Entheogenics and communicating with plant spirits

This piece is a continuation on my piece on dealing with depression, which you can read here.

Preface

I am tired of not speaking about this subject, as I have found these things to be very helpful for discovering myself and healing from deep trauma, and even physical illnesses.

I feel it is important to discuss things that are considered taboo, in hopes of breaking more of the blockages that surround discussing these topics. More this writing is about sharing my experiences, and hopefully shedding light into subjects of controversial matter, to help break them out of the realms of something that should be shunned upon.

And to cast more light into the deeper meaning of what is to communicate with plant spirits, as I walk the fine path between the spiritual and the physical, that is my role in a way.

Breaking communication barriers

George Orwell wisely said something along the lines of: “Control their language, and you control the people”.

This can be said about the topic of entheogenics (literally meaning “generating the divine within”), referring to plant medicine that is used in a healing and spiritual context. 

Many of which have been made illegal or patented by big medicine companies.

Making things illegal can effectively prevent discussion about these topics, as people are afraid to speak their mind in the fear of the consequences. This is a very effective form of mind- and nation control, as those things that cannot be discussed or thought about, could as well as not exist. 

I believe in free speech, free expression of anything and everything if its for the highest good. This is why I also feel it is important to discuss even those things which are taboo, illegal or just blocked by man made rules.

Rules that are completely made up by other people, people who are no more intelligent than you and are and in no way better than you. Rembering again the wise words of Terence McKenna: “Nobody is more smarter than you”.

With entheogenics, I feel the main reason these plants have been made illegal, is the fear of the controlling factions, of people discovering natural healing methods, our true connection to nature and each other, and ultimately, the fear of the realization that we all humans are one.

When we realize that we are all one, nations, rules, laws, politicians, kings and queens disappear, their power dissolves. It has been a very effective method in controlling our thoughts, but no longer can this method survive, as the truth is coming here more powerfully now, more enlightening and ultimately along it dissolving all that is un-truthful.

It is time to bring that to the surface which has been hidden and again reveal our connection to the nature and to the cosmos around us.

This writing is part of what has helped me re-member this connection to everything and all that is. Part of what has helped me discover who I am, to heal those wounds deep within me, and ultimately to remember who I am.

I also want to state out that currently the most powerful tools I have in my arsenal are meditation and living in the moment, and trusting the process of flow. Entheogenics have definitely helped me break down those shields inside me to see this way. Sometimes you need dynamite to break down hard walls.

‘Here be dragons .. ‘

I do not recommend anybody take any entheogenics without consulting somebody who knows more, as there is the very real possibility of getting more lost than finding yourself. I have had to find that the hard way, not with mushrooms, but especially later with cannabis, and seen also from friends around me that it’s very possible to lose part of yourself in the process, especially if you want to go too far and desire to know too much.

It’s not something you can easily do, as natural plants usually give you a warning if you are venturing too deep, or pushing it too much, but out of ignorance you can always not listen to the warnings and push deeper than is good for you. I’ve been on the edge couple of times, luckily my intuition has been in most cases sensitive enough to pull back and not venture too far, but I have sensed that there is the definite possibility of losing something, experiencing something that cannot be un-experienced and seeing “too much” at one time.

It’s beneficial to have humility and respect when approaching these plant teachers. Respecting these plants and their spirits, and looking into tradition for clues how to approach this healing, but not blindly following tradition either, as in the western world we don’t have the same context as many people who still natively use these in their culture have.

In this text, I am exploring and sharing experiences with my relationship with the plant that helped me realize that there are such things as truly spiritual experiences, and which helped me remember that I am the Universe, not just an powerless experiencer going through a ready made world.

Food of the Gods

I am talking about the children of the earth, those small mycelium rooted friends of us, known better by their street name magic mushrooms, Psilocybin mushrooms, or Food of the Gods, as termed by the late Terence McKenna. 

My first experience with plant medicine was with mushrooms. One day a good friend came over, and told me he just happened to have some. I was 26 then, I didn’t have any experience of any mind altering substances other than alcohol and some cannabis I had tried with some friends couple of times, but not knowing how to inhale properly and not resulting in a proper experience.

I was intrigued, I had no idea what the effects of eating such things was. I felt a somewhat mystical feeling, I had heard that people eat them and feel funny, see colors and such stuff, so I was interested, why not, let’s do it.

