I don't think this is very fair on her, I presume she has not undergone some kind of awakening herself and I would start working on causing her to awaken. It will take time and effort to do but I think you should try it out or else if something does go wrong you may find it difficult to forgive yourself.

Yes I see what you mean. What I mean is that a theory or paper cannot gain any traction if the conclusions are going against whatever dogma is prevalent at the time or the theory is controversial.

The sheep will always find strength in numbers, they can try to work together to access knowledge as they are much more ineffecient in terms of accessing the knowledge and understanding it. This is the only way to achieve parity with the wolves. Though the wolves are massively outnumbered they are able to intuitively use their knowledge and are very efficient at doing so and thus they are able to think quickly and innovatively in their efforts to stay one step ahead of the sheep

OK so I have some more theories I need to get out there I think that the mind/body is linked to such a degree that when the consciousness is made aware of and understands certain things about himself and the world intuitively (and those things are correct) then the DNA of that person is altered and that person is changed physically and mentally. Certain genes are switched on and others are switched off as you amass the 'correct' knowledge. This could be some kind of phenomenon that ensures the person with the knowledge is worthy and wise enough to be responsible with his power and not pervert the knowledge for his own gain. I was wondering how this applies to r/k theories, I believe the sheep can become a wolf and that transformation is triggered by knowing the right stuff and using that knowledge wisely. Unfortunately some people crave power or are bestowed with power and they don't want to give it up. I am sure this is all ancient information but it still applies today and it always will be relevant. Also science is hamstrung by the necessity for peer review so it cannot answer the big questions at the moment because many scientists have to think about their own interests. EDIT: peer review is absolutely necessary of course.

You are born, you download information from your mother and father, you then leave and go it alone. If you have been given good information you succeed, if you have been given bad information you fail and if you don't leave your mother you never grow up because you are forever dependant on someone else who has a finite existence and cannot support you forever. Awakening/Kundalini/Gnosis is not triggered if you don't grow up and instead you live in fear rather than relying on your own intuition. Being able to effectively use ones intuition requires an awakening process to have taken place which is part of growing up. You must always seek knowledge and find the truth. Your new mind will be quietened, the negative self-chatter gone, you are now steered by your ego which desires to help people that seek help and desires to help trigger an awakening whenever possible whilst making your world a better place to live in (your personal circumstances)

I am still awakening, I just wanted to post an update I am currently reading 'My Big TOE' by Tom Campbell, I am finding it excellent so far. I have an insight I wanted to share while it is fresh: The meaning of being is to find out the truth, the closer you get to the truth the better you feel and the easier it is to help others see the truth and then the better they feel. It is imperative to keep an open-mind and be skeptical at all times, it is important to be free and you must be allowed to speak freely without recrimination or censorship no matter what the subject, equally it is important that you must listen to others and be prepared to alter your belief-system when presented with the truth. We must forgive others who have acted within a belief-system that was not of their choosing, they acted in ignorance and self-preservation, it is important to help them see the truth but it is equally important that they are able to keep an open-mind at all times. This is where we all come in... It is difficult for a close minded person to be led onto one of Stefans videos and watch it all the way through whilst understanding it fully and realising in their gut that this is much closer to the truth than they are, however if Stefans words are repackaged and tailored for the audience (a close-friend or relative) then it becomes easier to to trigger their awakening because they trust you more than someone in a newspaper or a politician AND you have been able to change the message to better reflect their own personal situation and viewpoint. The more knowledge you amass and the closer to the truth you think, act and feel, the easier it will be to alter your own worldview and then the worldview of others, the truth, when realised, is irresistible and permanent. It is intuitive.

How best to respond to panhandlers?
flazak replied to Bleak Morn's topic in Libertarianism, Anarchism and Economics
Only offer a job if your certain you will both benefit from it! You would need to get to know them first, they may have issues! It would be a big commitment and they would be your responsibility. I think the best thing to do is point them toward a charity that can help them, preferably one you already volunteer for or donate to. -
I think Hitler was a new breed of dictator to people living in 30s Britain, same with Stalin. I think the establishment in the allied countries just didn't understand them or the threat they posed. If they did understand then they preferred to bury their heads in the sand rather than confront them but that brings me back to WW1 being in everyones mind and the horrors of that war. It was a shitty situation!! Theres no way you get elected by anyone if you are preaching the need to go to war AGAIN
-
I think we can solve the problems, but there would still be problems, just different ones I think it goes from: World Hunger --> World Obesity --> Technology eventually solves this? ---> Next unseen problem arises World War ------> Keeping the peace --> Someone gets pissed off with the peacekeeping --> War Terrorism -------> Police State --> Revolution I would say that its possible to replace big problems with lesser problems though ! If you ever solve all the problems and end up in utopia I believe this so called utopia reduces your consciousness and turns people into philosophical zombies and when under these conditions someone will eventually turn up to rock the boat!

