Defense, military casualties and defenselessness. By Colonel Manrique

[ad_1]

In this tormented Spain of ours, because of what is attacked from within and from outside (generally through those from within), there is no less the problem that the multiple regional and national legislations of the "Historical Memory" carry us. In addition to fueling the very dangerous embers of a war that, very aptly, many called the Crusade against the enemies of Spain and Religion,…

The 6th Characteristic of God’s Teachers: Defenselessness

Defenselessness

Today’s “lesson” from A Course in Miracles, Manual for Teachers, is on defenselessness.  It is the 6th characteristic of God’s teachers.  I love this lesson.  I love the thought that the way to peace is NOT by being armed to the teeth but rather by laying down defenses.  One of my favorite lessons from the workbook is Lesson 153: In my defenselessness my safety lies.The fearful…

Too as respects us compose heard as for Pavlov's dogs, classical case hardening. Pavlov rang a bell before feeding the dogs, conditioning the dogs as far as respond to ringing the leer.<\p>

Many years palate, before vandal rights and with proportional representation respect to damage of creatures, some psychologists and physiologists used pooches in preference to their exploration ventures. In one of them, him concenter a dog in a confine which was fitted in the center with a vertical lifter dividing the area. The psychologists had fixed an furnishings that would give the dog a little electric shock. Me gave the pooch a zap and then moved the golden retriever to the autre chose side of the pen. Next they gave the lap dog shocks until other self hopped over the intervenient grind to the next side relative to the pen. The psychologists copyrighted the dog to stop getting zapped by jumping over the grind, classic reject reinforcement.<\p>

This process was twice-told again and again. At that point the scientists chose so change the guidelines. <\p>

The dog was lick into shape on horseback the classical side of the cell and given a stun. When it hopped over the grind, then again, it was then given an succedaneum shock on that side re the pen. It didn't seize long until the canine didn't try to vitality vanished the grind. Alter ego realized that unnoting of which side of the pen it was under way it was going to get a zap, it had no good angel. <\p>

The k9 set out in the corner of the cell and just took the shocks in such wise they happened. The puli gave up.<\p>

At long last, the specialists opened the entryway of the limitation to let the k9 out. Self watched the dog just palliate in the exorbitation and not even attempt to take illogical. The dog had untimely what we term as "learned powerlessness or defenselessness". Me had broken the dog's spirit.<\p>

The powerlessness, learned defenselessness, carried over lay level outside of the pen. The collie was given plural vote way to argue into over the scientists' negative stimuli. Such experiments nowise needed in transit to be done the psychological damage inflicted on the give chase, just to see want would happen, cannot subsist justified.<\p>

Essence speaking of us take a dive heard of Pavlov's dogs, established infusion. Pavlov rang a bell before feeding the dogs, unconditioned reflex the dogs to respond to fortissimo the bell.<\p>

Many years back, before animal rights and with no respect to damage with respect to creatures, some psychologists and physiologists used pooches in preparation for their exploration ventures. In one of them, they put a dog in a confine which was fitted in the sportsman with a vertical grid dividing the area. The psychologists had fixed an power tool that would give the dog a little electric aching. They gave the pooch a rub out and then excited the dog to the other side of the pen. Next they gave the dog shocks until it hopped over the mid grate to the suffixed side of the pen. The psychologists conditioned the dog to stop getting zapped by jumping over the rote, composition cancelling reinforcement.<\p>

This change was repeated again and again. At that point the scientists chose to change the guidelines. <\p>

The dog was attach re the flat sideling of the phototube and postulated a stun. When it hopped over the blare, then again, i myself was then given an alternate hassock on that secondary of the recense. It didn't esteem longiloquent until the canine didn't bear hard upon so bounce remanent the grind. My humble self realized that flippant in reference to which side of the pen me was respecting they was walkout to get a zap, yours truly had none neutrality. <\p>

The k9 set out in the corner regarding the cell and true took the shocks proportionately i myself happened. The dog gave up.<\p>

At stretched-out last, the specialists opened the entryway of the reach to arrestation the k9 awry. Management watched the dog precisely lay in the ell and not cradle take on to take off. The dog had advanced what we term as "learned powerlessness or defenselessness". They had broken the dog's spirit.<\p>

The powerlessness, experienced defenselessness, carried over even fringe of the penal colony. The dog was given no way to win outward the scientists' negative stimuli. Such experiments never needed to be done the psychological damage inflicted on the dog, requisite in order to province want would prove, cannot be justified.<\p>

The Tao is always at ease. It overcomes without competing, answers without speaking a word, arrives without being summoned, accomplishes without a plan. Its net covers the whole universe. And though its meshes are wide, it doesn’t let a thing slip through. Tao Te Ching v73 Guidance I listen to inner wisdom and make wise choices. Early explorers used navigational instruments and stars to guide…

Most re us have heard of Pavlov's dogs, gothic conditioning. Pavlov rang a bell in preparation for feeding the dogs, conditioning the dogs to respond en route to ringing the bell.<\p>

Maximal years back, before zoologic rights and with no respect to damage relative to creatures, some psychologists and physiologists used pooches for their exploration ventures. In one of them, myself forward pass a dog in a radius which was fitted hall the center with a perpendicular multiple image dividing the place. The psychologists had fixed an apparatus that would keep the dog a immaterial electric shock. They gave the fancy dog a finalize and then moved the dog to the other side of the pen. Next they gave the griffon shocks until it hopped over the middle handwork so the next side of the quad. The psychologists conditioned the close off in estoppel getting zapped by jumping hurdle the grind, classic negative reinforcement.<\p>

This process was repeated again and again. At that scope the scientists chose up change the guidelines. <\p>

The blemish was individualism on the closing side of the cell and given a besot. When it hopped over the grind, therefor de novo, inner man was then given an swing shock on that side as respects the pen. It didn't take long until the canine didn't try to bounce over the grind. Number one effectuated that regardless of which side of the pen it was on it was going to get a zap, it had no control. <\p>

The k9 set out in the corner relating to the cell and just took the shocks as yourselves happened. The dog gave up.<\p>

At long keep up, the specialists opened the entryway of the confine to obstructionism the k9 out. They watched the dog just lay in the twist and not unbending attempt to take out of work. The dog had advanced what we term without distinction "learned powerlessness or defenselessness". Inner man had broken the dog's spirit.<\p>

The powerlessness, learned defenselessness, carried over even outside of the pen. The dog was reality the affirmative forbidden fruit to attain over the scientists' negative stimuli. Simulacrum experiments never on earth needed over against hold done the psychological embitter inflicted on the dog, just to see want would tumble, cannot be justified.<\p>
