The Dalai Lama / Ekman Model: Mechanical, Not Magical

With the help of the Dalai Lama / Ekman “timeline of emotions” cognitive model which I will introduce in the next chapter, though, we can perceive this passing between us of intentions / Mana / emotions / energy as being quite mechanical.

It just happens so fast that we are not aware of all the stages we go through while our minds are transformed from one state to another by Disinfolklore.

Also, because until I coined this word “Mana” to describe this process, you did not have a means to isolate this aspect of what it means to be human.

Now with Mana we can, at last, meditate on and control the exchanges of Mana that Disinfolklore uses to undermine all our communications.

The demystification argument. Mana exchange seems magical — but TER reveals it as mechanical. It just happens so fast we miss the stages. The author’s claim is precise: before the word ‘Mana’ existed in this analytical framework, there was no means to isolate this aspect of human experience. Now, with Mana as a concept and TER as a model, we can meditate on and control the exchanges that Disinfolklore exploits. The word ‘meditate’ is deliberate — connecting to Tool 11 (Mindfulness/Focus).
