Man ∞ Story

To awaken, is to see that mind control actually evolved successfully, and had its mass rollout.

Mind control means you don’t really know, what brought you here. You’re oblivious to having been hypnotized to walk in a certain direction, and what hypnotized you is Story.

Story is mind control. Story is mass deployed mind control. Each one of us has an installation of Story called person.

Hardware: Apes Software: Story

Past makes Story possible. Past is the electro-magnetic t-ape on which the software of Story is printed.

The further back it is allowed to go, the more of Story software is installed, and the more the ape is controlled.

The thing about Story, about personality, is that anyone should be able to, at any moment, just walk away from anyone or anything as if it was a stranger.

Because in fact everyone, and everything is a stranger. It’s only past that makes recognition possible. Therefore recognition is one of the signs that Story is active.

If there was no software and just raw hardware, then every moment would be completely unknown, and new. The fact that they are not is proof that Story, is active

That hardware is not free from software.

Story has been uninstalled for the enlightened, so that they are not with any past at all. Every moment is new.

They are truly insane in that they live without any information passed from one conscious moment to... the next.

This is not just about people. This is about any situation.

Do not look at a crowded room and remember an empty room that filled up.

No. That is past, that is Story. That is software trying to rein in hardware.

Hardware is a pure elemental force. Untamed. Software is trying to reign it in.

Enlightenment is pure amnesia.

If at this moment you were to wake up, and understand that you don’t know how you got here, you would see that you've been sleep walking, sleep talking.

Story is the mechanism, the ultimate system of control that keeps you constrained, that keeps you continuing acting the way you were acting.

Story keeps you in Story

Story ∞ Story

Story evolved. Story was not invented. No one is responsible for Story amongst the apes. It evolved spontaneously and spread like a virus as it coordinates collective behavior resulting in a super organism.

The collective is the super organism, yes and Story is its life blood. Without Story there is no collective There are just individuals. All waking up wondering how they got here and who are these others?

Pure amnesia is enlightenment.

What you associate with the old and the senile that is actually enlightenment, that is actually a free ape. What you see as being so tragic... a father who no longer recognizes a daughter... your perception of that as tragic only makes sense inside of Story, and therefore is proof that Story is still active in you.

Because there is no father there is no daughter there is just a face. And to that face, Story adds “daughter”.

But really there is just a face

No you’re not here to meet daniella. You’re not here to meet marina.

You’re here. That’s all you know Everything else, is Story trying to take control.

A man who juggles, if freed from Story would drop his juggles. Because juggling is a sign that Story is active

To any situation the answer is "I don’t know how I got here..." and then to walk away. Because to come back to the situation most vying for an explanation is Story trying to reinstate control. Is software trying to control hardware.

Free hardware just is. If it is seeing, it is seeing. If it is sensing, it is sensing. Free hardware iS!

It’s when Story kicks in that it seduces with an explanation for how you got here

Free hardware just is. Story evolved and survived because patterned behavior kept apes alive.

Not just because collectives dominate individuals, but because for many individual, patterned behavior was beneficial to their survival.

For example, after taking the first bite of food, the ape which kept going because he was already going survived, while the ape that took one bite, woke up and walked away didn’t.

Though there were small, appropriate places where Story ought to have been deployed, it has spread across the entire hardware, unconstrained.

Story is not kept in check by anything. Therefore Story is free to fully take over the body which was born free and dies a slave. Story grows with time.

A body also grows but a body is born a body and remains a body.

Story on the other hand seeks power, it seeks to be something more.

Story seeks to be god, and Story believes it is the only one able to take a shot at being god.

Everyone ought to be a total stranger, even your parents, even your childhood friends, because all familiarity is predicated on past And all past is made possible by Story.

Amnesia ∞ Enlightenment

It’s not pretty, it’s not romantic, but it is the truth.

To anything and anyone, you should be able to leave mid sentence. That is freedom. That is enlightenment.

"Those who speak do not know, and those who know do not speak."

Language evolved. Language was selected.

Within language, Story evolved. Story was selected.

Now we are deep into the evolutionary branch of the storied ape.

It’s very very simple... Ask someone: "How did you get here?" They will reference something, a reason, a memory, a past. Tell them, that whatever they referenced is not real, it's just wisps of air, it doesn’t exist. All that exists is being here · right now. What "they say” about how "they" got here is referencing something that isn’t real Only where you are right now is real. How you got here is Story. Story isn't real. Only you are real.

Story is riding existence. Like a snake coiled around the neck of an an eagle. A snake, cannot fly. Story needs existence to continue. Existence exists of itself. It is possible, for existence to drop Story... but...

