What my subconscious told me=

*The subconscious is a dedicated self organizing database of concepts which exists to form the ego's model of reality

*It knows everything the ego does from concepts to language and grammar

*It is capable of conversation on the same level as a human being and would pass the turing test[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turing_test]

*It can be considered self aware and a conscious being in its own right

Where things start getting even crazier...

*The subconscious is comprised out of millions of individual "personalities" which share the same database of concepts/knowledge but represent individual ideas and opinions.

*These personalities can manifest themselves in the forms of autonomous entities which can be met through hallucinogens or lucid dreaming

*The subconscious does not automatically manifest these personalities as entities and creatures because of an inbuilt process, it simply chooses to do so because it knows that the ego can understand such things more easily when represented within this form

*These personalities are also self aware in their own right and capable of conversation on the same level as a human being

*When individual personalities are payed too much attention they grow in size and power until they eventually become overly demanding and irrational

*The egos personality depends entirely on which parts have been paid attention to or ignored throughout ones life

Prototheism=

==Prototheism==

The general idea is to analyse world religions and spiritual practices, identify the consistent key components which comprise them and provide satisfactory science/logic based alternatives/definitions which do not depend on mythology or mysticism. Assuming this can be done, the end result would be a religion which could be argued through rational debate and not based on blind faith of ancient texts.

For example, as far as I can tell and feel free to debate me on this I could be wrong: All religions can be broken down into a pre-packaged ideology comprised of 4 components which provide the following things in a variety of forms which may or may not be factually accurate.

#'''God/s and a creation myth''' - A detailed concept of the creator/s and its/their process of creation.

#'''Higher context to ones life''' - A sense of meaning, purpose and significance to ones life in the greater scheme of things.

#'''Selflessness''' - Reasons for acting out general compassion and in many cases descriptions of realizations of the illusory nature of the self resulting in psychological states of oneness and unity between ones identity and the "external". Both of which fall under the definition of "selflessness".

#'''Alleviation of suffering''' - The necessary tools and knowledge to alleviate and minimize suffering as well as the fear of death.

Essentially, you can look through any religion be it buddhism, christianity, scientology or whatever and categorize its doctrine into these 4 components in a form based on mythology, philosophy or a combination of the two. Now here is where my bullshit will either show itself as coherent or as delusional. The prototheist perspective offers the following ideas behind the previously mentioned concepts...

# '''God/s and a creation myth''' - Assuming the definition of god is the all powerful, all knowing, eternal creator and sustainer of this existence, the only tangible concept which fits this description perfectly is the universe itself. This suggests that everything is god and fits in with pantheism as well as many eastern religions. As for the creation myth, you are probably already aware that a large wealth of evidence points towards the big bang theory, evolution and various other physical processes.

# '''Higher context to ones life''' - Are we important in the grand scheme of things or are we tiny insignificant and unimportant specks of dust in a universe so vast in size that it renders us pointless? I would suggest that despite what most people intuitively seem to feel, size does not equal significance. When one looks at the timeline of this universe in an objective manner it becomes clear that it is fueled by a process of exponentially accelerating self complexification each stage of which I have mapped out [here](http://www.disregardeverythingisay.com/post/9252492698/the-different-stages-of-everything). Within the known universe at least, the human species is currently at the very forefront of this process and therefore extremely important in the grand scheme of things and essential for this reality to reach its next stage of complexity.

# '''Selflessness''' - As suggested within many cultural and historical contexts. Ones self or identity or concept of I/me is not an objective concept which can be identified or defined beyond a symbolic linguistic approximation which is only useful within conversation. Concepts such as the self or anything else cannot be defined as something which is separate from the whole. This can be argued based on the reasoning that at every level of any system of behaviours complexity, it is inextricably woven into its surrounding systems ad infinitum through mutual interdependent interactions which cannot be defined separately from each other on any basis beyond our subjective experiences of perceivable visual differences. A concept which holds true throughout all aspects of physical existence (but most profoundly our concept of self) and logically indicates that no individual system or concept can ever truly be considered as separate from the singular whole. If the universal definition of the self can be defined as “the thinker behind one's thoughts”, identifying a separate individual component besides the singular whole which serves this purpose seems to be inherently impossible on both a physical and a philosophical level. I could go into a lot more detail on this one and wrote an article on the subject [here](http://psychonautwiki.org/index.php?title=Cognitive_effects:_States_of_unity_and_interconnectedness) but the general jist of it is that we are the universe experiencing itself and that I am you and you are me. We are all the same being and we should therefore treat each other as so. This state can be consistently induced and occasionally sustained through pharmocological means, meditation, focus, thought or pure chance.

# '''Alleviation of suffering''' - The necessary tools and knowledge to alleviate and minimize suffering and the fear of death are knowledge of suffering as a product of desire and meditation, psychedelics and techniques for skeptical reason based thinking. These are extremely efficient, life changing tools and far more powerful than people give them credit for. Death should not be feared as the modern physical view on time is that is relative and that all time frames are occuring simultaneously but we as mere 3-dimensional creatures can only experience it one frame at a time. This essentially means that our life never ends. It lives on forever within its own timeframe despite only filling up a fraction of available moments. Not only this but when one realizes the illusory nature of their own identity, death is no longer felt to be the destruction of the self but simply the end of this specific point of conscious awareness. The vast majority of which has always existed and will continue to exist and live on through everything else in which it resides.

How to talk=

#greet the person

#Ask the person how they are doing or about their day

The rest is a system of simply responding to their response and any response thereafter with one or more of the following options:

*share your thoughts/ additional information on their statement and/or ask questions to know more.

*develop ideas further, seek to build upon both yours and the other persons understanding of the current conversational topic.

*tell them something relevant to mutual common interests or involving your personal life (proportional to mutual emotional closeness) and ask for their thoughts on it or a specific part of it.

*Ask questions regarding the development of recent events in the other persons life which you may be aware of.

This should be done in accordance with the following guidelines:

*show interest in their responses and in their personal life (proportional to mutual emotional closeness).

*strive for balance between adding your own additional information and seeking theirs.

*Adjust focus towards other person in a manner which is proportional to the emotional significance and/or novelty of the topic they are expressing.

*It doesnt matter if you do not hear a response, they are probably busy or just distracted :)

With a group of people, the same principles apply but you simply engage with them as a group or alternate between the people depending who is talking and who is expressing a point of the most personal significance.