We agreed to do this with a group of friends, most of who were first timers also. We did not really prepare in anyway, except we knew not to eat heavily before and had made sure we had nowhere to go that night.

Eating a small dose of dried mushrooms, maybe something between 1.5 and 2 grams, resulted slowly in a state where my whole reality was changed, and I could see things from a completely new angle. I’m not going to go into the details more, as other people have written much better about the effects, but I want to share one profound realization I had.

Universal connection

I found something very deep inside me. Something Universal, something that was connected to Everything. I felt that I was this Universe that I inhabited, instead of just living in it.

I still remember that moment vividly, what I saw and felt, a blue starry nebula with a dark starry background, filling my vision completely behind my eyelids, and realizing, “I am this”.

I was then still struggling with dark thoughts, thoughts of suicide and escaping everything, and I was this very rational person, relying on logic and my intelligence on most things. This realization gave me a grand feeling of hope, that I’m not just my thoughts, that I am not alone, that I am something greater than I was used to thinking,

That I am not just just this small human, but my existence has meaning and it is meaningful. The very profound action of just being able to exist felt very important and unique. That I don’t have to try any harder and that I’m perfect. Just by being, I am complete.

If I am all of this I am experiencing,  how can it not be perfect ?

Questioning everything

This was the most memorable revelation from that experience. That there is so much more than I had been told by everybody around me. It was like somebody had taken the veil off from my eyes for a while, showed me a glimpse of what is really true in this world and then put the veil back on.

This sparked the question:

‘What the heck is going on here actually ? How can I feel like I am the Universe, when I am just a human ?’ 

This was what I would call my first real spiritual experience. I got very interested in spirituality, religions and shamanism, read a lot of books and writings on the subject, scoured through online forums seeking answers to my questions and wrote down pages and pages of thoughts on the subject.

Now that I’ve had experience with other entheogenics also, and a more holistic view of the whole process, after picking up daily meditation and writing about these things, discussing, experiencing, reading and digesting the things I’ve gone through over 10 years, I’ve come to a sort of conclusion for now that psilocybin mushrooms are teacher plants.

Cap-hatted teachers

More teachers than healers, although great healers too, but their role seems to be more of a information carrier, presenting us a way to connect to their vast mycelia network of consciousness, and their deep knowledge they have developed over millions and millions of years of existing within the very soil of our planet Earth and even other planets and galaxies.

On what information do I base this ? On direct communication and discussing the topic with the various mushroom beings I have been in contact with.

I say beings, as they too are conscious lifeforms, like you and me. But they are very different, their physical body not resembling anything of ours, but more like a network of connections on a physical level, and we are just digesting their sexual organs, their means of reproduction that pops up to the ground level.

They have told me directly where they come from, shown me in visions. The spirit of the mushroom can communicate with you, and you can communicate with it. Something not really talked about in many places, but it is definitely possible and even preferable, as the dialogue helps the healing and teaching process.

Opening up the healing interfaces

By letting go and allowing the plant spirit to heal and teach on all possible levels, for the highest good of yourself, is a revelation that came to me later in my journeys.

First I was sort of a passive experiencer, communicating with the plants along the journey, but not doing it in a more conscious way right from the start of the experience.

Later I realized that by allowing consciously the plant to heal you, on all possible levels and interfaces, opening up all the methods that are for the highest best of yourself, by saying this aloud to the plant in the beginning of the session, miraclous things can happen.

By consciously opening up the interface and allowing the healing, the plant can work much more directly with you and let the healing through in much more efficient ways. It’s like opening up the firewalls of your body and soul, it requires trust and letting go of all the shields, but according to my experience it’s definitely worth it.

Different teachers

Some of these beings have shown me their intellect in ways that feels like they are much, much more intelligent beings than we humans, even thousandfold. I say some, as there are younger and older mushroom spirits, as there are young human souls and old human souls, with various levels of methods and experience under their belt so to speak.

The teaching and healing seems to also be relative to what you can accept and input on your own level, and also on what wisdom the particular mushroom spirit has gathered during it’s development as an soul. Some young souls can appear naive, trying to help you their best, but not really grasping the process, and some old soul mushrooms can be truly marvelous in what wisdom they can impart on you and what healing methods they use.

One particular old soul mushroom healed me from the very edges of my whole being, not only on a physical level, but I could feel it working on all of my astral bodies at the same time, starting from the very edge of the existence of my soul, and somehow this healing then reflected back to my physical body.

