Deconstructing Rationality Coming Soon

33 posts in this topic

My deepest epistemic content on deconstructing rationality is almost ready to record and release. It will be a 3 part series analogous to the Deconstructing Science series but focused on deconstructing rationality and rationalism.

Will be ready within a week or two.

Excited to share it since it has been in development since like March.

Hell yeah I am looking forward to this. Balls to the wall 


It is far easier to trick someone, than to convince them they have been tricked.

@Leo Gura Nice!

Questions that come to mind: when is rationality a right epistemic tool? When does it go too far? What are the limits and scope of reason? Why and how is reason co-opted by the ego to justify its irrational biases? Why is rationality so idolized? what the hell is even reason and rationality? Is reality rational, or is reason just an epistemologically useful endeavour but limited?

 

It would be great if you briefly talked about atheism as well in the series. Maybe it merits having his own independent episode, but not having an episode on atheism is such a gap in Actualized.org right now, you should hammer more on atheism.

Also in your trilogies you tend to have a very slow start and the first episode tends to be too foundational for my taste, do the founding work it's important but gift pearls as well and get over it, otherwise it becomes a different flavour of similar past material (good for new users but repetitive for the serious philosophers that contemplate your work).

God-Realize, this is First Business. Know that unless I live properly, this is not possible.

There is this body, I should know the requirements of my body. This is first duty.  We have obligations towards others, loved ones, family, society, etc. Without material wealth we cannot do these things, for that a professional duty.

There is Mind; mind is tricky. Its higher nature should be nurtured, then Mind becomes Wise, Virtuous and AWAKE. When all Duties are continuously fulfilled, then life becomes steady. In this steady life GOD is available; via 5-MeO-DMT, because The Sun shines through All: Living in Self-Love, Realizing I am Infinity & I am God

Thanks for sharing! I truly loved the series Deconstructing The Myth Of Science, so I'm really looking forward to this one.

The irony is that to deconstruct rationality you’re using rationality to deconstruct it, aren’t you? Meta-Rationality. It’s like trying to deconstruct thought with thought.

“Our most valuable resource is not time, but rather it is consciousness itself. Consciousness is the basis for everything, and without it, there could be no time and no resource possible. It is only through consciousness and its cultivation that one’s passions, one’s focus, one’s curiosity, one’s time, and one’s capacity to love can be actualized and lived to the fullest.” - r0ckyreed

@Leo Gura Not to get too ahead of ourselves- but I can see this three part series being a great segue into a video on insanity .. the opposite of rationality xD

It's not an irony. Proper rationality self-reflects and recognizes its own limitations.

That's super old.

This will be much more sophisticated.

I m the most enlightened being

I see nothing but the matrix of my own interpretation, encoded by the most adaptable delusions born from the survival-based genetic scam that shaped my conditioning.

---

your last video was great, you're becoming a great actor, and you shall absolutely play in my ai future movies.
conformity was a fun vibe to spin around.

Also it was fun that you think survival must be handled through work, it can be hacked if you're already free from conformist bullshit, which is highly based on genetic ( and environment absolutely ), EU have it way too good and post survival already, indeed.

I think you're slightly delusional on the "it can be taught" conformity is probably entirely genetic and can't be learned.
Since I m young, my brain just never computed mainstream information and always switched on a side lined understanding, it was like this since I m 6.
I had 0 effort or practice to integrate to be far off the herd, it was just natural to me.

Converting from Leo time to human time: 1-2 years 


"Not believing your own thoughts, you’re free from the primal desire: the thought that reality should be different than it is. You realise the wordless, the unthinkable. You understand that any mystery is only what you yourself have created. In fact, there’s no mystery. Everything is as clear as day. It’s simple, because there really isn’t anything. There’s only the story appearing now. And not even that.” — Byron Katie

Thanks Leo! I'm excited to watch it.

Do you plan on releasing one part per week or some other schedule?

What you know leaves what you don't know and what you don't know is all there is.
