The mysterious nature of time

[zenmaster]

I don't see 'living in the present' as less mental pattern and brain reliance. I see it as possessing the same fundamental mind and brain nuances that pertain to 3D life.

The unbalanced biases are perpetuated by patterning. That's how complexes are retained and their structure is refreshed, for example. We tend to identify with one aspect of self at the expense of the other. Being present is an awareness that does not hold onto dualities. The unbalanced biases are strong attractors towards dualistic perception - that is, the more unbalanced the stronger the perceived duality. It's just a thought filter. A nuance is not what I'd categorize as a strong attractor or even an unbalanced bias.
