The ego is a holon at least as a thought-form. Thoughts are holons, patterns of information that are parts of the mind. And even though all minds are connected, the ego is only confined to the individual person. My ego and for example Donald Trump's ego are separate in experience although connected at the fundamental level of reality.

This observation of the ego as an isolated holon makes it possible to assume that there is a next evolutionary level for humanity which is a much larger holon that is all of humanity as one mind, just as Bruce Lipton and Peter Russell have talked about (also the noosphere is a similar concept).

And then it becomes clear why the personal ego needs to dissolve, because it blocks access to the larger holon. At the same time we cannot break out of our individual egos until the possibility of connecting the larger collective holon exists.

I believe that we have reached a high enough individual ego development in history where the larger collective holon becomes possible. I also believe that evolution is an automatic process so the popping out of our individual egos and into the larger collective planetary consciousness will happen spontaneously when we have reached a high enough level of personal and collective development.

I believe things such as human-made climate change crisis and coronavirus crisis are staged hoaxes for political manipulation purposes, but the economic growth model in recent history is unsustainable I think, so there needs to be some kind of shift into a more sustainable civilization. In this new video Deepak Chopra and Sadhguru talk about the planetary change that is necessary:

And a truly conscious planet I believe means that we become Gaia, planet earth as a whole as a conscious being instead of remaining trapped in separate personal egos.

What the western powers such as the U.S. and Europe lack today is the massively integrated information structure China is developing. For example one expert said that a huge number of small companies in China are being connected through cloud computing in a way that makes them very much on equal footing with the bigger corporations. And that's just a small example. The e-yuan is another example of the systemic level of information infrastructure China is developing.

And internationally, China is expanding through business deals, such as the Belt and Road Initiative:

Quote

"The Belt and Road Initiative (BRI, or B&R[1]), formerly known as One Belt One Road (OBOR) (Chinese: 一带一路), is a global infrastructure development strategy adopted by the Chinese government in 2013 to invest in nearly 70 countries and international organizations.[2][3]" - Wikipedia

I haven't looked into that much yet but one idea I have is that BRI will include an expansion of the Chinese information infrastructure and not just of the traditional style of business deals and development.

When it comes to U.S. vs China there are actually three parts involved which are the governments and also the big corporations. I believe that the Chinese government has very much control over Huawei. In the U.S. I think it's mostly the intel agencies that are connected to the big tech companies, and that's for national security reasons rather than for business reasons.

There will be some complicated development globally involving both governments and the private sector. And it will involve basically all governments around the world and most of the big corporations and also the private banking sector plus the central banks (+IMF/BIS/UN etc).

QAnon has this new post:

My guess is that it's about the Durham report. Trump needs a Spygate scandal to start before the election. My hope is that Durham's report will be released in August. And I predict that it will show DNC corruption instead of FBI/DOJ corruption.

I like to sometimes examine ideas outside the box. Because even experts may be wrong, so to only learn from authorities is a limitation.

One idea I'm testing is if spiritual enlightenment starts with the physical body instead of in the mind! Almost always spiritual teachings talk about the mind becoming enlightened while the body gets cancer and dies basically, haha. Sorry, not so funny, but it's almost funny how schizoid such teachings are when looking at physical and mental reality as being one reality.

Quote

"You have displaced your guilt to your body from your mind. 6 Yet a body cannot be guilty, for it can do nothing of itself. 7 You who think you hate your body deceive yourself. 8 You hate your mind, for guilt has entered into it, and it would remain separate from your brother's, which it cannot do.

Minds are joined; bodies are not. 2 Only by assigning to the mind the properties of the body does separation seem to be possible. 3 And it is mind that seems to be fragmented and private and alone. 4 Its guilt, which keeps it separate, is projected to the body, which suffers and dies because it is attacked to hold the separation in the mind, and let it not know its Identity." - ACIM T-18.VI

In this video Brad Johnson is channeling Adronis, and although I don't believe time can be bent which seems to be woo woo to me, Adronis said that an eternal physical body is possible. So that's actually a different teaching than most other spiritual teachings. Adronis also said that planet Venus is like Earth and that it's cloaked. That I think may be true too.

Andrew Yang now wants a pretty big universal basic income (UBI). Earlier I think he said $1,000 per month, now he says $2,000. And he talks in this video about how that's possible to implement:

I think a UBI should be unconditional and given to all adult citizens. Even to people like Bill Gates! Because that makes the administration very easy and cost-effective. And also, for rich people, a UBI will not make much difference, but for say a single mom without job a UBI like that is a big deal. And also, people with low income jobs will receive both the UBI plus their ordinary salary, so that will make a huge difference. For a CEO earning millions a UBI will hardly make any difference at all, and there are much fewer rich people. So that's why I think a UBI can be distributed as unconditional helicopter money.

I think this presenter is bashing Trump too much, but he has some good points about China:

Brand new video by Aaron Abke who often uses A Course in Miracles in his teachings:

The new Chinese digital currency DCEP (e-yuan) is extremely efficient for transferring money. When it comes to large transfers of money today the SWIFT system is often used, which is old, clunky and doesn't actually transfer money and instead the transactions have to cleared manually.

Quote

"The Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT), legally S.W.I.F.T. SCRL, provides a network that enables financial institutions worldwide to send and receive information about financial transactions in a secure, standardized and reliable environment. ... SWIFT does not facilitate funds transfer: rather, it sends payment orders, which must be settled by correspondent accounts that the institutions have with each other." - Wikipedia

It's unlikely that the U,S, would use the Chinese new e-money but I found that there is another problem which is that Trump has started to weaponize the SWIFT system according to this video:

This must mean that there are lots of countries who want to replace SWIFT and even accept the Chinese new system, but larger countries and especially the U.S. will want to prevent that.

