2. 第一自然性學的現實結構:從眾/認同
學,並非從理性開始;學,是人的第一根本天性,是生理性結構,是心理活動更前置的、底層的前提邏輯。學的存在,使得無需思考的「從眾/認同」需求成為必然,從眾/認同的生理性實施使得學有了具像得以顯像,從眾/認同的生理過程,就是心理活動的開始,是「學」「自我」與「嚮往」建立原型的開始。
嬰幼兒初期的學習機制,並不是建立在判斷對錯、價值取向中,而是建立在模仿現實樣本上,建立在生理與現實樣本發生的「從眾/認同」交互中。這裡的「模仿」本質上是無選擇的攝取或成為(對象),這裡的「現實樣本」也並非必須是「成功者」「避開威脅者」「能重複帶來安全感的行為者」;誰活下來了,誰被接納了,誰沒有被排除,誰的行為得到了回應,這些能够被觸發到的現實信號,先於思考、先於語言、先於邏輯、先於價值,這些先於意識被觸發的「從眾/認同」交互才是學的機制。狼孩就是極具意義的典型例子:先於意識的從眾/認同交互而建立起來的塑型,這種塑型在未來的成長過程中是不可逆,也是不可清除的(除非關機),這如同電腦系統底層的BIOS設定(這也是區域文化會如同DNA一樣頑固遺傳的原因,也是區域文化隔閡的本質:這不僅是想法的不同,更有「硬體佈線」的不同,例如這不僅是東西方人的想法不同,更重要的是思維的前置邏輯、腦結構的前置賦義不同)。
從眾與認同是生存導向的結構策略,從眾本身就是認同,認同本身也是從眾,從眾/認同的初始態是融入與成為,是與環境的「一體」而非區分。從眾/認同機制在這種同一性的交互中,才「學」會了「我」與「非我」的切割,進而,意識介入賦義、建模,使學在現實中運行、流淌,這當然不會是道德或缺陷。
意識圍繞從眾/認同的敘事正是心理敘事的根本所在。任何社會敘事,若無法提供穩定的認同機制,就無法形成持續的群體結構。在此,敘事首先回答的不是「你應該做什麼」,而是「你屬於哪裡」,這種敘事直接勾連了載體最原始、最底層的融入一一從眾/認同機制,讓載體在放棄自我邊界時,獲得一種原始的生理安全感。
宏大到神話、宗教、民族,渺小到家庭、個體,誰能講好「一體性」認同的故事,誰就具有第一凝聚力,成為服從的軸心,人類的硬體在懂得思考之前,就已經學會了服從敘事。(這也是人類會「慕強」一一學習強者、追隨強者、融入、成為強者,盲目崇拜強者的起因:具有生理性亲和的有意識的理性選擇)。
學習的本質從來都不應該被塑型成為「獲取知識」。載體學習是在找歸屬、認同,如果學校、家庭或社會不能提供「你屬於這裡」的認同敘事,那所謂的知識,在生理層面就是低效甚至排斥的。
2. The Real Structure of the First Natural Capacity: Learning — Conformity / Identification
Learning does not begin from rationality; learning is one of humanity's first fundamental natural capacities, a physiological structure, a more foundational and underlying prerequisite logic for psychological activity. The existence of learning makes the unthinking demand for “conformity/identification” inevitable. The physiological implementation of conformity/identification gives abstract learning concrete manifestation. The physiological process of conformity/identification is the beginning of psychological activity — the starting point for establishing prototypes of “learning,” “self,” and “aspiration.”
The learning mechanism in early infancy is not built on judging right/wrong or value orientation, but on imitating real samples — on physiological conformity/identification interactions with real samples. The essence of “imitation” here is choiceless uptake or becoming (the object). The “real samples” here do not have to be “successful ones,” “threat-avoiding ones,” or “behavior that repeatedly brings safety.” Who survived, who was accepted, who was not excluded, whose behavior received response — these triggerable real signals precede thought, precede language, precede logic, precede value. These pre-conscious conformity/identification interactions are the mechanism of learning. The feral child is a profoundly meaningful typical example: shaping through pre-conscious conformity/identification interactions. This shaping is irreversible and irremovable in future growth (unless powered off), akin to the BIOS settings at the bottom layer of a computer system. (This is also why regional cultures are inherited and stubbornly persistent like DNA, and why regional cultural barriers exist at their essence: This is not merely a divergence of ideas, but a divergence in “hardware wiring.” For example, it is not just that Eastern and Western individuals think differently; more crucially, the foundational logic of thinking and the pre-assigned meaning configurations in neural structure are fundamentally dissimilar.”)
Conformity and identification are survival-oriented structural strategies. Conformity itself is identification; identification itself is conformity. In their initial state, before boundaries form, conformity/identification can only manifest as integration and becoming — oneness with the environment rather than differentiation. Only through this unity interaction does the mechanism of conformity/identification “learn” the cutting of “I” and “not-I.” Subsequently, consciousness intervenes with meaning assignment and modeling, allowing learning to operate and flow in reality. This is of course neither a moral virtue nor a defect.
Narrative centered on conformity/identification is the fundamental essence of psychological narrative. Any social narrative that cannot provide a stable identification mechanism cannot form a sustained group structure. Here, narrative first answers not “what you should do,” but “where you belong.” This narrative directly connects to the carrier's most primordial and foundational integration — the conformity/identification mechanism — granting carriers a raw physiological sense of security when relinquishing self-boundaries.
From grand narratives like myths, religions, and nations to small ones like families and individuals — whoever tells the best story of “unity” identification holds the primary cohesion, becomes the axis of obedience. Humanity's hardware learns to obey narrative before it learns to think. (This is also the origin of why humans “admire the strong” — learning from the strong, following the strong, integrating with and becoming the strong, blindly worshipping the powerful: a conscious rational choice rooted in physiological affinity.)
Learning's essence should never be molded into “acquiring knowledge.” Carrier learning is fundamentally a search for belonging and identification. If school, family, or society cannot provide the identification narrative of “you belong here,” then so-called knowledge is inefficient or even rejected at the physiological level.