How best to respond to panhandlers?
flazak replied to Bleak Morn's topic in Libertarianism, Anarchism and Economics
Good idea! Maybe if the local charities offered some kind of token in return for a donation that allows the panhandler to eat a meal etc, this would be better? EDIT: Thats it then, vouchers. You give a charity the money to pay for a meal, shower or room etc and they give you a voucher then when you see someone begging you give them the voucher that entitles them to a free meal at Charity X. If you donate more to the charity you can give them a voucher that will give them a meal, a room and a shower ! -
Thanks for mentioning Neville Chamberlain, I need to learn more about what happened. Before I start to read more about him I want to say that he was only doing what he thought was right and he was trying to protect his country without bloodshed. A huge war lingered in the memory of all politicians in Britain (and France) and I believe he tried to do all he could to avoid it happening again, he thought he was doing the right thing but Hitler was a new breed of dictator... neither the politicians or the people realised how dangerous the beast was that they had unleashed during and after WW1. Also... Stalin.

IMHO they are all personality traits that stem from an instinct to protect their families or their interests at whatever cost. These traits are reflected in the mental and physical makeup of the person. In the absence of property rights I believe we would all act in our own interests which includes the protection of people we care about, it would lead to every man/group/culture/tribe for himself, chaotic springs to mind, but eventually the best group 'wins' In an absence of property rights maybe there would be a fight to establish new rights? Which ever group comes out on top determines the new rights? Perhaps thats what is meant, a fight for dominance to establish new property rights? I'm not sure
-
So, I guess in a nutshell; You're damned if you do and damned if you don't
-
We should just observe and let them come to us if they want to. or We should act or else they will destroy themselves before they come to us, what a shame that would be. ---- Which one? Its impossible to answer it, but the more data you have the higher the likelihood that the decision to act or not to act will be the correct one, at least for now Theres not enough data to know what things are like in an eon or two!

Well... this is what trips me up at the moment.. If the Prime Directive applied to Western Europe in 1500 then they would have found Sub-Saharan Africa (or the coast of it) and decided that the native peoples were too primitive and should have been left alone. The result is no slave trade and no slavery?! Isn't that good? Or was it necessary to experience the slave trade and its consequences in order to learn a lesson and not make the same mistake again. Probably the latter imo (we learn from our mistakes) so I guess the Prime Directive is a consequence of that mistake, if we left our planet tomorrow and encountered a primitive society we should leave them be and simply observe them. Only after a LOT of observation can we be in a better position to decide on whether or not we should introduce ourselves and our way of life because perhaps we would then have a better idea of the consequences later on. There are too many variables. Now I realise this is one example, but it is the one foremost in my mind at the moment. I am sure there are other times when it appears making contact and interfering in a civilisation does eventually yield more positive results. So perhaps the Prime Directive is only flawed because sometimes it is right and sometimes it is wrong, but it means well. Maybe the idea of the Prime Directive is to say 'HOLD ON, Think things through before you interfere!' and that breathing space allows a starship captain or whatever to make the right decision, or, at least, a decision that results in less pain and suffering! Yes I know they broke the prime directive many times but we can never know the consequences of interference can we? Good or bad? At least not without a lot of information first (which is why the Federation tended to observe cultures before making contact) I don't think its wrong but I can see its not right either. Its hard to see into the future but with more data we can take a better guess as to the consequences of interfering rather than observing. No idea! It depends on the outcome? If we found an alien planet tomorrow in our new warp ship and shared all our technology and ideas with them and one of the nations on that planet uses our technology to destroy another nation then we were wrong... I think? Surely anything that results in death and suffering is wrong?! Hmmm... all I know is that I would not want to be the one dying thanks to that new fangled tech!

Is the Prime Directive from Star Trek right or wrong? Personally I think its right, am I wrong? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_Directive

Also if they never want to see the truth then so be it, thats their choice. Maybe what we think is the truth is incomplete anyway? If I say to you that you should heal your aura or chakra or try to improve your chi a man of science might laugh at me, but that same man of science would've laughed at me 400 years ago if I tried to describe radio waves to him. To him, a radio would be magic, I'd probably be burnt at the stake. Science has simply not explained them yet. EDIT: I am going round in circles at the moment, I am using chi/qi as an example, we do not know if it exists because we cannot find evidence for it, we cannot observe it. I cannot provide evidence. It is possible that in the future we can devise an experiment to prove its existence and then it is 'true' and proven, until then its something that must be believed in and then some kind of placebo effect arises from it. All the power is in our minds.

