if Donald Hoffman finds a way and is proven correct, would that not cause mass suicides. If 3D spacetime is just a headset, why not take it off and try something new? There are more and more themes about self-termination today, in movies, and even Canada offers a suicide box that you can exit from, free of charge.

right, *I* am the headset, if the headset gets destroyed, so do I? Why doesn't ever stress that more, instead he says your consciousness can go try on other headsets in the higher realms. Kooky.

This shit is just a degenerate form of Kabbalah and Hermetic / gnostic ideas. They essentially rebranded and diluted ancient ideas and delivered them ina poisoned and delusional form where they would remain authorities, via their positions within mathematical physics. Quantum, wavefunction, renormalization, blah blah blah shut the fuck up. Theologians and ancient people traced all this stuff out a milennia or two ago. Science is the dominant religion today, so as the priest class these fags are diversifying and widening their net.

I hate them, I hate their voices, I hate their stupid faces with their stupid expressions and their stupid body language their stupid micromovements and signaling. They're disgusting, broken, miserable creatures and empty vessels that fuckin' creep me out. Same with Tom Campbell. Bob Monroe was at least honest and relatively scientific in his explorations, and he basically arrives at something close to classical gnosticism and what we'd consider "The Matrix" today. Some neoplatonic and monistic ideas. The loosh farm concept fits right in with the demiurge, hylic psychics and pneumatics, and so on.

The "reality is a headset" metaphor is the most dead end braindead normie narrative possible. IT's a syncretism in the worst sense possible. I consider it to be a form of poison, administered into a burgeoning quasi-awakening, quite deliberately. Little bit of truth, little bit of lie, just like the Christ concept and the way non-attachment goes on in buddhism. Little bit of truth, little bit of poison, keeps you trapped and running ont he wheel one way or another.

Yeah. Basically tl;dr: fuck that guy. It would be nice to not see his retarded and obnoxious looking face in my recommended all the time also. Like who even looks like that? Really. Just look at his eyes, and his upper lip. Slimy fuck. Primordial repulsion for these golem, these beasts in human form.

If reality is a headset you have to ask whether you have a real(er) body or basis somewhere else, and what "you" are when you take the "headset" off. Do you pull the cable out of theback of your head and wake up in the matrix pod? Is it like ExistenZ and we're in a shared dream, and you take the device off your head and all wake up? Are you alone here and they're all NPCs, or they're all parts of you? Is the world a highly diffuse (through both space and time, ie nonlinear time and reverse causation) kaleidoscopic hall of mirrors which is basically just your mind put through a prism and turned outside, always reflecting you to you? In that sense you would be a "fountain of infinite mirrors". Or is it a loosh farm, all of this is a distraction designed to drain the life out of you.

Ancient people had already figured out "the matrix", they encoded it in mythology. The story of Selene is one example or "life is but a dream", the story of Adam Lilith and Eve is another example. Adam is your conscious mind, Earth is your unconscious mind, Lilith is an unseen and omnipresent modulatory layer and part of your "Anima" (brtidge to the unconscious mind) who works to cause you to create "Eve" (sensory reality, a dream, a fantasy world). This explains why the universe just gives you more of whatever you react to the most, and it responds to you when you "Wake up" and invert the flow of attention. It starts reacting to you isntead until it's lulled and hypnotized you with something. That's all it's about. Lilith being "on top" is just man in a state of unconsciousness with regard to his imagination, thoughts, and works in the world, encoded in the language of symbols (the sexes and sex, which we all know gestates like seeds planted ina field and births something new). This is also why Lilith is cast out of the garden (rendered invisible and unconscious), and in this state she creates demons. Just like ignorance in man, creating one's own hell.

>> No.16079262

>>16079249
Character limit.

All I'll say is that all of this is testable. Stop reacting to your mind and senses, either enter a state of no reaction to the world or strictly reacting to your own imagination. Decide life is a dream, truly believe it, and try to wake up. Become lucid. Maintain this, deeply. You'll find something out there begins to "move" and act through various things to try to get your attention, hypnotize you, make you believe in it, react to it, etc. It'll send people to you, it'll drop things in your lap, it'll cause bizarre chance encounters. Anything to get you to engage with the world and the senses again. After you do, the flow of attention is reestablished, you are giving Lilith all of your attention via Eve again, and that's the gist of it. The Matrix. Lilith essentially has autism and BPD. She "loves" you ion the only way she's able, anything you react to emotionally and engage with, she assumes it's because you like it and want more of it. So it creates more. Alternatively this is a loosh farm optimizing based on psychometrics and emotional reaction patterns, weighing out how to tap and drain over the long term for max refined loosh output. It'll torture you if you're not careful, maim and drain is the name of the game.
