A wise man once said : don’t subject yourself to the world’s sewage.

I’m out of here.

I’m a people and I’m not that way. I’m thinking there’s something weird going on. Some kind of hive conformity lord-of-the-flies ism thing. Maybe it has no name.

But they were mean. Why?

It’s the enforcement of conformity through meanness (and downvotes). That’s some kind of ism.

yes

The comments are almost uniformly ignoring my actual point, and insulting. There’s something weird going on here. Some kind of lord-of-the-flies virus.

I didn’t actually say any of that. What’s wrong with you people?

I didn’t realize that you were so traumatized (by that huge number of idiots) as to make simple conversation impossible. I’ll tread more lightly in the future.

It’s some kind of ism. Homogeneous hive thing.

I don’t think anybody actually brought up that particular angle of conversation. I’m happy to start with talking about what we see, but we seem to be skipping over that and leaping right to the “validity of the interpretation” part.

Which is perfectly ok I guess. Just not the conversation I’m shooting for here

I’ve been getting a lot of that. Variations on “nuh uh, you didn’t see that”. But that’s just avoiding my question or whatever.

I don’t mean to make any big pronouncement. I just want to discuss what you’ve seen, and think about, in that vicinity.

Where do you draw the line between what you take seriously and what you don’t?

I mean, when the water bill arrives in rhe mail. Illusion or not?

Does it get you high?

What’s your technique?

Ouch, my ego!

$8 a pound for pumpkin seeds. Can you believe that? It’s one step above what you’d pick out of a compost pile. Very nice and clean of course, but still. It should be dirt cheap. But no.

Ya, true.

I would like to participate in a forum just for people who see some. Do you know of one?

I mean that I begin lucid dreaming more as a result of vipassana

To see the creator : Concentration meditation on nose-tip-breath-feeling till good and concentrated. Then concentration on thought stream. Penetrating that, the “creator” becomes visible.

To see the land of the dead : Vipassana, lots of vipassana. Then lucid dreaming starts happening. Then one night I find myself in the land (city) of the dead.

But the sun rises in the east every morning. Surely you noticed.

What’s the difference between stew and soup?
