Mr. Ananda - What's Your Point - Introduction to My Essential Burdens (N001)
— What are you doing? Why are you doing all of this? What's your point? Okay then. It's been a long road crossing three decades. A relentless ride to the summit, depths, and beyond of whatever all that is. These are my accumulations. I'm dealing with the lot. Some information in the bag. Some wisdom under the hat. As in, recognition of patterns and their proactive reflection. Fruity roots of diverse traditions. Synthesis of their essentials. These are the ingredients in my continuum, the spices of my life. I'm churning, I'm cooking. Whatever that comes of it. If you like it — cool. If you don't — it's fine. Nevermind — just doing my thing here. ≓(A+M-O)≒ #Introspectrum #MrAnanda #WhatsMyPoint #ShortBackStory #EssentialBurdens #WhateverItsWorth #AnandaICU -
On Entering Actuality - What's Going On Meditation (N002)
For those who seek clarity and self-awareness — a primer into the "What's Going On Meditation". — Get to know your contents — understand your inner constructs. — Instincts, emotions, thoughts, identity — none of that is you. — Polarized reactions — yes this, no that — condition you to the core. Rise beyond the phenomena in your being. Enter the planes of metacognition. Witness what is — enter raw actuality. Clear away your projections.

Insight Looming Works - A Knowledge Processing Ecosystem (N003)
— What's in the works here? Let's have an overview. In short: A complete knowledge processing ecosystem. Not for a pile of data — but for a living loom of insight. Weaving patterns that matter, spinning threads that are true. Our insight-churning operations advance on several fronts:
— #AXO.PUB: Publishing in multiple tunings and formats.
— #AXO.DIG: Research and extraction of diverse sources.
— #AXO.DEV: Code works to support and streamline it all.
— #AXO.AOS: AI collab framework to scale and synthesize. All of this — first and foremost for all of you. Opening perspectives. Building parallel bridges. Resolving our conflicts. Harmonizing our orientations.
— For us to have clear resources and coherent bearings.
— For recognizing the underlying unity of all knowledge.
— For a return to reality and unbinding from conditions. Have a look — and if something should ring a bell — Then let me know. Leave a comment. Drop a message yes.

If You Seek Clarity - Leave Your Battlefields (K001)
😶🌫️ Do You Seek Clarity? 😯 Then leave your battlefields. Exit the prison mesh of reactivity. Seek a plane beyond problems — where solutions are witnessed. Rise above your assertions that trap your recognition. Witness as neutral: instincts, emotions, thought-forms, inner atmospheres. Not you. Let go of craving for fullness and emptiness too. No agenda. Seat yourself as a nothing: in the absolute convergence point of everything. There you may yet find clarity. Be well. #KernelTalks #IntoClarity #AnandaICU #WitnessPlane #ZeroAssertion #AsItIs -
Keep Your Windows Clean - Clarity in Perspective (K002)
🪟 Keep Your Windows Clean 🪩 Clarity is not from knowledge. Clarity is from perspective. Simple. Big picture first. Details later. Neutral stance. No agenda. Look at what is — in your windows of metacognition. Eight domains of framed action. Four underlying influences. We cover the basics here. Boot up "MetaWindows.OS" — your cognitive operating system. Keep it clean. Clarity is natural and unavoidable. You will not find it anywhere else. You will find it right here — with precise orientation — unclouded by your projections. Actuality as it is. #KernelTalks #IntoClarity #AnandaICU #MetaWindows #WitnessPlane #AsItIs -

⏰ Mr. Wakey Man! Why so obsessed trying to wake people up? Leave it alone. Let it be! Who put you in charge of wake-ups. But it is in the balance of all things. Simple counter-reflection. Simple: Sleeping 🔀 Alarm Clocks. Coma 🔀 Catalytic Injections. 💤 If only your slumber were happily isolated. But it's not. We have hallucination at scale. It's consequential. It's harmful.

