      the environment maintains the basin “you” reside in. physical env triggers are a big part of this. prior to every city becoming homogeneous, travel could anneal the mind by rejiggering into a new local minimim

      facebook’s theory is that the virtual world can provide mental inputs that eventually will be equal to if not greater than physical environment stimulus. for many nerdy/geeky types this was *true* growing up.

      yet how many times have u watched someone go “so long social media peoples, i’m going back to Reality b/c now i have a Life” and then a week later they come back it’s almost as if part of the soul is trapped in the identity formed on social media

      there are also other ways of triggering these experiences like meditation, drugs, insight, sex, childbirth, wedding, funeral, car crash, etc...

      the specific thing doesn’t matter imo. a trap is to fall in love with an idea like the Ultimate Wedding, the Greatest Trip, the Perfect Partner, etc...

      psychedelic junkies for ex literally try to maximize neural annealing but many still go back to habitual use over and over again like a dog trying to jump out a pit (same for many meditators)

      from their perspective they are of course jumping from pit to higher pit, literally ascending into heaven or something. moving towards THE holy global maximum.

      an successful annealing that has locked to a new floor has a telltale signal: it makes you cry. yep, all that “you” that is holding “you” together? that’s not your friend

      well... it sorta is. but in the same way an inexperienced new dog owner decides to adopt 3 damaged pitbulls out of moral virtue. does more harm than good.

      the inability to cry prevents the new established state from becoming an attractor basin because the old space refuses to be let go and put to rest. like a social media identity it pulls you back like a bungee

      the psychedelics/ecstasy/meditation to ultrawork maximize the amount of happiness squeezed out of a life is a cloyingly sweet mockery of what a real life involves. it uses a happiness credit card to pay down the old one.

          like a ponzi scheme, this only works when the line of credit increases over time as more people are pulled in to this Cult of The Secret. once the faith/credit-line maxes out, the structure implodes through kool aid mass suicide

          if God drew a line between the point in space-time that you’re stuck in now and the point where you die. that line would cross the point that is the Life you are looking for.

          that point does not exist because where you are now by definition is where you are in your life. it’s just difficult to see this because most are forcibly being dragged backwards instead of walking forwards with eyes open

          you ARE living your life. you just don’t accept it you keep looking for your life as if it were a point in space-time when it’s more about orienting yourself as a vector in the right direction

          that Perfect Wedding where you marry your Perfect Partner and have Perfect Sex to Perfectly Fulfill you? the perfection isn’t what will make you two complete it’s the crying
