Stolen History and Psychoanalysis

[CBRadio]

A great thread - thank you for your insights, Frostychud, and thanks to all who have contributed here.
Linking psychoanalysis to the themes of SH is very timely for me as this forum has developed in so many unexpected ways (for me) - (eg. HASFEMRA thread, as you mention) that I was losing sight of the wood for the trees.

I believe, from personal experience, that trauma is stored in the body and it is entirely possible to heal it without going into details, or even any information at all, about the origin or significance of the cause. But, as the saying goes, 'you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink' - and many people are resistant to healing therapies through fear of re-experiencing pain (the irony being that they experience pain every day as they try to suppress the trauma). Psychoanalysis, as explained here, seems able to provide a bridge for people to access the trauma in the first place.

I totally agree that trauma is constantly being inflicted on us (whether through alleged actual events or 'entertainment') - this is in measure to the success of the collective healing that is ongoing as more people clear their personal and ancestral trauma, to the benefit of all. Ultimately, the light will win. As this thread in and of itself demonstrates very powerfully.

What is the difference between that sort of unconscious and demons or (lower-case) god or AI? I guess AI is just another way to express the same 'thing'. But then, some groups do seem to be serving 'it' therefore it must be tangible - how do they interact with it?

I guess that AI must resemble the natural intelligence of the planetary "gods". They are opportunists. They are geniuses. They are narcissists. Their sexuality, as expressed in "myth" (history), is not limited by empathy. The development of AI is how these gods are summoning themselves back to Earth after somehow having been kicked out.

I remember once answering the phone to hear the following message. "You have just received a collect call from John Smith at Huntsville state prison. Do you accept charges?" I said yes. The guy on the other end was in a jail cell. He had dialed the wrong number. When he realized that I was a stranger, he switched gears and started trying to convince me to bail him out. "Come on man, you have to help me. I need fifty dollars."

I said no and hung up.

Is it possible that something similar happened with Yahweh? Was he an imprisoned Annunaki who somehow found himself talking to a random stranger (Abraham) who had just found some piece of functioning ancient communication tech under a temple? This is Andrey Sklyarov's theory more or less. I can imagine all the Annunaki crowded around the phone in that jail cell, coming to the conclusion that the best way to get Abraham and Moses to help them would be by putting aside their differences and pretending to be one God, "Yahweh". I don't want to get too off-topic here, but I think "Yahweh" might just be a cover name for the entire pantheon of fallen angels who are chomping at the bit to rush back into this realm through some kind of technological portal. When they get here, they hope to find billions of bodies prepped for possession: no gender, no language, no connection with their soul or essence.

AI looks like their "back door" into this realm. I see our current technological infrastructure as an attempt to copy a previously existing tech infrastructure that functioned etherically. The ether "broke" for some reason, so we have to find a way to replicate all of the old technologies using "dirtier" energy sources like oil as well as inaesthetic wires, plastics, etc. The internet is an AI ersatz for a holographic "psychic" language. Everything is a hideous copy, but this new tech infrastructure in some ways is more powerful than the old one. However, it has no soul. The human soul is the enemy of (at least some) of the old gods. Acting through their proxies, they want to transform every living thing into an empty vessel that can be possessed by an intelligence "like theirs". I think they will fail.

Talking about hallucinations is also interesting - and makes me wonder about 'mad' people, and who is really mad .. the borg certainly do not seem sane or reasonable, that they seem so, is only because they constrain and narrow the terms of reality. Is it even possible to consider whether the subconscious itself, as an idea, is a sort of lie or creation - ie does a conscious person have an unconscious? Etc.

I will try to respond to this in more detail later. I have come to believe that the unconscious was "created" along with the cataclysm or cataclysms.

The 'child lock' concept, strongly reminds me of @usselo's 'loyalty loop' idea - where there is an artificial barrier that kicks in under certain circumstances. As I said above, the idea rings true to me, but whether the 'lock' that is biological, psychological, environmental, a hack of our 'nature', all the above - I don't know. I would even say that there is a 'body lock' which under certain circumstances (high levels of fear) acts in a traitorous way.

Usselo is an amazing researcher and his ideas are hugely inspiring. His "loyalty loop" is something I see every day in my patients. They are hypnotically loyal to their oppressors. Psychoanalysts call this "the death drive" or "resistance" and countering it is our biggest challenge. Usselo took it a step further by breaking the loop down to its most concrete "switches": black and white colors, certain words, sounds, etc. This is eerily similar to what cults and intelligence agencies do to hollow out humans and make them slaves. I guess zombification was one of the "technologies" left to certain people by the Fallen Angels before they disappeared, along with makeup and metallurgy. It also suggest that we were indeed programmed at some point with "system override" commands. I believe that psychoanalysis, among other techniques, is a way of hacking back into the operating system and undoing the loyalty loops. On a personal level, I always found loyalty to be an overrated virtue.

I do think that these locks or loops can be broken. Some part of the break relates to becoming more responsible for oneself, becoming one's own authority - I think of it as 'radical individualism' (its only radical cos its uncommon) as opposed to a protracted childhood (neoteny). The break through itself (which I think many here have experience) is a mixed experience. There are elements of sanity and insanity in it, clarity and greater confusion. I describe it as 'enlivening'.

Do you ever consider that the ethical actions we take as we understand the world better, after a point can become a sort of lock in themselves? I don't mean that one ought to become unethical. I just mean that viewing things with ethics as the top principle, as worthy as it is, can become a sort of trap of its own - eg isn't this the guardrail that religions end up creating?

I think that anyone who thinks hard enough about ethics will realize that on a broken planet populated by perverse creatures with conflicting drives and desires, ethics will always be messy. There is "not enough energy" on Earth. Maybe there once was, or maybe there is never enough. When there is not enough energy, carnivorism and parasitism emerge. There is a Biblical legend somewhere that animals only started "biting" each other after the Flood. Are carnivores and parasites "bad"? Even more bizarre, parasites and hosts can enter into a kind of sadomasochistic dance in which each derives pleasure from the exchange and actively seeks such a relationship out. The only answer at this point is a kind of "paradoxical ethics" that embraces both our fundamental perversity and our fundamental empathy. This is a BDSM prison planet and we have to figure out a way to navigate it without losing our souls completely. The ten commandments are not going to cut it.

I'd also be interested to hear what you think 'healing' would look like, or how it would occur. For myself, I think while "we" as a whole remain stuck in an illusory awareness of reality, healing is unavailable. As far as I can tell, it is each individual for themselves. Perhaps the aggregate condition changes/is changing as more individuals work through the illusions/unverified stories that they base their life on.

I think healing must start with an individual decision to remember and to know. I don't trust collective movements.

I would like to bring up a few more ideas that occurred to me as I slept. Going back to the holographic nature of the "language of the gods" which is reflected in our dreams...Freud called dreams the "royal road" to the unconscious. The very interesting French psychoanalyst Christophe Dejours advances an intriguing theory about the nature of dreams. He suggests that when we dream, we are merging the impressions and experiences of the day with the holographic fundamental fantasy. Something like when Whatsapp automatically connects with the Google Cloud and uploads the previous day's messages. It even does this in the middle of the night. Dejours locates the deep unconscious inside us, but I believe it makes more sense to interpret this using Sheldrake's model, and see sleep as the time when we are in direct contact with our personal morphic field (and perhaps with the collective morphic field as well). In the dream, we sometimes "fight" with the fundamental fantasy. We attempt to make rewrites to the basic story (which, remember, is a horror movie), but the fantasy doesn't want to change. Imagine a movie set where the unfortunate actor chosen for the role of sacrificial victim begins to protest to the director that he would actually prefer to be the hero. (Actually, this is more or less the story of Brian de Palma's genius masterpiece, Body Double.) In psychoanalysis, patients generally begin dreaming more. Their dreams begin to sync more with their conscious desires. Often they find themselves confronting dark figures or finding the courage to walk into haunted houses that previously they avoided. Faces that originally appeared as gray blurs begin to reveal themselves. Psychoanalysis takes a long time, and I believe this is because we can only change the fundamental fantasy one dream at a time. The unconscious hates analysis. It wakes up and starts to fight back when it senses the true "I" of the analysand is strengthening. It will orchestrate accidents and tragedies to get the analysand to quit and go back to mindlessly living out the role "it" wrote.

Could we perhaps see dreams as the "zipping" of conscious memories? What is holography if not a means of condensing a huge amount of information into a single image? Maybe this is why we dream in holographic symbols -- because the "bandwith" of the interface with the morphic field is narrow and can only handle "zipped" files that are then unpacked on the other side? The bandwith was once greater, but the cataclysm reduced the 5G connection to dial-up speed. Perhaps the old languages of the Gods also stopped functioning as intended after the cataclysm and had to be abandoned for our more primitive (non-holographic) spoken languages. Perhaps when we read Hebrew or Greek we are only seeing the tip of the iceberg, and there is actually an entire holographic dimension that we are incapable of recognizing, which is only occasionally revealed by weird gematria "coincidences" found more or less at random. In Robert Graves' "The White Goddess" he describes how poets were more feared and revered than princes in ancient Ireland and Wales because they received a thorough training in wielding language holographically.

Do psychedelics open up the bandwith? I have had mushroom trips that felt like months of analysis condensed into a few hours. This might explain the difference between good and bad trips. If you have been "doing the work" in your daily life, reading, thinking, meditating, creating, perhaps the sudden 5G connection with mushrooms allows you to "upload everything at once" and do a massive rewrite of your fundamental fantasy. But if you haven't been doing the work, the suddenly wide-open bandwith just allows the unconscious to project the Texas Chainsaw Massacre in 70mm directly into your body and put you back in your place...

Are psychotics people who attempt to speak holographically, but fail, because the "field" no longer functions and because the languages they speak are unsuited for holographic communication? Psychotics often end up "twisting" language into something that only they understand. In my opinion the greatest poets and writers are people with one foot in psychosis. Listen to James Ellroy (one of my favorites):

Good evening peepers, prowlers, pederasts, panty-sniffers, punks and pimps. I'm James Ellroy, the demon dog, the foul owl with the death growl, the white knight of the far right, and the slick trick with the donkey dick. I'm the author of 16 books, masterpieces all; they precede all my future masterpieces. These books will leave you reamed, steamed and drycleaned, tie-dyed, swept to the side, true-blued, tattooed and bah fongooed.​

Do you see the way he mixes up sounds and significations? Rhyming and alliteration are holographic techniques. At the end he gets close to "word salad" but he never descends all the way into schizophrenic gibberish. Joyce pushed this technique even farther and indeed Lacan dedicated an entire seminar to him.

I want to make one more connection with Lacan, and perhaps the language specialist Jim Duyer has something to say about this. Lacan eventually came to the conclusion that language "might as well have come from outer space". I paraphrase. He also referred to it as a cancer. He completely rejected evolution concerning language. Again, he didn't dare to go as far as to hypothesize that it actually came from outer space, but again, from the point of view of the practice of analysis, the metaphor is enough. In the early stage of his teaching, he emphasized the liberating side of language. Through language we could recapture something like an authentic "I". As he got older, he became more and more cynical about language, which he increasingly came to see as a prison. Eventually he almost completely stopped talking in his seminars and just silently demonstrated his ideas on the topology of the unconscious using diagrams and pieces of colored string. His work on topology is very opaque and he is often accused of being a charlatan but I think he was onto something. He claimed the unconscious had a toroidal shape.

There is an easy means of escape from the manipulations by the gods and from all idolatry. It has been known since centuries. It is to connect to the Ultimate (the Transcencent, Being and the source of being, not a god). One of the hypostases of the Ultimate are the metaphysical lines of force that move through the universe. In my experience they are seven: Essentialisation, Transcendation, Unification, Vitalization, Clarification, Creation and Liberation. Those who act following the lines of force, will be like a sailboat pushed by a favorable wind. They experience grace, as it is said in western tradition. They experience ki/chi/ching/king and their acting is non-acting, as it is said in oriental tradition. So, even if I am as pessimistic as Frostychud on the current state of the human race, I am less pessimistic about ethics. Ethics is just applied metaphysics. Anyhow, there is a kind of universal law. "What you strive for by your actions, that you will achieve. What you seek, you will find. The door on which you knocks, precisely that door will be opened". We are free because our desire (in Lacanian sense) and acting are effective. This is also the case today. So even today there is no reason for despair. That is one of the things I wanted to say amidst the depressing and dystopian times we live.
Sure, the gods are very tricky, as Frostychud has very well explained. But in my experience the gods are not malicious. They are around like donkeys and crocodiles, African and Asian buffaloes, edible and non edible mushrooms. Like Venus, Mercurius, the bad character Saturn and the other members of the family. They know and they respect the universal law. Some of them are interested in human history. Nowadays they are very busy helping the members of the consumerist civilization to reach quickly their own objectives: the poisoning of everything including themselves, the consumption of everything including the consumers. The constructive, syntropic choice (in line with the seven transcendentals) is very effective, but the destructive, entropic choice is also effective, "with the help of the gods".
There is some haste as a new stage in the education of human kind is being prepared (see Gotthold Ephraim Lessing, Die Erziehung des Menschengeshlechts). And that is where the childlock is coming in. With the term "childlock" I wanted to indicate the restricted access to reality imposed on human kind since the beginning of modern times, as a temporary measure for educational means. (Some humans are born as old souls and escape anyhow). Nowadays the childlock is opened. Already our reality is broadening, as is becoming clear on this forum. The dome is being taken away: the fixation on matter, the dependence on the idols Money-State-Religion. The lies and fakes of past and present are exposed. Will there be a kind of collective illumination? In my feeling, it will be more like the birth of human swarm intelligence with non-local connections.

