You are living in a time or a world that has no concepts of doctors. Your closet equivalent is a shaman, or a healer, who is familiar with empowering patterns of consciousness (everyone comes to them for advice) and perhaps some simple herbs & remedies. These simple remedies are backed up by powerful stories familiar to your culture or tribe. For instance, you may believe that strawberries, with their powerful red color, are good for circulation or enhance passion.

Consuming these stories is bringing them into yourself. We consume stories like this all the time.

Our culture is far too fixated on the body. We blame everything on the body and it becomes a fixation upon which all other stories need to pay tribute.

Why does it feel uncomfortable or "yucky" to see "underneath" the flesh? Why do we recoil? Have you ever stopped to wonder why?

Revulsion is a warning sign -- ignored and overwritten at one's peril. All feelings are feedback mechanisms tuned to Zero/God and are in perfect order. They are how you "receive signals" from the cosmos. They malfunction when they are ignored or second-guessed. They are not intended to provide you with a "complete answer" because that answer is far too sprawling and complex for you to comprehend in the moment when a decision must be made -- see the Drunk Librarian and how we have been created to be the "ultimate references."

How did the anatomy of the human body come into being, except through a gradual progression of fixation and expectation of narrative creating it? Like the tree falling in the forest when no one is around -- is there an "inside" of the body if no one has ever seen it?

Of course there isn't -- because nothing exists until it is brought into creation via an act of will (observation.) Return to an older post about how science has become a physical obsession --> Science & AI. This does not mean we are not beholden to "old observations" that have settled into the collective mind -- but rather we have "delved too deep."

You are always at the "apex" of your cohesion as an individualized soul, even if this apex may appear a "less than you can imagine." I want you to consider not just your entire life, but all your prior lives. If you do not believe in reincarnation (or variants), then consider all the lives of your ancestors ; consider the "code" that you believe is in the DNA that was cultivated by the lives of your ancestors -- the material that provides some level of influence when you enter this world. There are things you know that are built-in -- not just behaviors, but preferences that seem to have no roots in your current life.

Now with this consideration in mind, consider how all of these experiences & knowledge would culminate into a lens, or a window, as they must. This is easy to do. If you are conditioned to thinking you are "all that is of this life" then just expand your scope to consider you are "all that has come before" as well.

With this mind, then, let us consider: Why are you here? This article is not about why we live or why we experience but why you are here in this moment and not somewhere else. But the more important question is: why can't you go somewhere else?

"Somewhere else." What does that mean? Well, you can easily conceive a place "other than here" can't you? I don't mean your home versus the grocery store. I mean a place that seems "other" than your "whole conception of the universe."

And you say, well, there is space and perhaps other dimensions-yet-to-be-discovered and so on and yet even if we accept these explanations there remains one truth in all of this: wherever you go, there you are.

Our consciousness follows us wherever we go and provides the means by which we experience "the outside." So even if we move, or travel, can we have said to have gone anywhere at all? Not really. Your joys and foibles will follow you wherever you go. You cannot see past your own perceptions. What you see is always you, even if it is reflected off another.

The common theme of the inverted world is that it looks outside of itself for definition, completion ; it has a "deep dependence" that makes it "mortal." Without sustenance, it sees the world as a hostile place, attempting to deprive it of life. So the inverted world always creates systems to control, protect, or consume/destroy life. The inverted world has no grounding in "God" or Creator, or Source, or whatever word resonates with you. And via this fixation of the external, it creates a kind of inverted shadow world that is overlaid upon the truth, or living world.

The living world is that which springs forth from consciousness eternal. It is effortless and there is an unmistakable connection and wonderment between you and "it" while the inverted world feels dead, empty, or damned. Nothing about these worlds is "physical" as in something outside of yourself or independent of consciousness -- both worlds are of consciousness, but one is a tangle of lies that distorts your perception. They are better identified through feeling, or heart, or intuition. The senses provide both truth & lies and cannot be relied upon in totality, especially with considerations to the Buffer.

The inverted world is based in artifice -- in artificial volition. It creates "excuses" or "reasons" or "justifications" for its own momentum in order to acquire the fuel it requires to maintain its continually dying universe. The inverted world is a closed system that must tempt willful energy into it. The inverted world is an entropy box of the highest order because, as far as I can tell, it is not a game ; it is intimately tied with the cohesion of consciousness -- the self-actualization process of a being.

