Category: Self Development

We have the potential to uncover self-awareness on a scale that makes even our brightest minds look shallow and petty. Is this not desirable? Humans insist that they have better ideas than nature does, but your brain is not your brain, it’s natures brain, and your judgements and rational thought are not evidence of your evolution, they are a virus, memetic corruption.


To me, self-development is developing a self. Actually specializing your inner mind to broaden the entire consciousness of our planet. When we seek to “work” we are seeking to sleep. We are avoiding awareness. We want the comfort of the worker bee.

  • What is Self-Development?

    What is Self-Development?

    What is self-development? Trying to improve yourself and your lot in life. Fulfilling one’s potential. Examining an aspect of self or the environment and changing your relationship to it. Excellent. There really isn’t a wrong answer. Your answer does reveal how you relate to the world. There are often subtle differences of emphasis, or the…

    Wild Animals in Cages

    Why aren’t we all brilliant scientists or great composers of symphonies? Why are some folks homeless and out of work while others are thriving? Our pressures are no longer for survival, now they are social. Yes, cultural, but our organic bodies are still only equipped to handle the natural environment, so we behave like wild…

  • Society Evolution

    Society Evolution

    So if we stick to social guidelines, how do we develop? Boringly? Restricted, prudish. Can society evolve while individuals conform to expectations? Society becomes robotic. That’s the difference between conservative and progressive, both have their merits and weaknesses. Conservatives want nothing to change and progressives want everything to change. Can hierarchies survive if institutions are…

    Better Fangs and Claws

    So are we in an enlightened age? Why for all of our cleverness have we not found peace? Not everyone is clever, just some people. Everyone is cleverer these days than they were hundreds of years ago. Thousands of years ago some of our idiots would have been geniuses in the right places and in…

  • Natures Brain

    Natures Brain

    Here we can interact with an order that is infinitely greater than an organic brain. We can find ways not only to control our world, but we could be promoting the refinement of life in general, the evolution and wellbeing of all life on our planet. We have the potential to uncover self-awareness on a…

  • Developing a Self

    Developing a Self

    Even the human body is separated into organs. That’s where the word organize comes from. The human organism itself doesn’t confine itself to specific parts of itself. There are elements of our awareness that go untouched in the modern era, but even our science has proven that these can be used and even coaxed to…

  • Notion of Control

    Notion of Control

    Everybody these days dabbles in some self improvement reading, or almost everybody, and what do these books (or texts as the case may be) usually say to hook us? “You will become a better person — because we’ll help you to get rich”? Oh, that’s quite common, yes. Live the life you dream. Find the…

  • Space to Move

    Space to Move

    To renovate, to renew, to revive we must clear away blockages. What is it that makes something a blockage? Resistance? Can you renovate without removing anything? Maybe by enclosing all the old stuff in a new package, but that’s not really renovating. Abandoned perception. First perhaps a clarification of will. That thing that I mention…

  • Free Your Perception

    Free Your Perception

    Let me ask you, if there weren’t any bill boards, and someone approached you with the idea of creating them, and they needed your permission to do so, would you give it? ABSOLUTELY NOT! So why do you give permission for posting in your mind? We all absorb a great deal of material. We voluntarily…

  • Repair the Mind

    Repair the Mind

    After you repair the structural damage, well maybe I am getting ahead of myself… How to repair damaged regions of the mind. First, reopen the original context in which it formed. You have to recover a sense of why you thought and felt that way in the first place, and then you have to connect…

  • Our Quantum Zeno Effect

    Our Quantum Zeno Effect

    Guess what seems to be the foundation of any stability in our world? They are even depending on it for the advancement of quantum computing. Shall I just say? Holding multiple perceptions? Actually, I will get into that. They call it the quantum zeno effect. The more something is observed, the more steadily, the more…

  • A Shadow Across Time Space

    A Shadow Across Time Space

    Space is three dimensional. This takes no wild stretch of the imagination. Time is also three dimensional. In our normal experience, we perceive time to play out over dimensions of space. We perceive ourselves to age over the dimension of space we allocate to our bodies, but in general, time seems to be invisible to…

  • Repossess the Resident

    Repossess the Resident

    Shall I reveal what actual “house” it is that you renovate? Well, it’s framework is made up of all the freeze frame moments of the self. Each version of you forming a pillar in the architecture. Remember the quantum zeno effect? Nothing can move? You are being perpetually observed, so you have in fact never…

  • Differing Approach

    Differing Approach

    Do you do what you do with your frustration, because it’s frustration? We adults have reasons. What if you handled frustration as frustration and didn’t make up reasons for it? How would you behave? How else to handle it? Oh, you make up reason for your frustration, and make up things you are supposed to…

  • Cut the Knot

    Cut the Knot

    Space [female] is not always willing or available for Time’s [male] possibilities….or is she? It always is. That’s a human notion and not a natural notion. We don’t see the middle ground, the common ground, and we only fail to see it because we aren’t looking. You are looking everywhere but at the ground you…