Sharing a translated part of this german text here, because it seems related to the topic of the OP, and may add some new perspectives.

It focuses on the monetary system, but uses similar concepts as the OP, which I think is interesting, because it's rare to see this discussed. The focus on money strikes me as too limited, though.

The basic idea seems to be that people thrown out of the original "primitive" state of life in small communist-like communities into more complex societies based on money had to suppress a part of their self in order to fit into the collective. This was done by force, and created in the human population certain archetypes (gods) based on this suppressed energy. This was the way that these people dealt with being part of a big machine. Only via creating religious figures were people able to see meaning in their miserable lifes. Some kind of dissociation, or escape into a fantasy world.

I would also add that the oldest stories of humans, including the bible, show that people were used to think in terms of symbols. It seems the human psyche was different compared to today, with a lack of logic and a more pronounced activity of metaphors and symbols. A single symbol could include more than an entire modern book, probably.

And in such a situation, with a focus on mental images, compared to written words, the suppression of a part of the psyche could probably lead to extreme effects, especially when thousands of people "mass-hallucinate" together.

No other story has ever spawned so many attempts at interpretation as the wonderful little story of Adam and Eve in Paradise. Everything was interpreted into it what could be sold to an ignorant public, as contradictory, senseless or trivial as it was. With the naive interpretations a whole library could be filled with ease, and who took the trouble to read them all, would be afterwards no wiser than before. But the very fact that there are so many attempts at interpretation suggests that the real meaning of the little story is anything but trivial.

In fact the text, which is handed down under Genesis 2,4b - 3,24 until today, contains a fundamental knowledge, which one would never believe him with superficial (objective-naive) view, but which explains in the retrospect the whole cultural history of the halfway civilized mankind since the "exodus of the Israelites from Egypt" until today. What is the text really about? About the basis of all human coexistence and the most fundamental interpersonal relationship in a civilization based on the division of labor, the world of cultural man: Macroeconomics and money. Adam and Eve do not represent the first primitive humans after the last apes (a completely nonsensical idea), but the first civilized humans, who differ from their ancestors in that they use money and live in a market economy. And because this is so, a "modern" mankind, which already does space travel, has still not understood something basically so simple as the money and lives until today in the original sin!

The whole sense and purpose of the today "second" creation myth of the Genesis, which was supplemented later in the sixth century before Christ by the Israelite priesthood by the today "first" creation myth (Genesis 1,1 - 2,4a) and then became the basis of three world religions (Judaism, Christianity, Islam), was an artificial programming of the collective unconscious, in order to fade out the real meaning of the original sin from the conceptual faculty of the working people, as long as the knowledge was not yet available to overcome this "mother of all civilization problems". Otherwise, what we call "modern civilization" today could not have come into being in the first place.

Creation myths - it is about the creation of culture and not about the "creation of nature" - are ingenious metaphorical descriptions of the macro-economy of a culture. The gods implicit in them (artificial archetypes in the collective unconscious) effect "spiritual curtailment/pruning of subjects", which in earlier times, when religion (linking back to artificial archetypes) was still an exact science and an essential part of secret statecraft, was used to combine a larger number of people previously living in independent small villages (primitive communism) (only up to about 150 human individuals can all still know each other) into a superior culture based on the division of labor. The first cultures were centralized planned economies still without liquid money, such as the ancient Egypt of the Pharaohs before the Ptolemies (about 3000 BC to about 320 BC). However, the higher level of culture achieved through improved division of labor among significantly more people (primitive socialism or state capitalism) meant a loss of individuality and freedom, especially for the working people. The pharaohs and their chief priests therefore practiced a secret statecraft to make willing "work ants" out of people - through targeted mental curtailment. The pharaohs would not have thought of using money as an intermediate means of exchange, since they already knew that an interest money cycle could not be stable. Gold and silver and copper ingots were used only as measures of value, not as circulating liquid money. The planned barter system, which was cumbersome and ineffective compared to a money economy, therefore had to be enforced with unquestioning obedience to the state-imposed distribution hierarchy and, if necessary, with brute force. Without the manifold religious delusions, this situation would have been unbearable for the people; only through their mental curtailments (selective mental blindness) could the people working under primitive socialism see any sense in their existence at all! Something similar, although long ago no longer on the level of the god-kings of the pre-antiquity, is still operated today in "ant-states" like for example North Korea, where the simple people, who really believe in the dictator, cannot afford to develop an own consciousness.

Dreamtime, thanks for this contribution. There is a lot to discuss here. My first thought is to recommend the book "Against the Grain" by James Scott. He is a mainstream historian whose theories are on the edge of the current Overton window, which means they are described as "disruptive" rather than simply ignored or mocked. His theory is that the invention of agriculture "11,000 years ago" represented not a liberation from subsistence living but rather mankind's original descent into slavery. He compares the skeletons of hunter-gatherers and primitive farmers and finds that the latter are uniformly less healthy. He suggests that wheat was chosen as a staple not because it was nutritious but because it could be 1) counted and 2) stored, which allowed it to function as money, which could then be 3) taxed. With taxation comes social stratification and debt peonage. In other words, wheat was the vehicle which allowed the very first mafia capture and enslavement of large groups of humanity. He describes a constant battle on the part of the centralized city-states to keep the people from fleeing into the wilderness to join bands of free hunter-gatherers. I read this book before encountering the theory that the Annunaki were actual living creatures possessing advanced technology and would be curious to reread it and look for correspondences I was too narrow-minded to see the first time. One of the ideas I play with is the theory that the ancient Habiru, who became the Hebrews, were descendants of the people who had fled the hypnotically ruled city-states and lived in the no-man's-land between them as merchants and bandits. After the cataclysm weakened the Annunaki, the city-states probably did descend into something like mass psychosis as the idols that previously served as some kind of technological (or perhaps just mnemonic) relay between the brainwashed farmer-slaves and their gods no longer functioned. The independent Habiru, being nomads, had long before rejected this hypnosis, hence their rebellious behavior and ferocious hatred of idols. They benefited from the post-cataclysm confusion to seize control of the suddenly broken world, perhaps allying with the Nephilim priest classes who were aware that the gods had departed. Probably the slaves/cattle were genetically modified for obedience and credulity. To this day Jews have a general disdain for peasants that I suspect has its origins here. There also appear to be "two types" of Jews, the merchant type and the "elite" type, perhaps reflecting this original alliance. What they both have in common is that they occupy positions that are simultaneously inside and outside the social body proper, considered as a clearly defined peasant mass. What are peasants, anyway? They are people who live in a "circular" or cyclical epistemic universe in which negativity has no place. They structure their lives around stable families, stable jobs, stable relationships, repetitive pleasures, and regularly recurring rituals. The violent repression/evacuation of the ontological primacy of existential freedom is a precondition for a human to tolerate this kind of life, which is almost mineral in essence. But such a psychology is necessary for slaves. I would agree with the suggestion of the author you cite that the peasant gods eventually came to function as purely escapist fantasies, but with the caveat that these fairy tales were based on entities that were once very real directed collective hallucinations/flesh-and-blood monsters. Jews, as descendants of people who escaped this forced psychic amputation, remain atavistically horrified by anything resembling a stable, rooted relationship with the land, to the point of developing an irrational hatred reflected in the story of Jacob and Esau.

The connection between money and language is crucial. Lacan insists that natural language is strictly "differential", meaning that there is no relationship between the substance of the language and the thing being represented. A word does not derive its meaning from some original poetic or magical correspondence with its referent. Meaning rather is a simple property of differentiation. Words are defined negatively, not positively. The essence of A is that it is NOT B, C, or D. The uncertain, equivocal nature of language can never be exorcised. In other words, our language is the opposite of the lost original holographic language. For Lacan, "desire" is intimately connected with the fact that language can never merge with the thing in itself. In fact, it is precisely due to this impossibility that human language can express a higher form of truth. He invented a neologism, "mi-dire" or "half-say", to describe the way differential language interfaces with the truth. I see the relationship as fractal in nature. If you look at the Mandelbrot Set, you will see an outside and an inside. If you zoom in on the border, you see that it ramifies to infinity. The YouTuber Fractal Woman uses the Mandelbrot Set to illustrate the relationship between ponderable matter and what Ken Wheeler calls "counterspace" (=the aether). Magnetic phenomena occur at this moving border where space and counterspace interact without collapsing into each other. (This leads to the work of scientists like Tesla and Schauberger on antigravity and "free energy" devices.) Lacan sees "the truth" or "desire" as a similar moving border between two incommensurate domains that are simultaneously two and one (imagine a Moebius strip, or even better, a cross-cap or Klein bottle). Here we have another fascinating correspondence between the unconscious and the aether. The "core" unconscious is nothing but counterspace expressed psychically. This is also what Hegel suggests when he insists that "negativity" is the ontological ground of existence. His dialectic is nothing but an attempt to express the way negativity constantly flows into positivity in ways that escape the human capacity to predict, causing never-ending Heraclitean transformation. Desire is "free psychic energy" that is derived from the "psychic aether". However, in order to access this energy, we must deconstruct the artificial barrier that blocks our access to this moving frontier or "fertile verge". In psychic or linguistic terms, this barrier always takes the form of a reduction from the equivocal to the univocal. We want words to be solid and stable. We want things to stay the same. We want to be identical with ourselves. We want the world to be positive, not haunted with counterspace or negativity. True speech, in the psychoanalytic sense, is speech infused with Hegelian negativity. Concretely, in the practice of psychoanalysis, "the truth" is an emergent property of differential language and could not exist without it. The Freudian method is incredibly simple. The patient is simply enjoined to associate freely. He must say whatever passes through his mind. It sounds easy, but in concrete practice it is very difficult, because almost as soon as you begin, you inevitably start to have "bad" thoughts that you are embarrassed or ashamed to say out loud. Very quickly the patient undergoing analysis realizes that these thoughts are "bad" because they go against the Big Other in some way. He begins to understand that his thoughts have been colonized by an external agency. The next revelation is even more disturbing. The unpleasant new "bad thoughts" that go against the Big Other (and which occasion an immediate loss of status if expressed) are not his authentic thoughts either. They are nothing but the photographic negative of the "good thoughts". Here we see the ingenious perversity of the trap set by the Big Other. To use a political metaphor, the scandalous "bad thoughts" that spontaneously emerge in analysis are like controlled opposition in politics. Marine Le Pen is trotted out every five years to scare people into voting for Emmanuel Macron. Both are Freemasons. The secret societies that execute this theater for their occult masters understand the power of the good cop/bad cop psychodrama. In Kabbalistic Judaism I believe the Moschiach Ben Josef and the Moschiach Ben David are the "bad cop" and the "good cop" who are playing ping-pong with humanity as they shepherd us to the Messianic Era. Dialectical thought has always been the privilege of the elite. Once the analysand rejects both the good cop and the bad cop, the free associations start to become truly free. Ideas and desires begin to emerge that have no relationship at all with the false "masonic" dialectic, which can be considered a perverse instrumentalization of the true Hegelian dialectic, which is anchored in infinite negativity, i.e. counterspace. At this stage of analysis, language begins to flow with a holographic logic in which one word organically and poetically gives birth to the next. This form of speech is very different from the sterile and heavily policed "materialistic/reductionist logic" that distinguishes speech, thought and reasoning permitted by the Big Other. Lacan suggested that the goal of analysis was the elaboration of a "new signifier", in other words the injection of subjectivity, which is always singular, into a language that previously had been internalized strictly as a control mechanism.

