Meaning is not found in actions
It is not of this world
Meaning is a realization
It is a state of being
It is in the sensation of connecting with the undivided unity of all
The essence of that unity is meaning, truth, beauty, and love
We chase that connection
But it is already always right there

I consider it rather sad that we talk about "consuming" media
It implies that we just take in what we are given, making it a part of us as is
I much prefer to say that I "study", "engage with", or "absorb myself in" information and stories I come across

There are two kinds of magicians
The masters who seek to bend reality to their will
And the fools who see magic in every twist and turn of life but never seek control
I am a fool

All we have to do is realize that our awareness is eternal and exists in unity with all

When we are fully absorbed
In a story, a task, a game, anything at all
that thing becomes our entire world and all else around us, even our memories and worries, fade
The suffering of living in a world of separation disappears for a while as we experience unity

All we do is grasp out for love and connection
Even our most destructive acts arise from a desire to eliminate what stands between us and connection
And what we want to eliminate is often parts of ourselves
But connection is never found in destruction
only in realizing that separation is confusion

If we reflect on our desires
and our goals in life
we inevitably find that most of them were adopted from others
We saw what our role models wanted and grew to want the same
But we can look deeper
and find the root of our desires within

Our ever-unfulfilled search for home
is a deep spiritual longing
We can continuously chase this home in places, people, and teachings
Or find it in the realization that all is a connected unified whole. And in the truth that I am always home while my separate self will never be

The scientific method is an amazingly powerful way to effectively predict how the world will behave - and how to efficiently control it
It does not help us find truth
Truth, if we can understand it at all, is found within

If all the universe, all consciousness is in truth an undivided whole
then suffering explains itself
To have a world filled with disparate things and beings we have to see false separation
And that false separation is confusion
Unity imaging itself ripped apart

Psychedelics generally reduce brain activity
and yet lead us into complex, hyper-real experiences
Near-death experiences occur as the brain ends
and yet they are reported as epic, wonderful, hyper-real journeys
What does that say about the connection of brain and consciousness?

I suspect that AI will lead to a move away from technical perfection and slick presentation in all modes of art
Authentic connection with the inner world of another
and meaningful spiritual essence may come to eclipse technical criteria
I believe this would be a very good thing

Just before dying, dementia patients sometime regain their memories and clarity of thinking for a little while. This allows them to say goodbye to their loved ones

Even in the most charitable understanding, freedom merely gives us the opportunity to do what is meaningful and fulfilling
However, that would require us to know what is meaningful and fulfilling. And we obviously do not

Generative AI has been a dud in almost all industries
But it can generate songs that are virtually indistinguishable from human made pop music
This is surprising, but shows clearly just how formulaic and polished to meaninglessness popular entertainment has become

Beauty hints at transcendence
Beauty is universal
Flower mean to attract and are beautiful to us
So are the feathers of many male birds
Beauty is in the whole
Parts of a flower or animal are unremarkable at best
But seen as a whole
Beings, scenery, even galaxies
reveal beauty

But so will repressing desire
The solution is transcending desire

Fortunately, most people accept nothing essentially separates us from one another and that we are equal in dignity and worth
However, this has lead some to conclude that we all must have essentially the same thought-processes, emotional landscape, as well as physical and intellectual abilities
