About the death of Stephen Hawking whose adult life was marked by a disease: Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis.
Biodecoding Paralysis of the Body — Emotional Conflicts
Beyond other causes, the Original Biological Decoding seeks to find the biological conflict that has left a trace and a need that cannot be satisfied. We will look at it in diseases whose result is paralysis.
Conflicts of not being able to move or not being able to escape: paralysis
The 1st Biological Law speaks of the fact that before a symptom an unexpected, dramatic biological conflict has been experienced, lived in solitude and that it has not been possible to express.
A biological conflict can be experienced by an embryo or fetus, baby, child or adult, and the content of the conflict determines the type of disease resulting. Despite the differences in terms of the symptoms expressed by each, what they have in common is the type of content that the conflict has.
Based on the fact that the global function of the central or peripheral nervous system that is related to muscle activity is to transmit information to be able to carry out the movements that are required to work or do actions such as:
- Grasping or pulling away with arms (upper limb, arms)
- Moving (lower extremity, legs), moving from a place (whole body) when a car approaches or when we have to move, turning parts to one side or another (head, spine)
- Carry a load on the shoulders or back, make fine gestures (hands)
- Stand upright (extensor and supporting muscles)
Among many other activities that we can do because there is a balance in the orders issued by the nervous system and the reception of them by the muscles.
Trapped without exit
The common conflictual denominator is the opposition in the movement that Gregory Bateson described so well. It is the conflict of wanting to go in one direction or do something and there is no chance of getting it right because all the orders are contradictory.
Wanting to move and not being able to, which in the end is the result of the disease itself. It is the famous “trapped with no way out”.
- Mom, can I go play? Yes son, but if you leave it’s because you don’t love me. And the child is blocked in his movement just when he was starting to walk to go enjoy something he wanted.
- Mom, can I go out on Friday night? Yes daughter, but remember that those who go out alone are whores. Let’s see what they think of us.
- Honey, on Thursday I’m going to the movies with my friends. Ah, I thought you wanted to be with me.
- I have to tell you something: I want to separate. Do what you want, but if you leave I’ll kill myself.
That is the game of I’m going-I’m not going in relationships in which the tug of war of freedom and respect is diluted under the shadow of love.
Examples of contrariety in movement
It is also what happens when someone wants to move, change countries, go to a place where they have better living conditions, raise their children in a safe place and once you arrive, the plan is aborted and they are deported. , they return him to his place, they crowd him into a refugee area and the whole drama begins again.
Escaping from war, fleeing from conflicts, leaving insecure places where people are raped or killed for power or ego, fleeing to save their lives, deserting, taking refuge in natural disasters is wanting to get out of the impossibility of moving easily through a territory. The experience is one of contrariety in movement.
Kidnapping, kidnapping, forcible retention or confinement, mistreatment, rape, misappropriation, confinement, isolation, forced detention, prison, “educational lockdowns” at school or home, accidents in which you have been trapped are cases of stopped movements in which there is no freedom to choose where to go.
Stephen Hawking
According to his biographers, there are relevant data to understand why he had Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis disease and at the risk of being completely wrong by not knowing the person, I apologize in advance if something bothers you and tell you that I do it with all my respect for the person.
I just want to take this well-known case to see what possible situations were decisive in the appearance of the disease.
Stephen William Hawking was the eldest son of Isabel Hawking, who studied Philosophy, Politics and Economics, and Frank Hawking, a biological researcher, dedicated to tropical medicine.
He also had two younger sisters, Philippa and Mary, and an adopted brother, Edward. Her parents met just at the start of the war and lived in Highgate, but as London was under air raid, Elizabeth, fearing what might happen during childbirth, went to Oxford to give birth.
The scientist was born on January 8, 1942 during World War II and towards the end of this a bomb fell a few steps from his house. It was a German V2 rocket that almost destroyed his home with him in it when he was 3 years old.
He studied and graduated in 1962, that is, at the age of 20, he had a degree in Physics from the University of Oxford where his father had studied. He wanted to study Mathematics, but his father preferred that he dedicate himself to Medicine.
How will he have resolved the family’s disappointment?
In October 1962 he began his postgraduate studies at Cambridge and applied to work with Fred Hoyle but he was denied tutoring, which in the long run was better for him but at the time it was a disappointment. He couldn’t go to the university he wanted.
In January 1963, while ice skating, he slipped and was diagnosed with neuromuscular degenerative disorder, or ALS. First his limbs were paralyzed and then his back to the point of depending on a wheelchair.
In 1985 he underwent a tracheotomy and lost his speech, but he never lost his strength to communicate. This tireless fighter said:
If you are disabled, focus on what you can do well and don’t regret what you can’t.
And so should we all. In 1965 while doing his doctorate he married Jane Wayline and they had 3 children.
PhD in Theoretical Physics
In 1966 and after obtaining the title of Doctor in Theoretical Physics, he began to study the origin of the universe. Hawking’s theories went against the current of scientific beliefs and there were many cases in which he had to courageously defend his ideas.
He has jokingly said: “Life would be tragic if it were not funny.”
Returning to the objective of the Original Biological Decoding, which is to search until finding the biological conflict that has left a trace and a need that cannot be satisfied, we ask about possible situations of movement discomfort:
- His pregnant mother decides to move out of central London because they were living with bombers during WW2. Imagine the stress of her mother during that period.
- During his early years he lives in a bombed-out city.
- When he was 3 years old, a bomb fell next to his house and the family was inside the family home.
- At the age of 21, he wants to do a postgraduate degree with Fred Hoyle, but they deny him the place. A short time later, at the beginning of January 1963, is when he was diagnosed with the disease.
I have left out some possible motion disturbance events in your life. What do you think they would be? You can share them in the comments below.
The upset movement, the trapped person with no way out, cornered, unable to go where one wants to go are actions that at first sight were present in his life and that can explain the neurological disorder he suffered.
He said: “Intelligence is the ability to adapt to change.”
Yes Mr. Hawking, illness is a form of resistance to change. To flow with life.