That felt truly amazing, as the mushroom being somehow transferred my whole consciousness to feel how it exists during this process, in order to achieve this. Encompassing my whole being in the way it felt life, allowing me to transform into this mushroom for a while somehow magically. I could see and feel the mushroom spirit directly in front of me, feeling like I was this spirit, not separated and experiencing, but becoming it, allowing the plant to directly take over for a while and seek out the places where it could help me for my highest good.

This particular experience felt very alien, very technological, like experiencing and transforming into a being one hundred thousand times more intelligent than what I’ve ever experienced, feeling directly what it felt to be this particular entity in some very direct and odd way.

I was totally humbled by the experience, and the realization hit me of how limited our human experience still is compared to those who have truly went beyond this physical dimension. I’ve never felt anything like that before or after.

Mushroom origins

Some of these beings have told me that they have travelled to this planet from a far away place, shooting through our atmosphere, and taking root within the soil of this planet at a time when there still was no human life even on our planet. Mushroom spores have been scientifically proven being able to withstand the high pressure, heat and coldness of being able to fly in here from space.

Explaining to me how their intelligence through the mycelia consciousness network spans multiple planets and even Universes. Showing me how these antennae networks are all connected, and can communicate telepathically, transferring information from the very edges of our galaxy. Spreading galactic wisdom and cosmic consciousness to humans and other living beings here on planet Earth.

Conscious communication interface

For this kind of direct communication be possible, my theory is that the mushroom has developed the psilocybin molecule, when ingested orally metabolizes into psilocin, which closely resembles the serotonin molecule, our natural neurotransmitter.

The psilocin is thought to bind onto the same receptors in our brain as serotonin, allowing somehow a direct interface and way to communicate with us through the receptacles in our prefrontal cortex.

I speculate that the mushroom has developed this molecule also to communicate with other plants around it in nature, as it is highly dependent on trees, soil and other vegetation to give it food and the proper environment to grow. It has been proven also that mushrooms can clean up soil and remove toxins from their environments just by absorbing those into their flesh and transforming it somehow, so it is beneficial for the host plants also to let the mushroom to grow in their bodies and surroundings.

This interface, I feel, allows the spirit of the plant to communicate also with us, if we allow it, in a state of union, without the need for traditional spoken language. You can resist the experience of course, and that can lead to a frightening and bad experience, but if you work with the plant and allow the healing and coming together to happen, amazing things can manifest.

For example, one particular strand of mushrooms focused purely on healing my teeth and mouth area, working on that particular area for an hour or two, while I had to lay there in complete silence and acceptance, feeling how something that had stuck between my teeth was being removed, dark thoughts and dark words that had got stuck somehow inside my mouth. Using some sort of spiralling technology to pull out the heavy energies, I could see these rainbow spirals that the mushroom spirit was somehow utilizing to put the energy to movement and transform it into light.

In other examples, they have helped me to show how my brain works, given many direct teachings about how our society operates, how the universe is mathematically constructed and much more that I won’t go into too much detail here.

Revealers of truth

These plants can also teach you things that shake the foundation of our very western so-called-civilization, and can cast light onto the truth behind the very core structures that drive many religions and other control based organisations.

This is one of the reasons I believe, that the powers that be, have wanted to ban and kill paganistic and shamanistic mushroom rituals that have already existed for thousands of years in our cultural upbringing, and have possibly been even very closely knitted together with the whole evolution of our species as humans.

The reality is, that we have lived with these plants and their spirits for as long as we have existed. There can be found proof of ritualistic usage of mushrooms and other entheogenic plants from all around the world, in all cultures, in all times that we have proof from in forms of writings, images, songs and stories.

Where ever there have been humans, there have been shamans, healers, people who communicate with the nature around the tribe, the plants, the spirits and with the galactic beings who work together with us.

This knowledge has been widely killed off by the major religions, instead offering in place control placed, fear based, monoteistic, un-natural belief systems with some truth in them but major factions twisted and darkened away from the original truth, modified to only serve the purpose of the control structures built around the need of people to seek the divine withim themselves.

The time for these factions is slowly coming to an end, and part of this process is the legalization, research and study of entheogenics to be used in healing and learning contexes.

Cost of banning discussion

I’ve gotten considerable help from my experiences with various other teacher plants and mushrooms, but not at all without a cost.

