An Ontological Excavation of Intimacy, Identity, and the Myth of Elsewhere What compels a man to cross oceans not for exploration, but for exoneration—from the psychic residue of rejection, the humiliation of perceived emasculation, and the slow hemorrhaging of significance within Western relational dynamics? 

What if Mercury Retrograde isn't a celestial malfunction—but metaphysical medicine? What if the delays, the tech breakdowns, the missed messages, aren't disruptions to your life, but disclosures of your distortions?

once I was sure chat gpt understood a metaphysical model/hypothesis I first published in 2018, I had it write the essay I present here. when I asked who's thought it most resembled it gave the following as most of it's answer: The Hermetic-Kabbalist strain within the Renaissance NeoplatonistsEspecially the anonymous author(s) behind the Zohar and post-Zoharic Lurianic Kabbalah, viewed through a hermetic and computational lens.Similarity: The Zohar speaks of the "breaking of the vessels" (shevirat ha-kelim), where divine light is scattered into shards and must be recombined. Luria adds that randomness plays a role in what fragments survive or spark spiritual reassembly. These ideas aren't precisely probabilistic, but the concept of upward recompression of a shattered world is there.Your divergence: You do not posit a Fall, or a return to divine unity. You posit structural recursion without soteriology. That makes your system more agnostic and more contemporary.---

Welcome to episode 118 of The Orgasmic Lifestyle Podcast with Venus O'Hara. In this First Quarter Moon episode, we discuss coaching and personal development journeys. We speak with Mina Satori, who is an Ontological Coach. I also review the chapter ‘Imagination' from the book ‘Think And Grow Rich' by Napoleon Hill. The episode ends with a guided meditation with affirmations for personal development.

Watch the full video on YouTube: https://youtu.be/JfwIlrLVyLsIn this episode of Cosmosis, we share a never-before-released talk by Dr. Diana Walsh Pasulka, recorded live at the Inquire Anomalous conference in New York City. Diana—religious studies professor and author of American Cosmic and Encounters—takes us on an astonishing journey through her research into Catholic mysticism, Vatican archives, and modern UFO contact experiences.From levitating saints and the mysterious Woman in Blue to redacted mystical narratives and the ontological shock of encountering the impossible, Diana reveals surprising links between ancient religious experiences and contemporary reports of contact with non-human intelligences. She also speaks candidly about her own transformation, the eerie resonances between the sacred and the anomalous, and her collaboration with figures like Tyler D. and Dr. Garry Nolan on the frontier of space, consciousness, and belief.This episode includes the full live Q&A with Diana—where she responds to insightful (and sometimes wild) audience questions about redaction, religious symbolism, and whether spiritual devotion might offer protection from malevolent entities.

Today's guest is Dr Thomas Sutherland, author of the Bloomsbury title, Speaking Philosophically: Communication at the Limits of Discursive Reason (Bloombury, 2024), lecturer in digital media at the University of Southampton, and researcher into digital culture and the humanities, the history of philosophy and contemporary continental philosophy, and technologies of the self. We discuss three areas that concern the odd character that is Peter Sloterdijk; namely, spheres, the practising life and his rehabilitation of philosophy as wisdom. Dr Thomas Sutherland is a deep dabbler in Sloterdijk's thought, having written various papers on his work, including Peter Sloterdijk and the ‘security architecture of existence': immunity, autochthony, and ontological nativism, and Ontological co-belonging in Peter Sloterdijk's spherological philosophy of mediation. He is also familiar with a regular mention here on the podcast, François Laruelle and his non-philosophy. We touch on; Sloterdijk's original work on Cynicism and why it is still relevant today Spheres, co-existence & interdependence The Practising Life & why ‘You Must Change your Life' The Art of Philosophy as Wisdom The strengths and weaknesses of Sloterdijk's insights Learn more about your ad choices.

