PART 2: HOW THE HUMAN MIND-SET & DECISION-MAKING WORKS

2.4...THE HUMAN RESPONSE MECHANISM
There are 4 parts in the whole decision-making process - the body, the heart, the soul and the spirit. Without going into a detailed explanation of the process, most of the human response mechanism centres on the first three areas:

• 1...the body which is the physical touch and response process


• 2...the heart which is the emotional touch and response process and


• 3...the soul which is the mind or intelligence touch and response process


• 4...the spirit which is the spiritual touch and response process is seldom touched deeply except where it invokes deep emotional responses, anger, unforgiveness & sexual acts and ties. Why is the sexual area connoted in this area? It is because sex permeates every part of our being and it is embedded in the spirit of the person.

It is when the spirit part is touched that there are really deep registrations of imprint and it is difficult to break out of such 'ties' that touch the spirit. Men who have strayed into this area must first understand the workings of the spiritual touch and response process to have any chance to come out of the situation.

2.5...INFIDELITY TOUCHES DEEP INTO THE SPIRIT REALM
Infidelity reaches well beyond the first three areas of the human response mechanism. It carries the bodily sensation of satisfaction; it reaches well into the emotional highs of the heart and it goes deep into the inner recesses of the mind. Sexual feelings under the umbrella of illicit relationships also touches straight into the spirit of the people involved and this is the reason why the sexual union of illicit relationships is so severely addictive. It is a feeling that encompasses the whole being and it is hard to break free from such a feeling when entered into.

2.6...THE PERCEIVED IRRELEVANCE OF CONSEQUENCES WITH PLEASURE
Caution is usually thrown to the winds where great pleasure awaits. Once tasted, the pleasures of stolen waters becomes seemingly sweeter with the passing of each tryst and this continues so long as the joys of unbridled sex carries no implications of responsibilities. Once ownership is demanded by one of the two parties involved, the whole fabric of unencumbered pleasure would be called into question. But the pleasures of such thrills and excitement continues for great lengths of time because of the grip of the spirit. The unfortunate part is that it is really hard to let go.......
