I guess many of you have not taken the few minutes to make the 50 YES/ NO decisions that could teach you a lot.
Not that this could possibly reveal if you are possibly a transsexual in disguise but to learn something on how inadequate our left brain approach is to most essential questions.
Left brain is valuable to store telephone numbers and names and to know what is right and left (so if you always had a problem with that – its actually a good sign that you are not completely a slave of your left brain)
However to determine if you or your client is male or female, successful or unsuccessful, has autism or not, is pregnant or not, if he has a physical problem or an informational problem – this cannot and should not be decided by the left brain but by an alternation process between right and left hemisphere.
In the ancient yogic tradition, language is said to be the source of delusion – where the root cause ofdelusion is “objectification” of the world and its phenomena versus feeling, seeing, experiencing,and knowing the world as a whole. When our minds assign names and definitions to phenomena weturn those phenomena into objects, lifting them out of the natural panorama in which they exist, ulti-mately creating a disintegrated world view, this understanding of the cosmos as a set of objects takingus farther and farther away from what the ancients considered the true reality
What I am giving you here, is an insight how you can over-come this ancient dilemma, without becoming a recluse and believing/ hoping/ asserting that the mind is an obstacle to experiencing the world in its totality – no it is not but a half-brain approach to the world is. When we learn how to alternate between Analysis and Synthesis “We will see the world as for the very first time”
I am spending this time on something that most have thought to be self-evident. Whether someone is male or female you probably thought (copied from our cultural believe) is a questions of hormone levels and physical organs. As long as your hormone level – physical organ combination fits that of the majority you feel “YOU KNOW” but (as always) the feeling or certainty of knowing is a form of inertia that eventually in old age has to be reset by death.
Only if “hormone level – physical organ combination” do not fit that of the majority we and particularly those for whom this is the case have a problem to decide/ define/ know what/ who they are. We think and are trained to believe that this is a bad thing as our culture has programmed us to search/ prefer/ value certainty above un-certainty.
What I want to show you with this little exercise is that even for all of those for whom “hormone level – physical organ combination” DO FIT that of the majority it is not appropriate to define yourself as categorical MALE or FEMALE because if you do this many of you will have areas where your personal attributes do not match the image of male or female of the majority and thus will lead to conflicts with your definition (illusion) that eventually if unobserved make you sick or better will need sickness to come in to unlock this particular stagnation.
Putting people in a box, what we use to call diagnosing, is the most dangerous, iatrogenic disease of all and still does not even show in the list of iatrogenic disease : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iatrogenesis
In the United States, figures suggest estimated iatrogenic deaths per year of[1]:
- 12,000 due to unnecessary surgery
- 7,000 due to medication errors in hospitals
- 20,000 due to other errors in hospitals
- 80,000 due to infections in hospitals
- 106,000 due to non-error, negative effects of drugs
We do not yet count the short/long term effects of diseases that only set in after a diagnosis (right or wrong does not matter) was made.
Our cultural addiction to specify and give labels to complex combinations of attributes is so brutal and unquestioned part of our education that we think it useful or even necessary and certainly not potentially harmful, if we lack any insight to label a child with PDD-NOS “Pervasive Developmental Disorder Not Otherwise Specified “ see http://www.informationenergymedicine-academy.com/autism-aspberger-syndrome/
If you feel confused/ uncertain/ disoriented after all that – welcome to a better health – you are younger as a result – curious and wondering again – open to learn things in a new way and not afraid to restart.
To show you that the 50 questions I proposed in the last post on the male-female question was only a superficial first step at a closer look, these 50 questions have now been reformulated in 2 different modes – take the time to circle in each row – either the YES or the NO and make a choice – this is good use of the left brain – although you want to throw the whole thing out of the window – as deep down something tells you that will shake your established window to the world.
Then add up in each column of Test A and B the all the YES or NO you circled and multiply it by 2. The number in the X column is your female percentage and the number in column Y your male percentage according to test A or B respectively – what this means I will discuss in the next weeks post ( and please don’t be afraid to comment ) Lene do you still think “You learned enough about what it means to be male or female from reading magazines and new age books ?

OK, Kiran challenges me to open my mouth again. Of cause, we can get information from books and internet, but true learning still comes through getting blisters and bruises on your own skin.
For the reason “God only knows” the human beings are “split”: into guys and gals. Less important what you look like below your waist, but how masculine and feminine energies play in your body. Why? – At least, for the reason of having healthy relationships with your partner with balanced aspects of male-female roles in your union. Especially, if you want to sustain a playful, passionate attraction to each other, only love would not be enough. You must polarize your union (this subject is too vast and complicated to discuss here).
I’m very curious what opinion Kiran has about “yes” and “no” and how they are related to sex, because to me, questions are very slightly related to my gender but mostly to who I am. And most questions have no answers at all. Here are some of them (for the sake of example and not get you loaded with my crap):
And so on…
Wish you all enjoy being in your own skin and not making stories (definitions) about who you are. Lana.
Kiran’s comment :
well to probably everyone but yourself it is obvious that you have more than 50% male – and if you would not make so much noise with your left brain – just answer YES or NO – you would see this and it would make you understand what kind or relationships never will work for you – but most people today are trained to make things so complicated that they themselves do not see the basics anymore
As at all times – but more today then ever – people imagine they are creating the person they want to be themselves – but if you travel as much as I do you can see that there are american woman programs, Brazilian woman programs, German woman programs – and of course all of them think they created themselves.
exercises like this questionnaire are a way to get to know yourself – not to define yourself – and this way you can understand how CoRe works when it comes up with – Penis problem – for Lana