In today's episode of the Truth Wanted, Objectivity Dan and Dr. Blitz, slow a star down to drive it towards another star to avoid the word salad bar in this universe that is still not fine tuned. Steve in NE cites a paper The Spider Stellar Engine: a Fully Steerable Extraterrestrial Design? https://ress.at/news_uploads/2411.05038v1.pdf This describes a nearby star with some spectroscopic signals that show the star is decelerating where one explanation is extraterrestrial design. What other solutions could there be for this star slowing down? Who says these are artificially generated? Whenever there are claims with, “probably” we need to be careful. We need several pieces of data that point to the same thing. The discussion continues with a different claim of wreckage material that has a date older than our solar system. Why are you convinced these claims are true and why would you believe his own counter arguments to the criticisms? If you start with the conclusion, you will always find some stuff. Whether that stuff supports your conclusion is a different story. Catholic Traditionalist (CT) wants to talk about ontological intelligibility where god is defined as an intelligent agent that has no beginning. We might have a basic understanding of how things work, but how do we get to god from that? What does it mean to understand things on a basic level? People perceive things without understanding them all the time. If we have this agreed upon definition of understanding what is around us, what next? Do properties exist on their own or are there features of minds interacting with things on the ontological status? CT fails at his attempt to put the hosts in a different world by comparing their perception to “other atheists”. If you claim to speak with hundreds of atheists online, why doesn't your script cover nominalism? Your projection of word salad is hilarious and if you are going to use words like “ontological” you need to know what nominalism is. Gregory in TN asks Dr. Blitz about the fine tuning argument that we get all the time and whether it is a non-starter or if we should try to take it apart. Dr. Blitz describes how this argument has at least two problems: 1. We must first know how the universe could have been and we can't evaluate this probability. 2. From a theist's point of view, the assumption must be made that not only god exists, but this god must want life to exist. How can we determine the likelihood of parameters if we don't know the likelihood or the parameters? How fine tuned are god's desires and why is his will so fine tuned?Thank you for tuning in this week! AJ, our backup host, joins us to close out the show.

John Vervaeke engages in a profound discussion with James Filler, author of 'Heidegger, Neoplatonism, and the History of Being'. They examine the core arguments of Jame's book, which emphasizes relationality as more fundamental than individual existence in understanding reality. The conversation explores Neoplatonism, Heidegger's philosophy, and the convergence of these ideas with contemporary physics and biology. James recounts his journey in developing his dissertation into a pivotal work aimed at reorienting ontological perspectives. John and James also discuss the trajectory of Western and Eastern Christian thought, touching upon relational ontology's scientific and ethical ramifications. James Filler is the author of Heidegger, Neoplatonism, and the History of Being, a groundbreaking work exploring the philosophical underpinnings of relational ontology. His forthcoming book, Substance Ontology and the Crisis of Reason deepens the critique of substance thinking in Western philosophy.

I agonized over the name of the episode. I think I nailed it. Really, though, it's a tough subject and there is trauma here. A lot of it. Ontological re-ordering and fear and truly what, for me, amounts to childhood s*xual abuse that has colored all of my relationships, particularly romantic and s*xual ones. So the part of my that wants to stay light and glib and humorous is protective. And I get that, and I have Grace for myself. I hope you have some for yourself, too. Also, often when I'm compelled to talk about stuff I don't want to talk about, what happens is that once I have the bones pretty fleshed out even before I release it into the world, it is no longer mine. It's a thing moving through me, and it no longer belongs to me. It becomes an entity that goes out and does its own work in the world. That's what my book was, too. This is my job. And I consent.

