Bryan Callen

Are you mean?

Are you good?

are you the boss who's talking down to a person how would you feel if you watch someone do that then the third step is remove yourself from the physical presence and imagine this environment as it relates to the physical universe and the goings-on of the world how do you feel about that ask yourself how you feel in each of these circumstances and that is to develop a higher order of thinking and a better sense of self for a lot of people they have never done this before

And they're dicks.

And then when you ask them to stop, step out and imagine two people doing what you're doing, you'd be like, oh, that guy's an asshole.

And be like, well, that's you.

Have you ever thought about that?

And that's a really simple exercise.

But then when you move back and you get outside of that into the third person, the narrator, the witness, whatever, outside of the world, you're now looking at all of these people and you're going, it's a bunch of people in a bar drinking poison for literally no reason.

It doesn't improve their life in any meaningful way.

And it's like, now you choose where do you wanna live?

And most people are happy to be philosophical zombies, AKA NPCs, going about their life, never asking these questions because it's painful or difficult.

And some people really want to understand and know, and they may realize,

Me sitting in this room is completely meaningless to the function of life, the universe, the betterment of mankind, or anything.

And that's kind of like, if you're familiar with Watchmen, when Dr. Manhattan goes to Mars and he says, tell me how this would benefit from the creation of life.

So asking those questions, very similar to what you were describing, that's what it reminded me of.

We can see like 1% of the electromagnetic spectrum.

I have to correct you.

We don't have five senses.

We have substantially more.
