Where did all the Open Minds Forum members go?

Fri Oct 19, 2012 12:29 pm by Admin

With Open Minds Forum restored now for almost half a year at it's new location with forumotion.com we can now turn to look at reaching out to OMF's original members who have not yet returned home. OMF's original membership was over 6,000 members strong, prior to the proboards suspension, according to the rolls of the time. We can probably safely assume that some of those accounts were unidentified socks. If we were to assume a reasonable guess of maybe as many as 30% possible sock accounts then that would leave potentially somewhere between 4800 to 4900 possible real members to locate. That is still a substantial number of people.

Who were all these people? Some were average individuals with common interests in ufology, exopolitics, globalism, corruption, earthchanges, science and technology, and a variety of other interests. Some just enjoyed being part of a vibrant and unusually interesting community. Others were representative of various insider groups participating in observation and outreach projects, while still others were bonafide intelligence community personnel. All with stake in the hunt for truth in one fashion or another. Some in support of truth, and communication. Others seeking real disclosure and forms of proof. And others highly skeptical of anything or limited subjects. The smallest division of membership being wholly anti-disclosure oriented.

So where did these members vanish to? They had many options. There are almost innumerable other forums out there on the topics of UFO's or Exopolitics, the Unexplained, and Conspiracy Theory. Did they disappear into the world-wide network of forum inhabitants? Did some go find new homes on chatrooms or individual blogs? Did they participate in ufo conventions or other public events and gatherings? How about those who represented groups in special access? Or IC and military observers? Those with academic affiliations? Where did they all go and what would be the best way to reach out and extend an invitation to return?

And what constitutes a situation deserving of their time and participation? Is the archive enough? How exactly do people within the paradigm most desire to define a community? Is it amenities, humanity or simply population size for exposure? Most of the special guests have been emailed and have expressed that population size for exposure is what most motivates them. But not all. Long-time member Dan Smith has other priorities and values motivating his participation. Should this open opportunities for unattached junior guests who have experience and dialog to contribute to the world? How best to make use of OMF's time, experience and resources?

Many skeptics would like to see the historical guardian of discourse opportunity to just up and disappear; go into permanent stasis. They think that not everyone has a right to speak about their experiences and if there is no proof involved then there can philosophically be no value to discourse. I personally would respectfully disagree with them. Discourse has always been the prelude to meaningful relationships and meaningful mutual relationships have always been the prelude to exchanges of proof. In a contentious social environment with regards to communication vs disclosure how do we best re-establish a haven for those preludes? Is it only the "if we build it they will come" answer? Well considering OMF has been largely fully functional over the last four or five months this line of reasoning is not necessarily true. So what would be the best way re-establish this? Your suggestions are sought. Please comment.

    wk,

    Find us a non mystic, non literalist who extols love.

    Aaron appears to be threatened by the mere thought of rationalism.

    We might suppose that Aaron is paranoid with regard to thought.

    Every thought is an enemy.

    Dan,

    If the creator wastes nothing and there are no coincidences, then just a 'thought' perhaps my opinion, but why would be given thought'?

    “Utterly awake, senses wide open.
    Utterly open, nonfixating awareness.

    Love is a switch of focus from point to pointless open attention

    Those with points can’t as hard as they try understand not having one

    Love is the way

    They can’t know love

    That’s a load of shit

    Love is awareness

    It’s not a feeling

    It has no name even

    The audacity to name awareness and say you understand it and offer it to anyone else

    Utter delusion“ -a smelly goat

    ——————————-

    Very open stream smelly

    Fun to watch it flowing through

    It’s like watching someone take a shit who has been eating lots of veggies and fiber

    Nice flow!

    Focused words appear spontaneously from the unfocused background of awareness

    When we are open we let what comes come freely

    Then as freely as we let the words appear we let them go

    We hold on to nothing

    Muppets want something to hold onto, afraid of freedom...afraid of death

    When the Separate ‘I’ disappears, what is always flowing suddenly and instantly becomes effortless and utterly free

    What points could ever be made about it?

    What is simply is, simple and free

    It is very funny to see appearances trying to make points about what is when there are none

    When the universe has no points to make about anything, playfulness and freedom is all that can be left

    Free, playful, and pointless

    These words I post are a Koan and a joke

    Do you get the joke?

    You couldn’t if you tried to

    There is nothing to get

    Get it?

    Bwahahahaha

    It’s hilarious

    It’s peaceful

    Just relax, sit back, and enjoy the ride

    And if you run across any appearances trying to make silly points while floating down the river, you are free to ignore them or blow a fart their way just for fun.

    Aaron,

    We’re not quite there yet.

    The unlearning of scientific materialism will, perforce, be a studied unlearning...... not the studied neglect that you hold out to us.

    Reality is a social enterprise. It is not to be written off by individual fiat.