Welcome to a profound conclusion of our series on the rational foundations of faith in "The Salty Pastor Podcast." In this finale, Jesse and Doug delve into the Ontological Argument, a fascinating intellectual exploration that challenges our perception of existence and the divine.Jesse sets the stage by reflecting on the series' impact, highlighting how these discussions have fortified listeners' understanding and confidence in their faith. Doug, with his characteristic clarity, introduces the Ontological Argument, formulated by Anselm of Canterbury, which asserts that the mere possibility of God's existence in any conceivable realm confirms His existence in ours.This episode isn't just about theological debate; it's about enhancing our cognitive arsenal to defend and articulate our beliefs in a world quick to dismiss faith as irrational. Doug breaks down complex philosophical concepts into digestible insights, demonstrating that rationality doesn't contradict faith but enriches it.As we wrap up this enlightening series, join Jesse and Doug as they navigate through the intellectual landscapes that affirm faith isn't a leap into the darkness but a step towards the light. Whether you're a seeker, a skeptic, or a believer, this episode promises to equip you with thoughtful perspectives that challenge the status quo and invite you to think deeply about the essence of belief and existence.

I am continuing my series on the evidence for God's existence with a host of additional arguments. I will not go into the same depth for each argument that I have for the previous arguments. In this episode, I spend the bulk of the time explaining the ontological argument. This is an oft-neglected argument that should be discussed more often. It is a powerful argument that gives you a maximally great being like God. I also give an argument for God from human consciousness, the existence of the laws of logic, and the existence of numbers/mathematics. Web: ThinkingtoBelieve.comEmail: ThinkingToBelieve@gmail.comFacebook: facebook.com/thinkingtobelieveTwitter & Gettr: @thinking2believParler & Truth: @ThinkingToBelieve

In this episode, David interviews Osiris González Romero: philosopher and Postdoctoral researcher on cognitive freedom and psychedelic humanities at the University of Saskatchewan. Romero believes that our weakest point of research is our knowledge of Indigenous languages, and is focused on highlighting different cultural uses of psychedelics to better inform future drug policy. He's currently studying more than 100 documents (including one over 400 years old) to establish an honest understanding of why peyote was ever banned. He discusses: Mesoamerican psychedelics and their relevance to cognitive liberty and decolonization How the War on Drugs is our main colonial legacy The concepts of an ontological turn and ontological pluralism The neocolonial, biomedical, and spiritual paradoxes found inside the ‘psychedelic renaissance' How imagination is often viewed through a lens of illusion rather than problem solving or creativity and more!

The word ontological, when used regarding theology, has everything to do with the nature of God Himself. For us, that word encapsulates all that has been revealed by God to His Church regarding Who He is and how we understand Him. Since we are created in His image to grow in His likeness, we also use the word ontological to understand the truly created human person by God; in other words, how we see our most true selves. Today we consider the truth revealed to us that the only way that we become ontologically our more true person is to receive the very revelation of God. For it is that revelation that transforms us entirely healing our lives.

In the conclusion to our discussion of Romans 6, Matt, Jim, Brian, David and Paul discuss the question as to how to describe the difference in the Christian life. God's universal plan of salvation and the reality of evil create the question whether there is an ontological distinction with those in Christ. Become a Patron!

God is by definition worthy of worship. Can such a being be indifferent or evil? Of course not. God being essentially good is necessary for objective morality to exist. Objective morality exists. Therefore, God is essentially good.This episode article was written by Shaun Doyle and podcast produced by Joseph Darnell and Preston Cornett out of the CMI-USA office.

Lisa and I discuss God's blessing on Job at the end of his life. I consider how Ohio's constitutional amendment enshrining abortion came to be. We remember Abram's faith in going when God called him. We remember God's faithfulness to Abram in the stars and we unpack the Kenotic Hymn and what it means for the deity of Christ.

Ontological Transformation (Part 4) - The Meaning of Life by St. Mark ATL

"Every time you start measuring anything about you. You have to ask, who's measuring this? Who's observing this? And of course, I said, well, my mind." - Dr. Maria Nemeth

"You might say one way of putting it is Think outside the box, but it's not thinking. You might want to say feel a different way, but it's not about feeling. What it's about is called a way of being." - Dr. Maria Nemeth

