PHYSICAL AND ABSTRACT WALLS

This page is still being developed. I wanted a special page to develop ideas on modern human privacy and its relationship to individuality.

Parent Page : Display Rituals

Modern house walls have doors which lock, and we secure our territory, posessions and physical safety with laws.

Humans try to find security and safety by building physical and abstract walls and weapons.

I'm curious about if there are any deeper connections in the idea of walls, privacy, and my own space. This is 'my own space' to develop ideas. At present it hardly seems important for the main message on this site.

I'm puzzled – maybe it's something to do with crowded over-population. It's only really evident in the Western world. Indians and Mexicans often still live and sleep all together in a family room.

But in 'first world' countries ideally every child has their own room. It's felt as necessary for the development of the individual.

In my own room i dont need to make any display, i feel safe, i can also prepare and practice for the next display...

Security in jobs or relationships, often leads to feelings of being in a prison.

Moments of being in love, feeling deeply happy, alive, and safe, often develop into security with feelings of restriction or boredom.

To avoid stagnation we have to get a thrill by pushing boundaries, breaking rules – having affairs – sky diving – going out of the comfort zone, even breaking the law, anything to make you feel alive.

And something like this was obviously going to happen, ever since we started exclusively focusing.

In a life lived by focusing, being safe and feeling alive don't go together.

All other animals use their panaral senses. The panaral experience is the natural method of feeling and actually being safe and alive at the same time.
