What is Creator’s perspective on the Dunning-Kruger effect? How much can be attributed to subconscious programming, and how much to the simple immaturity of the incarnated human?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Corruption185 views0 answers0 votesA person with Dunning-Kruger might say something like, “… of course, I don’t know. I don’t NEED to know. I have COMMON SENSE.” And then expects their opinion to carry equal (or even greater) weight in a given debate. Can Creator share just how a person comes to think this way?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Corruption189 views0 answers0 votesAnother behavior related to Dunning-Kruger would be a tendency to appeal to some kind of superior credential, even and especially if it is completely unrelated to the given debate at hand. Such a credential would be physical age: “Well young man, I am twenty years your senior, I think I know a thing or two.” Or, “You’re talking to a decorated veteran, show some respect!” Or, “I’ve lived a good life, had a lucrative career, raised three upstanding children, and am a grandparent to boot! I think my opinion should matter!” This tendency to take shelter in some kind of superior, if wholly unrelated and even irrelevant credential, is widespread and sometimes very problematic. What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Corruption187 views0 answers0 votesCreator described the ego in a previous GetWisdom LIVE program as follows: “The ego is a limited vessel, a limited capability that puts the self, first. As such, it is kind of like having a suit of armor that is self-protective. It might be awkward to wear, inconvenient, even drag you down from the sheer weight and inconvenience of suiting up before you make an excursion where you are at risk, but a potential lifesaver if you are attacked and would otherwise be vulnerable and perish. The suit of armor gives you a fighting chance at least. The ego, in the same way, is more like a weapon in being quite focused on your supremacy. In a sense, it is your last refuge to maintain an advantage and hold your ground to stand up to those who would bully you or intimidate, and provide a wherewithal to weather the storm.” The Dunning-Kruger effect appears to be the ego fulfilling this very function in a crude, imprecise, but very forceful and compelling manner. What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Corruption184 views0 answers0 votesCreator has previously discussed five principal selves that make up the human being—the deep subconscious, subconscious, cellular consciousness, primary or conscious self, and the higher self. What about the ego? Can it be, should it be, characterized as a “sixth self?” And if not, why not?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Corruption215 views0 answers0 votesWe have learned that some skills, muscle memory, and other proclivities we call natural talent, can be recorded in the akashic records, and re-introduced into the cellular consciousness of a new body in a new incarnation. This is how natural talent can be carried over from lifetime to lifetime. What about the ego? Is it also recorded in the akashic records and re-introduced in some fashion to a new incarnation? Is it, like karma and physical talent, left behind when one becomes a light being but re acquired upon a new incarnation (so the incarnating soul can essentially pick up where they left off)? Is the ego truly left behind when the departing consciousness enters the light and is it one of the big reasons there is more wisdom and clarity as light beings? Or is the ego of a particular lifetime utterly lost upon transition, and new incarnations start off with an essentially blank ego?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Corruption182 views0 answers0 votesCreator has said that the angels have egos. It would be assumed then that light beings also have egos of some sort. Is there a difference between the ego of a physical incarnation, and the ego of a light being?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Corruption200 views0 answers0 votesThe ego does not appear to be brain-dependent, as lost soul spirits, when encountered by human victims and healers and psychics, seem to display lots of functioning ego characteristics. Can Creator comment on the ego’s reliance or lack of reliance on the physical brain?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Corruption181 views0 answers0 votesAt what age does the ego really take hold in a new incarnation? What can parents and caregivers do to help foster the healthy development of their child’s ego?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Corruption191 views0 answers0 votesOver-inflated egos and the Dunning-Kruger effect seem to represent pressing healing needs for much of humanity. Can Creator share how Empowered Prayer and the Lightworker Healing Protocol are the best tools for bringing about the highest and best form of healing?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Corruption171 views0 answers0 votesIn last week’s show on the ego, Creator had this to say about fear: “Many things will compete and constrain the flow of love. The worst by far, in terms of predominance throughout humanity, is harboring fear. It is fear that is a great barrier and limitation in achieving a vibrational state of being in alignment with the divine … In choosing fear, you are essentially saying ‘no’ to divine love because the two are opposites and incompatible.” Most people are of the impression that the opposite of love is hate, but Creator is saying it is FEAR that is opposite and incompatible with love. Hate is certainly a problem, but most people are not hate filled. They are much, much more fear-filled. Is Creator asserting that fear is the biggest problem sentient beings everywhere have?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Corruption201 views0 answers0 votesIs depression a fear-based and fear-driven emotion? Depression is certainly a form of suffering, but is it also a means by which the being attempts to cope with fear and uncertainty? A depressed person is essentially a risk-averse person, and so the feeling of depression can lead an individual to avoid risky behavior that could lead to even greater suffering or even demise. So, ironically, it confers a measure of protection and safety to the afflicted individual, but at the cost of personal happiness. What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Corruption216 views0 answers0 votesOne word that Creator has not commented on at length is “acclimation.” A walk in soul with a long history of fearlessness, suddenly found itself in a 22 year old body riddled with anxiety, stress, and depression. Creator has shared that the walk-in does not inherit the deep subconscious of the departing individual, but it does appear to inherit the previous inhabitant’s cellular memory. It took 20 years for the feelings of depression, stress, and anxiety to gradually wither and cease altogether. During the entire time, the walk-in internally labeled these emotions illegitimate and simply ignored them and struggled to live life, often in complete opposition to them. Why did it take 20 years, and what lessons can be learned from this walk-in’s experience?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Corruption233 views0 answers0 votesDid the above walk-in soul choose the walk-in incarnation experience over a natural birth in order to remind itself what fear, anxiety, and stress actually felt like again, as one of the motives? When one becomes fearless (relatively so) it can be very difficult to empathize with the overwhelming majority of humanity who deal with such emotions almost continuously. What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Corruption279 views0 answers0 votesDivine healing is certainly one way to clean up the traumatic energy in the akashic records that alarms and triggers the deep subconscious that is always looking for threats and hazards. But isn’t that a kind of an “end-around” to the karmic design of the system? It certainly seems like an intervention into a process and dynamic that should normally be more self-maintaining and automatic. Does suffering “bravely borne” slowly bleed away some of this built-up trauma recorded in the akashic record? Like a drip, drip, drip that eventually empties the pool if persisted long enough?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Corruption183 views0 answers0 votes