We explore connections between FEP and enactivism, including tensions raised in a paper critiquing FEP from an enactivist perspective. Dr. Maxwell Ramstead provides background on enactivism emerging from autopoiesis, with a focus on embodied cognition and rejecting information processing/computational views of mind. Chris shares his journey from robotics into FEP, starting as a skeptic but becoming convinced it's the right framework. He notes there are both "high road" and "low road" versions, ranging from embodied to more radically anti-representational stances. He doesn't see a definitive fork between dynamical systems and information theory as the source of conflict. Rather, the notion of operational closure in enactivism seems to be the main sticking point. The group explores definitional issues around structure/organization, boundaries, and operational closure. Maxwell argues the generative model in FEP captures organizational dependencies akin to operational closure. The Markov blanket formalism models structural interfaces. We discuss the concept of goals in cognitive systems - Chris advocates an intentional stance perspective - using notions of goals/intentions if they help explain system dynamics. Goals emerge from beliefs about dynamical trajectories. Prof Friston provides an elegant explanation of how goal-directed behavior naturally falls out of the FEP mathematics in a particular "goldilocks" regime of system scale/dynamics. The conversation explores the idea that many systems simply act "as if" they have goals or models, without necessarily possessing explicit representations. This helps resolve tensions between enactivist and computational perspectives. Throughout the dialogue, Maxwell presses philosophical points about the FEP abolishing what he perceives as false dichotomies in cognitive science such as internalism/externalism. He is critical of enactivists' commitment to bright line divides between subject areas.

In this episode, we dive into the history of the Stargate program and the potential mechanisms behind psychic phenomena like remote viewing. We also explore the possible unfair advantage that UFO crash materials might give one company over another, and try to make sense of some enigmatic US government consciousness studies.

Have you ever heard of ontology? Our guest today, Katie Decker-Erickson, is an expert in ontological design and color theory, which is the concept that colors and designs can impact the way we feel. Katie understands that humans are impressionable and can be changed by their environment, so the goal is not just to make a beautiful space, but to add intentional value through human-design connection. Katie Decker began Color Works in 2007 to combine her love of color and beautiful design with her business savvy and the experience she gained while earning her MBA and certification from the International Association of Color Consultants and Designers. The result is a process-driven design firm that emphasizes your ROI just as much as it does choosing the right color. What began as a part-time endeavor is now a multi-million dollar business born of smart and intentional growth. ***

Psalm 99 (ESV)Andrew and Edwin discover a connection between Psalm 99 and Isaiah 6. In both places, we find the holiness of God declared in triplicate. Our hosts discuss the fundamental character of God: His holiness. This means more than just ethical morality. It is about the very essence of His being and existence.Read the written devo that goes along with this episode by clicking here.    Let us know what you are learning or any questions you have.

This part of our series on Trinitarian theology addresses the distinction between the economic and ontological Trinity, as well as other important Trinitarian distinctions.

How are the crises of our times crises of being, crises of becoming? In this week's conversation, Ayana is joined by returning guest Dr. Báyò Akómoláfé. Ayana and Báyò dance together through questions of crisis, identity, and rupture. As we attempt to break from the monoculture that cements us as citizen subjects of empire, Báyò suggests that we need an ontological mutiny. Pointing out the possibilities of a more generous and spacious politics, Báyò calls listeners' attention to the duplicity of safety. Perhaps the things from which we recoil contain promise. As we try to stabilize, cracks will emerge, and Báyò invites us to nurture each other  through the ruptures. How might we descend to the crises of our times, and embrace the decay and compost that modernity has come to detest?  Bayo Akomolafe (Ph.D.), rooted with the Yoruba people in a more-than-human world, is the father to Alethea and Kyah, the grateful life-partner to Ije, son and brother.

