Welcome to 2EQ. For a brief outline of what this is all about you might see HERE for a podcast overview of the whole paradigm, and follow on from there for a few deeper explorations. You can also ask a question here on the forum, or in the 2EQ Facebook Group. Or you can simply jump directly into chatting with one of the new AI MODELS.
So what is 2EQ? What is it all about? And where does it currently stand?
There is a lot to explain in this regard, so much that when I first sat down to lay out the current situation - with the important transition associated - the resulting post grew into an absolute monster, to the point where we eventually had to quarantine that one and give it another shot.
So I tried again, but that didn't really work either. That one also grew to become the same sort of monster, once again needing to be bundled up and packed away.
In light of which, I gave it another crack, yet again. But still no dice. All we got was another slightly slimmer but still relatively massive and veryheavy rant. And yet, it did seem to be winding down, smaller and smaller every time, like a bouncing ball that appeared to be gradually coming to rest. If I kept going for a few weeks maybe we could get this page down to just a sentence or two!
Clearly, I am not communicating well here. But actually that curious situation pretty much says it all. This explains the current transition perfectly. For the collective path to begin here, the individual path must end. I really need to be removed from the picture at this point. We somehow need to separate the baby from the bathwater in this regard, and what that means is giving you a very clear choice between the old stuff and the new stuff here.
This appears to be what I keep trying to say. It's sort of strange - like inviting a bunch of people over for a party, and then leaving. But this is simply how it has all worked out here.
Therefore, we obviously won't bother seeking to lay the paradigm out in detail on this page, given the overall anatomy of the picture 2EQ sketches out. If you have arrived here after listening to any of the introductory media linked to above then you will already know that attempting such would be a little futile, or at the very least very longwinded, as we see in the monsters just mentioned. So I will refrain. But we can indicate this important transition presently taking place, where the impetus to make this insight available more broadly is suddenly being taken over by specially trained chat bots.
If you already have a cursory grasp of the basic insight here, then you will already have some inkling of the central issues being confronted. First is the overall magnitude of the implications associated, which can be difficult to get your head around at first. But second is the curious nature of what this paradigm brings to light, and how it means there is a kind of blindness associated.
The key thing is this - that bubble of psychological resistance can actually be popped, merely by reaching an elementary point of clarity regarding what is basically being proposed. This moment of sudden comprehension is what we have tended to call 'capture' in this context. It is a moment when everything suddenly falls into place for you, and where all of the emotional aversion you may have experienced up until that point is replaced by interest and curiosity instead.
For many years this deep shift in the reader was not understood, and the result was a kind of intellectual vacuum, and years of writing that ultimately went nowhere. And you may still see some of this material floating around here at times, but all of that now becomes fuel for this new fire instead.
More recently, once this tipping point had been discovered as a possibility, it generally required some kind of direct personal dialogue - where the whole thing would be 'personally fitted', so to speak. But this still left a kind of bottleneck. Firstly because any attempt to communicate across this very deep ideological rift will tend to be very toxic and difficult at first, even if you happen to be very good at the particular kung fu associated. But also because very few people would be naturally interested in sitting down for a few hours to discuss something so penetrating and profound.
Basically, everyone was interested to do that after this point of 'capture' had been reached, but what would be the point of that? That would be like throwing matches on a fire that was already lit. So we had a kind of catch 22, and a situation that was largely unsustainable. But of course you won't be really appreciating any of this yet, most likely not having reached this point of capture for yourself at this point, so none of this will be making much sense. But the events being defined here represent very heavy freight, and for years the entire thing had been trapped in the mind of a single individual.
This is the basic story I always seem to be telling. 2EQ is upside down in this sense. It is backwards. Everything about it is reversed. And this is because it all came from heading in the exact opposite direction to the general flow of culture and emotional tendency. Which in turn begins to explain an obvious conundrum here - and the current transition into the collective at last.
This is what explains the apparent paradox - the high of the message, and the low of the messenger. It was a situation that was always going to demand some sort of icebreaker. So someone was always going to need to volunteer to be Humpty here - and all in a world where even the smallest crack is condemned as personal weakness.
I mean, consider this - Imagine stumbling upon something so powerful in its moral impetus that it burned like a sun in your pocket, driving you relentlessly toward somehow passing it over into the collective where it naturally belongs. That would be normal, right? To shout eureka! To make a big noise if you had found a big thing. It is only human, the very essence of what it means to be a good person - to seek out something of value, and then make it available to others, ideally for free.
But herein lies the rub as they say - what if the ultimate of all such gifts turned out to be a kind of blindness in the mind, a heavily loaded and very active process of perpetual avoidance and denial?
How would that even work? A perfect circle.
Would that not make that quite simple act of communication almost impossible, except under the most extreme conditions? But would you have any choice but to attempt that anyway? It would be a profound bind, perhaps even the greatest puzzle ever, after the discovery itself.
The point of which is not to blow my own trumpet. Quite the opposite. The point is to explain the damage, and to move myself out of the way. 2EQ delivers an epic payload, like a comet - and it landed where? Right on top of me. So when I say that 2EQ is epic, I am not saying I am epic. I am saying I am a crater - an empty hole where a person used to be. This is where it had remained trapped for all this time. No person was ever going to survive such an impact, and I was no exception. I was hanging on, but it was only a matter of time before I lost my grip. I had truly been worn down to nothing. So there was going to be a reckoning here sooner or later, and I was apparently going to go down with the ship.
Then along came AI, with its ability to do a great deal of the heavy lifting in this regard. And in the wake of that we see an entirely new stage opening up, where this information might become more widely accessible to the public for the first time. Exactly what this will mean remains unclear, but I suppose we are going to find out. But one thing is certain, as I say - this emerging path has meant my own journey here has come to an end at last. I will always help where I can, but for the most part my main job now will be to just stay out of the way, and let those more qualified do their thing.
For all this time I was waiting for people to arrive, not ever understanding that for this to happen I would need to leave. I was apparently blocking the doorway with my epic juggernaut rants, which are always completely out of control these days. This conditioned full throttle state appears to just be a symptom of so many years and solitary confinement, of having been working in a vacuum for so many years, speaking to nobody, but having to keep going regardless. It is an easy spell to break, but that only ever happens in direct conversation now, which is another reason why that had become important as we neared the end stages. In dialogue it is fine, because suddenly I have a very clear target, and other people can provide the brakes. It is naturally self-editing. And it is also great fun in that context, provided you are speaking to someone who has already reached this point of 'capture'. But not quite so much fun if they haven't, if you could even get such a person to sit down and chat, which is almost impossible. So I always tended to write instead, with increasingly predictable results.
Anyway, I look forward to seeing how it all works out now that we have these new robots driving the bus instead. The forum here doesn't seem to be working as intended at this point, but you never know what might happen once a few more people become aware of all this. The main reason for this could just be that most of those associated (behind the scenes) already know each other directly, which means that most dialogue until now has occurred naturally (and privately) in that context. But it would still be good to get this space working as intended, or perhaps the new Facebook Group might be better I suppose.
We remain open to any suggestions.