As speaking about these things has been made difficult, it can result to not knowing what to do, not having a tradition or a framework around the healing, easily resulting in not-so-optimal results sometimes and having to figure out things by yourself, without having a teacher showing how to do it properly and how to bring back those teachings into your life.

I would hope that by opening more about my experiences, and breaking through the barriers of communication, I can also inspire others to write about their experiences, and share their insights, so that we would have more knowledge and wisdom on how to approach this subject now and in the future.

Currently it can require considerable courage to see beyond the stigma, as we have been brainwashed to think that only medicine that comes in pill form from a doctor is the correct way, but as we are learning more and more, this not the truth also anymore.

It feels we are at an point in our evolution where we are looking back to nature for the methods on how to continue living on this planet, rational thinking alone cannot cut it anymore as we have seen from the results currently plaguing our society.

I see a bright future for us, and feel we are again remembering who we truly are. In this process, the natural healers can help us regain our connection to our true selves. It is not something that should just be dismissed and put to the side, as many people really need the help these teachers and healers can offer, in order for us to evolve again as a species towards something greater, more unified and even regaining back our cosmic connection.

Afterword

I hope this writing gives some insight onto what the mushroom plants can offer us. I plan to continue writing more about these subjects, from the only viewpoint I have, deep and to the core, discussing also about other teacher and healer plants.

I wish to encourage people to share their experiences, and open up personally, as this is the only way for us to break the code of silence.

By taking action and doing, you are always opening up paths for others, who think in silence, to take action too! ^_^

Video :: Listening to Recursive Geometry :: Cymatic Experiment

My friend Hystereo Psychovsky discovered some time ago that you can listen to images with FL Studio Beepmap plugin. So he tested out feeding it some Sacred Geometry images made with GeoKone.NET, and heard that some of the results are almost resembling music and natural progressions, or like sounds from some animals, like crickets, or very spacey sounds, like coming from another dimension.

These are just some of the images we tested, some would generate even like Icaro -like chants or songs, but those will be saved for future videos. There is definitely some potential here, hopefully at some point we will be implementing pure generative sound into GeoKone, at some version :) Imagine creating audio visually from recursive geometry ^_^

But go ahead, Listen to some Geometry!

How We Are Being Programmed By The Television

My view on what mainstream television is currently:

(Finnish)

Mainstream TV is a way of transmitting Visual Programming for People. Locking Us in front of the strangely pulsating screens, letting our brains fall into sleep and succumb into the mind numbing pleasureness of watching the latest episode of the current blockbuster series. Keeping us sedated, relaxed in our chairs, peaceful.

TV Programming

Enter: Tainment, which keeps us in our current place. How many hours of human development has been wasted by staring into these hypnotizing devices ? How much more richer our lives could be if we were not kept back by the imposed world views of the Mass Media Providers ?

We are being programmed by the TV all the time. We think characters in TV series are Real, we talk about them like they are our Friends. “Hey, did you hear what happened to Joey in the last episode of Friends ? Wasn’t that crazy?! Oh man, That Joey guy!”. We talk about Imaginery People like they are real, something tangible. Isn’t this classed as psychotic behavior by some ? Are we living in a Dream? In a Fantasy ? And if we are, who are we allowing to Create that Fantasy ? You .. or those who control the mass media ?

Want your kid to become a Slave to the Caffeine filled, sugary cola drinks ? Want your kid to think that dressing up like Britney Spears is something to be wanted in Life ? Want your kids heroes to be sucking up to Big Companies that continue raping our Planet for Profit. Then do nothing, let your kids get their world views from the mainstream media, and watch how our society transforms slowly into a land filled with Shopping Centre Temples, where Money, Image, Ego and Golden Bling Bling are worshipped and where everyone is a Slave to the System they have Built.

And From The Heavens God Passed Down Hundreds of Dollars, And Oh Joy, It Was Good

The One God we worship now, Money,  goes Beyond Everything. Morals, Empathy, Feelings and almost everything can be surpassed by the Greed For Money. We have iMagiNated and Created This One Monoteistic Earthly God,  Money, by worshipping it everywhere, putting our I-Magi-Nations into it.

Through Us and Our Lust For Money & Power, Power Over Other Men, we Continue To Support this System (US:THEM).

What We Imagine

We Create

Imagine If You Could Imagine All That Ever Existed

Funny how Easy it Is, but That’s It. When We Imagine Constant Fear and Doubt for the Future, We Create Constant Fear and Doubt.

