This document discusses how humanity has lost its original grounding and essence over time. It talks about people trying to fill the "holes" in their essence through control and order, but this causes their grounding to slip away further. The more control people seek, the more it allows others to control them in turn. The document suggests letting go of control and order to regain a natural essence and grounding.

2. long ago we lost our grounding/essence

3. a hole is nothing but the absence of a certain part of our
essence. .however to say we have lost parts of essence does not
mean they are gone forever; they are never gone forever.. when you’re a
baby, you have no holes; you are complete when you are born. ..

the control of the stock becomes the central point
inequity not on shift to agri but on stockpiling/accumulation.. whether thru
agri or foraging.. the control of the stock becomes the central point
precisely not interpreted in terms of the immediate ecological analysis.. but
the point to understanding the emergence of social control/protection

the more our grounding/essence keeps slipping

trying to cope by filling holes with their (or most likely someone else’s)

instruments for inspectors to inspect inspectors

it may be that some brains could stand to have a little more entropy, not less
- Robin Carhart-Harris
Carhart-Harris suggests that the psychological ‘disorders’ at the low entropy end of the
spectrum (ie: narrow or rigid thinking; addiction; obsessive compulsive disorder;
depression; anesthesia; and finally, coma) are not the result of a lack of order in the
brain but rather stem from an excess of order
