    Transcendental persona modification is a method that I stumbled upon while dabbling in symbolic disassociation and Transcendental Meditation. Though I found it quite effective, I did not stop where I should have and pushed myself to a psychological breaking point that I now have come to regret. Nevertheless, it was through this experience that I…

    The world is what it is, there ought to be no denying that. A grand chemical reaction, a giant mixer of intentions and powers acting upon each other trying to minimize risk while increasing their powers as much as possible. It’s a grand tapestry of blood, flesh and steel, longing for softness and grace but…

  • On Archetypes

    Our thought forms are biased based on patterns that fit into our taste profile for symbolic structure, and I see these structured thought forms as archetypes which are based not on some transcendent reality beyond our awareness, but are built upon the hidden factors that lead to and construct the human condition. Over evolutionary time,…

    A liberating thought passed through my mind again: Amovera. And with it, the entirety of what I was working on in theology was reduced again to objective reality, and I saw again the framework of Symbolic Engineering as the ideal mode of understanding ethics, religion, and politics. As my mind shifted to the new modus…

    Linguistic Anthropology informs us that meaning is crafted by human cultures. This means that before human culture crafts meaning as a mode of assigning values to concepts and things, there is no meaning, no value, to anything. The world is then just an absurd chemical reaction, without any intelligence or purpose behind any of its…

    The human mind is a complex entity, capable of great feats and susceptible to significant struggles. Everyone grapples with their mind, and it’s crucial to remember that mental health should never be used as an excuse to let our potential go to waste. We all have the capacity to function with effort, and it’s our…

    A long time ago, I called it Abstract Paradigm Organization Logistics. Now I just call it the Logos. APOL is the logistics of how paradigms are organized as abstract constructs of thought. This includes the processes of how thought is itself an abstract construct of life, how life is an abstract construct of chemistry, and…

    I have a vague idea of my own about how the mind achieves various levels of understanding, comprehension, and creativity. This idea is pure speculation and may stem from a completely rudimentary understanding of how the mind works, based on my casual dabbling in endocrinology and basic neuroanatomy. However, this is how I understand the…

    This is a much older piece from when I lived in Nelson BC, musing on the nature of art and corporate corruption, trying to think of how artists and spiritualists could go about making true art and achieving moral insight without depending on the world of money and capitalism. I have since developed a much…
