Human Beings are Products of Genetic and Environmental Programming



A Human being is a Composite Product of One's Genetic Programming + One's Environmental Programming.

This programming determines one's State of Mind or How we Are.

Our State of Mind  determines Our Thoughts.

Our Thoughts determine our Words and Actions.

Our Thoughts/Words/Actions make up our Response to the Events in our life and our Response to the People in those events.

Our Reponse to the events in our life and our Response to the People in those events are not the end of the story.  There is a Consequence to that Response.  The Response is in the Present.  The Consequence comes in the Future.  When, we may never know.

Can we then safely conceptualize that our Thoughts/Words/Actions determine the Events in our Future, albeit our Future itself.

But these Thoughts/Words/Actions depend upon one's State of Mind at any given time.
But then again, One's State of Mind depends on the Genetic Software that one has inherited and the Environmental Programming that one has accumulated.

Can human beings Reprogram this Software?

Environmental Programming

A human being's entire life experience is the experience of the outside world.


The five sense organs of a human being are the windows to the outside Universe.

What u perceive outside your self are all the impressions that the windows of your eyes, ears, nose, mouth, and nerve endings on your skin gather 24x7x365.

Your body with your brain is gathering this data through your five senses at a phenomenal rate and speed both consciously and unconsciously without even you being aware of it.

It is gathering data and processing it even when you are sleeping.

For example, many a times one is physically there but mentally somewhere else, even in those moments, the body with the brain is gathering data and u are not even aware about it.

The body with the brain is also gathering data even while you are asleep, every cell in the body is alive, awake, and transacting with the outside world.

This accumulation of data from the outside world starts right from the point of conception in the human womb.

All that your Female Parent saw, heard, smelt, tasted, felt have seeped into you in those nine months and the data is stored. 

This data accumulation continues once you emerge out of the womb.

The doctors, the nurses, the relatives in the hospital where u land, then the people at home, the air, the food, the people outside the home, the television, the surroundings that u visit, the playschool, nursery, kindergarten, primary school, the teachers, the classmates, friends, playmates, the television, the advertisements, the serials/soaps, the movies, the data in textbooks, the smartphone, social media, the places u visit, vacations, the newspapers, books, movies, data on the internet, the glamour world peers, rock stars, movie stars, celebrities, world leaders, achievers, college life, again new friends and teachers, the situations that come one after the other throughout your life, the people in those situations, the people missing in those situations, the emotions attached to the situations, the trauma, if you are in a conflict zone, death, injury, homelessness, poverty, etc, name it and u are soaking data.


All this external data that you accummulate forms the basis for your Environmental Programming.

What it means is that every human being is constantly being programmed by the External Environment.


This Environmental Program makes Human beings think speak act out the way they do.

There is little choice.

Most human beings react to external situations depending on their State of Mind at that point in time and this State of Mind depends partly on the kind of Environmental Programming that has happened.




A simple example:

No offence meant, but people who grow up environmentally in slums or downmarket locations.
Generally how do they think speak act.
There may be minuscule exceptions but that is not the rule.

People who environmentally grow up in a very religious orthodox or cult environment.
Generally how do they think speak act.
There may be minuscule exceptions but that is not the rule.

People in middle class environments in apartments, condos, who live the routine regular school, college, job, home loan, EMI life.
Generally how do they think speak act.
There may be minuscule exceptions but that is not the rule...

People who grow up in super luxury environments.
Generally how do they think, speak, act.
There may be minuscule exceptions but that is not the rule.

People who grown up in violent conflict zones or closed societies.
Generally how do they think, speak, act.
There may be minuscule exceptions but that is not the rule.

People who live in so called Progressive Libeal nations.

People who live in so called Developing Nations.

People who live in so called Underdeveloped Nations.

People who still live isolated in forests and mountains and islands.

Generally after watching a television program or a movie or a game or a religious discourse or a political speech, how do people behave for some time.

This is just a simple example.
There are a zillion complex factors that go into this programming....

______________________________________________________________________________

There is another Programming called Genetic Programming.


This is the genetic material that one gets from ones parent's.  23 chromosomes each from one parent to make 46 chromosomes.

46 sounds like a very small figure.  But every cell (there are zillions of them) in your body has them.

These 46 chromosomes are made of genes and each gene is made of zillions of DNA and the entire DNA in a human body is so so so large in quantity, that if you lay it out end to end, it could extend from one end of the Universe to the other end, if there is a beginning and an end.

So now u get an idea of how much information Human DNA can have....

This is just like the data that is stored in silicon chips in computers.
Silicon is an inorganic atom.
DNA is an organic molecule.


In the near future scientists will be able to store data on DNA molecules much more efficiently and in greater quantities than a silicon chip, even in a water molecule.



A human being comes with phenomenal amount of information stored in his/her DNA that one inherited from both biological parents.


All this information determines your physical, mental, emotional, social, economical  characteristics as well as every single event and experience in your life every millisecond to millisecond from the Point of Conception to Dissolution (death).


It determines the nature of the events that u experience, the kind of people in those events, the stimulus that these events and the people in those events create, and also your response to those situations.

In all Probability, your genetic programming carries information about the entire Universe and all its constituents including all information about yourself right from beginning to the end if there is a beginning and end.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


So, a human being  is a composite product of 

GENETIC PROGRAMMING + ENVIRONMENTAL PROGRAMMING.

In simple terms a human being comes with a physical body made up of cellular stuff which carries Information and Software Preloaded.

