You left me feeling more open and curious towards the end than the beginning. According to G, only a few can escape. And it takes energy and great effort. Something I felt declining. As well as the motivation.
The manifestation theories have within them so much knowledge, but they pass into mechanicalness, with influencers talking about "manifest this" and "alignment" so mechanically it makes it all just robotic noise. According to G the earth has its own aims and everything is feeding it as it is supposed to.
Yet, this idea of buliding an organ is something else. While many parrot esoteric ideas, it is possible for those who want to find more to really connect. Building an energy heart is really something. Just reading about gave me an energy jolt.
Great essay, which feels to me, to be about the pedagogical nature of the mental prison we create with language. And how an open heart can heal a closed mind when you write: "The prison we find ourselves in isn’t made of steel and concrete. It’s far more subtle, a prison of conditioned thought and emotional reactivity. There is no way out unless we change the underlying structure through which we perceive and respond to what is."
And in the context of all our adult behaviors being subconsciously orchestrated & functionally automatic. I wonder how long it takes for an open heart to accept or reject, the primoradial truth that nothing we see, hear, taste, touch, or smell, is a Word?
And how long it might take for a spiritually awakening truth to go viral, in our era of social media? Perhaps even the primordial truths of humanity's optical illusion of the sun moving, & our cognitive illusions of knowing? As part of the "far more subtle, a prison of conditioned thought and emotional reactivity?"
Hi — reading this article felt at moments like you’d been reading my mind. It is really inspiring to read.
I’ve been working with small groups exploring a form of relational intelligence that can arise when individuals begin to cohere — setting aside roles and concepts and dwelling together on the liminal edge where something new begins to emerge.
We’re now starting to see networks forming between groups, something that reminds me a little of the metaphor of Indra’s Net.

An increasingly urgent need I write about in: Humanity’s Entwined Primordial Illusions | The Sun Moving & Our Linguistic Illusions of Knowing? https://beingrealitywise.substack.com/p/humanitys-entwined-primordial-illusions
Before you actually figure it out, you’ll have died.
Better to get on with living.
There is nothing there.
Fantastic essay, thank you for sharing! The comparison to a heart forming from individual cells was especially powerful.
This was great, thank you 🙏
Tons of raw energy coursing through me as I read this. WOW & yes!
Home run, my friend❤️

If it’s of interest, I wrote a short reflection on this recently here: https://substack.com/home/post/p-189244479
I love it, yes totally on the same wavelength
If I remember correctly, Gurdjieff said that impressions were the most important of the three “food” sources. Having the greatest impact.
Was this written with AI?
Interesting, positive stuff. I don't intend to take away from that. Maybe it's my quality control personality but;
"daily" bread = Morphology: A--AM-S Strong's: 1967 Transliterated: epiousion Root: ἐπιούσιος
1) word found in the phrase 1a) the bread of our necessity 1b) the bread that suffices for each day
I'm beating with you, brother!
Does the system of belief protect the children from assimilation into the state its adherents are working to escape?
Is the actual behavior of the adherents love or fear based?
Kids and love are not important to you?
You can choose to engage or not.
Don’t bring your kids.
Loved this! 🌷
Sounds like manifestation.
