Translation Draft

We have reached the age where our experiences manifest themselves as a "cooking session" in which the sum of ingredients poured abundantly into the "boiling pot" of our lives begin to make us trouble in being able to obtain a healthy, nutritious and giving meal in the most pleasant and useful experiences.

Worse, it is a "food" so concentrated that we must always take care of the cooking process so that it does not stick, or even burn, completely destroying everything that could be definable as "food" (for the rest of our days starting from that moment)...

And remember, the fire burning under this pot is not up to us! He can be small, he can be big... He is the fire of life, almost independent of our "response" capabilities or our desires...

From the point of view of my exposures, the time has come to make some clear demarcations (to understand everything that follows). Right from the beginning of my posts I had to deal with a "body-mind-spirit" triad. The body is the manifest element of all other components, the response to the balances at their level. If you have read previous posts you have encountered in use a term "ego".

He is not associable, in any case with the mind or body, being a manifestation of his own "interests" of the spirit. It is that something that manifests itself, most of the time, above us, of our ability to perceive but in direct relation to the spirit, is that something called by us subconsciously, that something that constantly manipulates the conscious at the level of the mind (but is not sociable to the mind to which the conscious can be associated only , as I mentioned earlier).

Now comes the hard part (as if, until now, it would have been easier...), the strangest... In the adult I will introduce a new term, "submask" (in the specialized works, since Gustav Jung, it is called "shadow" - but the term seems totally inappropriate to me being more an expression of something dirty, unclean, diabolical, etc., something detached from our fears, whereas, often, society can force us to overshadow the most human and divine experiences like love , gratitude, condescension, or the like).

Why did I use this name? For Jung, shadow is an unacceptable part of ourselves, a kind of inferior being who wants to do everything that is censored by the other manifestations, easily attributable to the term forbidden.

Moreover, he defines it as an unconscious complex, containing primitive impulses, desires and emotions, assessed as incompatible with the social standards in force or with the ideal of individuality to which the individual aspires.

And, understandably, the more restrictive the norms of the society or social group to which we belong, the more restrictive we act some of our own levers in a restrictive sense, the greater the manifestation of this shadow.

And, to make sense of the question at the beginning of this paragraph, what else does the mask use than to hide something, positioned under it? So, further, instead of the "affirmation" term "shadow", that's why I'm going to use the term "submask"...

Thus, sub-mask means all psychic contents (pulses, desires, traits, thoughts and emotional feelings) condemned, denied, evaluated as inferior or unacceptable and rejects the manifestation, the individual or those around him having visible only the mask.

Therefore, the sub-mask is necessary in the economy of creation, without this the individual being incomplete (as long as he has his temporary residence on Earth, in the physical body), the mask and the sub-mask being in relation to the individual. The sub-mask contains, it is true, all those aspects of ourselves that we deny, hide, that we do not love, that we are ashamed or afraid of, tendencies, emotions or thoughts that somehow seem unacceptable to us and for which we feel guilty or know that they may attract guilt.

But these aspects are as much part of ourselves as the ideas, feelings or actions we express on the social scene, in the great spectacle of masks. We can function without them, which we do in the current, without disturbing our way of wearing our masks, but in a state of division or dissociation of our own self.

And this self-imposition (socio-imposition, cultural-imposition, etc.) is far from being healthy for our body or for our mind, it is the main axe that will cut one by one the stars of our fulfillments.

So everything we "drag" from the first repressions of childhood, then from the "slaughter" of adolescence, with reference to some impulses, desires or representations judged, considered devalued, evaluated as disallowed, indecent, ugly or evil, etc. will constitute sub-mask.

Our hope, of all, secret as our gesture to constitute this sub-mask, will be that what we put there, there will remain. But we're totally wrong... All the constituent elements of the sub-mask have an interesting peculiarity, they are alive because they are part of everything that represents the manifest living in us.

And, the time has come to see, in a coarse way, what happens to the constituent elements of the sub-mask... First they do not develop, being simply selected and stored at this level of the sub-mask. Not being expressed and integrated into behaviors, they remain at primitive, initial, coarse and uncut stages, like a child raised in solitude who cannot overcome a rudimentary level of feeling and thinking.

Thus, sexuality or aggression, for example, stored at this level for a long time, when they manifest themselves will have obviously wild, primary or unevolved shades and tones, in total dissonance with the individual moment lived.

Secondly, all these elements of the self placed in the submass, being alive, begin to have their own evolution and, little by little, to function autonomously, i.e. to be incentibly in social attitudes and interactions.

When the energy accumulated in the submask exceeds the threshold of resistance specific to the self, or when the environment allows it as normal, ready to migrate from the submask to the mask, in other words, when censorship no longer copes with the pressures of the unconscious, or is no longer necessary, the elements of the submask infiltrate into conduct, projects, thoughts and ideas irrational, unsocialized and even inhumane.

The most serious cases are those in which the submask floods and replaces as much as possible the existing mask reaching to possess or dominate the eul, using it as a toy. Other times the sub-mask manifests itself in dreams, personified by abject or inferior beings who make reprehensible and disgusting gestures.

Here, in the dream, there are no more barriers and you have the opportunity to do everything that can be done in a state of wakefulness but you take back as inappropriate to the circumstances, rules, etc. In the dream you can do yourself justice without following the rules of the real world, regardless of violence, justice, etc., you can deceive your wife with whomever she is hit or wants, generally being actions that in ordinary life are intolerable and appalling, appealing to great inconvenience.

What is to be stressed here is that no matter how hard we try, the under-mask cannot be sealed, held in activity, and from time to time it manifests itself in the form of something foreign, coming from abyss that you tend not to recognize as your own...

Maybe that's why, what can be said after such "escapes" are just sighs (from the sigh) like: "I don't know what was wrong with me...", "it's like it wasn't me...", "I don't know what came over me..." and the like. Or it can be easily seen when it comes to works of any kind, the under-mask of the authors can be identified in novels or films that represent productions loaded with violent actions, unfair including eroticism of any level.

Why do you think that the highest-grossing films are the ones that reach collective levels of perception and/ or manifestation of sub-masks, being fascinating to people precisely because they put them in contact, even temporarily, with their own sub-masks, with their own abyss.

Offf and offf again!!! In the adult I have a lot of work to do and will follow many other posts before moving on to old age. But there's nothing I can do. So...

Even if it is not our holiday, any moment that reminds us of love and gratitude is welcome... So, "Let us all be loved and all of us be grateful"!
