Roswell '75 part 1

...So while we're waitin' for everybody to get in, I'm very glad to be here, I'm very happy to see all the wonderful people I've seen so many times. So we'll wait just a second until everybody gets in. And we will be ready to start....(note; skipped part of tape)
We're going to talk today, basically on ideas. Now, ideas are basically what we all live by, whether we are aware of it or not. And we will try through the day to come up with what ideas are, which is the ones we talk with all of the time that you unknowingly use, and ones that we could use. Now we're going to first start with a little diagram for a little bitty bit. This is I with a line drawn under it. Real I. Now all it only has one purpose. And that purpose is survive. Now it has never made an idea. Now matter how many times you have say, 'my idea' it didn't make it, you just borrowed that one somewheres. And no matter how many times you have come up with an idea in the head and fallen in love with it, and wasted all your money and went broke, or what ever else happened to you, you did not originate that idea. Now there are two sources of ideas available to us, one is conditioning. And in the tapes and other things we call this 'not-I'. It is not 'I' with a line drawn under it, it is sometimes called 'I' with quotation marks around it. It is a false 'I'. Now it has all gobs of ideas, all of which purport how to tell us to survive......(interrupted by student coming in late) So the 'not I's', or "I" the false "I" has a bunch if ideas which it constantly suggests to I. Now I is very subject suggestion.  I with a real I  'cause it's lookin' for a ways and means to survive It's lookin' for tools you might say. Now the first tool we got of course was the four dual basic urges that which you're all familiar with that the purpose of living is to gain pleasure and escape pain, gain attention and avoid being ignored and rejected, and oh what terrors it is when we are rejected a little bit. And to gain approval and escape disapproval, and to gain a sense of importance, and escape a sense of inferiority and useless or unnecessary. Then it is suggested that is the whole purpose of living, the way to survive. And it tells us it is the only way to survive is to have pleasure and comfort, and escape pain on all levels, and if you never had any pain, you'd never survive very long. You'd pick up a hot skillet and would never know it until you smelled meat the fresh meat cookin'. You would eat somethin' that was poison, and you wouldn't get nauseated and upchuck, you would just die a little bit. If you come across some nice little lovely bacteria or some little micro organism that like to set up housekeeping and like to use our blood stream for their sewage disposal, there would be no adaptation to it, there would be no effort to through it off, they would destroy you. But thank goodness they go through an effort to destroy them, X, life does, and we feel pretty rigged, don't we? And certainly we don't want everybody's attention, it would smother me very quickly. Sometimes you need a little privacy and don't need so much attention. And certainly, I want to be ignored by a whole bunch of people, bill collectors, various and sundry other noxious agents that run through the world. And I don't care if I have approval of everybody because some people only approve of me if I get drunk, some people will only approve of me if I help them rob a bank. Some people will only approve of me if I go dirty, if I don't clean myself up at all. Other people only approve if I do things that I'm just totally disinterested in. And I don't want to be important, because if I'm important, everybody's gonna be shootin' at me. I like to be totally unnoticed, low profile, and go merrily on my way. So if we look at those, that was not a means for survival for a grown person.
