Disconnection

Disconnection refers to a disconnection of Bodily Ego from Spiritual Ego (or more generally, a disconnection of the brain from the Fabric of Consciousness.

Notes

Underhill uses the term Practical Man to refer to a disconnected individual, in particular, a Naive Materialist who cannot see beyond .

Disconnection results in the lowering of the Consciousness Quotient of the Physical Unit, attenuation of higher brain function, and a consequent reduction in moral capacity, intelligence, compassion, empathy, intuition, creativity, independence, and identity.

Disconnection is caused by:

• The System and Indoctrination into the Ideology of Limitation
• Toxic Socialization
• Lack of Preparation
• Wrong Thought, Wrong Action, and Wrong Environment caused by Indoctrination
• Hurt, pain, chronic stress, and suffering of all types.

Disconnection leads to Disjuncture and Disconnection Pathology

Hell is the loneliness, isolation, anguish, pain, and despair that is often the result of disconnection

Petey Stevens was aware that unmet needs "close" or "shut down" and individual. "If a baby's caretakers are not available to the baby because of death or another absence such as work, are not supportive, or are abusive because of emotional immaturity or immorality, the baby grows up with negative 'charge' and self-destructive beliefs attached to his or her communications. The ... person is "shut down" or closed" to his or her soul's feelings or truth."

Rumi

Explains disconnection/heedlessness as necessary to the maintenance of the world. If it wasn't for disconnection, humans would not go about the tasks necessary to express the attributes of God.

God created the universe to make the Hidden Treasure manifest. Hence He wants the world to exist in order for it to display the unlimited creative potentialities of His Attributes. But for the world to remain in existence, true knowledge of things as they are must be kept from most of its inhabitants. Otherwise they would cease to occupy themselves with activities necessary for the display of the full range of His Attributes. So God desires the existence of certain things which one might not expect; but of course not in themselves, but rather as the concomitants of His ultimate goal in creating the world. For example, God desires that heedlessness and forgetfulness of Him should exist in the world.

The world is kept standing through heedlessness. If there were no heedlessness, this world would not remain. Yearning for God, recollection of the next world, spiritual intoxication, and ecstacy are the architects of that world. If all these displayed themselves, every one of us would go to that world and not remain here. But God wants us here so that the two worlds may exist. So He has appointed two magistrates, heedlessness and heedfulness, so that both houses may flourish. (F 109/120)

The pillar of this world, oh beloved, is heedlessness: Wakefulness is this world's bane.

Wakefulness comes from that world; when it prevails, this world is laid fiat.

Wakefulness is the sun and cupidity the ice, wakefulness water and this world dirt.

A few drops trickle down from that world so that cupidity and envy may not roar too loudly in this world.

If the trickle from the Unseen should increase, neither skills nor failings would remain in the world. (M I 2066-70)
