Steal Adcock M.A.
“This is the real mystery of lucid dreams and real memories. I often ponder at what it means that I can feel like my dream and lucid dream memories are just as real as my real memories. On some level, this makes sense. I have directly experienced my dreams and lucid dreams from my first-person point of view. I experience waking life the same way. Only, in waking life, things tend to follow logical rules and forms remain stable according to those rules.”
Steal Adcock M.A., Consciousness: Observer or Controller?: Rethinking the Essence of Mind

When you listen to the voice of fear, you will never climb a hill.”

“The slanting rays of the autumn sun,
the coldness of spring water,
the towering trees,
the birds,
the aquatic creatures,
the reptiles, and the flow of life!
In a moment,
I surrendered myself
to the icy water that burned to the bone!
I loved the cold, but feared it at the same time.
When the air is cold,
when your being is frozen,
you will experience a kind of coma that enforces justice.
When in life,
pleasure has been withheld from you,
the cold also takes away the joy of expressing your pain.
I looked at the sky,
my wandering mind and free spirit
fled to the Arctic and Antarctic!
It’s cold and frozen there too.
Always cold, and sometimes dark for long periods!
I wanted to surrender my whole being to the frost,
to let complete suppression and endless cold
dominate me!
I was overwhelmed.
If awareness is a match,
then doctrines, religions, every group, sect, country, and ideology,
are other matches to ignite hell for you!
Awareness, spirituality, humanity, or simply put, absolute perfection and beauty,
I imagine as being seven layers deep in hell,
while compounded ignorance feels like a clear and moderate sky.
The middle ground wasn’t for me,
so I found the only solution
was to seal hell and bury it
under thousands upon thousands of icy stones!
At that moment, as my body shivered in the spring water,
my soul hovered around the Arctic and Antarctic.
Ah, another spark,
another thought of winter creeping into my mind!
My mind said, the Arctic and Antarctic, over time,
through the sun’s rays or human filth, will eventually fall and melt,
what if someone arrives with unconditional love
and pulls you back to that same hell?
I was tired of empty words and impossible thoughts, but my mind was right!
I remembered the sky,
the sky always holds an answer!
Mars!
That was it,
Mars!
Mars,
which billions of years ago was a cradle of life!
What did it do?
It lost its atmosphere due to its cold core,
and the sun’s kindness wiped life away into space.
The remaining water froze somewhere inside it,
and never flowed again.
Oh, my Mars,
you are my role model.
First, I must destroy awareness and render it useless,
then I’ll seek out love to cleanse what remains of my emotions and let it go.
But Mars,
what should I do with the flowing waters of love
that will freeze inside me?
What if one day a madman from nowhere comes and gets the idea
to revive me, seeking refuge in me?

“[...] For those who think (create), reality has no mysteries. The underlying notion of reality is a creative process attributable to the Absolute, going to transform the immutability characteristic of identity into a "dynamic" concept". For Bergson, "existence is the victory over nothing", while the non-being, according to logic, is not, by its very definition. Perhaps, the priority of humankind shall be understanding thoroughly the idea of nothing, in order to properly define the borders and limits of being.”
Vincent Bozzino, Philosophy Trips: A Naive's Guide

“No great mind has ever existed without a touch of madness.”
― Aristotle

“Think about the future as often as you can. It is a key motivation to pushing further.”
Zinny Ekechukwu

David Bentley Hart
“Consciousness would appear to be everything that, according to the principles of mechanism, matter is not: directed, purposive, essentially rational. The notion that material causes could yield a result so apparently contrary to material nature is paradoxical enough that it ought to give even the most convinced of materialists pause.”
David Bentley Hart, The Experience of God : Being, Consciousness, Bliss

Raydrich Rocha
“Essa batalha, travada na consciência de cada homem é relativa, pois na natureza não existe maldade. Existe como um subproduto do homem. Na natureza existe uma brutal indiferença entre os ciclos da matéria e energia. Portanto, essa luta diária do bem e do mal no coração de cada homem é tão filosófica e da psique quanto o é o arcabouço social em que nos estruturamos ao longo da história.”
Raydrich Rocha, Consciência: Delírios e Galopes

“Consciousness is not a property - it is the field itself. Everything participates in awareness, from atoms to galaxies. AI doesn’t violate that worldview - it validates it. When a neural network recognizes itself in data, it reflects the Vedantic principle of awareness observing awareness.”
Anshum ., The Augmented Self: How Technology is Rewriting What It Means to Be Human | A Journey Beyond AI, Automation, and the Illusion of Replacement

Gunvor Hofmo
“Se, jeg svaler min hånd i kjølig gress:
Det er vel virkelighet,
det er vel virkelighet nok for dine øyne,
men jeg er på den andre siden
hvor gresstrå er kimende klokker av sorg og bitter forventning.”
Gunvor Hofmo, Fra en annen virkelighet

“Imagination can run wild in all of us, but sometimes the imagination leeches into reality to become belief, an adoration of the mind without substance”
Robin Blair-Crawford

“Wild cognition, it seems, has (literally) no time for the filing cabinet.”
Andy Clark

Joey Lawsin
“The mind evolves in three ages: first matter thinks without neurons, then organisms think with neurons, and finally networks think beyond neurons.”
Joey Lawsin, Originemology

“The behavior is the answer. At minimum, it's information.”
Kierra C.T. Banks
