Which is exactly what Schmachtenberger is doing. 

You think he thinks dystopia is beautiful?

Approach it as adventure, with curiosity, for fun, but being completely content with it turning into hell if it does, seeing how that too would be beautiful.

Okay, the only thing thats still unclear to me, is that how can you be confident about what motives he has based on the information you have?

Like for example how do you know with a high confidence that he is approaching it with fear?

I don't think he is freaked out about some possible dystopia, yet he chooses to steer away from it, for the benefit of all - because he cares. Nobody wants a dystopia, so don't be so smug about this.

All things are chained and entwined together, all things are in love; if ever you wanted one moment twice, if ever you said: ‘You please me, happiness! Abide, moment!’ then you wanted everything to return!” - Friedrich Nietzsche

Okay I just turned on the part one video and watched like 1 minute, watching that you don't think he's afraid of the outcome he's trying to avoid?

I didn't say freaked out. 

"Nobody wants a dystopia, so don't be so smug about this. " so I take it you don't think a dystopia would be beautiful?

That summarizes your whole take on this quite well.

I can see the beauty in torture yet not let myself be tortured voluntarily.

Of course they act as some kind of intermediate source for knowledge, but not because they want to monopolize this position, but precisely because they want to open source it. They are literally giving you the tools to make sense of the world yourself - that's the whole point.

Well, we'll have to see. Schmachtenberger and all of his kind can take off into stratosphere, where the fundamental human realities of authority, hierarchy and power have finally been transcended. I will be here with the quod semper, quod ubique, quod ab omnibus ("what is always, what is everywhere, what is by everybody believed").


Oh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head… And as I climb into an empty bed, oh well, enough said… I know it’s over, still I cling, I don’t know where else I can go… Over…

"Defensiveness, difficult emotions, striving, struggling, survival etc. must be avoided at all costs." That is not true acceptance.

Anyway, as a true degenerate it seems that I have initiated myself into the 333 Current as Shugal, the Howler in the Desert of Seth!

I will finish with an extended version of an earlier quotation and then be gone from here for good:

Quote

 

One morning the Baron looked tired. ‘I have been suffering from insomnia,’ he said. ‘When I write late into the night, the problems stay with me - and the monsters…’ He did not clarify his meaning. Instead, he plunged straight into a discussion of the Egyptian god Seth. That figure seemed to fascinate him: ‘Seth was the bad guy in the Egyptian pantheon. A reprobate god. Feared and loathed for having murdered the good one, Osiris. Yes, that insipid husband of Isis. So Seth was made into an embodiment of evil. They even thought he sided with the foreign invaders of Egypt…

‘Seth was a rebel. Dispatched his own brother. Like in the case of Romulus and Remus, only the other way around. As if it was Remus who killed Romulus. Osiris was a solid bourgeois deity, married, respectable. Par contre, they portrayed Seth with an animal head, an ugly snout, horns and a tail. A kind of brutish devil. His sacred animal was the hippopotamus. But I believe Seth was beautiful. His beauty was unbearable to the established priests so they sought to uglify him, an old trick. You remember Nietzsche? Zarathustra speaks: “O miserable wretches! In your stupidity, I know, my superman you would call evil.” An inversion of values. The higher is made into the lower. The eternal ruse of the vile and unworthy. Seth aided the foreign conquerors because the Egyptians had become effete, decadent, useless. They deserved defeat, they needed to be conquered, to be mastered by the Hyksos. Seth had rightly reproached them: “Look what rabble you have become! You were masters and now you are servants. Fit only to be ruled by whoever is strong enough to conquer you. It is not worth being your god. I am going to leave you. I hate your worship, your sacrifices. I’ll become your conquerors’ god - it serves you right.”

He paused, looking grim. ‘Seth was a desert god. But there are oases in deserts. Places of rest and refreshment. There is a kind of purity there… I could have been born in a desert… providing there were mountains there, I would have been happy.’

His enemies claimed that Seth had abandoned his people, that he had confused them. But they couldn’t see beyond their noses. The confusion was in their heads. No, Seth had clear vision: you have to be a mischief maker in a society of idiots, of democrats, of molluscs. They of course will repay you with hatred, or indifference. Exile you to the wilderness of anonymity, to the desert of insignificance. They don’t realise they do you a favour. It is good being away from the riffraff! Seth had got it right. I could never have been a priest, not a priest of any monotheistic religion - my caste is warriors - but, a priest of Seth, perhaps…

 

With that, I shall take my leave from this place. Goodbye! And Good Riddance!

I see no other way that you can raise these kinds of objections against someone like Dan who grew up within a non-dual community.

I bet you'll be back within a week spouting your nonsense here.

Nope, like what is specifically that makes you think that he is afraid (you have to make a point that is not about mentioning the problem ,because we established that mentioning a problem doesn't necessarily indicates that you are fearful)

I never said we can't affect things, I said we should.

Do you think he's a.) trying to avoid something, or b.) do something, or c.________? His primary motivation
