THE KEY IS THE REPTILIAN BRAIN.
The reptilian brain is a name for our basic primitive brain, with its basic function to survive – fight, flight or freeze. The term reptilian brain can be misleading, and can become a bogey man. The primitive brain functions as “Might is Right”. Primitive does not mean unsophisticated, when embedded into the human mind.
Interestingly, in history, this basic brain has been connected to the Serpent, the Devil and Evil. Now I would like to investigate another connection. Firstly, I have to say that everything is a figment of our imagination – our collective imagination. Things exist at a relative level, but we exaggerate – and some people/cultures do this more than others.
This primitive brain has three instincts: FIGHT, FLIGHT AND FREEZE. The three basic negative emotions in our consciousness are DESIRE, AVERSION AND IGNORANCE, or to use other words – HOPE, FEAR AND INDIFFERENCE. This is what drives us, day in and day out. You can see the connection: they are a control mechanism for personal “I” survival.
These three principles not only help us survive in a coarse physical form, but they also keep us imprisoned in a mental state, of not knowing our true identity. These three basic negative emotions obscure our connection to higher functions, and limit our potential. That is why they are the devil…and by the way, the devil does not exist!
What we can now see is The Corporate ‘Reptilian’ Brain at work. Psychologists are finely aware of our likes, dislikes and don’t care attitudes, and use them against us, for their own profit. In order to make profit, the more control you have, the more wealth you create. Simple! The corporate primitive brain is based on “might is right”. They may appear to be sophisticated but use no higher functions, especially empathy and compassion!
If you fight against the corporate ‘primitive brain world,’ you are using your ‘primitive brain’. The same applies if you run away, or if you do nothing – you are complying with primitive brain orientations.
The way to breaking out of this prison is to know how your mind works and recognise your true nature. I won’t go into it now, but the secret of nature of these three poisons (desire, aversion and ignorance) is wisdom.
Reptilian Brain
Innermost in our brain is what is called the reptilian brain, its oldest and most primitive part. The reptilian brain appears to be largely unchanged by evolution and we share it with all other animals which have a backbone. At this level of evolution, behaviour relating to survival of the species, such as sexual behaviour, is instinctive and responses are automatic. Territory is acquired by force and defended. Might is right, based on fight, flight or freeze.
Mammalian Brain
Next to evolve from the reptilian brain was the mammalian brain. An enormous change took place as mammals evolved from reptiles, the mammalian brain containing organs for some conscious feelings about events (amygdala).
To this extent the mammal is more consciously aware of itself in relation to the environment. Millions of neural pathways connect the hippocampus and amygdala structures to the reptilian brain and behaviour is less rigidly controlled by instincts. It seems that feelings such as attachment, anger and fear have emerged with associated behavioural response patterns of care, fight, flight or freeze
Human Brain
And the mammalian brain became the human brain by adding the massive grey matter (neocortex) which envelopes most of the earlier brain and amounts to about 85 per cent of the human brain mass. This massive addition consists mostly of two hemispheres which are covered by an outer layer and interconnected by a string of nerve fibres. The brain is actually divided into left and right ’hemispheres’ .
The aim of The Corporate ‘Primitive’ Brain is to disconnect – as much as possible – the functions of these two parts of the brain. We can be manipulated through the right brain, while only being conscious of the left. This is neurosymbolic programming.
Thoughts, responses, and images are planted in the right brain, through symbolism and subliminal imagery while imprisoning the human consciousness in the left brain – the thinking hemisphere.
This is why the media system is designed to talk to the left brain via the right brain. The Corporate Primitive brain can enter the human brain through the right side, undetected, and these images and subliminal messages then enter the left brain as consciousness to be decoded. People therefore think that their thoughts and actions are their own: this is subtle neurolinguistic programming.
They know that by going through the right brain with suggestion, they can enter our mind and tell our left brain how to decode it into conscious language eg “I want to buy that car”: notice how all car advertising is done through imagery and sound, with no mention of the superior mechanics of that particular model.
The ‘media’ creates a make-believe fantasy world in endless forms: the “reptilian devil” was created in the very same way, and forums play their part too. Its aim is to open up the right brain and allow the ‘primitive’ brain to justify reactions in the left brain. This keep consciousness embedded in a mental prison.
Know the enemy.
Know your own mind.
Know how to be free.

Oh, one thing more. This primitive brain of FIGHT, FLIGHT AND FREEZE,
is the very same building blocks of this universe, ATTRACTION, REPULSION AND INERTIA- every atom and planet obeys it.
