The constellation

As a descentist, I know that my waking life is an illness that interrupts my true and healthful state I assume in sleep. I know that my peaceful state persists within my illness as my core desire for peace. But the illness accumulates upon my desire for peace as the constellation of inner and outer… Continue reading The constellation

I am the author

Before descent, I was lost without realizing it. I always knew I was missing something, but I suppressed that and focused on overcoming the challenges of the world I found myself in. I woke up every day and continued what I had started in days before. I spent my time searching for various types of… Continue reading I am the author

The distortion

The distortion is a persistent constellation of conceptual and perceptual convictions that manifest as the various inner and outer forms and performances I experience in my awakening.

But this framing of my experience distorted my actual condition. In my descent I have realized that my awakening into the second place is not disconnected from my asleepening… Continue reading My unified desire

What I know

November 16, 2021 I experience my existence as the repeated oscillation between two shapes. My first shape is the timeless, spaceless peace I experience when I sleep. My second shape is the period that begins when I awaken and ends when I asleepen. My first shape is my true nature, while my second shape is… Continue reading What I know

My existential primitives

My true nature is hidden behind misunderstandings and false assumptions that collectively form my conviction. I can see the outlines of my true nature by re-examining some of the conditions of my existence when I awaken. Everything I think I know is based on ideas I do not or cannot directly know. My traditional worldview… Continue reading My existential primitives