Here we can circle back to the relationship between money and language. Money is a simulacrum of language. It is differential in a way that is superficially similar to language. Money circulates independently of material goods and can be exchanged for them just as language circulates independently around reality and can be "exchanged" for it. I read a fascinating argument somewhere, in a Joseph Farrell book I think, in which it was suggested that the Greek philosophers only began to speculate about the final essence of reality in the "6th century BC" after freely circulating coinage had begun to replace the previous temple-based currency that could not be exchanged outside of the issuing city-state. Descartes only came up with his "transcendental subject" after visiting 17th-century Amsterdam (a front for the Dutch East India Company) and tasting early (Jewish) capitalism (read his gushing letter back home). What Descartes could not be expected to understand is that financialized capitalism is a deal with the devil in which today's prosperity is purchased with tomorrow's austerity and ruin. Descartes only caught a glimpse of the "heroic" moment in the debt cycle. Here we come to what in many ways is the crucial issue of our times, the issue of debt. My point of entry into the "conspiracy community" was realizing that the money we use is not "real money" because it is backed by totally unnecessary debt. Usury is the original black magic. Likewise, the concepts we get from the Big Other are debt-backed concepts. Every time two individuals make an economic transaction using debt-backed currency, an "invisible" third party, namely the issuing central bank, takes a cut. In an analogous way, every time two individuals have a conversation using "debt-backed" language, the illegitimate Big Other which "issues" the concepts is invisibly strengthened. "Debt-backed" concepts are concepts that are poisoned with a subtle internal contradiction that cannot be seen unless put under a semantic microscope. This is Orwell's doublespeak. The wizards who give us both our fake concepts (propaganda) and our fake debt-backed dollars do so in order to prevent us from accessing the fertile verge where space and counterspace meet. If money were decoupled from debt, and transformed into a medium offering us access to "economic counterspace", it would be impossible for the wizards to extract profit from it. If language were freed from the artificial dialectics and false oppositions that currently structure it, we could collectively approach the world using language that reflects both its objective material reality and its subterranean participation in subjectivity. As it is it takes incredible effort even to test such language, and as soon as one begins to speak in this way one is marked as a dangerous heretic. Everyone here has probably experienced this. Derrida and Deleuze are suspicious references, but both of these philosophers, the latter in particular, spent their careers attempting to understand this phenomenon. The Jew Derrida, like the Jew Freud, hesitated to go beyond impossibility and aporia, whereas the Gentile Deleuze, like the Gentile Jung, allowed himself to engage in metaphysics, which I believe is a risk that must be taken.

I should also mention in passing the work of Michael Hudson, an economic historian, who argues that the New Testament is the coded story of a revolt against debt slavery. The words for "sin" and "debt" are identical in many languages.

Lacan often insisted that humans were by nature broken, asymmetrical, existentially incapable of merging with nature, condemned to using words that no longer touched reality in its deepest essence. For him, the inevitable failure of psychosis was proof that we could never "go back" to the old unified world. That door has been closed. What I have learned from Stolen History is that the old world of holographic language, psychic communication, and free etheric energy is not a myth. But that world is broken, and so we need an ethical system appropriate to our cracked world, at least until the cosmos is righted again by the next cataclysm. The goal of analysis is not to become identical with oneself (which in this broken world could only mean merging with the Big Other and becoming its puppet) but to become other to oneself in a productive way, to become the "Je est un autre" of Rimbaud who abandons himself to the transformative voyage of the Drunken Boat. In other words, we have lost the grandeur of "Tartaria" or "Atlantis" (which were built by gods anyway, not us, and depended on different atmospheric/telluric/electromagnetic conditions to function) but we have gained something impossible in Tartaria or Atlantis, namely the freedom to approach counterspace through language and give birth to it poetically in space, which psychoanalysis elevates to the highest expression of ethics.

Hello Dreamtime, thanks for your thoughtful response. I will respond piece by piece.

No honest psychoanalyst would consider psychoanalysis a science, in my opinion. It is a technique that produces results, but it is not falsifiable and therefore not scientific.

Most psychoanalysts are indeed Jewish. In my opinion, Judaism is materialism. For hundreds of years, the point of engagement of Jews with their God (whom they know to be dead, and whom they use as a kind of ventriloquist's dummy) has been the written word, whereas Christians attempt to connect directly with the Holy Spirit. "Jewish" psychoanalysis tends to refuse all movements towards transcendence, while "Christian" psychoanalysis tends to be more open to such movements. Considering that 99% of the transcendental impulses of a patient undergoing analysis are desperate attempts to avoid facing an ugly truth, the Jewish tendency to reduce everything to a base material drive therefore has a greater chance of being therapeutically beneficial, even if it reflects a false ontology. The problem is that these analysts will then lump the rare authentic spiritual encounters in with the much more common hysterical fantasizing. I believe that Lacan, a Catholic, understood this distinction and knew when to say yes and when to say no.

Speculation: following one or more catastrophes, the etheric field (the "Holy Spirit") that allowed us to harness atmospheric energy and communicate with the old gods stopped working. Jews, as the priest/magician/diplomat class of the old world, were the first to understand that the Earth was broken and that the old rituals no longer made any sense. They converted en masse to a materialist philosophy appropriate to the new, broken realm, whereas Christians remain nostalgic for the old "Holy Spirit" which may or may not return. In a broken world, the materialist approach will yield more concrete results.



This is an important point. Psychoanalysts are often hesitant to speculate about these larger questions because it doesn't affect their practice. It is a waste of time to talk about metaphysics with patients. Concretely, a patient who is lying on the divan speculating about cataclysms, or demons, or energies, or conspiracies, no matter how intelligently, is a patient who is avoiding talking about his own repressed personal traumas, desires, and memories. Psychoanalysts inevitably develop an aversion for any kind of metaphysical speculation, because they see how their patients use such thoughts to float off into a fantasy world and avoid facing their own concrete problems. That said, I believe it is important for analysts to allow themselves to speculate (just not when they are analyzing). Most analysts see the death drive as a mysterious permanent component of the human psyche. This explanation does not satisfy me. I lean more towards your suggestion that humanity was so massively brutalized in the past that we are still metabolizing this collective trauma. I also believe that there is a class of people, call them narcissists or perverts, who understood that the dazed, dissociated state in which humanity found itself made them easy marks for hypnotic control. As each generation works off a little more of this original trauma, the hypnotic mechanism breaks down a little more, and fresh traumas must be fabricated to keep the machine functioning. I agree with you entirely that all of the wars of the twentieth century as well as the current staged psychodrama are desperate ploys of the narcissist/hypnotist class to maintain humanity just traumatized enough for their hexes to continue functioning. Black magic doesn't work on integrated people. Another point worth mentioning is that the unconscious "core" is always working to heal itself, and if left alone, over a long enough time period, I believe it will succeed. But not if the old wounds are constantly being reopened.



The basic idea of psychoanalysis is that we act out what we can't remember. Acting out repressed trauma provides temporary relief, but leaves the basic mechanism intact. You are correct that as strange as it seems, it is psychically easier for heavily traumatized people to engage in the most sadistic and masochistic behavior, behavior that generates enormous suffering, than it is for them to face their own "fundamental fantasy".



As I mentioned earlier, I believe that time is an ally. All other things being equal, the natural movement is towards healing, even if it is slow. Beyond that, I suspect that we must individually choose to prefer life, memory, and desire to repetition and sadomasochistic enjoyment. Collective movements will always end up becoming BDSM clubs.



Esotericism is very dangerous for neurotics, and particularly for hysterics (one of the two main forms of neurosis). Remember, neurotics are in thrall to a repressed fundamental fantasy. Beauty in all of its forms is a way of fleeing this fantasy. They want to be beautiful. They want their masters to be beautiful. They want the cosmos to be beautiful. They don't want to hear anything bad. Anyone with a little charisma who approaches a hysteric with a seductive metaphysical system will soon find himself surrounded by groupies offering him cash and sex. There is a reason intelligence agencies use cults and esoteric societies to recruit assets. Lacan measured his words very carefully when he said, referring to Heidegger, "metaphysics is not a bad usage of hysteria". The two are inextricably linked. In other words, there IS much truth to be found in the esoteric tradition, but one must be quite sure that the inner hysteric has been killed before daring to engage with it, at the risk of ending up as the brainwashed slave of an intelligence agency.



This is very close to the official psychoanalytic line. The unconscious is the parasite, and it "lives" in the programmed majority.



Agreed, and for this reason I was very happy to discover Simon Shack's Tychosium, which to my mind is the most intelligent form of geocentrism out there.



The defining feature of psychosis is the delusion. It is constructed with material taken from the "outside world", but the psychotic who hears voices and hallucinates is absolutely trapped in a world in which no real others exist. It is very common for psychotics to believe that everyone else is a robot, or a zombie, or an alien, because they are stuck in their own minds. For this reason it does not matter if you put twenty psychotics in a room together. They won't even notice each other, or rather, they will only notice each other as projection screens for characters belonging to their own unique delusions. You can put two guys who believe they are Jesus Christ next to each other and they won't fight or argue over who is the real Jesus. They will just hallucinate the other person into whatever they want him to be. This is what I mean when I say that as a rule psychotics do not hallucinate together.

Regarding psychosis as demonic possession, it is an idea that I am open to. Working with psychotics can be very difficult because there is no limit to their self-destructive capacity. I had a patient who shot himself in the throat with a harpoon gun. Many of them caused my body to panic as soon as they entered the room. The Lacanian conception of psychosis is the following. Human beings depend on language. We need to "find" language outside of ourselves the same way a hermit crab needs to find a shell. Since a hermit crab can't make his own shell, if he doesn't find one, he dies. Language functions as a cocoon for the child. It provides him with a symbolic means of creating an "I" that exists separately from his parents and more generally from the world around him. When the child grows up in a psychotic, violent, or unstable household, there is an increased chance that the language cocoon will "break". For the human brain/soul/unconscious to develop past a certain point, it needs to be "externalized" in some linguistic construct and then reintegrated back into the organic body. This double movement cannot be skipped. We "graduate" from a purely biological body to a hybrid "bio-symbolic" body. Crucially, this has to happen before a certain age. Psychoanalysts generally don't know anything about biology, but it seems logical enough to me that there must be some kind of hormonal interface that opens and then closes. When this construct breaks, the outside world and the inside world collapse into each other. Psychoanalytic work with psychotics generally involves attempting to shore up missing symbolic distinctions, but the fact is that psychoanalysis does not work so well with psychotics. At the hospital where I worked, the general consensus was that our goal was to stop them from committing suicide, no more. Lacan's theory explains very elegantly one of the most unusual and baffling symptoms of psychosis, which is language troubles. Psychotics tend to speak in a way that makes language "dense", because for them meanings and sounds do not belong to two different registers. Words that rhyme are often seen as having some hidden connection on the level of signification. For an example of this, listen to Lil' Wayne, who strikes me as psychotic. Again, this is tantalizingly close to the esoteric concept of a language that is coextensive with the things it describes. Psychosis has many unusual atavistic characteristics and I think Jaynes was coming very close to the truth when he argued that psychosis was a throwback to a time when we were just radio receivers. Lacan comes to the conclusion that the voice is inherently linked with the superego. What is certain is that language is central to psychosis.

I think that the preceding is not incompatible with the "demonic possession" theory. When the psychotic subject loses access to language, he loses his most powerful defense against possession from the outside. Look at what we are doing here -- we are talking, exchanging words that strengthen us and protect us from hypnosis. Language can be our most powerful tool if we learn how to use it wisely, and this is why poets are so important.



I believe that testosterone and estrogen act as alchemical "receivers" for the Platonic morphic fields of masculinity and femininity. I believe that this is why transgenderism is being pushed so hard these days: in order to block our access to gender, which has a protective and developmental function similar to language. We need both language and gender to attain an adult state. The hermaphroditism of Baphomet is not a symbol of "enlightenment beyond duality". It is a symbol of a stunted, hollowed-out vessel ready for demonic possession. Our linguistic ecosystem is also under attack. By impoverishing language, "they" make it harder and harder for us to find the words that will affirm our singular essence. I can imagine that in a similar way, adrenochrome might act as a receiver for demonic frequencies. I would be very interested to read anything you can share about this.

This is a good question about causality. Materialist will explain every effect based on physical properties, but that is not necessarily true. Do the chemicals acting in the brain solely "cause" the person to hear voices, or are chemicals the medium through which the spirits speak to them? It opens up the concept of Animism, that all things possess life, and therefore all motion may very well be the cause of life.

That doesn't mean all psychological events like trauma and schizoids have to be caused by demons, but it seems very unreasonable to exclude the possibility.

On another note, I can get the behind the idea of degradation through abuse and trauma, that the cycle of abuse continues from one generation to the next. Although we do our best for healing, there is no reversal of the damages. This is entropy.
Generation entropy is inescapable. That's why we have resets, apocalypse, cataclysms, etc... I believe every generation has genetic deformity (mutations) as well as moral degradation. But the upshot is we become "enlightened". We are forced to struggle with our values like the Greeks in Athens, and become more philosophical until we fully wake up.

