BTW it's funny that you mention Angkor Wat towards the end of the pod. I was IN Cambodia when I started writing UCET, as well as when I started working on the idea which became nostr:npub1p6y243ek340jtqjr0qnqg2elkw3x5yn08kzhvxxxkejj486mlg9qtnwx3t. I visited Angkor Wat for the Spring Equinox 2023. The whole Cambodia trip was a TRIP in and of itself, and I definitely experienced something significant while I was there. This is not the time nor place to go into much detail, but I got a front row seat into both the light and the darkness.
Among those experiences - an ego death without the meditation, or the near-death experience, or the psychedelics. Witnessing women and children being forced to sell their bodies, and through that, their souls, made me realize several things. I touch upon it a tiny bit in the article, under the "WEAK MEN CREATE HARD TIMES" paragraph, but the at core of the issue is, well, as the headline implies - weak men. The fathers and (would be) husbands of those women and children, who have failed to protect and provide for them. The layer of trust, implicit in money, law & morality - eroded - which has definitely - if not caused, then amplified - the issue. Now I'm not saying the people who pay for such "services" are free of guilt - oh no, quite the contrary. That was another insight - for the first time in my life I felt that I could actually kill a fellow human being. But the thing is, the evildoers will always exist, no matter how sound the money, how perfect the society, how optimized the health. It will exist probably because some will get an evil, sick and twisted sense of enjoyment from it.
But it will mostly exist due to the innate difference in men and women. Think of how many children is one man capable of conceiving in a year. Now, how many a woman? So there will always be an imbalance between the sexes for romantic love, for intimacy - and since they represent the scarcity in this equation, they also make the final call or filtering, if you will. Now what this, unfortunately, obviously also means is that among the men that are culled, so to speak, some will turn to inappropriate ways to compensate... hence, protect and provide becomes paramount on part of the sane ones.
So... well I promised I wouldn't go into too much detail, but yeah, Cambodia was definitely an awakening experience in and of itself, and that's where I felt inclined to write down the ideas behind UCET, felt inclined to try to make my "career" related to Bitcoin (as it is a big part of what fixes the physical i.e. masculine realm on a societal level), and also to duplicate the principles from the insights I had gotten about the nature of reality onto my personal life and to the Bitcoin business idea that emerged. After all, real knowledge comes from experience. My life is the litmus test for my philosophy.
And I guess in hindsight I can also say that this was the beginning of me trying to figure out what the Divine Masculine actually means and how to embody it. Haven't gotten super far on that quest, but, again, I feel that the basic premise is the same Trinity which I present in UCET, and which probably applies to the Feminine as well: physical health, mental health, spiritual health. Or - exchange health for wealth, in the final analysis it's same-same because they are intrinsically linked, just like the different planes of the Trinity itself are linked to each other.
