Leo's Blog: Infinite Insights
Miscellaneous bits of wisdom and resources on personal development, life purpose, philosophy, epistemology, nonduality, psychedelics, etc. Published randomly throughout the week.
- penetrating mental vision or discernment.
- the sudden act of grasping the inner nature or truth of a situation.
- a deep understanding of a person or thing.
Insights here are meant to be quick and half-baked. Consider these food for thought.
I've deliberately disabled comments to keep the blog streamlined. If you want to discuss any of the blog posts, you can do so here: Actualized.org Forum
If I didn’t have serious health problems I would be a lot more arrogant. Nothing humbles you like health problems out of your control. Sometimes I think I have health problems just to help me understand the weak and helpless. The strong and healthy are too arrogant and too oblivious to understand the weak. You are arrogant until you realize that your health was given to you by God and could be taken away at any minute. Strength breeds arrogance, contempt, ego, and evil. To be Good you must understand weakness. The only way to understand weakness is to be weak. Weakness cannot be understood hypothetically.
Humility is the recognition that you are at God's mercy. We are all at the mercy of Truth. Some of us know it, most of us don't. Even God is at the mercy of Truth. The only difference is that it has fully surrendered to it and you haven't yet.
Makes no difference who you are, one day your health will fail and you will die.
When you get sick you will appreciate these words. And until then you won't. You will act arrogant until Truth beats it out of you. The more arrogant you are, the more of a beating you're in for. God doesn't beat anyone to punish, Truth just must be what it be. God can't change the Truth to make you feel better. The fool wishes God to change truth for him. The sage becomes God. If you can't beat it, join it.
The strong are in denial about this. They've demonized weakness. They're in for a beating. The taller the throne, the harder the fall.
Mathematicians are such fools that they don't even understand that numbers are actually infinite. Not potentially infinite, actually infinite.
They even invented a name for this foolishness: "Ultrafinitism".

Of course numbers are actually infinite.
What actually exists, is EVERYTHING!
Mathematicians don't even understand what numbers are. Isn't that amazing?
Exactly correct:

Note: Just because I share a few Bashar clips with you does not mean I endorse everything he says or his predictions and UFO stories. Whenever I share a clip with you, of anyone, I am only endorsing that clip, not their entire body of work. And maybe not even the entire clip. You need to be very selective in this work because even the best people speak nonsense sometimes, myself not excluded.
I love this example of survival in the legal system:

That's such a good example.
In this work, I want you to see survival infesting and hijacking every aspect of human institution and social system.
Notice how the American legal system, right up to the Supreme Court, is corrupted by survival. The fish rots from the head down. To have a healthy legal system, it must be about truth, not survival.
Start seeing survival very realistically, very precisely, as it crystalizes across society. Survival is a devious force of nature. Survival is a trickster. I want you to see survival where nobody else does. Develop a radar for unconscious survival. This is a game-changer for you.
The Devil is unconscious survival. Keep your eyes open.
Somehow I got interested in the history of Babylon and found this good video.
Imagine that you were a tech CEO and you actually believed you’re just a few years away from creating a God-like AI. An AI that will solve physics, math, science, cancer, disease, energy, climate change, government, business, robotics, genetics, poverty, housing, hunger, pollution — basically everything. Can you see that this one belief will make you a psychopathic monster? You will do anything, your mind will rationalize any behavior no matter how evil, just to achieve that goal. You can justify killing a million children to create that AI because if you could create it, it would be worth it. But the problem is, there is zero evidence that you will create it.
This is the actual mindset that most of current tech CEOs have. This should terrify all of us. The problem is not AI, the problem is that delusional tech-bros have convinced themselves that they are months away from creating God, and if they don't China will. This is a mass collective delusion on a terrifying scale with disastrous consequences. Tech oligarchs are not going to build a digital God, instead they will use that delusion to try to enslave mankind. And then they’ll just say, “Oooops! My bad.” The digital God will be fake, but the enslavement of the poor and middle-class will be very real. I am not worried about AI, I worried about the delusions people have about AI and what evils they will justify with it. Tech CEOs' ideology on AI is more dangerous than suicide bombers who think killing civilians cements their favor with Allah. When you conflate your own survival with God, that’s when the greatest evils happen. Right now these tech-bros are equating their survival with God, which is a dangerous delusion.
No, you are not going to solve all of mankind's problems with a magic chat-bot.
Imagine that one day you start hallucinating that you are Tom Cruise. You keep hallucinating it so deeply, for so long, that you literally become Tom Cruise. That’s what Tom Cruise is! Imagine hallucinating that you are Tom Cruise so profoundly that when I come along and tell you, “Hey, you know.. you’re just hallucinating being Tom Cruise.” You respond with, “What the fuck are you talking about? Of course I’m Tom Cruise, you idiot!” So you continue being Tom Cruise, until eventually you die, and once you're dead you realize, “Oh shit! Of course I was hallucinating being Tom Cruise. Hahaha!”
I am telling you, scientifically, that if you hallucinate that you are Tom Cruise hard enough, you will become Tom Cruise. This is not a metaphor. This is what Tom Cruise is, ontologically. This is the true meaning of God. God is the ability to hallucinate anything. This is Infinite Mind.
Since Reality is Undefined, nothing has definition, which allows God to define itself however it wants. However God wills to define itself, is what it will appear to itself to be. If God wants to define itself as Tom Cruise, it will literally turn into Tom Cruise and live the Tom Cruise life for 90 years. That's what Tom Cruise is. That's what Infinite Being means. God is self-definition. The highest power is to define your own Being.
Mind is Infinite Being defining itself. Infinite Being is the highest technology.
Consciousness is Unlimited. If it wants to become Tom Cruise, it becomes Tom Cruise — directly, without asking anyone's permission, because there's no one to ask.
The reason everyone is so closedminded is to deny this. If you were openminded to this you would start to lose your sanity. You are so closedminded because you have a hallucination to sustain. When your hallucination is threatened with truth, you start acting up emotionally, you concoct drama to re-establish the solidity of your hallucination. That's why humans are addicted to drama. Donald Trump would rather start a war than sit down and realize he is a hallucination.
Hallucination is not a mental illness. Hallucination is the difference between life and death; between one life and another.
This is the true meaning spirituality.
