Re: Kid's Discussion

A few months ago, I thought about a round table discussion, and how hard it is to understand each other and to achieve real progress within the subject of the discussion. Do we really understand each other?
Did you ever notice that most often people express their opinion but that there is no real progress in the discussion per se. The mindset of the people involved in a discussion rarely changes, even more so when the subject has to do with either religion or politics. Both are based on beliefs and it is almost a given that people are not easily changing them, even if in light of raw facts. This means you can’t really discuss politics or religion, but rather the basis upon which these and other beliefs are standing on. Beliefs are not discussable – exclamation mark. If you are looking for progress within a discussion, it’s a waste of time listening to the wave of thousands of spoken words describing what everybody believes in. To achieve progress and real development the participants need to be ready to talk about the foundation of their thoughts and beliefs. But you’ll find out that only few people are open for that type of conversation and here is why:
First of all, look at people that are doing fine in their lives. Everything is nice and peachy. Nice job, nice car, nice house, going to church once or twice week to receive blessing and confirmation of their beliefs, why would they be ready to put the basis of their beliefs on the line? Then take those that are doing not so fine in their lives. Ok job, ok car, no ok house yet, but working hard for it, maybe doing 2 shifts a day to keep afloat, would they really have time or have the energy to think about the greater things in life even if they basically would be interested in?
Or think about the various groups of people that are basing their lives on what was once written in texts or books of unclear translations and undefined authors. They are never ready to question the validity of these scripts otherwise their whole purpose in life and everything that is built upon would be questioned. So, unless some major changes happen in people’s life, like an accident, sickness or loss of a family member, they won’t drop their attitude, their overall approach to life - if I may say so, and open up for a deep going discussion, generally speaking.
But there is more reason why it is so hard to find people that are open minded and ready for some real base talks. A lot has to do how people have been grown and educated and what has happened to them when they were young. The type of education and treatment they experienced will stick to them often for the rest of their lives. If their young mindset was heavily influenced by emotions, illogic and unresolved experiences, then they will have a hard time as grown ups to kind of undo or redo the programming. So they put a mental shell around it and go on with their lives – go on, but based on what? They don’t really know and can’t explain so they shy away from the discussion of the more important questions in life, such as what their thoughts and beliefs are based on, basically the question what’s inside that shell or what makes up their attitude.

Let’s summarize, why it is so hard to find someone being ready for a real discussion. Here is a short list of people and their attitudes: First, the Do-Not-Disturb people, happy with their current lives and not ready to change a bit, then the Don’t-Have-Time people, always too busy to think about anything, the I-Am-Already-In-A-Group people, that like to follow group rules, no matter what, because they are lacking a foundation themselves, and the Don’t-Know-Don’t-Care kind of people, that prefer to forget and cover up their past, instead of digging deep and finding out.

But there is one more larger group of people expressing an attitude, worth mentioning, and they are very reluctant to open up for some real talk and in this respect today’s winners are: the Know-Everything people. Those who can flood your mind for endless of hours with an unheard knowledge of facts and data in their field of expertise. Since they know everything, within their parameters, they have a difficult time to let go of their status so to speak and to agree to a discussion where they might have to show weakness and vulnerability, and not having the final word. People of a high social ranking often belong to this group, like politicians, priests, professors, TV or radio hosts, company directors, and other people that occupy a leading position in society.

While I am pointing fingers at losely defined groups of people for the purpose of these Daily Thoughts, it is not my intention to exclude them - but rather to make everybody think about the different attitudes that are out there and why they are there in the first place. In order to achieve a fruitfull discussion about the more important things in life, attitudes need to drop. We all know, that everybody is unique, nobody is perfect or knows everything, and we are all born naked, me included. This just for the record. So everybody needs to become aware of his or her attitudes and be ready to let them go, or at least work on it. You’ll find out that this is easier said than done. But once this has taken place the door is open for real development within a discussion.

A true discussion! - about things like the foundation of thoughts and beliefs, education, love and relationship.

May the higher spirit help us evolve.

Post Lectum: Thousands of words and nothing said, like a wave of sound, just awfully bad. Trim and fine tune, till the sound is right, awaken the meaning within the words might.

If you let go of what you think you know, what we are programmed in this society to know, and dig deep within... You will know that everything I say is true.

