Stages of ENLIGHTENED RAPTURE - A Process of Conscious Evolution

1st Stage of Enlightenment
I AM

The 1st Enlightenment in the budding human consciousness
took place somewhere between 8m B.C.E. and 2.5 m B.C.E.
that is when enough neuron connections where made
between the right and left sides of the developing primate cortex
as it met and mastered the challenges of survival in an ever changing environment
It is when our first hominid ancestor became consciously aware
of a separation between the self
and its umbilical connection to the rest of Mother Nature

for the very first time
in three billion years of cellular evolution
a space dynamic
devoid of time measurement
was consciously experienced between the self
and surrounding environment
a light flashed in the mind
and the 1st human thought was born

I am here
That is there

this first stage of enlightened self-awareness
flushed rapturously throught every cell of the hominid psyche
imprinted the DNA with this higher state of consciousness
and passed it on to succeeding generations

This same primitive1st moment of Enlightened self awareness
as an independent self
separate from the mother
is re-experienced in the psyche of every modern infant
during the weaning process

The enlightenment takes place at around three years of age
when
once again
there are enough neurons connections in the developing infant cortex
for the intuitive sense of self to be transmitted from the right brain
for experiential analysis in the left brain

This first conscious communication between the two brains
creates a dimly lit super-natural phantom ego
which begins to haunt and gradually possess the budding psyche
moving the baby/hominid mind from reference to self in the 3rd person
to self reference in the 1st

instead of
"baby want"
it is now
"I want"

The birth of the baby Ego observes itself as a separate entity from the mother
and from then onwards weans itself from total dependance
and becomes an independent
I am

2nd Stage of Enlightenment
Sharing Ethic

In order for the ego to continue to mature
beyond a purely selfish-centered I 
and encompass a group sharing consciousness of  
We 
a 2nd Enlightenment of consciousness had to be experienced
and imprinted in the DNA of every human

The vast period of the Stone Age
beginning some 2.5 million years ago
and lasting for 99,000 generations
surviving via family group cooperation
in a hunter/gatherer milieu
trained the basic primate psyche
to not to feed independently
and grab all the bananas


as reward
of group sharing
not only increase the challenge of  survival
but also consolidate and enlarge the personal ego
by enlightening consciousness
to a higher state of personal self esteem
that comes from the gratitude of others
in the act of meticulously sharing the spoils of the hunt

The sharing dynamic
of daily hunting and gathering
consolidated the space dynamic
within the boundaries of the family hunting territory

the daily fortunes of the hunt
added a dynamic of Time consciousness
focused on the Here and Now

The 2nd Enlightened Rapture
flushed through the psyche
and imprinted he DNA with the sharing ethic
an handed down that survival attribute
to succeeding generations
