Circuit Six
VI. THE NEUROELECTRIC CIRCUIT.
The sixth brain consists of the nervous system becoming aware of
itself apart from imprinted
gravitational reality-maps (circuits I-IV) and even apart from body-rapture (circuit V).
Count Korzybski, the semanticist, called this state "consciousness of
abstracting." Dr. John Lilly calls it
"metaprogramming," i.e., awareness of programming one's programming. This
Einsteinian, relativistic contelligence (consciousness- intelligence) recognizes, for
instance, that the Euclidean, Newtonian
and Aristolelian reality-maps are just three among billions of possible programs or models
for experience. I turned this circuit on with Peyote, LSD and Crowley's "magick"
metaprograms.
This level of brain-functioning seems to have been reported first around 500 B.C. among
various "occult" groups connected by the Silk Route (Rome-North India). It is so
far beyond the terrestrial
tunnel-realities that those who have achieved it can barely communicate about it to
ordinary humanity (circuits I-IV) and can hardly be understood even by fifth circuit
Rapture Engineers.
The characteristics of the neuroelectric circuit are high velocity, multiple choice,
relativity, and the fission-fusion of all perceptions into parallel science-fiction
universes of alternate possibilities.
The mammalian politics which monitor power struggles among terrestrial humanity are here
transcended, i.e., seen as static, artificial, an elaborate charade. One is neither
coercively
manipulated into another's territorial reality nor forced to struggle against it with
reciprocal emotional game-playing (the usual soap-opera dramatics). One simply elects,
consciously, whether or not
to share the other's reality-model.
Tactics for opening and imprinting the sixth circuit are described and rarely experienced
in advanced rajah yoga, and in the hermetic (coded) manuals of the medieval-Renaissance
alchemists and
Illuminati.
No specific sixth circuit chemical is yet available, but strong pyschedelics like
mescaline (from my 1962-63 "sacred cactus," peyotl) and psilocybin (from the
Mexican "magic mushroom," teonactl) open the nervous system to a mixed-media
series of circuit V and circuit VI channels. This is appropriately called
"tripping," as distinguished from straight- forward fifth circuit "turning
on" or "getting high."
The suppression of scientific research in this area has had the unfortunate result of
turning the outlaw drug culture back toward fifth circuit hedonics and pre-scientific
tunnel-realities (the occult
revival, solipsism, Pop Orientalism). Without scientific discipline and methodology, few
can successfully decode the often-frightening (but philosophically crucial) sixth circuit
metaprogramming signals.
Such scientists as do continue to study this subject dare not publish their results (which
are illegal) and record ever-wider tunnel-realities only in private conversations--like
the scholars of the Inquisitorial era. (Voltaire announced the Age of Reason two centuries
too soon. We are still in the Dark Ages.) Most underground alchemists have given up on
such challenging and risky self-work and restrict their trips to fifth circuit erotic
tunnels.
The evolutionary function of the sixth circuit is to enable us to communicate at
Einsteinian relativities and neuro-electric accelerations, not using third circuit
larynegeal-manual symbols but directly via feedback, telepathy and computer link-up.
Neuro- electric signals will increasingly replace "speech" (hominid grunts)
after space migration.
When humans have climbed out of the atmosphere-gravity well of planetary life, accelerated
sixth circuit contellgence will make possible high-energy communication with "Higher
Intelligences," i.e.,
ourselves-in-the-future and other post- terrestrial races. It is charmingly simple and
obvious, once we realize that the spaced-out neural experiences really are
extraterrestrial, that getting high and spacing out are accurate metaphors. Circuit V
neurosomatic rapture is preparation for the next step in our
evolution, migration off the planet. Circuit VI is preparation for the step after that,
interspecies communication with advanced entities possessing electronic (post-verbal)
tunnel-realities.
Circuit VI is the "universal translator" often imagined by science-fiction
writers, already built into our brains by the DNA tape. Just as the circuits of the future
butterfly are already built into the caterpillar.
Associated consequences to be taken into account include:
A Neurogenetic ontology, an
anotomical-empirical theory of the eight levels of reality, their evolution and
interaction.
The Cyber-electronic stage - reception,
integration and transmission of neural signals at the simultaeity and velocity of a
bio-electrical grid; not programmed by government imprints, but by the individual. Brain
Consciousness.
Neurophysical Freedom to
expand, accelerate, control one's own nervous system and to broadcast and receive
electronically. The Freedom to migrate from the point of origin and the planet. The
Constraint of interfering with the brain-reward process and the neuro-electrical
transception of others. The Constraint of interfering with the extra-planetary plans of
others.
Revolution-revealation Electronic
Revelation (brain time)
Social grouping Telepathy;
cyborg fusion
Level of Truth Neurophysical
truth: all the neural signals registered as bio-electrical impulses recieved by the brain
("My synaptic transmissions")
Reality Class The Sixth
Reality is the imprint of the nervous system of and by and unto itself. Einsteinian
consciousness no longer frozen to larval circuits or to the body. Brain reality is a
relativistic, changing of millions of bio-electrical signals flashing around a thirty
billion cell network. The statement "consciousness is no longer frozen" is not
metaphorical; it refers to biochemical-electrical changes at the synaptic level which
liberate the flow of signals from routine patterns. The term "static,
imprinted-conditioned world" refers to the neural wired programs hooked into reality
islands.
Individual/species evolution An
ontology defining the spectrum of realities.
