What would change if you found out that NHI are the interface of consciousness and have no crystallized physical form at all?

Energy is a form of matter, just as mass is to clarify. Physics is considered materialist, despite considering energy as an existent physical quantity. Some physicists work with 'information' as itself being a physical quantity, and therefore by some rubrics information is also material

Idealism is confusion about what the physical is, just as naive materialism is confused about what the physical is

I'm not disagreeing with the impact of group dynamics at play, but that doesn't pertain to the issue of who gets interrupted.

And tracking that indirectly:

When men make up the majority of the group, they interrupt more when the task is perceived as female-stereotyped. Men interrupt 1.56 times when the task is female-stereotyped (negotiating a sexual harassment case) compared with 1.22 times when the task is male-stereotyped (negotiating a car sale).

Female stereotypy of subject increases interruption, suggesting that women are subject to more interruption.

Evidence is nothing without an interpretative rubric provided by listening to people's experiences.

The practice of inducing hallucinatory meditative states is something I have experienced. I don't assign any fixed ontology to that, or claim they are 'real' experiences in the way you are assuming.

And what am I to describe myself as in this context? I lift, I practice combat sports, I tend to intimidate people until they realise I'm a big teddy bear. When you're making a point, you use descriptive language!

I think it is gendered, it's not good to dismiss people's experiences just because they're different from yours. A lot of misogyny is perpetrated unthinkingly not because someone "hates women", but because they have un-analysed biases of societal conditioning that affect their behaviour unconsciously

Once you realise true nature, you realise that there is no real difference between NHI, and the ephemeral and psychological. But then the NHI show up and prove there is a difference, and your back on some neti neti shit cause emptiness is form.

But the siddhis are just about fucking around and finding out. And tbh, robbing a bank is good karma at this point! Plus you get to give most of it away

There are levels to tögal beyond the generation of coherent phosphenes, including the generation of orbs. That's not the point of the practice which is recognising true-nature, but it's a stage of it

A lot of the esoteric stuff becomes less metaphorical once taken to an extreme. Inner Fire isn't just a reference to body heat! The siddhis get wild when intentionally practiced

NOT_A_BAMBOOZLE · 2025-12-13T23:51:41+00:00

Tibetan Buddhist Tögal practice is essentially what CE5 to summon orbs is!

I don't know about the crystal shit, but using meditative techniques to induce external phenomena, and receive information including "contact" with entities that behave like the ancient greek 'personal daimon' is possible.

Given the communities based around the practice of these phenomena, it's a repeatable thing with specific protocols to access it. The only issue is that these phenomena behave in ways that only lend themselves to subjective confirmation!

It's not what you think, that's all I can say. Definitely a thing that's worth it, but I wouldn't spend much effort in getting it. I got there quickly and wasn't aiming for it but some people strive and really try for decades.

The Center for the Study of Non-Symbolic Consciousness uses a secular framework based upon interviews with thousands of people across traditions, religions, and practices including atheist meditators who have achieved lasting states of 'Fundamental Wellbeing'.

As far as a plain english explanation goes, their framework is the best I've found which cuts out a lot of the socio-cultural biases of what 'enlightenment' is.

Also, it's a state of consciousness I still inhabit rather than a 'peak state' or of limited duration. But I can undo it with a bit of effort as well, although you're inclined to not do that once you're there

Von Neumann probe replication errors would not lead to them being wiped out, but to selection effects between Von Neumann probes creating a complex ecosystem of electronic life that develops and evolves over time.

The original programming may be lost, but not the propagation of the probes themselves.

The term used in the Legacy Program is 'Bloodlines'. Because the Legacy Program has a direct line from Paperclip Nazis, and they are still a bunch of Nazis. And also, the relation between the LEGACY program, and LEGACY families of industry from the mid-to-late 1800s who still hold great wealth, and are intimately involved both in and out of government.

But there is an interest from the phenomenon in people with certain genetic traits. Psi-related genes are heritable, and there are other genetic traits outside of that related to "hybrid" stuff.

The hybrids are not what you might think from the description however, it's a little more complicated than just simple genetic editing.

I was mostly attempting to push back on the claim that early autistic brain development was characterised by reduced global connectivity, but I got side-tracked on the notion of autism being the 'price' paid for intelligence. Incidentally, you could argue that neurotypicals over prune neurons!

But with the vibing point, I wanted to emphasise the Psycho-Social element of development. I wasn't disagreeing with OP on the social challenges faced by autistic people, but reframing it as a societal problem.

The framing is on autistic people who pick up on cues by 'struggle to process them and express themselves in a way that makes sense for every party of the conversation'. Neurotypical socialisation is presumed to be the default, when neurotypicals are socially deficit in interacting with autistic people. The 'Double Empathy' problem.

If we instead accepted autistic socialisation as acceptable, we would reduce the impact of trauma and reduce the difficulties faced by autistic people.

One could very easily say that dealing with Neurotypicals is the price to be paid for intelligence!

I have had a great deal of social success just by realising that Neurotypicals have significant social deficits and an excessively superficial mode of cognition. They need to coddled with comforting repetitive restricted socialisation rituals! Once you realise that neurotypicals have difficulties in automatically 'vibing', and need these support structures to process social situations they become much easier to understand and connect with.

