Rant Against Toxic Culture

[Thought Art]

If the brain is just full of chemicals.
Then, you have nothing to fear…. I mean it makes sense that if you work on doing inner alchemy then you can develop an inner sweetness. 

Inside you exists heaven for eternity. 

You’ve been born in a dark age of deep sickness. 

Sickness and suffering is not how reality is supposed to be. 

You are infinite love.

The social matrix we are a part of is deeply ignorant and sick. 

Consuming alcohol and various other neurotoxins has deeply poisoned us. Drinking alcohol and binge drinking in our youth is a very dangerous and bad idea. However, this goes far beyond simply drinking but layers of trauma, bad epistemology, and group think that lead us into complete stupidity and sickness. 

Our media is full of toxic ideas and imagery, and many of those who raised us programmed us with toxic ideas and limiting beliefs. 

There are totally different epistemological frameworks and ways of being that are possible for humans that have not yet been discovered or mass adopted. 

We live in a deeply sick and toxic culture. Stop looking to others as an example of how reality is supposed to be. 

Suffering, guilt, shame, fear, sickness, confusion, hate, self hate, ignorance, addiction, pain, etc are all false and a sign you are deeply caught in your own nightmare. 

Your true nature is whole, total health, goodness and perfect self love.

Anything less than perfect health, perfect self love and perfect alignment with the principles of living a good life is compete bull shit.

What I am saying might not make sense today. However, begin to slowly ask more and more questions. 

Why is there so much dysfunction in our society?

Why are there mental health epidemics?

Why do so many men and women struggle to have quality relationships?

Why does true happiness seem so elusive?

Why do people believe that reality is suffering?

Why have religions like Christianity resulted in things like sexual abuse, genocide, and other outrageous crimes against humanity? 

Why is there so much trauma in our culture?

Why do we have things like opioid epidemics in certain communities?

Why are we so afraid to feel our emotions? Why do we cover over our feelings with food, porn, drugs and endless entertainment?

This is not a culture you want to blindly accept. This is a darkness that permeates all cultures on earth. 

To feel well, whole, safe, loving, loved, good, content, whole, successful, healthy, capable, joyful, relaxed, calm, creative, aligned, happy, present, to be open to feeling negative emotions as well with loving, yet objective open minded kindness…. This is closer to a clear, healthy and sober mind. 

Not living in fear, judging others, petty human nonsense, shaming others, guilting others, us back them, separation etc… nor all the negative emotions we point at ourselves… 

This is my rant against feeling like shit.

I envision a world of healthy, happy, grounded and emotionally mature human beings sharing the world in peace and balance.

Forgive the world, accept it fully into Your heart and it will no longer be toxic. Know the New Earth already exists in this Infinite Multiverse and You've already been phasing in and out of Heaven on Earth as your vibrational field varies in frequency from day to day. As We progress along the path, You, I, and every spiritual seeker on the planet will create this world anew. We can do anything we set our minds to. In fact, We already did it. Now it's just a matter of tuning in. Tune the body like you would a guitar until your heart sings with praise, joy and gratitude for All That Is throughout the day.

I love your rants! we should make a featured thread of rants complete with leo's as well

[Thought Art]

Anyway, just one particular rant. I don’t normally rant.

[Eternal Unity]

So why now?

[Thought Art]

@Eternal Unity Because I am studying our toxic culture. 
 

I am putting my foot down that I will live a life well lived and not waste life in addiction, suffering, trauma and pettiness. Life is to be lived well.

Repression of sexuality, after my dating adventure I looked a bit into sexology and it was used for example by churches and kings for birth control, so the rich stay rich and the poor poor, in stage blue ethnocentric driven cultures in europe etc.

Many never developed quality and go for the path of least resistance, the highest quality relationships are of people who are mostly attuned to nature and ethics in a way, and have a loving relationship instead of materalism with TV and are working pretty hard and have a connection to spirituality and great friendships. Which is super rare. 

• Don't see relationships as mastery process
• Abundance of porn and sexual material creates false expectations
• Excess individuality of stage orange, (middle class invented sexual fetishes etc.) I think smth. akin to this as it was allowed, historically.... see nowadays the good middle class will most likely be in favour of this kind of liberty without taking spirituality into account. I think porn is fine, for example just apparently is not the greatest for some couples.
• All religions teach this, and it's a surivial mechanism to maximize pleasure and reduce suffering, and many do whatever they want recklessly as long as this is present

Apparently there is happiness beyond conditions, this is what I wanted to work upon with Shinzen...

