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.

    First topic message reminder :

    To get to Notes from the Underground you have to go by way of Fathers and Sons and What to Do.  That will take you back to the mid eighteen hundreds....... it’s been a trip, and we’re almost done.

    We’re still left with the question of what to do....... modulo communism and existentialism.  

    In a pre Millennial frame, I’d been advocating (a portal-centric) communalism for the duration of the Millennium.  

    In post Millennialism, ie. modulo the Millennium, we have to readdress the question of what to do, ie. come up with an action item for the Princess.

    Nothing mystical about this either.

    For me, awareness brings lightness and fun and lots of laughing.

    Look at the great conspiracy to rob you of your connection to awareness, which is impossible.

    It all falls apart if you blow on the house of cards with awareness.

    Thoughts and feelings still come, but they are informed by awareness, not fear anxiety or idol worship.

    If one is wise, they will seek freedom from the lie of separation.

    Until one begins that journey they can’t be reasoned with.

    I wish you many laughs and heart felt tears.

    Are we getting the impression that Ukraine is the communal watering hole?  It kinda looks like that.  

    Be careful what you’re wishing for, when you go to the water hole, Rudy.  Does Rudy have information Tinkerbell?  

    We might want to ask the Princess.  

    Ack reminds us.......
    Go out, and stand on the mountain before the Lord.  And behold, the Lord passed by, and a great and strong wind tore into the mountains and broke the rocks in pieces before the Lord, but the Lord was not in the wind; and after the wind an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake; and after the earthquake a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire; and after the fire a still small voice.

    And we just have to have a mustard seed of faith....... it’ll all come out in the wash, sports fans.

    I guess what we’re saying is that the fictions on Ukraine are only pseudo fictions.  There’s a whole other side to the shootout at the ok watering hole.  

    Speaking of the devil, has anybody seen Tinkerbell?  

    Dollars to doughnuts, I’ll betcha that the Princess has a lock on the turtles in the Crimea.......

    Let me post something while my mind is crystal clear.

    This video that I always thought meant something doesn't actually mean anything.



    Go all the way?
    What does that even mean?

    Bahahahaha!

    Don't go anywhere!

    Stay here!

    One last piece advice to the world before my untimely departure!

    Never be the first at anything!

    You aren’t quite there.

    Stop aiming.

    He means go all the way...knowing yourself.

    Bukowski is a true Dude.

    If you are, you can understand him.

    Just pull the bow back when you feel to from awareness.

    Release when you feel to.

    Bullseye every time.

    No aiming required.

    Practice practice practice.

    You’ll be ok from here, if you stay in your slack.

    Don’t listen to anyone else but your self once you understand Bukowski.

    Now is time for you to speak for and from your self.

    Speak what you learn.

    Live it and demonstrate your relaxed flow.

    It isn’t just for Ack.

    We are part of all of it.

    I have no creed or tribe.

    Those are evil idols.

    Really, best to you who seeks to know thyself.

    You have chosen to do the best thing you can in this life.

    To the rest, enjoy your idols of self, maybe go back to your source one day when you feel the call to knowing and not knowing, this is the quantum heart.

    Living is dreaming with your eyes and heart open.

    Show yourself.

    They will turn their eyes from your knowing and unknowing.

    They can never understand until they have gone indeterminate.

    Life will always be a conflict to them.

    Because they do not know themselves not know themselves.

    Poor muppets.

    They just have to click their heels and smile like they mean it.

    Laugh at them.

    Fart on them.

    Don’t pity them.

    They are evil basically and can’t know it.

    Watch out for them.

    They are nasty when cornered.

    Best thing you can show them is your smelly ass.

    Smelly is right, of course.

    You can't aim for nowhere because it's everywhere.

    You can't aim for nothing because it's everything.

    You can't aim for no one, because he/she is everyone.

    You can't aim for not aiming, because that would be aiming.

    So what is one to do?

    Just be true to your self and learn to relax and abide.

    That's all of it.

    The dark knight and the joker are really best friends.

    Dan hasn't met himself yet.

    Or has he?

    Don't know.

    "When you enlarge your mind and let go of it,

    When you relax your [qi 氣] vital breath and expand it,
    When your body is calm and unmoving:
    And you can maintain the One and discard the myriad disturbances.
    You will see profit and not be enticed by it,
    You will see harm and not be frightened by it.
    Relaxed and unwound, yet acutely sensitive,
    In solitude you delight in your own person.
    This is called "revolving the vital breath":
    Your thoughts and deeds seem heavenly."

