God in the flesh — JAY Z

We got a “god of war” (video game)— yet we modern day humans aren’t permitted to strive to become a god?

How to become a god?

Ancient Greece

What does it mean to be a god,,, how does one become it?

First, let us consider Ancient Greece. How did they see the god(s)?

1. First, no monotheistic singular god. Also the ancient Greeks and Romans created gods in their own (flawed) images.

How did we believe in monotheistic god from polytheistic

The transition from polytheism, the belief in many gods, to monotheism, the belief in a single god, is a complex process that has occurred in various cultures and religious traditions over millennia. This shift can be attributed to several factors, including social, political, philosophical, and theological developments. Here’s an overview of how some societies have moved from polytheism to monotheism:

Sociopolitical Factors

• Centralization of Power: In some cases, the rise of a central authority or a powerful state necessitated a unifying religious practice or belief system. Monotheism, with its single divine authority, could parallel and legitimize a centralized earthly authority.
• Conquest and Empire: The expansion of empires often brought diverse peoples and their gods into contact. Monotheism could serve as a unifying force among different ethnic and cultural groups within an empire, facilitating governance and social cohesion.

Philosophical and Theological Evolution

• Philosophical Rationalism: In some cultures, philosophical inquiry led to questioning the existence of multiple gods and moving towards a more abstract, singular concept of divinity. This was partly influenced by the desire to understand the universe in a more coherent and unified way.
• Ethical Monotheism: The idea that moral values and laws originate from a single divine source contributed to the shift towards monotheism. This concept emphasized the universality and unchangeability of moral law, which resonated with the emerging social orders and ethical philosophies.

Historical Examples

• Ancient Israel: The transition from the worship of multiple deities to the worship of Yahweh alone is documented in the Hebrew Bible. This process involved prophetic movements that emphasized exclusive worship of Yahweh and associated ethical and social reforms.
• Zoroastrianism: Ancient Persia witnessed a significant religious reform under the prophet Zoroaster, who preached the worship of Ahura Mazda as the supreme god, contrasting with the traditional Iranian polytheism. Zoroastrianism introduced many concepts that influenced later monotheistic religions.
• Hellenistic Period: The philosophical developments during the Hellenistic period, especially among the Platonists and Stoics, often leaned towards monotheistic or monistic views, considering a single principle or god as the source of all reality.
• Christianity and Islam: Both emerged within polytheistic societies and spread the belief in one God. Their growth was facilitated by various factors, including missionary activities, political support, and the appeal of their universal messages.

Conclusion

The transition from polytheism to monotheism was not a single, uniform process but occurred differently across various cultures and historical periods. It involved a complex interplay of social, political, and intellectual factors, reflecting the changing ways in which societies understood the divine and the cosmos.

Some people think life is a game, or play?

1. We want to live untethered?

So in my apartment, there are two spots—

First, one spot in Seneca’s bedroom which directly faces the direct sun ,,, which gets the direct light and sun on my beautiful topless body and face. The other spot in the kitchen and living room is only occidental, incidental sun, reflected from the apartment building across from us.

In the kitchen and living room, you get natural light, but it ain’t direct. Thus the thought:

There is a difference of living in the direct sun, direct access to the direct sun vs having light but having it simply *REFLECTED* unto you?

Standing big and tall, facing the elements — facing frontwards, towards the sun, elements,,, future…

The (W)rapper building

PDF —

So I walk by this building and drive by it everyday. 5790 Jefferson. The other day after going to Whole Foods with Seneca, walking back home via the bike path, and I saw the building from the side and this is what I realized:

It is like a futuristic, Futurism architecture building concept like a man, bravely marching to and towards the future, head-on… directly standing tall and marching towards the direct sun and lights.

And this is what I realized:

The vision is to become massive, big, strong, tall… marching bravely towards and forwards to the future!

Super SAIYAN goals —

New goal: to become a mass monster?

Become like Arnold?

The cult of iron

WHAT *SHOULD* WE WANT, CRAVE AND DESIRE?

ALLOW FOR DYNAMIC CHANGE!

To do “more” is a slave mentality

12 bitcoins like owning 12 houses?

Or enough to support 12 children?

Now that it looks like London has approved the crypto ETN — exchange traded notes … looks like Bitcoin will just continue to soar from here on end!

I have a strange sense of pride ,,,

1. I disdain being part of clubs, memberships ,,, anything that requires checking in or scanning in?

Not the past, ideals, ethics, rules guidelines heuristics philosophies etc.

A stubborn refusal of the past, a healthy distaste of authority, and also ,,, forgetfulness as a virtue?

The problem with today’s generation isn’t race, gender sex etc … but rather … everyone is becoming more and more asexual?

1. The young generation doesn’t seem interested in sex, having kids, the future etc.

2. Also — nihilism. “None of it matters”— it is all the same anyways. When there is no longer any differentiation between the sexes — male and female, it all seems pointless

3. Also the fear of being judged … the fear of sticking out, being exceptional. Modern day society even says:

All is the same. Nobody is exceptional.

Durability is the most critical and core component.

For example, I’m starting to really enjoy this Lululemon license to train T-shirt, my fuchsia pink purple pink clay shirts; it is so insanely durable. I’ve washed it 1 million times, and it still maintains the same luster shine and fit is when I bought it brand new.

Compare this to the half dozen outlier.NYC merino wool shirts I have gone through; which has insanely poor durability. After about 4 to 5 months of use, they all disintegrate.

Thus, at the end of the day; durability is the most critical component. Prioritize and optimize for this.

Even with human beings; we should strive to become more durable? What kind of exercises, muscles, activities can we do optimize our bodily, muscular durability?

Also we ordered we should also optimize for durability? To create durable artwork and ideas and philosophies and creations?

LIFE IS A PUZZLE?

SENECA LOVES PUZZLES!

TRUE POWER;; THE POWER TO CHILL?

The power to not ‘do’ anything?