The solution is...... a global digital currency! I stick to my previous proposal that IMF issues e-global, a digital currency, and then each country localizes it into their own version of the currency, such as e-dollar, e-yen, e-euro, e-pound and e-yuan. So all countries will use the same currency e-global because each national currency is just a tokenized version such as e-dollar and e-euro are in reality e-global, so then money transfer and currency exchange become transparent and automatic. And I suggest zero transaction and conversion fees to secure e-global as competitive and low-friction in the long run.

Is fourth density in the Law of One a different kind of physical reality than today's third density world? No, I believe it's the same physical reality only that fourth density is more capable with less restrictions than third density.

Imagine a world made of only Lego bricks. In that world we would believe that Lego bricks are the fundamental building blocks of reality. Similarly today, we believe that atoms and subatomic particles are like definite particles and that's the limit of what physical reality is made of.

In the video with Deepak Chopra and Sadhguru they talked about Yogic matter which is more fundamental than what we today think of as physical matter. That to me sounded like higher density potential! So instead of experiencing reality as being limited to atoms, in fourth density more of the Yogic matter becomes available, meaning physical reality becomes more flexible.

[Anderz]

Trump needs to keep bashing China massively, at least before the election. And even after the election, I don't see how the U.S. could ever accept China's new digital e-yuan (DCEP).

And China is years ahead of the western powers in terms of e-money in combination with e-payments (AliPay and WePay). So what I hope for is that the G20 meeting will result in at least a proposal for a global digital currency.

[Anderz]

I want to keep ranting about money because that's such a huge part of the ego. Money will be necessary and useful for many years still to come and that's why e-money as a global currency is desirable to improve society in the whole world. It's the love of money that is problematic. And I figured out one possible definition of love of money which is when money becomes emotional. And money becomes emotional by connecting it to calendar time. Ego emotions are produced when personal money is placed in a predicted future.

The mistake the ego makes with its treatment of money is that it turns money, which is a lifeless object, into something that the ego believes is a cause, an agent with the power to do anything or a tool necessary for personal success. What money is in reality is a concept, a noun. And a noun cannot do anything. A noun isn't even a concrete tool. So the love of money boils down to a mistaken view by the ego where its own concept is taken as something that in isolation can produce love. It can't. So it's a false kind of love.

[Anderz]

Both money and for example unicorns are concepts. Assuming that unicorns don't exist there is of course a crucial difference between unicorns and money. To the ego the concept unicorn is light (not heavy) since it's just a flaky fantasy. Money on the other hand is a concept that is connected to loads of real things. So money is a very heavy concept to the ego.

From a nondual perspective both money and unicorns are the same thing. This requires taking a meta perspective and looking at thoughts as concepts which in turn are parts of the same one reality, not actually separate objects.

I have started thinking about the word light in the Bible as meaning consciousness and spirit as meaning movement. The Holy Spirit, then, means the whole movement of reality. And it's this whole movement caused by the will of God which is nondual causality which determines what happens. A Course in Miracles says:

Quote

"The Atonement is not the price of your wholeness, but it is the price of your awareness of your wholeness. 2 For what you chose to "sell" had to be kept for you, since you could not "buy" it back. 3 Yet you must invest in it, not with money but with spirit. 4 For spirit is will, and will is the "price" of the Kingdom. 5 Your inheritance awaits only the recognition that you have been redeemed. 6 The Holy Spirit guides you into life eternal, but you must relinquish your investment in death, or you will not see life though it is all around you." - ACIM T-12.IV.7.

When artificial intelligence becomes really clever then it can replace a lot of the need for thinking. Smart AIs could manage all the practical things in our lives. It might seem outrageous to have machines replacing the human intellect, but it's just a similar yet higher evolutionary step as when machines started to replace human muscle force and skills centuries ago.

But that's something for the future. We have exponential progress so it will likely be in a near future historically speaking, but that still means decades from today where society really begins to change due to artificial general intelligence (AGI). So in the coming decades much human inventions and development is necessary, and it looks like China is now leading the technological progress, such as the completion of the BeiDou-3 navigation system:

One incredible thing a presenter said in the video is that BeiDou-3 not only can give users exact location; when people are separated from cell phone towers such as in a desert or on a mountain, smartphones can send data to the satellites. Only very slow speed communication but enough to send text messages enabling rescuing operation to locate people in emergency situations.

[kagaria]

@Anderz do you work in the field of AI?

[Anderz]

@kagaria No, but I have looked into Ray Kurzweil's predictions and he has shown how technological progress is exponential, meaning accelerating and even though AI research has been slow in the past centuries things like machine learning are now improving at a fast pace.

Is China leading the AI development? Maybe not, because the U.S. has superior military technology. However, China is focusing on integrating AI in a massive information infrastructure. And that kind of integration is what I believe will make a huge difference compared to the western technologies.

[kagaria]

@Anderz why is it impossible for humanity to come together in this?

[Anderz]

@kagaria My take is that it was necessary for humanity to "fall" meaning become split from unity so that we could develop a unique civilization. So our entire human history is separate factions within humanity struggling and fighting each other for dominance.

And this struggle is still going on. What happens is that the separate parts of civilization grow larger and larger, from small tribes, to villages, to cities, to regions and countries. And it seems to me that this ongoing U.S. - China conflict is the last conflict that needs to be resolved in order to reach global unity.
