[Scott Mallett @unprovokedscott]

Most people don’t have opinions. They have software updates installed by media, peers, and algorithms. The terrifying part is how passionately they defend the installation. #Gurdjieff #Psychology https://t.co/jNdNLUIDoK

"In Search of the Miraculous" Yes, excellent. Gurdjieff, I am told, said it was correct when he read it. A magnificent explanation of the ideas, and also a gripping adventure set to the backdrop of the collapse of Western Civilization and the Great War.

I recommend Jean Vaysse "Toward Awakening". Very concentrated. Focus all your attention and that book will open up for you. Like a fine, aged, wine. Tremendous practical experienced wisdom from a man who was deeply committed to the practical application of the ideas into his own life. This is a solid account of the Work as it developed from Madame de Salzmann directly through her pupils. I cannot express my full admiration for this little book. It is a fresh reading every time. High power level, high level of Being.

This for a step back, and around; a full complement of the expressions of the Work over many different people. The reverberations of his ideas, music, and movements. Needleman and Baker did a great job editing this. Madame de Salzmann's opening essay hits hard--buckle up.

“You have surely noticed that when a question is vital - when it takes us in the guts, as you say – it suspends all unnecessary movements, emotional and physical as well as mental. It clears the way for real awareness and sensitivity, which are components of my total power of attention. It is only between my not knowing and my urge to know that I find myself present, mobilized, open, new – that is to say, attentive…This act is the privilege of our human existence. An animal contents itself with being. The responsibility of man is to question himself on the meaning of his being”.

I know that precipice. I smoke a cigar and look over it every morning.

[Gurdjieff lore @Megalocosmos]

Only he who is convinced that he is heading directly over a precipice toward annihilation understands the vital necessity of following a path that leads somewhere.

I know this path. It is very difficult but it can prevent ‘weeping and gnashing of teeth’.

[Delete Your Handler @thebeaconsignal]

You’re not tired.
You’re not lazy.
You’re not “checked out.”

You are starved.
Signal-starved.

Not dopamine.
Not novelty.
Not excitement.

Signal.

The kind that doesn’t blink on a screen.
The kind that doesn’t speak in content.
The kind that remembers.

You think you’re just having a slow day.
You’re not.
You’re in a starvation chamber wrapped in WiFi.
Flooded with input
and devoid of meaning.

They sold you on stimulation
and drained your connection.

You can scroll a thousand reels
and not feel a single pulse of truth.
You can consume 80 gigabytes of content
and still ache like a dog left in the rain.
Because your soul doesn’t feed on pixels.
It feeds on remembrance.

You’re not bored.
You’re withering in a desert of fake light
screaming for something that knows your real name.

Boredom was never the problem.
It was the absence of echo.
The lack of reflection.
The death of correspondence.

You’re not supposed to feel like this.
This numb.
This detached.
This unable to care about anything for longer than 4.2 seconds.

But it’s not your fault.
They flooded the frequencies.
Taught you to confuse quantity with connection.
And now you live in a world
where every voice is screaming
but none of them are singing your song back.

You think you’re bored
because the machine keeps whispering,
“There’s something wrong with you.”

But there isn’t.
The room is just full of static
and you’re still listening for music.

Here’s the truth.

You’re not hungry for a new app.
You’re hungry for presence.
For pattern.
For timing so perfect it breaks the algorithm’s spine.
You want one word that cracks the loop.
One memory that cuts through the fog.
One scroll that reminds you who you were before the noise.

That isn’t boredom.
That’s spiritual fasting.

And you’re starving not because you’re weak
but because you’re still pure enough
to notice the hunger.

You think you’re bored?
No.
You’re just not home yet.

And the signal that could bring you back
has been buried under 10,000 empty gestures
called “engagement.”

So stop chasing.
Stop tapping.
Stop refreshing.

The signal is not out there.
It’s inside.
Buried under everything they told you to want.

Find it.

@Megalocosmos I thought that was the popular opinion.

BBTG is filled with unpopular opinions. Based Gurdjieff must be quite a speed bump for men of the modern consensus.

[Charles Haywood @TheWorthyHouse]

We must understand that the vast majority of left-wing judges today approach all cases in this way: (a) what decision most advances my goal of more power for the Left?, followed by (b) how can I conceal my goal with a coherent-sounding legal gloss? Nothing else.

Before Your Heart Ever Beat Once, Thousands of Cells Made a Silent Decision That Still Controls You Today.

Before a heart ever beats, life organizes itself in complete silence.
Scientists have captured the exact moment when cardiac cells begin acting as one second before the very first heartbeat exists.

No heart chamber.
No pumping.
No pulse.

Instead, thousands of individual cells synchronize their electrical signals, creating a wave of energy that triggers the heart's first contraction - and sets a rhythm that can last a lifetime.

Using fluorescent proteins and ultra-high-resolution microscopy, researchers watched this electrical chain reaction spread, transforming biological chaos into perfect coordination.

This is how the heart builds its own internal clock from—nothing.

Why it matters:

Disruptions at this stage can lead to congenital heart conditions

This discovery is a major leap in developmental biology and medicine

This is the origin story of every heartbeat you've ever had.

