I am glad to be here today with you to share my perception of the [[moment]]. What have we got on the table today besides [[illusions]] of [[reality]]?

THOROAH: We have a couple of follow-up [[questions]] from our friend to the south of us who had a question last week about the [[relationship]] with [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sciatica sciatica] to pent up [[anger]], and the response that she got had to do with having a unified [[personality]] as the best medicine, and she says,

"Now I have a couple more questions! The above . .. indicates that [[personality]] [[unification]] is essential to the [[development]] of the individual. Given my fractured [[childhood]] I would not be surprised if this were indeed the case; however, I [[wonder]] how do I now unify my personality so as not to have a misguided [[conscience]]? I do tend to take on the troubles of the world and they do cause me much [[conflict]] and sorrow. I would like to be ‘[[balanced]]’ and I'm hoping Tomas or someone else might have some [[advice]] in this realm."

That's the first part of the [[question]].

PAULO: Yes, we can deal with this, child, but it will take a few [[moments]] for me to gather my [[tools]] for this formidable task. I'm going to [[persist]] in the picture, if you will, of the [[nursery]] for I see here you among the many toddlers who would be [[happy]] in your playpen, who would foster a healthy and [[vigorous]] [[mind]] and [[body]], who would grow into a well [[unified]] [[personality]], yes, and so while I'm here, will you remember from your [[exposure]] to the [[human condition]], realize that young children have a perception that is limited because they themselves are limited and remember too that many times when a child's first [[impression]] seizes his mind, he maintains that impression even throughout a lifetime. It is sometimes [[necessary]] to undergo what we could call [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychic_surgery psychic surgery] in order to let go of that [[concept]] that grasped/clutched that little mind so fiercely so long ago.

So let's say for example a little one who sees something bad happen can take on the sense of [[responsibility]] for it happening as if his very [[presence]] was the [[impetus]] for such an [[act]]. And I ask you, in your reasonable mind, to [[ponder]], "Why do you suppose it is that child mind would think such a thing?" Because it is the only [[reality]] in [[the universe]]! Is it not true that at that age, before you've even learned to [[share]] appropriately, you are singularly interested in having your needs met? Your needs, your [[survival]], your [[comforts]], your [[reaction]] to the universe is all that matters, is all that is. And so many of these [[impressions]] that gain sway with the child mind are frozen there for a lifetime.
