Living the Inner Life

“Once the inner life is established in realities, no corruption of society can touch it; but until it is so established, it can never be safe.” ~Manly P. Hall

@nosilverv If the ego ‘feels humiliated’, it is a clear sign it is still in control and thus, there is no spiritual growth taking place.

Does spiritual growth entail humiliating the ego 🥹🥹🥹

@rebirthofthewo1 @MichaelButtonX Was about to post the same!

@MichaelButtonX I don't have a theory, but Godfrey Higgins is my go to guy.

What's your best theory for the construction of Stonehenge?

“All over the world today aggressive leaders, dictators, so forth, are destroying people. They are corrupting ethical systems. They are tearing down religious convictions. They are doing everything possible to make the private citizen helpless. They want to take away from him any security of his own inner life and make him completely dependent upon a highly organized society which has the power to destroy him at any moment it chooses.” ~Manly P. Hall

Stay tuned for our upcoming ad campaign, “We’re the VC who doesn’t sneer at your idea.”

@rentbotsTX Thank you so much…great move by Southwest! Let’s hope all the airlines follow suit and ban them all.🫡

We just got robots banned from Southwest Airlines. You’re welcome 🫡 Yesterday we flew our humanoid robot Stewie from Las Vegas to Dallas on Southwest — something we (and others) have tried and failed multiple times because batteries are always the issue. This time we cracked it. Custom lithium pack, spec’d just under the legal limit. Stewie boarded, buckled up, and flew like a completely normal passenger. This morning a Southwest employee leaks us the internal training they just pushed to EVERY flight attendant companywide. Mandatory. Urgent. With a photo of Stewie on the plane as the example of what to look out for. We didn’t break a single FAA rule. Not one. They just weren’t ready for us. Robophobic? Arguably. The robots are traveling whether the airlines are ready or not. 🤖✈️

Loneliness does not come from having no people about one, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to oneself.

@StuartHameroff @SidTheArgent And, blocks any sense of time. My 19 hours ‘under’ went by in a flash.

Anesthesia also blocks inner thoughts, default mode activities, memory formation etc.

@AeonByte Thank you for putting this together…I really enjoyed it!

Looking forward to this:

@Megalithic12000 Nor have we realized why massive stone structures were so important to build.

It's 2026 and we still cannot fully explain how certain massive ancient stones were moved and placed.

Sad to learn my former colleague at the PRS and forever mentor, Dr. Stephan Hoeller, has passed after a long life and influential career. I will always remember our lively conversations and listening to your stories about Manly P. Hall. Peace to you.

@pmarca Actually, the history of civilization is a state of almost constant war, separated by brief periods of anxiety, hope and despair.

Counterpoint: Pretty much the entire history of civilization is smart people trying to explain things to dumb people and failing.

People create absurd problems so that they have absurd problems to solve. The real problems can then be safely ignored.
