Of course it's all temporary. Which doesn't make our limited time here any less valuable, rather the contrary.

But it's not about fighting against something, but about bringing something new into the world. It's about redefining what Humanity means.

I don't think so, because the other half would destroy it. Which is already the case. So all the the all-alone-in-a-room-all-day people should join together. It's not going to get better by watching the world burn to the ground.

Resonates deeply. Thanks for sharing.

Me too, in my own way. I'm creating an event that's about going through a musical journey together; a story about Life & Death, Truth & Love, Doom & Hope. An invitation to look at our darkest aspects & overcoming them by integrating our shadow individually & as a community that arises through those moments. It's a religious experience, but we all *know* that it's just a story. Which doesn't make it any less true. It will become alive through our collective effort. There are roles to play and everyone is invited to create their own character to play; an ideal to aspire to in real life. It's about Awakening as Humanity. Because I deeply believe that real change happens neither as merely part of a group, nor completely alone. To solve this paradox we have to synthesize a new way to interact with each other that integrates both individuality & the collective. Because Truth&Love always unites both sides of every opposite.

Well, he's more concrete than I am a lot of the time But I think the first priority has to be to create consciousness for those issues. This goes a lot deeper than geo-political stuff and discrimination. Collectively, we're still at the stage of denial.

It's our responsibility to find out how. With 'our' I mean everyone who is conscious enough to begin to see the predicament we've got ourselves into.

We're in for some rough awakenings as Humanity.

How?

But don't think you'd know what Truth is. Whatever you think you know is not the Truth. That's why this is so delicate and potentially misleading. Notice I don't say you shouldn't look for the Truth. I agree with it being the highest Value BESIDES LOVE(!!). Love can't be number 2. The whole approach of a numbered list is a very human way to think about it. @Leo Gura You said you can't have Love as the highest value because you don't know what Love is. That's true. But that doesn't mean you can just forget about Love and make Truth all-there-is. This is very delicate. You don't know what Love is but you don't know what Truth is, either! This doesn't mean I'm disagreeing with you, but it is (must be!) incomplete. This is where language must collapse.

Christ is alive & asleep. That story isn't finished yet. Nobody knows what happened after his death, except Himself.

The way to the Highest Heavens leads through the Deepest Hell. In fact the Highest Heavens ARE the Deepest Hell. It's a matter of perspective. But you have to go there to see for yourself. It ain't easy, I'll tell you that. But that's the pain of a God being born. The buddhist's solution to repudiate Life, for life would be suffering, is wrong. It's not about escaping the cycle of death & rebirth, it's about the Process of being BORN. True Hope lies in accepting what is instead of naively hoping for it to pass. It's a plunge into the deepest darkness without knowing where it'll lead. Until then it's an endless cycle of the same.

There are many layers to Eternity. Most of which not even God is aware of—because there are many layers to God as well.

Maybe our own dumbness will be what saves us from AI apocalypse in the end. It's quite hilarious.

Creating religions is the future. But it will be a collaborative effort instead of resulting in wars. It's a beautiful possibility. Forget game design. What about Religion Design? That's ART.

Thank you. Contains some genuine insight.

@Davino You can practice listening to rain. Because it's not about hearing what the rain has to say, but about dropping all concepts and opening your mind to the unpredictability of the raindrops.

You can't separate Melody, Structure (including Rhythm) & Harmony. But the Melody for sure is the Crown Jewel.

As I understand that would've gone beyond the scope of that episode, but it must be based on a lot of contemplation, which is a very intimate process. It becomes a burden by limiting your apparent possibilities in a given situation. As example you're not able to make easy money by selling AI slop or making Mr. Beast types of videos on YouTube. It's a burden in terms of what you can do to survive. Survival isn't your top priority anymore and that can be difficult to accept. You're ready to die for Truth, so to speak. Books and retreats don't *have* to be part of your process, but they probably are. Truth always leads to Love, because ultimately they are the same. But it won't be what your ego thinks it wants. Which means you have to be ready to be totally annihilated by Truth. You will love Truth because that's the only thing that truly matters. Everything else is deception and ultimately worthless in the face of Truth. You are God. You can of course choose to live as a normie and just live your life, but then you're really wasting your limited invaluable time here. You are God who's lost in the dream. Thus the only thing worthwhile is AWAKENING and helping others to do as well. Everything you think you know isn't the Truth. You can't ever know Truth as a concept, but only by becoming conscious of it. All concepts are ultimately self-deception. Especially when they are confused for Absolute Truths, which is kind of the default. So, drop all your concepts of what you think you know and become totally unknowing. Then you will see. Making concepts is necessary for communication, but you have to learn to drop them again and again, which can and will be difficult sometimes. Especially regarding the most beautiful ones. We are like painters of concepts, artists able to produce amazing pieces of art. But by confusing our ideas for the Truth they become stale and ugly very quickly, which is what happened time and time again. Science produced a lot of beauty in the past, but it got ugly by holding onto it for too long. Beauty is something that has to come from Being Alive. We've just been not intelligent enough to see that yet. As soon as we try to *own* it, it dies and withers. The same goes for all ideas, concepts & beliefs about Reality. Being Alive means you have to be ready to completely Die again and again. That's the only path that leads to Beauty. Death = Beauty = Love = Truth. Then, and only then, can we begin to appreciate what's being offered to us by Life. We've been living Life all wrong up to now, which is why the world looks like it looks right now.

I love your humour.

Exciting!

WE are God. We are One.