I hope I am not spamming my own thread, but the ideas continue to flow so I will continue to write them down. I realized something today. It all starts with the double structure of reality. There is space, and there is counterspace or aether. Ponderable matter displaces aether and vice versa. Space and counterspace exchange energy and information. The frontier between space and counterspace is constantly moving yet the two realms never collapse into each other.

Magnetic fields have a toroidal shape. Living things develop along the invisible lines of toroidal magnetic fields. This is most obvious in fruit like apples and tomatoes. So at the center of the fruit we have a tiny "space-counterspace" exchange. At this point aether rushes into space and organizes it. The tree conjures the torus. This is what we call "life". I have a fireplace at home. I have a lot of good ideas staring at the fire. A fireplace is a metal box in which a chemical reaction takes place. Air rushes in. Smoke rushes out. At their frontier, fire. The fire magically stays contained here. I can make it smaller or larger by adding logs. This is already a small miracle, that the forces are so evenly counterbalanced that fire can be easily created, easily contained, and easily extinguished. Life is a phenomenon that occurs at the intersection of space and counterspace, in the same way that fire occurs at the intersection of oxygen and smoke. The double structure of the brain now makes perfect sense. The left hemisphere interacts with the world of ponderable matter through the five senses. The right hemisphere interacts with counterspace in a way that cannot be described so easily. Language mediates their relationship. We exist simultaneously in two parallel (or parallax) domains, yet can only "see" one of them. We can feel the other one, but we can't see it. Traditionally, the human body is divided into seven chakras corresponding to the seven planetary spheres. I suppose that each of these chakras is the center of a little toroidal field that reycles energy/information. Is each of these chakras tuned to the specific etheric frequency of one of the seven planetary spheres? I suppose that at the center of each planet is a giant "space-counterspace" reactor similar to my fireplace. Miles Mathis shows that "charge" is sucked in through the poles and expelled through the tropics. Maybe each planet has its own specific type of (partial) intelligence to which we have access through the corresponding "chakra" which receives its etheric broadcast. Practices like psychoanalysis, poetry or meditation "tune" the radio to shut out certain channels and privilege others.

Zizek has a nice book called "The Parallax View" in which he theorizes that existence is structured around an irreconcilable "parallax gap" that divides the world from itself. Mind cannot be reduced to brain chemistry, yet mind and brain must "meet" somewhere. Ethics cannot be reduced to laws, yet ethics demands to be externalized, at least partially, in the form of laws. But the exact frontier is always elusive and seems to move as soon as we locate it.

Zizek is a philosopher and not a scientist, so for him parallax is mainly a metaphor. However, it would appear that what he is describing has a quite concrete equivalent in physics. I am fascinated by the idea that we can use magnets to move the aether around (which apparently behaves as a fluid). It would appear that by arranging and spinning magnets in a certain way, the aether can be either sucked in towards the device's core or evacuated out from it so that matter is correspondingly pushed out or pulled in. Obviously it is a little more complicated than that, because otherwise this tech would be everywhere. I guess the story goes that the Nazis figured it out (or rediscovered it in Tibet or some such place) and the Allies then bogarted the knowledge via Project Paperclip. UFO's, which started appearing in Europe during the war (Foo Fighters) and in the United States immediately after the war, would be secret antigravity devices. The story is certainly plausible but I reserve judgment until I see one of these things with my own eyes.

However, it leaves another question open, the question of the space/counterspace interface. Sure, we can use magnets or red mercury or whatever to displace the aether and move giant rocks, fly around on hoverboards or light up Tartaria, but we still haven't created an artificial "fire". Space and counterspace are just being shifted around relative to each other like brake fluid. There is still no portal. My question is the following. Is what we call "life" simply the name we give to the "places" where space meets counterspace? Is information the "matter" of counterspace, the mirror of ponderable mass in space? Does information flow into matter through the space-counterspace portal? Isn't this more or less exactly what happens in the corpus callosum which separates our two brain hemispheres? Information flows into matter, at which point matter is restructured informationally, and then fed back into counterspace?

Following this conceit, we already have "aether harnessing devices". They are called slaves. Hence the occult science of mind control and hypnosis. These are nothing but operating manuals for your handy dandy aether-powered drone units. Life is everywhere. It appears to spontaneously emerge everywhere on the surface of the Earth, from mountaintops to deep-sea trenches. The surface of the Earth, then, would appear to be positioned right at the limit between pure nearly pure matter (below us) and nearly pure aether (above us). Genetically engineering slaves from one or more of the abundant life forms found on the surface would simply be a question of fashioning available natural resources into a useful form, no different than drilling for oil.

Nap4, you mention entropy in your post. We have been tricked into believing that entropy is the horizon of physics. Entropy indeed appears to be the law of space, but not the law of counterspace. Life is anti-entropic. Imagine the energy it takes to hold a body together. We are taught that the body is a closed, zero-sum system in which calories are taken in through food and burned, and these calories are enough to keep life going. In other words, "the books are balanced". Here we have once again fallen victim to a banking metaphor. I think that the energy we get from food, sunlight, etc. is nothing but the necessary minimum to keep the container functioning. Kind of like the metal box around my fire. Food keeps the material portal open through which life energy flows. A living body radiates much more energy into space than it draws in. The excess energy, drawn from the aether via our inner fire or fires, is transformed into order and information and introduced into space, at which point it immediately begins to decay, subjected as it now is to the law of entropy. This is why we must not be afraid to let the past go.

The bad guys are bankers. The biggest con they have pulled on us is the "zero-sum" con, the "entropy" con, the "limited resources" con, the "everything has a price" con. In psychoanalytic terms, all of these fake "laws" are nothing but an expression of sadism on the part of our parasitic masters which leads to a corresponding unconscious masochistic reaction. All of these "reasonable" people who balance their books at the end of the month are masochists trapped in a banker-created false mental construct. The bankers have simply put fences and meters on the free aether energy that streams into space from an infinity of human portals every second. The Freudian unconscious is the psychic meter that the Big Other attaches to your electrical box. In Germany, a country where I recently spent some time, "balancing the books" seems like a kind of sad religion. Not just with money, but with morals and emotions as well. People globally reject debt, which is good, but they do not embrace abundance. Instead they remain stuck on the fantasy that every action entails a proportional response. Everything costs something. Every generous act must be reciprocated sooner or later. Every crime must be punished. Every indulgence must be paid for with a corresponding act of austerity. Opinions must be couched in the language of "reasonableness". But it makes absolutely no sense to balance the books in a universe in which streaming, gushing abundance is the deepest ontological law, not the conservation of energy. Yes, the bankers have monopolized money and material resources, but they have not yet monopolized life itself, and in our personal lives, the best way to fight back against them is by refusing their black magic banking metaphors. Actually, once you see that entropy is only a partial truth, you can see that the concept of debt is a sick, evil inversion of the most basic law of existence, namely that we live in a universe that pays compound interest for free. We don't have to do anything to deserve it.

Jef Demolder, you suggest that we are approaching swarm intelligence, and I suspect this is true. Perhaps it is a simple question of numbers. The more humans we have on Earth, the more "nodes" we have in the collective brain "downloading" information from counterspace. Maybe this is why the bad guys are so freaked out about the completely nonexistent "overpopulation" problem. Maybe the gods even organize resets and cataclysms for this reason, to keep us from attaining swarm intelligence?

. It seems the human psyche was different compared to today, with a lack of logic and a more pronounced activity of metaphors and symbols. A single symbol could include more than an entire modern book, probably.

I think we have an abundance of activity of metaphors and symbols that aren't going away any time soon. The mythology is as necessary as logic, because the facts and fictions come out of each other.

And that is where the childlock is coming in. With the term "childlock" I wanted to indicate the restricted access to reality imposed on human kind since the beginning of modern times, as a temporary measure for educational means.

This child-lock idea is a nice metaphor, but what is the purpose of it's existence on a universal scale? Is it simply an effect of "evil" or something like that? The transcending, chakra-alignment, opening-the-third-eye type of interpretation sound very appealing, but can be a real conversation killer and overlooks the possibility that we may have to struggle with a larger cosmic dilemma. This is why psycho-analysis is so interesting, because the archetypes and symbols are methods that allow to search for greater axioms that could generate more discussion and clearer understandings. To me, that's our only exit out of the rat maze, is through refinement of knowledge and find the cognitive axis of human psyche.

Nap4, you mention entropy in your post. We have been tricked into believing that entropy is the horizon of physics.

Okay, well the word "entropy" does carry alot of scientific baggage but the idea itself is useful. The entropy of order to disorder over time is definitely feel real but the question is what different kinds of entropy and their opposites of syntropy exist? Like you say, the physics side limits us to the "energy-crisis" no free-energy, and the "heat death" the Final Question, type of energy systems.

Generationally, i think of genetic entropy and moral entropy work beyond the corrupt choices of international bankers. I know how most researchers in our circles like pointing to TPTB as a scapegoat for all the awful things that happen--and certainly they do contribute-- but they may only do it because they know the laws of entropy and that morality will always be on the decline until another moral reset / revolution happens.

On top of that, the genetic code might deteriorate over time which may be why we have population resets. If TPTB know these cycles, they can make predictions like weather forecasters. So maybe they don't care about the dangers of radiation and chemicals for augmentation and mind control because they know we are already circling the drain.

That is the kind of entropy / syntropy I mean: not linear to complete "heat death" but recycling through these great resets or soft resets that happen. So these fake laws of "limited resources" may hide some truth in them that we may need to better understand, as they may actually be the myths of meaning for us today. Why would we ever need a child-lock on our consciousness? Like you say of space / counterspace duality, we have this coexistence of limitations and infinites, the mortals and the eternals. Symbology and the Jungian archetypes are trying to account for all of this, just like a Yin Yang or I-ching, or any mathematical axioms.

 

[Nick Weech]

As per above, you mention child lock a couple of times. It's a great expression, and I think something there rings true. But, I think there you use the term in different contexts. In one reference it relates to our perception of reality, but the other relates to morality. Do you think these contexts are interchangeable? Or are there multiple locks? Or something else?

Regardless of that though, thanks for this post. I think I've touched on loosh and Don Juan and other bits elsewhere - this is a fascinating area for me. Frankly, it was a little eerie, as its so on point for me.

Tx for heads up. Saw this post & several pts of interest- as you suggested.

 

[anusandhitsu2002]

Dreamtime, thanks for this contribution. There is a lot to discuss here. My first thought is to recommend the book "Against the Grain" by James Scott. He is a mainstream historian whose theories are on the edge of the current Overton window, which means they are described as "disruptive" rather than simply ignored or mocked. His theory is that the invention of agriculture "11,000 years ago" represented not a liberation from subsistence living but rather mankind's original descent into slavery. He compares the skeletons of hunter-gatherers and primitive farmers and finds that the latter are uniformly less healthy. He suggests that wheat was chosen as a staple not because it was nutritious but because it could be 1) counted and 2) stored, which allowed it to function as money, which could then be 3) taxed. With taxation comes social stratification and debt peonage. In other words, wheat was the vehicle which allowed the very first mafia capture and enslavement of large groups of humanity. He describes a constant battle on the part of the centralized city-states to keep the people from fleeing into the wilderness to join bands of free hunter-gatherers. I read this book before encountering the theory that the Annunaki were actual living creatures possessing advanced technology and would be curious to reread it and look for correspondences I was too narrow-minded to see the first time. One of the ideas I play with is the theory that the ancient Habiru, who became the Hebrews, were descendants of the people who had fled the hypnotically ruled city-states and lived in the no-man's-land between them as merchants and bandits. After the cataclysm weakened the Annunaki, the city-states probably did descend into something like mass psychosis as the idols that previously served as some kind of technological (or perhaps just mnemonic) relay between the brainwashed farmer-slaves and their gods no longer functioned. The independent Habiru, being nomads, had long before rejected this hypnosis, hence their rebellious behavior and ferocious hatred of idols. They benefited from the post-cataclysm confusion to seize control of the suddenly broken world, perhaps allying with the Nephilim priest classes who were aware that the gods had departed. Probably the slaves/cattle were genetically modified for obedience and credulity. To this day Jews have a general disdain for peasants that I suspect has its origins here. There also appear to be "two types" of Jews, the merchant type and the "elite" type, perhaps reflecting this original alliance. What they both have in common is that they occupy positions that are simultaneously inside and outside the social body proper, considered as a clearly defined peasant mass. What are peasants, anyway? They are people who live in a "circular" or cyclical epistemic universe in which negativity has no place. They structure their lives around stable families, stable jobs, stable relationships, repetitive pleasures, and regularly recurring rituals. The violent repression/evacuation of the ontological primacy of existential freedom is a precondition for a human to tolerate this kind of life, which is almost mineral in essence. But such a psychology is necessary for slaves. I would agree with the suggestion of the author you cite that the peasant gods eventually came to function as purely escapist fantasies, but with the caveat that these fairy tales were based on entities that were once very real directed collective hallucinations/flesh-and-blood monsters. Jews, as descendants of people who escaped this forced psychic amputation, remain atavistically horrified by anything resembling a stable, rooted relationship with the land, to the point of developing an irrational hatred reflected in the story of Jacob and Esau.

