TV, Alpha and Beta thinking and Suggestible States of Mind

I want to talk to you about your TV. In this post I'm going to post links to the sites that show you what I'm talking about. Scientific studies that show you how you are programmed to accept a point of view or truth that is not your own and why you must abandon your TV as a regular form of entertainment and information to open your mind and become more aware.

Perceptual Diversity?

What in the hell is Perceptual Diversity, and why is Polyphasic Consciousness Necessary for Global Survival?

"development will continue to destroy perceptual diversity because it exports the dominant cognitive process of “developed” nations, i.e. monophasic consciousness. Destroying perceptual diversity, in turn, leads to the destruction of cultural diversity and biocomplexity."

Without Drugs!

We can do it without drugs. I think one thing that a lot of people can get caught up in with altered states of consciousness is that they come from the use of drugs. I can’t say that I do not fall into this habit myself. Most of my writings about altered states are all the drug influenced experiences with altered states that I’ve had.