All beings will find the holy grail -- in time -- but as far as I can discern, you move exactly as fast as you try or intend. A movie or a game can have a beginning & end -- an entropy box -- without drawing you into it, making you believe it real.

All of us are suffering from various degrees of corruption from the stories of the inverted world. Groundhog Day is real and if you utilize your will in this fashion, you

Let's elaborate a little more on our last post.

I'm going to help you understand how time doesn't exist.

So I'm going to just break the bad news to you right now. You are in a time loop. Actually, it isn't bad news at all -- it is divine design. The problem is that you have somehow locked your time loop into the Human/Earth game.

The linearity that you associate with your experience has more to do with One Worldism, or certain rules that would be common to maintaining continuity/stability -- rather than as a byproduct of being "less than divine." Any game requires sequence, so divine beings are not somehow "beyond" experiencing sequence, which would rather make them more limited, no?

Because the belief in One Worldism is pervasive, the human collective tracks its stories -- its daily dreams -- in sequence. Or rather sequence is being imposed giving rise even to the concept of a calendar or a clock. This also has the effect of "slapping you" or grabbing your chin and redirecting you into this One Worldism story even when you want to look away. In other words, your commitments to time keep coming back and dragging you down.

Because there is just "one world" instead of "many" this necessitates the need for sequence -- even if these sequences are themselves just close-copies of one another from which we are fooling ourselves. If I take a photo of a park and you take a photo of the same park, are they the same park? Only our agreement would make them so -- so we are agreeing to the verisimilitude (the rules we impart to the application of our will) to make it so and behave as if we are going to the same place. This allows for a kind of intersection & communication between realms, but can also represents a horrific binding. Fixation can make a "common place to meet" into a prison if it is the only place we believe in (One World)-- an interstice between beings that can becoming a binding (and blinding.)

First of all, I apologize for the extended absence. Other aspects of life were hoarding my attention and the situation, I hope, is becoming rectified.

I have been squirreling away a bunch of good articles, but they all need some love in order to be presentable. I want to start with a good recap, or rehash of "Ex Inanis" so far. You know, like ... "The Story So Far."

So, you think free will doesn't exist, or isn't absolute, eh? You think that perhaps you are the sum total of your parts -- that you are like a calculator and the variables of your life just add up -- your decisions output in perfect order? Mayhaps you think that your life feels like it is scripted, or that there are forces who have a hand in your pie.

"But Macil! Its true. You can't convince me. It is all determined! One state informs the next state, one feeling, one thought, like a row of domino's. You are powerless before this unfolding of events. You are just a complicated chemical reaction!"

You poor deluded fool. Let me instruct you on how wrong you are.

I want to point out that you are able to observe the forces that seemingly impact your decisions -- or result in your decisions -- which should give you a clue. The fact that you can observe them should give you immediate pause.

Or perhaps you haven't ever considered that "something" is observing all of this activity unfold for you to even talk or complain about? In which case that alone would be quite the revelation. If you "see from something other than your eyes", then is someone other than you controlling this "force of observation?" "What" exactly has the time to complain or contemplate that it doesn't have free will?

It could be said that the world is at a precipice between those who are falling into determinism (physicalism) and free will (anything freaking

You know what time of year it is -- tax season. That's right -- the time of year where we have somehow been convinced that paying a toll is somehow necessary for the functioning of a civilized society. Worse, we are conned into doing the work of collecting the toll and hand delivering it! Talk about evil.

This is a good article for Ex Inanis because it exemplifies the problem of One Worldism so well.

Before we continue, this is your friendly reminder to read the disclaimer plastered on the top of the site. The discussions we have here are intended to challenge your understanding of the world -- not provide you with answers.

Let's begin.

You've heard every argument in the book for the justification for taxes, I'm sure: protection (military), welfare (of any kind), public services (roads, power) and so on. We are not going to rehash any of those here. I don't care where you fall on the spectrum -- if you believe in any form of government, even some ideal form that has never existed, you are still stuck in One Worldism.

So how do we explain "One Worldism
