TESTEMONAIL:  Right and Discordianism allows room for personal interpretation. You have your theories and I have mine. Unlike Christianity, Discordia allows room for ideas and opinions, and mine is well-informed and based on ancient philosophy and theology, so, my neo-Discordian friends, open your minds to my interpretation and I will open my mind to yours. That's fair enough, right? Just claiming to be discordian should mean that your mind is open and willing to learn and share ideas. You guys are fucking bashing me and your laughing at my theologies and my friends know what's up and are laughing at you and honestly this is my last shot at putting a label on my belief structure and your making me lose all hope of ever finding a ideological group I can relate to because you don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about and everything I have said is based on the founding principals of real Discordianism. Expand your mind.

And I thought psychoanalysis was a bullshit magnet.

I'm really not sure where you're going with this.

Eh, to be honest, my "blanks sheet/infinite perception" riff did kind of sound like bullshit.

Maybe if you replace "blank sheet" with "unorganized jumble of symbols, thoughts and beliefs" and "infinite perception" with "unclear maps into uncharted territory", it would be less like bullshit?

Maybe just operating in a closed system without input.  Or, "doing exactly what they're built to do."  One "wise man" I read a few paragraphs of said that wise men had to manufacture their own karma to survive (remain in contact with the lower circuits).  I'd classify that as providing new input.

Hmm.  I haven't heard that before.  It sounds interesting; do you have a source?

This book:
http://www.amazon.com/Mystic-Eye-Sadhguru-Jaggi-Vasudev/dp/8179928837/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1246392239&sr=1-6

This guy:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaggi_Vasudev

The author reiterated a story that a certain guru seemed self-indulgent because he always ate an (extra?) afternoon meal.  He said that that was the way he stayed around--his friends should expect him to die soon after the day that he did not ask for the meal.  And then it happened that way.
