Love the conversation between Sid and Sammy. Don't remember that bit about each knight going to his own dark place. Which version of the King Arthur legend contained that? It's been a while since I read any of them, but I read a LOT of them.
Poor Morty. Twenty minutes is not a few minutes, but The Psychology of Collapse is a great video. I'm stage five, distracting myself on Hive. Watching videos for hours of every day. I don't sleep well though, because of the predicament. And I just yesterday took some scissors to some grass!! For real! Stonks lol! I am, however, trying to influence other beings, so I'm good. Whew! It was dicey there for a bit.
Story of a prophet running now. There goes my day. Could be worse.
Thanks for tagging me. I would have missed this post, and it's a good one.
lol I'm only a few minutes in, and I want to say something
GO TEAM GNOSTIC.
If you liked Kumaré, you'll love this,

lol
He invented his own spiritual jargon!!! He told his followers he was fake, and still they followed him!
OK I'll stop and just go listen.
more commentary please.
This is amazing. I'm up to the part where he starts believing himself, about half way through. He sure is in touch with something in the way he figures out the right thing to say to all these people. How does he keep a straight face?!
I'm thinking his fluidity of identity is serving him very well. This is a concept I've been trying on - that I am not one thing, but many things that I ooze through depending on circumstances. Then again, maybe I think too much.
Am I the only one who hates vision boards?
The vision boards are like showing your underwear in public.
Sure, some people might be interested in the stains on your underwear, and that's great, those people are actually pretty hard to find, so you should definitely cherish them.
The Classical Problem of Identity (TCPOI) is one of my favorite topics of conversation.
What you figure out is that even when you are "being 100% authentic" nobody will believe you are being 100% authentic. They only believe you are sincere when you reflect their expectations.
Ah. I am not reflecting most people's expectations at present, bad little citizen of the totalitarian state that I am, and have few friends left. Somehow, I feel comforted by Kumare.
You are the most perfectly you that you can be,...it's not your fault that our forbearers couldn't leave us better than this.
It is only on us to leave it better than we found it.
Though, at this point, I'm about to give up on others ever catching on.
That should be when the change finally occurs, just before admitting defeat.
I'm glad you're still here.
OK mister I have just spent more than two hours on this post of yours. I still have @antisocialist's video to watch, as well as yours on identity. I need to go for a walk and reconnect with my inner not-self. Hopefully I will be back, because this has been swell.
8^) this one's only 3 minutes and 54 seconds.
He goes back to NYC and obscurity. Has a crisis of identity.
He finally unveils with a simple statement and a new hairdo.
I am not sure what to think of this. Perhaps that's the point. Is there a point? Maybe that there is no point is the point.
That was a great video.
I was shocked that ten of his "disciples" still "believed in him" after the final reveal.
I thought it would have been interesting if he actually let his "disciples" cut his beard and long hair and change his shirt as some sort of "ritual".
Also, that version of the movie available on youtube CUT THE SCENE that sammy described (WTF).
That doesn't surprise me. We are not allowed to rethink Hitler in any way. Today's con depends on our believing that only Hitler could ever have perpetrated such crimes, so that the actual entities who perpetrated those crimes could continue to perpetrate them all over the world, culminating in today's global eugenic takeover.
But I have to wonder who took that part out? Vikram?
I don't think so.
I think whoever posted the video probably clipped it out.
Well stated.
I'm not sure which version had the dark forest bit, but that's the great thing about myth, it evolves over time.
I'm certainly glad to hear you grokked the st andrew vid.
It's funny how each level thinks they're the only ones who know "the truth" and everyone who disagrees with them is "on a lower level".
Sid is constantly trying to get sammy "more woke".
Sammy knows what time it is.
