IMO fixation on the noumenal, that the physical world is inaccessible, is a dead end.
My perception is the opposite. Being trapped inside one universe is the dead end. Abandoning the universe lets you experience a multiverse. You can use magic and meet fantastic creatures like dragons and gods. Traversing the mythic plane, the world between worlds, is the route to greater knowledge. I never slowed down learning from this realisation. The pace just keeps accelerating.
You lost me. But imagination is rad and cool, and knowledge can be accessed through reason, and reason takes all different forms.
It almost sounds like you’re talking about mysticism but you were just trashing mysticism. In any case, mysticism such as hermetic, qabbalic or taoist mysticism is a fantastic way to learn practical dialectics. Lots of people act like they understand it but clearly don’t. Or don’t apply it evenly which is kind of the same thing.
But are you just talking about pure subjectivity, experiencing the self as the self experiencing itself? Kind of an unconventional and interesting way to search for truth and knowledge.
It’s not a joke. It’s just me dumbing down my spirituality to the level comprehensible by realists, because you said you were having trouble understanding it. Everything sounds dumb when you phrase it realistically, because reality is dumb.
You don’t understand my philosophy, don’t pretend to. I extended you the courtesy of a well thought out detailed and i think pretty intelligent response, and you talk to me about otherkin and dragons, supposedly because you think im too stupid for your spirituality. Enjoy your discord server.
I don’t talk to you about otherkin and dragons because I think you’re stupid, I talk to you about otherkin and dragons because I thought you were interested in understanding my metaphysical views. I interpreted your statement that you were having trouble understanding my conversations with dragons as a request that I make my speech more approachable. I failed to anticipate that you wanted me to pretend you understood perfectly after you said you were struggling and continue to be opaque. If you want me to ignore you when you ask for help and speak in riddles instead, I can certainly accommodate that wish.
I think I understand better now, thanks for clarifying. The otherkin discord server comment was so out of pocket I thought you were fucking with me. It actually wasn’t a very helpful example, but I think I understand your other comment better now. Sorry for getting aggravated, its hard not to be made to be cynical by the internet. Thanks for the clarification, good luck on your journey.