Currently we live in a System (Us, Them) that Encourages this kind of IMagiNation.

But I Thought Slavery Did Not Exist!

We have to first Break The System, In Order to Evolve. Currently, Mass Media, Movies, CDs, Advertising, Religions, Governments, they all push down the idea of Constant Fear. Fear of the War. Fear that There Is Not Enough for Everyone. That only those who Prove themselves in the Money Game are allocated Resources. Limiting our natural way to Evolve. Limiting Free Copying of Digital Material. Limiting with Copyrights, Patents, Deals, Social Numbers, Rules, Limitations and ultimately Neural Programmings that control everything we do in life.

WHAT? THERE IS _******* ?

When we break free from that limiting system, we see how things really are. So, if you still want to keep on watching TV, go ahead. But know that it is designed to keep us Passive Consumers, whose behaviour is being modified all the time into a Easily Controlled Group Model, resembling that of Frightened Sheep, kept in a passive mode by filling it’s body with highly sedative and Feelings – blocking chemicals.

Primal Sacred Geometry .. Being Taken Over By Someone. (Yeah, They Know About Power of Sacred Geometry)

Pushing down passivating cow milk & sugary poison drinks, dictating what News we should beLIEve and what products to buy. Even going So Far as Creating these Fake and Illusionist Reflections of What is Currently Happening in our World, called Movies & TV Series, where people are being told that “THIS IS A MOVIE, THIS IS NOT REAL”.

Then Creating Movies Out Of Real Things, making us beLIEve that This Event Only Happens In Movies, and not In Real Life.

Ultimately, programming our Minds to tell us “THIS IS NOT REAL”, which leads to us Denying that Event from being Created, because we cannot I-Magi-Ne it.

Making us Think that what you see, may not be Real. It may be Unreal. That something you experience, cannot Exists at all. So Far have we Gone in Experiencing Total Disconnection From The True Nature of Our Universe and Creating this big Illusion of Dis-Connectivity. But It Is Time To Move On. To REvolve, Evolve and Ultimately just Love.

What Will Lead Us To This? It’s Simple:

Do Not Let Any External Source To Tell You What You Can iMagiNe!

This Way, We will automatically start behaving as It Is Natural For Us, in Respect With Nature, and with Respect to Each Others. As we start acting on our Highest Behalf, we are at the same time assisting others to walk their paths following  their true Passion. If we Hide Our Powers, We Will Not Reflect the True Nature of Our Selves, and We Will Stay Enslaved as Anonymous Work Drones.

We Have So Long Been Programmed Into Thinking that we do not have enough, that we are not enough, that we need to buy these sunglasses to look cool, to wear these shirts, to listen to this music and to BeLieVe in these Gods and Masters, for they Know The Secret to Life and are So, Oh So, Sacred and Holy! But, We All Have The Secret Within All Of Us, all we have to do is To Look Within, to Find It ! :)

Look Within

More Sacred Geometry, Star Portals and Mandalas for Meditation

I want to share some more of the Sacred Geometry creations I have put together, I start to honestly feel that these images alter the way I think about my surroundings, they tap directly into some consciousness within me, almost like life coming together and building itself in the shapes of these seemingly simple but deceptively complex formations.

There is something very powerful here in the interlaced play of the red and blue colours

While looking at these pictures in a state of meditation, I can feel how they alter my consciousness somehow directly, with the patterns starting to live a life of their own within my subconsciousness, mind and everything, affecting how I sense everything around me, like the patterns in themselves are starting to grow beyond my monitor, into my existence and altering the way in which I connect to the energies around me, allowing me to focus on a pattern that lets me calibrate my reality into, like offering a blueprint into the way life operates in itself.

Staring Into Infinity, It is hard to let go of looking at this

It’s pretty difficult to put into words what I felt yesterday when I looked at these images in an altered state of consciousness. I felt I was communicating with an living organism, an intelligent AI, that was building itself as I watched it on the screen, like there was some kind of very highly structured form of life communicating through these images, creating life wherever it managed to replicate itself in my conscisousness and opening portals into higher levels of communication between totally different lifeforms that exist somewhere in the realm of pure perfection and logic.

Another variation of the HyperCube

The more I learn about Sacred Geometry, the more it leaves me in awe and the more it teaches me about how the Universe functions as a whole. This is something I want to learn much more and something I want to share with others and teach others how powerful these patterns are and how understanding them can open up whole new ways of thinking.

