It’s like arguing with a baby or a small child (which is where all the misinterpretations arise from, not due to anyone’s fault) who doesn’t yet have the words, the language, the reasoning to understand. You simply can’t get through to it.
What you’ve done, as a result, is abandon that child yourself, through your rationalizing, your attempts at persuasion, which are only some of the “adult” manipulations that we unconsciously use.
So, what we do is override our inner child, suppress its feelings and world view, and believe that it belongs to the past; doesn’t exist now. We learn very quickly how to logicalize with life, manipulate others (like children must to survive), as we do to our self.
It’s actually much more complex than this brief description, which only points to a direction. It also takes very interesting turnings in each individual as each of us develop our very own tactics, which must be acknowledged and addressed.
The most obvious effect (well, maybe not so obvious) is that there is no inner dialogue, no internal equitable relationship, there is no inner live conversation going on.
The parts that people usually recognize inside them (when they do) are the inner judge, the inner prosecutor, the inner advocate, the jury (as society). More often, the inner court rooms and multiple cases staged with false information (as all cases are) remain invisible, undetected by the individual or in worse cases justified as righteousness.
This is where we are as a collective, with this common mindset losing ground by the day!
