Disneyland of Consciousness


“That what we believe is conscious turns out to be in closer inspection unconscious.” I can see how this can be perceived.  When trickery of the eye in magic occurs, when others are skilled in the art of slide of hand and forming illusions that again trick the vision and mind of the observer to believe, if they did not know any better, that what they just saw or experienced was real. In this day of age we see many illusions throughout our daily lives. Illusions, perceptions and the deceitfulness of the public is what our unconscious is being molded daily. Magazine covers, billboards, tv commercials and all different types of multimedia seem to be conditioning our conscious, subconscious, and ultimately our unconscious. “We can experience this in our dreams as well as when we are awake.”  Consciousness has us believe our own imaginations. Sometimes we want to make our imaginations become real. This is when we are very aware of our actions knowingly injure our own bodies attempting to reach and achieve a perception. Perception can be harmful, deadly even, a self-destructive very conscious action.  

We cannot always be Aware of each and every mechanical movement that happens in and throughout our body.  That would over stimulate our consciousness, just like we are not aware of many stimuli that is around our exterior. In this multitasking lifestyle that most of us live, we could just imagine having to multitask our heart beat, temperature regulation, fluid regulation, breathing and much much more that we need to make us function. The fact that we are not aware of all our internal mechanisms probabliy saves us from forgetting to breath or have our heart beat at the right  time proportion to the amount of oxygen the rest of our body requires.