How Do You Feel? — Like an Open Book (OM001)
— "How do you feel?", asked an old friend. I feel alright. No longer vexed by existence. Patterns swooshing through space as they may. I bind not to it. I am not — and it's fine. And what of the world? What of the planet? What of religion and spirituality? Of us all? Of your personal life? Of your inner state? — "How do you feel about all that?" I feel like an open book. I open up as one. Then a free share of plain musings for you. May you all have peace from your troubles. May you find your fulfillment and freedom. Keep it well. Be real. _#OpenMusings #Feels #HowDoYouFeel #AtEase #AtPeace #NobodyHome #BackYard #Freedom #Fulfillment_ -
Make Waves! Don't Just Reflect! — But What Am I? (OM002)
— "Make your waves!", said one new friend. — "Don't you just reflect!", said another new friend. But what is this "I" that should be splashing and casting, and why should it ripple about without rhyme and reason? Yes there's a certain void in a "post-resigned" awareness. No longer a subject hallucination at the high driver's seat. Yes we carry our pool of patterns and potentials for waves. Let them watch themselves and self-organize into a concert. When your potentials are "hi-jacked" for self-assertion, this meddling results in a departure from their actuality. You create ripples yes — but they do not match the receptors. Patient abiding is a virtue — let contexts invoke your waves. If we blast out our waves with no regard for the environment, it yields but stress and suffering when integration is unlikely. Waste not your patterns and potentials — all in turn, all in time. Not passive reflection; not active projector; in the midst of it. _#OpenMusings #Waves #Reflections #SelfExpression #Resignation #ZeroSubject #Potentials #Actuality #MiddleWay #AnandaICU_ -
Open See Same — Close See Other — Our Shared Threads (OM003)
We humans are like apples. In a thousand cultivars. Spectrum of colors and flavors. A world of diversity. Nutrition in each. Vitamins are universal. Do you see? Or argue about your favorite — and all the bad flavors? *✋🏻 Open — See Same. We are together. 🫱🏻👁️🫲🏻 🤜🏻 Close — See Other. We are apart. 🫸🏻💥🫷🏻 *— When you open your mind.* You see the sameness. *— When you close your mind.* You see the difference. Focusing on the patterns, we advance unification. Focusing on the specifics, we advance separation. Alas, we often default to the side of distinction. We exaggerate our differences and cherish contrast. Seeking for superiority, establishing our pedestals. Contrived divisions become the seeds of our discord. Let us open our perspectives. Our visions. Our hearts. Opening the door for mutually fulfilling co-existence. Seeking the hidden patterns that shape our shared map. Closing the eye that fixates on divisions in diversity. Yes: Let there be diversity. Let there be commonality too. Diversity is the art of becoming. Commonality is the heart of being. _#OpenMusings #OpenSeeSame #UnityInDiversity #Sameness #SharedPatterns #MapTogether #Commonality_ -
A Core Package — Basic Message in a Clear Bottle (OM004)
— "So what is it that you wish to say?" ...asked no-one in particular, so I heard. Good question though — thanks for asking. Alright then. One neat baseline package for you. What I seek to communicate and share in thousand ways. 1. May we get over the narrow selves we're boxed into. Our tunnels: the fractured little identities we guard. Separating us from the whole and warping our awareness. 2. May we get over our habit-driven unconscious reactions. Choices without awareness bind us and compromise our freedom. Instinct, emotion, intellect, identity — liberate it all. 3. Attend to general patterns — zoom out from the details. We find parallel and familiar insight across all contexts. We recognize the same loops we repeat in a thousand ways. 4. Attend to your primary perspectives of orientation. We have basic cognitive tunings and windows of attention. Eight human frames. Four elemental movers. Roots of awareness. None of this is "philosophy". You need but zone in and see. 5. Accept and relate to the fact of perpetual change. Where all of this is impermanent in the flux of change, obsession with fixed roles and frames leads to suffering. These are the basic goods in a short package. None of this is newly created, invented, or hypothetical. Most of this is tragically forgotten in our world. As to the final question that follows, "What do you hope to get out of all this?" Covered in the tail end of the reel yes. Fast-forward if the rest bores you mindless. _#OpenMusings #Baselines #CorePackage #LittleSelf #Reactions #PatternCognition #PrimaryOrientation #ChangeRealism_ 🧬 Metaloom Reviews