And to get even more absurd on you... Don't be surprised if Madam Blavatsky is still "alive" in this universe. She was during the time of the Nazi and that is really what happened to them. Kill her with your mind if you find her.

Psychic "powers" were programmed in this sub-universe. Please partake as if your Soul depended on it.

And that, my friends, is the sad state of Reality.

If by some "absurd" way you happen to sense the ones trapping us here, try to capture them with your mind. We we'll trap them here with us. Consciousness is still beyond the total understanding of all the species in the Real Universe. Because we have been given "lifetimes" of experience, we have the upper hand in the Real Universe. This is another reason they are fighting me. They fear those of us who can reach balance and internal strength -breaking free, because by default we are among the best beings in the Real Universe when we "awaken".

Over 20 years of "sleep", a being loses touch with its reality.

I'm trying to get them to program me a windfall so I can wrap it like Mad Anthony Wayne chargin' in on a fine steed. But they want me to fail so they don't have to deal with the consequences of their dark secret. Just like the leaders of this world, never pay for your crimes/guilt. But God was originally programmed into this universe and we'll see if we can get "Him" back online. :)

Most of the ones fighting me on this outside this "universe" are from a species that inhabits an important hierarchical niche in the sad state of Reality that we are prone to escapism from. They invented the tech we did not know enough about. They appeared to be a very "good" species on the outside, but we discovered a dark secret in this tech. Mind Control. They acted as "spiritual leaders" to their species. To expose them is not politically expedient, so they fight me and we all suffer and may die for that political necessity. We did learn, however, that most species are a real piece of work, and even that "dark secret" had it's place at one time for that species.

This universe was created off an Astrological Calender, with a technical ending date of 2012. They are trying to figure a way to transfer you to a new universe, but it's not looking very good.

Think of a huge ball of dark matter with an induced spin creating an inward directional spin. Now imagine a huge cube with a thin multi-property wave plane. The "gravity" universe induced all this, much in the way playing a stringed instrument near another can create a harmonic hum. This is a hummer universe :)

Sorry humans, but I know Reality far better than ya'll.

Everyone in this "universe" is a "dreaming god". Whoever is fighting me on this, inside and outside this universe, could ultimately be responsible for the destruction of your "soul", that is, the Real Body, that you emanate from.
Inner Self/True Self. The proverbial Now of it all.

Welcome to Tetra Hedronic 5, kid.

Very Intelligent Design reality that became a nightmarish hell for it's creator.

If you want to know how MMO this RPG is, it goes beyond human species. Some of you just ain't human, and it shows.

The reason Science "fiction" is so popular is because that the the Real Universe. The reason Magic/Fantasy is so popular is because this is/was a magic sub-universe created by "Raising Strings of Numbers as Separate Realities" as a mage summons an elemental.


The debate on if God exists in the Real Universe rages on. In this universe, God was programmed to exist. It was given a Morality Patch because people were committing suicide and killing others when they left this place. Thus, weather you believe in God or not, you have to bring yourself to emotional and mental balance to escape it.


Dig deep to get "back to the future"

-- the designer.

You are all living in an MMORPG universe kid. You are all addicted to it and have been for 20 years, in Real Universe time. The reasons things don't work quite the way they should here, is this is not a real universe. After 20 years the psychological isolation, created by a tech we didn't know enough about when we built this universe, has led to a loss of the Real Universe. We keep re-spawning (re-incarnating) and have lost touch with Reality.
An entire universe was created and and fast-forwarded. This joint is hooked up in non-linear time.

Gladiator

“Are you not entertained?” screams the Gladiator in the same named film and throws his sword up into the silently watching crowd. “Are you not entertained?” Do you remember that scene? - with the actor Russel Crowe standing in the arena and waiting for applause after his excellent killing performance.

Entertainment. For thousands of years the key to attract the crowd. Basically nothing has changed until today, except that we can now be entertained 24/7/365 using the almight of our technology. Every imaginable place in our living, moving and any other environment provides for sound, images and movies. We are bluetooth-escorted from the moment of wake-up to wake-down with personalized entertainment. And sometimes even when we sleep.

Became the world we live in, the real world, so boring and uninteresting that we seek constant escape in form of entertainment? I asked around a little bit: Why do you want to be entertained? Why do you listen to your I-Pod? And here is what I got back from the youngsters, in random order:

Hey, we got nothing to do. News are boring. School is boring. I gotto see new movies. On Youtube I’m looking for funny & talented videos. I like to watch world-records. So I don’t have to talk to anybody. Time goes by faster. Wow-music & wow-videos are cool. Funny halo3 movies. Michael Jackson. I’m for comics. I like beatboxers and movie trailers.

