My dreams are always vivid and colorful and interesting, yes. On tests I always end up as “100% Creative”, so I always try to feign normal conversation but my brain is always in a zillion places at once that would make sense only to me. I just keep most of it in my head 😛
And yes, I noticed the subconscious emulation; 😛 I did this just for fun about a two months ago, flipping my profile pic, since I hadn’t seen anybody else do it., and I got tired of seeing myself looking in the same direction all of the time.
The context of these words; it was a reply I made in a group but I figured they were powerful enough to “stand on their own”, even if oddly so:
A philosophy group was talking about “Eastern vs Western Philosophies”… and I saw SO MANY PEOPLE waxing poetic about “How empty the West is and How full the East is” with all this adoration for Eastern mysticism.
So, I thought, “What’s an ANALOGY that will break the spell?”
a) complicated notions leading to a “oneness” feeling, well, I know the simplest technique that’s instant, so I’ll cut through all that BS they were going on about.
and
b) I will analogize “the universe flowing through you” to drinking and peeing at the same time.
Dramatic, caustic, a little bit mean… but I got tired of the fluffiness. I’ve practiced the stuff myself, I know it has merit via experience, but the whole POINT of it is, once you “get it”, you don’t need the surrounding philosophies anymore. You know it, understand, it’s a part of you, and you can get on with life utilizing it.
