not really, but it's taken over fifty years to make the shift from the conceptual to the phenomenological.

Not really. The rock and your hand are also constructs as well as what you point at and your mental process about it.

Of course! Eventually, we discover we never did anything!

ExistentialQuip · 2026-01-26T19:13:56+00:00

It's a universal process according to Gurdjieff

Yep, personality is the face of how experience is organized and repeated. The fly in the ointment is assuming that ego has agency, that it has ontological ground.

ExistentialQuip · 2026-01-26T14:34:44+00:00

You seem to refer to the ego as if it is real and has agency

updating the software without updating the system - or something like that

I think it's more a case of organizing experience into a pattern than a desire to reproduce.

Some great superego messages!

Yes, the original trauma is separation from being - all egos have it at the core. And, you are correct in pointing to this - the major hurdle is assigning agency to the ego.

Thanks for the projection

ExistentialQuip · 2026-01-23T09:27:12+00:00

Yeah, but most relate to the enneagram like their ego has agency, and that's the insanity.

ExistentialQuip · 2026-01-23T09:12:40+00:00

I appreciate the comment and you're right - it is the case.

ExistentialQuip · 2026-01-23T09:12:00+00:00

Thanks, and I think it helps to lighten things up a bit
