Manifesting

As consciousness rises, one’s worldview expands. An expanding worldview facilitates a greater manifesting of a world that is far more compassionate, healthy and happy.

This is really important.

Below is a video of a chap who makes a very well stated, and crucial, word of caution about how manifestation is brought forth in each of our lives.

It’s a worthwhile watch and only 5 minutes, but if you’re a little short on time, the central point is stated at:

2:20 – 3:40

Acknowledging the paradoxical nature of your assertion is vital.

At 8:55 you state, “The fact that it (everything) is happening is all there is.”

This is intrinsically paradoxical. And I would like you to acknowledge the paradox. The general logic of your argument is sound, however the paradox is (always) where the crack is.

The assertion that everything exists without consciousness (simplistically speaking, a knower) makes everything unknowable, by definition, and it is intellectually dishonest, therefore, to speak of epistemology in any sense – including speaking of mechanism/determinism.

You want to have your cake (deconstructionism) and eat it too (mechanism).

Duality is a fiercely jealous mistress. And you fancy yourself free of her, (yet assert isness).

The old Zen Koan in this regard is: What is the sound of one hand clapping?

NOTE: for those who suppose this line of inquiry is non-relational to “Over The Peak”, on the contrary, our state of consciousness is precisely why we are in the mess that we are in.

In the interest of boosting a little “Society” here, I could hardly resist referencing this nicely written piece on the ‘Zuckerberg Revolution’…or dare we say de-evolution. Does anyone else ‘not get it’? I really do not care what my high school chum had for breakfast.

Language expression, it would seem, is accelerating towards the event horizon of uselessness-parading-as-conviviality…on the back of instant narcissism.

Economics Is No Exception To Egoic Laws

There is nothing about economics which suggests to me that we should expect a different dynamic than that which confounds every other sphere of egoic thought, i.e. religion, science, philosophy. Namely, increasingly wild cycles between dualistic opposites. This may, for us individually, catapult us into experiencing the dualistic opposites (i.e. Austrian v Chicago) from a different consciousness.
