Meaning in the Connections and not the Connected Elements
Live from the Afterlife
by Randy and Elissa Bishop-Becker
3y ago
here is the text of this conversation: “Ok, let’s talk combining into more complex entities. Does that mean your spiritual entity connects with other entities? How physical! Think about it in more sharing terms. All that you are spiritually is open and available to the other elements of the greater complexity, not individually but collectively. It’s not like a frat mixer, it’s like an anthology. And the identity of the new entity is only real within itself. So the elements can sense and know the totality of the other elements but only within the reality of the greater complexity. If any entity ..read more

Rachel Maddow Style Program on Finite versus Infinite

here it the text of this conversation: “And now, a treat. Eri will pretend to be Rachel. “Hi, folks at home. This just in and I don’t know what to make of it. I think I understand but then I get to a point where the best I can do is just shake my head. So here goes: “It seems that we all are locked in finite existence. I know I am and assume you are, too. What I have been told is that of course the physical realm is finite but hold on to your hats… the spiritual realm is, too. But there’s more. Only at this complexity and those simpler. We can’t say for sure about more complex levels. So this ..read more

Five Questions About the Meaning of Existence and Our Potential
Live from the Afterlife
by Randy and Elissa Bishop-Becker
3y ago
This conversation is based on five questions which Rikkity had posed to us so we could prepare: What is the essence of existence.? Does existence have comparative states? Does complexity imply better? What if all existence is combined but there’s one piece missing, or one piece left over? The Jigsaw analogy. How does an entity progress in light of the answers to the foregoing questions? and the text of the conversation: “Yes, I know we are attempting the daring, trying to do pith while Merc is on the rampage. I saw him leaving town.  “Ok. Have you pondered? [E: You might call it that ..read more

Protopian vs Dystopian Focus

Here is the text of this conversation: “What were we going to talk about? [protopian models, thoughts, examples] Ah, protopian. Ok. “At any level of complexity of spirit there is a pattern of fulfillment and understanding and when an entity gets that, they move on. So. the implication is that all those entities at a level are somewhat unfulfilled—not getting it, work in progress. And there are a few which are works without progress, but they can’t sustain so in time they go bye-bye. So the overall reality is entities capable of fulfillment but not there yet. “Dystopian models focus on the ‘not ..read more

Organic vs Inorganic Meaning, Part 2
Live from the Afterlife
by Randy and Elissa Bishop-Becker

Here is the text of this conversation: “There may be two paths or more to a conclusion of meaning and the meaning is the same but one may be derivative and the other initial. Chuck had an initial meaning of Mach One plus, and there were others who speculated on it and thought it so, but they approached it from the side of not more than Mach One. “Ok, I will try another analogy. Someone who knows her herbs makes up a sauce based on their knowledge of herbs and their cultural traditions. Another person just tastes and cooks. Wintergreen. Would you eat a wintergreen candy? If you were a Brit, you ..read more

Organic vs Inorganic Meaning, Part 1

Here is the text of this conversation: June 14, 2020 “Ok. We are going to talk about organic meaning and inorganic meaning--or what might be called deductive meaning and inductive meaning, but I won’t call them that! “Organic meaning is the meaning which flows from experiences without interference of other systems. Inorganic meaning is the meaning, which is suggested by other systems. I will use a physical reference, but it applies to all meaning. “Everything that the prevailing systems of meaning said was that one could not go faster than sound, based on some kind of supposition. But then one ..read more

Spiritual Fulfillment is not a Product to be Sought
Live from the Afterlife

Here is the text of this conversation: “There is this push at the human level of spiritual complexity to be productive--one of the cute eccentricities of that state. But spirit does not have to be productive because it naturally is. So, it doesn't have to keep busy to pretend. The very act of spiritual connection is its own productivity. Being is sufficient. ‘But,’ they say, ‘Rikkity, don't we have to learn and remember?’ Sure. But without the pressure of time, what’s the rush. And I ask you, haven't you ever discovered meaning only after stopping your trying to find it. And also, productivity ..read more

Search for Meaning in the Universe

Here's the text of today's conversation: “Hi. [hey, sweetness.] So, pith or business. [your choice.] Pith.  “Ok, what’s this nonsense about life forms. They keep speaking about trying to find life forms elsewhere in the universe. What do they mean, carbon-oxygen-based sustainable entities? Or do they really mean sustainable spirit entities. If life is defined by what you get on Earth at this level of physical development, I would say two things: Who cares! and I hope not! Because to seek out more of the same as some form of validation is so limiting. And all it would mean is the equivalen ..read more

Spiritual Senses

Here is the text of this conversation: “Let's try some pith. I talked about eyes and ears and skin and even taste. But you see in your existence, it is the senses that gather information for you. Long ago, those simple creatures who let part of their neural network wander away from the brain found that having means to ascertain physical reality would ensure survival. ‘If I can't see the bad thingies, they might eat me. And if I can't hear you, you can sneak up and on me.’ So the physical forms created means to apprehend the physical realities.  “You are, in your bodies, well-tuned receive ..read more

Thinking About Fulfillment

Here is the text of this conversation: “Ok. We have been speaking of fulfillment being dependent on a perceived lack of fulfillment. Let’s unpack that more. “So, somebody suddenly finds themself (I use the plural to avoid the absurd binary gender restrictions and the impositions about gender stereotypes, right Pat?) They find themselves on top of Denali (and note, I don’t use the imperialistic Mt. McKinley. I am so SC.) [spiritually correct] So, they are suddenly atop Denali. Have they achieved anything other than a great view? No. “The top of any mountain is only meaningful in the ascent from ..read more
