Secrets From the Ages
Chapter 6
The Importance of Drama
Even though the Player may not realize it, he is always playing for the DRAMA. Thus dying of cancer, or being a drug addict, or alcoholic, or fighting in a war, or demonstrating against wars, or any other DRAMATIC thing is in line with the secret game of being DRAMATIC, and thus totally acceptable to the Player, if these things fit into his own basic opinion of DRAMA.
The Player will seek DRAMA and, unfortunately, when he thinks that failure or dying is the most DRAMATIC, that is what he will bring about. When a person feels that he is not creating what is DRAMATIC for himself, he will seek ways to make his life more DRAMATIC and if he feels that the negative side of DRAMA has the greatest DRAMA then he will go negative, or if the Player has lost the ability to create positive DRAMA he will go negative. We see this most often in criminals. They cannot create positive DRAMA any longer and thus they go negative. This is true of every drunk, every drug addict, and all other deaths as well as all other lives.
Of course, there is always a psychological explanation, and that explanation is often true. But the psychologists simply cannot see the underlying principle of DRAMA that is guiding it all. Here we have a Vietnam veteran. He comes home all screwed up from the war and the terrible things that he saw and did while there. He becomes a drunk and loses all the jobs that he gets. Finally we see him on the street as a homeless beggar. The psychologist's reason for his condition are because he saw such bad things in Vietnam. But what about all the thousands of others who came home and who didn't become homeless beggars. The underlying reason that the psychologist doesn't see is the DRAMA of it all. How terrible it all was and how terribly it affected him creates the DRAMA.
What a Player thinks is DRAMATIC depends upon his education in this lifetime plus his past before this lifetime. Education consists of the school of hard knocks as well as standard schooling. What people consider DRAMATIC is often quite insane, but the fact remains, people control their destiny. It is hidden that they do, but it is still a fact. People will go to all kinds of lengths to prove that they are not in control of their life. They will go to church every Sunday and thank God for their life, and thank him for taking their loved ones, and thank him for giving them a job, or for seeing that they were fired.
Church each Sunday is mostly a dose of, "I'm not responsible." One might hide many things from himself, and the fact is, there are many things that are hidden in one's mind. Each of us hides many secrets there, and often those hidden things are part of our subconscious thinking. These subconscious thoughts can cause us to do many weird things, but it is all our own doing, not someone elses. What we do and what we bring about in our life is based upon creating DRAMA.
All those hidden things lead to DRAMA because that is the basis of all games in this universe and is the basic hidden computation in all decisions made with the exception, if one knows about this, then he can usually avoid adding that to the computation if he desires. However, it is normally not desirable to remove the DRAMA computation.
It is possible to make decisions without using the mind. That is
almost always the case when one all of a sudden overcomes some bad situation or
problem. One knows what to do without thinking. He just knows. In that case one
of two things is happening. The Player is either kidding himself, or he really
has chosen to know. After all, any Player knows all things and can know what to
do to solve a problem.
In the case of just knowing, the computation of DRAMA is not involved, because the mind is left out of the loop. Still, throughout the World, all people follow what they think is DRAMA for them. The considerations of what is DRAMA is often quite sick. Still, deep inside, each person follows his own considerations concerning DRAMA.
