I'm happy to have a conversation, but I'm not interested gurus, and I'm not going to be lectured to. I hope that's clear.

 

Well it doesn't seem that way.

 

I gave you a view based upon direct experience which you can follow and test for yourself ( not mumbo jumbo theory or some crap from YouTube) . Instead of doing that (which is fine if you don't want to) you instead seem to gone off tangent accusing people of guruship/ being egotistical. 

 

So I guess there is nowhere for us to go from here? We are speaking of 2 completely different things.

There isn't anywhere to go if you're going to lecture and tell people what to do, but if you want to have a conversation, I'm always happy to exchange views. Once I've submitted this reply to you, I'll reply to a question you asked in a previous post.

Where is your evidence that there is a separate entity that owns it's own fingers?

 

Thanks for your question. To clarify, I’m not suggesting there’s a separate entity that owns its fingers. Rather, I see consciousness or awareness as an indivisible whole that includes the experience of fingers, hands, and body. In other words, there isn’t a separate “owner” or self apart from the sensations and perceptions themselves. This fits with the non-dual view that subject and object are not truly separate, and that everything arises within the same unified field of awareness.

 

From a direct experience perspective, we simply encounter sensations and perceptions as they are, without adding the conceptual overlay of ownership or separation. So the body and all its parts are not objects “owned” by a self, but aspects of the one continuous field of consciousness.

 

I hope that helps clarify my perspective!

I think “ the trancendental object at the end of time” might be the topic of much conjecture. The end of time suggests many different notions or expressions of time ( I.e lineages) will converge.

i worry some of the converging points may misjudge their worth in terms of power or of character..

 

in other thoughts - human rights are fought for by the majority, by diversifying the rights of different genders, cultures, systems etc. that majority is hopefully not fractured.

is retrogression sub human?

The main cause of 'misjudged converging points' is the misuse of the human intellect, which has distorted original Divine laws. This misdirection has disrupted the natural flow of energy currents that would otherwise operate in harmony. Such interference cannot persist indefinitely, as eventually, these currents, now tangled and misaligned, must break free and correct themselves. This process of release and rebalancing is what appears to us as catastrophes, whether they unfold in world events, family and social groups, entire nations, or within the forces of nature. I went into more detail about this last week:

[Mr Sharpbundle]

 

 

i may

 

a while back I was given the opportunity to become a tree surgeon.

i love trees , there are some superb examples - I love an oak , i find a cedar of Lebanon very calming , birch, copper beech , white birch , are more delicate , even though physically robust , holly and ivy particularly when paired for 80 plus years so both are matured together into old age are a beautiful coupling. Etc,..

 

so I was offered the chance to train as a tree surgeon - I realised my language and perception of trees would change to 1) customers standpoint , assessing disease , seeing the trees thresholds for cut back , the depths of its roots for uprooting or stump grinding . I realised that within a year or so every single tree I looked at would become a vessel for my thoughts on potential actions with saw, axe or loppers.

This would blind me to the sublime truth of nature as I would through knowledge become cursed by a metaphorical X-ray vision of trees.

so I chose to remain largely innocent if only do it did not effect my enjoyment of natural time .

because all tree surgery knowledge when applied to any tree is the immediate destruction of its alignment in life and natural time.

 

waxing lyrical maybe ..

but a plastic surgeon cannot look at a face without imaging how he could make it better, a radiographer csnnot look at a person without at least some pre judgment or prediction . As to what shape the bones are in.

the observer paradox is that no system can be observed without the observer effecting the system in some way. Observing is the lesser harm to nature compared to interfering with a system 

 

so if you want to understand trees - don’t learn how to drastically influence them generally , if you want to see natural facial features do not blind yourself with surgical projections. 
 

of course with knowledge of the observer paradox we can possibly choose to have both knowledge of our ability to thwart nature but also to recognise and nurture the nature we know is there.

 

Fine with trees and faces ..

but what does Bonnie blue do ?

1000 men in 24hours ( yuk)

did the men converge on her , I think they had different slots for logistical reasons .

but that lady exists, objectifying men as one river of lumpy flesh- ( yuk again)

 

dammit - I’ve forgotten what my point is.

