Brilliantly written article. It makes me look a lot better as a person than I actually am... But at the end, it's about #Euclyd!

This short and powerful essay argues that our pedagogy encourages us to project the language of intention onto mindless processes, and then debunks that intention as a mere metaphor. After years of this training, we apply the same logic to ourselves.

The familiar quantum probabilities are not arbitrary. They express the best possible way for a particular perspective to summarize a deeper situation it can never see completely. This is how this remarkably accessible essay makes sense of quantum weirdness.

Recording: No need to transcend the human experience Recording 28th Oct 2025

If you're a 'seeker,' you might think your dashboard onto reality is something to be transcended, but @bernardokastrup.bsky.social disagrees. Human perception is also part of reality, governed by the same archetypal templates as Mind at Large:

My party lost, but the Dutch elections have been won by a good party, led by a good man. In face of the epidemics of populism, nastiness, and lies, the Dutch have re-found their center. I'm proud of the Netherlands and its people. And congratulations, Rob Jetten!

The evolution of perception Can our relationship to reality transform? Q&A with Bernardo 28th Oct 2025

But could the very nature of perception evolve? Obviously, other species are experiencing the planet with very different senses to our own. What about our ancestors and future selves? Discussion tomorrow with @bernardokastrup.bsky.social www.withrealityinmind.com/the-evolutio...

Het vertrouwen in de politiek is historisch laag. Te veel partijen spelen met vuur, schreeuwen liever dan ze oplossen. Wij kiezen voor eerlijk bestuur, visie en respect voor onze democratie. Op 29 oktober kies je niet zomaar een partij, maar tussen meer chaos of eindelijk vooruitgang. Stem Volt.
