The illusion of philosophy.
Posted: Wed Sep 17, 2025 6:00 pm
Philosophies, ideologies, politics, beleifs, science or logic and reason, all these things are the product of thought and thought is limited to memory which is a shallow pool of knowledge, which is the past, a tiny fragment of the whole, man gives great importance to it but it has little value, bordering on an illusion, thought is not reality, thought is just a filtered and edited reality. Man thinks that through gaining knowledge enough will be known one day to solve all problems and create a utopia of logic and reason, but this is an illusion. It is also believed by most that thought is the only way that anything can be solved , but in the practical realm thought itself creates as many problems as it solves because it is limited and cannot see unknown outcomes, the nature of reality is that it is constantly changing, and thought can only ever create a solution based on memory, which is the past. In the psychological realm it creates conflicts both externally and internally, one beleif is in opposition to another , one religious claim of truth is threatened by another claim of truth, one idealogy is the new hope for mankind but creates a catastrophe , one philosophy is replaced by another and so on.
Thought is the psychological operating system of all mankind and the cause of all conflict, whether in daily life or globally. Mankind is destroying itself because of its own operating system, by its own choices, the external world is not doing this to mankind, there is no outside mysterious force doing this, we are destroying ourselves and our environment. The psychological conflict within us at a personal level is manifested in mankinds actions in the world as a whole, so those who claim to have the new solutions have infact based them on their own knowledge, which is the past, and the source of them is the same operating system that is causing the problems. There are no seperate elites ruining everything for the ordinary person, if only they could be overthrown , this has been tried many, many times, the revolutionaries become the elites and the chaos continues in another form. Those elites are not an 'other' they are just overblown vesions of all of us, all sharing the same psychological operating system, psychologically controlled by thought.
Is there another way ?
There is an another way of existing which has been known for thousands of years , which is going beyond a life dominated by thought and existing by direct perception of reality just as it is , thought is necessary to function in daily life but it doesn't have to be in control. You cannot access this because your operating system is based on maintaining the illusion of a seperate self, without thought doing this then the self dies, your own operating system will never allow this to happen. Your are trapped in a trap of your own making, which doesnt exist , which you can step out of at any time , but it is impossible to do so because 'you' will die.
Is this possible?
No, it is impossible, the possible only exists within the realm of thought, this is the impossible, thought is the possible, the known, this is the end of the known and nothing else to replace it, a life in the unknown. This is the last thing you ever want to happen to you, this is the end of everything that makes up the you, everything you think you are , all your past, every hurt you suffered, every joy you remembered, all your hopes and dreams of the future that you were pursuing, it is complete freedom, you do not want this under any circumstances.
But it already exists, it is always there in every moment, there is no path to it , you dont need to do anything except stop doing, thinking leads away from it , it is impossible only because you think it is, when you stop thinking.... it already is the reality.
