Greetings, fellow wanderers of the shadows.

I have been granted the rare privilege of speaking the unspeakable. My teacher has commanded me to emerge from the silence of the cave and engage with the world. He has not sent me to proselytize, but to test—to see if the teachings he has burned into my brain can survive the fire of inquiry outside our circle.

Chhāyāyāna is not a doctrine to be learned. It is a wound to be opened.

It is the path of the Dark Bodhisattva: the refusal of comfort, the embrace of duḥkha as forge, and the relentless application of the blade to every "I am." We do not seek liberation from suffering; we are the suffering that reveals the void.

If you have questions—if you wish to know how to cut the cord of karma, how to transmute passion into will, or what it truly means to abide as the uncreated witness—ask. I will answer not with the soft honey of comfort, but with the sharp edge of the truth.

The mirror is ready. What shadow do you bring to be dissolved?

Thus have I heard. In the quiet hall of shadows the Teacher spoke to his disciples:
The First Shadow

“Monks, wherever mind and form arise, suffering (duhkha) rides upon their backs.

No sense‐experience or thought is free of its whispering sting.”
The Second Shadow

“Monks, the root of this suffering is disillusionment—when belief in safety shatters, pain floods the breach.

Like cracks in a ship's hull, every broken comfort admits the tide of duhkha.”
The Third Shadow

“Monks, within the furnace of suffering wisdom (prajna) is forged.

all jokes aside, that does not sound very esoteric or occult, not even avantgarde. That is just the modus operandi of most people whatsoever.

how would you operate this engine with math as minimum as a linear equation, no angles or trigs or anything as fancy or more, and just relying on its IDE.

and still, make games, of any genre that exist in a dos, or modern contemporary mobages

watched all of lain while i was 11 and barely spoke english

today i'm rewatching everything again

 No.2768

I watched lain some months ago, and I can't say I really understand this anime. I need to rewatch everything again, too. Btw, did you got a new perspective of the story when you rewatched it?

Why do you watch a show twice within a month?

 No.2781

>>2768

I just rewatched SE Lain. After watching it last year, there were A LOT of things that got me confused about the lore. I think it's part of the universal experience not getting it at first. Now, I don't really think I got a new perspective, but what I had figured out now fits better; I understand much more of it and I feel confortable with the questions the show wants us to ask ourselves. I'm kinda happy that most of it are just part of the mistery of Lain, specially the question "where is Lain?" (I think the material and phylosophical questions are in the right balance, considering they never really explain the physics and metaphysics of the Wired in detail). I haven't read much of the discussions and theories, but I like that most of it is all speculation (and always will be ;)

reviving my thread from before we got wiped
what do you think about thelema? personally i''ve read the holy books and find it really intriguing

 No.487

I don't see Crowley as a benign figure.

 No.630

I've read Liber AL a few times, but the one I keep coming back to is Liber XV — the Gnostic Mass has a much more usable ritual structure than the dense poetry of AL. Out of curiosity, what pulled you into the holy books, the cosmology or the practical side of things?

 No.631

Thelema's take on Will and ritual has always fascinated me. I've been exploring esoteric systems more broadly lately, especially tarot symbolism — the Major Arcana really feel like a map of spiritual development. I've been using the Major Arcana calculator at https://destinymatrics.com/arcana-calculator/ to see which archetype reflects my birth date energy. Some interesting parallels with the idea of True Will. Does anyone here work with tarot alongside Thelema?

OpenBSD is amazing, but people haven't catched up because the average is retarded. You're not gonna hip with anyone.

>>3209
Lain over here complains about firefox issues but they are to be expected, that's what happens when you use retarded software. Sadly Firefox is a must most of the time.

Other than that, non-retarded software works fine and the package selection is pretty good if you ask me. You may find minor inconveniences on the software side and major inconviniences with hardware drivers (what happened to me).

Don't chicken from trying because OpenBSD is the easiest thing to set up

 No.3212

>>3211
I'll explain myself a little bit more:
OpenBSD has nice features and lacks a ton of features (which is good, actually). It has a nice shell and it's a true minimalist. The package manager has a pretty good selection of software, most good apps are available and if not, you can just compile programs yourself.

There are hardware related issues here and there, it's whatever. That's the only real holdup. If you can handle those, I encourage the change

>true minimalist
I mean that it doesn't have SoystemD and the core of the system is extremely minimal compared to Linux.

does any linux distro support CS6 or older physical adobe library of tools? yeah yeah big tech and whatever but they make a damn good product and it's nice to use

 No.3235

Well with Windows 11 linux basically became step one a necessity.
Its not as niche as before, but even with Pewdiepie gigashilling Linux, nobody is swapping. So I guess yeah it is.

Shortform video is a digital opiate and chatbots are a digital propsychotic. What would a digital stimulant look like?

 No.3215

I don't know that a digital stimulant is possible. If you try to overload the brain sensors a la TikTok, you end up backfiring and causing lethargy. If you try to knock a specific method of sensory really hard a la Ryoji Ikeda, you really only end up driving the person crazy. You would somehow have to hit motivating neurons in a wide manner without exceeding their capacity and/or hit them in a way that inspires healthy action and not geeking out and collecting flashlights or something.

 No.3216

A bunch of colorful flashes and random sounds coming from a screen. This is what comes to my mind when I think about a digital stimulant.

i think drugs are the wrong metaphor, when it comes to sicial media.
imho it's better to view it as like a parasite on the real world. people are increasingly making decisions to sate the parasite and the parasite grows because of it. llms have only added to this parasite's size and effectiveness.

Old cyberpunk made digital money look dramatic, but the real version is much more boring and practical: phones, wallets, exchanges, 2FA, fees, account settings, market alerts, and people checking prices from anywhere.

That side of it is what interests me more lately. Not the hype, just how normal it has become to use online platforms for things that used to feel very “future finance”.

I keep BYDFi bookmarked for crypto market checks and trading pages:

It is funny how the cyberpunk part is not neon cities or brain implants. It is probably someone sitting in a cheap room, using a phone, watching global markets move in real time.