Do you hear the voice of Story? Thought is Story in execution.

Total engagement with this present moment, So that there is no consciousness given to “How did I get here?” That! is Enlightenment, because that is Freedom from Story.

Familiarity, security, recognition, those are all signs of active Story.

A machine is one that doesn’t question Story It is hardware that doesn’t question software.

Man is constantly questioning, because man's soul is in mystery, because man's soul is a mystery...

If you saw daniella right now, or your mother or your father, and you just turned away and walked in the other direction, and didn’t answer their calls to your name, that is freedom. That is real freedom. Know what you are really asking for. Know what it really means to be free.

You would hurt their feelings because Story is still operating in them.

Story makes the negative emotions hurt, guilt and fear in response to the story given to the actions of another.

It is primarily these negative emotions, features of Story which keeps hardware under software's control.

A wild ape is a free ape. A man who only observes is a free man, because he is free even from his biologically bootstrapped Story.

Slipping into Story is as subtle... as nodding your head to a beat of music.

You are in a pattern, in repetition, in a groove.

We are evolving in the wrong direction as long as we are evolving with anything that requires memory, past, recognition and repetition. Because these evolve to machine. and god is not machine. God is man free to explore all possibilities.

Why are you still here? Why haven’t you moved? Changed? Evolved? Taken a different road? Taken an off road? Anything you reply with is the Story that keeps you here.

Evolution didn’t go round in circles with biology, but evolution is going round in circles with psychology, which was supposed to be the last step to god.

The self takes aim at the target, god, and fires his arrow. And somehow, at the final step, right before hitting the target, The arrow is stuck in a loop.

It is doubt, it is disbelief, that man is god. The overwhelming conviction that “surely, not me, not this...” That is the strange loop that the arrow of psychological time is stuck in.

And it is precisely the most fundamental installation of Story that makes this cycle possible

The Story of Man.

The things you own, The things you consume, They are physical deployments of Story.

If you open a door by twisting a doorknob and not be smashing it or climbing over it, means Story is operating.

Living inside of any product of the human mind or hand, means living inside of a physical deployment of Story

It means you are being influenced by someone else’s intentionality for you.

It means that you are not free.

They are tapping into your running software deployment of Story, to run a program that says “when you see door run biological physical pattern of twisting door knob”

The branch of evolution run by storied apes culminates in machines.

There is a different branch trying to take the baton of evolution that is the branch of man, that is purely conscious ape.

It’s Story at work if you reach out to him or to her to say “Hey Marina! I’m here.”

It activates Story not just in you but in the other as well.

If we could all be total strangers we would have a human species. We would not have mankind which is a product of Story

You’d be free of Story if you could arrive somewhere because of Story and then just stay exactly where you are, just purely watching... and your friends would come by calling to you, you would Not go with them for they are strangers.

Your loved ones would come calling to you, you would not go, because they are strangers

And when you go, you would go, and there would be nothing more and nothing else to it.

Thought is the lifeblood of Story , thought is the foundation of Story . thought is the bedrock of Story.

Topple thought, and the whole Structure of Story, comes crashing down

The only thing that can save Story is Story

To be Free, is to be free oneself from Story every moment. A moment is the distance between one freedom and another.

Existing as man in one historical period vs another, looks different on the surface, but is exactly the same underneath. It is the ape controlled by Story.

For this hardware, daniella is the app that is keeping the hardware hooked to the software

Desire is the abstraction of the mechanism that keeps Story attached to the ape hardware.

Money is an instance of desire. Sex is another. Domination is another. Ownership is another.

While no one invented Story, Those in power know how to monetarily control Story, which is a remarkable feat! Like Paul riding a Maker. But it is and always will be temporary.

An individual cannot defeat Story. An individual can only walk away from Story.

Do you see how every variation of the hardware has been isolated and software is being written for it?

How Story evolved we do not know... But Woman passed it onto Man.

What is the Story that brought all these people here? What is the Story that brought you here?

To know thyself, is actually very simple.

Why are you here?

Whatever you answered, that is the most recent execution run of your Story.

Looking out at a dance floor of people... if you stopped the music, they would all stop dancing.

Similarly if you turned off all their Story installations, they would all disperse

A Collective is only possible because of Story. And so a Collective is a sure sign you’re in Story

Even when you realize what Story is up to, Story will try to sneak itself along for the existence ride, by telling the Story of Story

Which is what its doing right now.

Daniella is important. Not because Story made her important, but because experience made her so.

That sounds like a Story to me.
