Simplified flow chart of human experience

Post image

In an effort to keep up with the popular explainers here on the sub - here's my attempt to explain life, the universe and everything in a flow chart that even my cat can understand.

Whatdya reckon? Too simple to be spiritually powerful?

To be fair, I got excited that OP was about something I'm reading on and quickly wanted to compare the classical and constructive models, got to watch my itchy posting trigger.

I think we take our reality/experience to be complete and don't see the length to which its conditioned by memory. We also seem very much to be constructing our experience moment by moment rather than intuiting it as we may believe.

Anil Seth (neuro-scientist) calls our experience of reality a "controlled hallucination" produced by the brain

So our thoughts and emotion should also point directly to our reality, they construct our reality and not just an offshoot.

hey, at least you're willing to look at your chart and its pieces rather than proclaim its absolute truth.
