Robbed And Maimed
Boredom - the cause of humanity’s troubles the inability to find anything even remotely interesting, finding no resonance with anything I see, nothing interesting on the Internet
Proving the world is still the same, but my feelings changed and having the faculty of reason without emotional content is completely useless, no wonder many take anti-depressants
It is simply to forget the emptiness in their heads!
I’ve committed the grave sin of leaving Terry Pratchett next to my bed, I fear boredom more than anything - carrying books guaranteed to be interesting – but today I was determined to work my way from A to Z
Now I’m left with black-hole-syndrome in the head, nothing worthwhile seems to be alive or able to survive, only the frustration of suspicion that I shall always repeat this experience in my life
Whenever a critical point is reached and my brain is saturated, I stop to feel, not even crimes and violence have the decency to come looking for bored old me, I will have to put in an application
To be robbed and maimed in the name of breaking all this boredom – it’s driving me insane!
Joy and Wonder
I’m also fascinated by moments of purest joy - godly sensations of freedom –
blessed moments of illumination, as described in this account: “I felt as if
the whole universe was poured into me – or was welling out; my soul was thrilled;
my consciousness went out in all directions simultaneously - through the sky and into
all space beyond; I went up to the stars and planets to be among strange entities,
beings a million miles high who moved about; revelations swept my being - too fast for
my mind to record - other than realize the joy and wonder of it…”
Moments of vision
In moments of vision knowledge is acquired through the mind’s visionary faculty that easily penetrates reality
Derek Gibson experienced the world becoming a beautiful phantom – a fairyland of browns and greens - surging vividly
Unseen, only felt – his mind developed the faculty to live what his senses were registering, knowledge and power surged through him -
He suddenly KNEW he was part of it all…
Colin Wilson “Beyond the Occult” p.22
