Mike's Mastermind

Hiding behind false narratives and dishonesty we find true intentions

Dr Mike explores his concepts that have helped shape a new Ultra Being philosophy that structures itself specifically as enlightenment

Your self esteem and awareness is often obscured by what you think yet many of us are unaware of how our iGO perspective affects a “noun” reality - get the inside scoop here!!

Its been sometime since I posted a Mikes Mastermind MP3 into the podcast platform (see my youtubes!) however, today is a special day as my eldest daughter Elsa graduates HS tonight so its a celebration and consideration where my life (maybe yours too) exists within one's perspective.I don't go that deep into my 'ultra-being' philosophy keeping this message light yet direct in sharing the thought that is time for all to have a breakthrough, a graduation and evolution or initiation unto the next level of one's existence.  That is what my work surmises and hope there will be something here you can relate to.  Enjoy (;'   DrMike.orgAboutMES.com (what AI surmised!)Grand Tour Ideas: GrandTourIdeas.comSampling of deep ideas and considerations 

This is an interesting take on my ideas as Notebook LM decifered listening to a few of my recordings.Its pretty good, accurate and gets to the core of some of my thinking - what do you think?Would love to know your thoughts!Michael RatnerMikeRatner.com

In taking a "rolling stance" as the teme for this episode we examine states of flow that bring us to the consideration enlightenment defind by our lifestyle choices and way of ultra-being.  UBE3 is shorthand for Ultra-Being an Excellent Example of Enlightenment as you know it to be.  This talk continues the examination of how can we become more masterful and effectual in our way of UBE3 among others.  MikesMastermind.comGrandTourIdeas.comCommunityConversations.com

It's nice to read a comment from a listener who remembers meeting you at some event long ago past or perhaps was a friend or contact you have not seen in ages.  We all age and mature depending upon how and where you interact with people their impression and memory of you or the circumstances certainly can impact their regard and way that they treat (or talk about) you.In this talk I relate back to someone who knew me in high school who happened to post on my Facebook and we struck up a conversation sharing our life's story and we both found it interesting how our recollections of each other informed the dimension of how our personalities at the time came out.  Since then, it has been many moons, I have appeared in different ways (formats) that have lent itself to nicknames, monikers and avatars that I discuss in terms of the projected persona and how we tend to relate to an image rather than the wizard behind the curtain.  It's a catch-up episode for that old friend who was curious about the adventures and direction my life's path had taken in my IGO world.  It motivated me to start creating an About MEs type recollection (audio form & writing).Hope you find some intrique in it. I've just launched the StudioPodcasts.com website and the actual location will be open next month (April - May 2024) we'll have a Grand Opening Party and festive kick-off time for sure!Other links/sites mentioned:  MikesMastermind.com  /  IGOresearch.com  / GrandTourIdeas.com 

In this episode I attempt to put together (or cross breed) two of my concepts in relationship to each other. The CARES model of Community Action Research Engagement (as) Science and Arena Ratio Fields (ARF) in how they correspond and perhaps relate. There is something to be said about the quality of presence in how we are in observation of phenomenon and what our experience of the moment comes to represent – listen and learn! Thanks, Mike MikesMastermind.com

