Wizard of Oz syndrome is where someone or some institutional body presents itself as more knowing and powerful than it in fact is - so as to receive or assert a self inflation under wishful thinking to which fear appeals for help as if to a true authority.
In presuming that experts already know, we undermine our own process of discovering that involves active responsibility for listening for prompts and guidance on which to act - or indeed refrain from acting. We know more than we know we know or allow ourself to own - by dint of association of knowing with self-inflation that throws out the baby with the bathwater because the wordless or formless sense of life has no place in the model of a top down or outside-in sense of definition, prediction and control.
The ability to 'know' an awful lot about a very little is the curse of specialisation - along with the self-protective defence of such identifications as each specialisation. Such is the human condition in terms of exclusive focus or 'private minds' structured in forms of self-reinforcement against naked truth.
Unreal expectations structure unreal relationships. But in our current world the desire and expectation FOR a real relationship seems to be off the charts and checkboxes of 'healthcare' (sic), excepting the good health or fortune of finding such a willingness for mutual respect.
Passing off as an authority beyond our station is a way of setting up pride before a fall or perhaps a 'heart attack' or some other fuse flowing. But the inverse pride runs a self-demeaning narrative that reminds me of a Dylan lyric in which the heart attack machine is strapped onto the shoulders of those who know more than they do. (Desolation Row).
I see there is a child of life seeking to 'come out' from the prison of a lovelessly structured existence - which in larger terms could be seen as new perspectives meeting the same old denials. Its easier to see it in others than ourself - but crisis - including illness - can be a way of getting our attention to give it to the Field of Relation - instead of a dalek's eye view of a mind locked into a defensive impermeability.
Officially settled consensual germ theory focuses on alleged pathogen as a way of ignoring or disregarding the field. The field of knowing is our relational being and aligning in it is aligning in health instead of in imaged and defended models of what thinking says it is supposed to be or contrives to make it seem to be.
Regardless the terms I use, it remains possible to align within an integrity or integrative sense of self and world - or to align against it, beneath the presentation of 'emperor's new clothes' or fig leaf thinking by which to cover our nakedness from a feared truth.
And so 'I don't know' or 'I cant do it' becomes a simple self-honesty of pause from struggle that opens to listen for that which does know, and reveals itself by recognisable fruits. The ability to discern or recognize health is innate - while the setting up of rules that must be met or complied with to meet a definition of health is an artificial construct.
