"I quite agree with you. And the moral of that is: Be what you would seem to
be, or if you'd like it put more simply: Never imagine yourself not to be

have been was not otherwise than what you had been would have appeared to
them to be otherwise."

Subject: Re: [MD] moq thought experiement 1.
Hi Gav,
There's allot going on here, but i have experienced this so i understand.
Or think i do.
But there is a problem:
'...the voice that some subtle souls realise isn't them!!!'
This implies there IS an authentic you, and i agree with this also. Or
think i do.
However, non of this changes the fact that babies are fully present, and
i've been told by those who feel they know, that being fully present is
what zennies aim for. This may mean that zennies don't give a fuck about
being an agent of evolution either, and in a sense i think i understand
that. If it is so.
I am just wondering. Just letting thoughts wander. And i can see that the
baby in us all doesn't ever go away. There are moments when i seem to
disappear and i am the baby again. It seems that everything that i think
has happened could vanish.

babies are pure like animals; they are fully present, free of the
reification
that passes for reality in the adult world.
this simulacrum has a function however - everything does. everything is as
it is
- as it should be. the function is the *isolation of the individual*;
solipsism
is a term used pejoratively to dismiss the purpose of self-conscious
awareness:
alienation is a waystation on the road to authenticity. gotta go through
hell to
get to heaven; the hero's journey is fundamentally *a solo thing*.
so we get alienated, depressed, isolated, scared, depressed, desperate,
suicidal, angry, frustrated, alone....and we go through this....we walk
through
the fire and how we walk through determines how long the fire lasts.
the separation allows us to disenage from the collective entity that seeks
our
submission - the egregor. its voice is the voice in our heads; the voice
that
some subtle souls realise isn't them!!! and they are pronounced shizo
rather
than aware. ha!!
when life craps on your face you don't give a fuck about keeping up
appearances
anymore and you free yourself from the egregious machinations of the
machine
head....now the journey turns the hairpin and we rejoin the collectivity -
but
this time as an 'agent of evolution'; babies are not agents of evolution.
being an agent of evolution is fun....you get a '00' number and license to
confuse.
love and daggers
