I read War and Peace by Tolstoy in my mid 20s. Looking back ....(59 now) ... that book changed me ..... forever .... I grew up being told (Russia bad) ...... that book gave me a deeper context and helped me see the info bubble I was surrounded by. Im not a very smart person ... I cant read very fast. But its amazing how one can develope a slow mind by diligent searching and achieve higher intellect over a period time. I think you had a bright clear mind early in life .... I was surrounded by so much poppycock early and had to sort thru it over time.
It’s so wonderful to listen to all the gnosis you freely share. But it sucks that the price I pay seems to be that I’m going to have to listen to you shit on meditation A LOT in the process. Love you and your work Ken, but logic, facts, and wisdom can be given without flippancy. It’s like the pro Russia/pro Ukraine or pro trump/anti trump ppl: you’ve always gotta take a shot at what you consider the other side
Interesting discussion on etymology. Ever consider using a different word than wisdom? Wisdom literally means knowledge accumulated through philosophic or scientific learning (aka empiricism). In other words, wisdom points to the highest and most lofty ideas of ego consciousness, whose sole purpose is to sustain itself. Truth and reality confuse the caterpillar priests of the scientific method. Their paradigm, or fixed set of beliefs, is founded on empirical concepts of a materially existing world; that is, sciential theorems, not the sapiential truth or the reality beyond objects. The glorification of empirical evidence by Priests of Science actually encourages an inferior and potentially incurable neurosis for humanity. Nothing wrong with empirical evidence if understood in its proper place, that is, empiricism is based on the relative truth through sense perception. "Man's present civilization is erected upon the foundation of empirical knowledge obtained through his senses. In other words, the so-called "knowledge" upon which man relies is founded upon the evidence of his senses, or more simply, upon the nonexistent waves of motion of a nonexistent substance." Walter Russell. "The probability that sentient beings can see reality as it is, is zero" - Donald Hoffman "The person who gathers knowledge through the six senses is categorized by the Buddha as a lunatic." Sabbe Putajjana Unmattaka.
I'm sorry to ask such a plain question, but you are the only person I think I know, who might have this information at hand... although perhaps its not the sort of content you get into (although perhaps you should try to make a piece about this very simple kind of practical-philosophical inspection of the matter). I am looking for a bit a Tesla (Nikola) writing, that is quoted in some other youtubers assessment of Tesla's ideas, she was not so kind, or understanding of the brilliance on display... she found a bit of an essay Tesla wrote, and I cant remember the name of that essay... it goes into talking about energy, or electricity, and mentions things about morality of people, and household children raising regimes... as a limiting factor to expanding availability of energy to society... do you know the essay I am referring too, can you please tell me the name of it, if you can recall it, as I want to be able to send a link to it, to a friend, who I'm currently in discussions with... Its part of an project we have, to create a entropic transduction electrical power generating device--- haven't done all the math yet to even know if its viable: but I'm still philosophizing about the ethics of such a device, and if it might harm environmental nature... I hope you will excuse, this secretarial question... By the way, on topic to this video, I think, if you have the time, this discussion I had, is a pretty good exemplification of Apophasis... ruclips.net/video/rGG5d9JAmsE/видео.html (it is a 6 and a half hour audio book - dialogue, with perhaps some specialized knowledge required as background).

Meditation or the ritual practice of concentration can lead you a place or not a place of wisdom a state of knowing rather then belief. If you'd prefer thought Ken you can call it spacing out
Would it be apt to think that "Med" pertains to being sat. I did Latin, French and German at school but it's all rather rusty, but having some understanding about la vie grammarian, leaves me in........🤯. I salute your Autodidactic mensch. Your content is entertaining and informative. Thanks Ken. 🌼✨💖
In Patanjali's yoga sutras, the steps after pratyahara are translated as Concentration and Meditation and Samadhi. What word would you use instead of Meditation?
your right a about the bible none seance in church and your right about mediation is a meaningless word. u people can call it raising human consciousness thats not none seance you can if u know your body works. thats thing called finding knowledge and applying it to see if true or false. i dont have that much knowledge but i am not a stupid person when i figure out were i need to go ill read more i like your channel its good.
Was thinking about the soul/driver guiding the senses (emotions?)/horses to drive the cart/body.🤔 so in a nutshell does it mean you/soul either control your emotions/senses or they control you/soul in your body/cart? Also everyone knows emotions are easily manipulated so who is really driving the cart/body if you/soul is not. 🤔
Gurdjieff’s Equipage Simile is the best exposition of the ancient charioteer metaphor. That is one of the best models. Up there with Shakespeare use of the Globe as a model (the absent author, the stage, the set, the audience, the actors, the play). “…………These our actors, As I foretold you, were all spirits…..”
Do custom made to order teas, drinks of choice, etc. made with your cave water. I would buy a case of Mason jars filled with water. Once I drink them I have usable quality jars. Win.

That is geometry. You are trying to find meaning in the tape measure instead of the non-quantumized aspects. Particles do not and cannot describe reality.

highly logical
Maybe many stupid people told you you are not smart, don't fall for the 'ad populum' fallacy, it's them and the majority who are dumb,

Wow, 13:32. Hearing that articulated in a way that I understand really opened up a new perspective for me.
Oh Ken, just read your famous book on magnetism. Amazing.
All the students in the class and the teacher suggested your book.
Man! I love you 🥳🥰
you do???????

The only god one needs know and understand is the one best viewed in the mirror.
From what I am able to grasp, this is knowing the essence of something by knowing what it is not.

What is apophaticism?
apophatic theology is theology by negation - only saying what God isn't rather than having a list of words to make into idols

What's the source of the soul ?
You don't need to find but only realize that you are
In Patanjali's yoga sutras, the steps after pratyahara are translated as Concentration and Meditation and Samadhi. What word would you use instead of Meditation?
It is just negating everything to see what really is. Thats all the rest are paths to get there
your right a about the bible none seance in church and your right about mediation is a meaningless word. u people can call it raising human consciousness thats not none seance you can if u know your body works. thats thing called finding knowledge and applying it to see if true or false. i dont have that much knowledge but i am not a stupid person when i figure out were i need to go ill read more i like your channel its good.
I believe the disconnect we are arrested of is our language...our words seem to be incorrect... All the time...

Not taking up the attributes of anything encountered is self mastery.
