Thank you. I'm a few years later, watching this, and I'm amazed that so many of the concepts and practices, such as the wheel of awareness, are what I've been mulling over. Dr. Dan Siegel frames it so much more clearly! If I may, I would offer that each one of us and the mwe is also historical. We can heal our past and our future.
Wow! He is amazingly brilliant. Thank you Dr. Siegel. You are a true inspiration. You have answered all my questions and validated my own discoveries .
Dan Siegal, a continual inspiration, with his ideas created by a synthesis of human experience and evidenced based science allows us to be freed from the cynical ego by his explanations and usable practical simple exercises bridging the gap between the newly understood if not completely understood workings of the brain. My experience if his explainations are clear and powered by the best aspects our common humanity a desire to heal and share fir our common good by being at peace with ourselves and each other through mindfulness. Thanks Dan.
There is a book called, Steps to Knowing -The Book of Inner Knowing by Marshall Vian Summers. It's a powerful spiritual practice. This practice with devotion and intent has taken me to experiences of what the book refers to as Knowledge or the Knowing Mind, which the author described as the part of the Mind that has never left God. It is very grounding, integrating and directly related to personal connection, purpose, meaning, and direction in service to each other and to this troubled world in need. The 8th sense. We are living in Separation from the Creator and this Knowing Mind is the connection. The man Dr. Siegel referred to as being one with everything had an experience of this Knowing Mind.
1:05s chaos and rigidity / perhaps linearity? as the two converge they both undergo their flavoring, or that is their nuances. if you stack linearity upon itself many times it will look chaotic, but in truth... its is ordered, if there is memory...
Yes ,brilliantly presented, i.e., nodes of self(individuation) and WE and the confusion or blindness of the WE and the empathic dance between the two or the interrelationship but you cannot intellectualized or expedite the process, however well intended. That is, you cannot "dissolve the illusion of our separateness" on intention. Integration for example, with those (actually a majority) who have experienced various lives of mild to severe early childhood trauma (i.e., disorder of early attachment, etc) can only meaningfully occur when the experiences, for example, of shame, guilt, rage etc. can be consciously accessed, i.e., voiced, felt and integrated through psychotherapeutic practices that reconnects not to an abstract we (albeit a universal existential fact) but rather to healthy Individuation. Without the latter (albeit with good intention or presence of mind) we risk a false and abstract (caricature) conception of the WE.
However, beautiful and diverse a healthy forest may be, it must start or reconstitute from healthy Individual seeds otherwise there is a tendency to denigrate or dissolve and analogous here to a false and abstract notion of WE or collective consciousness that is prematurely and not at an authentic feeling level (cellular level) if self (or selves) has been disassociated or fragmented. Paradoxically,, the reconstitution of healthy Individuation is first and foremost the necessity to then (more genuinely) empathically register, understand and get other or "We."

Nature is decidable so is the mind sight and so is integration
