On the topic of daydreaming, I have concern because I used to (and still do to less extent) do it. An example is that when I read these awful stories of all the shootings and stabbings, I will usually imagine what is happening. And then I'll put myself in place, and try to "save the day" or defeat the attackers. And it goes on to negative thoughts about battling and violence. That sort of thing. I guess trying to correct the wrongs isn't the best thing, because the event already happened so it's a fantasy. Does anyone else do this, any thoughts?
I used to do something similar, although it was more along the lines of finding the people responsible and kicking their butts something serious so they could never do it again. Now I'm usually just depressed about it. So I figure if I analyze the situation as objectively as I can, I might reach some comforting conclusion, or even a solution. But usually it just depresses me more, because it makes me see in more clarity just how evil, and apparently unstoppable, these 'beings' are. They're determined to destroy our global society and create as much suffering as possible for as many as possible, and we're tasked with the job of watching it happen. How cool is that! Not!
It's really a pretty ugly picture, and it helps me to better understand all those people out there who turn their faces away from the horrors of the world and pretend it isn't happening, or fall into illusions or dreams, or don't want to listen to the things we would like to tell them.
Sometimes I think we're cursed, those of us who have some 'gene' or something that made us maladjusted to society and inclined to dig for and discover the truth of this world. Did we think we'd find bunny rabbits and roses? If so, we got a shock! So here we are, naturally inclined to keep digging and uncovering the horrible reality of this world, and for a while thinking we could 'spread the word' and thereby help to fix it. But as time has passed, that idea has been exposed as a pipe dream. For the last 14 years we have been actively broadcasting a message to the public to wake up to just how messed up this world is, and informing them about the psychopathic nature of those that rule over us, and the likely future that awaits. The result? Things have gotten immeasurably worse. That's kind of depressing. No wonder we have tended to exclaim "Bring on the comets!" from time to time!
Our research into historical and social cycles and the rise and fall of civilizations and cyclical cataclysms is backed up by fairly hard evidence. So one thing we can be pretty sure about is that 'nature' calls a halt to the madness that tends to rise to unreasonable heights here on planet earth. That seems to be about the only 'saving grace' we can really count on.
Hope I didn't depress anyone too much! Feel free to give the positive side of the argument! :D
Joe, I feel exactly the same. I had my own little death in not seeing heroes anymore, as I had the issue with politics which has some noble leaders but the game is rigged even for them.
The only positivity I see now is in itself ominous. The book The 5th Option- Origin of Life by Brent Shiller lays out how dna serves information. So, our 'curse' is like a mutation that opens us up to more information. Meanwhile the masses hide more from information, making their own dreams within dreams, like Inception and Cobb's delusions (very likely he never woke up fully-
https://jonnegroni.com/2013/04/25/what-you-missed-about-inception/), people are pretty much feeding STS, which is wishful thinking!
I read that mutations a lot of times come before a big change. At that time, the life form with the mutation has a hard time, because they are not as "fit" for the environment as those without the mutation. But after a big change, sometimes that mutation gives immense benefits while the previous non-mutated life forms have a hard time to survive. I guess our mutation is the "Adamic" form as Mouravieff spoke about.
I see it not only as a physical gene, but as we call "spiritual"- a link to a higher order, less entropy as The 5th Option would say. I suppose that's why to graduate to 4d STO only 51% is required. But to be STS in 4d, you have to be on the tippy top, because it requires (as the C's said) infinite knowledge- to be able to have wisful thinking and yet a higher aim (or whatever we can call it). I suppose because on that level of information, to create order you have to concentrate it because the rest of their work involves creating a LOT of entropy, haha.
So, the grim part is that for 4d STS to exist, it means a lot of 3d has to be their servant (unwillingly in many cases and that's what hurts).
There really is no solution, it seems to be the way of reality- for them to exist, this has to exist. And without this mayhem, we wouldn't even have got to this point of realizing how critical objectivity and the work is!
In wondering about 3d STO, I recall reading a recent Sott article on an Amazonian tribe
https://www.sott.net/article/322632-Dream-people-of-the-Amazon-The-world-view-and-dream-life-of-the-Achuar-tribe . Despite their spiritual link to higher knowledge, a lot of which seemed to be linked to taking hallucinogens, they still had a high mortality rate of young men in wars between other groups.
In fact, until the Catholic missionaries taught them how to negotiate, one out of every two adult males met his grisly end in battle.
I really don't understand why they couldn't have peace and compromise when they were so called "super spiritual"?
Ironically, it was a Catholic missionary that taught them how to negotiate by using a casette recorder where he would run back and forth between the groups to help them compromise. Sheesh, I expected a group living in harmony with nature to be able to get along with other groups without needing a "un spiritual" Catholic representative?!
So, even that fantasy of some kind of tribal society makes me do a double take now. Sure, we could get along and do well, but how could we deal with people who don't even want to listen or think? Have they already regressed so much that this may not be reversible? In that case, like Caesar said they are fickle and easily mislead. So that is the ominous part: Despite the hope, there is also a lot of objective history showing that we may be one of a few small life rafts escaping from a huge ship!
