The way I see it, TAK dissociates one from the current situation, which allows you to put things in perspective but limits your experince of the here and now. TAA (InstantShine) by contrast makes me very centered, grounded, here and now associated with my physical body. Rapunzel has been experimenting with alternating among the choices of TAK or TAA or neither. But what happens if you combine TAA and TAK? Do they pull indifferent directions? Do they cancel each other out or do they just make you uncomfortable and confused. Or do they actually give you both capabilities at the same time. If the latter, are you able to move back and forth at ease between associated and dissociated or might one actually be able to maintain both perspectives simultaneously?
This is a great contribution, Phya. If it holds up, it appears that one can successfully use TAK and TAA (Instant Shine) together for the continuity of the big picture AND the joy of the moment. It would be great for speeches, presentations and stage performances, where one needs to keep in mind the script and one’s location in it while maintaining contact with the audience in the present. And in so far as all the world is a stage, there are infinite applications.
Ideally one should hope to be able to apply the TAA-TAK combination on top of any other phero signature to gain the multiple perspective advantage in any given situation. Realistically, consciousness is a limited phenomena. I suspect there are places where dividing one’s attention would deprive oneself of necessary focus. I wonder what the limits of TAK-TAA are and where either TAK or TAA alone would be preferable.
