Three faces of the human being

    The most simplistic explanation of the psychosis of the human being is this:
1) Primal (sage/crone)
2) Parent (father/mother aka king/queen)
3) Child (squire/maiden aka son/daughter)

The primal is first, existing before birth, knowing all things of the deepest "mysteries".
Parent is developed next because the primal is "forbidden" (deeply rooted in racial memory).
Child is born next as a facade of non-threatening innocence in search of the primal.

These are survival mechanisms, so NO JUDGEMENT. It is also sacred territory involving multiple "deaths"/sheddings of "realities".

It is the parent's job to deny the existence of the primal, deny it's own existence and assert the child as it's true self. The child can venture forth into relationships and exploration of things like religion with an air of "none of this is serious", Because it is being asserted as the "real" personality, however, it is protected by the parent who has access to primal awareness and abilities to assert the child's seriousness, sincerity. Parent and child have "back up" aspects. So, for example, when beliefs expressed "don't stick" and exposure of the inconsistency is imminent, the child wheedles in all sorts of excuses and psychological run-a-round. When those fail, the parent has an excuse for it and an attack against it. When those fail, it gets vicious. Due to the nature of it's existence it perceives it's self a saving angel but it has all the characteristics of a demon.
The child is the undermining of the parent by the primal reinforced by the parent because it "needs" the non-threatening/righteous mask. Thus, parent resents the primal as well as the child. The parent is basically a schizophrenic mess with the best of intentions and it is TENACIOUS.

The parent can't last, being the product of fear and with the purpose of deception, so as we age it comes into it's strength then diminishes as a sense of security in the world is achieved. It's sickness diminishes the body as well as the existence of the primal in it. That is why, unless shed in true "religious" experience such as training in shamanism, etc, all that is left in old age is the child without a parent and no awareness of the primal.........senility, Alzheimer's, etc. MOST who engage in spiritual training to access the primal only shed the child. The parent masquerades as the primal with child-like intentions and may even believe it IS the primal and as deep as it gets because it has access to it's "abilities": psychic senses, intuitiveness, energy manipulation (healing modalities), etc.

Through it all, the primal doesn't much care because it IS eternal, expanding it's understanding of it's own condition with focus and purpose in vessel after vessel, supporting the most viable with "quickenings" until most expanded is reached in each and comes to it's fullness in one at least, for only one is needed in each generation. These become the "god men/women", prophets, "saviors" and such things.........until ultimate fullness is reached in how to bring all human beings into the state of "god man/woman" and the only humans living are "god men/women".

The shedding of the child and parent are necessary to reach our "highest"/fullest potential. At this point in human evolution, it is necessary for survival. Understanding has been reached.
