Suppose you are a person in the second, emotional phase of consciousness. For you the first, instinctual phase of consciousness is real: you have been there. So is the emotional phase: you are there. But all higher phases of consciousness are unreal, do not exist, and are unimaginable, because you have not yet experienced them. To you talking about them makes no sense.

Let’s look at an example, the statement that the free market system is superior to socialism. This is a statement a person in the third, rational phase of consciousness may make. To someone in the second phase of consciousness such a statement is emotionally unacceptable and dismissed out of hand. It is not just untrue, it is appalling. Only people who are in transition from the emotional, second phase to the third, rational phase, may find debating the point meaningful. And only to people who are well established in rational, third phase consciousness does the statement become worth considering and, ultimately, factually true.

Here is another example: “A higher form of consciousness than your own exists.” Obviously this statement is nonsense for people in the first three phases of consciousness. For them higher forms of consciousness then their own do not exist.

This, generally, is why my publications are of little interest to people who are in the first three phases of consciousness. For those I have only one message: Stop reading and spend your time on getting to know yourself better first. If you are in the first phase of consciousness, this means getting to know your instincts better until you learn that they often mislead you. In the second phase it means getting to know your emotions better until you learn that they frequently mislead you too. And similarly, in the third, rational phase of consciousness, it means getting to know the objective world better until you learn that it too can mislead you.

But if you find yourself in or past the transition from third phase, rational to forth phase, intuitive consciousness, read on. You may find some of what follows interesting.
