Unconsciousness in yourself!?

Consciousness is so-called an ongoing process of acquiring yourself;
A newborn baby is incapable of being either conscious or unconscious.
Amazingly enough, he or she will soon be aware of their own flaring existence.

Growing up, hearing the voices of the adults around,
Boys and girls will gradually notice the other existence of unconsciousness,
Something weird who never speaks, staying just around themselves.

Some do not notice it even when they grow up,
Some call it the unearthly ghost or superstition.

Meanwhile, every morning we wake up from a night's sleep.
For it is a custom of our society, of our body from birth.

Even some more will be indefinitely convinced to take for granted,
Unconsciousness (e.g., sleep) first, then everyday awaking.

Therefore, little do we think in our daily life that;
The sea of your unconsciousness--you are just unaware of it-- is actually
Connected to the shore of your consciousness of which you are aware right now!

Consciousness has been yourself, which is your clear and sound landscape.
How pitiful it would be, however, if you alienate your rich and prolific depth,
As if it were not you, yourself...

Unconsciousness has been with you since you were born.
It is living inside, beside you, though it is dumb at all.
Unconsciousness is taking care of you in your perception and memory.

So the reason why people feel sometimes narrow and hearless is,
Because they behave like battering their own unconsciousness. ao


This prose poem was created mainly inspired by Bernard J. Baars (1997).

On romance and love

   Mother was not allowed to go to high school when she was young. Subsequently, she allowed me and Key, my sister, to read the world collected works of literature for children. Despite the early days of Japanese tempting  mangas and animation films (mostly for TV, somehow under the influence of American pop culture), we deeply owed much to her grittiness to get opportunities for world great pieces. Without many experiences about romance or love, with what little subjective idea of friendship and persistence, those thoughtful and sophisticated fictions have surely expanded our world dramatically, and they turn over time, more and more, appropriate .    I learned years later that Stendhal (1783-1842) had addressed the issue of life and love in France shortly after the fall of Napoleon Bonaparte. Stendhal said that, I believe it now too, women are braver than the bravest men, which is followed by this below: Only they [women] must have a man to be in ...
KARA'S TEAR REVIEWED Kara was an anomalistic artificial intelligence which emitted a desire to survive. Yet, in the real world (2019), nothing is evidenced whether the machines' feeling, as well as animals, is authentic. Having seen this exquisite short film (2012) again, my interest is not in ‘AIs’ that will sooner or later threat us but in the human who will no wonder do an impact exactly when the Wreck Havoc occurs.       Men tend to think AIs with IC tips are a threat (like humanoids) because they will become wiser than us in the near future. Contrary, the more realistic tipping point might be in our brain (e.g.,    right temporoparietal junction, rTPJ): the human social skill, shortly, our fallacious compassion for AIs. How many people will soon become more compassionate being against the increasing ‘AIs,’ as of that in the censor in this short film?    The truth is, Japan has already witnessed many such cases in elderly welfa...

Quality of Life

   Quality of life (QOL) is often discussed to proclaim the quality of mundane opportunity for the physically challenged people such as the blind and/or deaf. It tells us that those who don't inherently see or hear will nonetheless live their life to the same (or even more) extent as most of the others do. However, this idea sheds light upon a more general question of how to think about your origins and encounters: that is, the question of your own interpretation about circumstantial perception and behavior.    Parents spending money for their kid's academic motivation, for example, would probably run against a later glitch, hearing, "It won't pay for God's sake!" When he or she grew up in the college, a pretension of belief that you pay for academic achievement to deserve it is in turn brandished. The thinking runs gradually dry and eventually halts just at the moment of paying tuition. One explanation of this is that the non-creative consumptive society ...
