2D Obsession?
We clunk around in body-armor of habitually tensed muscles because of chronic defense reactions. Other muscles have to compensate for that, greatly hampering fluid performance. We are masters at narrow focusing our attention away from thoughts, feelings, memories of the past.
When they do come up, we try to repress them again automatically and often unconsciously. If that does not work anymore, we look for professional help.
The overuse of 2D Object-Attention got us into our current stress-related problems. We need to master how the brain functions and its connection to other aspects of our human physiology: Not by forcing it to our will but more through opening to experience and intuitive knowing & understanding.
As a youngster, did you learn to avoid feeling painful emotional-experiences by deploying a 2D Object-Attention beam of energy? If so, 2D Object-Attention is an emergency mode that magnifies our perception of pain. We tamp it down by flexing muscles and turning the beam away.
By using a 2D Object-Attention beam, we not only avoid unpleasant experiences but pleasant ones as well. It leads to mental separateness from everything and the experience of nothing instead. This is the deepest meaning of nihilism: an experience of profound despair and meaninglessness.
