The MALKUTH Catharsis (Malkuth Journal)

There’s a Subjective Sensation threshold - the point at which you sense, perceive, notice changes or growth that are associated with your subliminals.

There’s also a Recon (or Systemic Adaptation) threshold - the point at which the structure, form, process of your mind-body-lifestyle begins to undergo significant shifting, change, or growth related to the subliminals.

These are not necessarily the same line.

The difference between them might be thought of as Subliminal-related Discernment or Sensitivity. or Intra-Systemic Discernment or Sensitivity.

‘How much change needs to happen in your system before you experience a subjective sensation of it?’

I’m noticing a Sensation Threshold of about 12 to 15 minutes. With both programs actually.

It doesn’t mean that changes start happening at 12 to 15 minutes. It’s more a comment on my inherent cluelessness/clued-in-ness. It seems to be where I start to notice things a bit more easily.

One of the ways to connect with what your higher, wisest self is telling you is to listen to the advice and counsel that you offer to other people.

This can relate to mundane matters or to profound.

F**k it.

Fact is, I don’t even like harming/killing insects. Not because of karma precisely or anything like that.

It’s like: “Do you know what went into making that?”

Feels like walking into an art or treasure room and just carelessly trashing things in there.

Not saying I’m ‘right’ or something. And sometimes I don’t see any better way, so I kill the thing. But it often feels like a kind of ignorant thing to do.

Happiness, Thriving, Wellbeing are STATES AND CONDITIONS OF MIND.

That’s ALL that they are.

Blessings are external conditions that (usually temporarily) make it easier for us to access and stabilize those states and conditions of mind. Crutches and scaffolds.

SUMMER Sleep name-embedded hybrid major arrived today. I’ll play 15 seconds before bed.

What pushes this across the line for me is the facilitative, results-smoothing potential of both programs. I’ve been having increased sleep issues for the past 2 months. So it’s timely. But what really makes me willing to integrate it is that it will serve my core projects.

I should record.

Background:
For the last 2 (?) months, approximately, I’ve noticed some degradation and disruption of my sleep quality and routines.

I found that my sleep transitioned into a fairly stark bimodal pattern. I’d fall asleep, wake up after after 3 to 4 hours (approximately 1 sleep cycle), and then sometimes not return to sleep after that. So the day was begun in sleep debt, and there were often spaces of fatigue during the day. Because of work, i would just push it to the side, and get through it. Then often, by the time I laid down again at night, I would finally feel awake again. Wash, rinse, repeat.

Obviously, that last paragraph was about 5 sentences, so I have not exhaustively described every relevant detail of my daily routine, sleep hygiene, and relevant biological/behavioral/nutritional factors. It’s a summary.

And the process has not been linear. Some days/nights were a bit better and some were a bit worse. But the above-described pattern was more or less the average baseline during the past one or two months.

I tried a bunch of things, and some helped (or seemed to help) somewhat.

Intervention:
On Monday 20 April 2026, my ZPQ Name-Embedded Major Program Hybrid arrived: Summertime + Paragon Sleep. SUMMER Sleep.

I waited until around bedtime, around 12:45 AM that night, then I played 0:16 of SUMMER Sleep.

Initial Result

I fell asleep pretty smoothly. (Was pretty tired). And I slept through until 5:45 AM or 6:15 AM. That was already somewhat of an improvement. But then after I came back from the bathroom, I fell back asleep. I slept until 8:30 AM (which I could do that day). But the most amazing part:

I woke feeling rested.

That was the new part.

I felt rested. There were not the sensations of sleep debt/sleep fatigue.

So, to me, that’s amazing. I’m playing SUMMER Sleep every 4 days (since it’s the third program in my stack now). So I’ll get the chance to try 30 seconds on Friday 24 April.

And we’ll see how things develop from this point.

ADDED:

I should note, additionally, that I woke today Wednesday 22 April again feeling more rested than usual. So continued effects on Day 2.

I’d been experiencing tightness in the left lower leg after leg presses on Sunday evening. Getting higher-quality sleep has helped my recovery and regrowth process post-resistance training.

Today 1 loop of INTERFACE and 1 loop of Al-Kara Khan.

Over the past months, I was intent on completing Alchemist and Khan Black as soon as possible so that I could begin working with Royal Alchemist: AEON.

But the last stage of Alchemist 3 and Khan Black 3 gave me a deeper appreciation for both of these programs. I found that the energetic capacity of my system was evolving and strengthening; and my ontological evolutionary process (what some might call ‘spirituality’) was strengthened and energized.

I now relate to AEON as a continuance and outgrowth of a process that is fully engaged by way of Alchemist and Khan Black. I’ll most likely stay with them for a number of months before transitioning to AEON.

I’m also thinking that when I do begin working with AEON, I may swap out Khan Black and continue to work with Alchemist 4. We’ll see how I feel/think. But Al-Kara Khan may evolve into ARS AEONIS.

Mal would you ever run Ros, alchemist st4 and khan black st4 together?

