[...] The old expression “the plot begins to thicken” is an Exceptionology reference to thinware query command consciousness atolls thickening into thickware (thick thick air). Let’s just say the plot is beginning to thicken and will be thicker before we even notice. [...]

Weâ€™re supposed to believe that multi-culturalism is the cause of a lot of these types of problems (especially the weather).

Ha ha! I’ve never understood why some people (some of those who make up the One Person of which I’m a part?) get so uptight about multiculturalism.

Excellent take. Your posts get more hypnotic and real the closer you get (says someone who observes, not knows). It sort of bums me out though. Once you reach enlightenment, it’s going to be hard to make such clever, media savvy posts about it. A lot of spiritual-industrial complex types seem to pretend that’s not the case, but I think that’s because enlightenment doesn’t pay very well. The Real or the fetish of the Real. Such a hard choice!

… my personal take is that something very important resides in the act of distinguishing oneself from one’s environment.

This takes us way back to the Greek myth of Echo and Narcissus, which McLuhan riffed on for years. Narcissus fell in love with his own reflection /because he thought that the reflection was other than himself/ and poor cursed Echo could only repeat back to Narcissus whatever Narcissus said, thus merely reinforcing his delusion.

Interesting to note that one of the best arguments against the Turing Test for artificial intelligence is the number of supposed ‘real’ people who would fail the Test…

I noticed in the linked article that the mistrusted ones were the PTB.
Also, you’ve saved me a lot of research. I’ve had the “unreal” feeling crop up several times in the last few weeks during conversations with other people. I’m hit with sure clarity that they are not real and my conversation with them is not real. I keep talking while watching the programmed nonsense come out of my mouth. I hope this takes me somewhere good.

How do you think that the realization of this fact destroys most people?
Is it becuase it is a view unreconcilable with living in modern civilization?

This sounds a lot like Advaita Vedanta that I read about a year or so ago

I came for the pictures but stayed for the discussion.

I wonder about the notion that when a genuine claim is laid for the path of real reality, why it seems there arise fall signposts along the way? While the most high divine train source of all creative power conductor may punch the ticket, there may not be a clear call when to get off and make a needed transfer. Why, there are multitudes of false ego impulses, fairy gremlins, devils in disguises, UFOs and secret government cabals all prepared to sign up up for the other track - one that leads away from where you intended to go. Discernment of spirits is a rare charisma these days.

Maybe scientology will be big here in the USA, but I doubt mormonism will … however globally it is huge and that will continue. I read an opinion that L. Ron’s baby is positioned to become the government’s choice of ’spiritual direction.’ Are we clear on that?

What type of “air foods” are you talking? Natural or processed?

Hi Tim. I’ve been reading your blog for some time, but never took the initiative to make contact. But this post has really moved me in a very quantum level — especially the last part. It echoes that all too familair gnostic axiom: All is One. It’s posts like these that makes me thankful we have an internet.
