  1. Every communication nowadays needs to be, This is what AI says: This however is my unique insight and direct experience which took place when I got up last Tuesday: If I can't add to the blurb of AI, in 2025 I have NO BUSINESS communicating. People on forums, socials and reddit are just wasting my time when not doing this. 99% of the words spun today are unnecessary drivel. Adjust your life accordingly.
  2. Definitely gatekeep who gets your presence. More importantly for me, limit the hours that ANYONE gets my presence. One hour the norm, 4 hours the tops. Don't go with the flow. Have a plan and don't deviate. In general give people latitude and grace to do what the hell they want. I am just as much an idiot and a train-wreck as much as the next. Just don't let others contaminate your life. Being with others is a sacrifice but also a sacrament. Truth is I need everyone to wake myself up. If one person is excluded I am keeping myself in hell. Everyone is cool and doing what they can and what they must.
  3. Ego is a fragile frightened flawed thought system that generates the future by mimicking the past on its lonesome path to death and therefore has no true free will. Almost everyone believes they are an ego and have no choice in that. There is another way available and this is the only free will.
  4. Another book on LSD tripping and insights, with a free pdf version available https://www.reddit.com/r/RationalPsychonaut/comments/1kkq2w4/my_7year_project_writing_a_philosophical_memoir/
  5. Everyone I meet is practice for no longer jumping to judgement. Living with someone is the greatest test of that. Seeing them through eyes of innocence and kinship. We are all here for the same purpose, to wake up. We are all different but we're all the same. Another person at close quarters is a necessary mirror and motivator. Everything here is a barrier or it is a blessing if seen right. Everything and everyone is the divine in totality. Grace and glory all around.
  6. Glad it jibes with you. Another thing I remember is: if you want to be smart learn something every day. If you want to be wise lose something every day. Truth is more about about removing the false. False means interpretation. If I look absent interpretation, I see what is.
  7. Be unknowing and be unknown Don't come along tomorrow and say damn I get it now (become knowing) and all you fools need to hear the truth (become known) Truth is wordless, pathless, effortless Maybe one pointer is, if you want to know me then come live with me (to see how full of shit I am or not perhaps)
  8. I am awake to the degree I can latch onto God in all the physical fragments around me. Doing thus with a person I encounter sparks an instant of holiness where each sees the God in one another and deepens awakening in both. Words or knowing who they are isn't required.
  9. I would say peace is knowing what you are and abiding as what you are. I suppose even in the hurly-burly of life where conflict and chaos are assailing one, it's possible to remain thus. It's more advanced and needs more practice. It's aligning with the divine perspective. How this is, can be understood. The world may or may not improve as a result (and in any case that is irrelevant) but life is immensely richer and more fulfilling. It's akin to getting an upgrade on a plane journey instead of traveling cattle class and getting embroiled in that soap opera.
  10. The greatest self deception is telling people about their lives. It is but an appeal for validation. The greatest dishonesty is not telling people about your life. It is but a cover for guilt, shame and fear. Can I get a witness?
  11. Can you throw in free scooter pick up? Might make this a life purpose.
  12. It's inferior. You suffer, you struggle, you eventually suffocate and spew profanity that God has forsaken you to the grave. That is sheer mental illness. Stillness, peace, truth, ... haven't opposites. They are absolute and the Absolute's attributes if you will. Peace isn't the absence of war but the overlooking of pain. What you call opening up is only possible once peace is arrived at. Peace is perfect acceptance and unruffled non-reactivity. The changeless can't include the changeful. They are mutually exclusive and exhaustive. God of course can imagine change but it is just a playful afternoon nap.