Because you have a body I'd say without a physical system that does not elicit pain, there would not be the believe, unfortunate cirumstance of karma... in that way, cause and effect.

Manipulation, gasligting, power dynamics, being made fun of, anxiety, fear trauma.

Ego and power, as well as a lack of integrity. Not a single leader as smart and competent disambiguating power in power to stay in power and don't act from power. At least this is my pov..., yet he/she still has to hold power otherwise this does not work. See Ken Wilber as leader of integral I never get the sense that he is in power, yet he has power and is in power in a sense of the community there, and also has been. I might have seen one holistic leader who is capeable, of it as LC's support it...'

Translogical power would be the key term, I've learned. Also lack of healing and compassion.


Here goes me...

great post. precise points. Why is human being like this? because in it is the seed of madness, necessary for the evolution of the social matrix. It is like that, and we have to put up with it. fucking hell. if not, we should have been born dolphins, or birds. let us at least do our part in the time we have to get closer to solving the human puzzle

Won't that always be a moving goal post though?

How about "This is a beautiful world to be appreciated, an ever-changing world, it will be different tomorrow so appreciate how it is today, but the direction I would like it to head is healthier, happier, more grounded, and mature"

Feeling like shit is just from not enjoying the cake in front of you and instead comparing it to one you want in the future. Have a spoon full, you can have your cake and eat it too.

@Thought Art You can do it by actually doing it. Not ranting. In fact, when you rant - you placing energy in wasting precious time speaking with yourself since there is only YOU in this exsistence. So, by ranting, you achieve THE OPPOSITE of your goal and go closer to death, oblivion and, really, nowhere at all. Am I crazy?

[Thought Art]

@Eternal Unity Rant is okay sometimes 

[Eternal Unity]

@Thought Art You don't owe me a report. Go to whatever...

[Breakingthewall]

@Eternal Unity

It's not ranting, is just a description of what it means to be human. and not too pessimistic. I would even say optimistic for the hopes of having a satisfying human life.

Since a teenager, the non-stupid individual tries to lower himself to stupidity in order to fit in. they are years surrounded by absolutely stupid beings, devoid of love, dry, empty. incapable of the most basic understanding. far more backward than a caveman and even an ape. crazy, sick, deceived, dead in life. getting out of that well is a feat

[Thought Art]

This was a flow of thought that came to me after a moderate 5meo experience. 
 

I realized that I am infinite love in the face of all these toxic ‘external’ influences. These states of deep selfless wholeness are great for orienting you within the realm of experiences. To ground yourself in wholeness, to be mature healthy and whole. To increase your consciousness and to overcome the undertoe of society. 

 

Man, so many of my songs ring true to what I said here. I’ve been writing songs about this stuff since my early 20’s. 

Edited February 14, 2023 by Thought Art

Not my song but, a mood and lyrics I’ve been contemplating to.

——

Who are you to wave your finger?
You must have been outta your head
Eye hole deep in muddy waters
You practically raised the dead

Rob the grave to snow the cradle
Then burn the evidence down
Soapbox house of cards and glass so
Don't go tossin' your stones around

You must have been high
You must have been high
You must have been

Foot in mouth and head up ass-hole
Whatcha talkin' 'bout?
Difficult to dance 'round this one
'Til you pull it out, boy
You must have been so high

You must have been so high
Steal, borrow, refer, save your shady inference

Kangaroo done hung the juror with the innocent
Now you're weeping shades of cozened indigo

Got lemon juice up in your eye
When you pissed all over my black kettle
You must have been high-high
You must have been high-high
Who are you to wave your finger?
So full of it
Eyeballs deep in muddy waters
Fuckin' hypocrite
Liar, lawyer; mirror show me, what's the difference?
Kangaroo done hung the guilty with the innocent

Now you're weeping shades of cozened indigo
Got lemon juice up in your eye, eye
When you pissed all over my black kettle
You must've been-

So who are you to wave your finger?
Who are you to wave your fatty fingers at me?

You must have been out your mind
Weepin' shades of indigo
Trapped without a reason
Weepin' shades of indigo
Liar, lawyer; mirror for ya', what's the difference?
Kangaroo be stoned. He's guilty as the government

Now you're weeping shades of cozened indigo
Got lemon juice up in your eye, eye
Now when you pissed all over my black kettle
You must've been
High
High
High
High
Eyeballs deep in muddy waters
Your balls deep in muddy waters
Ganja, please
You must have been out your mind

we are pushing in a direction that no one is pushing. is the beginning of a movement in the path of the human: the real understanding