    Continue in practice of the way young grasshopper!

    Go all the way really just means go all the wu wei, straight on to perfect laughter.

    The only thing that beats death is the Sacred Clown, riding life all the way to perfect laughter.

    Then the darkness and the clown merge here as your true self, relaxed and focused, knowing the way.

    You are the killing joke.

    If you don’t know this yet, go look.

    When you understand you will know what it means to live a slack life, unconcerned and full of life!

    This is the only good fight worth fighting.

    Open and honest with your self.

    No hiding, no running.

    Just here as this....abiding dude.

    Carry on.

    Cy, not for the first time, raises the issue of population reduction.  

    She does this with good reason.  Population reduction is certainly an issue that is central to any form of eschatology.  

    The apocryphal four horsemen of the Apocalypse focus our attention on this issue.......
    According to the main modern interpretation, this prophecy describes a period of time when a quarter of the population of the earth would be killed by a combination of wars, famine and disease.

    As if this were not enough.......
    Seven angels are given seven bowls of God's wrath, each consisting of judgements full of the wrath of God. These seven bowls of God's wrath are poured out on the wicked and the followers of the Antichrist
    It seems that God’s wrath knows no bounds.  

    Does Cy wish to question God’s plan?  Well, maybe she came to the right place.  I, too, wish to take issue with God.  

    I also wish to take issue with foot.  Cy and I would be in agreement here, as well.  

    Let’s just suppose that foot sees himself as a Vector of God’s wrath.  

    Yes, Cy, I hold my friends close.........

    And don’t tell me that I have not been a Vector of the Princess’s wrath.  

    Hell hath no furry........

    This is personalism on steroids, one might say.  

    When it comes to the Eschaton, some might find it comforting to know that we not just on autopilot.  Others....... not so much.......

    At this point, we might wonder....... what is the best possible workaround for the Eschaton?

    It seems that we might wish to avail ourselves of a Princess portal, or two.  

    Mind you that I’ve never seen one in action, but there have been...... extenuating circumstances, shall we say.  

    I do refer to information Tinkerbell, for instance........

    It was Spring night on the ocean side of St Catherine’s, with four of us present...... 1,2,3&3.5......

    In the mid distance away from the beach was a bobbing light.  Another visitor out enjoying the night air?  Sure, why not?  Hmmm........ dollars to doughnuts.......  the Eschaton may ride in that balance.  That’s all.  All we can do is connect the dots.  

    It’s Tinkerbell against the Eschaton.  That’s hardly fair, unless things get very personal....... which is sort of the point.  

    It does seem that the global powers are after the holy grail in Sevastopol....... also in the Ladakh mountains.  dnc server..... crowd strike, etc......?   My *ss.  It’s all about entanglement...... and it’s a real can of worms.

    You have to be reborn as the dumb, fat, lazy hero Dan.

    That’s about as much as I know, and even that is a lie.

    The two greatest archetypes I have met along the way to myself are The Dude and Po from Kung Fu Panda.

    Just my dumb opinion.

    These two Dudes have the power of slack and they love cookies, dumplings, and smoking fat blunts.

    I’ve channeled my inner Dude in the face of annihilation and now the way is clear.

    I found my self.

    Straight on not knowing.

    “It begins with the stupefying, unintroduced Dude.
    Then comes the half-and-half.
    The half-and-half is poured into a beverage with three parts.
    Everything gets mixed up in all this.
    All things come from this carefully held beverage: The world begins with a thirst, and ends with a buzz.
    We invent new things my mixing old products together.
    The world is a giant supermarket.
    Try to find the best ingredients at the lowest cost.
    Many people look at the Dude with suspicion, Yet the wise see the Dude as a hero, Only, they won’t say that exactly.
    They know that in a tumbling tumbled world, It is the upside down who are often the most upright.
    Though many learned men have disputed this, Those who treat the world as their home Will be casual and comfortable anywhere they go.” -Dude De Ching

    “ It’s simple
    to become a sage: all
    that’s required is to burn
    up, die, and cool
    into ashes.

    Rise early,
    then, and set fire to
    all you think and feel and
    believe. Look beyond the smoke
    of that pit into what is left:
    emptiness filled with
    emptiness.