No, you need to respect their life and their beliefs. It doesn't matter how wrong you think they are, they think they are right and they might believe their world view even more strongly than you do. All you can do is chip away piece by piece and at the pace you think that person can cope with the truth. Now if you know someone who is on a similar wavelength to yourself then by all means bombard them with the truth and point them to the evidence and they will buy you a drink afterward! I am not suggesting they stay in a state of blissful ignorance, I am suggesting the rate at which the truth can be absorbed varies from one to another, and I have no right to impose my beliefs on someone else against their will especially if they are happy with their lives right now, I would prefer them to be happy. I am not sure if thats right or wrong, but it feels right to me. I will still try to point them in the right direction and then they can stay happy until they are ready to see the truth.
-
I don't want to turn their worlds upside-down and preach to them that I am a wise man who looks down on them with contempt because they have not felt the need to seek the truth, if they are happy with their lives then thats all that matters and I must respect where they are in the present. What I can do is ease them in to a new way of thinking by encouraging them to read something or watch something or voice my opinion and back it up with evidence. Gradually through osmosis they will begin to realise the truth for themselves. If I am too full on I am the one who will be ostracized from my circle of friends and family! It goes both ways. SO my advice to you is keep learning and be considerate and respectful of others regardless of their beliefs Stefans videos plant the seeds in our head for us to realise the truth, then we have to decide how to pass on the message down to people we know and we may have to put Stefans words into our own contexts of interpersonal relationship and our interpersonal backgrounds etc... when we talk to someone about this new knowledge we put it across in such a way that the recipient of that knowledge is able to understand it and comprehend it - now the key is trust - your aquaintance will trust you, maybe youve known him for 50 years! The very fact you are telling them must mean it requires some investigation and it must have some truth to it because I know him to be a trustworthy person. This process continues and grows, and grows. Exponentially. Whoever was behind the Panama papers seems to have a problem with the uk government thats for sure... Its as if the powers that be want to encourage migration and accelerate economic collapse. They want to start a war.

There is definitely a youtube video or some kind of infographic in all this! Eye opener.

Trouble is that if someone is in full on zombie mode and content with his/her life, they are not interested in learning the truth. All you can do is nudge them gradually toward whatever it is you need them to know. If they are intelligent enough they will piece things together, if not it will just take longer

I must admit I have not looked at progress into space elevators for a while. It sounds like they are making some good progress! I think I saw an article recently about a Japanese company that planned to build one? I think a few more breakthroughs will be needed but I can't apply a timespan to that. True AI might not happen any time soon but Deep Learning steered by human input has the capability of transforming the world and I only found out about it last week! It will be a very useful tool for us all - actually it already is! China and India are indeed behemoths with huge potential. They are merely resuming their posts of being the leaders of the world, the difference this time is the fact they are transformed by Western ideals on top of their Eastern ideals. Maybe its a good thing, maybe its bad, I'm not sure. Japan and Korea did ok eventually and perhaps China has learned from Japans mistakes. This century is absolutely critical for our long term survival ! We have the capability of destroying the planets ecosystem which is something we have not had before. The planet will recover but who knows what state the human race would be in, perhaps there is an ark somewhere to keep us going. If so, we will leave the planet so long as we aren't hit by a comet or something. If there is a world ending event coming, man made or not, I just want it to be quick and painless. Then I can come back reincarnate into a better world

We need a major breakthrough in propulsion to be able to leave the planet in enough numbers to start real colonies elsewhere. I hope things like the emdrive can be proven and produced before things get really bad here on Earth. AI and deep learning will be of enormous assistance to us soon in getting us closer to creating the technology we need to leave the planet and save the planet, also I believe the mass sharing of information over the internet etc will lead to more innovation and inspiration worldwide. Who knows what the Chinese are capable of if they can keep their shit together as well as the rest of the world We just need to try our best collectively to keep a lid on things for long enough to allow us to be able to start putting things right within the limitations that our current political systems impose upon us.

Good article, I liked reading it. Every article like this allows me to fit the jigsaw pieces together and solve my problems I am rapidly realising that: Bad Programming Lack of correct stimulation Trying to 'fit in' Peer Pressure False 'selves' Are all getting in the way of being yourself, the true self. Let go and almost go on autopilot and things become effortless. The more effort, the more fighting inside the head and the more you fight against change, the worse you get mentally and physically. It sounds straightforward, but it is not. You may be trying to undo decades of 'bad programming' - if you have to have an internal discussion with several people inside your head before you can actually communicate then your going to struggle ! We need to stop living inside our heads and actually live. For me this starts with learning about the real world and learning how we got to the present day. Learn about yourself - get to the bottom of things, get to the roots. It is very important not to rush and not to let yourself get overwhelmed. Just make a little progress everyday. If you sit there watching youtube videos thats fine as long as they are the right ones. Your not procrastinating, your learning. Your brain will gradually piece the bits of knowledge together and put them into context with your personal situation and then those false selves will begin to fade away. Peter Gerlach is brilliant! I have found him yesterday thanks to this thread and I intend to look into his work when I feel like it and whenever I have any issues in the future.

You have set me down the right path anyway, I am reading about consciousness, quantum physics, meditation etc and its relationship to deep learning and the human input required to steer the deep learning algorithms on the right track.