This is an interesting talk (episode) for myself delving into a topic I know nothing about. I say so in part jest, at least from not having studied anything about what spatial thinking scientifically is or what 'geo' graphic conscious affective perspectives are (if they exist) and what those supposed areas of understanding imply so, I have to imagine how they may contribute towards my work. However, from conjecture of a future research perspective I would love to explore and engage in it – just from spurious conjecture of what I guestimate the importance and implications of ‘it’ may be… Following up from the previous (just uploaded episode prior to this one) talk about the CARES model of community engagement in the field of participatory research (and how we ought to be more 'present' aware of our experience within it) – I’m intrigued by different approaches to create dynamics of increased capacity that translate from what I described in earlier talks as ARF (Arena Ratio Fields) or axials of experience that could be related (maybe) into a geometric framework. Interpreting the observation of a viewing organism; new thinking considers the linguistic coding of the experience as shifts of view in perspective that can be represented quite simply as vector spaces (see my writing on Metasphere) and alternates that affect perspective (see my BIDECK writing) that thus become consciously led or induced into experiential coordinated systems. That is my wild take on not knowing anything about what I am conjecturing! I approached some of this thinking (perhaps very unconsciously) in my WeltSchloss.com writing (world built dwelling experiences) that may in some cultures, have an orientation calqued on human orientation and cognitive alternation within one’s experience (and gain insight into what is sensed, revealed or hinted at interpreting) in recognition of spatial dynamics may potentially offer and the impact effect upon our thinking or orientation of experience itself within spatial contexts. There is much to explore, and it corresponds to the potential opportunity I have to work with (seems to be) a remarkable conscious collective of (human experience and social space) field researchers whom I would love to collaborate with and in a higher dimension open up (even if just for ourselves) this dimension of spacial relationship consideration.

Honoring MLK day of service (today) mid-month of January 2024 I'm talking about CARES as a model for Community Based Participatory Research and how examining the quality of engagement can determine enlightened understanding of our experiences and improvement (learning) practices.Many ideas are included here and if you are new to MikesMastermind.com its a good place to start!Future project endeavors for consideration (that I'd take on) include starting up a Community Studies collective journal and Impact newsletter - just ideas (Gendenkens) I'm playing with for 2024My take on Community-based participatory research (CBPR) is what I’ve termed as Community Action Research Engagement (CARE) add an "S" for 'science' (ref: Thomas Dolby 80's hit) is what I consider as a highly enriched experiential partnership approach to research that equitably involves, as you would expect, community members, organizational representatives, and researchers in all aspects of the research process in which all of us as partners with ease contribute our unique expertise and share in decision making and project ownership.The aim of CARE as other research approaches share is the goal of increasing knowledge, but alas CARE goes deeper into the discovery and understanding of a given phenomenon that in whole "integrates the knowledge gained with interventions and policy and social change to improve the (lived experience or outcome) health and quality of life of community members.”* All partners must determine if there is an issue and what the action or intervention will be. The iterative process may not happen with community partners unless its explicitly part of the study design and the distinction is by itself a contemplation of the experience engaging in that world and, in the process, holistically considers all possible implications. There are 7 factors I consider vital to CARE: 1. AMIGO = All Mutal Interest & Goal Objectives are identified (all agree on common goals & objectives) Before starting a CARE project, you need to identify the shared goals and interests of the community and the researchers. This AMIGO approach is like most research outcome goals except it exists in a ‘felt’ dimension of owning it.AMIGO helps establish TIES formed within a common vision, it aligns expectations, and defines roles and responsibilities. We can use tools such as community asset mapping, needs assessment, and logic models to identify the strengths, needs, and resources of the community and how they relate to our core research questions. 2. Effective Deliberate Communication Messaging is key to building trust and rapport in the CARES model where I would accel in this role. Imagining my working with this new conscious collective of social (AR) scientists coming together -- 'we' will need to communicate frequently, openly, and respectfully with all community partners. We also need to listen actively, acknowledge different perspectives, and address any concerns or conflicts that may arise. We can use strategies such as regular meetings, newsletters, social media, and feedback mechanisms to facilitate communication and keep everyone informed and engaged. I am well versed in using these methods and many more such as producing automated webinars, getting media coverage, exhibiting at trade shows, event tables, public presentations, press conferences, blogs, podcasts, etc. 3. Respect Diversity, Openness and Cultural Engagement I have long been involved in diverse communities and causes that have different values, beliefs, norms, and practices. I recognize the need to respect and will appreciate the cultural diversity of our community partners and totally avoid imposing limits, assumptions, or biases. We can use methods such as cultural humility, cultural competence, and cultural safety to learn about the culture of the community, adapt research methods and interventions, and ensure that any project is culturally appropriate and respectful. 4. Share Super-Powers and Resources Deep CARE is based on the principle of mutual benefit and reciprocity. This efforts will need to share power and resources with community partners and ensure that they have a meaningful voice and influence in the research process. Let’s also recognize and compensate (acknowledge and reward) the contributions and expertise of the community and provide enriched opportunities for idealized capacity building and empowerment. As an example, we can use approaches like my CommunityConversations.com invite to enlist participatory decision making, co-creation, and co-ownership to share power and resources, etc.5. Disseminate and Apply Results One of the goals of Community Based Participatory Research is to produce knowledge that is useful and actionable for the community. The need to disseminate and apply the results in ways that are accessible, relevant, and respectful to our community partners is what will define CARE as a main distinction in the quality-of-service CRISP can offer to clients. We must involve them in the dissemination and application process and acknowledge their role and impact. We can use formats such as community forums, policy briefs, and action plan parties (app) among other means to disseminate and apply results with CARE.6. Evaluate and Sustain Relationships CBPR is not a one-time event, but a long-term relationship. To make the distinction of CARE we need to evaluate and sustain the relationships that we will have built with our community partners and ensure that they are mutually beneficial and ongoingly satisfying. We also need to celebrate the achievements, learn from the challenges, and plan for the future of our CARE projects and partnerships. CRISP can use tools such as surveys, interviews, and focus groups to evaluate and sustain relationships in the process.7. Operationally Sustain Vision and Success My CARE approach is an ongoing sustained enterprise of experiential learning and a developmental process of personal growth and an A-level professional endeavor. What I mean as seen in my role of outreach encompasses a quality of relationships that breeds involvement and consideration for the action research mission (is it written down?) and charter. Part of this exists in ongoing training, facilitation and task-oriented review of our organizational processes and management (manners in which we operate). The goal (for me) is for all of us to be exceptional in our peer reviewed work that is considered top notch.This explaination is adapted from an A.I. LinkedIn article that was formulated which I enhanced (and got contributor points for!:)

