Strange.  That looks like computer-generated text, verging on the nonsensical.  I can't make heads or tails of it.  Like something penned by the PoMo Generator...?
Could be some kind of "generator" involved; may be it's just the guy's head -- off his meds or on LSD. Funny thing is that his references kinda make sense to me: Gelasseneheit, wei wu wei, niskama karma, mu shin, sati/smrti, choiceless awareness -- these are all related and I have written on them here and elsewhere as such. It almost seems like a kind of cryptogram. The more I read it, the more it makes sense to me. First, it looks like there are several repeating refrains and random insertions that need to be "bracketed." Then there are a number of verbs and nouns not being used in their usual semantic manner; their sense might be located through a look at their usage in context. Weird, eh? I like it.

It reads like philosophical automatic writing. Intriguing!

"Huxley finds himself in agreement with philosopher C.D. Broad that to enable us to live, the brain and nervous system eliminates unessential information from the totality of the Mind at Large "
Wasn't there an "Unbearable Automaticity of Being" thread? Forum archivist?
Yes, there was.  I will look to see if I saved a copy of that thread (guessing it was on the older forum?).

Hahaha. thats funny. often enough when I write a post I want to wind up with a couple of sentences like that. a medicinal touch to abstraction, the domestic kind

What paths lie ahead for religion and spirituality in the 21st Century? How might the insights of modernity and post-modernity impact and inform humanity's ancient wisdom traditions? How are we to enact, together, new spiritual visions – independently, or within our respective traditions – that can respond adequately to the challenges of our times?

This group is for anyone interested in exploring these questions and tracing out the horizons of an integral post-metaphysical spirituality.
