RE: Über halbe Sachen | About half things

in Deutsch Unplugged4 days ago

"Do not like," in my view, is a mental perception, not just one aspect of perceiving reality, but one of the most essential attributes of life itself. Even for understanding what one likes and dislikes. As a rule, over time, negative perceptions are perceived as external impetuses for the individual's inner development. What doesn't kill us makes us stronger.

This is some kind of evolutionary view, it seems to me.
So, liking or disliking may be something I 'perceive' even before I check WHAT I perceive: I do not like a sound (and THEN qualify it as the sound of an enemy), I do not like a smell (and THEN regard the smelling thing to be rotten).
This means: whilst I'm listening or smelling, not before it and not after it, I like or dislike the perception.
Is this the way you are speaking of?

There's a first impression, and then there's a considered opinion about the sensation. Pain is perceived as an alarm signal and is extremely unpleasant. For example, if we have a toothache, we perceive external intervention through pain—we go to the dentist for treatment—and experience a euphoric sensation of the pain's end as the source of the unpleasant sensations. Throughout the process, we acquire certain knowledge in the form of a chain of sensations and store them in the subconscious, unconsciously and consciously, gaining new insights into reality that sometimes emerge through associative circumstances we encounter in everyday life. Understanding the world and ourselves in the world is sometimes painful or delightful, but we continue to use our own patterns of relating to reality, expecting certain sensations and outcomes in our decisions. When we sit down to drink tea, we expect a pleasant tartness and heat, but we don't consider that the ceiling could collapse on us during our tea party. In this case, reflexes of aversion to tea arise, associatively linked to the unpleasant surprise of a delayed reflexive reaction. Similar things are observed in birth trauma—a certain pattern of behavior that defies logical definition. Our subconscious is a vast abyss, filled with everything. But by accumulating our experiences, whether positive or negative, we become who we are, each with our own unique individuality. This explains our perception of the world, based on our accumulated experience. A sound may be pleasant if we've heard something similar before and found it pleasant, or unpleasant if negative associations surface.

When we sit down to drink tea, we expect a pleasant tartness and heat, but we don't consider that the ceiling could collapse on us during our tea party.

For a moment, let's assume: we DO consider that a sudden event could destroy our lives or kill us completely.

What would be the consequences of such considering?

Normally, we use to consider the ongoing of our lives, i.e. we search to gain friends and try to get the money for housing, and clothing, and eating .

Now, if we consider our lives to end very soon, what impact would this have on us? Could we dismiss all sorrows about the next day? Could we get free in a deep sense? Could we drink our tea in such a freedom? Or would it occur that we jump on our feet and - instead of drinking tea - dance to the sound of our singing?

The thing is, everyone reacts differently. Thinking about tomorrow while living today just doesn't cut it. The same goes for the past, it's gone. We are today, now. If you want to jump up, you can; if you want to scream, you're welcome, many options are available. Perhaps the tinsel of social politeness is superfluous in such a situation )))). Panic is also possible—the worst case scenario, and practically uncontrollable, based on a damaged nervous system (birth trauma, stress, depression, etc.), meaning it can come uncontrollably. Can we find freedom? Yes. And not necessarily in a critical situation, it's enough to turn off all fears. But there's a downside here, - without survival reflexes, fears act as warnings, it's quite easy to foolishly cross the line, and that's wrong. Therefore, chasing freedom in the matrix of reality EARTH in this sector of space is quite illusory. ))) All that's left is to drink tea and enjoy life as much as possible, and you can sing between sips.))))
By the way, I'll go make some tea)))
