Do you experience frequent and repetitive drama in your close relationships? Do relatively insignificant disagreements often trigger violent arguments and emotional pain?

At the root of such experiences lie the basic egoic patterns: the need to be right and, of course, for someone else to be wrong; that is to say, identification with mental positions. There is also the egos need to be periodically in conflict with something or someone in order to strengthen its sense of separation between me and the other without which it cannot survive.

In addition, there is the accumulated emotional pain from the past that you and each human being carries within, both from your personal past as well as the collective pain of humanity that goes back a long, long time. This pain-body is an energy field within you that sporadically takes you over because it needs to experience more emotional pain for it to feed on and replenish itself. It will try to control your thinking and make it deeply negative. It loves your negative thoughts, since it resonates with their frequency and so can fed on them. It will also provoke negative emotional reactions in people close to you, especially your partner, in order to feed on the ensuing drama and emotional pain.

How can you free yourself from this deep-seated unconscious identification with pain that created so much misery in you life?

Become aware of it. Realize that it is not who you are, and recognize it for what it is: past pain. Witness it as it happens in your partner or in yourself. When your unconscious identification with it is broken, when you are able to observe it within yourself, you dont feed it anymore, and it will gradually lose its energy charge.

Human interaction can be hell. Or it can be a great spiritual practice.

Can we create cures faster?

I believe the answer is a definitive yes we can!

The bottleneck is the thousands of fiercely competitive pharmaceutical and device manufacturers inundating the clinical trial system which is governed by Institutional Review Boards or (IRB’s). Absent an electronic standard, IRB’s have resorted to the lowest common denominator of manual review of paper forms.

Expensive proprietary solutions have failed to achieve critical mass. Successful trials are indeed slowed by this inefficiency and failed trials are often neither identified early enough to minimize harmful, sometimes deadly, adverse events to patients nor timely ended to make way for new trials and, perhaps, the next major cure.

I know it is a big idea, but let’s forge an open approach project to facilitate the collaborative creation, peer-review, resourcing, execution and sharing of outcomes-based programs for global good.

Introducing CyberMedica

The CyberMedica Suite of software products is in the process of being designed in uml (http://uml.cybermedica.org/) to run on an application service provider platform as a software as a service offering.

In the creation of CyberMedica we have developed a comprehensive Systems Development Life Cycle (http://sdlc.cybermedica.org/) comprised of rights, roles, responsibilities, swim lane diagrams and project templates for all of the internal policies, processes and procedures including development and infrastructure engineering of the technology platform.

Additionally, delivery organization service level agreements and strategic customer centric product roadmaps have been documented and integrated to ISO levels of quality and process and peer-reviewed by EMC, Cisco, Oracle and Microsoft.

The Vision

A long held vision for equitable ethical democratization of technologies is what drives the culture embodied and envisioned in the CyberMedica Project.

Any and all of the missions, goals, programmes, policies, processes, procedures, developments, roadmaps shall be governed by the system itself ensuring collaboration, ethical decisioning, peer-review, outcomes based metrics and proactive transparency.

All participation shall be voluntary and as that of a sovereign individual. As such each and every contribution shall be attributed to that member. All rights for such contributions shall be considered shared with CyberMedica for commerce and free attribution share alike for the greater public good under the Creative Commons Non-Commercial Attribution Share Alike license and Science Commons approach.

To the extent that CyberMedica licenses contributed works for commercial purposes a mechanism shall exist to directly attribute the direct end-user value attributable to contributions of every sovereign and an equitable portion of such derived value as captured by license revenues shall be paid to the sovereign and his or her heirs in perpetuity.

It’s a corollary of Gresham’s law that bad investment drives out good. Suppose you’re thinking about investing in software or green tech or something else…. and suppose you know the government’s about to dump a lot of dumb money in the field, well then you don’t invest because someone who’s good at grants but probably not good at software or green tech or whatever is likely to wipe out the market for whatever you were going to invest in. If you’re going to invest at all, you try to figure out who’s going to get the government money and you put your money there. In other words, the smart money ends up front running the dumb money.
