So dopamine access, we're hacking their consciousness. Through the dopamine axis, which the reward chemical, and we shouldn't forget that we run on chemicals in three categories. Neurotransmitters, so serotonin, dopamine, oxytocin, norepinephrine, all these things. Enzymes and hormones. And of course, the body runs on electricity, very tiny part.
So we're hacking the entire set of hardware and we're creating a different consciousness. And now... As we have more and more people who are swearing they're going to find the solution, others are completely opposed to them and not even giving them a chance. And there's a lot of friendly fire and breaking each other's legs. And that has become a practice.
And Silicon Valley is the one that is doing this impact on reality massively. in a positive and negative way more than anyone else. So while royalties and nobilities are no longer acting as a major force, some people think that the Habsburgs are still in the background manipulating things. Some people think this group and that group, but we're not going to go there now.
Let's stay with religions, media, and Silicon Valley, because these are happening for real. And we need to figure out how can these people stop investing energy, time, and money, resources, into things that have proven not to do good to anyone on earth and anything. And use our intellect with wisdom. What is the solution? Self-work. Inner work, spirituality, inner child work.
We should not demonize so much the Hitlers of the world and the Stalins and the Gaddafis and the Assad and all these dictators, but to understand how do we become like that? How do people start with good intention? Like all gurus, like all cults, and then we derail. What is causing us to derail? With compassion, empathy, with creativity, because even our creativity is being misused.
You were talking about earlier, this person start to imagine things are not happening, so they're being creative, but they're creating more anxiety. So we start to use this agency that we have in a negative way and spiral down and there's no limit. And these ideas become so real that the person often resorts to committing suicide to stop the voices. Where do these voices come from?
I'd like to mention a great book that I read recently that changed dramatically or affirmed things as well and changed further my understanding. Jerry Marzinski's book is called... An amazing journey into the psychotic mind, the fall of the ivory tower.
He's someone who specialized as a psychiatrist in abnormal psychology and worked over 40 years with people in rehab centers and jails and mental institutions and these people talking about voices in their head. Voices that we all have. The negativity, the rumination around negativity, the negative entertainment about perceiving something and take it apart, milking the idea.
We could go for several minutes and a long time. And we find that our capacity, our agency, for some reason is interested in playing the scenario in our head and the scenario is not good. And again, as I said earlier, most likely it'll never happen. Why do we do that? Where is that coming from?
We need to understand the nature of these voices and bring in spirituality to understand what's going on, or this concept of parasitic forces that plague our mind. You find them in so many ancient cultures. In Gnosticism, it's been called the archons. It comes from ancient Greek, archonic forces. The archon means the ruler. Gurdjieff called it the evil magician.
In North America, the natives called it wetiku. And the concept of Satan, the adversary in Kabbalah, shaitan in Sufism, the jinn in the Arab world and Middle East. I think this is real. I think that we need to look into and learn, be open at least to, we don't know what we don't know.
and start to observe that in the self, in contemplation, in meditation, in any spiritual work with psychedelics, also to figure out who's having these thoughts. Who am I? As they tell you in the Vedanta schools in Hinduism, that the ultimate question, the most important one that anyone can ask is, who am I? What am I? Tat-vam-asi is the answer to that in Sanskrit, which means you're all of that.
Yes. Beautiful. Well, in this case, it's important for us as humans, what you've gone, to do the narrative therapy, which is what I promote to people, to remind them to see that your dad came to suffer and to leave a trace in you so that you help others with the way he suffered. Yes.
But that has to be recontextualized and to understand that, yeah, maybe it was, I'm sure it was very traumatic for you to see him isolating himself and it marked you forever. But this, you created the alchemy here. You are bringing this negative energy, let's call it, it's far more than energy and...
emotions and emotional states and so on and so forth and ideas to transmute this negative energy into a positive one and bring learning out of it to yourself and others. And that voice is serious. And we need to follow that voice, but it has to be in tune. It has to be in line with Christ consciousness, with the logos, with the likeness of God within us.
God as harmony, God as love, cosmic magnitude of love. And I've had mystical experiences. I'm talking from real experiences and not confabulating. But there is also learning, even if the person died because of that voice.
Is that how can we trust that voice and take it to places of beauty, of learning, and not further separation? Most likely he did that because... Of things in his subconscious mind, things he needed to heal from, and darkness that was not addressed because, A, we're not given these tools by our parents most of the time. Now we're starting to learn about him in the past.
I mean, this has been happening for quite a long time, but now it has increased immensely, so many people now. are into yoga and meditation, spirituality, shamanism and psychedelics and breathwork and eating better. So we're learning to fine-tune this generational trauma in our epigenetics so that eventually
This crescendo is going to be an accelerando as well, slow speeding up, and we become different species and our behavior would change. But we need to create a dialogue around it and a discussion to see that people come and die and leave something behind. It's up to us to contextualize it properly or improperly. And I think this was a beautiful gift from your dad.
Yeah. Beautiful analysis. Yes, I'm really happy that you learned this lesson. Yeah, so he was no longer tapped into the dopamine axis that a lot of people become high achievers and they build huge companies because... They get into achieving, achieving, but what they want is to show mom and dad that I'm worthy of love. Am I doing good? Do you like me better now? And to feel good about themselves.