All this would translate into: Discussion is out. Even News are out. New movies are in. Funny and Kill-the-time is way in! Is this what we can expect from our future generation? A single call for entertainment? Anxiously waiting for funny things to happen?

I have to add that the median age of the group of young people was below 18, probably 16, and it might not be an exact mirror of the overall mindset, but it gives you a hint, at least. However, we can find out in many other ways what people want: like when we take a look at the TV programming:

If we would to take off everything that has to do with entertainment, such as advertisement, action -, comic, game, music, reality & religious shows, movies, home shopping, and soap operas, how much TV time would be left for the real content & issues? I haven’t done the math, but my guestimate would be 5% max. And then we would have to analyze in which way these remaining 5% are presented, would it be based on facts and open for a true discussion – or, like so often, more in a guided form, so that the key questions are left out.

Yes, we have the big News Channels. The only problem is that they ARE big and in the hands of a few who decide what news are newsworthy. But let’s not put the problem away from ourselves. The most important question today is why we seek entertainment more than anything else? Does our perception of time & life itself have something to do with that?

If I were to follow one of the mainstream religions, and it is these religions that define the foundation stone of our society, I would understand that I have to go to church once or twice a week, give them money so that they can prey for me, and unless I miserably fail and are unable to buy me out of my sins, I would go to heaven after I die. That sounds pretty good – doesn’t it? As long as I am part of a religion I am taken care of and don’t need to waste my time for useless self-improvement or spiritual development stuff. So now I can enjoy the little time I have in this life to the fullest and I want to do so by just having fun.

Adding to this, allow me to go back to my sessions no. 7 & 16, where I said:
If life is a one-time event, there is a tendency to think I wanna grab as much as I can, before I am running out of it, and I don’t care what comes thereafter. However, if we look at the possibility of being reborn in another life, then one of sudden the aspect of time and life changes and time-less words like accomplishment, growth, and learning, replace those full-time ones such as money, power and status.

So maybe we should be thankful for the openness of our youngsters telling us frankly what they think. They are nothing but holding up the mirror reflecting what world they have been put in by us.

May the higher spirit help us evolve.

MPC vs Future Lives

You might find it strange how I mix up the idea of rebirth in real life with the online game set-up of resurrect. I would figure the objections would come mostly from the point of view that the game world, has absolutely nothing to do with the real world.

Many years ago, the movie Matrix, has approached this subject by asking: what is real, how do you define real? Can you define real, do you know what real really is? Type the keyword MMORPG in Wikipedia and read about the corrupted blood issue. A governmental agency used the online game system WoW for analysis how a virus, the in-game virus corrupted blood, had spread. This tells you how close to a real world these games are.

For the brain itself it does not matter where the signals are coming from. Light from the computer screen or light from the real world – it’s almost identical in terms of information for the brain to process. In both cases light enters the eyes and are forwarded in form of nerve impulses to the brain. For example, looking at a sunset situation in either world, creates similar feelings and emotions in us. In the real world, you have the smell and touch of the wind and you hear the real world sounds. However technology is advancing and will make this happen too in the near future.

But let’s continue and see what effect on our society it would have if we could be reborn in real life.

The subject of rebirth has been debated for a few thousand years. It is a very old point of discussion. But as of lately, you don’t see or hear much about it any more. Sure there are interest groups talking about it, books have been and are written, but mainstream wise, the media don’t seem to be interested in that. I guess I was lucky, when I recently stumpled over a foreign TV report about it. The story was about a child, who talked often, as soon as he could talk, to his mom about his other mom, other house, and dog and gave even the name of the city where he had supposedly lived. It was first a local story, then spread around a lil bit, until with the help of a scientist, the boy’s story could be verified for being correct.

Two things happened during that TV show that I found worth memorizing. For one, the TV had taped the moment when the boy was put in front of the house that had been found according to his descriptions. Once he had looked at his old house, the house where he had lived in his former life, his eyes stared into a far distance, his face turned sad and melancholic, and - according to the TV report -, he never talked about it again. What could that expression mean? To us? For us? I wish you could have seen it for yourself.

