What about consumption? I would argue that for a lot of people now thinking has largely been suspended and life largely consists of work and media consumption, online shopping etc etc

If AI negates the need for thinking would this not just push people into hyper-consumption as opposed to body awareness? Even less time thinking and even more time consuming

Especially because embodiment is incredibly dangerous to the capitalists, the Zionists and all manner of elite class demons - it shrinks our petty (ideological) grievances with each other and creates human unity - and we all know the thing the elites fear the most is human unity

Curious as to your thoughts

I'm sure a lot of people will choose the easy path, for sure, and just consume and take comfort. But that is anyway the case.

True! I wonder how we best can push fellow westerners into this direction - the desire for radical/transformational change always seems to get co-opted by increasingly niche ideologies and their respective organisations or spiritual charlatans

Enjoyed reading that. Thanks Dev. One point, I'm not sure all Westerners feel guilt. Seems to the thing that cleaves our politics though.

Please find two references on the Pleasure Dome as organized/structured water the author of which is the Water Bearer.

I recently drew a drawing of a theater stage , a stage built like a soap box , on the beach , But the stage is a stage of a beach scene , with the ocean and moon behind , and on the stage is a mermaid , a mergirl , with a fish , and the fish is drawn with the eye as an X , and the x is the x of that mark where you stand and say your line , she is seated as she doesn't have legs , only a fishes body from the waist down . And the mergirl is crying , two tears falling . The beach that the theater stage is on , also has the night sky and a crescent moon , just as the back drop of the stage has a giant crescent moon and many stars , and the crashing waves , just like the terrain it is set upon . After I drew this , I wondered at it , as I normally don't think in terms of sadness much less tears . ... Now , after reading this essay of yours , I am going to contemplate if this collective grief is similar in nature to the blood shed on the cross by Jesus , but because we are in the dawning of the age of Aquarius , we must have tears falling in compassion , rather than a voluntary scapegoat of sacrifice . I myself have been saying to the younger generation " I am so sorry for my generation to yours " and yet , at the same time , I laugh and challenge them with questions and they listen to me , they know that I really do care about them . ( the up and coming generation ) It is all about "Being Water My Friend " - Bruce Lee , and understanding the nature of water , the laws , and the incredible mystery that water poses to us . Where as before , we were fish in it , it is possible that now , we are conscious creators of water - even if it is merely a few drops squeezed out of our eyes .

very interesting insites, one question

now the age of Aquarius is upon us ,

will the seasons shift ?

what i mean is our cardinal signs of Aquarius, Scorpio, Leo and Torus

will they now become Capricorn, Libra, Cancer and Aries?

Just a thought ?

Cheers

Thanks. I remember in gnosticism they had the fixed mutable and cardinal crosses