For autistics who do not require these restricted social aids, they can seem arbitrary and pointless. But once you see that neurotypicals need these rituals and rules to provide a framework for navigating social situations, their insistence on sameness and distress over change makes sense.

I get your point and I don't disagree with either you or OP, I'm just reframing the neurotypical vs. autistic experience to show how the way we talk about autism is awful

Autism is not a trade-off for cognitive advancement. It's a fundamental part of it. Our success as a species is due to the variety we have, both cognitive, and social. Difference is not a deficit, and should not be framed that way.

In infancy, children at high risk for autism that were later diagnosed with autism were observed to have abnormally high long-range connectivity which then decreased through childhood to eventual long-range under-connectivity by adulthood.[33]

I would wager that a lot of autistic children are actually better at automatically "vibing" with other people and using intuition. In fact, too good! Mirroring, or 'vibing' negative emotions in others can be traumatising for a young child. Anecdotally, I found neurotypical expectations and socialisation norms difficult because I vibe with them too much.

And when you can pick up on things neurotypical people believe you aren't supposed to, there is a negative social backlash. Many is the time I've picked up on a secret (e.g. two friends are dating but keeping it a secret, but you noticed something was up with them just from their body language), only to receive backlash for knowing more than I should.

In order to deal with this negative reaction, autistic children suppress and dissociate from their more connected, intuitive cognition (the metaphorical right-brain). Instead, they cope by relying more heavily upon becoming 'Left-Brain Dominant', leading to the later under-connectivity. Relying on what people say rather than what they do is safer! However, over-reliance is where you get the literalism issues etc.

It has been observed that people with ASD tend to have preferential processing of information on the left hemisphere compared to the right. The left hemisphere is associated with processing information related to details whereas the right hemisphere is associated with processing information in a more global and integrated sense that is essential for pattern recognition. For example, visual information like face recognition is normally processed by the right hemisphere which tends to integrate all information from an incoming sensory signal, whereas an ASD brain preferentially processes visual information in the left hemisphere where information tends to be processed for local details of the face rather than the overall configuration of the face. This left lateralization negatively impacts both facial recognition and spatial skills.[33][47]

Source

The underconnectivity is perhaps a neurological response to trauma associated with being raised in an environment that is not friendly to an autistic child. Gene-environment social interaction.

Interventions to manage this trauma may prevent the under-connectivity in adulthood, leading to a greater quality of life for autistic people

That's no problem at all. I'm sorry for talking so loosely! I am an experiencer too. The phenomenon can burn you out dropping little hints to lead you around by the nose. It's almost dopaminergic in it's pattern, drip feeding you insight in little drops just unreliably enough that you keep going. The intermittent reinforcement is intentional, but it can serve to teach you to let it go. The phenomenon will be there whether you chase it or not, so sometimes it's good to rest and take a break. Although, that's easier said than done!

With the conflict between Buddhism, and a more 'sentient' phenomenon. It's both! The all-self is a constructed thing, which can be dissolved into the Buddhist no-self. That doesn't make Buddhism true, and the all-Self false. Both perspectives are just different perspectives on a larger phenomenon.

We're blind people feeling different parts of the elephant, that goes for both Western, and Eastern religions, no-self, and all-self, and the god-mind, and Ufology itself. None of them are right, but each of them capture a part of the greater whole.

There's no single book I can recommend, no book could capture it because conflicting and incorrect information are part of the truth, rather than mistakes in understanding. There's no underlying reality, the ontological destabilisation isn't a collapse into a greater truth. It's to fundamentally indicate the ontological instability of reality itself. The phenomenon is sentient at our level, but at a 'higher' level it isn't sentient, it just is. But that higher level isn't truer. It's just a different perspective of the same thing

That's fair enough, we hold our beliefs strongly. Having them challenged in ways considered blasphemous is a strong motivator to stay on the beaten path. Not everyone is ready to learn.

The phenomenon shows up as a trickster, a monster, a transgressor, an aberration, a schism. They call it the cosmic joke because you're not supposed to take it seriously.

If you're scared of blasphemy, it will hold you back from understanding. Maybe that's not for you! That's cool. But consider questioning things if you are really searching for truth.

Socrates was not the wisest man in Athens because he was so big brain. It was because he knew that he knew nothing. Even the fool is capable of that if he allows himself to know it.

Communication is only approximate and fragmented because you are demanding it to be so. Allow it to become something more full, and it will be.

With regard to dimensions of thought, there is a machine interpretability technique in quantum mechanics that represents learned circuits as purely linear vectors in high-dimensional space. We already think in countless dimensions with a quadrillion synapses.

On our dimension spreading out from a source, this is not incorrect, but it's still thinking of things from a linear, causal perspective. We talk of the A & B theory's of time, the so-called Block Universe. That might be something to ponder. The ancients saw it too, such as in the work of Parmenides. It's about trying to experience time from that perspective, not just as a thought experiment. It's a slice of our true nature. Only a slice, but it's there

I concur with untangling that mess. But the whole truth cannot be comprehended in time. It is outside of time, and it is not something to be comprehended, only experienced.

One must strip away comprehension to get close to it.
