Re: The Ego and Societal Transparency
after reading your material..OP,

it seems you are promoting THE EVOLUTION OF EGO. right?

you make many claims about 'turning against the ego' isn't 'good' and is counter productive,,..but you fail to acknowledge the OTHER OPTION.

you fail to acknowledge the path of reintegration..the path of the guru or yogi.

the path of dissolution of ego

the path of dissolution of ego does not involve conflict nor challenge. ..in fact any direct confrontation (as you have clearly stated) with the ego creates a twisted bag of worms.

but..i must say.

The ego is a bag of worms, plain and simple. Fighting the ego creates a twisted bag of worms. Parasitical worms.

You wish to further the evolution of a parasite.

It is a literal comparison with a worm to a butterfly.

You go ahead and turn your worm into a butterfly...

I choose to return to what is and leave your illusion of wilfullness which is ENABLED BY A PARASITICAL WORM WHICH PROVIDES YOU WITH A CONSTRUCT WHICH YOU CAN INHABIT AND LIVE SEPARATELY FROM REALITY.

this is the truth. sorry to offend anyone with it.

but, if it's any consolation , your continued illusion is meant to be as well...it's just the path of delay..needed for the TIME it provides for all to choose to return as they will.

return when you wish. until then..have fun! (misery)

Nope

No I didn't. The first two sentences in my post say the exact opposite of what you wrote. Do not try to put your ego away. Don't try to put it down.


you fail to acknowledge the path of reintegration..the path of the guru or yogi.

Because I put it in the context of the collective, not the individual. The reintegration takes place collectively by the usage of transparency in the collective.

the path of dissolution of ego

Which takes place on an individual level.

the path of dissolution of ego does not involve conflict nor challenge. ..in fact any direct confrontation (as you have clearly stated) with the ego creates a twisted bag of worms.

Exactly. Are you sure you read this post. Again, my first two sentences say exactly what you just said. Do not try to put your ego away. Don't try to put it down. And is also summed up in the last sentence of the first paragraph. Spiritual growth is the ability to transcend dualism. It is not the ability to push it away.

The remainder of your reply I won't even comment on, as you are so extremely off base with what you thought you read in my OP.

You are way off base. You misread the OP so erroneously, as to somehow think it is the exact opposite of what it is. interesting psychology at work there.

Thanks for the reply, Sickscent hf

It's taken me a lifetime to break the mould of trying to "work" things out like relationships, goals, career, making enough of the green-stuff to finally breathe easy, etc. After a few near-misses on the physical plane with my physical and emotional wellbeing, I just kinda shrugged and said, "I don't care what happens". That was the turning point.

Opportunities, challenges to the stale existence that I had been experiencing, starting presenting themselves to me. Like the Collective Soul music video "The World I Know", stepping to the edge gave me a view to a world of balance and purpose. Not focusing on things like everybody else. Seeing the wonder of an ant gathering crumbs to an Ant Nebula in space, there was a similarity in pattern and geometry.

What if the Universe is the opposite of expanding from an explosion, and instead is imploding into smaller and smaller microcosms, each an exact duplicate of the functioning cells and organs of our bodies.

Many indigenous people believe Gaia is a living entity, with a circulatory system, respiration, and cleansing organs. I am reminded of the classic movie "2001: A Space Odyssey" where the astronaut keeps getting older and older until he becomes a fetus within another planet.

WOW!

This is almost what I am getting at: resistance to flow and imbalanced circuits. A divided psyche intermediates and resists flow causing psychic injury.

The corners of self must be grounded or the externalities added to the ego will resist the inevitable until they spontaeneously fail. The self with it's transhumanist garb will short out the artificial, thus leaving most quite like zombies. In that you become what you pretend to be and if that is shorn away too radically it will leave a gaping psychic wound.

Hey Sickscent. I guess I missed this thread -)

I often chuckle at the notion of transparency. Some aspects of ego don't want it. These are the nefarious closed-loop programs anchoring into the will...

A reboot or erasure wipes the slate clean (e.g., cosmic wipe or self-imposed). Yet beware of residual structures as traces that slowly fade.

A psyche speaks loudly of habitual constructs, or garbage. Know the psyche as the source of all illusions.

Fully realized in service to self, service to others becomes a mandate. The buddhi rides refreshed in the afterglow of the great purge, just as Siddhartha playing a flute riding an ox home to bring the good news.

There is only transparency.

Never forget the purge. In that basal stage we hold the reigns of all arts, we hold the capstone, we are the fulcrum. From those basics, all else is derived.

In contrast:

Society as a whole is headed in a dangerous direction. In the name of security, in the name of preservation of history, all info traffic is being logged. The future us will know everything about these times as all will be recorded. Future archeologers will see the insanity.

There will be a convergence point at which we'll agree, that to record all in factual sense is to leave nothing to the imagination. That's no fun it kills discovery. Why spell it out completely, when enigma can inspire while providing some mystery. No wonder Mayans encrypted their cosmology in relief puzzles. In so doing they preserved their knowledge and heritage in plain sight. Rome didn't even know. They destroyed what they recognized, and that wasn't much.

Supremacy over transparency is a the desire of the scoundrel.

Ego scheme-emo; the Greater Love activates 'super' structures, yet scorches the nonsense.

Re: The Ego and Societal Transparency
Hey...I don't mean to argue about suppressing the ego,
but to my personal experience it wasn't until I found a way to
silence the endless chatter of it, that I could hear the real news.

My Real Name came to me out of that quietness.
(And I laughed and laughed at its ironic perfection :D)

Sure, all the way from self-preservation to ambition the ego is
a worldly necessity - yet from that silent place, all my work looks
like (at best) controlled folly ;)

chuckle

BTW, SickScent - I have no other evidence than what I've seen
around me in my own life, but it seems the awakening gathers its
flocks and "families" in certain patterns...and not all individuals are
cut out to be Dreamers.
Like yours truly, for instance. I just lack the knack.
But I believe I am a fairly good Hunter. Or should I say Observer.
More and less discernable patterns are my favourite prey.

I personally do know Dreamers who seem to gather irl info from
dreamtime.
Never ceases to amaze me.
