155. The emotion of fear

Self-consciousness is initially an automatic "evolutionary evolution" by excluding all "otherness" from itself, and the self is equal to itself;

Its essence and "appearance" is the self to it;

In this case, it is an individual existence.

The other "self-consciousness" is what it sees as a non-essential "object of analysis" marked by a negative character.

But another "self-awareness" is also a self-awareness;

Here there is a situation where an individual is opposed to an individual;

It's like another "Pippi" lives in Pippi's mind;

As it appears at the moment, they all appear as ordinary "analytical targets" with each other.

They are all independent forms, ideologies that are immersed in the "outside" of "life";

For here the "outside" that exists is "life", and these ideologies have not yet completed the movement of an absolute abstract process with each other: there is no consciousness that has eradicated all "external" connections and has become self-identity;

In other words, they have not yet identified each other as purely "inner beings" or "self-conscious".

Each party is convinced of its own existence, but not of the other, and therefore its own conviction of itself is not sufficient to reach the height of "truth".

Just like the first fan of the book, "ZYP Comes Out", asks Shomai: How do you prove that this theory you wrote is true?

What about the evidence?

What about the evidence??

What about the evidence???

Say the important thing three times!

But Roasted Mai can only be cheeky and say: there is no evidence!

This is the most "correct" theory of consciousness that Siu Mai himself thinks, and it is the combination of two or three philosophical concepts over the years that has evolved into Siu Mai's own "inner world view", and Siu Mai uses this theoretical system to understand himself, others, society, and his entire life.

However, all this is just the "conviction" of Rook Mai himself, and this conviction cannot reach the height of "truth" in any way.

So Roasted Mai can only say to "ZYP came out":

If I hear it, I will listen to it!

(I've heard of these things, so listen to them, believe it or not!)

"If I Hear It" and "Listen to It" are the names of two anecdotal books compiled by Ji Xiaolan after she turned seventy;

also take this eight-character tribute to Xiaolong, although there are few fans of the roasted wheat, but the roasted wheat is thick-skinned, neither humble nor arrogant...... No problem!

Back to our topic:

For the truth of the "self-conscious" consciousness, its own characteristic "constant evolution" will be shown to be an independent "object of analysis";

In other words, the "goal of analysis" will be expressed as this pure "conviction" of itself.

But it seems impossible to admit this "conviction" that another "self-consciousness" exists for it, and it exists for another "self-consciousness";

This is possible only under such conditions of mutual recognition.

But to show itself to be a self-conscious "being" is to point out that it is not bound to any particular being, not to any individuality of general existence, and not to "life".

This process of representation is a two-way street: the actions of the other and the actions of the other through oneself.

Insofar as it is the action of the other, it is the "negation of negation" of the other, and each party wants to "negate" the other, causing the other to die.

That is, I, "self-consciousness", through its own movement, contains the danger of destroying itself.

Thus the relationship between the two "self-conscious" beings is characterized by the fact that they prove their existence through a life-and-death struggle between themselves and each other.

They must take part in this life-and-death struggle, because they must raise their own "conviction", their "conviction" of "pure inner existence", to the level of "truth", both for each other and for themselves.

It is only by risking one's own destruction that one can be free, and only by such a test can it be proved that the essence of self-consciousness is not an ordinary being, not a "consciousness" as it first appeared, not a submersion in a wide range of external "life"!

"Self-consciousness" is only a pure "inner being", for which all other "externalities" disappear later, without affecting its "existence".

In the process, Pipsqueak, like every intelligent individual, asks himself repeatedly: If my "life" or "body" is gone, then does "I" still exist?

My "body" is dead, but "I" (self-consciousness) is still there?

If so, where did you go?

What's the point of all this if not?

......

Pippi's reflection on the existence or non-existence of "self-consciousness" comes from the "life-and-death struggle" between the two "self-consciousnesses"!

In this process, the "self-consciousness" is constantly analyzing the "self-consciousness", and at the same time, the "external" "life" is stripped of the analysis process, and the two "self-consciousness" have become a new round of opposition and unity!

......

In this "struggle", when Pipsqueak senses another "self-consciousness" that is being taken as a "target of analysis", Pipsqueak puts himself in the situation of another "self-consciousness":

This leads to the fact that "self-consciousness" takes "Pippi" as an "object of analysis" and an "object of negation"!

In this moment, to be denied, to be destroyed, Pipsqueak will feel an emotion from the depths of the spirit:

Fear!

......

The other "self-consciousness" is not afraid of this or that disaster at this moment, but of his whole "being", because he has felt the "fear of destruction", the fear of "self-consciousness".

That's where "fear" comes in!

Let's take the example of ZYP, a friend of Siu Mai: When ZYP's baby was hospitalized due to illness, he was waiting for the doctor to treat him:

Follow our analysis to substitute:

ZYP's first "self-awareness" tells ZYP with the help of "experience", "memory" and "regularity": wait for the doctor's conclusion, before that, everything is a fantasy, nothing will help, just wait with peace of mind!

However, ZYP's other "self-consciousness" secretly told ZYP: if the situation is not optimistic, the baby will suffer a lot, how and how, at this moment, ZYP accidentally substitutes himself into the situation of another "self-consciousness", and the other "self-consciousness" is trying to "negate" the first "self-consciousness", the two roles are temporarily reversed, and the "fear" of the first "self-consciousness" for "destruction" is quickly transmitted to ZYP;

So, we saw this friend ZYP who burned the wheat, and he was really "scared"!

Even if it's just for a moment!

Afterwards, he immediately returned to the first situation of "self-awareness", and with the help of "experience", "memory" and "law", he strengthened the "concept" or "idea" he had refined himself, so as to get rid of "fear"!

This is the process of "fear" from generation to disappearance!