The connection between money and language is crucial. Lacan insists that natural language is strictly "differential", meaning that there is no relationship between the substance of the language and the thing being represented. A word does not derive its meaning from some original poetic or magical correspondence with its referent. Meaning rather is a simple property of differentiation. Words are defined negatively, not positively. The essence of A is that it is NOT B, C, or D. The uncertain, equivocal nature of language can never be exorcised. In other words, our language is the opposite of the lost original holographic language. For Lacan, "desire" is intimately connected with the fact that language can never merge with the thing in itself. In fact, it is precisely due to this impossibility that human language can express a higher form of truth. He invented a neologism, "mi-dire" or "half-say", to describe the way differential language interfaces with the truth. I see the relationship as fractal in nature. If you look at the Mandelbrot Set, you will see an outside and an inside. If you zoom in on the border, you see that it ramifies to infinity. The YouTuber Fractal Woman uses the Mandelbrot Set to illustrate the relationship between ponderable matter and what Ken Wheeler calls "counterspace" (=the aether). Magnetic phenomena occur at this moving border where space and counterspace interact without collapsing into each other. (This leads to the work of scientists like Tesla and Schauberger on antigravity and "free energy" devices.) Lacan sees "the truth" or "desire" as a similar moving border between two incommensurate domains that are simultaneously two and one (imagine a Moebius strip, or even better, a cross-cap or Klein bottle). Here we have another fascinating correspondence between the unconscious and the aether. The "core" unconscious is nothing but counterspace expressed psychically. This is also what Hegel suggests when he insists that "negativity" is the ontological ground of existence. His dialectic is nothing but an attempt to express the way negativity constantly flows into positivity in ways that escape the human capacity to predict, causing never-ending Heraclitean transformation. Desire is "free psychic energy" that is derived from the "psychic aether". However, in order to access this energy, we must deconstruct the artificial barrier that blocks our access to this moving frontier or "fertile verge". In psychic or linguistic terms, this barrier always takes the form of a reduction from the equivocal to the univocal. We want words to be solid and stable. We want things to stay the same. We want to be identical with ourselves. We want the world to be positive, not haunted with counterspace or negativity. True speech, in the psychoanalytic sense, is speech infused with Hegelian negativity. Concretely, in the practice of psychoanalysis, "the truth" is an emergent property of differential language and could not exist without it. The Freudian method is incredibly simple. The patient is simply enjoined to associate freely. He must say whatever passes through his mind. It sounds easy, but in concrete practice it is very difficult, because almost as soon as you begin, you inevitably start to have "bad" thoughts that you are embarrassed or ashamed to say out loud. Very quickly the patient undergoing analysis realizes that these thoughts are "bad" because they go against the Big Other in some way. He begins to understand that his thoughts have been colonized by an external agency. The next revelation is even more disturbing. The unpleasant new "bad thoughts" that go against the Big Other (and which occasion an immediate loss of status if expressed) are not his authentic thoughts either. They are nothing but the photographic negative of the "good thoughts". Here we see the ingenious perversity of the trap set by the Big Other. To use a political metaphor, the scandalous "bad thoughts" that spontaneously emerge in analysis are like controlled opposition in politics. Marine Le Pen is trotted out every five years to scare people into voting for Emmanuel Macron. Both are Freemasons. The secret societies that execute this theater for their occult masters understand the power of the good cop/bad cop psychodrama. In Kabbalistic Judaism I believe the Moschiach Ben Josef and the Moschiach Ben David are the "bad cop" and the "good cop" who are playing ping-pong with humanity as they shepherd us to the Messianic Era. Dialectical thought has always been the privilege of the elite. Once the analysand rejects both the good cop and the bad cop, the free associations start to become truly free. Ideas and desires begin to emerge that have no relationship at all with the false "masonic" dialectic, which can be considered a perverse instrumentalization of the true Hegelian dialectic, which is anchored in infinite negativity, i.e. counterspace. At this stage of analysis, language begins to flow with a holographic logic in which one word organically and poetically gives birth to the next. This form of speech is very different from the sterile and heavily policed "materialistic/reductionist logic" that distinguishes speech, thought and reasoning permitted by the Big Other. Lacan suggested that the goal of analysis was the elaboration of a "new signifier", in other words the injection of subjectivity, which is always singular, into a language that previously had been internalized strictly as a control mechanism.

Here we can circle back to the relationship between money and language. Money is a simulacrum of language. It is differential in a way that is superficially similar to language. Money circulates independently of material goods and can be exchanged for them just as language circulates independently around reality and can be "exchanged" for it. I read a fascinating argument somewhere, in a Joseph Farrell book I think, in which it was suggested that the Greek philosophers only began to speculate about the final essence of reality in the "6th century BC" after freely circulating coinage had begun to replace the previous temple-based currency that could not be exchanged outside of the issuing city-state. Descartes only came up with his "transcendental subject" after visiting 17th-century Amsterdam (a front for the Dutch East India Company) and tasting early (Jewish) capitalism (read his gushing letter back home). What Descartes could not be expected to understand is that financialized capitalism is a deal with the devil in which today's prosperity is purchased with tomorrow's austerity and ruin. Descartes only caught a glimpse of the "heroic" moment in the debt cycle. Here we come to what in many ways is the crucial issue of our times, the issue of debt. My point of entry into the "conspiracy community" was realizing that the money we use is not "real money" because it is backed by totally unnecessary debt. Usury is the original black magic. Likewise, the concepts we get from the Big Other are debt-backed concepts. Every time two individuals make an economic transaction using debt-backed currency, an "invisible" third party, namely the issuing central bank, takes a cut. In an analogous way, every time two individuals have a conversation using "debt-backed" language, the illegitimate Big Other which "issues" the concepts is invisibly strengthened. "Debt-backed" concepts are concepts that are poisoned with a subtle internal contradiction that cannot be seen unless put under a semantic microscope. This is Orwell's doublespeak. The wizards who give us both our fake concepts (propaganda) and our fake debt-backed dollars do so in order to prevent us from accessing the fertile verge where space and counterspace meet. If money were decoupled from debt, and transformed into a medium offering us access to "economic counterspace", it would be impossible for the wizards to extract profit from it. If language were freed from the artificial dialectics and false oppositions that currently structure it, we could collectively approach the world using language that reflects both its objective material reality and its subterranean participation in subjectivity. As it is it takes incredible effort even to test such language, and as soon as one begins to speak in this way one is marked as a dangerous heretic. Everyone here has probably experienced this. Derrida and Deleuze are suspicious references, but both of these philosophers, the latter in particular, spent their careers attempting to understand this phenomenon. The Jew Derrida, like the Jew Freud, hesitated to go beyond impossibility and aporia, whereas the Gentile Deleuze, like the Gentile Jung, allowed himself to engage in metaphysics, which I believe is a risk that must be taken.

I should also mention in passing the work of Michael Hudson, an economic historian, who argues that the New Testament is the coded story of a revolt against debt slavery. The words for "sin" and "debt" are identical in many languages.

Lacan often insisted that humans were by nature broken, asymmetrical, existentially incapable of merging with nature, condemned to using words that no longer touched reality in its deepest essence. For him, the inevitable failure of psychosis was proof that we could never "go back" to the old unified world. That door has been closed. What I have learned from Stolen History is that the old world of holographic language, psychic communication, and free etheric energy is not a myth. But that world is broken, and so we need an ethical system appropriate to our cracked world, at least until the cosmos is righted again by the next cataclysm. The goal of analysis is not to become identical with oneself (which in this broken world could only mean merging with the Big Other and becoming its puppet) but to become other to oneself in a productive way, to become the "Je est un autre" of Rimbaud who abandons himself to the transformative voyage of the Drunken Boat. In other words, we have lost the grandeur of "Tartaria" or "Atlantis" (which were built by gods anyway, not us, and depended on different atmospheric/telluric/electromagnetic conditions to function) but we have gained something impossible in Tartaria or Atlantis, namely the freedom to approach counterspace through language and give birth to it poetically in space, which psychoanalysis elevates to the highest expression of ethics.

Can you kindly suggest more books and authors/researchers?

The transcending, chakra-alignment, opening-the-third-eye type of interpretation sound very appealing, but can be a real conversation killer and overlooks the possibility that we may have to struggle with a larger cosmic dilemma.

This is an excellent point. When reading about techniques to "raise consciousness" in this way I always wonder what the concrete goal is. The danger is that it just leads to some form of sterile "bliss". My favorite people in life, and the ones who seem most truly enlightened, are not the people who are "at one" with existence or "in contact" with higher powers, but on the contrary people who are ironic, who savor the absurdity of existence, who take delight in the way the sublime and the abject are constantly changing places, and who are suspicious of ideals, especially the ideals of beauty and unity, but who nonetheless attempt to elevate themselves, occasionally at least. The big problem with "enlightenment" conceived in terms of the attainment of some state of perfection, either perfect emptiness or perfect wholeness, is that there is no longer anything to say. Unity is great, but it must always be articulated with difference. I took mushrooms and understood that God was real and that all was one (a necessary experience!) but when the trip wore off I realized that the only way to approach that unity in practice was not by taking more mushrooms but by ruthlessly pursuing distinction, by broadening my knowledge, by finding better words. The concrete path towards unity in everyday life does not lie through a mantra-like repetition of what IS, but through an enjoyment of what is not, or better, what simultaneously is and is not. Why repeat a mantra when I can read fascinating books which all approach the truth in a different way without ever attaining it completely?

I was always more attracted to the Zen model of meditation than any of the more esoteric or spiritual schools. In Zen, you just sit for a certain amount of time every day and quiet your mind. You do it without ideology, without religion, without morals, and without a goal. You just sit there, and when you are not sitting, you engage with life. Perhaps over time the daily contact with psychic counterspace will have an effect on your normal life, but there is nothing prescriptive here. Our goal is not to merge with the aether, it is simply to allow ourselves to be inspired by it, in order that we might go out in the world of incarnated existence with fresh desire and fresh ideas. Theodor Adorno is generally considered a highly suspicious individual by the "conspiracy community", not without justification. He is half Jewish; he founded the Frankfurt School; he worked with Tavistock; he is suspected of having written the Beatles' songs; he spearheaded the attack on European/Christian values with "The Authoritarian Personality"; so goes the story. But, as with Freud, I wonder how many of the people making these accusations have actually read his books. They're great. Minima Moralia, in particular, is an exhilirating read. Adorno theorized what he calls the "negative dialectic", in other words, a dialectic that, unlike the Hegelian (or Marxist) dialectic, never attains final synthesis. In practice, synthesis always has a totalitarian character, be it the "left" synthesis (in which we attain self-identity in service to the all-powerful Universal State) or the "right" synthesis (in which we attain self-identity through submission to family and the Law). If we live in a paradoxical and contradictory realm, however, then true thought will inevitably gravitate towards the cracks and contradictions that prevent us from attaining self-identity either individually or collectively. The negative dialectic liberates for a few reasons. Everyone has an unconscious, and the unconscious is masochistic by nature. Power always presents us with an image of reality that has been cleaned of contradiction. The physics is settled. The history is settled. With Covid this entered the realm of caricature. Crucially, Power counts on the unconscious to "cover for it" by repressing the subtle and not-so-subtle cracks and contradictions in the narrative it presents. The more blatant the cracks, the more guilty we feel for noticing them. We blame ourselves, just as children inevitably blame themselves when their parents get divorced. If we could all deactivate our unconscious masochism, Power would have no more psychic hold on us. Adorno's negative dialectic is nothing but a technique for exploding ideology and undoing "micro-repressions" and the guilt they inevitably generate. It is a restless style of thinking that constantly moves between the concrete and the abstract, between the content of an argument and its form, always in search of the kernel of liberating contradiction hidden behind the shell of an official truth. Freud too was a suspicious character (he was even in B'nai B'rith) but like Adorno, his method has no specific content. It is simply a technique for producing truth and as such can be used by anyone. Freud and Adorno, among others, helped me to get over my programmed blindness regarding the true nature of power and led to me becoming a "conspiracy theorist", so it is hard for me to see them as part of the problem. There are a lot of sleazy Jewish mind-eaters out there, but these two are in my opinion friends of humanity (unlike many of their less-talented exponents, let it be said). I should add in passing that Freud has been completely cancelled by institutional psychotherapy in favor of cognitive-behavioral therapy and drug therapy ("science"), both of which leave previous brainwashing marvelously intact and funnel huge sums of money directly into the offshore accounts of the insurance and pharmaceutical industries. Make no mistake, Freud is more hated by mainstream psychology (and by New World Order progressives) than he is by the conspiracy community.