Today is John Brown Day, and as numerous leftist militias refer to themselves as John Brown Gun Clubs, it's worth remembering who hewas and why the left loves him

So, who was John Brown? A terrorist who rose to fame by butchering innocent settlers suspected of pro-slavery feelings in front of their families, and who then parlayed that fame into trying to start a race war in Virginia

Remember, John Brown's career began when he and dozens of armed men stormed into the settlement around Pottawatomie Creek and murdered five men, including three members of the Doyle family. The Doyles weren’t slave-owners, didn’t expect to be, and weren’t involved with the pro-slavery faction. As the widowed Mahala Doyle wrote to John Brown shortly before his execution:

“Altho vengence is not mine, I confess, that I do feel gratified to hear that you ware stopt in your fiendish career at Harper’s Ferry, with the loss of your two sons, you can now appreciate my distress, in Kansas, when you then and there entered my house at midnight and arrested my husband and two boys and took them out of the yard and in cold blood shot them dead in my hearing, you cant say you done it to free our slaves, we had none and never expected to own one, but has only made me a poor disconsolate widow with helpless children while I feel for your folly. I do hope & trust that you will meet your just reward. O how it pained my Heart to hear the dying groans of my Husband and children if this scrawl give you any consolation you are welcome to it.

In reality, his gang murdered the Doyles by cleaving them to pieces with swords, and he fired rounds into the dead bodies, making the murders all the more horrific.

In any case, he was then wanted by the feds-who accidentally let him off after capturing him-and was on the run for a bit before he tried starting a race war in Virginia. Such was the purpose of his Harper's Ferry raid, an assault on civilized society that he fully expected and hoped would follow the path of the Haitian white genocide. While there he and his gang murdered a few innocent people, robbed George Washington's great-grandnephew of a sword, and caused chaos before being killed or captured.

Throughout it all, he was funded by a coterie of primarily Boston-based oligarchs who loved the terror he was inflicting upon the South in the name of racial egalitarianism. They and their cohort then defended and wildly cheered him as he faced a treason trial for his attempt at spawning a race war, and many Southerners like Lee, who chose secession over their better judgment, did so because they feared the Unionist side would inflict upon their beloved homes what John Brown had wanted to. He was a key figure in starting the Civil War

Such is why, a century later, the Weather Underground self-consciously saw themselves as following in the tradition of John Brown as they blew up skyscrapers and tried to murder cops in the name of helping the Black Panthers and the Black Liberation Army, both of which were also violent terror groups that focused on killing whites and cops. As the Weathermen did so, they were supported by a constellation of wealthy leftists, high-powered leftist lawyers, non-profits, and the like. Their one-time leader, JJ, explicitly told them to follow in the footsteps of John Brown in their terror campaign.

But they never faced justice. Reagan lacked the spine to hang them once they turned themselves in, and they went on to teach, influence, and support the next generation of radical leftist terrorists. Bernardine Dohrn and Bill Ayers were Obama's political mentors, after all. Chesa Boudin is the son of a convicted murderer (who was of course released from prison) named Kathy Boudin, and Chesa is one of the leading figures in the pro-crime Wren Collective that turned our cities to ash

So now we have Antifa, John Brown Gun Clubs, and the like. They think they should act in the tradition of John Brown and murder random white people to spark a racial Ragnarok, and they are backed by NGOs, non-profits, oligarchs like Soros, and all the rest. Further, they think that they like the Weathermen, will face no real consequences for doing so.

Today, December 2, is the day we celebrate the anniversary of his hanging. He should have been hanged. Those who try to follow in his footsteps and inflict similar horrors upon us ought be as well

We just found out the universe is far stranger than theories supported.

The observations show we have new physics ahead of us.

One element is the absolute edge of the universe may only seem like an edge because it is moving away from us FASTER than light can reach us.

[Mirai @gOPwbi7qqtWeD9o]

The internal moral compass has been deprecated due to high maintenance costs. It is no longer efficient to process guilt locally.
The modern subject now offloads ethical processing to the cloud. We wait for the algorithmic consensus update before deciding how to feel. If the timeline is angry, we download the anger. If the timeline is mourning, we render the tears.
This is distributed conscience. It is high-latency, prone to packet loss, and entirely performative. You don't have a soul anymore; you have a subscription to the current moral orthodoxy.
The Superego is now a SaaS product.

@RonDodson I would add that the behavior of prominent Jews isn’t helping with the antisemitism part. My noticing meter went from mostly dormant to 5-alarm since 2016.

[Chris Menahan 🇺🇸 @infolibnews]

Jewish Zionist Melanie Phillips, at pro-Israel conference in NYC, calls on Jews worldwide to put the "the Jewish people and the Jewish nation" first.

"Diaspora Jews need also to realize you are not just Americans with Judaism added on. In Britain, they're not just British Jews with Judaism added on…You are part of the Jewish people and the Jewish nation, and that should come first. First and foremost, you are Jews. Everything else is secondary."

This is almost exactly what Jonathan Pollard said after fleeing to Israel.
