What Stands Between You and Transformation
The Head Center: Thinking About Things that Do Not Matter
One of the amusing things for me is to think about the whole construct mentally, the thing about these two centers. The Head Center, thinking about things that don‘t matter. Seventy percent of humanity has an open Head Center. ―Honey, the house is on fire.‖ ―Sorry, I‘m thinking about something that doesn't matter.‖ This could change your life. Yeah, I know but I‘m investigating this particular exotic nuance, whatever it may be. That‘s seventy percent of humanity; seven out of every ten of you, including myself. Think about it.
Then you wonder why the dinner table conversation, the coffeehouse conversation is rather banal. After all, the vast majority of human beings never think about what matters. It‘s a funny way to make a decision based on things don't matter. What about your life?
The Ajna Center: Pretending You are Certain
You know this one, don‘t you—pretending that you're certain. Oh yeah, I‘m absolutely certain. There is absolutely no way that this is going to—boom. You know these people. It‘s frightening to think about what happens to us out of conditioning. It‘s frightening. There you are with your open Ajna Center and the one thing you don‘t want to be in this life is embarrassed that you screwed up, that you didn‘t get it right. And you hold on to that particular concept, whatever it

happens to be, and you hold on to it, and you hold on to it. You squeezed the damn thing to death. It's not yours. It was never yours. And the concept that you hold on to that you're so certain about is going to define your not-self life, which means there you go off on that tangent pretending you're mentally certain about things that don't matter. Well good for you.
Think about all those people out there like that. Oh boy, are there a lot of people like that out there. They‘re everywhere. This is the world you live in. It‘s what happens to a human being when they listen to what they are not, when that becomes their guide, when that becomes their authority. It‘s not bad enough that human beings accept overt authority from just about anything—lover, friend, dog, state, religion. And then you take in, in this way, complete authority from others.
You never have a chance. It‘s so easy to move the sheep, the homogenized world. This world is run on a half a dozen concepts; everybody in lockstep—this side, that side.
This is a momentous opportunity to establish individual consciousness. It has never, ever existed. You can‘t call the drib drab that comes out of somebody‘s notself mind a real expression of consciousness. It is not. And individual? It‘s all just regurgitated over and over and over again. This knowledge is not just simply heretical, it‘s radical. It says you have to be here for you. That if you‘re not going to be here for you, if you're not going to live this life according to what is your authority, then go back out there into the zoo, because what's the point. The notself has never derived any point other than to suggest that perhaps after death something cool might happen. Give me a break.

What Stands Between You and Transformation
The G Center: Trying to Find Direction and Love
One of the amazing things about the beginning of awareness is about movement. It's about understanding what we are, that we are objects moving in space. It means that where we are is really everything for us. And it means that how you get there, the decision you make, this is your navigation. The moment you‘re navigating out of your not-self, you‘re off on a lost track and you're far away and not pointed at what is possible for you.
In so many ways this can be expressed so deeply in those who have an undefined G Center, an open G, the G Center and its themes of love and direction, how the mind can be tormented by that. How, because of that openness, that it is unable to fully recognize when love is actually present, unable to recognize when they're in the right place because that's not where they‘re looking. And even if they stop for a moment and see it, there‘s always the assumption that they‘re somewhere else. Oh, it can be quite a painful process, deep.
And what do they want? They want the direction. They want the love. They‘re the ones who end up telling you where it's supposed to be as if they actually know for themselves. They don‘t. Every time you make a decision, every time you navigate with your mind, you navigate away from who you are. Identity is not the point for an undefined G Center. It is simply interesting, but it‘s not the point. Openness is never the point. But it is certainly interesting. I enjoy my whiteness. It is deeply entertaining, but it's not the point. The point is living what is correct so you can actually become a passenger, a realized passenger, rather than being just another extra on the stage of the homogenized world.

The Root Center: Always in a Hurry to be Free
Imagine what that‘s like, people who can‘t stand being placed under pressure. The hundreds of millions of beings who can't stand being placed under pressure, can‘t handle being place under pressure, blow up or speed up, burn out, always in a hurry. You know these people. You have one of these office jobs where everybody gets a certain amount of stuff they have to do for the day, and you give it to one of these people and they get it done in three hours and everybody is pissed, because everybody else is going to be under pressure now to do what they do and nobody likes that.
That‘s the kind of person everybody else in the office goes up to at the coffee break and says, ―Hey, slow down.‖ And they don‘t know how because they can‘t stand it.
They can get so bizarre that they can wake up in the morning and can't stand the idea that they have to move through the day. It‘s not who they are. If they live that, are they ever going to be a distorted being. I know, I have an undefined Root, I know what it is. I have an undefined Sacral, I know what it is, and I know what it does. Awareness is the only thing that heals. Nothing else heals. Awareness heals.
