The Abyss
Throughout my life I have been actively searching for answers to the many puzzles and contradictions regarding Homo Sapiens. Especially to the origin of the specie, the questions are: Who are we, What are we and Why we are here and Why do we behave the way we do.
The pat solutions conventional science and scientists have come up with have too many missing pieces and logically; too many of the existing pieces do not fit the picture they are describing.
Our society, social and cultural has created a world with a pre-perceived 'Reality' and only the found pieces that fit this 'Reality' are accepted by the majority of the scientific community and the population in general.
However, I am one of those people who do not belong to the majority and I could and cannot accept the status quo. I had to find at least some of the answers to the many discrepancies.
I did find many of the answers, so many in fact that most of the beliefs and ideas that are accepted as basic facts and the history of this planet are wrong because they are based on the wrong assumptions. Many facts and assumptions that are correct are only correct in a small slice of a greater Reality. What humanity thinks of a 'Reality' are mostly artificial constructed walls of a backward of thinking, which has separated us from the rest of the Universe.
Now, because of what I have found, I am sitting on the edge of an Abyss. Of course, it is not really an abyss, it just feels like it is because once entered one cannot turn back -knowledge once learned cannot be un-learned. I found the answers to three of the questions asked, and I also found I cannot tell the secret to anyone; each individual must find the Abyss by him or herself.
Also, the path to get to the Abyss is not one that can be taught, it is a path one must look for. Others before me have walked the 'The Path' and there are signposts along the way.
The Abyss is not some great bottomless chasm, but the Unconscious Mind we all possess (also called the subconscious mind). It is not just what Psychiatrists think it is; some place where is hidden dark and terrible secrets we cannot bear to face. What it really there, is the rest of your mind, the nine-tenth you have not been using.
By the door to the Abyss I sit and now I know how to open the door.
If I or anyone opens the door, one will have access to one's whole mind, to the real Reality and to the rest of the Universe. In the process, one will be so far advanced, from the rest of humanity, that one will have become as an Alien; someone that they would not be able to understand or comprehend.
Do I dare open that door, yes, I will change that to when I open that door; I will be one of the few who has the use of one's whole mind. And, one of the first humans who is not mad, but have become absolutely-totally Sane; and that, for many, is the most frightening prospect.
