For those more self actualized and more in tune with the universe in general then this post won't be all that surprising. If you are someone bogged down with mundane stuff and get angry every time you see something you don't like or agree with then it'll this post will sound cray cray.
This post isn't about mental health but stuck up Victor Mature types will take it that way ... cos they don't get it. Not a paranoid Schizophrenic rant about big pharma watching us via the microwave or chemtrails being used to alter our minds. Old Knudsen is in no way a paranoid Schizophrenic and if he was I'm sure one of the voices in his head would tell him .... did you just hear a click?
Buddhists have the whole Yin Yang balance thing and also karma. We are responsible for our own happiness and misery, not some mysterious external force of good and evil. In fact the actual words good and evil being English don't translate properly to how Buddhists think about morality.
Hinduism also has karma and you can be punished for deeds done in past lives. Yeah both religions are full of shit in general as like the Christian, Muslim and Judaic ones.
Old Knudsen does believe in reincarnations (respawned) but rather than be punished by the universe for past lives we get the change in our current one to fix it and not repeat those mistakes. We get to chose what kind of people we want to be. Things from decades ago can still define people if they allow it or they can work at moving on.
If someone makes us angry they have a power over us. If someone treats us poorly and we put up with it then we are allowing them to do it. Other reasons and factors may help us make the choice as to what to do but there is always a choice ... not always a happy one though.
Trumptards, Brexitards, Vegans and ridiculously attractive people are the universe's tools to cause chaos or to keep your level of suffering pretty high. The reason will be made clear later.
Ever think that reality is just so dumb and ridiculous that it can't be happening? I don't just mean in Florida.
Ever take the left path instead of the right and narrowly avoid disaster? Pure chance or instinct perhaps. As if someone was whispering into you ear.
Cause and effect is the true name of karma. The web of possibilities is so vast that we cannot see how some bloke catching an earlier train to work halfway across the world could effect your life in any way. The pattern of events that lead to you could be tiny or even take years.
That moment when you realise Thanos is the hero of the movie and the ultimate environmentalist
We live in a digital world and everything in the universe boils down to numbers. Maybe that's why Old Knudsen has a certain level of protection ... he don't do numbers too good.
If you play a video game on a console you make those characters act out a role and do things. The Sims has you as their god and those ppl can live or die at your whim. If you don't get someone to the toilet they'll piss themselves.
In the future and at the moment, computer geeks keep creating Artificial Intelligence with the hopeful outcome to create beings that will think and act for themselves.
Olivia Munn getting pounded for all of those that want sex, not higher thinking.
Those AI beings created will go off and create beings themselves who will act and think for themselves who in turn will make others.
If you look at the Earth. Creatures and plants growing and evolving. Everything changing and happening. To someone not paying attention it can look like chance. There are video games like Evolve or Populous that pretty much do the same thing to how the planet and creatures evolved.
We are like impotent gods who can delete if they get it wrong .... or cause a massive flood only in the Middle East if you go by the religious fairy tales.
I'm bored, time for a war.
We have only started to created these pseudo worlds saved in cyber space or on your Play Station. Going by planets like Mars the whole terraforming thing has come and gone many times over and you get left with the evidence which is there (saved) for possible new adventures in the future.
Thinking about the infinite amount of possible realities it would be fair to suggest that humanity is one such reality. If cannot be ruled out.
Is the world a play thing for some bored alien in its mom's basement? Perhaps it started the game called Earth but a better game came out so like us it has moved onto the latest trend and we act out how we are supposed to in the background unsupervised.
The game rights itself now and then by tweaking with our fates but on the whole our actions determine outcome. Not every character is on the same level, some are way higher than others which explains the constant bullshit and poor decisions made in the world.
