If ignorance is truly bliss, then why do so many Americans need Prozac?
I see McDonalds, I think of this song [Link]
Putin has consistently demonstrated a much higher level of rationality, knowledge and connection with his countrymen than any western leader has...
Another great bloody big yawn of a needless undertaking by all the usual suspects for all the usual shop worn "reasons"...
Nobody is taking Macron seriously. He has lost the plot with his insane suggestions about sending French troops into the Ukrainian meat grinder....
... It's a shame those people had to go through that. I'm glad they are alive.

Amazing feat that so many dots have been joined together by these hard working, and incredible people (interviewers included). Such an honorable service to humanity, thank you.
The only tragedy is that the audience is already converted. I hope it has much further reach.
One man’s Terrorist is another man’s Freedom Fighter. If any system’s dogma/gestalt is corrupted by both sides (and it is), Freewill is what they fear b/c of the conscious awareness & ‘molting” process that reveals beneath the veils of deception of the multiverse (demiurge/Plato’s Cave).
Freewill allows the Spirit/Soul to manifest & go beyond the paradigm in place towards other possibilities. Freedom presumes a choice & change but not necessarily is a Soul/Spirit released or free from the gestalt/dogma system in place.
The Dionysius the Areopagite is available to download, and it is short. The Boehme dialogs are available online but not the Arthur team translation.
It is interesting how the Christian mystics, like Mechthild de Magdeburg, and the Sufi mystics, were all persecuted by the religious orthodoxy. Dogma attacks true experience.
In the Sufi tradition, Rumi uses the term cutting off your head, your human intelligence, to know the truth. In the Zen tradition it is attaining the state of "no mind". In the Tao tradition you must empty yourself in order to fill yourself.
Quote from Dionysis: "Surely it is truer to affirm that God is life and goodness than that He is air or stone, and truer to deny that drunkenness or fury can be attributed to Him than to deny that we may apply to Him the categories of human thought."

Thanks for this interview Harrison and recommendation it has opened up a whole world of possibilities,
The Guest is inside you, and also inside me;
you know the sprout is hidden inside the seed.
We are all struggling; none of us has gone far.
Let your arrogance go, and look around inside.
The blue sky opens out farther and farther,
the daily sense of failure goes away,
the damage I have done to myself fades,
a million suns come forward with light,
when I sit firmly in that world.
I hear bells ringing that no one has shaken,
inside "love" there is more joy than we know of,
rain pours down, although the sky is clear of clouds,
there are whole rivers of light.
The universe is shot through in all parts by a single sort of love.
How hard it is to feel that joy in all our four bodies!
Those who hope to be reasonable about it fail.
The arrogance of reason has separated us from that love.
With the word "reason" you already feel miles away.
How lucky Kabir is, that surrounded by all this joy
he sings inside his own little boat.
His poems amount to one soul meeting another.
These songs are about forgetting dying and loss.
They rise above both coming in and going out.
There is nothing but water in the holy pools.
I know, I have been swimming in them.
All the gods sculpted of wood or ivory can't say a word.
I know, I have been crying out to them.
The Sacred Books of the East are nothing but words.
I looked through their covers one day sideways.
What Kabir talks of is only what he has lived through.
If you have not lived through something, it is not true.
Who nose. Lol

(laangt laangt borte in #language means far far away in another laanguaage)
You spoonfed us Saturday morning mouthfuls of maggots and lies
disguised in your sugary breakfast cereals. The plates you made
us clean were filled with YOUR fears. These things have
hardened in our soft pink bellies. We are what YOU have made
us. We have grown up watching YOUR television. We are a
symptom of YOUR Christian America, the biggest Satan of all.
This is YOUR world in which we grow, and we will grow to hate
you. Hallelujah, motherfucker!"/i]
(should i dump them, persue "growing in consciousness")?
i think «dumping» people one disagrees with is contradictional to growing consciosness.
imo, those things are personal choises/oppinions more than anything else.
thank you for being frank/personal/open 🥰