I think about this frequently.

Revelation of Spirit feels like the most Me program out of everything here. I thought I would just always play that and Revelation of Mind. I thought I would never play Alchemist again. But then AEON came along. And with it came the invitation to do another run of Alchemist and Khan Black. So I took the invitation, and rediscovered appreciation for the ‘WILL-based’ and ‘INTENTION-based’ development programs.

I guess what I think about a lot is not combining Alchemist and Khan Black with RoS. It’s once again replacing them with RoS. The previous me used to plan these things out in detail. That me would have probably planned on running AEON stages 1 through 3 and then when I arrive at AEON stage 4, combining that with Revelation of Spirit and running it indefinitely. But now, I’m more interested in moving with the process and learning from my experiences as they evolve.

So, we’ll see.

What is your take on all of these programs? How are you relating to them?

Ros seems to unravel things in some mysterious way and there is a lightness about it like no other,

Khan black went through that quite a bit when it came out. Have taken a break from it recently but am looking forward to an update espically if its unerfed, initially it would bring alot of fuel after a while seemed like it was not required

Have not been able to go through alchemist series, though like to at some point especially if its updated with the new tech.

When you ask ai the combo has potential, but on the downside it says it cam be too scattering, like to experiment with it as some point.

I reject the trope of the ‘Colonizing Project’.

I don’t want to frame life or my life in this way.

It’s an implicit societal, semiotic, cultural frame that is inserted foundationally into so many aspects of living, sense-making, and interaction.

No.

Finally did today’s subliminal loops. 1 loop of INTERFACE and 1 loop of Al-Kara Khan.

Combined with meditation hour today, from 4:45 to 5:45.

INTERFACE in particular seems to be getting a lot of legwork. I may be getting closer to initiating projects.

I’ve been engaged in this muddled groping searching/articulation process.

And today has been one of those days. I’ve been circling around difficult-to-express views and ideas all day.

I find it really helpful to converse with AI around these things, since it avoids the distractions of human egocentrism that slow down these kinds of conversations between people.

Had a breakthrough about an hour after playing my stack.

I’m not even going to edit this very much because it’s for me and my records here in my journal:

6:50 PM Sunday 26 April 2026

So it seems to me that what I’m doing and working on (and this is particularly slippery to contextualize) is a BUSINESS project – a business lab.

I’m using that term perhaps somewhat idiosyncratically. To me a BUSINESS (in part) is a space of sovereignty. A space within which experiences, perceptions, interactions are engaged sustainably in a way that supports your Vision and your Way of Being. That’s the context, to me, for Business Development. It’s to establish a space in which meaningful things can be done sustainably.

So there’s a kind of tricky, slippery, aspect to this.

I’ll try to express it another way.

If a person loved baseball cards or dog-information cards, and the person created a CLUBHOUSE space where those cards could be bought, traded, enjoyed, talked about, in a way that is socially and financially sustainable, then that person has created a business that supports what is valued and loved. The business is less about the specific cards, and it is more about the space that supports interacting with those cards.

that is a 2nd order or other-order level of abstraction and engagement.

For a person who does not understand ordered levels of abstraction and who just collapses the whole thing; they may just talk in terms of baseball or dogs. And that’s fine…

…as long as they are not in charge of that space.

That’s similar to a movie fan who never thinks about the behind-the-scenes elements that ACTUALLY create movies. Or a theatre-goer who never learns about the cast and crew.

But for those involved in the TRUE craft of theatre, their engagement will go far beyond reading plays in the local library.

THAT (reading) is in itself a worthy undertaking. I’m not talking about what’s better, just what’s different.

In my case, I am somewhat active on both levels. I want to be able to study, practice, and engage with what inspires me. But I think that a BIG, BIG part of what I’m groping and reaching towards now is not about the content of those things, it is about the framing and space-creation for MY ENGAGEMENT with those things.

The building of a metaphorical CLUBHOUSE or SPACE or FIELD.

That’s the ‘Businessing’ of it. The ‘En-Business-ment’ of it.

How do I create a space that supports my creativity, my legitimacy, within which I can create, and from which I can express? WHATEVER I currently am genuinely working with?

This is the BUSINESS question.

Legitimacy. Confidence. Viability. Sustainability.

Aphanipoiesis (n.) combines two words from ancient Greek to describe this way in which life coalesces toward vitality in unseen ways. (Aphanis comes from a Greek root meaning obscured, unseen, unnoticed; poiesis is from one meaning to bring forth, to make.)”

I’m starting to observe a growing flow of results.

I don’t get a lot of sensations associated with sessions;

but I do see results. And manifestations/synchronicities.

And thse days, they’re coming fairly close to my exposure times/listening sessions.

I was being careful to adhere to the microloop progression. But I have found that at ZP Standard, for now at least, a full loop may be my ideal listening time for my current stack. I’m wondering if I should, as in the past, consider working with Terminus builds.

I went for another play of INTERFACE and Al-Kara Khan; baked into my morning meditation hour.
