A little description of the game:

"You see, you'll start off as more of a Baby Beluga than a Moby Dick. You'll barely be able to jump out of the water and most fish can outswim you. So, you'll have to bulk up by eating some humans. There's a couple ways to separate man from his ship. You can come up from the deep and nudge the bottom of the boat and when you get bigger you can slap them with your tail or land on them after a jump. You can grow up to 100 tons (or 2,000 health points). Of course, the bigger you get the hungrier you'll be. For awhile all you have to do is worry about surviving the spears and cannonballs of sailors, but eventually you get a new enemy: your metabolism."

It was my understanding that "Moby Dick" was a venereal disease.
The point of McKenna's second book was that "Moby Dick" was Melville's spiritual autolysis.

[snowblind]

you can get a shot for that yanno....and autolysis is not that different from recapitulation, its all to show that in fact...there is nothing to lose because all the things you believed were true...generally are not. Therefore you can operate from a clear slate...tableau blanca? is that right?

[Lunoor]

I am laughing because the description of the game reminds me of the pickle barrel in chat which is not making indulgers thinner.



The repetition is utter doomsday.





And, autolysis is such a dry word for the work, a little autolie siss on the words part.

[Turin Otzaki]

"Allegiance to any spiritual teaching or teacher-any outside authority-is the most

treacherous beast in the jungle. The first thing we want to do when we begin our

journey is find the companionship and validity that comes with an established

group, and in so doing we effectively end the journey before it begins.....

The power of our devotion to teachers and teachings is not a reflection of their

value, but of ego's will to survive. It's ego-the false self-that exalts the guru

and declares the teaching sacred...."
