If you had to teach a class in university...

If you were magically transported into a professorship in a world class university and had to teach a class, what would it be about? 


“Did you ever say Yes to a single joy? O my friends, then you said Yes to all woe as well. 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

You mean actual architecture, or just hardware and shit?

That's a bit... vague.

There's entire philosophy departments in universities with dozens of professors and hundreds of classes.

What "genre" of philosophy do you enjoy most?

Philosophy.

Instead of reading some book, everybody needs to bring one own thought into class and we would discuss them in a small group. It could be about any topic in philosophy which would make it extra versatile. I would maybe make study trips to very different places to allow different perspectives, like scientology, military, buddhist-places, Neo nazi groups if possible in a safe setting, zoos, skydiving, fighting sports, dancing classes... simply for perspectives. 

Alternatively deep Psychology on what the deep rooted patterns of the ego are.

Conscious Politics to change the fucking world. 


How is this post just me acting out my ego in the usual ways? Is this post just me venting and justifying my selfishness? Are the things you are posting in alignment with principles of higher consciousness and higher stages of ego development? Are you acting in a mature or immature way? Are you being selfish or selfless in your communication? Are you acting like a monkey or like a God-like being?

It would be a mix of:

- Evidence-based naturopathy / holistic medicine, like with nutrition, with a teaching style similar to Gil Carvalho 

- Non-dual entheogenic experience with inspiration from Martin W. Ball, Ph.D.

- Philosophy (with an emphasis epistemology & ontology)

- Spiral Dynamics 

- Daniel Schmatctenberger's style of systems thinking


"It is from my open heart that I will mirror you, and reflect back to you all that you are:

As a being of love, of energy, 

of passion, and truth."
