I did think it might present as a false dichotomy (or could be viewed as such, depending in perspective and knowledge) Stupidity is so broad it could be a long format video in and of itself.

Leo - I want to know your thoughts on stupidity vs evil. Which do you consider worse? And why?

No Lue, YOU are the disinformation agent. You are what is wrong with the UFO community. You are why this topic is fucked. I don't trust him. Even less than I previously did.

Example of one of his contemplation meditations? Or book pages?

@AION It is okay

@AION Surprise!

Ralson's work can't be simplified, fed into AI and summarised. Reduced. It is arrogant to think we can grasp what he is saying this way. There are no shortcuts. Even one page of his Book of Not Knowing can be read, re-read. Over and over. More is received each reading. I particularly adore his passages on meditation / contemplation assignments. I still remain confused with him regarding Love. It's my biggest point of difference with him.

Hit this fucker with the industrial strength repellent.

🤣 Deceased 🤣

🤮

Fuck, it is so funny you posted this because I was reading about it last night. ...and one of my thoughts was "Now this guy is a real study in cult's and cult leaders" Have you seen his island cult shit?

Connection.

AI theft frenzy I appreciate this. I think many people who benefit from AI fail to recognise they have access to output with very little effort devoted to work or skill that is involved in producing original content. It is very easy to prompt and create and claim some AI generated output without any credit where it is due. Not only insubstantial credit - money where IP is involved. The value of AI-generated output is often mistaken for the value of the user's effort. Those are different things. AI is changing social perceptions of creative work.

This whole movement appears to be attempting to unlock the easymode of life. Float on through on the halo effect. Should we want life to be easy? What do we lose with this? Questions need attendance

@cetus Recognising what was being "stopped" was the big pivot point. I stopped how I was relating to certain feelings/emotions and thoughts (mind contractions) and I changed how I related to them. Slowly. Catching myself. Noticing. Practicing catching it. Over time it became a habit, and the effort going to awareness wasn't needed. So much mind-space, energy and clarity was gained because I was not contributing any energy to these old ways of relating. Life became substantially more effortless. I have no resistance to the quotidian nature of anything. It had nothing to do with attending to the suffering itself, or the feeling/thought/emotion. There is no stopping thoughts, feelings & emotions. There is only affecting how we relate to them. Once I was able to see how I was relating, I aimed to change the relationship. And I did. The shift has been permanent. I hope these words can help others as much as they did me, when understanding Ralston & their own relationship to their patterns. A true side effect; I feel emotions and feelings so much MORE. With more clarity. More compassion. Even thoughts are cleaner, clearer. With no energy being diverted into uselessness - life is effortless motion. There will always be suffering. Always. But a huge portion of it is self generated.
