What Do Kangaroos Know About Hypnosis?
This is when you’ve got a few vague words, and you aren’t sure what they mean.
One of the specific patterns is called the “lack of referential index.”
Usually this involves the playful use of pronouns. A pronoun (he, she, they) is usually used after a proper noun is used (Bob, My Uncle, The Purple Kangaroo With a Penguin in his Pouch.)
For example, if I say, “The kangaroo looked at me and then he said, “dude!”
It’s clear that the “he” refers to the kangaroo.
But what if I said this:
“I was fishing with my brother, his friend, and this kangaroo. Then he looked at me and told me that learning hypnosis is pretty easy.”
In this case the, “he” is unclear.
Is it my brother? His friend? The kangaroo?
But while you’re brain is trying to figure out which “he” said “learning hypnosis is easy” you keep focusing on the “learning hypnosis is easy.” Which means you’ll start to believe that it’s true.
This is how you can leverage an idea by using the “lack of referential index pattern.”
Here’s another way, but on a broader, more “meta” scale.
What is meant by the “super conscious brain?”
Is it the “collective unconscious” that Jung referred to, which is basically a whole bunch of different and unconnected unconscious minds, that are all very similar?
Or is it the Huna style, which is this one brain in the sky (or in some other dimension) that we are all plugged into?
Or is it really just one big brain that we aren’t just plugged into, but are all manifestations of?
Luckily, it doesn’t matter. Just like the “he said learning hypnosis is easy” sentence, the real “meat” of the sentence is not who the particular “he” is, but the idea that learning hypnosis is easy.
And your own personal belief on the exact nature of the Super Conscious (the three of the proposed definitions above or your own) doesn’t really matter.
What matters is that you realize that YOU are much more than YOU. Whether you believe that means your raw potential as a biological human entity, or your metaphysical and infinite “being-ness” as connected to the Super Conscious.
So long as you make it a point, an intention, a goal, a daily practice, of tapping into that Super Conscious, whatever and however you believe it to be.
How do you do that?
Well, it’s not on TV. It’s not on your iPhone. It’s not down at the mall. (Well it is, but access is kind of difficult!)
The easiest access, which you already know, is through your own inner mind. Deep within contemplation, waiting between the thoughts you are always thinking.
