In earlier ages, back in the ages, humans learned how to survive, connect for survival, and live by survival for the fittest. They fought in the wilderness, hunted for their food, and stored whatever could be stored for times of starvation, danger, and lack of harvest, rain, or storms when times allowed for the primitive brain and mammalian brain to be dominant through primary instinct as hunter-gatherers. They fought for the moment of survival against tribes and wildlife. Their main goal back then was food, shelter, and reproduction. Many things were discovered by accident when the need aroused. Therefore, the central perception of life was life happened to me, and they had to fight back using the fight/flight response. Having a safe environment was not in place; life was dangerous, and they had to survive, fight, and conquer the challenges with whatever tools existed back then. The primitive life is run by the primitive man. The animal kingdom, hyperarousal, hypervigilant, and adaptation to threats. Primitive man passed their DNA composition across generations, making the fear response inherited within human physiology and neurology. The mechanisms of survival didn't fade. Groups were divided into predators and victims, both extreme sides of the living equation. Rulers and followers, cunning and naive, wicked and pure, were the main aspects of differentiation among the kingdom of humans, taking the characteristics of animal personalities. The aggressor, weak, violent, and naive are some of the characteristics of adjectives used to describe animal behavior and passed to be the description of humans. Therefore, why all this heaviness in life?
The more the human remains in the animal kingdom behavior, the more survival for the fittest reigns the phenomenon of life. The yelling, the screaming, the violent actions against others, the depletion of life within those who do not align with the animal behaviors in the form of a human, the battle between the hunger for power, the sense of increased sense of aggression, and harm to control the life of those who don't align with the animal kingdom in the form of humans, the centuries, and decades kept the patterns alive within everyone remains in the reptilian, mammalian brain following the desires of their flesh to control the weak and the unfit.
Another question arose within the evolution of the human kingdom when industrialization took place: What man-made evolution called the world of wealth and power determined another camouflage of the animal kingdom in the form of humans. It happened at individual and group levels. The child comes to the world seeking their place. They grow up losing their place, and challenges distort their self-identity and self-image. The inherited fear conditioning response gets activated with an accumulation of present experiences fixed around helplessness, hopelessness, intimidation, and loss of conscious awareness to navigate their environment. They become the victims of each predator and understand their weaknesses and circumstances. The interplay of emotional regulation is driven by fear from the victim and aggression by anger from the predator. The dynamic affects the primary emotions negatively, resulting in an ongoing state of stress and collective trauma.
The inner sense of the reptilian and mammalian brain haven't progressed to the state of the human-human brain. The perception of an unsafe place and the perception of prolonged stress led to the make-up of self-fallacy when the victim brought all the blame onto themselves for being the reason the predator attacked them or caused harm to them. The shame and guilt got internalized, allowing self-rejection, isolation, avoidance, and the common saying," This happened because of me. If I wasn't there, this wouldn't happen; I could not figure anything out or solve any problem as Iam the problem." The more the negative inner voice grew, the more the predator was successful in their plan to keep the constant state of self-blame, rejection, and conflicting thoughts by the victim. Imagine this vicious loop guiding each decision the victim takes in each step of their lives, walking with the mindset that they are helpless, hopeless, and can not do anything on their own. Thus, it gives a free invitation for more predators to walk into their lives, more co-dependency, and more destruction of the self and the existence of the human being. Still, the predator acts from the animal brain, taking the form of a human.
Modern life luxury invites the animal brain to disguise itself in fine clothes, accessories, and a high-end lifestyle, which is tempting to the vulnerable who become so dependent on whoever walks their way. Their sense of self diminished. The cycle repeats itself from one generation into the other, driven by primary emotions mixed with complex emotions like envy and jealousy, greed, love, hate, or even the construct of racial discrimination, which is culturally embedded and reflected in opinions, decisions, and grouping. The complexity of human dynamics driven by the animal brain increased the suffering among the young and the old. The conflict and the contradiction shaped the ambiguity of the essence of self and the dignity of human life. Treating humans like herds of animals have no voice or choice and are enslaved to the power of the animal brain, aggression, violence, hate, envy, jealousy, greed, and overconsumption of the human soul, depleting the integrity of human life, and brings sadness to those who witness or observe the complexity in social dynome.
The elevation of the human-human brain is kept by a few who consider themselves out of this world and seek power and control for the sake of power and control to satisfy their animal brain desires and antisocial behaviors against human beings. When it was once said, "humans are created in the image of GOD.' that sums up many things; even with such heaviness in human behaviors against one another, GOD is reassuring that there is something good. However, it is like a drop of salt; they are few, yet their impact is noticed and felt. The elevation of the human brain requires the presence of a heightened sense of conscious awareness, attention, and understanding of why the world is made this way. The burden is heavy, and the vulnerable are the ones who suffer, struggle, and fall victim in the hands of those who are activated by the animal brain. It is a complex mission to identify the vulnerable, empower them, and release them back to the world where they were once hurt and harmed when their sense of safety and trust is fragmented. It is difficult to restore trust when behaviors mimic each other when you do not know whether the person in front of you, next to you, or around you is authentic or a predator in disguise. Trauma changes the neurocircuits and the perception of the world. It passes from one generation to the other, forming another paradigm about the animal- brain, the human- brain, and the rue of survival of the fittest.... it is a loop within a world that has not been built on God's word.
