NPC's

.. before there was a sun, there was a sea of stars ..

.. & before there was a coalesced, con gealed solid ego there were aggregates or skandhas, networks of magickal links not yet even in a circle; causes & effects of actual events in the world .. 

.. & we're all NPC's, in a sense, innocence; until we decide not to be ..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hello, hello.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So currently we have communication networks using various forms of physical transmission of signal.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

They use different wavelengths for achieving these goals and different media or mediums in which to convey the message from point A to point B.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We've been increasingly using shorter \ faster communication channels in terms of both data or information exchange as well as the movement of physical things that have mass and you know, you got to lift up and move around.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

These communication networks can be considered in terms of information without a holding form - just the mental content decoded on reception. So, a question is, as these frequency rates have increased, data rates have increased, if there was not, in prior days, just as there is now, a set of the population [engineers] who know how to manage and manipulate these information channels, physical information channels - - - whether or not sometime in the past there had been, unknown to probably most ]time-frame?[ individuals.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But somehow a communication network using very slow rates of data exchange over long ranges, basically like radio, but even slower than a radio rate of exchange, and using perhaps the dolmens and megalithic monoliths of semi\prehistoric times. Now, the data, the messages would have to be probably parsed out a little bit differently; wouldn't be in spoken language - I'd suppose - and would have to be some more generalized wave front spreading over the globe.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Where the early technologists would be able to broadcast out whatever radio waves, electromagnetic frequencies, they required to reach some goal or purpose.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Because that's what happens now, right? You've got stepping back, maybe about a century or so you got the invention of radio, the spread of radio, radio sets in the average household receiving broadcasts from centralized locations, to inform them of world events, maybe true, maybe not. And then different stories and ways of people looking at people and how they're portrayed in media to this day, just people stories, I guess, human interest stories.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So you've got these centralized locations of influence, or at least content production, and going out into the wider population. And these all take place over the electromagnetic spectrum.  back further to my great grandfather out on a farm, and how eventually they had TV and radio, but at some point, they didn't have any TVs, radios, phones, or any of that they're just people exchanging letters, communicating in person at local churches, and other establishments, what have you.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Were there broadcast stations in existence, even then, because it seems like somehow for some reason, communication media do really need to have a tie in to those electromagnetic frequencies and electromagnetic realm of subtle energetic fluxes that are not easily at least perceivable by the human frame, in their relations between objects, which surely exists since well, electro magnetism, electricity, magnetism, all those things are easily demonstrated to be real to the average individual.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

.. in any event,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

maybe there's something with that thought that these structures are antennae, mostly definitely antenna, no way around it, just this question is what frequency range they operate on and the form of the field in which they exist. So yeah, some of the signals should still be there operating in the actual real f*cking physical field..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“I, too, have been in the underworld, even as Odysseus, and I shall often be there again. Not sheep alone have I sacrificed that I might be able to converse with a few dead souls, but I have not spared my own blood .. With them I must come to terms when I have long wandered alone. I will let them agree and disagree with me, and listen to them when, in proving me right or wrong, they agree and disagree with one another. May the living forgive me that occasionally they appear to me as shades” 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

― Friedrich Nietzsche, Human, All Too Human: A Book for Free Spirits

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

.. once, there was a wily, old trickster; a con artist in the shape of a god called Legba ..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

..  encountering a sincere seeker on the path, Legba thought it would be amusing to help him find exactly what he sought, & thus cursed him, saying, "you will attain to the Way, oh yea, but only if you keep a record, to help those who might need some assistance .. to this end, may you henceforth be called shades" ..

.. at which the aforementioned, poor sap, thought as if in reply, "I wanted to be a Napoleon, an Oppenheimer, a Bernstein, a Ferrari even, but in the end I was merely (a) shades" ..

"For Tantric devotees of Shakti, just as for Nietzsche, the human condition is something to be overcome — it is a transitional state between the bestial and a form of life beyond the gods who no longer deserve to be set up as something above ourselves"

- Jason Reza Jorjani, Lovers of Sophia 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

.. in The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind, Julian Jaynes argues that back in the day, as it were, in ancient history, our ancestors experienced their own con sciousness, or perhaps reality itself, giving them orders or commands, which they could but obey ..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

.. & while a scientist could well ask a lot of questions about such a thesis, for the occultist, there is a sense in which it contains a profound esoteric truth .. indeed, it's not difficult to see a parallel here with the idea of NPC's (non-player, or non-playable characters, in a game), 'actors' in a play that merely react, without initiating conscious action per se ..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

.. moving along this trajectory, one might con clude that the will itself also evolves, from a merely reactive posture, to thinking through & initiating actions based on long term plans & schemes ..

.. looking at the world today, from this perspective of an evolving will, can go some way to explain why things might seem so "messy" .. William Gibson once said “the future is already here – it’s just not very evenly distributed“, and in a similar way, a free will to act in accordance with our higher ideals is also here, but not for everyone, equally ..

.. & so, we see that there are esoteric applications to con cepts such as that of the NPC, & a certain inner truth to that uncanny suspicion that some of these are NPC's ..

".. the sleeper has awakened .."

- Frank Herbert, Dune

.. you haven't thought it through ..

.. the end of fossil fuels, which even today we can see over the horizon even if we can't foresee exactly how far away it is, won't come about because of climate change, as difficult at it is for an avowed environmentalist such as myself to say that .. otherwise, it would have already happened by now ..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

.. it will come about because we've learned better (because they're less abrasive, less destructive) ways of engaging with the very material, the "building blocks" of reality, from which we too are made ..

.. in other words, it will happen when we realize that we aren't NPC's, & that, in causing harm, we're actively harming ourselves .. & that there are better alternatives ..

.. if u don't give a shit, you're bulletproof; 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

but don't take my word for it, unless of course u don't give a shit ..