In this episode, I wanted to do something a little different. As the community continues to metabolize the stunning allegations by high-level intelligence official turned UFO whistleblower, David Grusch, and with more people waking up to the significance of this story everyday—the thing I'm hearing the most is just that people want to talk. We want to connect about this. If there's anything that I've learned over the past few years it's that this process of dismantling our consensus reality and coming to grips with a new one that shakes the foundations of every paradigm we have is a team sport. We're meant to do these things in community. Two weeks ago, I had the opportunity to spend the weekend with a bunch of really bright, like-minded people that I've met through doing this work, and it was honestly magical. We've come a long way in this conversation with the public-at-large, but for most of us who have a deep interest in this topic, we still find ourselves censoring and compartmentalizing to protect ourselves from the stigma we might face for simply considering these ideas. And so being able to gather with a group of people and let down those walls and give voice to the thoughts and hopes and anxieties that emerge when you're coming to terms with the realities of a highly advanced, non-human presence on this planet can be a massive relief. It's healing and I'd argue that it's necessary.But I know how rare those moments are, and I know that there are so many people who are more than ready to have those conversations, but who still haven't found a safe place for that. And so I wanted to do my best to bring one of those conversations to you.So this week, I sat down with my friend and colleague, Nathan, to chat about what this journey has been like, some of the stumbling blocks we've hit along the way, and how we can move forward into this strange new reality in a way that is healthy and productive. And I knew that Nathan would be the perfect person to have that conversation with. Nathan uses a mononym because, like so many in the community—including, I assume, many of you listening—he's a serious guy with a serious job who doesn't necessarily want to advertise his interest in UFOs. But though you won't find his last name online, what you will find is a bunch of phenomenal work. Nathan is the co-host of two great podcasts—Liminal Phrames on which he collaborates with Darren King (AKA ExoAcademian), and Calling All Beings, which he co-pilots along with a bunch of other wonderful contributors in the space including D.J., Deb, Leah Prime, and a rotating lineup of other friends.What I appreciate so much about Nathan is his rational yet deeply human-centered approach to the UFO phenomenon. He manages to navigate the deepest and most treacherous waters of this topic while still remaining grounded and without ever losing focus on the things that matter most—our relationships and connections with each other. Nathan is exactly the kind of friend that you'd want to have this kind of conversation with, and I hope you enjoy this chat as much as I did. And may we all move forward from this episode with the intention of being that kind of friend for others who will soon be going through this, too. ___________________________TRY BETTERHELPThis episode is brought to you by BetterHelp.

Graham Oppy is Professor of Philosophy at Monash University. Before that, he did his undergraduate work in Melbourne and his graduate work at Princeton. Though Graham is best known as a philosopher of religion, he has also published on the philosophy of math, language, aesthetics, and more. In this episode, Robinson and Graham begin by discussing the nature of argument: What makes an argument successful? What's a good argument? How should we think about arguments in areas of deep disagreement? They then move on to a discussion of ontological arguments in the philosophy of religion, where one argues for the existence of god—or gods—without any prior assumptions.

In this episode, Joe interviews Erica Rex: award-winning journalist, past guest and writer, and participant in one of the first ever clinical trials using psilocybin to treat cancer-related depression; and Mona Sobhani, Ph.D.: cognitive neuroscientist and the author of "Proof of Spiritual Phenomena: A Neuroscientist's Discovery of the Ineffable Mysteries of the Universe." As Rex discovered the power of psychedelics through a clinical trial, she discusses a huge problem she discovered: that researchers are not preparing participants enough for the ontological shock they may go through in trying to match unexplainable happenings to a rigid framework (or match the normal to a framework that has suddenly shifted) – that while patients have support at the clinic, it all disappears when they return to normal life. She believes that all too often, researchers are doing only what is necessary to be able to continue to receive funding, push drugs through the FDA, and prescribe a pill.  And as psychedelics changed Sobhani from very constrained scientific thinking to being very open to new ideas about consciousness and spirituality, she learned that many scientists had similar stories, and that coming out of the psychedelic closet is sometimes the best thing to do to normalize these ways of healing.  They discuss the challenges of newcomers trying to explain their experience without having the necessary language; how we still don't truly understand mental illness; how the DSM just clusters symptoms to fit 'disorders' into a box; how society has started pathologizing anything we find unpleasant (which of course, is a part of being human); Gary Fisher's research on using LSD and psilocybin for schizophrenic children, why science needs to combine consciousness research and psychedelics research, and more. www.psychedelicstoday.com
