Know Thyself
E179 - Reggie Watts: The Absurdity of Being a Human Being

It's informational coherence.

Know Thyself
E179 - Reggie Watts: The Absurdity of Being a Human Being

So the idea of that consciousness, awareness, all these things arise from this pure field of essentially what I would call coherence.

Know Thyself
E179 - Reggie Watts: The Absurdity of Being a Human Being

paradox you know it's it arises from that and it creates structure so it seeks coherence and for me um you know i got into this argument it was really interesting with some interesting people but they were talking about um they were they were they were like uh having a discussion debating

Know Thyself
E179 - Reggie Watts: The Absurdity of Being a Human Being

compassion and empathy which i was like oh that's interesting like those aren't really debatable things really in my perspective but i've you know i was interested so i had the conversation but what i said is that um i was like it's all if you're guided by love um

Know Thyself
E179 - Reggie Watts: The Absurdity of Being a Human Being

it seeks coherence.

Know Thyself
E179 - Reggie Watts: The Absurdity of Being a Human Being

And coherence meaning resonance, harmony, sympathy, empathy.

Know Thyself
E179 - Reggie Watts: The Absurdity of Being a Human Being

All of those things arise naturally when you're in service of love, meaning you relinquish yourself to the idea of love being all.

Know Thyself
E179 - Reggie Watts: The Absurdity of Being a Human Being

And in doing so,

Know Thyself
E179 - Reggie Watts: The Absurdity of Being a Human Being

It seeks coherence.

Know Thyself
E179 - Reggie Watts: The Absurdity of Being a Human Being

And so that way you start gravitating to other things in the world that resonate on that frequency.

Know Thyself
E179 - Reggie Watts: The Absurdity of Being a Human Being

And you start noticing that reality around you starts resonating and all these things.

Know Thyself
E179 - Reggie Watts: The Absurdity of Being a Human Being

And so, but they were like, they didn't, they couldn't quite understand that idea.

Know Thyself
E179 - Reggie Watts: The Absurdity of Being a Human Being

And they thought that it was like, oh, love.

Know Thyself
E179 - Reggie Watts: The Absurdity of Being a Human Being

Like, love's a quantity of a thing, or it's a concept of a thing.

Know Thyself
E179 - Reggie Watts: The Absurdity of Being a Human Being

It's a thing that appears when conditions occur.

Know Thyself
E179 - Reggie Watts: The Absurdity of Being a Human Being

Like, it's conditional.

Know Thyself
E179 - Reggie Watts: The Absurdity of Being a Human Being

Instead of, no, love is the base state of reality.

Know Thyself
E179 - Reggie Watts: The Absurdity of Being a Human Being

And love is not good or bad.

Know Thyself
E179 - Reggie Watts: The Absurdity of Being a Human Being

It's paradoxical.

Know Thyself
E179 - Reggie Watts: The Absurdity of Being a Human Being

It is all things, and it is no things.
