Awesome. This part set me back. I'm thinking Damn Shane, are you connected to me in the Ether??I honestly believe that meditation is not right for those who are naturally good at meditation! I am that type of person who can literally go back into my thoughts for hours on end without moving, until they altogether cease to be my thoughts and become some kind of inner theater that operates like self perpetuating, free energy machine. For me, it is better to get to the gym and do something physical than entertain these kind of states of mind, existence, or whatever it is.
Since early 2020 when I transitioned to working from home, I've had this guilty pleasure of a shower thought/fantasy/mental exercise, which I know deep down isn't the best use of my time, but.. I've been obsessing over the idea that when I die, before I move on to the next life, I want to spend some years in a V/R where I can pause/rewind, browse scenarios, learn, explore, etc, all in a world populated NPC's, but advanced enough that they only way i could be reminded it's not real is the drop down menus I can pull down by blinking or something.
Alan Watts has a short 5min bit called "What if you were God" which demonstrates why any omnipotent being would eventually plant it self on an Earth-Human like existence for the thrill of unknown/undetermined experience..
But I want to play out a bunch of fantastical stuff a god would try/experience before finally jumping into the unknown of a next mortal life.
I've even argued in my head, that there's a good chance when I die that I'll jump right to that place outside of time where I can see all the memories and places that would remind me that i already know everything that i would wish to find in such a VR escapade.. So my thought was to jump directly from this life into that VR place and have some human fantastical fun before I recall any of that infinity crap.