The next thing that I expected after that report, was a discussion about it by different scientists and experts. However, after the obligatory publicity break, the station aired a TV report about a guy with extraordinary body flexibility skills. This was a total disappointment. Why would the media do that? There was so much to talk about the past life issue and instead this accrobatic show? This is a situation that basically begged for an explanation. So let’s dig deep here and find out the likelihood why they, the TV show producers, did decide that way.

Could it be because of MPC, of money, power and control? What could possibly be with the past life issue that the MPC group doesn’t want? The most important value for a media company is, to no-ones’ surprise: Shareholder Value. The money flows in from TV ads or subscriptions and only don’t worry-be-happy, need-to-know and have-to-have customers buy and pay.

Obviously, THE way to go for the media company: Keep the crowd interested and happy. According to that target, reporters, dig up anything newsworthy, anything that might interest the spectators. Then, in order to keep the customer happy, the story, report or show ends with one of the following: no follow up, like in the above case, or a guided follow up, where basically no adverse opinion is allowed, or a fake follow-up like most often, where they put 3 or 4 different thinking people on the podium that throw words at each other for 10-15 minutes. The discussion will not move forward one bit and the conclusion is left wide open. Basically maintaining status quo.

The media found, oh-so-subtle ways, to keep us entertained all the time. No blank is left to create a thought. They don’t want us to think, they want to think for us, have our eyes and ears wide open, so they can catch us off guard with our firewalls down, for their advertisement or paid-for expert opinion. Everything is made into a show, heavily arguing, screaming, body language, Jerry-Springer style, all that to keep the action going, so there is no time to reflect about anything.

So the compelling past life report about the child had his tail cut-off by the ridiculous acrobatic show that followed. My conclusion is: the media don’t want us to think, and certainly not think about past and future life. Here is my opinion and it builds on what I said in the conclusion of session no. 7, where I quoted:

If life is a one time event, there is a tendancy to think I wanna grab as much as I can, before I am running out of it, and I don’t care what comes thereafter. However, if we look at the possibility of being reborn in another life, then one of sudden the aspect of time and life changes and time-less words like accomplishment, growth, and learning, replace those full-time ones such as money, power and status.

The western world is built on a so-called christian foundation, which makes us follow their own rules and regulations to get a place in heaven. This system also tells us that you only have a one-time chance, a one time-life during which you can accomplish that. Here is some food for thought: Fact is, that we don’t know what the true words of Jesus Christ have been. Books about him have been written only sixty years or so after his death! How credible would a book be if someone started today writing about the second world war - only from what the war heroes could tell from memory. And then have that book translated, re-translated, interpreted and modified by I don’t know how many authors for how many centuries. But taken the case, we actually had been able to record his words, they would still be in a language that we don’t speak and that we don’t think. So even then we would not be 100% sure what the message was, he wanted to give us, and I strongly believe he wanted to pass along something important, like how to see life.

Make a google search about Jesus and past life. Apparently, the early books that came out, described that Jesus believed in past-life and rebirth. Did he gave his life for a good cause because he believed in re-birth, or in other words re-surrection? One wonders why these teachings can’t be found any more in more modern bibles. Maybe those in power and control removed them from the early bibles, because a crowd that believes in future lives is much harder to contain then one that is afraid of losing the only life they have.

Fear, this is the key word of power. We have seen it in the recent Iraq war, where the words threat and terrorists dominated the discussions, and we have seen it in every other dictatorship in the past. But it’s not only fear of losing one’s life, no, in the christian world there is much more to fear, like the eternal imprisonment in hell, never being able to learn, improve and evolve, never being able to reach the heavenly realm. Where in this scenario is the love, the compassion, the readiness to forgive? Where is the true Jesus?

May the higher spirit help us evolve.

MMORPG vs MPFSC: Daily Thoughts No. 15

http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x9woan_dt015-mmorpg-vs-mpsfc-daily-thought_people

It is fascinating how much dedication and personal effort online players can come up with. 24 hours a day online just don’t seem enough to get everything done. No longer is it only reserved for the young ones, no way, one can find MMORPG enthusiasts from almost every age group and social level left- and right clicking the mouse.

MMORPG – Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games are they called. Wow, the top one has well above 10 million accounts. This truly is amazing. And once you are hooked, you leave console games in the drawer, turn TV and radio off, and focus on your hi-res computer screen to level up your online character as quickly as you can.