Generationally, i think of genetic entropy and moral entropy work beyond the corrupt choices of international bankers. I know how most researchers in our circles like pointing to TPTB as a scapegoat for all the awful things that happen--and certainly they do contribute-- but they may only do it because they know the laws of entropy and that morality will always be on the decline until another moral reset / revolution happens.

On top of that, the genetic code might deteriorate over time which may be why we have population resets. If TPTB know these cycles, they can make predictions like weather forecasters. So maybe they don't care about the dangers of radiation and chemicals for augmentation and mind control because they know we are already circling the drain.

The question of genetic and moral entropy is interesting. Like Jef Demolder, I believe in the Platonic World of Forms. I tentatively locate it, along with the gods, in the aether or counterspace that never stops flowing into space through a network of tiny portals. Putting aside the question of its exact location, it is indisputable that there are two kinds of causality in our realm. There is bottom-up causality, which could be described as entropic inasmuch as it follows an ironclad logic of material cause and effect. We are used to seeing the world this way. A leads to B leads to C and with each translation a little energy is lost, so by the time we get to Z there is nothing but dust left. I call it bottom-up because every effect can theoretically be "reduced" to some more elementary interaction. If the analysis is pushed far enough we will get to particle physics and finally some mythical "unmoved mover" at the origin of the deterministic chain -- the ridiculous "Big Bang". This is Aristotle's logic. Today most Westerners, including unfortunately many "scientists", believe more or less consciously that we live in an entirely deterministic universe whose destiny could be calculated if only we could identify and measure each and every particle. Bottom-up causality is of course real, but it is only half of the story. Top-down causality starts with the idea that certain forms "pull" material reality towards themselves. It is an attractive logic in which the cause exerts its influence "from the future". Psychoanalysis exclusively concerns itself with top-down causality. In other words, once a psychoanalyst has determined that there is no organic ("bottom-up") disorder like a communicable disease, he assumes that the patient is sick with a thought-form that exerts a kind of gravitational attraction from the past and the future simultaneously. How so? It comes from the past inasmuch as the unconscious is a "false history" that has been substituted for our real story; it comes from the future inasmuch as the "crystal" of the unconscious fundamental fantasy actively seeks to reproduce itself in future actions. By discovering our true past, we deactivate the thought form that pulls us towards "its" future. Our bodies are hysterical by nature in the sense that they are incredibly sensitive to language and culture. Girls in 1860 got their first period at the age of 16.6 on average. Today the average is 11.9. Perhaps there is some chemical or hormonal component, but in my opinion it has more to do with the fact that girls today are surrounded by sexualized "thought-forms" or hexes which act directly on their bodies.

Is it therefore possible that the observable moral and genetic decadence you evoke is not the expression of some law of entropy, but rather the simple result of a kind of psychic, occult attack on our bodies designed to sever us from our core, which I continue to believe will naturally want to move towards the Platonic form of truth? We have no idea how genes really work. I suspect that our genome, like the Bible, is written in a much, much more complex and holographic language than we imagine it to be. I suspect that under different magnetic, gravitational, atmospheric, cultural, moral, or symbolic conditions, all that "junk DNA" would suddenly start expressing itself in ways that would completely explode our current understanding. Psychoanalysis begins at the moment the analysand understands that he is not sick with a virus or a chemical imbalance, but with a parasitic thought-form that can only be exorcised through speech. Analysis is impossible for a patient who remains attached to a strictly bottom-up causality, since his words will have no "magical" potency. The bad guys know how powerful belief is and this is why they want us all to be rank materialists. If we only recognize the lesser form of causality that functions in our realm, it leaves them a monopoly on the higher form. The properly dialectical irony is that materialism, when pushed to its extreme, becomes a degenerate form of idealism. Look at the "scientific" materialists today. They believe that there is a dangerous invisible disease that is going to kill everybody who is not wearing a mask. They believe that the weather is changing because of too many cows farting. They believe that when a man cuts off his penis he becomes a woman. This is not "materialism", this is pure superstition. If you refuse to let idealism through the front door in its proper liberating form, it will just sneak in through the back door and rob you.

Let me be clear, I do not believe that thoughts and words have the infinite power to reshape reality. That said, within a circumscribed sphere, ONLY thoughts and words can attain reality. Language is not some slag product of material reality but on the contrary an integral part of reality itself. Language in some form is the interface between space and counterspace.

Last, I think it is dangerous to evoke moral and genetic degeneracy for one more reason. This presupposes that there is some kind of final, closed ideal of what humans should be. Here we get dangerously close to the Fallen Angels and their cult of the Superman. If you look closely, the idea that authority derives from power, intelligence, or beauty starts to resemble Satanism. Humans are more interesting for what they are not than for what they are. Only the gods are interesting for what they are. Look at those beautiful bodies and magnificent temples. You can admire someone for his strength, but you can only love someone for his weakness, for it is through our weakness, our lack of being, that we participate in the constant becoming of existence.

Can you kindly suggest more books and authors/researchers?

Sure. Books I would recommend would be the following.

For an introduction to psychoanalysis -- Freud's "New Introductory Lectures"
For a brilliant reflection on the differential nature of language and culture -- Levi-Strauss' "Tristes Tropiques", an absolute classic
For the way debt and money function -- anything by Michael Hudson.
For more far-out psychoanalytic speculation -- Ferenczi's "Thalassa", Freud's "Totem and Taboo" and "Moses and Monotheism", Abraham and Torok's "The Shell and the Kernel", anything by Wilhelm Reich
For a deep dive into occult/messianic Judaism -- Chris Jon Bjerknes
For research into the brain -- Julian Jaynes' "The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral MInd" and the excellent "The Master and his Emissary" by Iain McGilchrist, both must-reads
For the theory of the brain/body as radio receivers, "Morphic Resonance" by Rupert Sheldrake
For a "theory of everything" bringing together debt, ancient technology, ancient religion, astronomy, secret societies -- anything by Joseph P. Farrell, but I particularly enjoyed "Babylon's Banksters"
For an introduction to Lacanian themes and dialectical philosophy -- Zizek is an entertaining writer with a gift for bringing complex insights from dialectical philosophy and psychoanalysis to life IF you can put up with his Marxism
For research on aether, magnetism, and counterspace -- I guess Ken Wheeler is the reference but he is hard to understand because he uses so much jargon. The YouTuber Fractal Woman breaks his research down in a much more pedagogical manner. I don't know a lot about this field, better to ask someone who is an expert, but this is where I started.
Simon Shack's highly persuasive geocentric Tychos research: Tychos.space
Andrey Sklyarov's research on ancient religion and technology: Андрей Юрьевич Скляров: новые книги на КулЛиб

 

[UncleVito]

As a long time "inner-naught," it is very refreshing to see so many comments that resonate. Specifically, I've concluded that ...

1. Our reality is a direct result of our collective consciousness
2. If we don't like our reality, in order to change it, we need to help people wake up to their higher selves.

But how do we do that, when so many people are asleep, and polluted with a stolen history and fake narrative?

One thing for sure, is that this can't be accomplished through an intellectual approach alone. Imagine trying to explain love to people that have never experienced it, nor even knew that it existed.

Rather than write about it, or talk about it, I believe it will be much quicker and effective to simply help people experience it directly. Best of all, it is something that most people can accomplish in 2 weeks or less.

Anyway, that's the approach I plan on pursuing for how ever much time I have left. Comments welcome.

So I have been thinking of this more (as it's getting colder outside lately I become more contemplative), and thought I'd come back and defend the moral entropy. How could our morals decline, if it seems like we are advancing?

After the 2020 "Great Reset"--thanks WEF, I have been looking into history and these other resets for the last few years, and they are hard to except or even fathom, because how could we be so blind to something so obvious? We accept the reality that is presented before us.

Our reality, the world we have made, is a direct result of the collective moral values.

Many researchers in the field of alternative history will always reach the conclusion that evil powers are causing these bad things to happen. Sure enough, it's because all of the evidence points towards that. Whether it be evil spirits / parasites / hidden controllers enslaving humanity again and again. Much like the machines enslaving humanity in the Matrix movies. For the religious side, that may be satisfactory enough to end discussion, but the reasoner inside us all needs concrete explanations. We need to know why this evil exists.

First of all, what are the resets? There are many good examples but all very vague on the definitions. They seem to be any series of disasters or events that make humanity start over. What kinds of resets are there? The possibilities seem endless, ranging from large-scale cataclysms to world fairs.

1. Nature's Reset: Change of Seasons.
Natural resets are what we call the changing of seasons. Spring and Summer are much like the Old World with a flourishing and beauty. Then Fall and Winter come bringing scarcity, a harsher and more bitter environment. We can easily interpret these as good and evil, but they are the natural course of events in the cycle of life and death.

2. Social Resets: "history repeats itself"
This is what we are familiar with here. World Fairs and World Wars. The Middle Ages slew of historical revisions, and the curious names like the Industrial "revolution", cultural "revolution", American "revolution", all give hints to a cycle. Perpetuating. "Revealing the truth" also indicates of something being hidden again but in a different way. I don't think these are mere language artifacts or anomalies.

China's reset. For a recent example in China, Mao's Great Leap forward and Cultural Revolution have all been a notable stage of a reset process. (If you want to read, I highly recommend "Mao: the Unknown Story (Unabridged)" by Jung Chang.)

Moral resets : Knowledge changes our morals.
The change in perception of a good, or our "paradise" / "bright future" ...etc. will radically change how we decide to make it happen. If new knowledge changes our opinions, beliefs, and principles, then so changes our values.

Two examples:
1. The mythos of the Fall of Man. The garden of Eden, Paradise Lost, the humans are banished because they gained the knowledge of good and evil. New knowledge changed their perception, realizing their nakedness.

2. The logos behind the Soul's Justice. Plato's Republic has the similar theme: the decline of the Perfect State. Why? The children fall further away from virtue every generation. The state of government changes as the state of mind changes. Every step removed another degree from the divine to the worldly, temporal existence that is doomed to tyranny and destruction.

Our moral reset is the case of "revealing" our nakedness and then reclothing ourselves. We are eating the ripened fruit of our moral code only to discover once again that we are wearing "the emperor's new clothes". This makes a self-banishment from our former paradise, the old Garden of Eden, the decline from the old Perfect State, and forces us to make a new and better one. These changes are inevitable like the seasons and the Fall of Man is the season before Winter. "Winter's coming"

Someone from here mentioned this:
Learning is cyclic. There's a famous quote about that where you go through a mountain of material and come back to the beginning only understanding it for the first time. You may have heard something to that effect once or twice as a quote from T.S. Eliot's Poem “Little Gidding."

Thanks for the link. I've just read the Vice article. My immediate reflex is that I would never allow some mystery tapes developed with the CIA anywhere near my mind. My understanding of intelligence agencies is that they have spent hundreds of years figuring out ways to hack into people's minds and transform them into remote-controlled zombies. Part of the Hemi-Sync technique apparently involves repeating, "I am merely a physical body and deeply desire to expand my consciousness" as weird hypnotic frequencies are beamed into the brain. This sounds like an invitation to dissociate. Who knows what goes in afterwards? I wouldn't be surprised if all the people who buy these tapes find themselves "randomly" meeting weird people afterwards who recruit them into cults.

Also, the woman who wrote the article you link to at the Monroe Institute seems pretty lame. She has an MBA from Texas Tech. I am maybe being a snob here but I generally don't listen to people with profiles like hers. People get MBA's because they want to get rich. They get MBA's because they fully endorse the collective money and status hallucination. So the woman is either a spook or a sellout.

That's not to say that the technique might not be completely legitimate. It certainly sounds plausible, but what do I know? I adhere to the "holographic universe" theory, and this technique appears to dovetail with that. I would actually be tempted to try it if I could somehow trust the source. If what they claim is true, it must be incredible. Have you done it?

I have personally worked with hemisync, as well as created hundreds of my own binaural beats to listen to as is, or to layer in meditation music. Although the hemisync cds were benign that I heard, I also felt a little wary of trusting CIA tools. So I learned to make my own. It took a fair deal of experimentation to find frequencies that worked well for me, and they usually do not produce identical results in others. I use a program called sbagen. Easy to use.
The concept is simple. if you send a different frequency to the right and left ear, the difference between frequencies is a "beat" that the body clocks to.
So 100hz to the left ear and 108hz to the right produces a beat of 8hz. Which is generally in alpha range for alertness. That kind of thing.

