Final Meditation on The Soul

The Ouroboric Observer: On the Munchausen Soul “Whoever fights with monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you.” – Friedrich Nietzsche I have thought about how to resolve the paradoxes that higher dimensionality brings; symmetry…

A Certificate of Presence and Absence

Now we grieve in comments.Death is no longer a curtain call, it’s a playlist. In this age of eternal footage, AI griefbots, and ultra-HD memories, death hasn’t stopped happening……

Meditations on the Soul
Dialogues, part 2 This entry will concern itself over the spectrum of sensations, and how such sensations have defined themselves within the experience of the human condition.

Meditations on the Soul: Dialogues, Part 1

Individuality, Collectivism, Transmigration or Situated?: Meditations on The Soul Part 2
Plato argued that the soul was immortal, that it outlived its fleshy shell after death and that it existed before birth and after birth. This made a difference from Pythagoreans who believed in the transmigration of souls, the soul, in an attempt to purify itself, continues to adopt living bodies until it has done so.…

Consciousness Is A Reaction To The Observation of The Soul: Meditations on The Soul, Part 1
I will be using Von Nuemann-Wigners ‘Friend‘ thought experiment (put simply, consciousness is responsible for quantum matter change under observation, not just devices).

The initial assertation from experiments such as ‘The Double-Slit Experiment‘,…
