“As
above so below, as within so without”
So many times
I’ve heard this “Universal Law”, and I’ve seen and experienced many ways
where the first part has taken shape and form in my life’s experiences.
The second part has always proven fairly elusive to me until I began
studying and applying one of the greatest treasures of One Brain
Integration- the phenomenon of Structure/Function.
I understood the connection
between thought (intention) and energy in producing a result- all the
Spiritual ramifications. As a doubting Thomas I’ve not trusted it and
have tested this “Law” so many times I’ve lost count. However, I’m
convinced that it IS true. The impact of “as within so without” part is
becoming more of an integral part of my life now that I’ve bridged the
gap between the physical form, thought, and action.
Structure/Function is the
study of the inter-relationship between our brain cell proportion (how
many brain cells are devoted to a particular activity) and the external
body feature associated with that particular activity. Sounds
complicated, but it’s really simple. An owl has huge eyes, and if we
measured the ratio of brain cells devoted to sight we would find an
enormous proportion. In shrews, who have very
poor sight, they have a tiny number of cells devoted to sight- Simple!
Humans are similar in
construction. Therefore, I, who have large ears, have been tested as
having more hearing processing of information than sight. Vice versa
holds just as true.
How does this help me? Well,
tremendously!
When we first meet someone,
the single most important outward indication of how we should best
approach is the height of their eyebrows. Yes, eyebrows. (The
professionals at Three in One Concepts have tested to determine what
function is associated with what behavior and 60 have tested
out with 99% accuracy). Higher eyebrows
mean: I need to check you (or the situation) out before letting you in
or accepting you. This is to keep me safe. If I let you in and you hurt
me, I will suffer deeply and will not trust you again. There is also a
sense of formality in my dress and behavior.
On the other
hand, someone with lower brows (we even use the term “low brow” in a
derogatory way), only wants acceptance and will allow someone else to
get physically very close, even if s/he doesn’t really want that.
Informality is the name of the game; in speech, dress and action
(patting on the back for example).
It appears that if we put
these two together there’ll be a war. In a relationship that’s what
often happens. The male (usually, but not always, lower eyebrows)
pursues the female (usually higher eyebrows). The
female backs away to create more distance (safety) and the male tries to
get closer and feel accepted. What a potential disaster!
There is a way out however!
What it takes is the acknowledgement of what each is feeling, what they
want, and what each is willing to do. This leads to negotiation and
ultimately harmony in the relationship.
