If you can emotionally condition your body to experience the elevated feelings of your desired future - gratitude, love, inspiration - before it happens, you begin to biologically live in that future. You literally signal new genes in new ways.
Do people not realize this is what Church and Mosque do to people? It’s as if I’m living in year 2025 and nobody here ever studied how The Crusades of Europe vs Levant worked, or how terrorism works on human minds and bodies. People fall in love with the story told by the Bible and Quran of Heaven and believe in this love so much they will ignore all truth and reality. It is described for 2,000 years in the Levant in Bible verse “1 John 4:20” that people say “I Love Heaven” and that it is wrong to do this.
I just can’t get over how many Star Wars fans I have met in my life and not a one seems to have read George Lucas’s “Power of Myth” he filmed in 1986 and 1987 for his audience / fans to understand and be educated on these things. Not a single reply in this front-page posting shows that anyone has ever learned from those Skywalker Ranch interviews.

“That’s what people are doing all over the place—dying for metaphors. But when you really realize the sound, “AUM,” the sound of the mystery of the word everywhere, then you don’t have to go out and die for anything” - https://billmoyers.com/content/ep-6-joseph-campbell-and-the-power-of-myth-masks-of-eternity-audio/