XQ is a life quotient I made up that incorporates self-mastery of both mental attunement (IQ) and emotional Intelligence (EQ)////////////////XQ relates to self-realization and the eXpression of happiness and success in life, therefore XQ matters just as much as EQ or IQ. Theoretically, it would be possible to express oneself more honestly and consciously with XQ mastery. Expressing UBE3 (Ultra-Being an Excellent Example of Enlightenment) is the XQ experience and exploration into how you can boost your inner true-self intelligence, thereby enabling you to be genuine in your lifestyle choices, relationships, and goals.//////////////////At the start of this XQ New (Year) Series we will explore the dimensions of:What is X intelligence or experience of Ultra Being as XQ?Why is XQ realization of conscious intelligence so important?Experience of UBE3 Presence: Skills to maximize your XQIdeal Self-Realization, key skill set #1: ME=Moment ManagementKey skill 2: IGOism and "I" awarenessKey skill 3: Social awarenessKey skill 4: Relationship EngagementWe will explore what XQ is, why it's essential & how it is also an intelligence quotient like IQ or EQ.///Expression of Higher Self (UBE3) intelligence (otherwise quantified as my X quotient or XQ) is the ultimate ability to be present in a capacity that allows attention to be fully available, empty of manipulation, societal programming or exterior circumstance of being distracted or controlled.This X factor is an intelligent detached use of presence "ness" or "ultra-being" in the moment that allows full eXpression in its proper fitting context, and manage your own eXperience in whole-brained, holistic positive ways to communicate fully and effectively, it increases your ability to present and empathize with others, overcome challenges and defuse conflict.XQ is a higher-form of intelligence that integrates with IQ & EQ to help you build stronger ties in relationships, success at school or work, and XQ to achieve personal goals. It can also help you to connect with your feelings, turn intention into reality, and make better informed decisions about what matters most to you. We can integrate ideas and define XQ by four attributes:ME=Management – Ability to control impulsive feelings and behaviors, manage your emotions in healthy ways, take initiative, follow through on commitments, and adapt to changing circumstances and attitude adjustment thereby making 'smarter' decisions.IGOism & I-awareness – You recognize your own projections whether it be BIDECK inspired or emotions felt your interpretations affect your thoughts, word use and behavior. XQ helps you know your strengths and weaknesses, and have inner knowingness & self-confidence.Social awareness – You have empathy. You can understand the emotions, needs, and concerns of other people, pick up on emotional cues, feel comfortable socially, and recognize the power dynamics in a group or organization.Relationship Engagement with the World (WeltSchloss) – You know how to develop and maintain eXcellent relationships, communicate clearly, inspire and influence others, work well in a team, lead ideals and manage conflict.To listen to the original XQ episode on the day I came up with the concept CLICK HEREStay tuned to MikesMastermind.com podcast for further episode developments. (; Thnx-- Mike