    Breathe it in.
    Pour it out. Circulating
    the Oneness without stopping,
    endlessly renewing your determination,
    working steadily day after day and
    year upon year, you’ll find
    yourself alert, rested,
    illuminated.”

    -We Wu Wei Ching 18

    Quotes can be good pointers but don’t get hung up on them.

    Don’t hide behind them.

    If you understand what they point to you see it’s much simpler than repeating good Dude-like quotes.

    The inner Dude does not live in any book or quote, it lives in the one true Dude.

    If you haven’t met the one true Dude yet go look, he/she is you.

    This is the natural self.

    Unconcerned Abiding and Relaxed.

    But a good Dude-like quote is a good Dude-like quote nonetheless.

    Religions are born to kill your inner Dude.

    Don’t let them take what’s already yours.

    Science wants to slice and dice your inner Dude.

    They are very un-Dude like.

    Science and religion are looking for love in all the wrong places.

    Only thing one can do is shine their own little light in a dark world and enjoy their little garden growing in the ashes of simple acceptance.

    Accepting the world as it truly is, not knowing, not doing, on finds the universe comes to them and dances with them in the dark.

    God it feels good to be born again.

    The sage is slow and steady, not rushing too quickly ahead.

    Easy does it.

    Steady....aim.....fire!

    Effortless limitless power doing not doing and knowing not knowing.

    They will try to snuff out your little light.

    Let em try.

    They are afraid of what they don’t know.

    You are the sage and the master of the way.

    Happy drifting!

    ”Who takes the Cold Mountain Road takes a road that never ends.

    Dan and Cy, population reduction talk is muppet talk.

    You want to fight evil in the world then talk about what it means to live the good simple life.

    There is enough fear and evil in the world already.

    The law of attraction says what you think about comes about.

    You want Armageddon then talk about it.

    I say there is enough blood on the streets already.

    We celebrate life by holding out our little flame in the dark dark world.

    So forget depopulation.

    Forget the eschaton.

    Live....simple and free...or don’t.

    Good luck.

    In this

    we don’t have a thing to offer you.
    That is why you can rely upon

    Ack....... stop the world, I want to get off!

    Ack doesn’t like roller coasters...... yes, there is that adrenaline rush.

    And here we are...... just coming over that first rise...... clankity, clankity, clank.......

    I’m listening to David Tong talking about quantum fields at the Royal Institute.  I once made fun of the spaghetti vacuum...... Charlie Misner was not amused....... this is serious stuff, sports fans.  If we understood the spaghetti vacuum, we might understand the Charge of the Light Brigade.  

    Yesterday, there was a serious lacuna....... in spinning my tale of the Golden Fleece, I forgot to mention the black gold that makes the world go ‘round.  But this reminded me of the Argonauts and Jason.  The Jasons is a phenomenology group.  We just have to figure out what the phenomenology group has to do with the spaghetti vacuum.  


    12:30........

    And then there is this........ https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2018/03/10/putin-says-jews-russian-citizenship-could-behind-u-s-election-meddling/413321002/ ..... talk about entanglement......

    Yes, everyone and their brother has a finger in this pie. There is an expression...... dig deep..... doggie in the bottom of the pot.

    not on some adrenaline kick here.

    Just very relaxed and comfortable in my natural stupefied state.

    I’m not going to hide from myself again.

    I’ve found the pearl of great price in a dark dark cave.

    I worked hard for two years to find myself and I will let my little light shine here.

    The dude abides.......

    I never thought I’d say that. I must be on the other side of the portal.

    No portals.

    What portal?

    There is only one place one could be and it’s simply here.

    Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide.

    All we have to do is figure out what here is.  

    https://www.nytimes.com/2019/11/22/opinion/trump-impeachment.html

    Is this Ukraine?  What is our path forward?

    We have the big three...... Trump, Putin and Xi.  

    What are we going to do with them?  

    They know that we can’t move forward with modernity.  They can’t visualize post modernity..... so they beckon us back to the slumber of original participation...... populism/tribalism.  

    They see themselves as the three Amigos.  Trump is desperately trying to to keep up politically with the other two.  Is this our manifest destiny?  

    Trump abides...... Putin abides...... Xi abides?  

    What is a chicken to do?  

    Run around with its head cut off?  

    The three Amigos are bent on carving up the world.  Then what?  

    Will they carve each other up?  

    Everything else, they see as a Jewish plot...... as the NWO.  

