Psychologically speaking

You mean to tell me we've been here sitting listening to you and you know nothing?

Head • 1968

Peter:

We were talking with the Master regarding the nature of conceptual reality. Psychologically speaking, the human mind, or brain or whatever, is almost incapable of distinguishing between the real and the vividly imagined experience. Sound and film and music and radio. Even these manipulative experiences are received more or less directly and uninterpretive by the mind. They are cataloged and recorded and either acted upon directly, or stored in the memory, or both. Now this process, unless we pay it tremendous attention, begins to separate us from the reality of the now. Am I being clear? For we must allow the reality of the now to just happen, as it happens. Observe and act with clarity. For where there is clarity, there is no choice. And were there is choice, there is misery. But then, why should I speak, since I know Nothing? Davy Jones:
Nothing? You know Nothing? Peter:
That's right. Davy Jones:
You mean to tell me we've been here sitting listening to you and you know Nothing?

regarding the nature of conceptual reality.

00:00:06.000 --> 00:00:08.543

Psychologically speaking...

00:00:08.628 --> 00:00:12.013

The human mind... or brain, or whatever...

00:00:13.174 --> 00:00:16.843

is almost incapable of distinguishing between the real...

00:00:16.928 --> 00:00:19.179

and the vividly imagined experience.

00:00:19.263 --> 00:00:23.998

Sound and film of music and radio...

00:00:23.101 --> 00:00:25.519

even these manipulated experiences...

00:00:25.603 --> 00:00:28.814

are received more or less directly...

00:00:28.898 --> 00:00:31.108

and uninterpreted by the mind.

00:00:32.985 --> 00:00:35.821

They are catalogued and recorded...

00:00:35.905 --> 00:00:38.907

and either acted upon directly or stored in the memory...

00:00:38.991 --> 00:00:41.243

or both.

00:00:41.327 --> 00:00:43.062

Now, this process...

00:00:43.705 --> 00:00:47.999

unless we pay it tremendous attention...

00:00:48.459 --> 00:00:52.002

begins to separate us from the reality of the now.

00:00:54.002 --> 00:00:56.001

Am I being clear?

00:00:57.343 --> 00:01:00.637

For we must allow the reality of the now...

00:01:00.722 --> 00:01:03.473

to just happen...

00:01:03.558 --> 00:01:05.934

as it happens.

00:01:06.001 --> 00:01:09.271

Observe and act with clarity...

00:01:10.999 --> 00:01:12.566

for where there is clarity...

00:01:12.001 --> 00:01:14.568

there is no choice...

00:01:14.652 --> 00:01:17.654

and where there is choice, there is misery.

00:01:19.741 --> 00:01:22.001

But then why should I speak...

00:01:22.999 --> 00:01:24.161

since I know nothing?

00:01:26.914 --> 00:01:29.875

Nothing? You know nothing?

00:01:29.959 --> 00:01:31.334

That's right.

00:01:31.419 --> 00:01:34.999

You mean to tell me we've been sitting here listening to you, and you know nothing?

00:01:34.547 --> 00:01:37.005

- Well, take it easy, Davy. - Easy?

00:01:37.994 --> 00:01:39.999

What do you mean, "Take it easy"?

00:01:39.001 --> 00:01:43.001

Now, we're stuck in a room. We're stuck in this big, black box.

00:01:43.999 --> 00:01:46.999

Now, you're telling me to take it easy, and he's saying he don't know nothing.

00:01:46.684 --> 00:01:48.001

- Now, what is this? - Don't you see, David?

00:01:48.999 --> 00:01:50.979

- - It doesn't matter whether we're in the box or not.

00:01:51.002 --> 00:01:54.232

It's not important, huh? Well, let me tell you something. It's important to me.

00:01:54.999 --> 00:01:57.402

I'll show you how to get out of this box. You want to get out of this box?

00:01:57.999 --> 00:01:59.696

This is how you get out.

00:02:56.999 --> 00:02:59.548

- Where you boys headin'? - We're just passin' through.

00:02:59.001 --> 00:03:03.861

Ah, just passin' through? You look like you're lost to me, don't they, fellas?