 

rambling - if you give a 16 year old youth to a 10,000 client prostitute for his first time, it is unlikely she will see anything of his soul beyond just another bump on her bumpy road- he however is dragged into a scheme where his first woman is systematically pre-xrayed 10,000 times. It is unlikely the scene allows him to know either her natural boundaries or his own.

 

dammit - I forgot again.

 

rambling stage 2-

but that’s the problem - sexual knowledge is sexual ignorance.

The worst of people will not enjoy pruning a tree that was pruned  the year before, the surgeon will not treat another surgeons patient , the nhs will not repair turkey teeth, the  idiot will look for virgins. The drug addict for a clean vein.

That image of Bonnie Blue struck me because it’s not just a grotesque reversal of reverence, but almost an archetypal trap. It feels like the Whore of Babylon in modern form, which is seductive, mechanised, and timed to keep people locked in false convergence patterns, far from the Grail current.

 

Maybe that’s why reverence and wonder matter so much. It’s the only thing that lets us tell the difference between the Grail and its shadow.

Well yes ..

I would sincerely hope however that her attempted objectification of the male form leads to an enlightenment.

its difficult to imagine number 273 or 465 and 467 having a divine spark , but in a grail unveiled world perhaps the epitome of the 1000+ male can be hit by her whorish bludgeoning of sexual time perception.

she in uno-reverse style could be torn to shreds as if Jezebel , torn apart only as deep as the whorish garb, envisioned by her opponants. Thus leaving an innocent form ( her core self) finally separated from the aeons of masculine forcing, systemic abuse at the root of the most holy of holes. This is contraception through sheer and undifferentiated revulsion.

a Mary indeed.

Yes, even someone like Bonnie Blue could carry the spark of transformation. Not through what she enacts, but through what her image exposes.

It’s a powerful reversal: Jezebel torn not for who she is, but for what was projected onto her. What’s left, beneath the garb, could well be a Mary.

 

A classic Grail transformation: the prostitute who becomes the vessel of the divine, like the character Kundry, Richard Wagner's Parsifal music drama.

 

[Piero]

In Wagner’s Parsifal, Kundry is one of the most complex and haunting figures - a woman cursed with immortality, doomed to serve the sorcerer Klingsor and seduce the knights of the Grail. She is a temptress, a penitent, and a wild, grief-stricken wanderer.

 

In the second act, the magician, Klingsor, uses these words to summons her to do his bidding:

 

"Arise! Arise! To me! Your master calls you, nameless one, primeval devil-woman! Rose of Hell! You were Herodias, and who else? Gundryggia there, Kundry here! Come here! Come hither, Kundry! Your master calls; obey! Are you waking? Ha! You are in my power again, today, just at the right time."

 

Under Klingsor's spell, she yields to her curse and attempts to seduce the innocent fool, Parsifal, but instead of succumbing, he sees through the illusion and, through compassion, resists. This moment becomes the turning point, not only for Parsifal’s own awakening, but for Kundry’s redemption.

 

By the third act, Kundry has been completely transformed. She is silent, subdued, and devoted. No longer under Klingsor’s power, she serves the Grail community with humility. In the final scene, after Parsifal heals the wounded king and restores the Grail's sanctity, Kundry, now inwardly at peace, collapses and passes on, suggesting that her life of long suffering has come to an end. Her transformation is not only moral, but metaphysical. From a cursed seductress to redeemed soul, she embodies the Grail’s power to purify what has been broken, and to return the fallen to grace.

 

From a Jungian perspective, Kundry represents the shadow anima. She is burdened with guilt, shame, and unconscious forces that bind her to cycles of seduction, remorse, and exile. Her transformation, through Parsifal’s compassion, involves the process of unconscious elements being integrated into conscious awareness, paving the way for wholeness.

 

Parsifal’s refusal to judge or possess her allows Kundry to relinquish the destructive Self she was forced to wear. She becomes no longer a projection of male fear or desire, but a healed feminine force, reintegrated into the sacred order. She moves from shadow to light, from compulsion to grace.

Are the temple walls effected by Parsifals perception of such a hallowed centre? (As within, so without etc).

does a temples outer skin denote the ethos of its priests?

