I<\/span> recognize <\/b>that it may be helpful to bring the TetraSeed into more familiar terms by looking at each of its features.<\/p>\n

However, I will start by making an unfamiliar term, familiar: “the archesoma”. “Soma” refers to any living creature with a sense of its condition and a sense of its environment. The term, archesoma, refers to the underpinnings of all living creatures’ sense of existence. It’s based on four universal functions:<\/p>\n

\nATTENDING | REMEMBERING | INTENDING | IMAGINING
\nThe TetraSeed (four-part origin of experience)<\/div>\n

\nWe start with Memory, as I believe it to be the most accessible to you, friendly reader.<\/p>\n

\nMEMORY<\/h3>\n
\nMemory is nothing but the persistence of things. No persistence, no memory. If you can find it, it’s persistent somewhere<\/u> and in some way.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nMemory is the persisting of the impression of an experience after the passing of the experience.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nThat definition applies even to computer memory or memory metal (used in eyeglasses): computer memory retains patterns of ones and zeroes; it is the pattern that it retains. Another medium than silicone wafer circuits could just as easily, and perhaps even better retain a pattern of ones and zeros. The medium doesn’t matter; it’s the pattern.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nMemory metal exhibits similar behavior of pattern-retention: it retains its form, returns to it even when distorted by force. It’s pattern, retained. The behavior of memory metal is a lot like the behavior of humans. Ever have anyone try to make you do what you don’t want to do? or argue you into another opinion of something? You tend to want to “keep your own form”, don’t you.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nDoes that bring it home, for you?<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nMemory is persistence of a pattern of some sort, even a persistence of a pattern of patterns, of movements, the corresponding sensations, patterns of function, patterns of behavior, patterns of relationship, of experience, of habits, of destiny.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nThat leads us to the next Element.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n

\nIMAGINATION<\/b><\/h3>\n
\nImagination is open-ness to being strangely attracted in some direction. Another term for this is, eros.<\/p>\n

Thanks to Walt Disney, imagination has been brought before the public; he pointed to imagination as something alive. He highlighted it.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\nHe was a pioneer of the animation of the imagination in his cartoons and the feature movies released in his lifetime.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nHe set a direction.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nImagination is about direction. “Direction”, is an abstraction because, although the word, direction, usually awakens an intuitive impulse to move “outwardly” ( doesn’t it ), it has no content, in itself, does it? “Outwardly”, in this sense, means, “in some direction other than where you already are”, whether internal\/subjective or external\/objective.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nImagination is an opening outward because it’s always a movement from the known ( memory ) into the unknown. If it isn’t moving outwardly from<\/i> memory, it IS memory, <\/i>not imagination.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nImagination is a pregnant pause. Imagination is like a woman: she may be beckoned by our patient receptivity, primed by our attention, but never yields to our immediate insistence — and then comes unexpectedly. Imagination is like that. Imagination doesn’t come “from”<\/i> us; it comes “to”<\/i> us, to our openness. We may then hold<\/i> it by making the imagining tangible by some creative action, which is to say, persistent. We make the imagining persist, and when we do that, it becomes, Memory.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nAnciently, this feminine personage of the imagination has been given the name, “muse”<\/i>, an inspiring female who arouses great things of a human’s potential, which the person must then bring alive, make tangible, make persist, bring to life. Muse<\/i> and music<\/i>: where do they come from?<\/p>\n

Pregnant Mystery<\/p><\/div>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\nThus does IMAGINATION <\/b><\/span>feed into MEMORY<\/b><\/span>.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nFeel the light go on? That may have been your first feeling of “synergy”, occurring. That feeling of synergy is the appearance of a “strange attractor” in “psychic space”. And what it attracts is . . . . .<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n

\nATTENTION<\/h3>\n
\nAttention locates<\/u> strange attractors (which are all TetraSeeds of experience). Strange Attractors have a “smell”. Attention is like a nose. Yes, a nose, and it sniffs out Strange Attractors, the way a truffle pig sniffs out truffles.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nFollow your nose. Follow your nose. You do. You do. Don’t you?<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nIn fact you can’t help but follow your nose.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nEven if you follow your ear, you end up pointing your nose the same direction and your nose leads the way<\/i>. And if you follow your nose, you really<\/i> follow your nose.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nThings that go in your nose really get attention. Don’t they? Chanel #5, the smell of pork barbeque?  a gnat? We’ll let that be that.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nAttention is a pointer. Attention locates. Always, attention locates.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nWhat does attention locate? anything with a location, in terms of any of the senses.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nAttention is a locator-pointer.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nHowever, attention may be either waveringly or steadily “ON-OBJECT”<\/span>,
\nattention may be narrow and intense <\/div>\n
\nor open and lightweight<\/div>\n
\nor diffused
\nor dissolved<\/div>\n
\nor highly coherent (attention steadily cohering ON-OBJECT<\/b><\/span>)
\nor scattered.<\/p>\n

In “ADD” or “ADHD” attention is scattered.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\nINTENSITY <\/b><\/span>of ATTENTION<\/b> <\/span>is related to INTENSITY<\/b> <\/span>of INTENTION.<\/b><\/span><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nThe primal intention is, activity <\/i>(experienced as existence).<\/i><\/div>\n
\nWhat we call, “being” is really, “becoming”.<\/div>\n
\nNo activity, no existence. Absolute zero.
\nThe Center of the Black Hole, <\/div>\n
\nno communication out or in.<\/b><\/i><\/div>\n
\n
<\/b><\/i><\/div>\n
\nActivity is Existence and Existence is Activity.<\/b><\/i><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nIntense attention yields more detail, remembered
\nand also recognized by memory.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nAttention burns impressions into memory
\naccording to its intensity,<\/div>\n
\nthe more deeply, more densely<\/div>\n
\nthe more intense the attention.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nActivity is existence and only activity is existence.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nATTENTION <\/b><\/span>consolidates MEMORY according to its INTENSITY<\/span><\/b><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nFeel that? another synergy, another strange attractor<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nsniff, sniff, sniff<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n

\nINTENTION<\/h3>\n
\nIntention intends movement, activity, or change.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n(sniff, sniff, sniff)<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nIntention has no momentum<\/b> of its own; that is supplied by memory\/persistence<\/b>.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nIntention has no direction<\/b> of its own, of any kind, until aimed by imagination, imagination perhaps bolstered by memory.<\/div>\n
\n(sometimes not so bolstered by memory, as dreams of the imagination may evaporate as we wake).<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nIntention is the synergetic emergent of <\/div>\n
\n
<\/b><\/span><\/div>\n
\nATTENDING TO, “REMEMBERING IMAGINING”<\/b><\/span>. <\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nTo do all three, simultaneously, spontaneously activates intention.<\/b><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nanother synergy<\/div>\n
\n(sniff, sniff, sniff)<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nYou’ve activated all Four. How do you like it? Want some more?<\/p>\n

I thought you would. <\/p>\n

Now, you know what goes into the TetraSeed transformation procedures: The Four, inner and outer.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\n<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nLook at the diagram. See the colors? They indicate correspondences. Feel how they correspond. They reinforce each other.<\/p>\n

Every feature (e.g., “intending”) connects with every other feature (e.g., “persistence”). Feel how they connect (e.g., “intending persistence”). They add with each other to create familiar kinds of experience and unfamiliar, emergent<\/u>, experiences (to be captured by MEMORY<\/span><\/b>).<\/div>\n