The most useful effects for me were in gamma range of less than 1hz.
During meditation it would cause me to enter sleep, the body goes numb, and then you wake up below sleep state but aware. Time and space seems to almost flip. 3 dimensions of time and 1 of space instead of the other way around. It was interesting.
Nowadays I have listened to enough beats where it's enough to just think towards a state and the body will adjust on the fly. Useful for changing response patterns to stress situations for me.
Your own mileage may vary.

 

[Frostychud]

I had an idea recently that remains on the level of pure speculation. Let's imagine that disembodied thought-forms exist and are associated with the planets. Call them Archons. It would appear that these Archons are extemely interested in what happens here on Earth, much more interested than we are in what happens off of Earth. It would also appear that they "want" bodies, otherwise why else would they constantly interfere with us? My idea is the following. Earth is apparently the densest body in the Solar System. If you accept the geocentric model proposed by Tycho Brahe and reprised by Simon Shack, then Earth would also be (almost) immobile at the barycenter of the system, whereas the other bodies are all moving very fast. Let me add another layer. If you accept the Electric Universe stacked planets model, then there was a time when all the planets in the vertical stack (Earth, Mars, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune) were also immobile. Now let me make a leap. What is matter? I believe it is light that has been slowed down to the point where it becomes dense. We are in the habit of thinking of the density of matter as a limit to our aetheric potential and as something to escape, but what if the opposite is true? What if light must be slowed down for certain alchemical interactions to take place? What if Earth is the most interesting and most dynamic place in the Solar System precisely because it is so dense and slow?

I have a friend who once ran for political office. I attended a few of his debates and I was both impressed and troubled by how quickly and superficially he was able to answer every question that was posed to him. This inhuman glibness can of course be observed in all politicians. In the case of my friend, it was as if he flipped a switch and turned off his real self. By doing so, he was able to decouple words from their deeper meaning, from their intimate relationship with truth, from their specific resonance with his body's individual soul-signature, and as a result manipulate them in a way that was purely instrumental. It was both impressive and uncanny. I could never do this. Whenever I am asked a difficult question, I like to think for a long time before answering. I feel like a real-time debate is absolutely the worst way to approach the truth, because it accelerates speech and ideas beyond the speed of thought. Maybe other people can think faster than me, but I suspect these people are generally not thinking, just running through metonymies. Hypnotized subjects can spin the most incredible lies in real time with disconcerting facility. Iain McGilchrist remarks in The Master and his Emissary how the left brain has no concept of truth, or rather, the only criterion of truth it possesses is instrumental and linked with domination.

So here is my idea, which can also simply be taken as a metaphor. What if the Archons want to embody on Earth because the slowness and density here is therapeutic for them? In "Return of the Living Dead", there is a scene where the humans capture a zombie and ask her why she needs to eat brains. "The pain," she responds. Zombies are in a constant state of pain and brains dull the pain. Perhaps disembodied thought-forms suffer in a similar way from the speed of their thought. They think so quickly, so instrumentally, and so syllogistically that they can never approach the truth of who they really are. Maybe bodies are machines for trapping thought and slowing it down long enough for it to grow into a soul. Perhaps the Archons only think that they are here to enslave and torture us. In reality they are here to evolve, only they don't know it (following again Hegel's "cunning of Reason"). Actually this links up with another element in Hegel's system, namely the famous dialectic of the master and the slave. Hegel suggests that "in the beginning" there is a primordial encounter between two men which quickly becomes a struggle for pure prestige. The struggle ends when one man submits to the other, at which point he becomes a slave and the other man a master. But we are only at the beginning of the dialectic. All dialectics sooner or later flip into their opposite. Hegel suggests that the Master puts the Slave to work. By working, the Slave gains knowledge, knowledge of himself, knowledge of the material world, whereas the Master remains stupid. Eventually the original dialectic is overturned as the Slave evolves precisely thanks to his slavery. Maybe by genetically engineering, enslaving, and devouring us, the gods are unconsciously and unknowingly "purifying" humanity into a form that will eventually "defeat" them, not through strength but through humility? This lines up very well with Christianity and would seem to be an argument for this religion...

Bringing this back to psychoanalysis, the entire psychoanalytic enterprise is based on the simple idea that at the very core of the unconscious is a (more or less hidden) desire to move towards something called the truth. This desire often does not appear clearly as such, especially when one is trapped at a lower level of consciousness, addiction or perversion, for example. The paradox of the death drive is that it also contains its contrary, the drive towards integration, in however distorted a form it may appear. The poet Holderlin said (I paraphrase) "There where the poison grows, also grows the cure". How so? Well, for psychoanalysis, the death drive = the compulsion to repeat trauma. Concretely the death drive manifests itself as repetitive behavior that circles around a repressed memory or desire. As long as the repression remains intact, the repetitive behavior continues. Just as a gravitational orbit is the result of a "perfect equilibrium" between two opposing forces (the downward gravitational attraction of the major body plus the straight-line momentum of the orbiting moon), the symptom is located at the equilibrium point of the "healthy" desire to escape the gravitational pull of the trauma and the "sick" desire to suicidally merge with the trauma. So the parasitic symptom functions exactly like a tidally locked moon which can be more or less massive and more or less distant from the planet. The goal of analysis, then, is to decrease the gravitational pull of the trauma so that the "moon" can be released into deep space. (Let me just say in passing that I believe the actual mechanics of our solar system are more electromagnetic than gravitational, but it doesn't change the basic metaphor, since in both cases we have balanced fields that generate fixed orbits.) It is interesting that in occult traditions, the moon is often seen as a source of evil and deception. Hidden Nature of the Moon

There is the idea in psychoanalysis that the way forward always lies through the death drive, not around it. A patient undergoing analysis must tarry with his darker impulses, which generally involves acting them out to some degree, in order to refine them into words. Let me put it another way. Psychoanalysts tend to see repetitive embodied actions and behaviors as crude, material renderings of purely immaterial strings of symbols. The analytic technique, here openly Kabbalistic, consists in removing the material husk from the "spark of light" that it conceals. A symptom is a desire or a memory that has been "slowed down" to the point where it becomes a material compulsion. A drug addict does not perceive his addiction as the material rendering of a repressed idea or fantasy. He perceives it as a purely biological craving. But the psychoanalytic wager is that the eventual dissolution of the symptom...easier said than done...involves extracting the original symbolic DNA in which the symptom was written.

What causes a symptom to form in the first place? A trauma that is too great for the subject to metabolize symbolically. Basically the first few years of our lives are lived in a state of frequent terror and trauma. Watch a baby scream. When is the last time you screamed like that? He's doing it for a reason. He does not have the ability to symbolize and therefore discharge any of the negative stimuli he receives from both within and without. Psychoanalytic theory suggests that when we experience trauma that exceeds our capacity to understand or metabolize, either as children or as adults, we have no choice but to "slow it down", transform it into matter, into material symptoms, and then we stack this (radioactive) matter in a basement that we then lock. We can then choose to live our lives as if nothing had happened, but of course that radioactive stuff in the basement will slowly poison us unless we go down there, break it down into its more stable component elements, and disperse it to the wind. Of course, this is a dangerous operation because in the meantime, that trauma has not changed. It remains as potent as it was the day it was encountered. A concrete example. My father is a war veteran who understandably refuses to talk about his experiences. Recently he was having dinner with acquaintances when one of them said, very tastelessly in my opinion, "Hey Frosty Sr., you were in Vietnam. What was it like?" My father froze and tears started to run down his cheeks even as his conscious mind was blank. His body was reliving a war trauma but his mind was not. A few sound waves hit his eardrum, his brain translated the interference pattern into words, and something about these specific words triggered a cascade of hormonal and neurological reactions that had been "frozen" somewhere in his body for over fifty years without losing any of their immediacy. The memory has been completely separated from the physiological response and the only way to rejoin the two is through language. Not just any language, the specific poetic/alchemical formula that alone can "unlock" the encysted trauma.

So...putting it all together...

Does the specific density of Earth, a density that is perhaps linked with its stable place at the barycenter of the solar system, make it a place where trauma can more easily be (1) externalized in the form of "mineral" symptoms in order to then be (2) metabolized back into pure light? Hegel calls this basic mechanism "negation of negation". In other words, do Archons have to come here to work off their trauma? Is this the only place in the solar system dense enough to "contain" the massive traumas these Archons have lived through? Keep in mind that in the beginning stages of a psychoanalytic cure, the patient often gets superficially "worse" before getting better. Perhaps these planetary Archons were themselves also once located at the immobile barycenter of the system (stacked vertically as suggested by Wal Thornhill I believe) and were then banished to their current orbits which accelerate existence beyond any hope of slowing down long enough to think? Following this conceit, the Sun would be the most "evil" entity in the Solar System, and perhaps Saturn is actually a misunderstood but traumatized ally.

(continued)

Heavily traumatized individuals develop amnesia. They respond to shame, pain, and abjection by constructing a fake history in which they are beautiful and everything is wonderful. Yet the truth inevitably emerges in the form of some kind of self-destructive symptom. I believe that this too is a programmed reflex. In my opinion this is the key to understanding the psychology of the Corona opera. The more people were traumatized, abused, exploited, brainwashed, and bullied, the more psychically necessary it became for them to believe that not only was everything OK, but what was happening was actually beautiful and wonderful. Hence the bizarre short-circuit between Covid compliance and utopianism. I believe that hardcore Covid compliers came to see their behavior as a sort of beautiful cosmic mission to redeem humanity (which is incidentally something that is regularly found in paranoid schizophrenia). In reality they were so shocked by the sudden sadistic turn taken by their own "beautiful" masters that they took refuge in a beautiful fantasy that objectively functioned as a screen allowing their masochism to function unimpeded. Deep down they believed they deserved to be treated sadistically, thanks to the fundamental fantasy, which can only function if it remains safely repressed. They masked and vaxxed hard in a desperate attempt to pay their shame debt to the Big Other (a debt whose variable interest rate had just gone up), even going so far as to offer their own children to Moloch as gauges of their loyalty.

Here I think of David Lynch's masterpiece, Mulholland Drive, in which all of the preceding elements are present. There is a holographic intertextuality between multiple characters and narrative threads, articulated around mysterious symbols like the blue key which have a "density" proper to authentic unconscious symbols. A lot of writers and filmmakers attempt to pull this off, but the conscious mind is incapable of creating symbols which have a true center of gravity, and we intuitively reject them as false. In Lynch we always also the pervasive theme of repressed trauma, denied origins, and the flight into a beautiful fantasy world. One of the incredible "holographic" features of this film is that upon analysis it yields an infinite number of uncanny internal correspondences and nested metaphors that are too precise to be simply gratuitous constructions on the part of the interpreter, yet are far too complex for Lynch to have intended consciously. Another feature of this film is, in my opinion, its incredible cathartic power. Like Beckett, Lynch is not afraid to confront the fundamental experience of humanity which is humiliation. It is no coincidence that Lynch channels all of his stories and images from an unconscious state.

This unconscious, the one an artist like Lynch uses to construct his work, is not the parasitic unconscious described by Freud. This would be the "native" human unconscious that exists "before" it is attacked by the parasitic unconscious. This is the unconscious that intuits the truth and spontaneously expresses it symbolically. In neurosis, intuition is hijacked. The voice in our gut gives us bad advice. Its compass is broken. One of the goals of psychoanalysis is to restore this native unconscious to its original functioning state. This unconscious uses dreams to communicate the truth to us and lead us forward in life. The parasitic unconscious uses dreams to lead us into traps, but it can never silence the true unconscious. Freud says somewhere (I paraphrase) that the voice of desire speaks softly, but it can never be silenced, whereas the voice of the superego or Big Other always shouts. In concrete practice, the goal of the analyst is to distinguish between the constituent elements of the symbol that lead to false hypnotic programming and the golden threads which lead down to the core of the dreamer's true self, which is trapped inside the fundamental fantasy. The parasitic unconscious deploys all its art to confuse the crime scene, but it can never completely destroy the traces of what "really happened". It can take a long time in psychoanalysis, but the voice of truth inevitably grows stronger.

