Breen’s Substack

The Church of the SubBreenius

It is a FACT taught by the illustrious sages of history that only 5% of mankind is capable of absorbing deep spiritual truths, the FACTUAL TRUTHS. No matter how many supporting documents and factual documents they see, people will choose depinealization and amygdala frontaling in order to lizard-brain away higher reality. The most obvio-blivious examp…

From Brain to Mind

Sleep and Brainwashing (the good kind)

Today we’re going to talk about the good type of brain washing (yes, there is such a thing)! This process occurs while we sleep. As our bodies rest and relax, our brains are still as busy as a hive of bees, cleansing away the toxins accumulated from metabolic activity during the day - hence the term “brainwashing”. A good night’s rest facilitates that n…

Adam Kadmon, Tabula Rasa

There is one theme far more consistent than any other in ancient wisdom: we are not God. We can never know God, we cannot even understand God, and for that very reason, we can never know with any certainty if God is even real. Whatever the nature of God, it is beyond the capacity of humans to truly comprehend. This warning has had to be repeated over an…

The ancient philosophy(s) I’m most familiar with are Platonism and Indian Vedanta/Buddhism.

However, that’s more of a faith or sentiment on my part; …