This raises a lot of questions, beginning with the one why we get hooked?

If you haven’t tried any of these games yet, you might want to skip to the end of this writing, because you need to have it played for a few weeks before you can fully understand how it works and why you can’t get enough of it. Well, one partial answer is quickly served. You can’t get enough of it for obvious reasons, because the developers build it the way that there is no top, no maximum, no end. What in WoW was lvl 50, as highest level you can reach a few years back, now is lvl 80 and I’m not sure if they will actually stop at lvl 100, what was probably the initial end-point target of that game.

But I think there is more than just the carrot stick approach to that question. Put yourself in the position of a child with muscular dystrophy for instance. Imagine, you can not walk or run and have to be sitting in the wheelchair from am to pm. This game is like a gift from heaven. Almosty everything this human being cannot do IRL, that means in real life, he or she is able to perform online: Running, jumping, fighting, riding, flying, cooking, fishing, dancing and many more bodily actions. But it doesn’t stop here. Via his online character, this person can do quests, make friends, learn professions and even earn achievements. Although physically to more than 80% disabled, the handicapped person can live a normal online life.

Yes, it’s nothing more than bits and bytes some will say. However, these images are from within a 3D world and are very similar to real world ones. Give it a few more years of development in technology and our brain will have a hard time in telling which world is the real one. Living in either world, for the brain apparently doesn’t matter so much. At the end, the physically impaired person can live a much happier life – real life that is, since his online activities and achievements are comparable to online ones of normal persons.

But back to our question why are we so easily hooked by these 3D online games?
We have the carrot stick for one, then the online world experience for physically handicapped for two, but what makes a normal person seek that artificial world so much?

It would be interesting to hear what the head developers of these games have to say. They were certainly surprised by the initial uber-take-off of their software. Was all that planned for? I wouldn’t not be astonished if it wasn’t. My guess is, that with the initial success came the analysis and based on that data development towards what people are looking for. WoW, in one of the recent upgrades introduced at lot of statistics, along with the display of the many achievements that can be earned. Achievements, hmmm, is that the key? Achievements cause satisfaction. Do we like being part of a computer created world because we, like the physically handicapped, can get achievements that we cannot get or cannot get any more in real life?

When things were bad in the old world, hundreds of years ago, people fled that world in the hope of finding or conquering a better one elsewhere. Does our MPSFC world, Money, Power, Status, Fame and Control that is, invoke the same feelings in us, that make us flee our actual world for one that is, hopefully different and better, where we can start all over and achieve what we are looking for? The only problem nowadays is, that earth is round, and has run out of conquerable space. So now we conquer, whatever space we find - even if it is harddisk space.

Apparently, we have an internal drive to achieve things, want to reach goals? Any goals or specific goals? Goals that we set or are set for us?

Not easy to answer, but isn’t it strange that the pure fact of not having reached the higher online character’s level makes us play overtime until we have completed it? And then, when we are at that higher level, do we appreciate being there? For a little while and then we get bored and want to reach the next level. The situation in real life is more or less the same. The road towards a goal, any goal, material or not, is the interesting one. Having reached it, after a while, makes us want more. Always more, always more of MPSFC.

Are there any goals at all where we would stay satisfied all the time, once we have reached them? MPSFC goals certainly not, even World records would make us happy only as long as they are not broken, - but there must be some or at least one that would put us in a state of never ending satisfaction?

Having found the right partner and brought children into this world and having raised them in a better way oneself has been raised, would be an all time satisfaction, at least for me. Or, having learned something from life, so I don’t make the same mistake in this or maybe the next life, would be another achievement of the eternal kind, but again I can only speak for me. Is there any other achievement that could guarantee us satisfaction forever? Maybe one more, what we like to see in movies, when someone sacrifices his or her life for a better cause. However, it would need to be seen, if the satisfaction could be shared by the sacrificed one.

It boils down, as a conclusion, that achievements of the spiritual kind, are those which cannot be taken away from us and provide for long-, maybe ever lasting satisfaction.

For today I thank you for your time.
May the higher spirit help us evolve.

Until the next Daily Thoughts

Post Scriptum:
Why was the title called: MMORPG vs MPSFC?
How do these two realms differ from each other? Except, that everybody in WoW can get rich and to a level of 80? If you want to find out what the real difference is, why these games are so successful, you only need to picture how these games would be if your online character could live only once.
