@thepurpose @Jack @LynAlden @JackMallers @JeffBooth @Ava @withthegrain @saylor @BTCFrame This paints a picture of the human condition as one marked by misunderstanding, internal conflict, and the slow growth of wisdom from the mistakes we make. Is it pointing to the complexity of life, where human flaws and emotions are constantly at play, influencing our perceptions and decisions. Sorry about giving my interpretation this time too, but it seemed a bit abrstract to not add that. ------ "Thoughts of poverty manipulate over zelous ignorance into unaccountable inaccuracies regarding reputations. Meddlesome offences of spirit outwit willing dissappointment. Wisdom is truncated foolishness." ------ #Poetry #Consciousness #DonJuan #Mysticism #Mindfulness #Philosophy #bitcoin #Zaps

@thepurpose @Jack @LynAlden @JackMallers @JeffBooth @Ava @withthegrain @saylor @BTCFrame This is more going to be an expectation for the future: Society's approach to health and illness will one day be fundamentally different. The difference will be the result of the way society considers health and illness as the same thing. They are the same. And when that fact is finally a part of individual awareness, or consciousness, or whatever you choose to call our 'knowingness', then there will not even be the concept of "health and illness," there will just be..., well..., probably at that point a new word will have evolved, a word which reflects that particular 'knowingness' about that aspect of our human beingness. Don't assume now, that I'm advocating anything. No, no, no. I wouldn't ever suggest for others what they should do, or how they should believe, or how they should approach their own lives. I'm simply saying that human society will evolve to the point where "health and illness" are no longer a part of the vocabulary, except that you might find them in history books; listed as ancient superstitions from the religious-arrogant age. Perhaps there will be an accompanying note regarding the vast amount of resources spindled during that age, chasing "evil." That term will, of course, also be defined and listed as a superstition, something like this, "Evil: a concept held during the religious-arrogant age of human history whereby some aspects of human existence were established as that which should be opposed with the desire and intention to destroy. Religious-arrogant age: the period of human history assumably predating recorded human history and ending during the first half of the third millennium A.D. in which the vast majority of humans knew only the first attention, and those few who had ventured into the second attention inspired a worshipping mentality among the masses toward the unknown. #Poetry #Consciousness #DonJuan #Mysticism #Mindfulness #Philosophy #bitcoin

@thepurpose @Jack @LynAlden @JackMallers @JeffBooth @Ava @withthegrain @saylor @BTCFrame I like to spit out words without thinking and then read it to see if I've accidentally stumbled onto something interesting. For example the following. Whenever the outrageously inconsistent consequences of converging quandaries convene on unsuspected anomalies the result is always a perfunctory kaleidoscope of converging chaos. #Poetry #Consciousness #DonJuan #Mysticism #Mindfulness #Philosophy #bitcoin #Zap

@thepurpose @Jack @LynAlden @JackMallers @JeffBooth @Ava @withthegrain @saylor @BTCFrame Whenever you think that you can come to the front of a new topic in the sense of one's being on the leading edge, the start position, the beginning, the front; and you have no idea about how you are really going to proceed, then drop back and punt. This isn't really a new strategy. No. This is just something that works. If you try to force your way into something, about which you have no understanding, you are bound to get your teeth kicked in. #Poetry #Consciousness #DonJuan #Mysticism #Mindfulness #Philosophy #bitcoin #zap

@thepurpose @Jack @LynAlden @JackMallers @JeffBooth @Ava @withthegrain @saylor @TheGuySwann Speaking of @WernerErhard, I compiled his 3.5 hour early 80's event, "The Heart of the Matter" to 30 minutes. You can find the whole 3.5 hour event by googling 'the heart of the matter', but here is a link to my 30 minute compiled version. Please listen to it! You'll love it!!

@thepurpose @lynalden Greg Foss came back on Nataly Brunel’s podcast today. He spoke some about personal issues. I’d had no idea about his situation. But I just wished that I had had the words to explain that non of it is relevant … “bipolar” … whatever, when we learn to silence our mind! I know that that is very different to actually ‘get’. If we could just drop any thinking about what others think… well, that doesn’t come to us naturally… and yet!! So, listening to Greg, I just wished that there was a way for all of us to just always be present to the present moment! Not that Greg wasn’t doing that, but rather just understanding, myself, how challenging it is to ACTUALLY do that. #philosophy #bitcoin #I’mSoWise #lol

@npub15dqlghlewk84wz3pkqqvzl2w2w36f97g89ljds8x6c094nlu02vqjllm5 @saylor I'm disappointed in Max Kaiser for falsely accusing you of slander against El Salvador's president. I wrote to him on X pointing out that you never said that El Salvador only had bitcoin with which to pay expenses but rather were making a point about the advantage of well established banks being able to custody it and loan against it. So I asked him rhetorically who owed whom an apology.
