Khazaq (OP) User ID: 1444412 United States 07/18/2011 12:29 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What relationship did the plasmate have to the machine intelligence named VALIS? My impression is that VALIS was the god-entity itself Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1394032Well, VALIS stood for Vast Active Living Intelligence System, and I believe it was intended to be one aspect of God. It's been six years since I read VALIS though. I think the plasmate represented a part of God that bonded with human beings, like the holy spirit. Last Edited by Khazaq on 07/18/2011 12:31 AM |

Keep reading them all. You will gain the keys of our origin and what we are affected and influenced by...one being that we live in a holographic world. Bravo!! You are getting 'it'. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1471856Thanks. I do certainly consider it a very real possibility that our world is a holographic projection. However, my principal question is whether or not time really stopped in ancient times and restarted in modern times. I suppose it doesn't matter what the answer is though. We're living now, and time is in motion. I'm very confident we will soon see all prophecy fulfilled. |

Morgan User ID: 8852543 United States 01/14/2012 07:43 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm so glad I am not alone here...I have been very confused about this world and what it is. Philip K Dick has givin me so much. After an experience taking acid I felt as though I thought differently and in some way a part of my brian opened that had not before. I have just finished reading VALIS and I felt as though I was taking the journey with Philip trying to understand and put into words how I was feeling. His Tractates Cryptics Scriptura goes into more depth about the things that I felt I had 'discoverd'...he is much smarter and knows much more than me but the ideas were the same. It is funny how I didn't even know who he was before and saw a biography on him, went to the library and got 9 of his books and chose to read VALIS first. I feel like I am letting it consume me a bit, but my heart tells me I am suppose to do something about it. |