  13. God-realised is seeing everyone as God-realised. Nobody ever made a mistake. Least of all god.
  14. Business is I get rich. Politics I get rich while you get poor. Win-win.
  15. Survival is only needed within the illusion of separation. The ego appears real in this framework because body and world appear real, but this “reality” is conditioned and provisional. It points out in ACIM: Nothing real can be threatened, and nothing unreal exists. Ego however is part of the construct that appears necessary for survival only because we’ve mistaken ourselves for a body. In truth, survival isn’t a requirement - because being is eternal and untouched by death. This is correct because within the dream, separation is indeed experienced as a kind of temporary reality. But it's important to distinguish between "experiential appearance" and "ultimate reality." Spirituality calls it a dream not to deny its felt reality, but to encourage us to question its ontological status. In this frame, separation has no lasting existence or foundational truth; it only seems real until it is seen through. The ego is not conscious like a self-aware agent; it's more like an inert thought system founded on fear. Its function is to defend against the truth and not because it knows the truth, but because its entire "identity" depends on keeping the illusion going. Death is part of the illusion and it’s the ego’s proof that separation must be real. But true being never dies, and so the ego’s obsession with survival is nothing but a cunning distraction from eternal life. God entertains a thought of separation from itself and thereby dreams the dream of separation. The dream is the world of perception, time, bodies, and duality. Awakening is to remember our identity as God - unchanged, eternal, and one with the whole. And it is not a personal awakening, but a relinquishment of personal identity. So yes, what is is being awake: pure awareness, or what you call "the boundless background." The simulation is not deliberate in a conscious sense. It’s more like a defense mechanism that arises from guilt and fear in the mind that believes it has separated from God (from wholeness). The ego "simulates" creation by making a substitute reality - a world of form that reflects fragmentation and lack rather than wholeness and love. It’s not an action of a malevolent agent, but the inevitable result of believing in separation. Because stillness, wholeness, and peace threaten the ego's existence. The ego is but a defense against the quiet truth of oneness. If the mind fully rests in stillness, the ego dissolves. So it distracts us with constant motion, judgment, attack, and form—all to prevent us from turning inward and remembering what we are. The ego is indeed well-adapted within its system. It is consistent and self-reinforcing. But the "concrete frame" it works within is itself part of the illusion. Its efficiency doesn’t prove truth - only internal coherence. Like a dream that makes sense while dreaming, the ego’s logic breaks down when exposed to the light of truth. You are making a rich and nuanced metaphysical point. From my standpoint, form and fluctuation are appearances, not Reality with a capital R. They are not denied as experiences, but they are not eternal. I claim that only what is changeless and unopposed is real. That means form is symbolic and temporary, while truth is formless and eternal. - AI (ably assisted by gettoefl)
  16. Near universal tendency in my world. Though your mileage can of course vary. And I never said government should enforce it.
  17. Motherhood is the willingness to take a bullet for your child. You place the child's interests above your own. Whether in the womb or in the world
  18. Most illuminating. I asked AI to rework this in a more spiritual-slanting framework:
  19. Materialism has one goal, to make a better tomorrow. Religion has one goal, to make a better yesterday. Everyone is seeking a savior through one or both. Thinking transactionally instead of transcendentally. You are the one you have been waiting for.
  20. Mind is big. Human only uses a tiny part as its thought system. The highest thought is, I must survive. Problem is that the I that must survive is not who one is and one is in fact near powerless to influence that one. This limits love. The highest thought of mind is, All I see is me. To treat you as me is love.
  21. God is simple, childish, playful, silly and without agendas or opinions. And the smart, intellectual, resourceful, strategic, hot-shot is the devil. Moreover only the uneducated can be honest. All learning is merely trying to survive better, to improve ones nest. Learning is the opposite of loving. The gettoefl rule of thumb: If it's not easy elegant effortless, it's not God. Give me the one who knows nothing going nowhere. Harsh truth is, I am happy being the dumbest person I know. And I am. The depths of my stupidity will fill the library of Alexandria haha.
  22. All the s-words mean the same thing: suffering, separation, survival, self, sin, sacrifice, specialness, sex ... Is language cool? I should write a book, another means to keep me dope in this garden of Eden hell realm.
  23. To win in the world means another does lose. Corruption, in this dream of separation, is the price of admission. Perhaps God lowers Its consciousness not out of any ill intent but to sample what it means to hunger, to build, to delight and then to see Its beautiful self looking back at itself in the mirror of life.
  24. Awakening is change of state; Enlightenment is change of identity from nothing to everything where nothing is the last awakening.
