Biosphere consciousness
Mutual Arising Principles
The mind has matured and now focuses on essence, the broader perspective, reconciliation, and Mutual Arising Principles (MAP). These MAPs arise from the realisation that all consciousness must manifest in ‘pairs of opposites’. This wisdom, along with the accompanying enlightenment process, is not viewed as an attained state but as an ongoing cycle of exploration, expansion, and deepening.
Thoughts are perceived as substantial and dynamic, almost akin to living beings: ‘I don’t have an idea, the idea has me.’ Paradoxically, this observation affirms the experience of sovereignty, as one dedicates themselves with dignity to the mystery that guides them.
Adolescent counter-dependence returns in a heightened form, as an interconnected, awake, critically-mild state of mind serving humanity as a whole. It embodies an understanding of the profound coherence of all life processes: Biosphere Consciousness. Through this mindset, we recognise the interconnectedness of all life forms and cultivate compassion towards suffering. The highest MAP entails joyful participation in the sorrows of the world.
In Bitcoin-Leadership this capacity involves embracing paradoxes such as the scarcity of the coin facilitating abundance, or the mirrored wisdom that fiat has no bottom, hence Bitcoin has no top. Michael Saylor advises all Bitcoiners to maintain a cheerful disposition, which is linked to joyful participation in the sorrows of the world, or what can be termed as informed optimism.
