E.g., "The Cabal process cannot be understood by stopping it. Understanding must move with the flow of the Cabal process, must join it and flow with it.”
("Prick your finger and sign on the line. Then we'll show you everything!")
BTW, that quote is "The First Law of Mentat", and the Mentats were a mandarin class of political advisors, essentially deep-state viziers like Jaffar in the Aladdin franchise (they could be good, or bad, or compromised).
No it means that the understanding of a process has to change to be able to keep understanding this process, like navigating a river. And by the way, did you read the cycle of Dune or just the first book ? Otherwise you are missing out.
Please recommend the books to read and what order to read them.
I think I have read the first book and then it seemed other books in the series were written by someone else?
Thanks
The original cycle of Dune down below. The other books have been written by his son, Brian Herbert. They are enjoyable but are far from the depth and the scale of the original serie. They are useful to expand the lore but don't expect too much from them. Personally I think the best is God emperor of Dune, but all of them are mind blowing.
Dune (1965)
Dune Messiah (1969)
Children of Dune (1976)
God Emperor of Dune (1981)
Heretics of Dune (1984)
Chapterhouse: Dune (1985)
Super Spicy Dune Quotes, A Book Written By Frank Herbert
.
[We] must not let our passion interfere with our reason. That is not good. That is bad .... (Fear is the mindkiller).
Current events:
A popular man arouses the jealousy of the powerful.
A human would remain in the trap, endure the pain, feigning death that he might kill the trapper and remove a threat to his kind.
Once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them.
Without change something sleeps inside us, and seldom awakens. The sleeper must awaken.
We must totally destroy all spice production on Arrakis. The Guild and the entire Universe depends on spice. He who can destroy a thing, controls a thing.
In shield fighting, one moves fast on defense, slow on attack. Attack has the sole purpose of tricking the opponent into a misstep, setting him up for the attack sinister. The shield turns the fast blow, admits the slow kindjal!
The slow blade penetrates the shield.
Remember: Walk without rhythm and we won’t attract the worm". It will go to the thumper.
A world is supported by four things … the learning of the wise, the justice of the great, the prayers of the righteous and the valor of the brave. But all of these are as nothing … without a ruler who knows the art of ruling.
(... not to mention 'the art of the deal' :)
Respect for the truth is the basis for all morality. Something cannot emerge from nothing.
Dune is my favorite book ever. Its philosophy is based on sufism and zen. This is a mix between the spiritual virility of Islam and the the absolute fluidity of the mind described in the Zen philosophy. The mix is very relevant to us. Be faithful, brave and righteous but don't close your mind and be as open as possible, to be able to consider any possibility with a depassionate and clear mind.
Everything you're speaking of here is exactly the shared intuitive insight that's been emerging recently among me/others. A word or 'rayma' of pure synchronicity + flow. 'Watch the water'.
And even more intriguing, such principles are not at heart in contradiction with any faiths or understandings. But rather they are foundationally inherent in both humans and the greater creation itself. A 'both/and, multidimensional, WWG1WGA' kinda universe :)
[Just as I typed that last word - the singer of a song playing in the b/g sang the word 'universe'. Wow, the individual strings of our collective 'guitar' must really be resonating in tune lately, we seem to be generating lots of 'overtones'!]
Or as someone once described it.... we humans are truly 'fearsomely/awesomely made'', and 'all things are ours...' And that's what ds hopes we the people will never realize and actualize.
Like it!
85% of aphorisms are crap, including that one.
E.g., "The Cabal process cannot be understood by stopping it. Understanding must move with the flow of the Cabal process, must join it and flow with it.”
("Prick your finger and sign on the line. Then we'll show you everything!")

There seem to be very resonant parallels w/ Q/Anons/Plan, Trump, Sun Tzu, cabal, etc:

Complete quote
I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
