This is horrible!!!! There is enough abundance and affordable housing for everyone!!! But most of the resources and land are concentrated in a few hands that don't give a fuck about you or me. They don't give a fuck about anything but themselves. I see it all. They own everything, land, wealth, life itself. We’re nothing to them. Millions of us live, struggle, die, and they barely notice. There’s enough for everyone, but it never reaches us. We’re disposable, forgotten, collateral in their accumulation. Humanity is a resource they don’t need. And the system? It’s built to keep it that way. Cold. The Royal Family owns over 6.6 billion acres of land, more than a sixth of the planet. The Catholic Church owns 173 million acres worldwide. Countries like Russia, Canada, and China control massive tracts too. Russia’s natural resources are worth $75 trillion, the U.S.’s $45 trillion, and Saudi Arabia’s $34 trillion. And most people? We get scraps. There’s enough for everyone, but it flows only to them. It’s cold, deliberate, fucked up.

I hear you. I get that. I see how lucky and fortunate to even be alive in the 21st century alone is and a privilege to sit back and moan about ones situation. I'm emphasizing the starkness, absurdity and reality of power, resources and survival of the few among the many. I'm zooming out and seeing the absurdity of it all. It can be shocking

Must be good to be a rock haha. We supposed to be the most intelligent species on this planet and yet we have to pay to eat and live. Come on now!!!

I knew Leo was gonna hold the street signs on this one 😂 coordinate traffic

Basically I want to help people that have gone through taking so much LSD or psilocybin they have a really really bad trip, and I want to help them reframe the experience so they can get the most out of their trip. People don't know what's happening to them when it's happening to them, they just freak the f out and hold on for dear life. Thank you. I don't know why people believe money is evil or other conformist cliches like these, and I don't conflate spirituality with neglecting survival. I just don't want to trip in the dark while life passes me by. I guess I don't have to be trapped in the rat race with no clarity. When tripping, I step outside the survival game, but I still want to play. It's just that I don't take it so seriously because it's hollow, but I see everyone else scrambling, tooth n claw.

Is there a point in raising consciousness and development even if you don't have the resources and the power? Even if it doesn’t give you land, money, or political power? Basically what I'm getting at, is that I'm afraid that I won't be able to survive or acquire power while I take a step back, raise consciousness, see patterns and grow my awareness. Situation won't change while I'm tripping balls in the dark

I'll check it out lol. You are probably the only person other than myself that I am genuinely curious about haha

I like that. Question, have humans always centralized power? Are any new ideas in this domain worth considering or are they just pie in the sky, new age civilization and utopian fairytales? Are humans really this predictable?

Girl you on fire 🔥

No matter how much you play the game, your on their board. Even your retirement account is feeding into their portfolios

@Leo Gura Basically your grounding the discussion in realpolitik? one economic collapse, AI disruption, climate breakdown, or resource war and the paradise falls apart. I 💯 percent agree with you, compared to how brutal it is and was, I don't take my freedom and safety for granted at all. But I'm not gonna shut up and say it's perfect.

@Leo Gura there’s enough for everyone, but the way power has been organized makes sure it never reaches us. If this is the best we managed, it's a nightmare

To truly see beyond context, you’d have to fall outside of context, which ego interprets as groundlessness, nothingness, or death. Context is a convenience. A way of packaging the unpackaged. Ego is a web of meaning.

Follow me here. What is context? This will probably make your world fall apart hahah. Because what is context really? Context is something that is baked into your experience of reality. Everything is Context within a larger context within a larger context. Linguistic context, as in seeing what something means with words that could me something both ways or even three ways. Like saying " she saw her duck". That could mean she saw her pet duck or she was trying to avoid something. There are cultural context. Social context ect... Without context, Reality is this quantum soup of all potential. Unbounded awareness, infinite and is a simultaneous, paradoxical strangeloop. Context is what gives meaning to your life. You might say you don't care about context, but you obviously do because it's what gives rise to your sense of sanity, perception and gives order to your entire survival. This shit will really fuck with your head because this whole time we are living in a very specific context no matter how objective or common sense you feel it is, or scientific or realistic you think you are. You think your standing on the earth in space? That's a background context that keeps you from losing your fucking mind. You don't know anything other than what's gonna keep your ass alive, and context is what does that for you, it's what is holding your sense of reality. Everything is contextual. This is where mindfucks happen and insight occurs. You have to have a still mind to not get caught in or fall into the ocean of mind. You have to be meta contextual.

That's a context to a song, a long story through life or possibly an awesome movie 🤘😎

First and foremost I want to apologize, last time we interacted I came off a dick. I'm sorry. Yes, psychedelics do things that nothing else could, but it doesn't replace the practice, it enhances them if used responsibly. When was the last time you tripped? And why have you decided not to if you don't?

https://www.actualized.org/insights/actualized-quotes-296 What do you mean by that? Can you try to say something about that, trying to get a hit on that Seems like that insight hit you like a freight train. Throw me a Hadukan

Context in its purest form, is the condition of conditions, the infinite background in which all specific contexts arise.

What is this experience that we are having right now? Why colors? Why sounds? Why feels? What the fuck is all this? How is any of this possible? How am I able to be conscious of existence?

@Carl-Richard Mental masturbation is a trap we all fall into. But having the will and desire to understand something isn't something I take for granted. its not so much the intellectual knowledge of these philosophical contemplations I'm after, it's the direct hit of what these things are. It's the difference between looking at your fingers vs thinking and imagining about your fingers.

Danm. Life must be good

Go look at an Escher drawing 😂

An object is the context of it being that object. Context is the distinction of context. Emotions are sensations in the mind. The mind is not separate from the body. The body is something occuring in the Mind. I am open to the possibility of being directly conscious of the true nature of Context Beyond interpretation.

All context is imaginary and being imagined right now. Mind in the way I use it can only be grasped after you trip so hard you realize everything is mental. Inside and outside, emotions, thoughts and external reality are part of the same one Mind

@theleelajoker it's easy to conflate what I said from a certain point of view. I never said spirituality had to be this grueling path of hard work and chores, that was your conclusion out of what I wrote. Don't bullshit yourself, real work is real work and once you get disciplined and take action and do the things your ego mind tries to avoid, then you can let loose and have a bit of fun. It's like boxing, you master the fundamentals and then you can dance in the ring. You don't want to learn all the fancy footwork and dances because you'll get your head popped back and your ass handed to you real quick from a lack of balance, discipline and hard work.
