"Questioning The Now, Revisiting The Past, Being The Future"

[@ALTERzeitgeistNOW @NOWzeitgeist]

"Now is the time when the old ways must be discarded. The old God model is dead, as well as the countless, now obsolete practices that the model itself brought into being. Instead, we each now have only ourselves, evolving ourselves as individuals, but in an alternative way."

[Seneca the Younger @SenecaQuote]

“All things find fulfillment by actualizing their nature. You don’t need to seek anything else. If you pin your happiness on anything outside of that, you won’t be free.”

- Marcus Aurelius

[Lucid Dreams @sanjabh]

“Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word happy would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness. It is far better take things as they come along with patience and equanimity.”

― Carl Jung

[ Art • “Mourning” by Tom Roberts ]

[Epictetus | Stoic Philosopher 📖 @EpictetusSays]

“We cannot choose our external circumstances, but we can always choose how we respond to them”

[Philosophy Quotes @philosophors]

“Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.”

— Søren Kierkegaard

[Lola 🥀⚘️ @LolaNeuroPhylo]

Your unconscious holds the imprints of your earliest experiences, the survival patterns you didn’t choose but that shaped how you move through the world.

Murray Stein on how Jung chose to listen to 'the spirit of the depths' rather than the 'spirit of the time' — something we could all perhaps learn from.

[Amoda Maa @AmodaMaa]

The ego longs for certainty. It wants guarantees, assurances, maps, and safety. Awakening offers none of these. Instead, it strips away illusions until you are left with the raw immediacy of this moment—uncertain, groundless, yet infinitely alive.

[In Libro Veritas @InlibroV]

“Man's Unhappiness, as I construe, comes of his Greatness; it is because there is an Infinite in him, which with all his cunning he cannot quite bury under the Finite.”

Thomas Carlyle

[Epictetus | Stoic Philosopher 📖 @EpictetusSays]

“God has entrusted me with myself. No man is free who is not master of himself. A man should so live that his happiness shall depend as little as possible on external things. The world turns aside to let any man pass who knows where he is going.”

[Arthur Schopenhauer @SchopenhauerNow]

"Reading is thinking with someone else's head instead of one's own."

[Chance Gibbons | Mindset of Stoics @mindsetofstoics]

Don’t explain your philosophy. Embody it.

[Zen masters @Zenm001]

The past will visit you in the present,

If you respond as you did in the past, the circle continues forever.

-Zen teaching

[Epictetus | Stoic Philosopher 📖 @EpictetusSays]

"Caretake this moment. Immerse yourself in its particulars. Respond to this person, this challenge, this deed. Quit evasions. Stop giving yourself needless trouble. It is time to really live; to fully inhabit the situation you happen to be in now."

[Laura Matsue @lauramatsue]

Had the realization the past few months after hearing endless stories of people who now have friends, lovers, husbands, wives, using ChatGPT to speak for them, even about the most intimate topics.

I have heard people share about the loss of critical thinking and loss of creativity from overuse of AI. It has slightly black-pilled me, yet at the same time I see a bigger picture.

Humanity cannot stop transhumanism, we will have to evolve and learn our lessons from it. It has spiritual lessons which mirror the fall of Atlantis. One thing we can be sure of is that we must develop our inner technologies as well.

Never lose your power to intuit, to imagine, to be creative, or forget the power of developing spiritually and internally, for it is our spiritual development that we are here for, after all.

With gentle care, thou mayst imprint 'pon the heart a mark eternal."
