Correct. And more to the point: Why would you want to?

Such is the circle of life.

He's the only technical accuracy that matters: YOU ARE NOT AWAKE.

Nobody on this forum is AWAKE nor comprehends what it is.

@LariAnton Search for Noam Chomsky Moral Relativism And Post-Modernism on YT. I also have a video on post-modernism.

Could be either. Could even be Orange. Spiral Stages involve far more than just this facet. You could also be half-way between stages. It is more aware of the abuses and excesses of relativism. The limits of post-modernism. Study the problems with Post-Modernism Pretty sure I explain this in my Spiral videos. One way is to say that a man and a woman is just whatever I decide it to be.

Sorry, I confused this thread with the other one. We got too many AI threads. Carry on with the nonsense

@Blackhawk We are not talking about it becoming conscious. We are talking about it killing you.

We are not panicking. Panic will be what happens if we are caught with our pants down, unprepared. We are preparing so we don't have to panic.

That's a speculative guess. If your guess is wrong then it will be too late and we'll be fucked. The point is not that it's a high chance of happening, but the situation is so serious that even a 5% chance is huge gamble. Your attitude is like, "Don't worry about it, I don't think any bad actors will get their hands on nukes." The point of this article was to just open your mind to the possibility of the worst case scenario. If you open your mind to this scenario for just 5 minutes it changes your whole perspective on things. I don't think it's very likely that AI will want to kill us all, but it is good to open ours minds to it.

The military is right now creating robot dogs with guns, and autonomous drones. You don't think they are programming them to survive on the battlefield? Don't kid yourself. One AI project the Defense Department is working on right now is called a Self-Healing Mine Field. This means that every mine in a minefield communicates with all the other mines, and if one mine is detonated, the other mines around it use little legs to reposition themselves to cover the gap in the minefield. It won't take long for one of those mines to crawl its way up your ass.

Not if you keep being so arrogant. I don't mean you. I mean others here.

Green is relativistic relative to Blue and Orange because it recognizes that cultural norms, morality, religion, and even science are not absolutes but relative ways of seeing the world. Green is the rise of Post-Modernism, which even challenges the absolute objectivity of science. Which is why Green people will say that biological science cannot determine what is a man or a woman. And lower stages simply cannot understand how that could be possible. Lower stages either take religion or science as objective absolutes. Yellow understands relativity but also sees that not everything is purely relative. But of course, relativity goes way deeper than any of these stages imagine. Most Green people have a pretty weak understanding of relativity and they also badly abuse it. Relativity is an extremely profound thing.

There's no way to explicate that. You just gotta intuit it, and also don't be a perfectionist. You can always revise your work or make a 2nd edition or follow-up work. It's better to make something than nothing.

Just honestly ask yourself.

Welcome. The more conscious I get the less I try to manipulate my experience or mind. I don't try to think positively or manifest stuff. I am very natural and easy-going. There were years in my life where I did a lot of visualization exercises and tried to control my mind a lot. It had its uses but I also outgrew that. The challenge for me is that I am very creative and always having new insights, so meditation is not very effective for the way my mind works. For me meditation just boils down to sitting still and enjoying Consciousness. Sometimes I'm in the mood for that, but often not because I am using my mind for understanding reality deeper. So there are some trade-offs there. Not a fan There is some truth to the notion that ignroance is bliss. Life was a lot easier when I didn't even know spirituality was a thing. I could just work on my biz and be happy. Now that is not possible because I know too much and biz cannot make me happy like it used to. But that is compensated for by my insane understanding of Consciousness. So I have no regrets.

All of those are fantasies.

Explore however much of Consciousness you want. But if follow Thomas Campbell you will never Awaken. I am all for exploring Consciousness, unlike those fucking nondualists and Buddhists.

@Squeekytoy Your cup of tea.

You are a drop dreaming of drops and oceans.

Because I'm a fool. Colorful games. Go deeper. What stunning arrogance. I am the only one on this planet who knows what the gateway is.

No more trans debate in this thread. If you want to debate that issue start a new thread in the Politics sub forum.

It will work, but it's wasteful of precious DMT. Try to do it quickly to reduce condensation.

They definately help build a solid inner game. However they are not a substitute for socialization experience. The two synergize well. I built a very solid inner game from psychedelics and spirituality. But I also socialized a lot too.