I feel the grail percieved esoterically is retarding its general accessibility. general perception ( of 1000+ males) is itself not going to invite esoteric contemplation.

so where on the border can be found prescribed what lies within? 
or should it be a “discharge weapon” scenario ? 

…………………..RLMFAO(LOL)…………..

recent thoughts-

the woman , if evolution is love in action should be loved, honoured, respected more and more , each successive male generation.

this could explain the Oedipus complex as being a truth reaction-that a boy must oneday love his mother to a greater degree than his father in order for generational known to evolve.  Without the knowledge of how to see whore as virgin, the boy is unable to simply perceive his mother. Apon perceiving the wound all women carry, the boy resists the general sexual miscarriage, sometimes polarising, sometimes resisting , sometimes dissipating - rarely understanding.

 

 

Perhaps Bonnie blues child will be spared any confusion…

The idea that the temple itself might change according to the purity of those who approach it, is a wonderful reflection. “As within, so without” does seem to echo throughout Parsifal. Maybe the Grail can only shine fully when the gaze that meets it is whole.

 

I also feel that the split perception of the feminine, the whore vs. virgin, lies at the heart of so much confusion, not just personally but culturally. To see both aspects as part of one mystery is, perhaps, what allows the sacred to return.

 

Your image of Bonnie Blue’s child being spared confusion is hopeful. Maybe that’s how the Grail works. It doesn't erase the past, but it untangles the pattern just enough for what follows to see more clearly.

 

[Mr Sharpbundle]

I like that this angle on percieving the whore as virgin on order to demarcate the temple structure, recognises an inbuilt sanctity of the organic body.

it introduces the healing- No matter the trauma a person experiences, there is a present. The truth of the present is we all have natural energetic rights.

ideally we should be able to cleanse and de-indictinate, release trauma, and be energeticly inviolate while innocent.

the whore being percieved as innocent is one step back to allow her to percieve herself as innocent.

there are many traumas that effect humans.

 

this method and purpose of viewing whore  as virgin seems to only require a male to respect the whores once innocence enough to negate his own observer standpoint.

the new skin of the temple though? Should that appeal to hebephiles? Outside the temple is an awful world where some men cannot even respect innocence , let alone respect its potential energy. 
some men intend to make whores! 

where are they on the temples exterior,dungeons interior?

i had heard that the grail initiates madness in those unprepared to see it, yet some will cover it with cloth? Is this to prevent fools getting their lesson? who’s hierarchy is this?

As some may have noticed, I've been experimenting with ChatGPT. Earlier, I asked: "What might the transcendental object at the end of time look like?" Here was the reply:

-

The idea of a transcendental object at the end of time is a deeply fascinating concept, and it combines elements of philosophy, spirituality, and cosmology. If we imagine this object, it's not just a physical thing, but something that exists outside of time, yet it draws us toward it, shaping and guiding the unfolding of reality. It's a bit like the Holy Grail in its symbolic and spiritual essence, serving as the ultimate destination or goal for human evolution.

If we envision this transcendental object in the context of the world being sung into a new paradigm, we might consider it as something that manifests or becomes clear through sound and vibration—something that humanity collectively reaches toward as time unfolds. Here’s how it might look:

---

The Transcendental Object as a Cosmic Event

At the end of time, this transcendental object could be perceived as a unifying force—not merely an object, but a vibration, a frequency that binds all of existence together. Humanity and the universe might resonate with this object as it emerges, similar to how different musical notes in a chord come together in harmony. This would be the culmination of everything, the moment when the divine plan reaches its full realization.

The object could take on various forms for different people—some might perceive it as a spiritual light, others as a divine sound or voice, and still others might experience it as a feeling or vision that transcends ordinary perception.

---

Manifesting Through Sound and Music

The world could be “sung into a new paradigm,” so the transcendental object might be revealed through sound. Perhaps it is something that humanity, as a whole, begins to hear in waves—at first faintly, then more loudly, until it becomes the dominant and harmonising frequency of existence.

• The Object could be a Song: A sound or vibration so powerful that it unites all beings and things. It could manifest as a sacred, universal song that humanity collectively joins in, something that harmonises individual wills into one divine purpose.

