Re: The Game Loop: Part 7 Meditation

Thanks for the clarifications! I’m glad the volume control is not so important. It occurred to me that this fine-grained 'volume control' aspect could also be illustrated with another exercise, like what we discussed before with tracing the circle (or turning the wheel) in ever-smaller increments. ...

Re: Understanding Steiner's Philosophy

A few final comments on this topic: Pleroma: 1. I do see that, im not saying that there is not necessity in the shaping of the human imagination to this lucid and mathematical degree (or denying that is happening). All i am saying (and where I diverge) is that I dont think other faculties had to be ...

Re: An Occult Education Through Chess (Part 1)

The chessboard-section nested metaphor works very effectively as an image of the fragmented flow. It’s a literal picture within the picture, and at the same time it escapes its spatial character, by elucidating the link between flow fragmentation and myopic misunderstanding of its lawfulness. I a ...

Re: Understanding Steiner's Philosophy

Here are a few comments and responses on that thread : This anti-Christian ‘pagan Anthroposophy’ pursuit is extremely misguided and dangerous… perhaps I will share more thoughts on why later, but just thought it should be mentioned frankly for now. Pleroma:I’d love to hear why you think it’s dangerou ...

Re: Understanding Steiner's Philosophy

Here, I would say, is the most concerning trajectory for Anthroposophy if it takes hold - https://open.substack.com/pub/pleromaunderground/p/anthroposophy-reborn-the-pagan-emergence?r=rlafh&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web It is particularly concerning because it is so well articulated and argued ...

An Occult Education Through Chess (Part 1)

I am sharing an essay here that I just posted on Substack. Due to ongoing issues with my sprained wrist, I felt it was too cumbersome to transfer the whole thing here with all the necessary formatting and so on. Therefore, I will simply provide the link for anyone interested in checking it out ...

Yes - omit, sugarcoat, or whatever else you want to call it - I think it will serve as a great inner exercise!

Re: Understanding Steiner's Philosophy

It's a bit disappointing that you are unwilling to take my objective remark - you disagree with the censorship - seriously and objectively. I often sugarcoat things in everyday life, but I don't consider it very good or respectful to sugarcoat things with fellow students or proponents of spiritual ...

Re: Understanding Steiner's Philosophy

I am also not surprised that you remain silent on my second takeaway, likely for the reason that you are yourself becoming entangled in the framework of the Anthroposophical Society, therefore your freedom is now limited but such cultural and relational constraints. I am not expecting a reply on ...

Re: Understanding Steiner's Philosophy

1. The proponents of Steiner's racism have no idea of what they are doing. They are not interested in understanding Steiner's worldview, but because they live the academic life, they pretend they can judge him with authority. They do damage with their publishing. Agreed, this certainly seems to be ...
