Enclosed space

After visualizing unconditional love and warmth around the heart chakra, got sick again. Soaked the sheets with a lot of sweat and had to make tea a few times during the night. This seems to indicate that there is indeed truth to "pain is just weakness leaving the body".

Anyway, went to work in the morning. Was a bit tired and slept while at work. While waiting in the queue at the canteen, I realized something.

Psychology of meeting oneself

Yesterday evening a colleague "asked" an interesting question. Or rather, he wondered if any psychologists had analyzed what would happen if a person met themselves on the street.

I thought that probably I would not get into a fight, but it would be a nasty experience. I then had to justify my opinion.

When two people work together / or just spend time together, they have to attenuate some of the personality traits. Only then would they be able to work together and complement each other. Now if the two people go separate ways, one would start to compensate for the lack of the other. This boosts personal development by enhancing personality traits which were otherwise lacking.

However, if I were to meet myself, then both me's would have the same traits. In order to spend time together or to work on a project together, both of us would need to suppress a lot of our traits and in the end neither of us would learn anything new.

Thought monologue of philosophy at the canteen

Let's take a person from the previously mentioned Discord server of depressed people. Chances are very high that the person would be suffering from depression, lack of self-esteem and hatred / hostility against themselves. Some try to compensate for the lack of self-esteem with arrogance, some look for relationships in the hopes that these would somehow magically save them.

As Gruber and EX3US from the same Discord server independently pointed out, it's isolation which causes depression. It could be a narrow field of interest such as Anime & Manga or psychokinesis, as Gruber pointed out. EX3US even emphasized that at least to some extent, the isolation is a conscious decision. People choose not to participate in social events which do not seem interesting enough. Soon after, they may notice that they are having less and less friends, and so on.

Let's now take mankind as a whole. Mankind has hatred, hostility against itself (all the wars and the "brilliant" ideas to cut down on population). Mankind is arrogant (only life-form in the universe), which might be an indication of low self-esteem (so insignificant in the vast cosmos). Maybe mankind also suffers from depression (we are a lost cause ruining our own planet and the space around it for selfish reasons)?

Hereby I assume that people compensate for what they have lost. If we take a person and isolate them from the society, perhaps we can obtain a good guesstimate at what mankind as a whole is like?

I found this to be mind-blowing. But then I started to wonder if this had any connection to the "microcosm" thingie, which I've heard about a lot but it has never really made much sense. If the universe is holographic (take a small piece and it reflects the whole thing), then what would we get if we separated a small piece of space-time?

If the underlying structure of the universe were the fabric of consciousness, then the same logic should apply to both people as well as the universe? Would the separated / enclosed piece of space-time evolve to become an independent universe? Are particles like bubbles of foam in space-time?

What is it that could be used to separate space-time? Would it be something akin to the dark veil? Is the golden fog merely dense consciousness, and the dark fog a thin consciousness? If so, then it should also be possible to have enclosed realms which could be completely cloaked?

A lot of interesting thoughts and follow-up questions. Would be interesting to test the hypothesis that by enclosing a piece of space-time, it would become a universe in itself.
