The room

I am at peace. I have no desire. There is only me, right here, right now. There is no other place, and there is no other time. My peace is shattered and I open a door. As I enter the door I leave the place where I am infinite and at peace, and squeeze my… Continue reading The room

The fragmentation of desire

One of the most confusing and disorienting aspects of demiself is the fragmentation of my desire. Upon awakening and manifesting my secondself and thirdself, I immediately commence my unending quest for relief. It takes many forms, starting with the simple physical desire to wake up and move out of my bed. Then I desire to… Continue reading The fragmentation of desire

Selfism in Genesis

Religion has been a recurring theme in my life. I have always wanted to know the truth, and have gone through long periods of embracing, and then rejecting the various stories packaged as religion. The Old Testament Book of Genesis, in particular, has always fascinated me. As one of the deepest stories within my secondself,… Continue reading Selfism in Genesis

I am also a visitor… Continue reading The anonymous spectator role

Conviction work

Conviction work orients me away from demiself and toward omniself by weakening the bonds of my awakening. When I awaken, I depart firstself… Continue reading Conviction work

My characters

The people are the characters that flitter about me in my awakening, always busy. They make and drive the machines, produce and consume products, mind their families and build relationships. They form tight-knit identity groups and fight with other groups. They are trapped in a perpetual cycle of conflict and resolution, desire and achievement. The… Continue reading My characters

Demiselfist and triselfist perspectives

Prior to this incantation, I had been using the word “triself” as a mid-way between the demiselfist and omniselfist perspectives. The idea was that I would proceed from demiself to omniself through triself; triself was the middle perspective. But with this incantation, I remove “triself” from this spectrum, leaving only a binary spectrum with demiself… Continue reading Demiselfist and triselfist perspectives
