Aletheia

In this new and revised edition of Oswald Spengler's classic, Man and Technics, Spengler makes a number of predictions that today, more than eighty years after the book was first published, have turned out to be remarkably accurate. Spengler predicted that industrialisation would lead to serious environmental problems and that countless species would become extinct. He also predicted that labour from Third World countries would increasingly outcompete Western workers by doing the same work for much lower wages, and that industrial production would therefore move to other parts of the world, such as East Asia, India, and South America. According to Spengler, technology has not only made it possible for man to harness the forces of nature; it has also alienated him from nature. Modern technology now dominates our culture instead of that which is natural and organic. After having made himself the master of nature, man has himself become technology's slave. 'The victor, crashed, is dragged to death by the team', Spengler summarises. Finally, Spengler foresaw that Western man would eventually grow weary of his increasingly artificial lifestyle and begin to hate the civilisation he himself created... https://www.amazon.co.uk/Man-Technics-Contribution-Philosophy-Life/dp/1910524174

The way the error was unwound was through conscious materalism. Plato's rationalism had to be jettisoned and with it went ideas of soul and immortal freedom. That was achieved through empiricism. Kant tried to resurrect the subtle realms with his transcendental Idealism, but he confessed to not having any knowledge of such things. It's in the video I posted.

According to the video in the previous comment to yours, yes! That's where the error became embedded within the tradition as the timeless simple forms. The forms overcode and yoke over authentic spiritual intelligence.

My dad was asking why I'm always prophesying the apocalypse and I said, well that's not really what I personally believe, that's just culture!

Light bulb is pure information, it has no content and is therefore a messenger of doom.

What I relate is the history of the next two centuries. I describe what is coming, what can no longer come differently: the advent of nihilism. This history can be related even now; for necessity itself is at work here. This future speaks even now in a hundred signs, this destiny announces itself everywhere; for this music of the future all ears are cocked even now. For some time now, our whole European culture has been moving as toward a catastrophe, with a tortured tension that is growing from decade to decade: restlessly, violently, headlong, like a river that wants to reach the end, that no longer reflects, that is afraid to reflect. http://nietzsche.holtof.com/Nietzsche_the_will_to_power/the_will_to_power_book_I.htm

Quite frankly I remain unconvinced by Plato's cave meditation, clearly he had deviated from the royal path. Human perfection and technical perfection are incompatible. If we strive for one, we must sacrifice the other: there is, in any case, a parting of the ways. Whoever realises this will do cleaner work one way or the other. ― Ernst Jünger Cultural realities in civilisations are creations formulated from extensions of the body whose purpose is to lull people into narcissistic states of forgetfulness. That is where they receive their characteristics, from the body. Western metaphysics extends the eye in various guises, each with their own occulted reality architectonic -- papyrus, codices, print press -- post-metaphysics, Nietzsche's death of god, extends the central nervous system -- telegram, radio, tv etc -- We shape our tools and thereafter our tools sh(ape) us With TV technology had perfected itself as hyperextensions -- then with digital technology machines come "alive" as self-stimulating cybernetic artificial intelligences! The singularity ALREADY HAPPENED AS TECHNO-REVELATION. Your consciousness has already been uploaded into alien cyber-systems. So it turns out that the best way to truth in western culture is through its artforms, not science, but only as a way to understanding culturescapes. It's not the real way, only mimetic simulations and simulacrum! Satellites are heavenly bodies aping immortality as parody realised by Jackson Pollock's space stations! Blade Runner 2049 is a report on the current state of culture which I do not take seriously on account of my having no need for culture forms because I'm back in my own body becoming immortal!

Plato is the most evil person in the history of the world. Most likely he played a part with the death of Socrates too.

When I meditate I use the hand position where you have both palms of each hand facing the dan tien. Left hand closer to the dan tien and right hand on the outside. Then I put my thumb of the right hand in the middle of the left palm and then connect the thumb and middle finger of the left hand together. Then when I meditate I have the thumb and middle finger (roughly) pointing, or rather at the same level, to the navel, about 2 inches in front, so when I breath in i feel electric energy shooting from the fingers into the dan tien! So on the in breath energy goes up the spine while energy is also compacted in the dan tien. Then on the out breath the dan tien opens for more energy as it comes down from above and then the process is repeated. I've got loads of energy right now, even when I'm not meditating. I just pushed my palms together in front of my body and could feel the energy field pushing into my chest and okay I have one vice, an electronic ecigarette, earlier I had it in my hand as my hands were together in front of my dan tien as I was sitting in front of the computer and I could feel, from the magnetic vortex in my head, its magnetic field at the dan tien!

She used to have a video of the older stuff but she took it down.

Another one by Lauge -

Bit boring that one. The gnostic one is good.

Another one. I literally stopped the video where he says Heidegger was a deconstructionist, which is wrong because Heidegger tried to perform a destruction of metaphysics in order to think Being concretely like the presocratics. Deconstructionism is Derridean -

A gnostic one -

yeah, the only thing complete about that guy is his being a complete tit HAHAH. He's so smug too, as if he's got everything worked out!

Right well I now think that in meditation first you have to get to a post-death state of awareness by awakening the energies and then go through the 3 realms of reality in order to become immortal. That Sarah girl from youtube is seeing the undead, so she's caught up in the middle kingdom fighting ghosts as a "warrior." But she has to meditate to get beyond that stage to build up more energy and bring everything back together again as syntheses of complete reality. All that stuff has to be done within the physical body so that whatever stage you're in when you die is where you'll get caught up post-death. Okay that's just what I think right now, I'm sure things will change at some point

The Mad Hatter -- all the best people are crazy!

A man with a soul Okay I'm going to start doing 4 hours meditation a day to build up my energy. Starting from now!

The dissonant mood-setting in our post-industrial sonospheres, a cold senseless universe dreamt into existence by present-day culture. It's permeated and tempered with the spiritual stuff like yin and yang lol -

I'm watching Western Civilisation implode in on itself while wondering where exactly is my mind?
