RE Pan-Determinism:
I once had a Jamaican waitress neatly pan-determine me to very gratefully slip her a $20 bill (at a buffet restaurant where all she did was say hello a few times). It wasn't until I heard her brag to another (Jamaican) waitress how she did that to me that I realized what she had done to me, and that sort of broke the spell (and my ego too). It didn't seem like her heart was really in the right place (not a win/win player). It seemed more she was just enjoying the power to mess with my mind, of which I myself have done plenty of that too and thoroughly enjoyed it in my days as a big dumb spirit :-)) However it would be a great delight to see a big, wise being pan-determine towards a new economy or system that makes the old win/lose, lose/lose economies obsolete, and thus make for a merrier life for meat bodies on this planet. Yes, by all means, choreograph us all into a win/win dance of life. A master games player lets the people think it was their own idea. I'm still at the stage of ferreting out my win/lose and lose/lose decisions/personas, while tasking myself with win/win scenarios, so I would not be a clean pan-determiner yet, but once one is clean on their win/win postulates it would put them in a whole new ball-park re games play. Exciting to contemplate. colleen
