for - key insight / quote - the reified ego is the root cause of all the problems in the world - we reify because we don't know who we REALLY are - Donald Hoffman - All the egoic stuff that we do causes all the problems in the world because - you don't know who you are. - You're creating this whole thing. - You're not a little player. - You're the inventor of this whole thing. - You have nothing to prove and - you don't need to be better than anybody else. - They're also master creators. - They're creating entire universes that they perceive as well. - And my own take on on this is that - you and I are really the same one reality - just looking at itself through two different headsets, - two different avatars and having a conversation. - And maybe that's what is required for this one infinite intelligence to sort of know itself.

• When we don't believe we can be this, we limit ourselves
  • That is, we suffer from self-inflicted poverty mentality
• When he says we are the one same reality,
  • he is echoing the common spiritual teaching of the holographic metaphor where
    • the one nameless is distilling itself in so many separate identities to know itself,
  • Similiar to many spiritual teacher's teachings
    • Alan Watts referred to it as God playing Hide and Seek with itself

Is Ulysses a heroic poem? Or, is it selfishness?

Veille à ce qu'il ne manque pas d'alcool à la maison.

fexe+el (fexe) v. -- search/seek by all means.

bañ v. -- refuse, resist, refuse to; to hate; verb marking the negation in subordinate clauses.

ñàkk v. / ñàkk bi -- vaccinate / vaccine (not sure exactly how this fits in the sentence if it's even the right translation -- perhaps it has to do with surgical alcohol rather than drinking alcohol).

alkol ji -- (French) surgical alcohol. (I'm certain this is also used for the type of alcohol you drink -- but sangara is probably the most used term).

Answer: to question of what Raj is up to when he tells Paul that Maitreya (Christ) will make himself known on March 14 (yesterday in the timeframe of this chapter).

The footnote explains that Raj was making a point with Paul to not look outside himself for answers. They were expecting a life-changing announcement by a being revealing himself as the return of Christ. That's huge and Raj was playing them - telling them outright this was going to happen as proposed by Benjamin Creme.

This could feel like total and deliberate deceit on the part of Raj. The teacher must really know what he is doing...

The lesson - don't seek for answers outside of your Self.
