Mind and the parasitism of life:

Though the majority of life, as estimated and seen by myself today, is a means to energy, and it is easier to take energy away from other life, whether living, dead or half-dead, in a manner of theft; this is easier than it is to condition organic resource from the ground-up, so most life is a parasite. It is constantly thieving and taking away, destroying life in order to live.

Mind is alive, isn’t it? And so, mind must arise in life, but life is mostly a parasitic feeding process. So the mind is often this also, baring the nature of that which has given birth to its direction. Mind in world, it interjects itself, the majority of all men’s ideas are not of their own origination, the sheepish front that men so swiftly claim is intelligent: the mime. This process of immitation, is a reflective version of the parasitic worm, taking reflections and steeling original ideas instead of taking blood and steeling substance. The mind is constantly grasping, grasping at, graspig back, holding at and holding back, clinging to forms and images, taking and consuming itself, a leech which resists and refutes all outside of its hungry bondage.

I find the majority of you persons as harmful and unwise, and this sort of idea could probably be varified; to expect any different would be rediculus; it would be like begging a toad for help in the forest; it would be like asking the sun for rain; it would be like asking the trees for milk; it would be like asking a bear for protection; it would be like asking the cows for helpful advice. – The whole process excludes the majority of the universe and all things social, for its focus and meager mortality must revolve instead around its constant feeding, its taking, its tiny energy-loop.

For this I’ll assure you, that most of the life all around yourself, would be more likely to eat you than to make you any wiser. So where shall your wisdom come from, if it cannot normally come from life? Man has made a society, a society that has knowledge, but it’s hardly a wise society, and it’s hardly social. They’ve barely moved out of the habits of eating eachother, and only one foot is out of that door. But, they are what they eat, quite literally, their body is made from and of its intake.

So, this brings me to my next point, that the Ayangaras knew of a certain kind of monopolization and a basking. According to they, a higher mind cannot be taken in from the common places, and intelligence/correctness is an actual substantial element, flowing from certain outer-nature caches. A mind that is not a virus, is extra-terrestrial and extra-physical. A mind of a certain level of intelligence, must not be this low and mindless process of cannibalism and linear robotic life. A mind of a certain higher level of intelligence, simply cannot come from people micro-organisms eating eachother. There must be a greater united and reflective process, a higher light above, a substance that is not this linear parasitism. Higher intelligence is a supernatural phenomenon, of which persons may only see rare fractions of, but do they ever experience the whole higher intelligence? And does it come from something other than life?

Is the mind alive? The brain’s cells behave very differently than the bacteria of the dirt would behave. The brain’s cells do not constantly clone themselves and eat others. They exist instead as a united collective whole, molecularily constructing and repairing itself, instead of living like the machines do. In order for the brain substance to sustain intellignece, even this low human intelligence, there must be a sort of perminance, of creative union. A different paradigm other than the life process. Something, some kind of system that actually runs counter to the world, because instinct and reason often run counter to eachother. Isn’t that why the old cultures held the mind as the soul, as something supernatural? As something that does not live the way that the body lives?

Dan~ I would assess most everything is symbiotic in nature. There are bacteria in our intestinal tract which could be viewed to be parasitic, but are vital to our digestive processes. Along with those are microscopic mites along our eyelids which are beneficial to thier health. There are anamolies which due to genetic abnormalities grow without purpose that we can not perceive as helpful such as cancer. I suggest it’s not the cancer that is culprit, rather the action or environment not inherent as a normal entity to be the cause which makes it flourish.

The same thing could be said of the mind. When abnormal deteriorating thoughts and ideas are introduced, it deviates from healthful processes. I would suggest we are born and develop the brain cells necessary for reasonable cognitive abilities. How we allow our brain to proceed is up to our moral and ethical sensibilities are nurtured. If you let negative ideas pervade the fabric of thought, then that is how you life will propagate. If we go along in life and slowly push aside positive, moral tenets, our minds will become parasites on society. Slow desensitization of our mind will be the downfall of the human race unless we make a concerted effort to stem the tide of wreckless thought.

What one calls life is actually electrons moving in co-valences
It is not life: but electrons bonding in different ratios, orbits or co-valences.
[You get hungry because covalences have changed(electrons have migrated).]

electrons move in an energy field.

The mind is the parasite.

Sentience=parasite?

Yet this human thing could live without hate, war, nationalism, religion, patriotism, etc., if not for this entity that lives within.

Do you think those things you listed evolved from a bored existence to feed the parasite?

the human thing in pure survival mode those not know “bored”.
But the parasite gets bored and conjures up ideas.
