I wrote this the other day, and it seems relevant to your question:

Our TRUTH will always be tested.

The human mind has placed guardrails around any and everything that is counter to the narrative we believe in. Symbology allows us to form agreements or beliefs towards things as simple as a word or a picture. We generate energy towards the things that feel good and create objection and dissonance around anything that does not.

Here’s an easy example of this:

God

Spirit

Consciousness

Energy

Source

The universe

Higher Power

Some will immediately stop in their tracks when they see these words without applying a lens of observation towards the underlying message. They’re no longer listening because the symbol or word you used created a trigger towards what they believe is correct. No one journey is the same. Lean not on ‘YOUR’ own understanding… Seek good in all things… build bridges and connections when faced with polarity. Push through resistance of triggers.

The human reason is incapable of providing sufficient rational grounds to justify anything beyond our level of understanding. Transformation occurs with the renewal of our mind. Our ‘truth’ can only be unveiled when we take steps towards things we may never see, walk towards it anyway.

The ability to observe without judgement is the highest form of intelligence.

Thank you for sharing. It does seem like you haven’t read about epistemology. I promise I don’t mean that in a condescending way, my experience has been that very few people have even heard the word before. I’m just trying to figure out whether my hypothesis is correct or not - that people on “this channel” are always folks who haven’t dealt with the issues that epistemology raises in their personal journey.

If true I’d highly recommend reading about it. Though it’s a bit… challenging. It took me quite a bit of deconstructing of my own previous ways of thinking. I’d love to see how what I understand of your epistemic approach changes or doesn’t through the process of reading about the historical evolution of epistemic approaches.

What do I know though.

Or perhaps I’ve already left that journey.. 😊 In exploring the depths of spiritual discovery, one encounters a realm that transcends the boundaries of traditional epistemology. Epistemology, rooted in rationality and empirical evidence, often falls short in comprehending vast spiritual mysteries. Spiritual awareness necessitates a departure from purely intellectual pursuits. True understanding comes not merely from evidence-based reasoning, but from tapping into the intuitive wisdom that lies within us. It is through personal experience, connection, and attunement to the means beyond a scientific lens that profound spiritual truths are revealed. So, the purpose of my note is more so in alignment with a path of spiritual discovery which ventures beyond the limitations of epistemology. It invites whomever is on that path to embrace a broader, more intuitive approach. It’s not for everyone. Most will not understand it at surface level.

In other words. Unlearn epistemology and get back to her when light speaks to you.

Good luck on that path.

Hopefully I understood what you mean here.

The lessons of epistemology should be found when one is ready.

In hindsight, they are the foundation and not the cap on a journey of learning.

Why does it require a departure from associating cause and effect? This seems more dangerous than beneficial given the immense human and AI penchant for hallucination.

Why do I care, what’s at stake: human lives, time with loved ones. Real people don’t do specific actions required to keep their bodies alive because of what can be reduced to problems of epistemology. They haven’t been able to figure out correctly what real world actions would keep them alive. This happens all the time, including people in my life. 🫂
