If you don’t know what’s possible in the real world — how can you know what’s possible in the realm of your psyche? You can’t even conceive the limits of the real world. Yet you believe all your made-up ideas about yourself: what you need, what you want, what you are. You decide you …

You’re Not An Exception
You’re not an exception. If you are – prove it ten times over. There are many flimsy reasons to believe oneself to be special but very few real ones. Check ten times before you dismiss a well-proven general rule. The reason to break all the rules is to break them, not your narcissistic whims …
Limitless Delusion
There’s no limit to delusion when you don’t test your believes against the real world. Inexplicably delusional delusion is simply an untested belief. Harbour beliefs long enough without testing them — and you WILL be crazy. The very definition of madness is this extreme divergence from reality. Seeing things? Hearing things? Your …
Gratitude Is Consciousness
True Gratitude is not some trick. Trick in which you talk yourself into being grateful and feed that brain with serotonin. Gratitude is recognition. Recognition is consciousness. Gratitude is consciousness. Gratitude is recognition. Recognition of the fact of being alive, the experience of existence, recognition of What-Is. To be conscious is to be …
you didn’t earn it you took it
You didn’t earn it. You took it. Stop implying a sacrifice. It’s a choice. To even imply a sacrifice is to make life harder. Why does there have to be this dichotomy? you earning it / you not earning it you deserving it / you not deserving it you making it / you …

You’re not arduously trying to impress somebody. You’re arduously trying to STOP trying to impress somebody. Trying to stop behaving in a preordained way. One is so …
Warning About Virtual Reality
Some time from now we will have rehabilitation centres focused on RE-WIRING the utterly NUMBED brain and healing the FRIED synapses — from the years of electronic overindulgence. I will continue to rant about this because virtual reality is 100% a drug. It’s addictive, extremely pleasurable, it’s CHEAP, it’s an EASY escape— and it’s …
Broken Men Can’t Fix The World
To one who knew too much suffering — it’s only natural for him to bring more suffering. You call it revenge or you call it justice — it’s just revenge. For every blustering “hero of justice” there’s some kid that’s been bullied, some young man who has been mistreated. Alas broken men can’t …
Idolatry Is Simply Absence Of Character, Ability Or Understanding
Idolatry is simply absence of character, ability or understanding. Truly high-ability men don’t idolise. Having developed a single skill to a high level — they no longer view it as some kind of a special talent or something out of the ordinary. If they need to learn something — they simply do. They don’t …
I Am Not Anonymous
I’m not anonymous. My “real identity” is less real then any of my many parts. It’s time at last we can abandon what we are not and be ourselves. We can express parts of ourselves otherwise deafened. We can channel them in a way which is precise and deliberate and true to our …
