Lina Rhemiss: Our Depths Unseen, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Our Depths Unseen is a collection of poetry that delves deep into the existential question of who we truly are. Conscious human beings or algorithms predetermined ? From the evolutionary aspects wired into our genome for survival, to the mechanics of our minds-each of us is uniquely carved by the experiences of our lives. Lina Rhemiss explores human nature through philosophical, psychological, and biological lenses, examining the hidden forces that drive us. This collection sparks awareness and challenges us to break free from primal instincts and societal conditioning.

With this awareness, Rhemiss seeks to help readers understand their design-an understanding often undermined, yet essential to unlocking our true potential. She highlights the fact that our brain doesn't define us; it's simply an organ wired for anxiety, an evolutionary survival trait that helped our species be wary of danger. This same brain now works tirelessly to keep us in our comfort zones, discouraging us from taking risks and growing beyond familiar boundaries.
By shedding light on these facts, Rhemiss inspires readers to reprogram their internal algorithms and strive to become the highest version of themselves. She calls on us to reach the full potential of our abilities, to take control of our own machinery, and to cultivate our consciousness.

"Our Depths Unseen" is unique collection covered by the magic of poetry embedded in each word.

The opening poems explore the inherent duality of life. Life's Pulse reflects the dynamic interplay between highs and lows, illustrating how joy and sorrow, ease and struggle, define the human experience. A Phantom Oasis examines our insatiable nature, chasing illusionary desires and failing to live in the present. Steps in the Sand emphasizes the journey through life and the importance of appreciating each step and recognizing the strength gained in the process.
As the collection progresses, it turns to the brain's role in shaping our behavior. The Science of Archeology of the Mind introduces evolutionary wiring and how genetic programming fuels our insatiable nature. Encoded Realities explores how upbringing, experiences, and environments create our subjective worlds. In The Brain is Not You, Rhemiss reminds us that our thoughts and feelings aren't entirely under our control-they're shaped by biochemical processes that often obscure our true selves.
Later chapters like Jungle Logic and Tunnel Vision unpack primal survival mechanisms that still govern us today, even in a world far removed from ancestral threats. Rhemiss critiques modern responses to anxiety and fear, urging us to break free from inherited psychological cages. In Social Instincts, the harmful effects of fear-driven behaviors like xenophobia and societal exclusion are examined, revealing how these instincts have stained our history. Take Control, or Be Controlled speaks to the brain's tendency to keep us in survival mode, discouraging risk and growth. Dopamine Glitch explores how the pursuit of instant gratification has hijacked our dopamine system, making us lazy and disconnected from true progress.
The final chapter, The Exit, confronts the consequences of neglecting self-awareness in a world full of distractions. Drawing from Descartes' "I think, therefore I am," Rhemiss challenges us to reconnect with our deeper consciousness, reclaim our autonomy, and rise above the societal and mental cages we create for ourselves.