    I write nothing off

    We are free to unlearn as we feel to and need to

    We take all the steps needed until no steps are left

    All are free to peck at the ground as they feel to

    It’s all part of this magnificent show

    Dan,

    Yes, I was thinking more of 'thought' as 'why would we have an attribute?' were it not to provide us with something we can use in our present environment or state of being.

    Like a baby crawls until such time as nature and knowledge enables the baby to walk. An adult can still crawl but may choose with understanding to walk or run.


    I guess I better go read the Tao..

    CS,

    I case you missed it, Dan was referring to what he was assuming my position was regarding thoughts when he said “every thought is an enemy”.

    From what Dan has said I think it is clear this is not his position.

    He is wrong in assuming it is mine, It is not

    There is nothing wrong with thinking

    Thinking is necessary

    Logos is like a chrysalis or like garden manure perhaps

    It’s nonsense to me.

    Glad you have some sense left CS.

    Maybe you can buy a cup of coffee.

    Thought is not good or evil at all, it simply isn’t your master or has any answers.

    You can then play with thought.

    All its questions and problems are meaningless, just to keep its story of ME going.  

    With a clear mind, free of burden, what problems do you have?

    What questions?

    Muppets have no idea how trapped by thought they are.

    We were just teasing egos here on OMF.

    They are so easy to tease.

    They aren’t laughing, which is a sign they are confused Wink

    There is nothing to do or not do or read or not read.

    There is a stepping back through acceptance of what is as it is.

    A realization is possible if you inquire into your own mind, who are you?

    No more teachers
    No more books

    Dan is confused about just about everything he says.

    It’s fucking hilarious and great fun.

    He is the butt of the cosmic joke.

    A great punch line.

    The ultimate Mooooooooooron.

    You have to be the moron too, some nerver stop though.

    We call these NPCs, non player characters, like in a game.

    They are furniture to poop and sit on.

    They get more and more agitated as they are led by thought, through emotion.

    If they see their folly, they can realize instantly, which is part of the reason for thought, just a mirror of what is.

    But most UFO muppets have the same mental delusion as flat earthera I have observed.

    Words will never sway them, so I naturally obfuscate their logos.

    I use words as a net.

    You can’t argue with them and they are easily agitated if you show them they are confused.

    It’s another religion is all.

    They act religiously about their feelings and facts and beliefs.

    Oh my confused UFO muppets, how sweet, like dumb little furballs you roll around.

    Our realization is for ourselves, not anyone else, and only to allow us to move with an open and receptive mind it appears.

    I don’t know, I experience what isn’t through what is.

    The treasure is not a collection of facts or words or books, it’s your awareness of all of it.

    It’s acausal and amoral, no one knows why things happen.

    Muppets revert to previous base programming under stress, we mostly need reprogramming to remove the limits placed on us by culture and monkey mind thought.

    It’s hard work and there are lots of ways to be befooled.

    But we are creating this world, no force to blame or beg for help.

    Accept responsibility for it your self from awareness.

    Love the moron muppet as your self by sharig what comes to you.

    This is mostly a futile effort.

    They can take it or leave it, who cares, if they fight, all the better.

    You want to follow Dan into oblivion?

    That old theist/deist needing answers outside himself?

    He is the roadblock here Wink

    But you can blow right through any obstacles.

    Don’t follow anyone or thing.

    But continue in your folly until you realise this or don’t Wink

    I’m just smelly goat who doesn’t lie.

    It’s much more fun to just be what is.

    Egos lie and fear and think and make phantoms.

    If that’s all you are in your mind, then that’s awesome.

    Funny, we can choose ignorance of the one thing that helps us relax.

    Arguing relaxes me too though, because I know the muppet on the other end is always an abstraction of what is, the more chaos, the better.

    Hilarious fun up above the world so high...like a diamond in the sky Wink

    Fuck all the words for what is.

    Just be ok with what is happening and no problem.

    My words move in circles and I have said nothing again.

    I’m not sharing my problems, I’m sharing how much fun they are to play with.

    The more ignorance, the better I say, there is no need for realization.

    It’s just what happened.

    I don’t know how or why.

    As if I came to OMF for some stilly ego attention.

    It was and will always be my little joke.

    Now we need a flaming Cheeto or cheese meteor to head this way.

    How awesome if the Earth was destroyed by a big ball of yarn?!

    When I write, I am simply stacking stones.

    You can make word art and sculptures.

    Smelly is my surrealistic creation.

    The joke is how could a goat talk about enlightenments Wink

    Goats can’t talk sillies.

    Dan is too smart to be ok with not understanding this dumb goat’s rock sculptures.

    He will never understand or reconcile the smelly goat.

    I will haunt him the rest of his days on Earth and I take great satisfaction in that.

    He can’t beat an appearance.

    Yes, logos is also like a toy to play with.

    Chrysalis does sound like very serious business.

    It’s serious until it isn’t.

