3 Safe Places in a Troubled World

Within Nazi concentration camps there [was a] definite command – sometimes overt, sometimes implicit – “Don’t dare to notice!”  The message was that inmates had better not “see,” that is, recognize and respond to, the vicious killings and other forms of mistreatment taking place around them, since any such recognition suggested a form of resistance and a reassertion of forbidden pre-camp ethical standards.  Similarly, all survivors of extreme death immersions experience the inner command “Don’t dare to feel.” Robert Jay Lifton, Death in Life page 501.

There are three places in our troubled world where we can feel safe as we fulfil the inner and outer commands “Don’t dare to notice!” and “Don’t dare to feel”.

The Persecutor

The first place to feel safe is to be one of the villains. 

The projection of feelings and beliefs such as terror, grief, loss, guilt and shame onto others is the proven method of remaining oblivious to what we unconsciously believe about ourselves. 

In the language of psychology this behaviour is called transference.  Feelings and beliefs we can’t acknowledge are transferred onto others. 

As a doctor we give harmful treatment based on no scientific evidence. 

We prescribe chemotherapy when the contribution to 5-year survival in adults is just 2.1% in the USA.

As a politician we vote to pollute drinking water with a known neurotoxin.

As a journalist we decry misinformation and work to put out the accepted single source of truth.

As a teacher we teach young children about trans-gender.

Of all the roles available to us the one of persecutor is the most appealing. 

Not only is our job likely to pay better but the transference of unacknowledged internal pain onto others acts as a second padlock on the cupboard of the unconscious.

If you are good at the perpetuation of human suffering you may receive accolades such as becoming a dame or being knighted for your efforts.

The Victim

But transference is not used just by those playing the role of persecutor. 

Not everyone has the same opportunity to cause widespread pain. 

Instead the vast majority of men and women accept the role of victim as their favoured safe option.

Obesity, diabetes, cancer, auto-immune disease, are a few of the chronic conditions now at pandemic proportions.

As Dr Jenny Goodman points out in Staying Alive in Toxic Times the human body is literally crumbling under the toxic overload from synthetic chemicals in our work environment, medications, food and water.  The problem is not helped by weapons grade frequency technology, otherwise known as 5G.

As a victim the problem is still out there.

The toxic overload is something that is happening to us.

We can’t help it if they spray the strawberries we eat.

It’s not our fault there is fluoride in the water.

We can’t help it if we follow government mandates to keep our jobs. 

We are as relentless in our victimhood as are the persecutors perpetuating the horrific crimes we experience. 

Both of us are driven by the inner and outer commands “Don’t dare to notice!” and “Don’t dare to feel,” meaning don’t dare to notice or feel the feeling/beliefs in the cupboard of the unconscious that compulsively control our lives.

The Rescuer

The third role that keeps us safe from having to notice or having to feel is that of the rescuer.

Like the persecutor and the victim the heroic champion of human freedom and exposer of the crimes against humanity still believes the problem is out there. 

“Don’t dare to notice!” is still our mantra.

Transference is still at work. 

Just like the global elite we work selflessly to expose, we remain blissfully ignorant of the source of the suffering – we never look at our own unconscious beliefs.

For the rescuer there is always another horror to expose, another tragedy perpetuated by corporate, governmental and Deep State criminals. 

There has to be. 

Like the persecutor and victim, the rescuer can never allow the transference to slip. 

No glimpse of the unconscious feeling/beliefs must ever been seen. 

Don’t dare notice what you unconsciously believe about yourself.

Don’t dare feel any of these hidden feeling/beliefs.

So everybody rushes around acting the roles of persecutor, victim or rescuer to avoid taking a look at what we unconsciously believe about ourselves.

This is ironic as it is precisely because we choose not to acknowledge these beliefs that gives them the power to express themselves as the suffering we experience in the world.

By keeping the feeling/beliefs in the cupboard of the unconscious we compulsively create a trouble-filled experience for ourselves and others.

In other words, we find that the roles we play are anything but safe. 

On the contrary they are the source of constant danger.

This is crazy because, as I point out in the Troubles Away program none of the feeling/beliefs in the cupboard of the unconscious are true!

We are running from a pack of lies!

It is fear of what we may find, rather than what is actually in the unconscious mind that keeps us manufacturing the concentration camp scenario in the world.

In whatever role we play we are all perpetuating suffering.

Given the seeming iron grip these roles appear to have over our lives it may surprise you to learn clearing the lies we are running from is not difficult. 

In fact as you discover in the Troubles Away program its child’s play.

Enjoy.
