Nature went one way, Civilization another

Try to figure out which is the Natural you, the 7 M year old processor, and the New you, the civilized you, the 250,000 years young frontal lobe organizer and new cortex information retriever and synthetic collage maker.

The mind works by maps in front of our inner eyes, maybe 18. Fast, careful to many details: reality is maintained by checking the maps constantly, for the 7 M year old you.  The maps have a 6 x 6 nature, 6 subconscious elements for the bigger things, and 6 subconscious elements for the items contained within the large picture. Example is room, angles of the corners and door, for a chair the legs and seat. We quickly checklist about 3 parts of the overall design of reality quickly, them proceed, assuming "is all good."
 

Both systems, by being systems, are subject to the debits and credits of accounting. In a very strange way this is related to the situation in the scientific explanation of friction, more on that later. 

Some say that civilization went too far and created tame domesticates; can you remove the yoke of civilization from your emotional brain? Can that alien brain lock be released, if only for a little.
