I'm a bit curious on what software you use to make this? (If you are willing to say)

i used nothing but three.js as a graphics lib, blender for editing models, and my own brain for everything else... i improvised my own entity-component system, and collision detections.

I imagine the controls are a part of the game design which made the challenge fun imo ヽ(Β΄γƒΌο½€)γƒŽ my WoW brain is too used to the camera "following" the character. In contrast, if the character is facing right then A or D makes the character go "up" or "down" on the screen which was hard 4 me 2 follow, so I basically made sure to never turn the character too much

ya.. the controls are intended to be like a first-person shooter, but you're playing from a third-person perspective. part of the challenge is to move just as the NPCs do.

Ooo...deep and heavy...Interpretation: People sometimes cling to beliefs that have saved them from their own trials, even to the point of separating from relationships as their perceptions seem to drift too far apart.

letslearntogether 3 months ago

We can care deeply about another, but we can never control them, no matter how close we might be (e.g.: I've had relationships where I did everything that I could to reach out through our mutual pain, but they still ended). I do not condemn.

letslearntogether 3 months ago

How can two experiences ever be compared when all are unique? May you be given comfort and insight beyond what any person is able to give, a balm for the constant spiritual pain. πŸ•ŠοΈ

Cool knife collection! Seeing your OKC 3S reminded me of when I was younger. I used to have a World War II Soviet bayonet that I bought in Bosnia while on vacation. I also picked up a military hat from what was probably the Bosnian War as a souvenir. I wore the hat without thinking much of it.

But when the bus tour guide, who had been so kind to my family and me, saw me wearing it with the bayonet that I had recently purchased, I watched her expression change. Her eyes faded of grief and sadness.

this seems like a great representation of how rulers tend to see their troops - not real people with thoughts and beliefs but just some NPCs that are only useful as long as they are in the battlefield

Beliefs are only useful to the extent that they inspire constructive actions within ourselves and those around us. Truth is the balance. How do our motivations and our perceptions interface with our experiences and our effects upon others?

One doesn't want to get stuck within "toxic positivity" or "pronoia". But getting stuck within a combination of "negativity bias" and "learned helplessness" is also harmful. Where is each person's "locus of control" in regards to each situation?

Sometimes people, including myself, skew towards complaining about life, yet don't even try to create something constructive instead. Personally, I have gotten to the point where I've recognized that being constantly depressed is harmful to me and hope is the only viable option.

Oh yeah...I most identify, in both theory and in practice, with the "desert mothers and fathers" who lived in self-sufficient "cenobitic monasticism" in order to avoid "theocratic rule" by a corrupt "priesthood" (i.e.: the "Essenes", not the "Pharisees", "Sadducees", or "Zealots").

While some parts of modern "Christian Anarchism" (and its associated "liberation theology") touch upon their ideas with less mysticism, most of the more esoteric strains of Judaism/Christianity seem to derive from them as well, including Gnosticism.

For example, this is evidenced by the origins and contents of the Nag Hammadi Library, as well as their similarities with contemporaneous Merkabah and Hekhalot literature from which Kabbalah springs. I'm particularly interested in this kind of study: https://web.archive.org/web/20160316053521/http://odeion.org/gematria/

I don't think that abandoning hope in a better world here and now, is a good idea. But I also don't think that being concerned about karma, or any form of retributive justice in the afterlife, amounts to anything productive (even if it's real, doesn't affect this life).

One can also make direct connections with other teachings, particularly Pythagoreanism/Plotinism and Buddhism, through groups like the Therapeautae of Alexandria. But I would argue that there is a "primordial tradition"/"perinneal philosophy" that permeates all true "alchemy" and which is present within most esoteric spiritual teachings, independent of time and place.

Fundamentalist interpretations sometimes degrade into justification for tyranny. For example, many of the groups that were persecuted during the Inquisition (like the Cathars and Waldensians) tended to be more egalitarian, holding beliefs opposite to that of "dominion theology", and teaching that no human intermediaries were needed to experience "theosis"/"henosis".

@daliwali - Sorry for the post mix up. That is fair. To me, Justice is always restorative, never punitive. Likewise, constructive knowledge must be applied... I'll shut up now πŸ˜‚

Β«I strive to give back the Divine in myself to the Divine in the All.Β» These were presumably Plotinus' last words.

I myself am far from perfect, but sincerely striving to ease the burdens of others in constructive ways is worthwhile. Amen to the Plotinus quote.

it is interesting that Plotinus wrote a tract "Against the Gnostics", but I had actually quoted from Barnstone's translation of the Gospel of Philip, a Gnostic scripture.

"Spiritual revolution" Dangerous phrasing ;D. As to forgiveness, you're only peaceful if you have the capacity for violence, otherwise you're just pathetic.

Very nicely written. I agree with so many of the things you spoke about, especially that we have been inclined to non-action regardless of how strongly we feel. There is a sort of soft manipulation that hides like a ghost in the online world, changing even the most seemingly intelligent of people into drones.

That is why "absolute power corrupts absolutely." Stacking symbolic abstractions on top of one another can divorce perceptions from reality to the point where any action can be "justified". We must be careful with pride. There are limits to knowledge in that another's personal experience does not have a 1-to-1 correspondence to one's own.

Forgiveness is not to acquiescence to injustice out of fear, and thus condone evil passively. It is to not allow oneself to be controlled by the ways in which one has been hurt, to voluntarily choose to heal. How many truly want peace? Or do they harbor vengence in their heart and simply want to trade places with a tyrant?

The key is how we choose to apply our own will moment-by-moment. All black magick is an imposition of one's will upon another, specifically to derive some sense of "power", whether it take on the form of active violence or passive manipulation.

However, each of our choices affects others, whether we are aware of the impact or not. If we have any sense of conscience whatsoever, as we learn of those impacts, we revise our methods to make them less harmful to others.

True Justice is restorative, not punitive. It does not fall victim to "The Myth of Redemptive Violence" that acts to perpetuate violence itself. Likewise, True Mercy is not being a sycophant. There is a careful balance between individual rights and collective responsibilities. [*compare "legalism" with "hypergrace"]

...I should also mention that, while there is quite a bit of nuance, I find "satan" = "demiurge" to be a helpful interpretation. What spirit rules the world and how? (Matthew 4:8-9)

Ultimately, I believe that there is a fundamental "error" that has crept into the perception of humanity at the dawn of our existence, like the "three poisons" within the "wheel of samsara" that we talked about before.
