Monday #NoeticSpectrum : We are seeing, still, extant in our world today, and almost everywhere, the cost of grievance based transactional leadership in governance. If there is duty to people at all it's generally to serve the few, the "chosen one's*, and those wealthy enough to buy a seat at the table.
It's not #Fate, or #Prophecy , or #God 's will.
It's the #Dumbth.
How bad will all this get ?
When does the supply of dumb run out ?
1/2 Tuesday #NoeticSpectrum : Conditioning. Discipline. Understanding the situation. Question who you think your people are. It's devastating to find out much of your team is at least as dumb and unskilled as the opposition...in many respects. But it is *a lot less dangerous* than going into battle and finding out you've been sold out in advance along with the idiot next to you in the trench. At that point your equals, even if your the one with the bars.
We are further down that timeline than-
Tuesday #NoeticSpectrum : Sometimes realization and closure are the same thing-
Resolution. Resolve. Non attachment to bits of world tearing themselves apart. Possibly this requires a bit of luck wrt not being under skies filled with missiles. For now at least.
Impermanence and change are givens.The ironic constants.Some bits are lucky. Others not so much.
You can bring peace with you wherever you go once it becomes internal. It's that one true battle worth waging for however long it takes
1/n Monday #NoeticSpectrum : Generally I am not given to sadness or depression (exception for girlfriends in youth deciding ur a putz)so this thing that happened this morning was a bit scary. I've been fortunate enough to only have the antipole to that in life - mostly moments of intuitive recognition when finding a solution to a problem that would have some long term impact...at least locally.
This was different.Like a funeral procession parked in the driveway...or those moments in the unit...
Saturday #NoeticSpectrum : Analysis sometimes brings us up cold. Itโ€™s about roles and context and War, such as it is, is depicted as a game, or competition, or just another transaction. It is none of these things. It is horror, and misery, and strife. It is complete retardation in and of all our greatest human capacities in subjugation to fear. No one wins. Everyone loses. But they will pretend otherwise. The robot cycle has them trapped. Forever
1/n Friday #NoeticSpectrum : A lot of the adventure in research mode is just asking some next question. I say some because if the previous question was good it'll kick back at least two more...
This time we're in the #OBE / #NDE space.
Laboratory experiments with subjects both in OBE and #LucidDream states have successfully shown ability in some subjects to go to and describe / identify physical targets both in situ and at distance.They describe targets with physical qualia even though they...
1/n Wednesday #NoeticSpectrum : A
sudden #NDE is an extreme event for most irrespective of priors. Deep #NDE's involving the full spectrum of transition and return can take a lifetime to process and integrate...
The initial phase is a major confrontation with the idea that death isn't real.Physical death is of course very real. The notion that you are still you with or without a body is...a bit much at first, more so when you had so many other plans...
In the end hopefully the idea that you...
1/2 Sunday #NoeticSpectrum : Statements like
"Everyone has #Precognition, #Clairvoyance, #Clairaudience mostly come off as nonsensical for large segments of the population. If you regularly test/utilize these unseeming 'sensory channels' or find the data coming out of research labs and published studies convincing then it's no big deal. What is a big deal is that, much in the same way we have a hard time nailing down what #Consciousness is exactly, we still have a hard time formulating how ...
Saturday #NoeticSpectrum : So this strange dream , that delicious state in between deep sleep and wakefulness. I catch myself, seemingly in a state of semi worship, standing in front of a tall white obelisk.No, wait...this seems familiar. I am standing in front of the fridge ! Then it shifts. Across the room is some sillyhead, right on the edge of snoring, sucking in air like a fine IPA. Seems familiar. I know this place. There was a time when waking up with whiplash seemed mandatory.Not anymore
Monday #NoeticSpectrum : Our conscious experience in this life often gets us to ask, and even occasionally answers,one or more of the "big" questions.These are nonordinary experiences that generally take time and effort to integrate. If we are fortunate we make peace with the understanding that transformative experience that can be proof of something remarkable to us individually will likely be mere anecdote to the outside world. What matters is our using that first puzzle piece to find the next