In August of 2022 on MikesMastermind.com I came up with the idea of XQ (the bastard child of IQ and EQ) lol. The XQ concept would be a consciousness expression quotent determining our ability to express oneself within attained (theoretically) higher-states of "I" awareness and one's capacity towards UBE3 "Ultra-Beingness" lived fully. You are the XQ of Ultra-Being! An interesting consideration contemplated upon in this episode for the New YOU Year (;

In this last talk of 2023, Michael gives a deeper explanation of IGO for the first time as an acronym and further discets how the human mind projects its sense of self into allusions that it believes is reality and something it has to deal with.

There is an assumption that society at large is asleep, intentionally dulled and disattracted that has affected all walks of life. I term it the MASS TRANCE in my talks. In this episode I explain what the MT is and how we can best potentially wake-up from it. It's not what most think...More at MikesMastermind.com and GrandTourIdeas.com

What would the 'brainchild' of marrying IQ with EQ be like? We'd have to name it XQ as the quality of your ability to 'eXpress yourself" intelligently and this idea includes a form of emotive elegance and space (dimensional Metasphere) affect that can also be defined as intelligence speaking perhaps with a twist of pose and touch of respectful humor -- lets qualify what XQ character could be with certainty. That is what today's podcast show is about.I would argue XQ must be equated as elegant expression combing both IQ & EQ in the highest regard whose batter is smothered (foundational base) in heartfelt intention (otherwise doesn't qualify).-- That's the cherry on top of a stick of whipped delight that I want to wave around as my new term of enligtened expression-hood - officially you are witness whose wise-quotient I now deem as XQ! Listen deep my friends as I get on my proverbial podcast pedestal for ya'all to hear ye - hark ye, etc... Child of wonder, hand me the emoji crown of wisdom once held on the head of Zeus and let’s explore this idea of XQ: lets reveal it, shall I explain... just listen to the show... lolAddendum Notes:We can comprehend aspects of XQ when we filter through our BIDECK assumption and express consideration of the perceived self (IGO) or other projections via our TWA (attention on our thought processes) thus having an evolved (matured) self-actualized XQ experience - you are now enabled towards enlightened expressiveness - yes, yes, by jove you've gotten it - lol - IT IS (XQ) what it is as the "UltraBEINGness" of the experience being expressed (perhaps). Could levels of XQ be what gives life? Its appreciation of the present moment. Wellness and whole brained utilization is XQ. Mastering XQ ultization means you are expressing ultra-beingness and in this soul sensation (Aretha!) feeling is X elevated in spirit. It has impact because it is ULTRA-being here & now (it's the true divine essence expressed as you are UBE3). <see other titles in this series>>IN SUMMARY explains what is XQ -- now we must ask what is ZQ? New breath freshner? No clue!Maybe YQ becomes the ultimate expression of godlike loving you! See my LovingConversations.com project (thank - you!)In cosmic conversational realm of today's podcast I'll conjecture the seemingness of XQ and explore the supply or source (geyser) generating XQ where in this divine-like plane of existence is UBE3 (see other shows) -- a place where all is well and fantastic - excellence on this level perhaps includes what is resolute, amazing, open expressiveness where nothing but this moment matters.UBE3 is the ultimate expression of XQ and so we begin with a process combing IQ and EQ into a greater conscious understanding (here found is kinetic potential for connectivity and congeniality)If true a maximation of XQ a quotient expressed as E3, that is a game-changer idea we make XQ our thing -- we will need to create a scale to verify this expression and test it out among participants and experience (experiment with) common sense notions of what "it" is like being able to relate well with each other and correspond as such.

