Philosophical Speculations

Same here. I have a FB account, but without being a member of the group it doesn't work. Right, and if either of you feel like joining the group at some point, I was somehow made into an admin and can admit you :) Although I throw a lot of flack at such groups and the way most members approach ...

I'd like to share a Facebook post from the Anthroposophy page here. The post itself is about how the distinct modes of engagement between the AI engines of GPT and Grok are felt from the author's perspective, which is interesting, but I am sharing it here simply because of the fantastic animated ...

Let's start with something else. This following exercise may sound very trivial, even insultingly so, but I just want to make sure we are on the same page concerning the inner experience of cognitive activity before continuing. We can forget the triangle image. Pick a random point, say, the corner ...

All in all, if the people looking for answers continously demonstrate, that they re-frame their questions in such a way to appeal to their own pre-constructed views of the world and refuse to even consider, for a moment, to abolish them, the discussion should necessarily stop. And not go into ...

Such a comment becomes transparent when we try to feel how he had already been dressing up mental dolls in the phenomenological (Goethean) and esoteric (e.g. Aurobindo) domains for a long time. That is exactly the symptom of living consistently in doll mode within the domain of esoteric ...

With these examples you have given Kaje, I suppose our idea of finding relevance in the essays and dressing up mental dolls is highly misaligned . MM and Eugene (who are quite similar, in this context) stand out to me as stellar examples of those who find the content of phenomenological inquiry and ...

This said, in conclusion I agree things should not be forced through deception or through customization and monetization, as you say. What I was thinking about was actually on another register. I have in mind examples of people with a keen interest in inquiring about the nature of reality, and also ...

I don't think that is quite correct. I am also speaking of difficulties before the apparel is tried on. The fitting room is the act of imaginatively living through the exercises with a certain degree of enthusiasm, not only with the passive intellect that finds the concepts 'highly relevant'. This ...

In general, nothing can be objected to these remarks. And yet, your "been-there-done-that" reply doesn't seem on-point to me. When I say that I don’t have a clue why the essays tend to leave people indifferent, I don’t refer to the universal evolutionary obstacles to the inner path, and their key re ...
