Beagles are my favorite dog, along with Aussies . My girl may have been either an australian shepherd mix or a heeler mix . 
 

beagles are just the best. They're the most common dog in lab research, so there are alot of lab rescue beagles out there .

 

Spiral dynamics reaction to beagle testing 

 

Green:

Outrage

 

Turquoise 

Profound compassion. beagle testing is a necessary evil in the evolution of consciousness .

They're all just words for the same thing . Truth is simply what is, and it transfers its being through them .

Will’s Eightfold Ontological Cascade

 

 

 

 

Truth

 

 

Definition. Truth is posited as the aphilos (ἀφιλός) or underived principle: non-dual, trans-categorical, and ontologically prior to all modal determinations.

Function. It serves as the necessary and sufficient ground (grund) for all subsequent instantiations without itself being conditioned.

Analogues. Plotinian Hen, Advaitic nirguṇa Brahman, and the medieval concept of ipsum esse subsistens.

 

 

 

 

2. Love

 

 

Definition. Love is construed as the primal energetic differentiation within Truth—a vectorial self-expression rather than an affective state.

Dependency. Love presupposes Truth as its ontic substrate while introducing relationality (pros hen).

Analogues. Eriugena’s processio, the Neoplatonic eros of Porphyry, and Schelling’s Ungrund in its dynamic aspect.

 

 

 

 

3. God

 

 

Definition. God denotes the reflexive self-awareness of Love, i.e., the moment at which the self-expressive impulse becomes cognitively luminous.

Dependency. God is intelligible only as Love’s self-recognition; devoid of Love, “God” lapses into a reified abstraction.

Analogues. Saguna Brahman, Proclean Nous, and the Hegelian Geist in its logical immediacy.

 

 

 

 

 

4. Intelligence

 

 

Definition. Intelligence is the formal, law-like articulation (logos) operative within consciousness—responsible for order, teleology, and coherent differentiation.

Dependency. As the structuring principle, Intelligence presumes consciousness for its intentional domain yet informs it with determinate relations.

Analogues. Anaxagorean Nous, Whiteheadian Eternal Objects, and Peircean Thirdness.

 

5. Consciousness

 

 

Definition. Consciousness is the phenomenological field in which the God-relation is instantiated as the possibility of experience.

Dependency. It relies on God as its transcendental condition of givenness while providing the site for individuation.

Analogues. Husserlian Lebenswelt (in a broadened sense) and Aurobindo’s Supermind prior to its partitioning.

 

 

 

 

 

6. Contact

 

 

Definition. Contact designates the bidirectional interface between finite centers of awareness and the infinite ground—phenomenologically manifest as mystical union or noetic intuition.

Dependency. It presupposes Intelligence (for cognitive tractability) and simultaneously re-opens the finite to its infinite antecedent.

Analogues. Nishitani’s prajñāic breakthrough and Plotinus’ epistrophe.

 

 

 

 

7. Perception

 

 

Definition. Perception is the concretized act whereby contact yields determinate appearances—qualia imbued with intelligible form.

Dependency. It is conditioned by contact for its transcendental horizon and by intelligence for its categorial organization.

Analogues. Kantian Anschauung after the application of the categories; Merleau-Ponty’s perceptual faith.

 

 

 

 

8. Being

 

 

Definition. Being is the enacted actuality of entities within spatio-temporal horizons—the terminus of the cascading articulation of the Absolute.

Dependency. Being integrates all prior stages as constitutive dimensions of its manifestation; absent these, “existence” remains conceptually vacuous.

Analogues. Heideggerian Sein-als-Anwesenheit and Aquinas’ participatio entis.

 

 

 

 

Systemic Dynamics

 

 

Although presented linearly for analytic clarity, the model is recursive: perceptual Being can initiate a dialectical return (ἐπιστροφή) through re-activation of Contact, culminating in re-cognition of Truth. Thus, the schema supports both emanationist and reintegrative interpretations.

My kratom use has gotten way out of control, I spend up to $50 a day and now I'm catching myself fantasizing about how aesthetic it would be to nod out on real opioids.... time to stop. 

Somehow even though the retreat didnt fix my addiction I feel it gave me more power to choose where I direct my energy.

My advice to anyone who hasn't tried drugs yet would be just don't. Take psychedelics occasionally, fuck the rest. Don't end up like me, and I'm not even that bad, but still. It will eat your soul from the inside out. I feel like all the spiritual work I do is compensating for my addiction.

 

Fuck do I need to go to rehab? That to me would be way, way scarier than spending a week meditating 10 hours a day. 
 

I genuinely am shocked I ever got to this point. It snuck up on me in the last year . When I relapsed immediately after my retreat, that's how I found out just how hooked I was. The fact that my brain even wants to entertain fantasies of doing harder stuff is a huge red flag, and honestly terrifying.
