DELUSIONAL THINKING

The wrong questions keep being asked, and the wrong premises set forth. Somehow, the Western thought process, (perhaps produced by Enlightenment ideas of the planet as a machine, or of us having evolved to the ultimate state of understanding) cannot grasp the fact that EVERYTHING about its epistemological reckoning is utterly and totally deluded. It simply can't work. it's badly formulated, and out of step with common sense. Which doesn't mean it can be replaced. Thinking that would be another example of a faulty mind set--that every problem has a solution along the lines of previous ones. Everything might be wrong, but the means to correct it don't exist, either epistemologically, or energy- or culture-wise. Our system has to be looked at, as if for the first time, using faculties that are finally unstuck, to see where we are and what we might do about it. There is no top down, global solution to be hoped for. Cheap energy, harnessed within a crazy thought process like we have would simply apply more madness on top of what exists. It's the inner more than the outer world that needs to change.
