Jamie, I so often enjoy and appreciate your risking ability to interpret the maps and clues that woo the imagination to witness the imaginal, with the gumption and familial welcome to engage it. Your words are trellises. And as I climb, I often catch glimpses and fragrances where I can leap boldly, knowing if I fall I will land in the arms of tangled vines to begin again. And I love it. My own writing here, Regenerative Intimacy to Save The Earth, is pollinated by the heights your words have gifted to me. Thank you brother.
Once again, thank you ...a "PARTICIPATORY UNIVERSE..."...reminds me of the Playa principle of
..." Participation
Our community is committed to a radically participatory ethic. We believe that transformative change, whether in the individual or in society, can occur only through the medium of deeply personal participation. We achieve being through doing. Everyone is invited to work. Everyone is invited to play. We make the world real through actions that open the heart."
There is more to unpack here but LOVE the confirmation that we OWN our experience...and this makes us deeply responsible - perfect !
only one I was remotely describing in related writings was Teilhard's Omega Point which is very specifically one where individual uniqueness is emphasized/preserved and collective humanity in its full expression is achieved. That seems a bit diff than the techno-Borg of the bros
The other night I had this experience/understanding about templates and how we acquire "information" - but in an embodied sense that seems to fit with what you're describing here. Earlier in the day, I'd had a conversation with a friend about Ireland, our mothers and our families. Both were/are difficult Irish-American women born in the early 30's (psychologically and spiritually damaged). What I was shown and viscerally experienced was about the templates (for being a human being living on planet earth) we received and didn't receive from them and the whole complex experience of receiving. It then opened out to encompass all of us (humanity), showing me how we're all walking around with wounds/holes in our downloaded templates including in our DNA and our biological processes - like swiss cheese people.
The mother part was important because the templating starts in utero and then it's from our primary caregiver that we receive the bulk of those templates that give us some kind of innate knowledge about how to be a person - like through breast milk, heart to heart/body to body connection. Obviously mothers are just the beginning and we template from many sources over time. But if the mom/dad/caregiver has fucked up attachments from trauma or whatever, we download faulty templates which throw us off and cause us to connect to other faulty templates (or which make it easier and cause us to connect to other healthy templates). Since we develop this way, we’re both prone to taking in other people’s stuff and leary of receiving because of the fucked up templates. Still though, because of our capacity to entrain through energetic templates, we can replace messed up ones and pass those on - and because we have established pathways from whence our templates have been acquired and through which we've passed them on, the ones we repair or replace can be passed through time healing generations past and future.
My friend and I both received a lot of faulty templates, but we've been working at healing them/acquiring new templates for most of the last couple decades and it's fascinating to see how this has shifted and continues to shift our family dynamics and how it ripples out from there. What I clearly saw was the larger ripple through time. Maybe that's where the 7 generations idea comes from.
Very soaring speculations. Thank you, Jamie, for a well-expressed trip into metaphysics land. One question though: where do you get the notion that the data rate of ordinary conscious awareness is as high as 120 b/sec?
that number was from Stealing Fire (so 2016 era research). 60 bits is conversation, 11 M bits is non conscious processing. Actual amounts (120 or more or less) vary based on studies
When we really pay attention, what is the most we can afford.? The highest I could come up with in 1990s was 30 b/sec. Even 120 b/sec is minuscule compared to the subjective glory of this experience and the immense value we attribute to it. Thanks for the Stealing Fire reference.
Thanks for your post. You should definitely check out Universalbiology / New Medicine based on the findings by Dr. Geerd Hamer. Otherwise you miss one of the most important findings of the last century.
There are a lot of assumptions in the field if genetics, which you don’t seem to question.
I just finished writing a book, an intro to systems science/complexity: Seeing: A Field Guide to the Patterns and Processes of Nature, Culture, and Consciousness." seeingfieldguide.com From this worldview, all is continually organizing in relation to everything else. Structure is only a snapshot in time. The Universe and everything we experience are manifestations of the same "systems processes" -- networks, feedback, self-organization, emergence, cycles, evolution, ontogenesis, etc.
In my book, information is a systems process and the chapter on it was the most difficult. To finish the chapter, I had to stop reading new journal articles I researched probably 50 to 100 sources. In the end, after months of research, I defined "Information" as the input that informs--literally forms a system/systems. Every system is organizing to exist and that organizing depends on the activities/changes in its environment. Every systems depends upon information. Make sense?
Thank you. I couldnt help thinking about the Annunaki theory, and how “they” spliced our DNA with theirs. Those memories we access in altered states so often have extra-terrestrial vibes in them! My gods we no so little!

I think I’ve asked you before if you’ve read any of the Conversations With God books? It’s all in there.

You have a gift to be able to explain ridiculously complex topics in a way that even my old tired brain can start to grasp it. Thanks for this!
Totally mind blowingly brilliant speculation based on long certified intuition and data ....
How do you compare the singularity you are describing to the one the Tech Bros are proning for?
