AI POWER: WORDS,BELIEVED. REALITY,CONCEIVED.
{ Part Two }
Our candles sputter and burn too briefly. We are distracted and contracted, busied with leaving the garden to live in a darkening machined world.
~ Anonji
“In the beginning was the Word.” And what a word-world they weave, apparently, especially with AI’s mind and heart-numbing collection of nothing but words, machined! Their fretfully endless parsing for meaning, knowing, power, and security speaks volumes about our superficial, me-centric and non-sustainable ‘future’ way of supposedly living. Of course, words have their place and utility, their technical ability, but psychologically, they enchant us with a faux personal reality that keeps us enchained, stressed, worn, and weary. Do words, believed, matter?”
Indeed, conception in its worded form begets deception; contradiction, opposition, and misconception. To ‘misconceive’ words is to believe them. The mind conceives of a world of its making; all words merely ‘speak’ about words. They are the very genesis of the so-called ‘duality’ that seemingly separates, conjuring apparent division when, in reality, there is only One.
~We form what we see with a personal, conditioned eye. An aware, uninformed, innocent eye looks beyond belief and sees
These words represent ‘what is’ (reality) conceptually; they cannot ever actually know, only render in other words, symbolically. As always, to dissect a frog is not to know what a frog is. If one is serious and curious beyond labels about the truth of one’s real existence, it’s essential perhaps to see that words about it are just that, and to recognize there’s no truth in any and all dualizing words. They’re Vaporware. Words are mind-made pointers that, in and of themselves, take their functional ‘meaning’ and viability from humanity’s conditioned beliefs. Beliefs that arise out of born, personal, inbred insecurities.
Belief conjures a believer, a me, and a you, yes. There is in non-personal fact, no such believer, only mind’s beliefs. That which is aware of these words is ‘behind’ the supposed, invented, and implied ‘person who’ is apparently reading them now. In other words, there is no person, no personal experience or experiencer, only some non-thing (nothing) called “truth.” ‘Truth’ itself is not only not a word, but also not knowable. In truth, one can only know the false, i.e., that which is not true.
“To know that you do not know is the best.
To think you know when you do not is a disease.
Recognizing this disease as a disease is to be free of it.”
― Lao Tzu
The truth that can be known cannot be spoken about, just as it takes real inner beauty to actually know beauty, real joy to really enjoy, non-personal love to love, etc. These resonate in one’s being. There’s peace only in truth; that peace lies in knowing that one infinitely IS awareness, and in not knowing what one is, there being no knower. In other words, reality ain’t personal, ain’t nothing to talk about. 😉 Only awareness IS. Another word for awareness is love.
