>>12092098It's like this: God is Universal Mind or something, right? There's nothing else. Dude gets bored so fractures off His Mind into little minds that have self similar properties. That is, we all get shit like free will and that sort of thing. But His Mind is just so gnarly that none of us can get where he's coming from, we want to know more about ourselves/Him, and He wants to show us/learn more so He/we come up with a way to limit our ineffable nature, filter it down to what we can input/output through a meat vehicle we call the human body.
Enter, The Physical Game. Everyone spawns here and has to play out some game with rules that everyone's been trying to figure out since we started tracking the stars. The only thing we know for sure, is it's a game FOR KEEPS.
So what's my relationship to this game? This physical representation of something otherwise non-physical? I'm a part of it, we come from the same Mind and it is here for me as much as it is here for you. The Game probably has something to do with mastering my impulses and learning to stand my ground & cooperate with like minded others.
I know that if I play my cards right, when I leave this game, I'll get to move onto more interesting, less restrictive activities. That's my relationship to the 'simulation' and my strategy.
