Hello, Yea Forums. This is the Jungian Mystic again. It's been a while. The last couple of threads disappeared unremarked and I'm wondering if the Awake have all moved on and left this place to the sleepers.
I'll give it another shot and see what happens. If there's any of the Awakened left here, I will assist with the Deep Mysteries. If you don't know what the Deep Mysteries are or you think this has something to do with the supernatural, then this thread isn't for you; just assume I'm a middle school LARPer and move on. If you have eyes to see, you know the value of what I'm offering here. Ask and I will point at the Moon.

Is consciousness collective?
Charles Baker
Mu. In other words, you've posed a question which can't be answered. Explain to me what you mean by "meaning" and "life," and if you can do that, then you needn't ask me. What is referred to as wisdom is actually the capacity to take a step back from one's own narratives and examine them on the level of meta-narrative, meanings about meaning.
Adrian Flores
It can be. The unconscious is partially collective, of course, but something like an egregore extends into conscious awareness. Thoughtforms like servitors and tulpas can be pulled across the barrier from the unconscious also, and as they can be constructed from archetypes, it's possible to manifest a thoughtform which is collective in nature.

What happens when someone "wakes up" from the collective illusion?
Noah King
It doesn't happen. If someone wakes, they cease to be that someone. It's why the Archons are so relentlessly individualistic. Physical reality requires the illusion of selfhood, while the deeper levels of the inner sea requires the elimination of selfhood. Think of the self as a kind of life preserver keeping people on the surface.
It's why the heroic dose is such a life-changing experience; once you've experienced ego-death, you realize just how much more there is beyond individual identity, and how little your ego-self really means to your true Self.
