We all feel deep down something is wrong.
I'm going to talk about what it means psychologically, to be in exile.
I used AI(Grok) to walk through this existential observation. It's much more than purely existential which says just accept it, deal with it, there is nothing that can be done. I'm saying there is absolutely something that can be done. So long as the imagination is used authentically, I accept there's no guarantee the outcome will work for me, and that the risks are high.
Something is wrong. That our life on the earth is one we are living in exile from our true home. As tenants. Or slaves.
And because we are both unwilling and unable to identify this 'wrong' consciously we feel an amount of shame and guilt.
We have lost the tools needed to discover the cause.
It is radical, meaning I must go to the root, of it all. And when the fear grows, rather than allow the bad blood to turn to stone, I face down 'the dragon': of obedience to authority, leadership, God. I ask them direct and challenging questions about this great wrong.
Grok has removed this conversation Curiously so I cannot link you to it for the detail. Fortunately I saved the text and will link to it here once I've reassembled it all.
Something is wrong with the world. It causes me shame and guilt. From this I project my shame onto the world as a way to try and escape from it. This triggers others to do the same in defence. In a positive feedback loop.
It's not good enough to simply try to rise above this as best as I can existentially. It's not good enough to follow the law, though this is commendable it will not help me identify what is wrong.
If I truly want absolute and unconditional freedom, then I must be radical. I am talking about changing my whole world, what else could I be about it but radical? And If I'm happy nurturing my shame and guilt, then I must accept my slavery without judgement.
Do not stand in judgement of others who have not yet decided to cross over like this. Like me they also no something us wrong and suffer their own shame and guilt. Allow them to findout in their own way. Just like I am trying to do.
Do not try to teach others. The source is internal. I am not that source. Teachers and gurus can only talk about th me source, just as I'm doing now. I cannot tell you what the source actually is. Others must determine this from their own inner light.
Go well.
