Circuitry might be a decent (next?) topic for Notself Saturday š¤
"You have to see that the collective and the tribe have a natural way of finding their position in life relative to others. So the community has its built in mechanisms, the collective has its sharing , but individuality doesnāt have any of these things.
One of the most interesting thing about the collective is that it saysā are you bored?ā are you crazy? How can you be bored? There are so many things to do. There are so many things to see ā this is the collective āare you bored?ā and the individual is sitting there, ānothing is happeningā. Look at all the things, its all around you,ā this is the collective.
The tribe, when the tribe looks at the collective it thinks ālook at all the shit they are busy withā The tribe says no no you are only suppose to be busy with this.ā But the tribe never says, "nothing is happening." It just has a different priority about what is going on and what the priorities are, the cross. The freaks? They donāt get itā¦.
ā¦.if you want to see the deep deep psychological dilemma in humanity there is only one place to go; you go to the circuitry. This is where it is.
And you see to operate correctly as a freak, to operate correctly with individuality its not so much to intellectually accept that it's alright and nothing may happen. It's one of my things of, I never asked why thatās not me. When I disappeared out of my western life, when I abandoned family, and child, and businesses and just went out into the world I never said, "why are you doing this?" I never asked myself that question. When I ended up living in a tree I never asked myself, "why are you doing this?" When the voice came and gave me this knowledge I never said, "why did you pick me? And it's one of the things to understand about the nature of the deepest encounters they donāt come when you are waiting for it, looking for it, warning it, yearning it, needing it. It doesnāt come. And if it does come its only coming to punish you.
So you end up mad, or you end up dead, or you end up crazy. This is what individuality has to understand and I say understand as a keynote. They cannot know that. They have to be taught that. And its not easy to teach individuals anything. They donāt like to listen, they are not good at hearingā¦.
See the collective is rewarded by being able to have reliable patterns and a good collection of experience. it makes life worth while. If you are a tribal being and you have the privilege of family and children and all of that it makes life worth while you can always say this is life, this is what it is. But for the individual that is not something that is there for them. Any aspect of individuality is willing to accept what is only in expectation that it will change, not in expectation that its going to remain the same. I will accept my life for what it is, I will accept to continue going along my plane-ing life and its something that we need to instill in everyone.
It is not about the big events. Its not about these horrible pitchings of freaks. It's the freaks that are responsible for this shit. They are the ones that sell you the propaganda that you can wake up like this and you can have this satori experience and your whole world will change over night. Itās not true. It may be true for them but for everybody else its quite a process and for most beings that donāt have the benefit and privilege of this knowledge there is no mechanical root to even get there. And unless beings understand that it is being now here for whatever its worth, for whatever it is, this is all there is. There isnāt anything else and its only when the individual spirit can truly accept its limitation."