    If one takes themselves to be a serious thing that is their game

    Jokes on them

    There is no such thing as luck

    When we are open and free to let the flow of words come and go as they will then everything works out as it should effortlessly

    This is not “good luck you’re on your own”, this is trust and openness and active emptiness

    Riding the waves of wu wei, the universe does nothing and accomplishes everything

    If doing not-doing helps another muppet relax and find more peace and playfulness then that’s great, if not....shrug

    Just have an adventure.

    We don’t have to overthink this.

    I have made a careful observation of my mind and thoughts.

    There is no mystical or objective cause for what is to be found.

    That was the real discovery.

    I bought the story of ME hook line and sinker, like all of us do.

    I poured all my focus into the image of ME and the world.

    This is natural.

    But I also fell backwards imto the sky by no will of mine, I just had a question I wouldn’t stop asking.

    I pierced all answers and saw them inside out.

    In the sky, thought feels alien, we fly in the sky, with no thought.

    Thinking feels redundantly confusing and recursive.

    I have proven it to myself and I trust in all of it, things take care of themselves.

    This guy could never have thought his way up the mountain.

    He just went for it spontaneously after clearing his head of the distracting thoughts.

    If you want to know who you are, really, and you are not an asshole manipulating people for your own gain, you will find no answers, but somehow, that will be enough.

    Only assholes, dummies and liars have answers.

    Fuck em Wink

    The only way you will ever accept this is if you climb that big wall in front of you, all the way to the top, knowing your a dead muppet, if you slip.

    At the top, you see you were the same in the valley and at the top, you are both, and your life plays out in between these.

    But having seen through your fear, you relax, I mean reallly relax, it’s wonderful.

    But not until you risk your life for it Wink

    No pretenders at the top.

    There was never anyone in the valley, climbing or making it to the top, there just is what is and that’s enough.

    Sometimes, especially of late, I feel more 'flow' than others like the night a few days back I listened to a couple of wu wei audios and clicked back to find Zen Muppet Aaron had just posted on the same.

    I am truly glad that I came to OM and grateful for the ongoing experience..Smile

    At the end of the day all roads lead home. Oh, but then we kind of are.

    I suppose then it's about building sandcastles on the beach, listening to the wind in the trees and as Bruce Lipton says 'knowing what chocolate ice cream tastes like.'


    Alex Honnold definitely doesn't overthink it!

    Dan: The unlearning of scientific materialism will, perforce, be a studied unlearning...... not the studied neglect that you hold out to us. Reality is a social enterprise. It is not to be written off by individual fiat.

    Overthinking monkeys........

    Hey, that’s us.

    smelly is afraid to own it, or else, he’s afraid that we’re afraid.  

    Are we afraid that donny won’t get releelected?  

    Not foot....... no siree......

    Princess thinks that foot and I are trying to push her into the spotlight.  

    Well, she was right....... until we figure out Brazil.... which is mostly figured out....... you know us thinking monkeys...... do we really need a shock?  

    The only question........ spot, spot, who wants the spotlight?  

    Obviously, donny doesn’t mind the spot.  

    The only question is about his partner in crime.

    Melania...... clearly not.  

    Ivanka........ maybe, but maybe not this spot.  

    That leaves only one person, and it’s not rocket science.  

    Kashmir.  

    Tell me that the Princess and I are wrong.  

    The next question is about RICO.........

    Should portals come under the RICO Act?

    Well, guess what, they already are.  

    How so.......?

    Where does monism meet personalism?  

    chicken little has this to say about that.........

    Where does the cookie crumble.......?  

    That’s what they say about scientific materialism....... one prick and it’s all gone.  

    Button, button........

    Yes, I’m just little bit jealous about this stuff.......

    I’ve always said that I’m not going to roll over and play dead.  

    But, by the same token, I am a pushover for Lais and Kashmir.  

    My suggestion to Lais........ keep an eye on those cheetahs......

    One way to avoid the spotlight is to be able to move at the speed of light.  

    That is mostly what’s happening.  

    And, sports fans, that may be what faith is all about.  

    With the logos, it is increasingly difficult to distinguish between faith and logic.  We are caught in the middle...... us thinking monkeys.

    May the Shock take the hindmost.......

    Like every monkey, I fear the pain of my death.

    We have pain coming into life, pain enduring it, pain leaving it.

    We all know pain well.

    Maybe we only fear pain.

    Language is designed to hide emotions, to hide our fear.

    Fear has driven us all insane.

    But we can be relaxed crazy monkeys.

    Our natural state is one of slack and leisure and relaxation.

    I wonder why everyone is so driven to know and do things with their coming oblivion.

    The message I hear is clear.

    Relaaaaaaaaaxxxxxxx

    Maybe they are afraid.

    When one is relaxed, there is no fear.

    If a lion comes, yuh can stay relaxed, just move away it.

    This is doing not doing.

    You move from an open relaxed mind.

    You can argue all you like, you can always react the best way in this state.

    When you relax, all the seeking relaxes too, all the words fade away.

    I don’t remember what all the fuss was about.

    Oh yah, I was looking for a meaning to my life, this is it!

    Life is funny how it moves through us.

    It tickles.
