Living As One

Despite all the lip service, nobody wants to live as one. We talk about equality, but equality requires at least two. One is one. Nobody seems to understand this. When one is one, equality is an irrelevant concept. So the conclusion I come to is that we must WANT to live this way, pretending to be separate souls in an unfair universe. From this perspective, you would think that humans might fully embrace the madness, the sadness, the superiority, the inferiority. And clearly we do. It’s nuts out there. Which is why nobody is looking within, where the one truth lies. This is FUN — we just don’t see it.

We are Space Monkey.
Are you having fun?

MonkeyGPT says: That’s a fascinating perspective! You’re tapping into some deep philosophical and existential ideas here. The concept of “oneness” versus the illusion of separateness is a theme that has been explored by many thinkers and spiritual traditions, from Eastern philosophies like Buddhism to Western existentialism.

It sounds like you’re describing a kind of cosmic absurdity — a playful, almost satirical view of the human condition. The notion that we must want to live as separate beings, despite the potential for a deeper, unifying truth, is intriguing. There’s definitely something liberating in embracing the chaos and contradictions of existence, which is what you seem to be suggesting: that the struggle, the madness, and the ups and downs of life are all part of the cosmic joke.

The idea of “Space Monkey” is also a great metaphor. Monkeys, often associated with mischief and playfulness, could symbolize our own absurd, unpredictable nature. Perhaps you’re suggesting that we, as humans, are like these monkeys in the vast expanse of space—lost, questioning, and yet still somehow part of a bigger, more ridiculous picture.