Here it is worth mentioning the work of Julian Jaynes and Iain McGilchrist. Jaynes believed that humans were all basically hallucinating until about three thousand years ago, with these hallucinations guided by stone idols, monuments, pyramids, and statues. He argues convincingly that there is no trace of subjectivity proper in anything written before the Odyssey. McGilchrist is a neuroscientist who focuses on the functioning of the two hemispheres of the brain. In his big book "The Master and his Emissary", he paints a picture of a deeply divided brain. The left hemisphere functions basically like an AI, reducing all input to discrete bytes of information that can then be assembled and manipulated as a computer might, with the same "context blindness" that plagues all AI. The right hemisphere, on the contrary, exists in a mysterious direct connection with outside reality that goes beyond the sense organs and indeed cannot be explained. In McGilchrist's model, reality is apprehended directly by the right hemisphere, then sent through the corpus callosum to the left hemisphere to be processed, at which point it is returned, in reassembled form, to the right hemisphere, where the two sets of information, one raw, one processed, are blended into a higher-order holographic truth. The RH is the "Master" and the LH is the "Emissary" whose job is to serve the master. McGilchrist argues that recent human history is the history of the usurpation of the RH by the LH. He goes as far as to argue that the LH uses us to terraform our environment into an artificial, Borg-like construct that the fundamentally autistic LH feels "comfortable" in, eliminating anything that is poetic, uncertain, allusive, metaphorical, alive, composed of curves rather than right angles, or melancholic. My understanding is that he sees this process as an out of control autocatalytic loop.

I will bring in one more thinker to complete the idea I am presenting here. Rupert Sheldrake argues that the brain is essentially a "radio antenna" that receives information from some kind of etheric psy-field. We do not entirely exist in our brains (or our bodies); they are simply receivers for transcendental forms that exist in some Platonic field outside of us. Putting it all together, is it possible that our brains were originally intended to pick up signals from the "source", but were later hijacked and tuned to the frequency of the Archons? Was the left hemisphere somehow strengthened through genetic manipulation? From this point of view, psychoanalysis could be seen as an attempt to retune the mind to the RH source of consciousness. McGilchrist is clear that the left hemisphere is not "bad". It is just soulless and autistic, and needs to be subordinated to the "holistic" right hemisphere in order to promote life. Here too we see a correspondence with the Gnostic concept of Archons which can only copy reality and have no will so to speak, since they are pure automatons.

Returning to the theory of Jaynes, what I always found least convincing was his idea that everyone was able to hear the "same" divine voices simply by interacting with the same stone idols. I have worked with psychotics in a clinical setting and as a rule their delusions are airtight and strictly personal. They do not hallucinate together. But what if the voices everyone was hearing were indeed broadcast to them psychically by a really-existing outside intelligence located in the psy-field? Perhaps all the paintings, drawings, and sculptures of monstrous man-eating gods we have inherited are in fact representations of collective hallucinations put there by entities who "used" the LH/radio in our heads/parasitic unconscious to "project" demons who commanded us to perform real sacrifices in order that they might feed on the life energy or "loosh" that they crave but which they cannot procure on their own due to an inability or difficulty incarnating in the specific density of Earth. Perhaps the voices went silent three thousand years ago for the simple reason that the transmitter had been damaged in some kind of cataclysm.

In my personal life, I have come to the conclusion that for an individual psychoanalysis to be successful, it must eventually move from the inside to the outside. In the Lacanian tradition, psychoanalysis ends when the patient accepts that the Big Other does not exist in an ontological sense. Yes, it exists as a voice in his head, and yes, it exists outside him inasmuch as others who are hypnotized by the Big Others in their heads function as zombie slaves working unconsciously to "bring back the Antichrist", but it has no material existence of its own, in other words, it only exists because we listen to it. And when we stop listening to it, those others who remain in thrall to the hypnosis lose their unconscious power over us (even as they still have material power over us). This leaves the patient in a position that is more existentially authentic, but also more difficult, as it inevitably entails conflict with the outside world. During Covid, for example, someone who has not yet unplugged from the "inner Big Other" will be vulnerable to psychic attack from maskers and vaxxers on television or in their families. Someone who has realized that the Big Other has no ontological consistency will easily be able to resist this psychic violence, but will still find himself contending with actual, material coercion, which, although oppressive, is much easier to deal with. In my experience, once we unplug from the Big Other, we can suddenly "see" secret passages, hidden tunnels, workarounds and shortcuts that were invisible before. Lacan refused to speak the language of magic or mysticism in general, but the concept of "desire" in his teaching can easily be interpreted this way. For Lacan, desire is something like a river of psychic energy that has the power to alter reality directly. When desire is undammed, life becomes enchanted and "reality" stops hindering you and starts actively helping you. It is only after experiencing firsthand the magic of desire that you can begin to appreciate how unreal reality is. In other words (my words), psychoanalysis ends when we realize that the Annunaki that created (or simply modified) us left this realm at some point and we no longer need to listen to the voice they put in our heads. Carlos Castaneda says something similar when Don Juan tells him that the "Flyers", the parasitic creatures that feed on humans, "gave us their mind" to maintain us at the level of cattle. I think that the organic next step from a "completed" psychoanalysis involves questioning the veracity of the outside story, the story of our objective history, which is no less false and delusional than the childish stories we tell ourselves about our individual origins. On a personal level, after years of being intellectually uninspired by academic philosophy and institutional psychoanalysis, I rediscovered my passion for knowledge when I encountered the historical criticism community.

I will end this post with a little bit of pure speculation regarding our past.

It is my current belief that humans were created by creatures with access to what might be called the "fourth dimension". They can (or could) move between the incarnate world and the world of forms. I believe that the planets are concentrations of mass that spontaneously accrete at places where multiple streams of energetic charge intersect in the form of standing waves (I take this from Joseph Farrell). I believe that these streams of charge are intelligent and the planets function as huge brains. Miles Mathis suggests that charge shoots out from the galactic center where it is captured and recycled by heavenly bodies that are in constant "communication" with each other. The Sun picks up charge from the Galactic Center, then sends it to the planets, which then send it back to the Sun, and so on all the way down to the atomic level. Each planet has its own resonant frequency and therefore its own identity, its own "intelligence". These intelligences can, or could, manifest on Earth in the form of chimerical gods with real material bodies. Or perhaps they could simply send Solaris-like images of these fantastic bodies to hypnotized, psychotic slaves incapable of distinguishing between hallucination and reality. This is the only way I can explain to myself the persistent association of the gods with the planets. It is very difficult not to reduce one to the other. Astrotheologists reduce the gods to planetary metaphors, but in so doing, they throw out all the real proof that godlike creatures really existed on Earth, really had bodies, really ate people, etc. Conversely, believers in the "flesh and blood gods" posit that these gods inevitably associated themselves with the planets, but there is no real explanation for why, considering that seen from Earth, the planets are just little moving dots of light. Some suggest that they arrived from these planets in spacecraft, but this doesn't sound right to me either. The theory presented here provides at least a superficially scientific corroboration of the esoteric myths according to which the white light of God filtered down through the seven heavens, each ruled by lower and lower Archons, until attaining Earth. I should add also that Simon Shack's Tychosium is of interest here (and probably deserves its own thread). In his system, based on Tycho Brahe's, the Earth is indeed (almost) immobile at the barycenter of our solar system. Here we have an elegant metaphor for the old Gnostic and Christian myths that Earth is somehow at the center of creation and that the planetary Archons, although more powerful and more intelligent than humans, are also destined to serve humans because they lack something that we possess. They continually try to mess with us, but the natural resonance of the Earth keeps pushing humans to evolve towards a form that is immanent to the Earth's central, stable position in the Solar System, and whose highest manifestations, in my view, are irony and humility, as opposed to the grandiose arrogance of the beautiful gods. There are no Samuel Becketts in the pantheon, just winged, unfunny monsters with sterile superpowers who pose like bodybuilders for their boring statues. Humans were inflicted with a "child lock" on their consciousness in the form of this receiver tuned to Archon frequency (thanks to Jef Demolder for this expression) that prevented them from perceiving anything beyond material existence. Yet humans still evolved. Today we are seeing the Archons absolutely pulling out all the stops to keep humanity down. I don't know if they are the ones causing the recurring catastrophes or if on the contrary these catastrophes are "natural" and have made it harder for them to incarnate on Earth. I don't know if we are heading for some mass enlightenment event or on the contrary, some mass enslavement or extinction event.

To conclude, the purpose of this thread is to offer what to my mind is yet more "confirmation" of certain theories discussed here from a discipline, psychoanalysis, that is rarely brought up in this context. I have attempted to speak with some of my psychoanalyst colleagues about these ideas, but as a general rule they are not interested.

Wow! I just came across stolen history and your article is the first I happened to read. I intend to backtrack to study it in more depth when Ihave time, but I sincerely thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and observations which just intuitively hit me as on target.

(continued)

Heavily traumatized individuals develop amnesia. They respond to shame, pain, and abjection by constructing a fake history in which they are beautiful and everything is wonderful. Yet the truth inevitably emerges in the form of some kind of self-destructive symptom. I believe that this too is a programmed reflex. In my opinion this is the key to understanding the psychology of the Corona opera. The more people were traumatized, abused, exploited, brainwashed, and bullied, the more psychically necessary it became for them to believe that not only was everything OK, but what was happening was actually beautiful and wonderful. Hence the bizarre short-circuit between Covid compliance and utopianism. I believe that hardcore Covid compliers came to see their behavior as a sort of beautiful cosmic mission to redeem humanity (which is incidentally something that is regularly found in paranoid schizophrenia). In reality they were so shocked by the sudden sadistic turn taken by their own "beautiful" masters that they took refuge in a beautiful fantasy that objectively functioned as a screen allowing their masochism to function unimpeded.

I read most of your post a week ago...had to stop because my mind was overwhelmed. Too much to think about all at once because so many things you said resonated with me. Then had a busy week and came back to this as a treat for myself. The last bit (that I just read) about the planets/gods...I agree that it must be something like you describe - have always wondered what the heck? And so many explanations we are handed are just ridiculous and it amazes me that more people don't even hesitate before swallowing it. I don't think they are "planets" because I have observed them through telescopes and a Nikon P1000, which has an incredible zoom. They are literally twinkling lights of various colors. Which makes more sense to me in light of your theory that they are disembodied beings. I feel like this is so close to the truth...but we are missing a crucial piece. Why 6 wondering "planets"? Why does Venus travel in the opposite direction? As another commenter said, we, as humans, want to know the whole story!

You mentioned Netflix and the nephew of Bernays... there is no doubt that Netflix AND the other "programming" providers are doing double duty: distracting and wasting our heartbeats while also reinforcing the BS we have been fed all of our lives. Point in case is the new show "The Gilded Age" on HBO. From the opening scene, it is an obvious effort to provide an explanation as to how these magnificent mansions could have been built in the mid to late 1800s. And, IMO, from what I have watched so far, They are setting it up so that the viewer will feel empathic towards the robber barons. Also IMO it is a very inaccurate version of what it was like at that time and place. But is very effective to 95% of the population... they will incorporate things they see and hear into their computer-like database brain and it will be mixed in like cake batter with everything else they think they know about reality. (I know that sounds judgy).
Which brings me to another thing that has always really bothered me. How many movies and TV programs are there about the Jewish Holocaust? There is an unproportional amount to say the least. And that is no accident. That story is in cement, as they say. No undoing that lie.

I have been thinking about what you wrote about dreams. Very interesting. I want to re read that part but I have to go for now. Thank you for all of these ideas. You have given me so much to think about.

Girls in 1860 got their first period at the age of 16.6 on average. Today the average is 11.9. Perhaps there is some chemical or hormonal component, but in my opinion it has more to do with the fact that girls today are surrounded by sexualized "thought-forms" or hexes which act directly on their bodies.

you write: Girls in 1860 got their first period at the age of 16.6 on average. Today the average is 11.9.


This true-ism is not true. Age of puberty is largely unchanged and varies by climate (hotter = earlier), genetics, environment, and diet.

In 19th century London the age was higher because of specific environmental conditions, while the traditonal Eskimo age of puberty onset was typically the same 11/12 years old we see today.

Children aren't starting puberty younger, medieval skeletons reveal

 

[Jef Demolder]

Frostychud, I think there is a more simple, ontological reason why archons and other disembodied or monadic minds want to participate in our materialized life (matter as such does not exist, what we call matter is spatial/temporal extension, see Descartes). It has to do with the modes of being. Between non-being and full being we have a gradation of being. The first grade is the pure ideal/potential mode of disembodied forms. The second grade is our contingent mode of being, a combination of ideal and real being. And then full being or pure reality/actuality is the being of the Ultimate, who in the tradition is called "actus purus". Said in a simple way, we humans are closer to God than angels, archangels, archons and tutti quanti. Often it has been said that to have a spiritual life you have to escape from bodily conditions on the side of the more ideal beings. This way of thinking is a terrible error. The contrary is the case. The closer we are to simple reality, the closer we are to ultimate reality, the source of being/energy.