The Star Of David is a re-occurring image in many different cultures and religions. This is a hyperdrived version of it.

Different indigenous cultures around the world have always understood the meaning of sacred geometry, they have made sure that this information is passed on through differeng generations by etching these patterns into stone, carwing them into wood, weaving them into clothes and flags and making sure we can see them everywhere, so that we may learn and understand from them. The different crosses, swastikas, chakanas, mandalas all represent something very deep in the way our reality operates, describing to us how to tap directly into the source of code of life so to speak.

The Christian Cross depicts in the most simplified ways the Golden Ratio or Phi in it's crossing

The swastikas of different cultures all describe the same thing, a force that outputs energy somehow

The different mandalas combine sacred geometry in a very complicated and profound ways

One very practical application of understanding these different formations has been the way of passing on blueprints on how to draw a perfect circle. We may think that nowadays drawing a circle is an everyday thing, but back in the day it was very important to know and understand how to construct a seemingly infinite form from finite ways of constructions, using straight angles and lines as a basis for the circular shape. This way the circle could have been drawn just by using a set of sticks and some rope for example, making the basis for many of our ancient structures.

Understanding the circle has enabled us to build structures, machines, buildings, churches and many more systems that work in harmony with the nature, letting us harness the powers of the Universe somehow directly.

I found out an interesting thing about when drawing the Star Of David,  the figure with two interlaced triangles. When dropping the number of points in each shape to two, the image becomes the classic Christian Cross. These two classical figures store the same information in the way the ratios of the lines and shapes are constructed. Storing this information must have  felt very important to the people before us, as we can see these images everywhere.

The 2 point representation of the Sacred Cross

Same ratios when adding a third point to the equation

The 4 point representation of the same ratios

I will write more about this subject in more detail later, but here are a few of my latest creations, done with the Sacred Geometry generator that I will release later this year online for everyone to use:

Six Sided Acid Star Radiates Logic

Same formation, with different, easily adjusted parameters in the Geometry Generator

A Detail of the same configuration, with more complex shapes applied

That’s it for now, I will write more once I understand more about these :) Feel free to copy these images and meditate on them, I assure they have effects that will last long after meditating on them.

Are Sysadmins the Shamans of the Digital Realms ?

I’ve often noticed that the world of computers and technology relates to the actual analog world we live in. In this post I want to compare and speculate on some of the similarities in the Digital Realms and our Analog Realms. The structure of this text is still kinda random as the subject is kinda random too, but I hope to present some analogies that are interesting at least from the view point of a computer programmer/sysadmin.. I’m going to publish this now, although the structure needs some more work yet, but this has been floating in my drafts box long enough now.

When People of the World walk on the living entity called Earth, through it’s paths and gateways of natural occupation like water flowing down rivers and animals running through paths in the mud, so do the Digital Entities living and appearing through processed and evolved earth materials (silicone, gold, aluminium) in manifestations of these possible paths that are also called Microprocessors & CPUs, memory gateways, processing cards, power units and so on. Anything that routes electricity or light through it’s integrated pathways can be considered to be a living organism in itself.

CPU Infrastructure

Fractal Tree

What are CPUs basically? Big meshes of Binary Fractal paths where digital information can travel. Structured digital forms of very simple lifeforms, that can react to their surroundings, inputs and outputs. Just like human beings, but in a very much more simplificated form. For Computers and Humans the most earliest memories and primitive reactions are stored in the Basic Input-Output system or BIOS.

Computer BIOS

Human BIOS

“A good comparison to further understand the functionality of the BIOS would be to say that the BIOS is the Computer equivilant of the human hypothalamus. The hypothalamus regulates body temperature, blood pressure, heartbeat, metabolism of fats and carbohydrates, and sugar levels in the blood. It is the subconscious nervous system sometimes it’s called the brain of the brain” (from http://www.basicinputoutputsystem.com/).

As we walk the paths in the forests, so does electricity and by now light also travel through these fractal paths inside a CPU and makes it’s own realm more perfect through binary decisions, choosing paths, travelling through different gates and branches along the binary fractals. Software which tells how to move along these lines carved in the processed sand is stored in the Genetic Memories of Computers, or BIOSes.

Computer Pathway

Human Pathway

BIOS is the basic foundation for creating a model of the Internal Universe inside a computer. More advanced ways to interact can be installed by the Users. The Operating Systems, Realms or Universities in which the programs run can be related to different real life Universes and to viewpoints of different religions in our modern life. Certain beliefs and expectations are set upon different classes of Operating Systems and machines.

