I am excited to announce the release of my book:

The Ancient Way of the Mind: How Modern Thinking Blinds Us From Wisdom of the Past

The book focuses on the nature of the self, and how our relationship with the self influences our ability to understand reality.

Alfred Whitehead saw civilization as the extension of operations we perform without thinking. AI continues that arc. Many fear it will take our jobs; however, proper work should be reevaluated. Attention is worship. Perhaps abundance is about having time to remember the soul.

Attention is worship

[Sydney Bright @brightmindsco]

Biological life absorbs the Sun's energy and transforms it in accordance with thermodynamic law. Hone the mind, heal the body, and you align with that cosmic flow. Bitcoin does the same for civilization: honest energy accounting helps us act in accordance with the divine.

Fellow gold bug gone Bitcoiner, Larry Lepard, joins us for a timely episode of the Hosting Bitcoin Podcast!

Yesterday, Bitcoin rallied as the U.S. Treasury announced increased support for the long-term Treasury market, with federal debt approaching $40 trillion.

TL;DR: Larry’s thesis is playing out in real time.

Growing debt leads to greater intervention and more liquidity. As fiat continues to be diluted, people increasingly look to sound money as a safe haven, and Bitcoin’s fixed supply becomes harder to ignore.

@LawrenceLepard brings his trademark conviction and passion, while also sharing a more personal side and his vision of an abundant future through Bitcoin.

Notable moments:
2:19 Larry’s Road to Bitcoin
9:39 Surviving Bitcoin’s Brutal Drawdowns
22:31 The Breakthrough of Digital Scarcity
27:11 A $100M Amazon Mistake
31:04 Bitcoin: The Global Money Network
35:00 Why Bitcoin Is a “No-Brainer”
48:25 What Happens When Fiat Fails?
52:57 Why the Future Could Be Brighter

🎙️ The full episode is out now.

What happened to us building great cathedrals? What happened to us devoting ourselves to something greater?

There does seem to be a spiritual aspect to money.

[Sydney Bright @brightmindsco]

We are using our minds to construct an ivory tower, but in doing so we are becoming mentally, physically, and spiritually unwell. The computer is an opportunity to free us from this burden.

[Sydney Bright @brightmindsco]

Ancient societies did not build religious and spiritual systems because they lacked scientific understanding. They did so to help us remember a truth about our world that becomes harder to directly experience as our minds fill with intellectual thought and reason.

[Sydney Bright @brightmindsco]

The world is currently transitioning like we did between 1914 to 1945.

In today's transitionary period, I see a movement away from classical biology to the study of quantum biology.

The sacred was never a proposition to believe; it was a condition to undergo. When the experience of the holy became rare, the explanation took its place. Faith without silence is akin to opinion.

[Sydney Bright @brightmindsco]

Your brain does not perceive reality. It generates a helpful fiction from the signals of our world.

More rumination equals more noise. Meditation is not wellness; it is signal clarity.

starting with The Ancient Way of the Mind by @brightmindsco

a book that explores the Calm Pond Hypothesis: the idea that the thinking mind which built civilization can also veil us from directly experiencing reality, and suggests that Bitcoin is not only a tool for economic and political freedom, but for mental freedom as well.