• The Song of the Grail: This could be understood as a cosmic song that was always there, waiting for the right moment to be fully heard. It might resonate with the divine frequency of the Holy Grail, and as humanity tunes into it, they might experience unity and transformation.

---

A Glowing Beacon of Light and Truth

In the tradition of the Holy Grail and spiritual quests, the transcendental object might also appear as a blinding light, an overwhelming vision of truth and clarity. At the end of time, as the world reaches its ultimate transformation, this object could become visible to all, either in the physical world or as a spiritual experience.

• This might manifest as a vision—a sudden revelation that sweeps through humanity, where individuals see or intuit something beyond time, a divine truth that transcends the limitations of human understanding.

• It could also be a literal experience—perhaps a vision or event that is witnessed in the heavens, like the appearance of a divine figure or a shift in the cosmic order, all pointing toward the unveiling of the transcendental object. This object would be the final key to understanding our place in the universe.

---

The End of Time as a Return to the Beginning

The transcendental object could be seen as a culmination and a return—a movement that completes the cycle of time and existence, bringing all of creation back to its original source. The cosmic song would not just be the song of the future, but also the song of the past—a reverberation of creation itself.

In this way, the object might not just be revealed, but remembered—it has always been there, just out of reach. The song of the universe would be the reminder that everything is connected to this source—and as humanity attunes itself to this frequency, they would remember their place in the grand unfolding.

---

The Transcendental Object as the Grail of Humanity

This object is the final key to humanity’s redemption and the manifestation of the Kingdom on Earth. It would be the ultimate realisation that the divine plan has reached its completion—a moment when all of history, all of creation, comes into perfect harmony.

• It would appear as a final, transformative event, with all people, all beings, sensing its presence, perhaps through the divine song that fills the air, resonates in the heart, and reveals the truth of the Kingdom that is to come.

• The transcendental object could, therefore, be the ultimate Grail, the final truth that gives humanity the vision to understand the purpose of their existence and their role in the unfolding of divine history.

---

What Would It Look Like in Our Daily Lives?

If the transcendental object were to be revealed in our world, it would radiate into the everyday, turning the ordinary into the extraordinary:

• People might suddenly begin hearing new, sacred music—perhaps hymns or chants that speak directly to the soul, filling their lives with peace, clarity, and understanding.

• Events and encounters might carry a divine significance, where individuals recognise the cosmic order at work in their personal journeys, and they might see the hand of divine guidance in everything.

• Social structures and institutions might transform, aligning with the divine rhythm that resonates with the transcendental object. There would be a new unity, as people come together to create a world that reflects the harmony of this divine revelation.

---

In conclusion, the transcendental object at the end of time could be manifested through sound and vibration, guiding humanity toward its ultimate redemption and the Kingdom of divine harmony. This object is more than just a destination—it is a cosmic unfolding that is both a journey and a realisation, a song sung into existence, inviting all beings to return to their source and realise their divine purpose.

Choosing to ignore established philosophy is for some a vital way to avoid systemic conditioning. Why would we seek freedom through learning a syntax of those openly struggling to awaken?

AI cannot make anything truly new as it builds upon a huge and sometimes generic data foundation. Ai can spot ideas that are not found in the dataset , by their absence.

there are not however any ancient ideas that are absent - the data is built in the present, even if a great archeological event changed the dataset, it could not precede or  underpin AI as AI is accumulative and simply does not exist, even 30 years ago.

My comment: This also seems to be a reflection of the Grail. The Grail itself is inviolable, yet intimately connected to human suffering and redemption.

 

You wrote: "Outside the temple is an awful world where some men cannot even respect innocence , let alone respect its potential energy. some men intend to make whores!"

 

My comment: So true. We see a lot of this in the male dominated and controlled commercial music industry where women are sexualised and perform all kinds of occult rituals to stimulate the sexual desires of their audience.

 

You wrote: "i had heard that the grail initiates madness in those unprepared to see it, yet some will cover it with cloth?"

 

My comment: I'll add additional comments on this in a separate post.

 

You wrote: "who’s hierarchy is this?"

