Philospher's Guide to Hyperspace - Reality Filters

Migrated topic.

Philosophy teaches us that we cannot imagine without being shown, and we cannot create without having seen.

This is ultimately true for DMT. This is ultimately true for dissolving our filters.
Not taking the dogmatic approach on this subject however a few trace elements have to be first established before we can carry on with the semantics, of the idea of dissolving filters, and thus understanding what reality is in its eternal composure.

The mind has a voice, and this is known, and this can be a useful tool in creating a perfect epicenter in your mind for all of your mentality to suddenly shift from the orchestra to the audience.

The mind will arrange several ways that it can perceive with empathy if you will, its own thoughts and sub-perspectives. It holds these things in tandem for a long while until you're able to physiologically require their understanding for survival. This is something that plants have allowed us as Humans to do for ages, and we are of course perpetually achieving this state of mind.

The dissolving of filters is a figure of speech, for being able to make an alignment to the minds lexicon of stored knowledge that it has acquired since it was last intuited with reality.

It is essential that we are constantly performing these shifts and adjustments because we are active through our filters, things and ideas travel into our minds and we later are required to spend the time to sort them out, out mind can do this alone, yet without the aid of plants and species we will not have access to them in our daily lifestyle.

There exists several areas of the mind that these groups of thoughts can within lay dormant, and this means there must be different aides and means through which to achieve their potential. Thus we have the dissolving of the filters.

This is the ultimate fact that whether or not we are dissolving these existing filters at no time will we ever stop producing filters, for these are what our minds are using to capture these thoughts and place them in the correct dormancy.

Furthermore, it is not the face of death we are staring at with our mind's eye, and the real question we should ask ourselves and each other is 'what would be needed to produce the sight of death, for our minds to better function in the living world when those are two separate matters entirely?'
 
Mathematical reasoning may reveal that which is yet to be seen. If a there is something proven to be mathematically sound and an experiment refutes it, then the experiment is flawed.

I am not disagreeing with you, just suggesting that math is one of the most effective tools for sustainably piercing reality filters.

Math builds bridges into the unknown.

Plants provide an excellent method as well, but we are more or less elastically tethered to our day-to-day understanding and cannot bring back all the knowledge we find. The experiences are beyond value, though they are only a piece of the equation.

The filters serve a purpose; a cup of water without the glass is only a puddle. Maybe the goal is not to dissolve the filters, but learn to effectively navigate them?

Indeed azrael. Mathematics has shown us that at least 11 dimensions exist (possibly 12) but we perceive our reality in only 4 dimensions (three in space and one in time).

I had an idea that when using medicines the limits of our perception are widened quite considerably, meaning that we can take in more information about our surroundings, possibly perceiving things in 5 or maybe 6 dimensions :D

What is interesting is that the maths being used today by physicists and the like, can be seen in ancient spiritual texts.

The theory that, "every action has an equal and opposite reaction", seems like a 20th century echo of the Hermetic principle, "as above, so below", to me.

Maybe that's misguided? I'm no physicist or mathematician...but I find the similarities a possibility considering that Isaac Newton was a practising Hermeticist/Alchemist (which would have influenced the likes of Einstein and Stephen Hawking in the long run).

Have a look at 'The Emerald Tablet' by Hermes Trismegistus (there are free translations online) see what you think.

:D
 
Azreal, Mathematics is one of the most important keys to discovering reality.

My opinion is that our mind can travel to a place without shape or constant hold, and so thus far as we examine problems with our struggle to allow things like plants to guide us spiritually, we have things like mathematics in this world to hold us to the ground.

It is possible to explain very clearly matters of geometry, but it is very difficult to distinguish between whether we can think geometrically instead of instinctively.

When we take entheogens and experience that topography of travel, it is geometrically that we watch these thoughts drift away. Yet when we come back into stable consciousness, that environment ceases to exist yet we feel the terrain within our determination.

This is a subject best experienced rather than explained, unlike mathematics which is easily more provocative to the sober mind.

Whereas entheogenic spirituality is more appealing to the spirit in rapture of a conscious freedom.