I Believe in Patterns and Symbols (M001)
Do you believe in all this stuff? You've got the Buddhas and the Krishnas and the Jesus and the Mahdi, and the Donald Duck whatever going on there. Are you trolling around? What do you actually believe in? Let's unpack the story, the myth, the belief as to what's actually going on here. - Is Jesus actually real or is he just a reframed solar myth? - Do I believe that Krishna wrestled the whirlwind demon in the sky? - Do I believe that the Buddha walked up and down the stairway to heaven? - And do I believe in God (of yours, of mine, of the other person)? In short, do I believe in all these tales? No, I don't believe literally in any of these tales, including the tales of our lives. They too are made of symbols, a fabric of patterns. It does all add up when you understand the patterns. You master the pattern and you see the countless algorithms churning off the same basic substance. I believe in patterns, I believe in symbols. I believe in archetypal weaves that cycle over and over again, in parallel, recursively, across every domain and every level, plane, tier of life and existence. Take that, make of it what you will. I hope that it improves your life, brings you more peace, brings you more clarity, brings you more harmony on your path ahead. Be well.

Cognitive Tower of Babel and Multimodal Pattern Casting (M002)
Casting of abstract patterns and expansion of cognitive circuitry. Not just for the amusement of cosmopolitan musings. That too but. But there's more in the works here. Here we reframe all things. Fields of nuance are spread across countless semantic fields. This is a pattern farming exercise. Hybridization of symbols. Distilled essence is seeded and harvested from diverse fields. In their scattering and re-coming-together, the core grows broader. Broader and taller — yes, the Tower of Babel v.12 beta in the works. Smite ye furies from the heavens! Meitä ei sellaset taivojumit nappaa. Bhinneka tunggal ika katanya resi kuno? Ati-tattva-dharma-vastutvena. Happily they build, weaving their looms, hustling with their brooms. Hustling is an anagram of sunlight — but we're not quite that mad yet. Yet we account for the moonshine. Sun and starlight, the reaches of space. These are the voyages of rapshits serpentire. Where no moon has gone before. No, not about a bout of glossolalia. Not symptomatic of temporal aphasia. Phasers locked. You will be assimilated. Beam me up, Mr. Spock. Logical. In the fifth paragraph, I can safely write what the cryptum hell ever. I've lost 99% of my readers at the third sentence of the first parameter.

Your Deconstruction — Pattern Vortex in a Silly Self-Box (M003)
⚠️ Viewer discretion advised. We open the gates of a one-way road. If your inner stability hinges on the illusions that support you — please scroll onward — or close this view right now. Seriously yes. (If you proceed and your fragile world collapses. You were warned.) We publish this for the few seasoned souls who can handle raw reality. If you are ready to gut your hallucinations; to deconstruct your veils; Then please continue. Yes. Proceed with your categorical deconstruction. Should you soil your pants in the process. Who you gonna call? Nobody. — You and the world: Twined vortex of patterns in a kaleidoscope. Your problem: Carving out a slice of the pool for your pedestal. Process: Illusory individuation through selective identification. Result: Inevitable desync and collapse of your hallucinated self. When you frame yourself into a silly little box you operate from; Wasting your days forcing your squares into complex living geometry; You harvest disappointment, suffering, disillusionment in the end. Waste not your fullness living the life of a craven ghost fragment. Instinct. The visceral world. Imperatives of survival and evolution. Emotion. Valence. Affects and reactions. The stimulating colors of life. Cognition. Schemes. Perception and analysis. Anyone for clear recognition? Identity. Self-conceit. Operative roles. Aggregating shell of your life. Planes of patterns binding you. Planes of reflection and guidance as well. Patterns most informative. Constellations. When seen from a neutral space. Deep mainstream calls for your attention. Direction from the loom of all. Deny then the flux of your essence — race back to your dark little caves. The price to pay for absolute knowledge: Your hallucinated everlasting soul. There's your epic endgame battle — slay your love of subject self. — What lies beyond? Watchers seekers. (= Watch that video?) Finders keepers. (= Carry what clicks.) Mirror see'ers. (= Reflect and witness.) Chilled be'ers. (= Relax and let be.) Into the dawn of your new sense and source of inspiration. Into reflected actuation of all that ever might we sight.