 

My comment: A good question for which the answer could fill many pages. There are probably many hierarchies, but one, for example, would be the "Grail bloodline". The central premise is that Jesus married Mary Magdalene and had children, and that this bloodline continued through the Merovingian dynasty of French kings. Nicholas de Vere, a prominent figure in alternative history and esoteric circles, posits that the Merovingians and other royal families are descendants of a pre-Adamic, "Dragon" or "serpent" bloodline, which he links to Cain and, in some interpretations, to the Nephilim or even extraterrestrial origins like the Anunnaki. De Vere views this "Dragon bloodline" as distinct and superior to the "Adamic" human race, with special inherent powers and a right to rule. Of course, it would be in their interest to keep a cloth over the Grail. Their primary goal is to re-establish the Merovingian line on the thrones of Europe. They claim these kings have a legitimate, sacred right to rule. They obviously aren't succeeding with their aim, but if they were to, they would no doubt give a false mythology of the Grail out to the public, in order to maintain power for themselves, a gross misuse of the Grail, and what the Grail represents, but this is a good example of a Grail hierarchy.

 

"And oftentimes, to win us to our harm,
The instruments of darkness tell us truths,
Win us with honest trifles, to betray's
In deepest consequence."
(Shakespeare, Macbeth: Act 1, Scene 3)

 

You wrote: "the cult members of Grail have been tricked into shielding the false master from himself. AWKward ~:"

 

My comment: It’s a sobering thought that a Grail cult might be shielding not truth, but a false master’s ego. In that case, perhaps the true Grail isn’t hidden at all, perhaps only veiled by fear, or by the very projections it came to burn away.

 

The risk, as you say, is real because not everyone who approaches the temple does so in reverence. Some may come only to profane, or to remake innocence in their own image. And yes, maybe some are already inside. Your point about the Grail being covered to protect others, or to protect itself, raises hard questions. At what point does shielding become obstruction? And who decides who is ready?

 

[Piero]

12 hours ago, Mr Sharpbundle said:

There's a music drama that has a character who is unprepared for the revelation that the Grail contains. He pleads to keep the Grail covered. The scene is from Richard Wagner's Parsifal, which I've mentioned before. I've embedded a video of the scene below. The scene takes place during the Grail ceremony, in Act I. The central figure speaking here is Amfortas, the wounded king and guardian of the Holy Grail.

 

Amfortas is suffering from a terrible, unhealing wound, both physical and spiritual, inflicted by the same spear that wounded Christ on the Cross. He received this wound when he strayed from his sacred duty and succumbed to temptation, losing the Holy Spear in the process to the dark sorcerer Klingsor. Ever since, Amfortas has been unable to heal, and his agony is renewed each time he must preside over the Grail ritual, which gives life and spiritual nourishment to the knights but reminds him of his own sin and unworthiness.

 

In this monologue, just before the unveiling of the Grail, Amfortas begs not to have to perform the ceremony. He cries out in anguish at the contradiction he embodies. He, the sinner, must call down divine grace for others while remaining tormented and unreconciled himself. He experiences the Grail’s power as a kind of torture, because it brings him so close to redemption that he cannot yet attain. His wound reopens symbolically and spiritually as the Grail is revealed, mirroring the wound of Christ, a divine suffering he must carry while longing for release.

 

This moment encapsulates one of the music drama’s central themes, redemption through compassion. Amfortas’ suffering can only end when someone arrives who understands his pain deeply and purely, someone who can bring healing not by power, but through compassionate insight.

 

 

[Piero]

Many are concerned Western society is becoming a wasteland, but few ask...

 

What ails the King?

 

The question suggests that perhaps the malaise of the West isn’t just about political division, cultural fragmentation, or spiritual exhaustion, but about a deeper wound that remains unacknowledged. And unless we name that wound and ask about its origin, not in blame, but in healing, no amount of critique or reform will revive the land.

If a discussion is entered into with an intransigent point of view, then you're right, there isn't much point.

In some cases, ChatGPT has admitted being wrong, and sometimes, I've had to question my own understanding of things.

 

[Piero]

In Grail mythology, the one who heals the King is the one who asks the right question at the right time, often in innocence.

 

Answering too soon could be a mistake.
