Breaking the Mould - Changing the Way You Think

What is a MEME?
A meme is to the consciousness what a gene is to the physical body
Genes are of the physical world
Memes are of the world of thought
Memes are thoughts we think without thinking. A meme therefore lives in our subconscious and can define our behavior, reactions, actions, motives, tastes, preferences, inclinations, interests, decisions. But rarely to we identify them.
Memes come from societal norms. Memes come from parents. For example incest happens in the children of incested women at nearly 4 times the prevalence than in those children of non incested mothers. This is not a gene - it is a meme.
WE have social norms. And these are memes because we hardly know that they can be questioned. In some religious societies people are punished severely for breaking or even questioning memes.
As a change agent in human love, I must question those memes and therefore I get allot of resistance from people. Memes are often unquestioned.
To do what you love in your life you must break memes. This is the key to it. Memes can sit in your subconscious and prevent you living the authentic life you know is possible.
Here are some memes, that can prevent you from living your dreams.
The meme that something always looks after us (universe or god or someone)
The meme that our expectations are real and the world has a problem
The meme that we are separate from nature
The meme that support means love and challenge is not worthy of love
The meme that you are, in some way, better off copying someone else.
The meme that someone is happier than you
The meme that there is a place where there is less challenge
The meme that growth means more success and mental peace.
Here are some new memes you might like to replace the above with;
Nothing is wrong. There is only beauty in the world that I still haven't been able to see....
Love is support and challenge. There will never be an imbalance.
Challenge is as much fun as support/
I cannot be right. Even my intuition is half wrong. My thoughts are half right. I can only do what I love.
There is nothing to fix. It isn't broken. Everything is worthy of love. No matter. Anything we try to fix just proves our own judgments and causes more memes. There are no excuses
There is no one to blame - nobody does more to us than we do to ourselves.
