William Wyatt replied to William Wyatt's topic in Introduce Yourself!
Thank you greatly, It's really inspiring to receive praise from someone who shares such profound world views. You're right, it is a bedroom recording on my mobile phone. So I of course have a long way to develop psychologically and physically, but I am very happy to have come this far. I also ask people to acknowledge that I may not always define things correctly or empirically due to my lack of knowledge and experience, So I might say one thing, but mean another. But I would like to engage meaningfully with other people, including Stefan, which would most probably be on one of his podcasts, so developing clarity would be important for that interaction due to its time reliant nature.Now that I've read further I've come to a breakthrough personal discovery, that what I was roughly describing earlier is actually known to as a the concept of collective unconscious. Do you or anybody else have any views on this?First proposed by Carl Jung, An earlier concept derived from eastern philosophy is that of the cosmic consciousness. I looked up ties with these things and Stefan's videos and I couldn't find any. I would really love to hear his views on it, I am still an apprentice in terms of my understand of Stefan and his wife's system of psychology. With great respect, I still find myself at odds with some aspects of some of it, which I can't quite describe in empirical detail, perhaps due to a lack of understanding. It is possibly just an emotional disagreement with some of his expressions. I suppose you could say I believe these views could compliment each other as what I perceive to be forms of evolutionary psychology and philosophy in my unschooled definition of those words.Don't mistake me for directly advocating substance dualism, another concept I know only limited aspect about, but I'm metaphorically comparing all of these fundamental ideas/things and how they interact:Free Will - Determinism, Pragmatism - Principles,The Individual - The Collective, Left Brain - Right Brain. Logic- Emotional, Sharp - Flat, Light - Dark, Particles and Waves, Yin and Yang + - 1 2 0.reveal the within me, reveal the war right nowreveal the war within you, let's bring it down...reveal the hierarchy, for what they areabusers of the power, that's in us all... -
I am a 20 year old singer-songwriter from Brisbane starting off my music project 'State of Nature'. Taking influence from artists such as Pink Floyd, Tool and The Cure, I see it as progressive music, but in a more philosophical sense. A means of healing and personal development through artistic expression. A rejection of the hierarchy, elitism and coercion by monopolized institutions. Progressing towards the idea that all interactions between human beings should be voluntary, our actions only dictated by our minds, the universe, or as I like to call it the 'State of Nature'.Here is a link my my latest song If you're interested.https://soundcloud.com/will-wyatt-4/reveal-william-wyatt-originalI have been listening to Stefan for a while which has of course had a profound impact on my life. I would just like to interact with people who could offer me some guidance. I already make a decent living from busking and playing gigs, but my goals is to have an elaborate stage production, developed in a grassroots way, as opposed to relying on the major label music industry that crushes so many great artist. I am not a very logically intelligent fellow, more of an INFP, but I must strive towards these passions, because one day I am going to die...Some personal distinctions from Stefan: I'm a philosophical voluntaryist, not exclusively ancap. I mostly identify as an agnostic pantheist, but still pretty atheistic leaning on the logical side. I merely believe pantheism and spirituality to be a metaphorical form of right brain psychotherapy for people who struggle with existential angst. As I interpret to be the views of people like Alan Watts, Einstein and Carl Jung.

You seem like more of an INFP to me, welcome . So you support the somewhat nihilistic eastern philosophy then? and seek ego death as the ultimate form of psychological awakening?

Yeah Here is a link to my song . The song is a bit dirgy, so I still have a long way to heal and develop so I can convey voluntarism. The recording is on a phone doesn't particularly do justice to my guitar technicality since I was mainly focusing on my vocal performance. but at least now that I'm making a living off music the only way is up, I can buy some high quality gear to get the perfect sound.and I'm really glad you can see what I'm talking about. But you are definitely right, he can be a really good feeler at times, especially in his more all encompassing videos like 'the story of your enslavement' and 'the sunset of the state'. I've heard him sing before, really smooth jazzy croon I heard in his 'summertime' song. Would love to hear his rendition of wish you were here. was the podcast in question uploaded to youtube?

Both connect to me on that plain, but I think I lean slightly more to INFP. I am a 20 year old singer and songwriter, and I make a good living out of busking. I desire to further my music project State of Nature. I see it as as progressive music, but in a more philosophical sense. A means of healing and personal development through artistic expression. A rejection of the elitism, hierarchy, and coercion by monopolized institutions. Progressing towards the idea that all interactions between human beings should be completely voluntary, our actions only dictated by our minds, the universe, or as I like to call it the 'State of Nature'. So in that sense I seek both Truth and and Expression, but I'm not the most logically intellegent guy. I failed mathemathics all through high school, I would get C's or B's on the assignments, and D's on the tests. I haven't read a lot of books, and I'm a little uncoordinated due to my lazy eye. I seek such a definitive all encompassing truth that I sometimes don't even know where to begin to start developing my own philosophy. I could use a little more discipline and education. My only dissagreement is not of his ideas, but of some of his slightly cold attitudes when he criticizes and makes little jokes out of young people. kids who are already have their mentality outside of this statist system, but are even worse off due to there social awkwardness and lack of physical fitness. I can't refference the exact video, but he talks these 'noodle armed youths" as if he's making fun of them. I know he is correct, and it is good to acknowledge their wrongdoings, but I feel if he would react to them in a way which was more sympathetic, perhaps they would be swayed more towards the voluntaryist path. So it's just some of his cold dissconected attitudes towards a few little things that i cna see in a few of his videos. But maybe I'm just a bit of bleeding heart haha, this connects to my perception of stefan perhaps being more INTJ. I just think he could use more feeling. Maybe even some deep philosophical entrancing music to back his videos to draw in more artists and muso's, after all, Tool and Pink Floyd were the begining of my awakening to philosophy. Another example would be a few of the things in the Justin Beiber video, sure he is right about beiber, and perhaps I would accept the millions if I were him. But I'd do my best to avoid making a empty pop album, instead I'd try to promote voluntaryism and create something truly epic haha, mindgasmic light shows, prancing around dressed in colouful capes and such, 12 string guitars, mystical, resonant and well ranging vocals. universal healing. I think if Stefan did some DMT with Joe Rogan, maybe we'd all be one. This may be the gypsy in my blood speaking a bit here haha... (damn my penchant for agnosticism)

Well I must be a lost sheep then. I wonder if there are any other INFP's or ENFP's on this board. I suppose I am sort of a mix between the Prospective and Judgemental. I seek a definetive answer, yet I also keep an open mind and I change my opinions a lot. I identifiy heavily with stefans ideas, universals, and political philosophies greatly, yet I don't particularly share all of his attitudes regarding people and artists. I am still very interested in eastern philosophy, vibration, and the psychedelic experience, being that I am first and foremost a musician and artist.

I usually either get INFP or ENFP. I was very indecisive when taking this test. I'm more of an introvert wanting to be an extrovert. I'm often up in the clouds, when I should remain focus and contantly active. I'm feeler who thinks deeply and philosophically a lot, which often leeds to very deep feelings. and I'm a prospector, as I am too indecisive to pass judgment.