    We understand that the Jews are in no hurry for Disclosure.  This is one thing that the Four Horsemen agree upon....... keep kicking the Disclosure can down the road.  This is also what the Dudes abide...... kick the can.  

    We have the three amigos and/or the four horsemen and the dudes....... and the muppets.  

    And then there is the chicken.  

    And then there is the Princess.  

    And there is Impeachment.  

    And there is the Ukraine.  

    Impeachment and Ukraine are microcosms.  

    We have 3 + 1 + d/m + P/c + 2micros..... and we’re halfway to another mnemonic.  


    3........

    I’m watching a post materialist social order with Mishlove and Grossman.  


    6:30..........

    At one point I said that everything is a portal.  That needs some qualification.......

    If anything is a portal, that would be the human mind.  

    Sentience is a portal without a sense of self....... no sense of identity.  

    Atoms and organisms have shared portals.  Sapient beings confer identity onto the non-sapient.  Animist/totemic cultures are proficient in this regard.

    Sacred objects and locations, especially, may participate in such transference.  

    This is simply a restatement of pantheism, with the understanding that persons greatly predominate in the coCreation.  

    When it comes to the politics of portals...... things get convoluted.  

    But, first, I’ve said that we are the imaginary playmates of the primordial sapience/person.  These playmates could be totemic in nature, of course.  There would have to be a degree of reciprocity, if the relation were to be sustained.  

    Some playmates would want to organize their own games.  There could be teams, of course.  How does this hall of mirrors not spin out of control...... with war in Heaven?  

    Possibly, the three Amigos are in war with the seed Abraham, for instance.  Whose team would I be on?  The Princess’s team, or does she work for the 3 Amigos?  It could get complicated.  

    Which is the winning team?  


    10:30/ft............

    Why doesn’t the Monad split apart?  It does..... that’s what we call Creation.  And why doesn’t it stay split?  

    Why is it always a small world?  Why no inflation, or whatever?  

    Do keep in mind that time is an illusion, along with everything else, besides the Monad, itself.  

    Why not multi-Monads?  

    In the End, hate is necessarily parasitic upon love.  

    In the End, there is necessarily only one person, with the identity of indiscernibles.  

    Everything is a microcosm of everything else.  


    12:30........

    I mean, look around...... does anyone really want to go back home?  At the very least, there is a great deal of trepidation.  

    Are we given no choice in the matter?  

    If we want to go back home so much, why are so many pushing on the door to still get out...... to the wide open spaces out here?  Even a ghetto has more freedom, no?  

    Doesn’t the Monad get claustrophobia...... for heaven’s sake?  

    Maybe I’d better sleep on this one.

    Do your princess and portal and eschaton work as you feel Dan.

    Your delusions, not mine.

    I won’t bother you on your threads.

    I’ll do my own thing over in my own topic.

    Peace out!

    Discord.

    A good smell in this context.

    I sew discord when I can, a fine path to nowhere.

    The Dude is political, but in the slackest way.

    Perhaps you have figured out what the Dude is all about, doubt it though.

    You double, triple, and quadruple your confusion rather than listening.

    Which all are free to do of course.

    Well, while you wait for an apocalypse, the Dude has returned and walks the Earth looking for Human Beings.

    Right under your noses.

    Neat trick, huh?!

    You really can’t see it.

    It is quite humorous actually.

    The Dude does not talk about geopolitics.

    The Dude had a good night, some good beer, a warm woman, in a warm bed with his pack cuddled up to him.

    Things are just fine.

    The Dude is the Self of course.

    Jesus won’t be back I’m sorry to say Wink

    Ever, as you know him, he is a fantasy, a twisted idol.

    The Dude does indeed abide it all, including non-abiders like you.

    For if you gave up your crusade and took the years you have left walking with the Dude, you could find your answers and forget your questions.

    Perhaps that state of indeterminacy makes you uncomfortable, I’d stick with what makes you uncomfortable.

    You have to go all the way to go through that portal.

    All the Way!

    You and all muppets can bump around confused as long as you like.

    We might do some terrible things and reduce our numbers, but the Dude will still be here.

    It will never not be about the Dude.

    The Dude will always sing to us we have all we need.

    Come out and play
    There is nothing to say

    Smell the flowers
    Never take a shower

    Drink some beer
    Why would we ever fear

    Oh, the wolves you say
    Shoo shoo away away

    Offer them a bone every now and then
    When the beasts are looking a little thin

    Eventually they will join us in our play
    There was really never anything to say