It's amazing since the dawn of humankind we have realized a sense of self expression that enables communication describing ourselves to ourselves observed in the 3rd person which is one of the many qualities unique to our species. Even more amazing throughout our history this imagined sense of self while referred to as a self-concept in psychology, sociology and philosophy has remain unnamed -- that is until now.Welcome to the exploration and explanation of what I have termed the IGO. Get it - I Go? Yes, the sense of self that lives (projected) in imagination and yet, we have not met... until now.Listen and enjoy (think deeply!)

ARF - Arena Ratio Fields are interpretations of transpondance and identity relationships that occur within the Metasphere qualifying merits or choice response & treatment to perceived otherThis concept can be associated to my writing about the GEMS of the WeltSchloss (also a talk)ARF can incorporate CRINGE Factors and perceived status and hierarchy of power, personal projection affecting the regard and how engages others whether conscious of behavior or not.My ‘arena’ is the playground of imagination and perceived ‘us’ situation allowing for variables or limitation restricting or defining rules or agreements of reality that then align to our interpretation ARF- Arenas for consideration can be quite large however we rationalize and often narrow our perspective to the immediacy and importance we consider a situation or person (ratio) and in this regard we respond related to topics relevant or issues related to our ARF concerns (field).How ARF you today?

In this episode of Mike's Mastermind I ask if YOU are with me in examining these concepts - particularly the "WeltSchloss" conceiving while exploring the world dwelling experience.There is some very deep stuff here as I ask for your hand in support of taking this to the next level of understanding and application. More of these concepts can be found at BIDECK.MassTrance.com &MikesMastermind and GrandTourIdeas.com Thank youMikeRatner.com

Welcome to Mike's Mastermind...In this episode we examine the qualities of UBE3 which translates into "Ultra Being an Excellent Example of Enlightenment" suggesting a finer sense of "I" Awareness to where one is conscious and considerate of their "T.W.A" (thoughts, words and acts).Lets go deeper into itMore can be found at MikesMastermind and GrandTourIdeas.com Thank you

The experience of "being in the world" as a sense of reveal and self-realization can be measure of the quality of our MEST (Matters, Energy, Space & Time) existence (& BIDECK dwelling within). Realizing this is a world induced through our choosing (at least in regard) we come to recognize we've co-created our own experience of something that has been built and now dealt with.Exploring the concept of UBE3 (explained within) is as a dimension of conscious choosing and as a door to our potential awakening is what the WeltSchloss offers (my minted German word). Its what my talk today is about. The deeper reflection is observing our own participation in the WeltSchloss (how we are ultra-being in the world) and how a reflected upon practice of Ultra-Being present and detached offers self-liberation.Hope you enjoy and exemplify the practice of UBE3 (explained within).

Hello in this Mike's Mastermind talk, I reflect on what the WeltSchloss means in terms of 'reality wreckoning' to where our interpretation and perspective of the Welt-world and Schloss-dwelling become qualities of enhancement if not fine-tuning into handling whose outcomes allow us to make better more informed choices.

