There's an interesting theory of consciousness known as the transmission process theory.
And the idea is that your brain is like a radio.
It doesn't create consciousness.
It receives it.
Like a radio receives a signal.
But you can think of there being the signal and the noise.
And our brains,
If you consider it as a radio.
They often tune in mainly to the noise.
You could think of that as like some station that only plays commercials,
Just commercials all day long,
24-7,
Music-free radio,
All commercials of the thinking mind,
Past,
Future,
Self-referential,
Self-oriented,
Judgmental,
Fear-based,
Desire,
Everything that is not just here.
And then there is the signal.
The signal.
These practices that we do here,
Maybe meditation.
Things like that I think are ways of tuning in to the signal that's just really easy to forget or overlook but when you tune into it He can't describe it.
You can't feel it.
So how do you tune into the signal?
Maybe you just noticed that you might be tuned in to the noise.
And then the signal is always here.
If you can remember.
To tune back in.
