We have often written on the universally important subject of the contemplative individual’s lifelong intimate conversation with his inner self. Over time, his empirically developing perception acquires a resonance with the subjective, but utilitarian, understanding of himself. The acquired persona functions to audit his thoughts and actions as perceived through the dynamics of his nuanced lens.
In his brilliant, but radically composed novel, “Ulysses,” James Joyce employs the then radical style and dynamics of “stream of consciousness.” In his unique form of literature, in contrast with the orthodox third-party recitation by the author, himself, or through his designated protagonist, employs the narration of the observing mind of the protagonist. Joyce’s revolutionary styler of authorship, analytically denominated as “stream of consciousness,” is descriptive of the relation of the protagonist’s inner intimate thought, akin to our relevant designation, the “private conversation with oneself.” As evinced by the novel, the process is revealed as an extensive, active process; the large-size, complex novel relates the protagonist’s actions and thoughts for merely one day.
It is relative to this natural inner dynamic relating to the blockage of the natural flow, or stream, of thought by the emotional impediment of uncontrolled and useless” perseveration.” The thematic term may be permissibly described as a persistent, repetitive concern, lacking a contemporaneous stimulus or presenting situation.
Common examples of the thematic temporal dynamic may be experienced in varying periods of uncontrollable thoughts or concerns, such as health and bodily function, finances, relationships, perceived capability, felt injustice, misunderstandings, or any personally nuanced form of perceived stress or challenge. Extreme and chronic presentation of this proclivity may appropriately reside in the jurisdiction of the appropriate need for professional assistance; as opposed to the contextual scope of the more moderate universal inclination to such intensively repetitious, phenomenon.
Preserverative thought is a cognitive process that involves the difficulty of disengaging from negative thoughts. It is an interruption in the natural flow of thought and action, notwithstanding the involuntary appearance of which requires cognitive curtailment, so that the affected individual may functionally return to his normal stream of unhampered consciousness. The onset and nuanced duration of the uncomfortable and repetitive dilemma, is involuntary and difficult, if not, temporarily impossible, to control.
The stream (of consciousness) needs to be diverted for the purposes of the continuance of its natural flow. We find it effective to make the necessary effort, as required to divert the flow to a different and attractive route of a personally desirable visual subject, such as one’s child or pet, to a recollected enjoyable past experience, or, perhaps, a desirable experience, In the absence of a suitable personal example, we would suggest the attractive image of being served a large slice of; the blueberry Italian Cheesecake; the applicable choice is completely optional