Welcome to Mike's Mastermind, my hit psuedo-podcast found at MikesMastermind.comIn this talk, I want to explore a 'relatedness being' concept found within the WeltSchloss.com I shalt call “Correspondence Coherence.”Having a sense of coherence (SOC) is an aspect of self that is recognized as a global construct expressing the degree to which a person has a pervasive and dynamic, but lasting, feeling that the internal and external stimuli and stressors in his/her environment are (a) comprehensible, i.e., predictable, structured, and explicable, (b) manageable, i.e., there are resources available to meet the demands of these stimuli, and (c) meaningful, i.e., the demands are challenges worthy of engagement and coping.It has been proposed that a strong SOC would help to mediate and ameliorate stresses by influencing coping efforts. This concept is the basis of the “salutogenetic model,” i.e., explaining how people cope with stressors such as illness and how people remain in reasonably good physical and emotional health despite the stressors and environmental “insults.”To explore this dimension and to explain a person's position or change on a health-disease continuum, health sociologist Aaron Antonovsky developed a 29-question self-rating scale that has been widely employed in research. Primary research dealt with the feasibility, reliability, and validity of the SOC scale in a variety of countries and settings, and then employed it as a measure of both independent and dependent (outcome) variables. (Giora Kaplan, in Encyclopedia of Social Measurement, 2005)Although the SOC scale was first developed some 25 years ago, it is in wide use in a broad range of health research. A PubMed search for literature since 2000 turned up over 140 publications using this concept/instrument. These research efforts include studies on (1) general health, quality of life, and subjective well-being, (2) adjustment to natural life changes such as menopause and old age, (3) coping/adjustment to illness such as chronic heart failure, stem-cell transplantation, and orthopedic injury, (4) coping with trauma such as posttraumatic stress disorder, (5) dealing with illness of a family member and/or the stress of caretaking, and (6) assessing intervention programs.Having a sense of coherence in relationship with others can also be characteristic of the quality of correspondence one has with his/her/their environment and situations we are all dealing with. The idea of being a bit more consciously attuned and (I) aware of the choices we make in life reflect back characteristics in our demeanor and how we are present to each other. Having I-awareness of correlation in how we correspond and are coherent in our environment can help define the better way of being. These concepts while experimental are tested to help refine best practices in Ultra-Being attuned, loving and presents an opportunity to explore ideas and agreed upon ways of better relating to the "Weltschloss" (the world we are dwelling in) that affect our "we" experiences. Examining and exploring (thought gendenkens) the values inherent in the vibe of correspondence and coherence correlates (in theory) to our shared moments, deepest cares and enlightened ideals.Thus it is our experience of life and each other that we can define “Correspondence Coherence” which pans out from an interplay of how we perceive (supposed) reality that in the end, when refined equate the qualities of how we are in the pursuit of self-mastery and 'Ultra-being' present.How are you being today in the 'awake dimension' of Weltschloss?How are you a different better person because of your sense of 'it'?////////////////////////////Want more?

This morning, I recorded another episode of my UBE3 philosophy podcast part of Mikes Mastermind!

Check it out!This recording is made as a gift for my WISR grad advisor who supported my research work and development of these concepts that I have since expanded upon.

I'm quickly uploading this prior to attending the start of my Hypno training class - yeah going to add it to my future work exploring sense of being through trance exploration -- will elaborate more on that later --- to set the setting - so to say.... What are the 3 dimensions of 'living spaces' where consciousness and connection to our surroundiings abound? In the WeltSchloss and Metasphere writings I want to gain a better understanding of the world and universal conditions affecting our ability to comprehend the finer qualities of our existence and to do so from a potentially highly evolved conscious perspective. As a thought experiment how would that play out? We need to have a foundational understanding at the base level of our 'world dwelling' (Weltschloss) and this talk explores the big bang backdrop of the MEST-UP universe psychologically mis-interpreted and then we can approach revealing our sense of the Metasphere and Weltschloss between us. What can UltraBeing present and loving offer us to transform the old world paradigm? This is not to say there aren't other more intimate spaces or dimensions to explore between us - this is to just get our gravity bearings right before we start. -(; Enjoy and please share!

