Considerations

Normally what thinks,
the Thinking-I, the will, the Ego, the Identities are considered to control what is remembered, what is retrieved from the memory, when, where and why. If one fails in the ability to recall what is desired or necessary in any given instance, it is considered to be a flaw of memory.

The premise here is that the memory can have a personality of its own, controlling what the individual thinks, says and does, by what can be remembered in any given particular instance. The memory can be thought of as an individual in and of itself, that decides much of what one thinks, says and does. One can only think and act in accordance with what one can remember. Thus if the memory were considered as a personality in and of itself, by its control of the information that the Thinking-I has access too, it would be capable of controlling on its own, every aspect of the individual.

If this were an intentional technique and a valid means of utilizing the memory, this would be called the Memory Dictate. The primary purpose of the Memory Dictate would be to allow the unconscious and possibly other facets, such as intuition, the muse, and particularly the Spirit Apotheosis or Soul, to regulate the consciousness of the individual, to some greater or lesser degree.

The theory here is that other dimensional agents possess a greater context of consciousness, understanding and possibly objectives, which transcend the single this-world physical life span, than does the limitations of the Thinking-I and singular sensory awareness.

The theory and method suggested here, is by means of processes of memory connectivity, and a means of blocking specific memories in specific instances, and promotion of connectivity in other instances, to move thinking along on the right course, as considered best by higher mind or other dimensional agents.

If the mind is allowed to be free flowing, allowed to think anything spontaneously, to meander from association to association, with periodic concentration, the mind will not overwork itself and maintain a freshness.

If one is in a concentrative state such as when writing much of the time, a means to the mind's regulation, to give it rest and prevent overwork, would be to pause it periodically by a lack of memory connectivity. This means the inability to remember or to forget what one was thinking or saying, and come back to present external reality. Take a look round, a restful blank space. Located in um ? Well hello again reality, until I again get in the think. It's a loop in and out.

The advantage of delayed memory connectivity is that the other dimensional Apotheosis would choose the proper meditative time slots for connectivity as they occur in active reality. Whereas pre-set meditative sessions would be disconnected from the spontaneous moment of active involvement. Instant and automatic memory may tend to suppress access to the Unconscious and Apotheosis.

The absence of memory shuts down the mind to zero, like a stop-light. One comes back to reality, takes a look round, notices what is there, indulges in the sensual delight of the moment, before the light goes green again and one is mentally off to the races. This form of memory regulation gives continuous brief resting periods, keeping it fresh and prevents overload.

And so forth it is suggested that the inability of memory connection in specific instances, may allow other dimensional intervention and influence. Thus it is not so much a poor memory but rather the timing of connectivity, or the length of time it might take the memory to recall a specific, such as the name of a movie actor, a particular event or a bit of gossip, maybe one should keep to themselves in any case.

An analogy from a Sherlock Holmes story called 'A Study in Scarlet'. The brain is like a workshop. One is careful what lumber one throws into it, meaning what is remembered. If one saves every scrap one comes across, there would be no room to even get in. Holmes is selective as to what he remembers and what is there, is kept in perfect order, so he knows where to find all. The Holmes psychology here is not to learn knowledge not useful to one's pursuits. Only knowledge that may be useful.

In the search for knowledge one begins with questions. The object here is to discover what the questions are, and then to relate anything one comes across in one's normal course of the day, to any given problem, if it should apply. However the questions can be manifold with some identified just lately, some old and some many years old and forgotten.

It would be quite impractical to keep all these many processes in the conscious mind, which as suggested above in the Sherlock Holmes analogy, the conscious mind would become so cluttered as to prevent one from entering.

These sorts of processes might be left to the Unconscious, which of its own accord works on and works out many problems. One may recognize this vaguely in dreams. Access to the unconscious is like going through all the junk, in the seldom visited warehouse. The Apotheosis is like a warehouse worker who may send what is needed up on the elevator uncalled for, but which might be just what one is looking for.

A further facility of learning processes is the concept of the Idiot-Savant. The Idiot-Savant is a double Identity, one as moron and the other as genius; two roles which balance each others weaknesses. The genius role cannot or should not, by it's very definition be dumb, and the idiot by definition cannot or should not be all that smart. The purpose of the Idiot is to create experience that the Savant by definition of the role would prohibit itself. The purpose of the Savant is a repository for knowledge that is derived from the fumblings of the Idiot.

The Idiot tries things the Savant is too intelligent to attempt, and thus discovers things that were not thought possible. The Idiot represents the ordinary individual and the mentality of which they may approach the world. The Idiot does things over and over again differently, because it is forgotten how it was done before, and each time and from which something new may be learned. The Idiot is something akin to the character of the fool or ombudsman.

The Savant is the director doing the logical analysis of what is learned. The Savant decides what roles the Idiot should play in reference to context of knowledge achievement. The Savant comes to realize the similarities, connections, correspondences and parallels between all the different areas of experience, and becomes interested in everything. The Idiot is a means to see the world as continually fresh.