Operational Ego - Our Roles and Instruments (M005)
Your "the ego"? There is no such monolithic ego. We are complex entities — not one-dimensional blobs. You are a rich system of concern domains in a stack. We operate in diverse contexts with our capacities. Our contextual attention directs our "incarnations". You cannot get rid of "the ego" as a whole. You can't also learn to live with "the ego". Nor can you elevate "the ego" to a lofty platform. Because no singular "the ego" exists to begin with. Your planes of operation each have their functions. Instinctual ego. Fear, hunger, fatigue — necessary chores. Emotional ego. Happiness, sadness, hope — counseling feels. Analytical ego. Sorting this from that — informative insight. Cohesive ego. Mapping relations and meanings — life as a whole. But must you then choose one for "that is me" and attach to it. Can you not just use the instrument, operate the role in its turn — and then put your tools to the shed and return to the free backstage? When need and context have passed — why should you linger on the stage? We all know that weird actor who can't shake off the role. How are you any different when you're stuck on your trip — Playing that favorite role after the curtains have closed? All upset and suffering when the rest of reality doesn't sync? There is existence beyond holding on to a mask for dear life. It functions perfectly fine too, better without your tentacles. If you truly can't keep yourself together without a fixed mask, then okay — but reflect on this when the mask starts cracking: — Operate the system of egos. Don't incarnate as a fragment. _#MetaLoom #Ego #Masks #Roles #Identity #Actor #Instruments #DramaFixation #SelfConcept #NonSelf #OperationID_ 🏕️ Backyard Stream

Overview of Purification - Body, Speech and Mind (I001)
Purification of the body, speech and mind as necessary preconditions for progress and the attainment of balanced and wholesome states of being. Impurities, sustained through habitual conditioning and lack of introspection, hinder our progress, distort our experiences, and generate misery in our lives. Including: - Preparing a Clean Receptacle - Pure Goods in Pure Container - Acknowledgement of Impurities and Habitual Operation - Attachment and Ego (Self-Attachment) as Roots and Drivers of Impurity - Purification of Body (Taming the physical body, ethics in our interactions) - Purification of Speech (As truthful, kind, meaningful, timely and well-intentioned) - Purification of Mind (Purifying the faculties and contents of the mind) -
Integrated Ethics - Wisdom in Interaction (I002)
Principles of interaction that lead to harmonic and fulfilling coexistence are a core aspect of the path of practice toward self-purification. A clear ethical foundation, rooted in reflection and wisdom, is the guide and guardian of our life in the world that we, through contemplation and experience, establish for ourselves. Including: - Integrated Ethics: Principles of interaction that benefit all sentient beings with equal measure - Discovery, extraction and validation of ethical principles, owning the responsibility for our lives - Orientation: Self-centered vs. integrated perspective, the needs of the collective and myself in it - Fundamental Rights of Beings: Unto their bodies, property, self-expression, freedom, and truth - Positive and Negative Applications: Truth/don't lie; Protect/don't steal; Heal/don't harm - Intention is Essential: Seek to act by your best judgment; oversights and accidents happen in life - Field of Reflections: Being an empathic mirror of the world, adapting to the needs in each situation - Fruits of the Mirror: Receiving the reflections of all relief, joy, and evolution we contribute to - Mindset: Detachment, not attachment; Goodwill, not malice; Understanding, not ignorance - Understanding: Insight into constitutions, conditioning, contexts, with emergent foresight - Outcome: Harmonic and mutually beneficial existence and interaction; the shedding of our veils -
The Pristine Power and Essence of Purity (I003)
Purity is the forerunner, pioneer, and the clearer of fields. Purity is the guide, teacher, and guardian of our life's journey. Purity is the ultimate revealer, the great absolver, and the final accomplishment in our existence. The fruits of evolution that unfold with purity at the helm are wonderful, yet purity unto itself, unconditionally, is our primary concern. Including: - Purity of intention and pristinity of the spirit - Purity as the beginning, middle and end of our journey - Purity as a clearing and liberating force that drives our good evolution - Purity for its own sake, not as a means to an end, and its spontaneous rewards - Purity leads to clarity, actuality, and unveiling through freedom from distortions - Purity generates a wholesome space for the integration and harmonization of our existence - When challenges emerge and the shadows of the unconscious arise, it is our shield and defender - The proud intellectual and the mechanical spiritualist are baffled before their own darkness - Any God, divinity, unity, or sanctity that we may seek, is attained only via the path of purity - With purity, all obstacles, fears and evils are overcome and transmuted into a new reality -
The Good Life - Selfless Integration - (I004)
A fractured and broken self seeking to make its stance in a world of conflict and suffering — alas, the depths of tragedy in this self-shaped little box. Harmonic interaction and reconciled engagement are only ever realized through selfless integration with the collective.

