enlightenment series 2: establishing dialog with knowledge

do not wake fully in the morning.
instead form a simple question in mind.
drift into sleep again holding the question.
upon waking again, do not waken fully.
bring the previous question to mind.
wait for an answer to follow.
if no answer…
simplify the question,
and take it into sleep again.
repeat until sleep is no longer available.
in this way a dialog can be created.
it being a useful source of knowledge.

continued practice will eventually lead to…

noticing that a voiced question asked of someone,
is answered by a mental voice at the same time or slightly before,
the answer from the individual that was asked.
the mental voice may sound like your own voice.

the mental voice will start answering questions more quickly.
eventually, the mental voice will answer before the full question can be voiced.

at this point the mental voice answers before the question is spoken.
and it will then answer before the question can be mentally formed.
then it answers when the need of a question is recognized.
the last step, the mental voice is no longer present as it is too slow.
here the answer is known when the need of a question is recognized.

enlightenment series 1: establishing a connection to knowledge

Simply through documenting unique thoughts, ideas, feelings, images, insights, concepts etc..
These can be documented through hand-writing, or through a note taking app.
Each entry should state the subject and description of what makes it unique.
The description should be as short as possible.
Smallest number of words to define the uniqueness.
Each time something unique comes to mind, it should be documented as quickly as possible.

By doing this the mind becomes accustomed to being at the edge of what is known.
This practice will also increase the rate of unique things that come to mind.
The reason for using as few words as possible.
Once the rate has reached the maximum,
maintain that level for a week or so and then,
slow down the documenting to every other unique thing,
then every third, etc until it is at a comfortable, easily maintainable level.

Continue this practice.
The rate will eventually slow on its own accord to once a day, month etc..

enlightenment series 0: making a crack in reality

What is real?
re-al
re: latin prefix: to do again, repeat
al: arabic definitive: The
real: a specific that repeats
(not etymology)

There are many ways to create the crack in reality.
a few being:
-chems.: farma lab based
-natural: various parts of various plants
-natural behavior: practices such as fasting, prayer, mantra, dancing, physical fatigue, bead counting, etc.
-trauma, life event, usually at an early age

Chems
-risky
-potential long term damage

Natural
-risky, but not as nearly as much as chems.

Natural Behavior
-benign
-takes time and focused dedication to crack reality

What is true of these three
-short term
-very little is brought back in a useable and shareable form.

Trauma
Forces a detachment from reality as defined via the repeated collective, social mind.

All of the examples can be the seed of a different reality that can start its definition. Effort.
