fill the gap of mistrust that lay between need and satisfaction.