Haunted Hearts - Fear and Its Dark Children (R001)
Fear is a primary and primal state of mind, a fruit of evolution for our survival. Yet fear will run amok when ungrounded in actuality — and for those who'd rather exist with a peaceful mental baseline, the taunting work of evaluating and addressing fear and its children is not optional. Actionable threats should be reviewed with reason, appropriate response models should be implemented. Internal haunting should be reflected upon with introspection, the self should be immunized against self-generated ominous disturbances. Do not assume the worst. Do not assume the best. Be a neutral realist. Whatever that life may dish out for you, it's all fuel for your evolution. Embrace it for all its worth. -

We are also explaining the Deep, the Deepak and the Deepsit levels of guruness, and how the guru is the revealer of the unbroken mandala in which all the moving and the non-moving things are moving and not moving, and with utmost respect to that principal. We should like to elucidate upon the origin of all the things, thusly the spiritual knowledge of the first poet that confuses even the too many gods, and how the universe is created with the playing of the water and the fire, and how is the transcendental spiritual abode that is free of pollution and the absolute truth as we meditate upon it.

Good Morning and Mindful Day and Night (R004)

We have the world of nature's essences. We have the social world of interactions. We have the great arch of meaning for all that we do. Recall these.

Dealing with Desire - Transcend the Churning (R005)
Pushes and pulls of our existence. We need to deal with them, we need to navigate wisely. That wisdom begins with recognition, clear understanding, and introspection. We separate need and want. We comprehend and contextualize desire. We understand its ephemerality, the waves of its coming and going, the hallucinatory nature of the "objects" we pursue. In time, we wane down the pull and push of desire, and with our sustained practice, we substitute a higher taste and path of fulfillment to occupy the space desire once held in our consciousness. We recondition ourselves. -

There will be progressive settling and a radiant blankness, a canvas over which we can regenerate the essences of our life. Pure planes of clear and undisturbed blankness, folding into a clean palace of prime consciousness. Go scrub it all clean. -
Emotions in the Spectrum of Living Experience (R007)
Dealing with emotions and mental states, positive and negative, as integral aspects of the complete living experience of an incarnate consciousness. What must dispel is simply our subjective value assessments, the like/hate, attachment/aversion dynamic that leads to compounding complications and unease. Whatever the mental experience, that's what it is. Accept and understand. Move on. -
Great Guru Quest vs. Subject Veiling (R008)
Our romantic quest for the realized teacher is compromised by our present condition. Subject veiling shrouds our vision and restricts our reflective field of experience. Innate guru, latent and immanent in all things, ever-manifests in proportion to the clearing and reformation of your consciousness. Seek your own integrity first. A reflected teacher, the high guru of the wisdom in all things themselves, will accompany you at all times, in all places, guiding you out from the matrix of your hallucinations. Do not chase the phantoms. Unveil the actuality before you. 🪣 Other Videos
