Plz try this experiment in your sleep

2 posts in this topic

Before you fall asleep, up to the point of leading into it, try focusing on a single word. Pick any word, a name, a place, an object... Then go to sleep and imagine talking to a man or a woman, a normal human being.

Then have them either come up withtheir own word based on that, or have yourself repeat the word back to them (engaging in like a *single word conversation). And just go deeper into that experiment. Eventually, so long as youve gotten it right (and it may take time) you should have a tough time distinguishing the original word.

Like, its essense and separation should suddenly find itself dependent on a feeling you had assoc. w/, . and upon finding yourself in a dream context, is no longer recognizable. And again, its to the point where its like, you can be holding two words that are like "best options"... "two of the closest words in the spectrum", And neither will validate theirselves as matching that original felt word. Like it naturally slides away, and im not sure theres a destination there, but a realization bout the essence of a thing, and the confusion we live in, which is not to say that you are *suppose to be confused all the time either. Its just weird.

Paraphrase from Poimandres (Corpus Hermeticum): "... that which is in the Word is also in ourselves."

Greek Magical Papyri (PGM): "I call upon the Word of the All, that which binds heaven and earth, and let it manifest in the circle."

Plato – Cratylus (439–440): "A name is a likeness of the thing itself; if rightly spoken, it carries the essence of what it names."

You think the person was you in that state. How do you know they weren't your artificially generated clone from false memories?
