Episode 38: Good Pain Has God in It | K.G.I. Podcast

Your body is your main sacrifice. In this episode I walk through what that actually means — why the body has to be constantly opposed, why dualism is the wrong frame because you are your body and your mind both, and why the question of which one you are more determines who you really are. I bring back the piano example — the fingers that run on their own once you stop watching them — and use it to scale the principle through parents, teachers, and the state. The tyrannical state treats citizens like a possessive parent treats their child. Tyrannical government is the same structure as the body that has overthrown the mind. I argue that without theology we have no symbols, and without symbols we have no way to hold meaning together. Symbol means to throw things together. Diabolic means to break things apart. Your body is closer to Lucifer than you think — the light-bringer that becomes the divider if you don't control it. Sex severed from intimacy doesn't exist; it's a different category of being mislabeled. Pornography doesn't satisfy because it can't. And then the part I didn't plan to walk: pain. Good pain has God in it. Bad pain has resentment underneath. Keep your pain for yourself. Don't share it online. Your pain is the engine. Sharing it gives it teeth.My book Mythos: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GX2ZN1TKMy Blog https://kirillkhrestinin.com
