In my series Deconstructing The Myth Of Science, we discussed what I called "the black hole problem".
This is the black hole problem:
The black hole problem is not about faith or belief. It's about parts of reality being structured in such a way that makes 3rd person objective validation impossible.
It is nothing more than an ungrounded assumption that all aspects of reality should be 3rd person objectively verifiable. Just because some phenomena is not 3rd person verifiable doesn't make it false, it just means you aren't conscious of your own metaphysical and epistemological assumptions.
As it turns out, reality is not structured as anyone assumes. The fatal flaw in everyone's thinking is the expectation that your metaphysical assumptions should be correct. But why would they be? You never even bothered to check them. You're not even clear what they are.
God isn't about belief or proof. God is about realizing that all of your metaphysical assumptions are wrong.
Note: If you haven't seen the film Contact, I recommend you watch it.
The perfect illustration of toxic Stage Orange:
It was true in the 80's, it's even more true today.
America is drowning in greed and materialism. That's all that's happening. Epistemically ignorant, unconscious people collectively delude each other into choosing greed over Love.
I am working on an intellectual deconstruction of rationality that is so revolutionary, so profound, so unique that it will make your jaw drop. Once you watch it, your intellectual life will never be the same. Like a nuclear bomb that goes off in your mind.
Just this one topic is so significant and insightful that it would earn someone a PhD within academia. But it's actually more significant than that. If I was a typical academic, this one topic would be enough to define my entire career and life's work. But this topic is just one stepping stone towards even higher topics which are already in the works. The deconstruction of rationality is merely the appetizer towards topics which are so mystical and intelligent that they will bring you to tears and transform your understanding of spirituality, philosophy, and love.
My deepest and most revolutionary ideas are still ahead.
Crazy-deep videos are baking in the oven and I am already high on their sweet fumes.
Actualized.org will soon enter a new era of intelligence. Up to this point all of my work has been the caterpillar. This year the butterfly will emerge from its cocoon.
Stupidity is a beautiful concept:
I've spent my whole life studying collective stupidity and how to personally avoid it, even though I didn't know it had this name.
We are now in a once-in-a-lifetime moment of stupidity.
A hallmark of stupidity is thinking that you can get away with corruption scot-free just because everyone else is in on it with you. That's when the bus goes off the cliff.
And of course the stupid people think that everything is peachy.
The Trump administration will be the most corrupt in American history. This is absolutely certain. What's uncertain is how bad the damage will be. It will be somewhere between medium damage to a bloodbath. I'm going back and forth in my mind about which end of that range it will be. Very hard to say. And frankly it's too depressing to contemplate the worst case scenarios.
Democracy in the hands of the stupid is a recipe for evil. Which is why the ancient Greek philosophers had a low opinion of democracy. The only way democracy can generate good is if the people are well-educated:
"A primary object should be the education of our youth in the science of government. In a republic, what species of knowledge can be equally important? And what duty more pressing than communicating it to those who are to be the future guardians of the liberties of the country?"
-- George Washington
As I write this, the Trump administration has fired 50% of the employees of the Department of Education.
Remember, when the Devil takes charge, the first thing he does is corrupt the highest sources of truth, which is education and spirituality. And of course he corrupts any regulatory bodies that might check his abuse of power and that of his rich and corrupt minions. Then the reign of evil can truly begin.
I just heard this shocking story:
The story goes that the name for kangaroos originates from a time when some British official first arrived in Australia and saw a kangaroo. He pointed at it and asked a local aboriginal, "What do you call those things?" The aboriginal told him, "Kangaroo", by which he meant, "I don't understand."
This story may or may not be true. But either way, it's quite a perfect story for our epistemic purposes.
Nothing you know is real.
This is Kangaroo Awakening. This cannot be unseen.
Update: I have been told that this story is false. But it's a great story.
How is it possible that a human biological emotion like love could play any role in the ultimate nature of reality? This seems childish, unscientific, and stupid. Indeed — it seems that way.
First, you realize that there is no universe, no matter, no biological beings, there is only Consciousness. Then you realize that love is something Consciousness is doing. What is love doing? Love is Consciousness being captivated by the beauty of some finite aspect of itself. Like Narcissus falling in love with his own reflection in the pond. This recognition and appreciation of beauty creates the feeling or emotion humans call love. Then you realize that if Consciousness appreciated all aspects of itself equally it would literally fall in love with itself so deeply that it would move from feeling or reflection to unity with its beloved. The union of Consciousness with the object of its love results in metaphysical identity. The reflection of the observed in the observer merges to the point where the two become one. Consciousness reflects so deeply that it realizes that the object of its love was always identical to itself — closing the open circle. Consciousness achieves metaphysical Unity through self-reflection and re-collection. Consciousness realizes that identity is the highest form of Love. And since all distinctions and divisions are imagined by Consciousness, everything is ultimately identical with itself. A=A. When Consciousness realizes that it has been imagining all differences, all divisions, it drowns in a singularity of pure Love as it reunites with all of itself. The human emotion of love is now radically and existentially recontextualized as the absolute ontological union of all of Consciousness with itself. The tip of the human emotional iceberg is now understood to connect to the one and only substance of reality. A=A is fully realized. Finally, in Absolute Unity, Consciousness discovers its true nature: Infinite Love.
So now you see, Love is not an emotion, it is an Absolute. Finally, you understand that reality is nothing but Love. Love isn’t just real, it’s the only reality. Love is more real than atoms, than universe, than science, than rationality, than biology, than chemistry, than physics, than human beings. Of course. Exactly as it should be. Now, finally, everything makes perfect sense. The only thing that should ever exist is LOVE, and that's absolutely how it is.
The trap of love is that what seems childish and stupid, turns out to be so advanced that it can only be understood by infinite intelligence. It turns out that you projected your own materialist, rationalist, human stupidity on the very substrate of existence. You were so blind — you were such a godless rat! — you missed Absolute Love! You were so busy chasing cheese you never bothered to check whether the whole world was made of cheese.
Reality is LOVE. Nothing more advanced can be understood. This understanding is endless. You will never comprehend it. Love is so deep that God itself doesn’t fully understand it. As it turns out, the movement of every molecule in the Universe is just an attempt by God to understand LOVE — to understand Itself. Love is the telos. You were born of love, you will spend your whole life starving for love, and you will die drowning in LOVE. Because LOVE is the only game in town.
LOVE.
Of course. It's so fucking obvious in hindsight.
It is logically impossible for anything to exist but LOVE. Such is the brilliance of God.
