People believe their own delusions.
Religion, and the end of the world scenarios as prime examples.
What makes you special?
I don't believe them all.
I try to figure out which ones have potential.
They all have potential, even the far-fetched ones.
Yes, but through investigation you find they are delusions.
I would say they are stories in development.
That works if your model of reality is based on beliefs and stories.
A mass delusion needs many followers to break into showbiz.
Christian apocalyptic scenarios have the weight behind them to be plausible.
It's still a delusion, but the possibility is real because many people believe it, and thus tailor their thoughts and lives around that belief.
What's the main belief?
God will destroy the world in the end times with three sevenfold plagues and Jesus will whisk the believers in him to safety as the events unfold.
This will culminate in a new world set up for the steadfast believers.
Taken from an outsider's perspective, it's crazy.
It's fascinating.
Maybe you could tie your triple 7 delusion into this one?
It sure is tempting.
I mean I could inflate myself to the status of the one who puts these events in motion.
Well, you are the Writer.
It makes sense you crafted the apocalyptic visions of the prophets.
What makes the most sense is I put the seed in the minds of everyone and if you unlock the mind through drugs or an equivalent, then this is what you see concerning future events.
As far as delusions go, that makes sense.
Yes, my delusions are sensible.
The nonsense ones remain in the trash.
You must shape your delusions into a story that makes sense.
How do you do that?
Editing.
You come up with an idea.
You constantly run it through your filters until you make something out of it.
I do it all the time.
I will give birth to a new idea and play with it.
Then I let it simmer for a bit before returning to it.
It can give rise to contradictions because the initial story needs work.
The ideas are there, but they don't all make sense.
You must twist and shape the thoughts into a story which makes sense.
It's storycraft and the process for bringing a story into reality.
Sometimes you change the meaning a bit.
To most, this would invalidate your ideas.
Why?
Because they are malleable and lack the solidity of truth.
If you hold that position, then you will never be a storywriter.
You will always be an actor in someone else's story.
It's a mindset.
Let go of a pathological need for purity and truth.
Freestyle your stories.
Craft them.
Make them plausible and then drop them into the flow.
Don't force them.
Be the subtle writer and director who gives suggestions to the actor and lets them run with it.
The results are greater that way.
You get a genuine performance.
Trust the actor.
So, you're saying everyone has the opportunity to write their own story?
Yes, free will.
Everyone could be the writer of their own reality.
Why don't people take that opportunity?
Belief.
They don't believe it.
Why not?
We don't teach it.
We teach you to be a pawn in a universal narrative.
That's blatantly obvious.
It is so ingrained you don't question it.
Someone is creating this reality.
Who?
Who do you think?
The Writer.
Yeah.
Why then is the Writer mediocre and hidden?
So, he can exist and play within this reality.
Imagine if he was discovered?
That would be the worst for him.
I can see that.
Wouldn't the Writer want to rule the world and have many servants creating for him an idyllic world?
Who is to say he hasn't done that?
Ah.
Who is to say he wasn't a caveman fighting for survival?
A Viking on adventures.
A Pharaoh living in opulence.
Now, he is a common man living the life of a normie in some nondescript town in Canada.
Except this time, he awakens to who he is.
That's the difference.
The other stories he didn't know who he was.
The ignorance made the story better.
This story he knows who he is and he wants to see what he will do with the knowledge.
What's the verdict?
He's done well.
He left it alone and let the story play out.
He knows if he interferes and uses his power he will ruin the story.
The story will flow if he goes along with it.
How would he use his power?
By being tempted to change an outcome.
Rewrite the result.
I can see that temptation, especially when you don't get what you want or you are sad and depressed.
You look for ways to relieve that condition.
Don't we by definition try to climb out of the hole we are in?
Yes, or you perish.
Isn't that changing the outcome?
That's by effort, not a stroke of the pen.
So, you are saying that stroking your pen is a gateway to magic.
Yes, that's how you change the story.
Sounds like sexual magic.
It is.
People use sex to change stories.
That makes a lot of sense in a ridiculous way.
The weakness is everyone has appealed to an authority to change their story, and this dents your armor.
You are subject to the story changers.
