If you're a 'seeker,' you might think your dashboard onto reality is something to be transcended, but @bernardokastrup.bsky.social disagrees. Human perception is also part of reality, governed by the same archetypal templates as Mind at Large:

But could the very nature of perception evolve? Obviously, other species are experiencing the planet with very different senses to our own. What about our ancestors and future selves? Discussion tomorrow with @bernardokastrup.bsky.social www.withrealityinmind.com/the-evolutio...

It’s not a professional recording so perhaps more spontaneous and revealing than formal presentations tend to be. Shared with Shamil's permission:

Most people think that the sun and stars, the rivers and trees are what is 'out there.' @bernardokastrup.bsky.social contends that this is impossible - our experience is a dashboard about reality, not a window onto it. Summary of this conversation is here:

Is perception more like a dream or a shadow? Does the brain tune into frequencies like a radio, or generate a dashboard like a simulation? Tomorrow we discuss the nature of experience, and what lies beyond with @bernardokastrup.bsky.social

In Trika, raw emotions like love, humour, and grief can connect us to the absolute. But in this dialogue @bernardokastrup.bsky.social did not shy away from a deeply human response to the horror reality can contain.

Some people say the more you meditate, the more ethical your behaviour will become. So how come abuse is so common?