What if your conscious experience of the present moment took you to the most profound edge of an ideal realization to where now it’s widened perspective is vast, totally freeing and thus becomes only about living your love-life as ongoing enlightenment and engagement?- Would you automatically go about evolving your life by manifesting your heart's utmost-desires? What would it be like for you in this dimension of ultra-being-nice and how would it change your world? What impact would this way of living potentially bring to the planet and in the transformation of our humanity? Is this another level of consciousness empowered by its consideration of what dwells centered within us?To have a well-rounded perspective that brings inclusivity into quality engagement brings forth healthy holistic possibilities of a great relationship (fitting into whatever corresponds within your existence) because you recognize its potential on this level. Here one can appreciate lovingly whatever appears in mind and as experience comes to greet us in our present moment it can be as an opportunity to stand together upon this precipice that our presence brings forth and furthers it.This fine attuned attention exalts the potential for sacred union, love's entirety becomes fully realized and Ultra-Beingness brightens our life experience. There is some deep consideration here I call the precipice that now becomes felt as presence and it offers a cosmic compass or needed data (Bideck.MassTrance.com) to help decifer and decide on which direction gives us a 'wreckoning' that brings forth a way to divine destiny, it is what calls us. This talk although brief (7 minutes) takes us into a deep dimension of what I have termed WeltSchloss - I hope you love it so much and can deeply engage exploring it's concepts (;As we are conscious of this moment together it can inform dimensions of our direction and our care for how we correspond within it can disclose a complete consideration for what is possible and if desired, next step choices seem to be automatically known to us or are offered (dharmic direction?)Within this realm the sense of ‘Metasphere’ is fully felt and it in some manner of appreciation becomes sacred or at least offers profound experiences that equate to enlightenment. The question is the the quality of engagement, desire and total willingness to find these GEMS!Please enjoy and engage the ideas and contemplate whatever meanings get revealed for you.Also more can be found at MikesMastermind.com and GrandTourIdeas.com -- Thank you, Michael

Today's talk is a reflection on just that subject imagining having that type of Loving Conversation, what would be the considerations for everyone involved to come together? Enjoy and celebrate it.Check out LovingConversations.com & MikesMastermind.com for more info.

My work on IGOism.com is shaping up into a possible book proposal and the next level of consideration ponders what the dynamics of being able to use the IGO concept as a form of psychotherapy would be like. I hope you enjoy it - let me know. MikesMastermind.com

Confronting realities within the construct of the Weltschloss is considered in the brief exploration of what inputs and qualities are most admired or appreciated when a meeting of the minds occurs. Its a deep consideration of trust, respect and being open to new ideas and possibilities. More at WeltSchloss,com and see earlier episodes for further exploration. MikesMastermind.com podcast

We all want to improve conditions and make the world a better place but to do it requires transforming the paradigm and what I describe as the 'metasphere' between us allowing for the opportunity for quantum change to take place. In examining existing social structures and institutions as well as our own individual conduct within this realm I present what I sense are the groundfloor components of approaching change and that is the WRECK formula. Yes, we want to elegantly wreck the old paradigm and not uneccessarily hurt or disorient people that end up only making things worse.The WRECK formula is... approaching the present moment opportunity in this way of being...Warm and welcoming (for what is)Real, relevent and right "Easy (exploring enlightened possibilities)Considerate (for new ideas, immediate circumstances, conditions and the company you keep)Kind (in all facets of your dealing - as you can)That'll do it each and everytime (; Find more at MikesMastermind.com

Exploring the GEMS to be 'minded' in the Weltschloss is the preface for the next chapter of a potential book on the ontological subject of 'World Building and Dwelling'. There are a number of interesting ideas that will be presented including the word Imqualia which I will talk more specifically about later. The GEMS are conditions of placement in our perception and adaptation to our dwelling in the world.GivensEnvironsMilleu Settings I'm excited to share these insights and hope something gets revealed in your consideration of these ideas. You can find more to read about these as a developing writing project at WeltSchloss.com and you can get a general over-all-view of my other related social theories at GrandTourIdeas.com Thank you for listening and sharing as you will.MikeRatner.com More recordings can be found at MikesMastermind.com

Meeting the Weltschloss (new word) continues the exploration into what I relate to as 'World Building & Dwelling" in terms of our being in the ontological sense. These relational aspects and situational feelings (social climate or metasphere) can become determinents (and/or informants) affecting the qualities of our existence. This idea includes our 'dwelling' relationship to the MEST (matter, energy, space and time) dynamics and these have inherent expressed qualities inclusive of our imposed structures and collective illusiions that then become made-up reality backdrops between us - I hope you find the talk interesting.You can find more information about these writings at WorldTourIdeas.com and WeltSchloss.comThank youMikeRatner.comMore talks are found at:MikesMastermind.com

