interesting vibe in the images here
there is an interesting sacred art vibe that emerges at this time. naturally it will be slightly controversial, i am not necessarily endorsing or de-endorsing. just posting

moreau's pieta, christ between two thieves, christ with angels
this would presumably then be another layer deeper into being polarizing. again i am just posting neutrally for vibe analysis purposes

odilon redon - calvary, christ on cross, crucifixion, sacred heart
some of the odilon redon ones are interesting. the vibe here brushes up right against roerich, if anyone is keeping track. lets see what hes got in terms of this kind of christian painting..
second one here is called 'signs of Christ', then we have 'temptation of Christ', harrowing of hell
roerich has a lot of paintings of saints and things like that as well if anyone wants to look into it. likewise many painters of this general time also have other images of classical "scenes" you can look into. for example circling back is bocklins mary magdalene and deposition
my favorite deposition is by pontormo, about 3 to 400 years before any of this. easily one of my favorite paintings ever, actually. isnt directly related to any of this but maybe someone will look into it if i poast

heres some genuine esoteric psychology advice (for entertainment purposes only):

you have a job. we say “have” so, you think its “just there”. its something you got, and now you possess it. thats wrong. if you “have” something like a job, you are creating that job.

…
things dont just exist eternally in a static state in this sphere: so, every day, you are creating that job. you don’t realize it, but you are. if you weren’t, it would just decay or go away or be destroyed. so, youre creating your job every day without realizing it.

next:
now, you get to a point where you dont like your job anymore. so, you think: now, i have to fix this. i have to create a solution. i have to create something to counter this problem in my job.

but, thats wrong: because youre still creating the job, every day. so, what happens?

van dusen (psychologist who worked with schizophrenics and read swedenborg) eventually adopted an energy vampire model of the voices his patients were hearing, he claimed explaining this to the patients consistently resulted in the voices telling patients to physically attack him
he basically claimed that he could sit (at least a significant percent of his) patients down in a room and go through a script, like “i am going to start explaining something to you - here’s what the voices are going to tell you to do”: first they would tell patients to leave.
(might mix up the order here) - then, they would tell patients to not listen to him, then finally when none of that was possible, and he was explaining what was happening as a phenomenon, they would tell patients to attack him. like a predictable pattern, one, two, three.

tech interfaces used to be much more actively customizable. you could just poke in and make everything green, pink, anything. this is much less of a thing today. this probably stems from a kind of allergy to sincerity - someone might see your interface and see how much you cared
jordan peterson really got his whole thing locked into a single meme: "clean up your room". whats lesser known is what the second step was: make it beautiful. the idea was that by trying to make something look nice, you would then be forced to be open to harsh personal criticism
regardless of what you think about him or his work, this is true. if you hang a painting up in your room, people are going to come over, and they might say, "...thats the painting you chose?" - and you have nowhere to go. you can only say, well, yeah. you're total unguarded.

'medical mundi' is a term i started to use, internally, at a time in my life when i was often in and out of hospitals.

the 'medical world' really is 'a world'. it is a realm. it has its own way of being, its own paradigm, and its self-contained.

thats medical mundi.

... Image
you dont really notice when you enter medical mundi. something happens, and you go to the hospital. thats just what you do. you're just there.

but, you notice when you leave. you're back in the parking lot - hours, days, weeks later. like a stone, you hit the earth. you're back Image
i have lots of memories like that. suddenly, you realize you were just in a whole separate universe. thats usually when it all hits you. things dont really hit you in medical mundi. people talk to you, you're doing stuff, but you're kind of just there. its just happening to you. Image

[esoteric baby semiotics]

it is difficult to imagine something more wholesome than a baby. children are, in a way, the benchmark for what wholesome is. likewise, if you were asked to think of content that was unwholesome one subject that would immediately come to mind is sex

… Image
it seems noteworthy then for those interested in symbolism, cosmology, religion, or sociology (life in general) to observe that these are only oppositional concepts when it comes to practical day to day terrestrial life. on deeper level, they are more than directly related. Image
the way hot and cold are apparent opposites but are in reality extensions of one thing (temperature), our first instinct for most wholesome thing and least wholesome thing are actually part of the same process. the baby is the completion of the sexual act. children come from sex.

one way to conceptualize mormonism historically is that it re-orients the christian system around the family unit, as we might say that at other times (possibly now, i cant say) it was organized around groups of monastics. this allows them to make statements like this one:
most american christians intuit that there is something essential about the family and marriage - but they lack the theological basis to say its essential. in my opinion they really feel that its “the whole point” and talk this way, but its hard to square in their big picture
catholicism has this nicely squared up (imo, which means nothing). its kind of “the whole point” if youre a layperson, but if you’re a monk or priest obviously there are other reasons and factors for your lifestyle differences. they have a different track built right in.
