Vineeto’s Correspondence on the Actual Freedom List

Correspondent No 85

Topics covered

remembering a PCE, Steve Lehar’s radical new theory of mind and brain, motivation

28.3.2006

RESPONDENT: Hello, I’m new to this list.

I need help remembering a PCE.

Richard wrote that he’s helped many people recall at least one PCE? How did he induce this recall? (…)

VINEETO: Welcome to the Actual Freedom mailing list. In order to search where Richard, Peter or I have written about inducing a PCE you type the following phrase into Google –

induce pce site:www.actualfreedom.com.au

You should get about 150 links.

As for the link presented in your second post – http://cns-alumni.bu.edu/~slehar/Lehar.html – Steve Lehar makes it very clear in his writing that his ‘radical new theory of mind and brain’ is based on the premise that –

Steve Lehar – ‘… we cannot be consciously aware of objects beyond the sensory surface. Therefore the world of experience can only be an internal replica of the external world’ http://cns-alumni.bu.edu/~slehar/webstuff/consc1/consc1a.html

With this premise Steve Lehar has a priori excluded himself from ever experiencing or acknowledging having ever experienced this actual world directly, without the interference of his ‘being’ / his ‘self’.

RESPONDENT: It’s a good thing this website and mailing list is up and running, otherwise I would get very lazy with the method. And by the way, Richard and Vineeto, if that guy I gave you his link is correct then couldn’t it be that you are being actual within a virtual reality?

VINEETO: Are you suggesting that I am ‘being actual’ within that-guy-you-gave-his-link’s ‘virtual reality’?

RESPONDENT: And want to know why you do anything at all if you aren’t motivated by the pleasure/pain cycle. How is this body motivated to do anything at all if there is no feeling?

VINEETO: Yes, apart from life’s necessities and from enjoying the delights of being alive I am not motivated to much these days – as you can see from the length of this post.

Live is so simple when one is no longer driven by the instinctual passions.

You may have to look for the motivation to not ‘get very lazy with the method’ more closer to home, possibly by becoming more acutely aware of your own ‘pain/pleasure cycle’ and how to become free from it.
