Why are we here?

We are talking ‘mind only’.  

This would be mainstream Buddhism .  

This is radical monism.

Virtual Tasseography Agenda

Date: TBD
Time: TBD
Location: Google Meet [Link]

Topic Item 1:
List topic suggestion(s)
Mother of All Paradigm Shifts (MoAPS)

Key Points
My understanding is that, very likely, we are on the verge of a paradigm shift.
This will not be your run of the mill paradigm shift.
The term "paradigm shift" itself was popularized by the philosopher and historian of science, Thomas Kuhn.

Topic Item 2:

Key Points
List key points pertaining to topic suggestion(s)


Additional Notes
My further understanding is the MoAPS will be taking place in an eschatological context.

In fact, the MoAPS may be one of the triggers of the Eschaton.  

So the Eschaton is then the second agenda item.

The Eschaton needs to be defined……..

Traditionally it’s defined as the end of the world.  

Then we have to define world…….

In modern parlance, the world is everything, or is simply reality…… it is the universe, or, even, the Multiverse…… astronomically speaking.  

However, in accordance with the MoAPS, there will be a shift from materialism to immaterialism.  

Immaterialism is commonly understood as tantamount to idealism.  

Instead of atoms, the world is composed of ideas.

Atoms are objects……. ideas are not.  

As far as we know, ideas are had only by persons…….. well, persons are the only ones able to demonstrate their possession of ideas.

Until it can be demonstrated to the contrary, idealism is tantamount to personalism.  

(cont………)

Mind the gap………. There is a gap between sentience and sapience…… quite easily the biggest gap in our understanding of Nature…… at least as big as the gap between life and non-life.
……….


Of course, I’m setting aside the mind-brain gap.

Scientists do their best to ignore and filibuster these gaps.

But the main point of the BPWH/SWH is that we don’t have all the time in the world……. or, rather, that’s all the time we have!!

No more dilly-dallying.
…………


Now we come to a sensitive point……

Let’s suppose there exists someone who has the ability to open one or more portals.

And/or suppose we wish to make an addendum to Hypnotta.

We wish to choreograph the opening of the portals.

I think we might need a skull session…… in this regard.

As a matter of fact, that may be the main reason we’re here.

We are gaming the opening.

Isn’t it nice to just play pretend?

Hey, this is how God amuses herself, with her imaginary playmates.

This is actually the one and only agenda item for the Tasseography Group, in my humble estimation.

Hey, let’s not everyone speak at once.

I hope that xxxx will show us how to take turns.

The baseline here is that the 10^5 portals will open for five days, and then the Sun will go out.

I have suggested some additions to the baseline.

This is where everyone is expected to chime in.

Topic Item 2:
Sarah has suggested a takeoff from Tomorrowland….. the 2015 movie with Clooney, etc.  
Tomorrow land is an alternate world or dimension.

Is that you, Sarah?

I’m here Dan. I will elaborate on the Tomorrowland topic!
The movie was not successful…….

(per commercial terms, however the idea has been expertly
seeded by Disney both before and after the film. For example, Disney has an entire Tomorrowland attraction which pre and post-dated the film. They all form feedback loops.)

I see you, Sarah….. Go ahead…….

Zeitgeist: a German term that translates to "spirit of the age" or "spirit of the times"
In the movie, there is a key analogy that represents the spirit of the times, or zeitgeist.
The wolf analogy is presented in a scene where a character named Frank Walker, played by George Clooney, explains to Casey Newton, played by Britt Robertson, about the impact of negative and dystopian narratives on society. Frank uses the analogy of two wolves to convey this idea.
He describes a Native American grandfather talking to his grandson about two wolves fighting within everyone. One wolf represents darkness, fear, and despair, while the other represents light, hope, and positivity. The grandson asks, "Which wolf wins?" The grandfather replies, "The one you feed."
In the context of the film and its exploration of the zeitgeist, this analogy is used to highlight the power of narratives in shaping collective consciousness. The wolves symbolize the opposing forces of positive and negative thinking, and the idea is that the narrative people choose to focus on and propagate will influence the overall mindset and collective consciousness of society.
Ultimately, if a society collectively focuses on negative, dystopian narratives, it may contribute to a pessimistic zeitgeist, shaping how people perceive the world and influencing their actions - which is consistently demonstrated in the film.


So, I’m pretty much a one trick pony.

There is not much point of discussion, if we don’t have a context.

A logical starting context is that our world is the only world and/or the best possible world. In other words, God puts all her eggs in one basket, and then watches the basket very closely.

Most of the present faults come from our ignorance and confusion about the nature of reality.  

With Tomorrow land, Disney was attempting to create a platform or a vehicle for a Tasseography group, like ours.  

So he was basically going to create a whole new world.  

Our challenge is a bit more realistic…… well, we are starting in the middle….. the end of the middle.

This is where we become aware of our context, and we are gradually waking up to the new possibilities.

Our world is the post-Disclosure world.  

Our job is to integrate ourselves into the BPW, by making optimal use of newly discovered portals.  

Everything before today was under the rubric of the (best possible) Katechon (Restrainer).  

We’re supposing that Portals are now available to us.

Yes, there could be a Gaza portal and a Jerusalem portal……

….. a Moscow portal and a Kyiv portal.  

40 gmt/z 12/15 dts

What hasn’t been taken into account is Pratityasamutpada, or co-dependent arising  ….. also with the Logos Spermatikos or seminal word.


12/15

So, I don’t think there is any other place for a Tasseography group to begin.  

This is supposed to be the Tasseography group to end all tasseography groups.

But, hey, go ahead and prove me wrong.  

I dare you!  Take the high ground  ………



12/14/2023.  10 pm est. dts.  

So, anyone is welcome to seize the high ground.

We need to have a starting point.

Traditionally, the starting point is  ….. why is there something, rather than nothing?  

But, with the advent of the Quantum  ………

No phenomenon is a real phenomenon, unless it is an observed phenomenon.  
  — J A Wheeler.

So, what is our minimal observer?  

I humbly submit that our minimal observer must be a pair of communicating/sapient Beings  ….. (or one schizophrenic Being.) …….

I’m thinking about a proposed (physical) meeting on Sunday, that would include two of us, plus foot 🦶.

foot has insisted that I include Sam Hopkins.

I don’t know why this insistence.

However, I’m prepared to take full advantage of the situation ….  as being a first step towards Disclosure  ….. with Sam representing an informed but totally naive public.  

I will suggest my heading down to xx, today, to discuss the situation with three.

Was this Sunday meeting, per unlikely, just intended to be a social occasion?  

If not, what are the parameters?

Need there be any limits to our discussion of Disclosure  ….. with Sam playing the role of guinea pig?

Will foot be attempting to sidetrack any such discussion  ….. or will he be cooperative?

OPINION
ROSS DOUTHAT
It’s Time for U.F.O. Whistle-blowers to Show Their Cards

……… There is no better time, in other words, for anyone who has documentary proof to figure out how to be a hero of disclosure and democracy. If you have the goods and you want the public to know more, and if you think the Schumer push for transparency has been fatally wounded (as many U.F.O. believers seem to think), then this is the hour to bring your secrets forward.
