FYI - The metaphorical elephant in the elephant in the brain is a big thing we don't talk about. It actually has nothing to with Haidt's (?) elephant and the rider metaphor, I believe. May want to amend your intro.

Another great piece, thank you. Your ideas on deep laziness and centering have been heavily on my mind lately. Have come across the paper "Natural and social order at Walt Disney World"? I draw some parallels between your works and this section: http://ross.mayfirst.org/files/natural-social-order-at-disney2_0.pdf …pic.twitter.com/hkDb55ajxG

kabbalah uses a similar metaphor to the owner-dog, distinguishing between two parts of the soul: a plan making רוח (ruach, "spirit") and a lazy נפש (nefesh, "life-soul")

what's interesting is how they relate this concept to reincarnation: the רוח gets reincarnated, paired with a new נפש in each גלגול (cycle) for the purpose of repairing and improving it

kind of a tangent, but a more general way of thinking about this that includes dualism as a special case would be a near/far distinction, measured from where the locus of consciousness currently is in mindspace

idea is, most of the brain is thinking most of the time and the locus of consciousness (usually there's one or zero) is somewhere in there but moves around
