With history there is no game

[Leonidas]

If you want a deeply magical life of Freedom of the Spirit, you can't take your history with you.


It's not that you literally can't, but doing so would be from stupid to down right dangerous.


It's your history, what keeps you in self-pity.


It's your history, what keeps you defending your self-image.


It's your history, what keeps you resented and envious with the whole world.


It's your history, what keeps your brain chatter utterly out of control.


It's your history, what gives you social drives that have NOTHING to do with Spiritual Freedom.


It's your history, what prevents Power from descending on you and staying with you.


It's your history, what binds you.


It's your history, what makes you **** over and over and over.


You are free to keep it, but, as a friend, I wouldn't recommend it.

IMO, if one has done an effective recapitulation, there is no need to drop personal history. That assumes all the negatives have been examined and dealt with. It's rather akin to the famous "life review" all supposedly go through at their death. Perhaps recapitulation is a life review prior to dying. Even so, it seems to me, our history defines us to a great degree. It would seem a stupid loss not to carry history from one life to the next since there seems no other way to gauge progress.

[Leonidas]

History as experience cannot be dropped. Our identification with it can.


For instance: Summer Dawne has made a complete recapitulation of his life (supposedly). What's with his attitude then?

[Gonzo]

Sure....identification with history is attaching to it, allowing it significant influence on current existence, which can be altered via recapitulation.



Summer Dawne would perhaps speak for himself, were he not banned.

I suppose when you re-capitulate...

you could deamarcate the past...

and then also demarcate "VEINS" of actions within the past...



there is a common core of time where you behaved exactley on cue within power...

and essentially were your assemblage to move.. you would wish the entire future to be only this form of power..

Its your attachment to your history that allows the universe to teach you the same lesson over and over till you get it and move forward. Maybe the universe really is benevolent....

By all means, allow yourself to be attached, carry on celebrating how monumentally stupid you are and justify it with the dumbest rationalizations I have ever heard (so far).


You trully are a piece of work.

That sounds more like "battling social conditioning"
It also sounds like quite a lot of womens fantasies...
ive got laid a few times... where it was the tension between,,
random Filthy debauchery---- and bohemian sex...
that made it happen...
once you strip it down into a socially rejectable scenario the only thing in pleasurable focus is "DA SHEX"..
its quite nice!

although i fear my reputation as a "stalker" may have taken an intonation i didnt relish!
