Winning-streak continues again today as I begin watching episode 6 today, for the first time ever, this calendar-day 11/04/2023, but I'm not explaining that part

That episode 6 premiered 11/22/2019

4 years ago this month

I am watching it now, for the first time ever, this day 11/04/2023. Because I chose *today* to watch it for the first time ever and for the first time ever I become aware *today* of its content

Premise

In the 21st century, a virus wiped out most of humanity. Fewer than two million people survived, and all their descendants have lost their sense of sight. See takes place several centuries later, by which time society has found new ways to socially interact, build, hunt, and survive without vision, albeit at a much lower economic level; humanity has returned to tribal hunter-gatherer and medieval-type societies. Knowledge of the old, sighted world has become lost or distorted; it is believed that materials such as metal, concrete, and plastic were created supernaturally by gods. The concept of vision has become a myth, and any mention of it is considered heresy.

Premise

See's action takes place in an area contested by two rivals: the Payan Kingdom (capital city: Kanzua) and the Trivantian Republic (capital city: Trivantes). In the mountains, a pregnant woman named Maghra seeks shelter with the Alkenny tribe. The Chief of the Alkenny, Baba Voss, who has been unable to father children, marries her and adopts her children. Their biological father, Jerlamarel, is wanted by the Queen of the Payan Kingdom for the heresy of being "sighted" (the natural ability to see). Word spreads of Jerlamarel siring children, prompting a witch hunt for Jerlamarel and his offspring. Baba Voss must protect both his family and his tribe against the Queen's army.

"The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind"

Chapter 6 - The Moral Consciousness of the Khabiru

In the true bicameral period, there was usually a visual component to the hallucinated voice, either itself hallucinated









"The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind"

by Julian Jaynes, author

Chapter 6 - The Moral Consciousness of the Khabiru

around the latter part of the second millennim B.C., and of the roving tribes uprooted from their lands by various catastrophes, some of them certainly bicameral and unable to move toward subjective consciousness. Probably in the editing of the historical books of the Old Testament, and the fitting of it together into one story in the sixth or fifth century B.C., a great deal has been suppressed. And among such items of information that we would like is a clear account of what happened to these last communities of bicameral men.

Chapter 6 - The Moral Consciousness of the Khabiru

Groups of bicameral men certainly persisted until the downfall of the Judean monarchy, but whether in association with other tribes or with any organization to their hallucinated voices in the form of gods, we don't know. They are often referred to as the "sons of nabiim," indicating that there was probably a strong genetic basis for this type of remaining bicamerality. It is, I think, the same genetic basis that remains with us as part of the etiology of schizophrenia.

Edgy kings consulted them. Ahab, king of Israel in 835 B.C., rounded up 400 of them like cattle to listen to their hue and clamor

and have hundreds of these poor bicameral men herded up to them, raving

Chapter 6 - The Moral Consciousness of the Khabiru

What happened to them? From time to time, they were hunted down and exterminated like unwanted animals.

Obadiah took a hundred nabiim and hid them in caves

Chapter 6 - The Moral Consciousness of the Khabiru

We hear no more of these bicameral groups thereafter. What remained for a few centuries more are the individual nabiim, men whose voices do not need the group support of other hallucinating men, men who can be partly subjective and yet still hear the bicameral voice. These are the famous nabiim whose bicameral messages we have already selectively touched upon:

These of course merely represent the handful of that much larger number whose bicameral voices seemed to be most consistent with Deuteronomy. And then the voices are as a rule no longer actually heard.

In their place is the considered subjective thought of moral teachers. Men still dreamed visions and heard dark speech perhaps. But Ecclesiastes and Ezra seek wisdom, not a god. They study the law. They do not roam out into the wilderness "inquiring of Yahweh." By 400 B.C., bicameral prophecy is dead. "The nabiim shall be ashamed everyone of his vision." If parents catch their children naba-ing or in dialogue with bicameral voices they are to kill them on the spot

Chapter 6 - The Moral Consciousness of the Khabiru

That is a severe injunction. If it was carried out, it is an evolutionary selection which helped move the gene pool of humanity toward subjectivity.

Quotes

Talking Rings: The war between the East and West, which is now in it's three hundred and twenty-sixth year, has at last come to an end. There is nothing left to fight with, and few of us left to fight. The atmosphere has become so polluted with deadly germs that it can no longer be breathed. There is no place on this planet that is immune. The last surviving factory for the manufacturing of oxygen has been destroyed. Stockpiles are rapidly diminishing. And when they are gone, we must die.