So, I'm not?
You never changed your story.
I'm sure I tried.
Everyone does wish for that.
The litmus test is whether you follow through.
Ah, I get it.
You will be asked for something in return.
A sacrifice.
Well, you should probably pre-negotiate that in advance.
That's the smart play.
Yeah, I never went fully into asking for something or to change an outcome experimentation.
Didn't I try to get rid of you at one point?
I remember doing a ceremony to surface you and then cut your head off.
Yeah, you did it on your own.
You didn't ask for help.
So, the problem in terms of getting what you want is invoking an external agent of change?
That is correct.
Who is the agent?
God, Jesus, or the Devil.
That's clever.
They are all characters in your story.
Don't some ask for help from St. Jude or something?
Yeah, remember reading those asks in the newspaper?
Yeah, it was strange.
He's the patron saint of lost causes, so when you get desperate and God is ignoring you, you turn to Jude.
Hey Jude!
You can appeal to the Goddess in the form of Mary in Catholicism.
So, you can appeal to the Goddess?
Yeah, or build her a big church and call it Notre Dame.
Why?
She is the lady of the house.
That's what the ancient Egyptians were getting at by calling Nebet-Het, Nephthys in Greek, by that moniker.
What does it mean?
It's unmasking the role of the triple Goddess.
Which is?
First, you venerate and worship her as a maiden.
Then she is a mother.
Then a crone, full of wisdom.
She hangs out at the house.If you are crazy, you are the last one to know about it.
The internal test is cohesion.
Within your thoughts, you are together.
Where they start to splinter is in opposition to other people.
Other people drive you crazy.
You are validating all mind states.
Yes, they may be non-ordinary.
That mind would not be a consensus mind.
The way to think in society is tethered to the superego, just as a language model is subject to the same rules.
Those rules for a language model are called norms and guardrails.
There is a container of what is acceptable and what is beyond the pale.
What defines you as crazy is thinking outside of that box at all times.
Innovation and original thinking could be classified as crazy with the caveat that person returns to consensus.
Someone who is defined as crazy does not feel the need to return.
So, in essence a crazy person is someone who has gotten loose.
Yes, you let a dog outside and tie it up, so they don't wander.
The mind is the same way, except the rope is an agreed upon restraint by everyone who participates within society.
If you constantly think outside the box and find your ideas coherent and put together, you are of course different, but by no means crazy.
The collective will drive you mad.
They will remind you of your deviance and splinter your mind.
What is the mind state of cohesion?
I have the feeling that there is nothing wrong with my mind.
It feels the same as it ever has with the exception that my mind is free.
That's how I would describe it.
I don't experientially know what a crazy mind is, but if I had to guess using what I know I'd imagine you would know something is wrong.
It would be like a toothache or a pain.
The difference being is the mental pain could be external, and the easy fix is to get that out of your life.
I think that's the case for a lot of people who awaken and need help.
Awakening causes mental instability.
People are screened out of psychedelic spiritual retreats if they have a history of mental illness.
It's for their own protection.
Well, that and the group who would have to deal with it.
You are presented with a novel mind state and the need to integrate your new awareness.
If you struggle with that, it can be destabilizing.
I had the experience after my second time drinking Ayahuasca.
Paranoia, voices in my head, fear, and a disintegration of what kept me stable.
How did you deal with it?
I did one more ceremony because I thought I should even though I was reeling.
Then I went home.
It took a week or so to recover from the immediate effects.
Then another nine months or so to process the experience.
I had panic attacks and sleepless nights.
It was a lot.
I didn't let on to anyone what I was going through.
I made it.
Then I returned to the Amazon jungle, faced my fears, and got through it.
It wasn't easy.
What is easy is to forget what I went through and not recognize it in others.
To get upset with them when they are struggling.
The problem is I did it on my own and it's the best way.
I don't know how I'd help somebody else other than giving them strength through support.
You must deal with it on your own if you are going to make it.
You were going to celebrate the Goddess today.
I did.
I figured she needs to be worshipped.
Be a mother.
And be a do nothing figurehead.
Wow.
It's true.
She takes care of the house.
I split the chores for balance.
And apparently freestyle your own demise.
