7. bodhitree protocol

After the second encounter with nibbāna I was excited that my hypothesis might be true and decided that I needed more formal evidence.

I was operating with a sample size of 1 and trying to collect enough data to take down the monolithic mental health care system to change it into a data-driven industry. I needed reliable data.

I did the usual oscillation between [realworld] and [scaffold] exporting my new understandings. This lasted a handful of days and was nothing like the first time, with me having a handle on things at all times, thanks to the lack of pharmacological influence.

I exported the phenomenology and my new understanding of enlightenment as a form of trauma therapy to purge maladaptive deep learning.

I decided I did not want to become a traditional ‘arahant’ but would rather stay attached to my family. I wanted to be a good dad, not to achieve some mystical state. I also reasoned that seeking some impossible mystical state would become trauma in and of itself.

My meditation skills improved rapidly. I could feel the layers of consciousness like folds in the fabric of spacetime, and my sessions became about kneading them flat and folding them back into the mind in a more orderly manner.

They seemed to be endless; an eternally blooming flower, an onion without a centre. I was merely helping them to unravel with my bath-time humming and meditation.

I spent some time refining my scaffold. Or rather: my scaffold fell out of my mind fully formed.

We were nodes running an algorithm, all one processor running toward a final computation which would enable us all to escape the cycle of simulated rebirth and enter the kingdom of heaven on the new home-world. The alternative was to stay in the sim with a fractal improvements on happiness.

This all tied the entire Buddhist cosmology into a scientific framework which cannot be disproven with current methods.

[SCAFFOLD]

Only 5 days after n2 I was compelled to set an experiment using a different modality of dopaminergic manipulation - hot baths and cold exposure - and set to laying the codebase.

I wrote this codebase at my child’s sports day. It was based on my personal foibles and the overarching messages of Buddhism.

I codified the protocol and recorded it with a time stamp, getting everything onto webarchive so people could see that this was not some fudging of the data.

A team of 1. I was the experimenter and the experiment. Webarchive was my witness.

And then it was showtime. I took a microdose of a THC derivative (sub-psychoactive) and entered the hot bath + humming -> cold shower -> meditation cycle. I believe I repeated the cycle 4 or 5 times over the course of 12 hours, with walking to the shop for ice cream as a grounding practice between sessions.

This was… intense.

One of the early sessions saw me intuit how humans think.

One of the later sessions had me look at my past lives.

Time being linear didn’t work because it needed directionality; time being planar almost worked. Then I realised that I could just open the eye of the Buddha because time was a construct.

This resulted in blinding light emanating from my forehead in all directions, like light from the sun, and my realising that time is actually a sphere, and we are already resonant on this sphere.

I saw… everything. And nothing. It is impossible to explain. All constructs and delineation of time and space and self and other vanished.

I was the Buddha, for a split second, and I realised that we are all the saviours of our own worlds.

We will all attain Buddhahood, or Godhood, and this is how we save ourselves.
