Path of Least Resistance
I will accept that life is shaped by the physical forces, which I suggest are also life force, and yet living things don’t completely conform behaviorally to the physical forces. They don’t develop strictly along the path of least resistance. Why is that? Will, intention, act of creation? Life is the opposite of entropy. Objects follow…

Emergent Quality of Life
Shall we discuss consciousness for a moment? They say that consciousness is an emergent quality of the function of the brain or nervous system. I will grant them that argument. It’s fairly useful for understanding significant parts of human experience. So if consciousness is an emergent quality of the function of the brain, or whatever…

Measure of Life
To begin the subject of Life Force, some terms need to be defined and agreed upon. Are we in agreement that there is such a thing as life and things that could be called living? And I will be using the term “force” to describe a pattern of action observable in matter. Then, we are…

We should not reject any part of our experience? Not thinking in terms of rejection more than abstaining from rejection itself. When something upsets your stomach you puke, but you don’t stop eating all together. You don’t develop huge elaborate reasons why it is never ok to puke. How it is a mortal sin to…

That women tend and mend rather than fight or flight. Rookeries of birds are established by the females ultimately. The heart of society is present in the female of…

We don’t have just one social body, we have a set. In a sense, they join together like organs to form a body as complex as our own. Though most of our social bodies are like clone bodies with little or no brain. If they have little or no brain, then it’s purely an instinctive…

Psychological Immune Response
Feelings of empathy and antipathy kind of rollercoaster for me. I can’t figure out if it is me being hormonal, or if I’m just frustrated and can’t find a way to change things, like being treated more like a child than a spouse. It’s not just hormonal. There is no such thing as just hormonal. All…

Desire to Reject
Let’s look at the individual. We don’t generally want to subsume ourselves in the social system, just like heart muscle cells don’t normally volunteer for digestion. It’s a constant struggle between socialization and individuality. That is the problem, struggle. It can even lead to the equivalent of the social cancer tumor, something forcing itself into a…

Truth is a reality checking process in the mind. It can operate in a healthy fashion, or get twisted, or can just be totally eschewed for a strictly relativistic artifice that excuses any stance as just what’s in fad of the mental moment.
Could our understanding of consciousness and soul evolution suggest that plants and trees are repositories of ancient wisdom? How might…
