The fundamental nature of a human being is to know thyself. That’s why we are here, on this planet, at this time. We are here to forget, remember, and embody what we are — that which throughout time and space, we come to call: my soul, embodied.

That sacred combination which creates the unnameable mystery that is Life, in flow… for infinity.

When we know ourselves — not “know” intellectually as in “savoir”, but “know” viscerally as in connaître — we not need to look for god out there. We find god in here. In that, we can never again be separated from the source of creation.

What freedom to know-connaîtrethis about ourselves! What freedom to know ourselves! What an indescribable feeling, a visceral sensation only a body can know.

I remember my elders when I was young. They’d speak of lived experience as the ultimate form of “knowing.” I didn’t fully understand yet, but I felt the truth of it, in my bones. They were speaking of something so deeply profound which I would eventually discover for myself.

As individual souls which are never not-whole, we arrive on this planet to have an experience of living as a human being. What is that? The highest order expression of a life worthy of it’s having lived is discovering: what AM I?

I am not this body.
I am not this mind.
I am not these thoughts.
I am not this identity.
I am not this personality.
I am not these feelings.
I am not this nervous system.
I am not this disease.
I am not merely an observer.
I am not merely embodied.
I am not separate, yet I’m not them.

What if, I AM.

I am all of that, and more.

I cannot describe what is indescribable, in words.

The longing for god breeds the kind of existential crisis we have never experienced before. The outcome of which has already led to the most terrifying existence of all: the moment where sacred intelligence chooses to desecrate itSelf to the mimicry of artificial so-called intelligence.

To be or not to be: the ultimate question of embodying our essence or living in denial of it. The outcome of each, evident to anyone simply willing to see.


This blog was inspired by a talk by one of my favourite people: Dr. Ian Gilchrist titled “AI and the battle for the Soul.”
