The Rhythm 0 art display completely relates to the Stanford Prison Psychology experiment. Give a group in this modern society total control of other human/s you get this shiz. Ah, but why? Is it humans or is it humans under the umbrella of some kinda social structure that, which creates the environment for these things to occur. Or is there even a difference between human psyche and the social structure they operate within? Is it both? Personally, the surrounding environment is my pick for the issue...not so much the individual. Why, because "The True Cost of Passive Acceptance...in this society.

Since it makes no doubt that thought comes not from man but from elsewhere, I attribute everything that's wrong with the world to that.

I understand and empathize with you. Yet, once you come to this conclusion, what is the next step in critical thought processing for the person containing said understanding? I felt humbleness when discovering how duped I had been by the boxed reality I was born into. To realize how duped you are when going through the process of "enlightenment" can be denied, pushed aside and ignored if too much shame is felt. Yet, the key to enlightenment is the root word (verb), to lighten. Lighten what you might ask?

Once these thoughts are clear to me I don't get angry at the world cultural situation. I contain compassion and empathy for those lost "souls" if you will. Then I eat crow and feel humbleness once again. Because who am I to define them as lost?

You don't understand me because it is impossible to do so. You may empathize all you want, compassion and empathy are just the first step to true enlightenment. Those spiritual 'masters' are full of shit but they aren't evolved enough to know it.

Far, far beyond 'enlightenment' is the Supramental, the true higher state of mind. It is beyond all of spirituality, which is simply a scheme to limit man's evolution.

What if the Supramental, which BWT I also see the beauty within this word/idea is the same thing the masters where talking about through the word/idea "spirituality"? They use a different mechanism to walk the path up the mountain of Supramentality.

Oh no. I know both intimately. I am far beyond what any of these spiritual masters has attained and if I could consider the idea of being in their state, I don't doubt I would actually vomit. Spirituality is infinite but limited, a perfect trap. Spirituality requires that mind remain somewhat identical through the process of its 'enlightenment' whereas the Supramental requires absolute destruction of the self and its mind-attributes.

Spiritual 'enlightenment' is fully contrary and opposite to the Supramental.

    There is nothing after the Supramental but its creative endeavors, which are the reason for the creation of the human race to begin with. It is the evolutionary terminal of Man, at least as we can think of as "human".

    You are perceptive in detecting anger. Anger and hatred are the mark of the Supramental. Never directed at living beings though. For example you might believe that this anger you perceive is directed at YOU but it is not: it is directed at the disinformation which your words convey and especially at the roots of this disinformation, which you, like pretty much every other human being on this planet, have integrated into your "self".

    As such, it is easy to confuse righteous anger and hatred at those otherworldly intelligences that seek to enslave mankind, and do so in large part through spirituality, with anger and hatred directed at the person. Distinguishing between the two requires some degree of presence on the Supramental planes already.

    Yes, my issue with hatred is when it is focused on living beings. I've never seen these words used, thank you.

    I love Marina Abramovic. Her art is spectacular and controversial. Question... is she a satanist?

    Of course she is.
