A Compendium of Observations - E-book - ePub

These stories have evolved from life-experience of a mish-mash concern that this modern environment forces upon us that we can do nothing about except complain. You may find them stupid maybe arrogant, offensive, yet think deeply and you may see that our society is being moulded by conformity to what ends no one knows. The theory of Bicameralism proposed by Julian Jaynes may account for the direction in which our world is going.
Before Man became conscious his little unconscious; "I" now living in a reflective left-lobe metaphorical mind space had internal aural directions from within his brain's right-lobe for safe living. In that time the theory goes, he wasn't conscious, but, as 'writing' evolved the textualisations replaced the aural commands of "God." As consciousness arose within his left-lobe Man lost the aural directives of the internal "God" from the right-lobe and relied on lexicality to survive.
If this theory is correct we are now replacing this lost, Bicameral aurality with textualised dogma in order to make us, 'safe.' Instead of the "In the beginning was the Word, (aural) and the Word was made Man, " we now have, "Man needs the Word (textual) in order to live." Disagree? Look at; Bicameral Democracy that legislates: -- WH&S; ISO Quality; Learning Accreditation and much, much more. All these pseudo-disciplines mandate by textualisation of directives.
The personal experiences of humanity are dying to be replaced by the written, "Word?" We are trying to replace the lost, aural 'voice' of our bicameral God by the 'Written' Laws enforced on us by our Bicameral "Chambers" for some unknown reason.
