EAch life is not only an individual;
It is also a link in a chain
And that chain is also a thread in a weave.
Systems interlaid in systems
at higher and higher levels of abstraction.
Simultaneously one and all.

Zen Chan 禪 is a method (collection of methods) of experiential investigation, processing, and integration of BEING, EXPERIENCING, CONSCIOUSNESS.
Experiencing is not what it seems to be.
For now, Iām going for a concerted push with the parts of life related to my INTERFACE custom. Not that Iām going to try to push or force things through (thatās not me); but I want to keep a stable, consistent focus on it.

I should probably get this rebuilt for the latest upgrades. And now the Experimental modules are automatically integrated, so removing those could potentially further lighten the build.
But for now, Iām just going to keep it locked in.
This is the main task and project of my life. This is it.
So, Iāve paused AEON until either a) I make significant additional progress or b) I feel that my processing has somehow become much more efficient and optimized.
It was subtle, but I was feeling the load of AEON when I introduced it. It feels like it has something real to do with my mind.
Lovely custom, bro.
It is a culmination of much of what Iāve aimed to do since starting here with Subliminal Club almost 7 years ago.
Kudos to your dedication, Malkuth.
Fear and the Perception of Threat (amygdala-land) are two crucial Translator Tools in human interaction.
The tricky part is that people often do not display their threat-perception (or even attempt to take much responsibility for it).
So, often what youāll get to witness is the personās Response to Threat Perception without getting to observe the Threat Perception itself.
This is compounded and reinforced by the fact that there is usually shame and taboo around acknowledging the perception of threats. Many people do not want to acknowledge it themselves, and they definitely do not want anyone else to acknowledge it.
In many situations where someoneās behavior is difficult for you to understand, itās worth checking to see whether that person may be perceiving threat. (they are). But what makes the difference between moving idiotically or moving with wisdom are a) how specifically you understand their perception of threat, and b) how you make sense of and respond to it.
This kind of thing is constantly expressing and unfolding in intimate relationships. We only see what is above the threshold. Donāt mistake ābelow thresholdā for ādoes not existā.
Sub-threshold fear and sub-threshold threat perception are constant influences on choices, decisions, actions. And moreover, they can be positive influences.
Our taboos around fear encourage us to view it in overly simplistic ways. Fear is much more complex than it seems. It helps you in areas that have nothing obvious to do with danger or weakness.
Anyway, this was on my mind this morning.
random thought tonight:
One thing that fascinates me is how coherent (even transiently coherent) cultural moments create histories and pasts that justify their configuration and their existence.
There will often be a kind of projective primordiality.
The reality of oneās past is often unbearable since it reveals one as historically contingent, and that very reality is the antithesis of the driving aspiration: to have always been here, to have always been MEANT to be here.
