Introduction

Remedial Pre-School Prep Version of the Egodeath Theory – Simplified 1st-Grade Reading Level

For slow learners or insane people who layer tons of their confusion on top of my couldn’t-be-simpler words stating dirt-simple points.

This page is particularly needed and is required, for over-educated, post-doc students.

Screening Exam

Question 1: Which domain does the Egodeath theory apply to?

A. Refrigerators

B. Mysticism

Question 2: Which state is the Egodeath theory based in?

A. the ordinary state (tight cognitive association binding)

B. the altered state (loose cognitive association binding)

Question 3: Which model of causality does the Egodeath theory assert?

A. free will quantum ineffability

B. domino-chain determinism (unfolding-in-time determinism; temporal causal-chain determinism)

C. block-universe determinism (eternalism)

Question 3 ½: Which model of time, possibility, and control agency does the Egodeath theory assert?

A. branching-universe possibilism; possibility-branching; open future with yet-to-be-created future control-thoughts

B. block-universe eternalism; monopossibility; pre-existence of control-thoughts

Question 4: Do the writings of mystics explicitly advocate high dose?

A. Yes; mystics write about their intensity level, such as: “The previous time, I was really in the Holy Spirit, but this time, I was really, really, really in the Holy Spirit” (that is, intensity level = 3 Really’s, on the Really scale).

B. No; mystics write that either they were in the Holy Spirit, or not in the Holy Spirit.

Question 5: Which people does the word “everyone” mean?

A. Some people, but not others.

B. All people.

Question 6: Who is the Egodeath theory for?

A. Some people, but not others.

B. All people.

Question 6 ½: What does the word ‘mystics’ mean?

(Open-book exam question)
https://www.bing.com/search?q=define+mystics
https://www.bing.com/search?q=mystic

A. The conjectured set of people who merge ASC & OSC, who are beyond explanation, who are ultra-special and have alien minds 👽, who ordinary people cannot ever be like, for whom the Egodeath theory is irrelevant.

B. People who experience ASC multiple times, and who understand things like the Egodeath theory.

Question 7: Match the Pictures

(Advanced level; most leading art authorities and amateur history bloggers fail this one.)

Which of the following pictures matches the items in the above pictures: Picture A, Picture B, or Picture C?

Picture A:

Picture B:

Picture C:

Question 8 (essay question): What’s the difference between block-universe determinism vs. block-universe eternalism?

Write your explanation here: __________.

Question 9: Which model of time does David Bohm’s “non-local hidden variables” interpretation of Quantum Mechanics fit?

A. branching-universe possibilism

B. block-universe eternalism

Question 10: How many levels or positions are typically contrasted in the Egodeath theory? (Such as models of Myth; State of consciousness; Time; & Control)

A. Two.

B. Three.

Question 11: Which level of religion are most books about entheogen scholarship focused on?

A. High esotericism. (Analogy-based religion based in the altered state, explaining myth elements in terms of cognitive phenomenology observed and experienced in the altered state.)

B. Low esotericism. (Physical, literalist religion, focused on things that are observed and experienced in the ordinary state.)

C. Exotericism. (Literalist religion based in the ordinary state.)

this mp3 file hosting approach requires me to re-upload after a week

There are 2 download links near there, to get 3 voice-recording files:

• A link to get 2 .mp3’s for Jan 20:
  • “2-Level Egodeath Model.mp3”
  • “3-Level Egodeath Model.mp3”

This Page Advocates a Simplified, 2-Level Model; Beware of Subtly Mixing-in Some Type of 3-Level Model

This page implicitly advocates a simplified 2-level model.

Be careful covertly mixing-in possibly malformed 3-level models, into the primary, 2-level model of the Egodeath theory.

The problem of where to fit domino-chain determinism in a simplified 2-level binary model

Domino-chain determinism implies a type of 3-level model:

• free will
• domino-chain determinism
• block-universe determinism

Domino-chain determinism doesn’t obviously, clearly fit into one of the two, contrasted, reference positions that are defined in the primary, elementary, first-order, simplified, 2-level model of the Egodeath theory:

• possibility-branching free will
• block-universe eternalism no-free-will

domino-chain determinism usually is close to egoic possibilism-thinking, although it implies non-branching. domino-chain determinism implies non-branching by a very different mechanism than block-universe eternalism.

domino-chain determinism doesn’t match “branching universe”; it matches “block universe” — yet, domino-chain determinism tends to be closer to possibilism-thinking than to eternalism-thinking:

branching universe
vs.
block universe [domino-chain determinism fits here]

possibilism-thinking [domino-chain determinism largely remains here]
vs.
eternalism-thinking