I was recently asked in reply from an email when a listener pondered if there was a relationship between my two current writing projects exploring what is the Weltschloss and IGO. I hadn't really considered it before as they are two different undertakings but since the questions was posed (and it was a good one) I wanted to answer it by taking on the possibilities of their interaction and its implication. I hope I did so to your satisfaction. Please let me know!You can find additional writing relating to each of the above concepts and more by clicking on these links:Weltschloss.com (ontological 'world dwelling' exploration)IGOism.com (projected imagined sense of identity or selfie of the mind) GrandTourIdeas.com (an overview of my main ontological ideas)More of these talks can be found at MikesMastermind.com and I am MikeRatner.comThanks!

Here is another term created for examination of the Weltschloss I'm calling Imqualia (em /ˈkwɑːliə/ or /ˈkweɪliə/; singular form: quale) are defined as individual instances of subjective, conscious experience but in this case how I am using it is relating to our sense and the defining of 'it' as what comes across in our determinations as an implicit or implicated quality of being. The term qualia derives from the Latin neuter plural form (qualia) of the Latin adjective quālis (Latin pronunciation: [ˈkʷaːlɪs]) meaning "of what sort" or "of what kind" in a specific instance, such as "what it is like to taste a specific apple — this particular apple now". Examples of qualia include the perceived sensation of pain of a headache, the taste of wine, as well as the redness of an evening sky. As qualitative characters of sensation, qualia stand in contrast to propositional attitudes,[Kriegel, Uriah (2014). Current Controversies In Philosophy of Mind. New York: Taylor & Francis. p. 201In philosophy of mind] where the focus is on beliefs about experience rather than what it is directly like to be experiencing.Philosopher and cognitive scientist Daniel Dennett once suggested that qualia was "an unfamiliar term for something that could not be more familiar to each of us: the ways things seem to us".[Dennett, Daniel (1985-11-21). Quining Qualia. Oxford University Press]What I am hoping to achieve in how I explain Imqualia as distinctive in this talk is by deriving my essence or relationship to with or what I am consciously experiencing while also defining (sharing) how it relates to the moment it arises and presents itself. I am having to relate to attitude I am projecting into while perceiving from it (metasphere creation) and how my interpreting it may be shaping its relevancy and impacts in the moment and/or shaping it as a topic so I find implicit in meaning and manner regarded as such Imqualia. This recognition helps me better adjust and relate to what I think or sense I'm dealing with.

Going through my recordings found this by chance. As a new year project ought to go through my mp3 fiiles and label them. Anyway, cute as they were it's worth sharing and perserving in the moment recall of another time dimension - its onlly 1 min and random -- enjoy~

Welcome to our talk about Weltschloss (world building) which I adpated from Erschlossenheit (German), which literally means "development and, comprehension". It refers to how things become intelligible and meaningfully relevant to human beings, by virtue of being part of an ontological world – i.e., a pre-interpreted and holistically structured background of meaning. This understanding is said to be first disclosed to human beings through their practical day-to-day encounters with others, with things in the world, and through language.You can find my Grand Tour of my Ideas at GrandTourIdeas.com - check it out.

A few of my favorite friends really like my rambles on various topics particularly my socio-philosophy theories so here are the basics of what I describe as our MEST-UP world and what sort of self-perceived identity inhabits it - which begs several questions on the quest for eons of self-discovery. I'm having a bit of fun here but I do cover the fundamental make-up of our imposed constructed reality perceptions and how we can wake up from them. Enjoy!

In 15 minute RAMBLE on about conscious awakening and how we can place ourselves into practice, Mike talks about TWA (Thoughts, Words, Actions) its - the flight we take everyday where some might other pay much attention to what's going inside their head and thereby struggle with self-control and attention deficit. There is another way and its the practice of 'ultra-being' present which Mike explains. Check it out! Also posted at MikeRatner.com enjoy!~
