summary - Annick de Witt takes the reader on a journey of discovery of that looks at the nuances of the complex set of entangled crisis we face today, by referring to the idea of worldviews - She shows how the quagmires now emerging are the result of interplay between three major worldviews, traditional, modern and post-modern and how each represents a partial truth that denies the partial truths held by the others - The article takes the example of Trumpism and the MAGA movement to illustrate, but the same analysis could be extended to the many different cultural worldviews found in different peoples around the globe - In particular, with Trump's recent decision to bomb Iran's nuclear facilities, tensions between the traditional Islamic culture and the West's traditional, modern and post-modern segments of society are again on the rise - The insightful analysis culminates in the proposal for an integral worldview that includes all three but transcends each one - It may be useful to introduce Annick to Greg Henrique's Unified Theory of Knowledge (UToK), - https://www.unifiedtheoryofknowledge.org/ - Gregg works with John Vervaeke that Annick has cited - Regarding Bayo Akomolafe's short LinkedIn note on the word "worldview", I respect both Annick's detailed analysis as well as Bayo's interpretation and look forward to a comparative analylsis of these two perspectives around the word "worldview" - I am also in the middle of annotating Lisa E. Maroski's book, Embracing Paradox, Evolving Language, which is salient here as well

Indyweb dev - new Plexmark - analog affirmation slider - while reading the passage I was annotating, I realised that I was in agreement with a lot of what the author was articulating. However, I have no way to indicate this match because it would be too much - this gave rise to a new Plexmark: <br /> - Have an analog control slider for each sentence that indicates - agreement on one side and - disagreement on the other side as well as a - 'don't know' button. - This gives a running indication of resonance with your own salience landscape - This can then be used in conjunction with the Indranet - If there is an indication of strong agreement, then the reader may have strong motivation to investigate that author's mindplex, - especially if there is a strong salience mismatch between the author and the reader, indicating a possible learning event

Retrospective reflections - (See below) adjacency - sacred - relationship with - free - open source - what is your relationship with the sacred? - this is the same as asking - how do you feel in your time of solitude and aloneness? - do you feel deep connection and a sense of not being lonely while you are alone? - to be alienated if not to feel disconnected with others - as it is to be disconnected with the ceaseless sacred that continuously surrounds you, from birth to death

• I propose that the post-modern worldview should be renamed
• why?
• it is a name that is dependent on the second major worldview, modernism
• while the first two worldviews have autonomous names, the third, postmodernism is not autonomous but depends on the second
• the word integral is a good candidate to replace it

• it means integration of both traditional and modern

• two central ideas of Deep Humanity praxis fit into these three worldview

  • progress
  • death awareness
• worldviews can be seen from a progress framed perspective
• progress is a movement from traditional to modern
  • conservatism focuses on the traditional pole while
  • liberalism focuses on the modern pole
  • postmodernism is a universal, cultural retroactive reflection on the relationship between both

• death awareness is a major focus on traditional knowledge systems but

  • postmodernism can definitely benefit from integrating it to provide
    • an integral, inclusive approach that deals effectively with
      • the meaning crisis faced by a secular, modern perspective that has
        • rejected traditional religions without replacing it with anything substantive

• June 27, 2025 - modernism - objective reality - validation - example - personal experience - beeping electricity meter

  • my wife woke me up in the morning and said that the electricity meter is beeping again.
  • I couldn't hear it because my heating isn't as good as hers
  • I trust her when she says this
  • I walked out of the bedroom too go downstairs and turn it off and a soon as I got around the corner in the bedroom, I can hear the beeping sound
  • The easiest explanation for these two different experiences is that the is an existent objective reality which each of us experienced differently ( Occam's Razor)
    • the electricity meter was indeed beeping
  • The post modern. explanation would likely revolve around quantum mechanics but if far from simple or obvious

new trailmark - summary to review - the word "review" may be a better trailmark word than "summary" - At this point, I will replace "summary" with "review" in the case of book or article reviews

review - Lisa's book is an insightful convergence of an important but ignored subject, the experiential intersection between language and consciousness. - Her understanding that language plays an important role in constructing our reality leads to a bold and novel proposal, especially salient at this time of global poly-meta-perma-meaning crisis. - She proposes that we individually and collectively experiment and explore creating new words and language structures that transcend the limitations of our existing language - If patterns of language usage traps us in outdated conceptual paradigms, then breaking out of these may be challenging, if not impossible, without the creation of new linguistic and language structures. - From a Stop Reset Go and Deep Humanity perpsective, Lisa's proposal for practical experimentation with constructing new languages to unleash new forms of expression is very aligned to Deep Humanity BEing journeys - As I read and annotate Lisa's book, any potential linguistic and language BEing journeys that her words inspired will be recorded for posterity

Addendum - note from journal - 2025, May 8 - reflections on Lisa's book - asynchronous communication is only one half of indyweb     - the other half is asynchronous REFLECTION AND SYNTHESIS - Effective timebinding requires both     - Annotation captures interpersonal shared ideas     - journalling captures ours own unique synthesis only emerges from asynchronous reflections of our existent associative network of ideas and the newly ingested interpersonal ones - Annotations capture the novel and newly inputted interpersonal ones     - but annotation currently only applies to hypothesis - it needs to expand to realtime meetings such as zoom calls, emails, socials media comments and socials media chats in order to be complete - Until now, there has not been a medium with sufficient set of affordances to unleash the affordances potential in language itself - While digital media has existed and rapidly developed for the past 5 decades,     - employing and leveraging it to unleash the full potential of language itself has not ever been conceived of until the concept of Indyweb arrived - Indeed, we could make the claim that the indyweb is a foundational human technology on the same order as language itself because it completes language, revealing its empty ( shunyata) quality, thereby     - uniting it with the universe itself -  From the unlimited potential of the tacit,     - the limited forms of words emerge, both are 2 sides off the same nondual coin     - and unleashing the full , unrealized potential of language - It is the provenance aspect of the indyweb that provides an automatic trail of all our learning journey, making both the     - individual and     - intertwingled collective evolution of ideas available as records for. timebinding posterity

• when we feel in a good state of health and wellbeing and absent of any disease
  • we feel when everything is within harmony in our temporary state of being alive
• Any disease shows us how the diseases-free state is so fragilely constructed
• disease-free is an and condition of many subsystems working together harmoniously -aspectualizing is creating
  • a perspective,
  • a word
  • an idea
• the greatest freedom of afforded when we are free of all perspectives
  • for that is when a new perspective can emerge
• When we cling to words and ideas, we cling to perspectives and aspects of the whole
• The teaching of one taste is the highest and most subtle teaching - equal taste - and easiest to be misinterpreted
  • because we are anchored in the world of many different tastes and of measurement and scale,
    • where some things are greater than others on our scale