This is just like how ur computers/Tablets/Smartphones come preloaded with an Operating System and other Softwares now popularly called Apps.
This Software is the Genetic Programming and the Environmental Programming begins as one is conceived.

This data is constantly being written, modified?, rewritten?, overwritten?????

HUMAN BEINGS FUNCTION MOST OF THEIR LIVES ON AUTOPILOT


Every night when you go to bed and lie down on your back, relaxed
Take calm relaxed breaths through your nose (not the mouth)
Watch your breath for a minute
Take a flashback of the day's Events and Experiences from the Moment you woke up in the Morning until the Present Moment
Watch it like a Movie, the actors being You, People and other Objects in the Day's Events
Watch it as if you were the audience now.

Are u experiencing and responding to the events of the day independently, consciously or are you doing so automatically.

With most of the events of the day and our lives, Human Beings just function in AUTOPILOT mode, mechanically.

What does this mean?

Are Human beings not experiencing and living their lives as a consequence of their GENETIC AND ENVIRONMENTAL PROGRAMMING?

______________________________________________________________________________



STATE OF MIND

The way we experience and respond to situations, events, and the living beings and objects in those situations and events is dependent on our STATE OF MIND at that moment.

Our state of mind is just a consequence of thoughts in our mind and vice versa - which in turn is the consequence of the software and data that we have inherited and the data that we gather as we navigate through life.

Our thoughts are an output of our Genetic and Environmental Programming.



THUS THE STATE OF MIND OF A HUMAN BEING IS IN TURN A DIRECT OUTPUT OF THE HUMAN BEING'S GENETIC AND ENVIRONMENTAL PROGRAMMING.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

All of us have a basic State of Mind as a backdrop.
We are introverts or extroverts or something in between.
We are loners or very social or in between.
We are humble or egoistic or something in between.
We are joyful or sorrowful or something in between, etc.
These are just examples.

From moment to moment, against this backdrop we have a state of mind that changes as we move from event to event, situation to situation throughout our lives.

Ultimately, it is our state of mind that governs how we respond to these living beings, objects, situations.

HOW WE RESPOND TO SITUATIONS OR EVENTS NOW
 (READ CAREFULLY)
 HOW WE RESPOND TO SITUATIONS OR EVENTS NOW
 DETERMINES THE CONSEQUENCES OR SITUATIONS OR EVENTS  THAT WILL COME IN THE NEAR OR DISTANT FUTURE,
OR WHENEVER, WE HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWING.

IN SIMPLE WORDS HOW WE ACCEPT OUR PRESENT SITUATIONS
AND 
HOWE WE RESPOND TO OUR PRESENT SITUATIONS AND EVENTS
 WILL DETERMINE OUR FUTURE SITUATIONS AND EVENTS.

EVERY MOMENT WE ARE CREATING OUR FUTURE
OUR SO CALLED DESTINY


_______________________________________________________________________________

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?
To Recap:
1.  We are programmed genetically and environmentally.
2.  This Program determines our Thoughts.
3.  These Thoughts determine our State of Mind and vice versa.
4.  Our State of Mind determines our Words or Actions or the way we Accept and Respond to Situations.
5.  The way we Accept and Respond to situations NOW determines the consequences of this Response (i.e., OUR FUTURE SITUATIONS/EVENTS).
6.  Our Future Situations/Events are determined by our Present Thoughts, Words, and Actions.
7.  Our Present Situations are determined by our Past Thoughts, Words, and Actions.
8.  Our Past Situations were determined by our Thoughts, Words, and Actions before that Past.


DOES THIS MEAN THAT EVERYTHING IS PREDETERMINED OR DESTINED OR WRITTEN?

BECAUSE:
1.  IF OUR PRESENT SITUATIONS ARE A CONSEQUENCE OF THE PAST, THEN WE DO NOT HAVE CONTROL OVER IT NOW since it is a consequence of our past thoughts, words, and actions and no human being can have control over his past.

2.  ALSO HOW WE EXPERIENCE AND RESPOND TO OUR PRESENT SITUATIONS IS DETERMINED BY OUR THOUGHTS and STATE OF MIND NOW, which in turn is a result of our genetic and environmental programming.

3.  AND IF HOW WE EXPERIENCE AND RESPOND TO OUR PRESENT SITUATIONS DETERMINES OUR FUTURE, then logically this means our future also depends on our genetic and environmental programming.


Every moment we are creating our Destiny.


Whatever happend to Free Will?
There is a Concept:

1.  Human beings can try and overwrite their genetic programming in tune with the future that they desire.


If we are in Absolute Awareness of what we are and what we have.
If we are in Absolute Acceptance of what we are and what we have.
If we respond to what we are and what we have in Absolute Awakening and with an Independent Intent and manage our thoughts, words and actions that is in tune with the future that we desire.

2.  Human beings can try to and overwrite their environmental programming in tune with the future they desire.


If we are in Absolute Awareness of the environment around us.
If we are in Absolute Acceptance of the environment around us.
If we respond to the environment around us in Absolute Awakening and with an Independent Intent and consciously manage the data that we gather from this environment or even consciously seek an environment in tune with the future that we desire.

3.  Human beings can try and manage their Thoughts>State of Mind>Genetic and Environmental Programming, and manage the way they accept and respond to situations in tune with the kind of consequences they desire from such situations so that they can create the future that they desire.


If we are in Absolute Awareness of the situation we are in.
If we are in Absolute Acceptance of the situation we are in.
If we respond to the situation in Absolute Awakening and with an Independent Intent.

The basic basic concept is about Managing your Thoughts 24x7x365.

We could try.
We just need a Process.
