Main Hype / Dev. Thread - Beyond Limitless: Into the Wonder

Exactly. The copy is archetypal for accessibility, but the scripts generally are extremely practical, focusing on “tools” and strategies one can practically apply to their lives.

The “hypnotic” effect of the copy is actually a very basic literary skill that I evolved. I call it, “the dots.” You can see this in the Seductress copy, where we used highly charged moments in time to paint a picture. She goes to the coffee shop and the man objectifies her. We leave the descriptions empty, however, as opposed to what you’d see in a novel, because the goal is for those who have experienced this to remember what they felt, and then the rest of the copy (the “features” part) will either resonate with them or not, because instead of selling a product, we’re attempting to help the individual understand if they even NEED a product, or if the simple understanding of what has happened in their lives in enough.

You’re starting to understand how Zero Point works.

And yes, you are correct to an extent. That is exactly how we approach researching a title. I’ll give everyone a tiny look (which we’re going to discuss more later). If show you a picture of a television and say “what’s the first thing that comes to mind,” you might say “entertainment.”

@Fire and myself would say “glamour and illusion.” Everything on television (tell a vision) is exactly that, an idealized, glamourized version of the truth generally full of illusion. What we then proceed to do is say, “why exactly does this exist, and what function does it serve?”

And we might come to the conclusion that “illusion” is necessary for the individual to develop a discerning faculty within themselves, and thus – taking wealth as an example – a module might be made called “Discerning Between Illusion and Truth in Wealth Matters,” which would help in practical terms – like knowing if a particular client is lying to you for manipulative purposes, or if you’re hiding your true potential behind some kind of self-made illusion.

But it is hard to explain all of the connections made to get there, so we explain it instead in archetypal terms that are more useful. But the script itself always remains practical.

Well hooray. Glad at least some of what I was saying translated. The post was not specifically for @Sub.Zero more to provide insight to the creators about my own experiences, but SZ decided to make it personal and in so doing completely missed the point of what I was saying trying to pick it apart.

In my mind taking a three word phrase out of context from an entire post and then modifying those words several times so they mean completely different things and then trying to pontificate on it isn’t accidentally misunderstanding something, it’s deliberate.

In either case, I’m completely disgusted at SZ and this has left a very bad taste in my mouth like gargling with draino (how’s that for “rich sensory language” SZ?). I had already made the decision last night to take at least a week off from the forum because SZ’s attacks made me feel like my contributions are not valued here. I only came back momentarily to acknowledge Saint’s response which was a breath of air compared to getting notifications in my inbox about people discussing “what might obewan mean duh?” as if my words are some kind of inscrutable hieroglyphs.

I’m still taking the week off as it truly isn’t worth this level of frustration and energy drain dealing with this BS for one person to maybe understand it. At some point after the siesta I may try to elaborate on some other thread if the stars align, but for now, I’m done.

Let’s just relax, everyone. No need for contentious arguments. We’re open to hearing what both of you and everyone else has to say.

Does you having the time to deal with “bickering in the sandbox” mean that TS is nearing its completion?

:snowflake:

Nah. It’s a weekend, so I’ve just been vibing. It’s in the works, however. Next few weeks.

so that is why even I am not running any spiritual sub I keep having those spiritual epiphanies….I repeatedly write those types of things in my journal….I thought I was talented in those type of thinking….now ,I see it is the effect of the sub….interesting…. :upside_down_face:

Since there was talk about aligning with the stars and such, I’ll let myself toy with some ideas. It’s just an exercise—nothing serious, really.

Yes, I got swayed by the discourse on scripting language, but what I meant was the act, not the language. There’s no need to use seductive language in order to seduce.

Seduction is about creating illusions—the illusion that what the ‘victim’ desires is within their reach, just a hand’s stretch away, like an apple waiting to be plucked.

Now, knowing more about the mechanics…

…perhaps it would be possible to use the approach I’m talking about to strengthen that very faculty of discernment.

“For God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” (Genesis 3:5, NIV)

Seducing the subconscious into helping us “open our eyes,” into helping us remove our self-made illusions.

That process—opening our eyes—is natural. It’s already present in ZP. It’s about experiencing your results, your new reality, gradually widening your perception, shedding illusions one by one, and discovering your true identity and potential.

So, how do we seduce the subconscious into helping us? By creating the strongest illusion there is in spoken and written language—a myth. That would be the “unfolding” part, which must be backed up by the “tool” part.

The “tool” part would have to be a legend (seriously, lol). A legend where you are the protagonist—the one who must make things happen using tools like swordsmanship, charm, bench-pressing 200 kg… you name it.

:snowflake:

I think this should go to another thread for discussion. Too much potential to derail the current intent of this one.

Thanks.

However, discussing this was not my intent, just a mental exericse upon all the previous discourse. It was going beyondinto the wonder on my part. I’m sorry.

Cheers.

Or is your potential smothered by the fear of confronting the truth about what you’re truly capable of?

How would you feel if you realized that you have the power to conquer the world, yet you’re still living with your parents at 40, playing video games? That realization would probably scare the hell out of you, because the gap between the truth you’re faced with and the self-made illusion you’ve been living in would be both unimaginable and overwhelming.

What would you do in that case? You’d try to repress that revelation and continue living in your self-made illusion. Recon. Hellish on top of that. Possibly even going insane.

Gradually honing that discerning faculty in the matters covered in the script, and backing it up with relevant experiences, would help ease the fear and overcome it to get closer to the truth.