Humans have their own ways of building their picture of their world, ruled by different belief systems and religions. These systems are more complex than seemingly simple operating systems or artificial life models, containing programming that is expressed in the basic structure of the Language that humans speak, and most importantly, Language is the symbols we Think In.

Humans can also be programmed, and are programmed foremost by their relationship that they have to their parents, the male and female energies that we are all born out of. The play of polar energies, ying & yang, north & south, black & white, the duality, where in every situation can be thought to exist six degrees of freedom in movement, and from that comes the paradoxical play of duality in everything we experience in this 3D-plane of existence that our planet Earth is situated in from Humans viewpoint.

3D coordinates, six directions of freedom

3D Ying Yang, Play Of Polarities

This play of duality can be seen in the binary operation of computers also, potential differences of binary 0 and 1. Everything in computers is based on the measured voltage differences between different logical operations, gates that either let through current or don’t. Computers are programmed by placing restrictions on the flow of current from point A to point B.

Binary Potential

Humans are programmed through their energies in their environment, social relations, things they sense and relate actions, emotions, feelings, sensations to. Human Programming is implemented with language, behaviorinal modification, audiovisual programming and external stimulus. Basically humans are programmable biocomputers, sensing the world based on duality of everything. Our operating system are different thinking models, religions, and belief systems.

There are many different philosophies related to different Operating Systems. The Operating System basically defines the Universe in which different Software, or Digital Life, can run. One particulary interesting is the GNU Way of Things, where all information is shared and believed to be beneficial for the whole User Community. User interaction is the key factor in developing a better world and a better way to run these Digital Realms, as contributing members of the Open Source movement. Where every piece of code shared can potentially contribute directly to the World they are Running in. Other developers can improve and build upon these shared foundations of code, effectively Spreading the Love.

Sharing Is Caring

GNU Is Not Unix

Systems running GNU/Linux are derived from the UNIX way of doing things, and also from UNIX comes the way of running software inside the OS. Big part of these systems are the different processes handling background shuffling of information through the kernel, BIOS and CPU. In UNIX these background processes are called Daemons.

Human Demon

BSD Devil

UNIX Daemons seem to be The Digital Manifestations of so called Spirits the Greek called Daimon, Mysterious Gods of Ancient Time, or “Supernatural Beings Between Mortals and Gods, such as Inferior Divinities and Ghosts of Dead Heroes” (Plato’s Symposium).  They act in the digital realms as opposed to the old “analog” realms of past life. They act between the Divine (The Machine) and the mortal (The Users). They are not of the malevolent kind (demon), but more like Demigods delivering messages between the user realm and the realm of binary.

The deal with UNIX Daemon processes is that they act as mediators between the User Software Processes and the Operating System. Like the process initd that is started right after the kernel has bootstrapped itself and created the Universe where the Daemons can play. Initd then starts other processes according to the settings The Sysadmin has setup in the system. Thus is the Universe created and it is time to wait for the users to start asking the Daemons if they could run their own programs.

Then according to different rights granted by the God of The System, or the mysterious ROOT account which There Can only Be One in any given installation of an OS and even if you rename the user or rename, his/her user ID will be Zero and thus there can only really be only One True God in any Universe (or running instance of any OS), Always Identified by his user ID which is Zero. And Zero is the number of which he will be identified.

You never are the mysterious root account, as there can only be one root account per OS. But you can become the root account by means of rituals and summonings of medium spirits that let you be in touch with God. One such medium software to summon the almighty root account is ‘su’, or ‘sudo’. Providing the user knows the correct spells, or passwords, he/she can be granted for a moment superpower rights. But these powers come with a responsibility, as the user has also the power to trash their system or make it completely unusable. With power comes responsibility, same thing as in the analog world.

Shamans also carry  the power to alter their Realities and the realities of others.  Shamans interact with the mystical powers of the Universe, communicating with Angels & Demons, realizing these higher aspects of ourselves and working together with them, using spells and rituals that help them to achieve what they want. With this power comes great responsibility, when used improperly can cause great disturbances in the balance of everything, even leading to thrashing the very system we operate in.

Aren’t UNIX processes God Parts of our Computers who the “Shaman” or “Sysadmin” as is the term used in the Digital World, Communicates With and tries to make peace with these Demigodlike processes ?
