A couple of books to look forward to by Bernardo Kastrup: - Science Ideated - Decoding Jung’s Metaphysics (already on sale)

@allislove “there is no trying…” just kidding straightforward and grounded. Thank you.

@Nahm sure, sure.

My mind, perhaps mind in general, prefers to keep this work intellectual. Don’t know why it resists serious contemplation/experiential inquiry. It’s much easier to keep it intellectual, just reading Ken Wilber or similar and believing what is said. Just something I’ve been noticing for years now. I know Leo posted a video on resistance. But maybe this communication helps people notice overlooked resistance in their lives. Intellect is a secondary aspect of consciousness work

Enlightened farts don’t suffer.

INTP books usually portrait this personality type as the “philosopher”, one that highly values metaphysical Truth and understanding. I think we’re the more intelectual type, for better or for worse. INTP books: The INTP Quest and The INTP by the same author.

Better to ask first: What is Consciousness? Who am I? What am I really? What is that (‘that’ being your experience of the object )? Maybe there’s nothing ‘there’. Then maybe the assumptions from which your question is made are seen as fundamentally false.

@Leo Gura I prefer to call it Bliss, not pleasure.

Also distinctions, conscious learning, and education. The creative nature of existence.

@AlphaAbundance Scrivener? Naah… @Aaron p not about the book itself, but about how little the majority of people care — in a global sense. Or I misinterpreted Leo. @Leo Gura What about publishing a shorter one first, like the one on psychedelics?

That’s probably a safe assumption to make. I don’t know of any, sorry.

Andrew Cutler is often mentioned in this forum relative to that matter. Maybe it’s useful to try his methodologies.
