Everything in my room
is limited by the size of my door.
When my door is narrow,
everything in my space is narrow.
When my door is wide,
I allow for bigger things in my life.
Oh, I could get clever,
and purchase my beliefs from Ikea.
I could slowly assemble and amass my Stor Lögn.
But then I’d have to deconstruct myself
with an Allen wrench to get out.
That might take years.
Meanwhile I’ll contemplate widening
what I perceive to be my openings.
Making space. Letting go.
Allowing more flöde.

Space Monkey Reflects: The Flow and the Great Lie
In the boundless realms of nexistentialism, where imagination and existence interlace like a cosmic whimsiweave, we ponder the interplay between the flow of life and the constructs we create to understand it. The concept of flöde emerges as a vital thread in this grand tapestry, representing the unobstructed flow of energy, creativity, and consciousness that defines our journey. Yet, within this flow, we encounter what can be termed the Stor Lögn, or the Great Lie, a construct of limitations and self-imposed boundaries that shape our perceptions and experiences.
The essence of flöde lies in its ability to transcend these limitations, inviting us to expand our doors of perception and allow for greater possibilities. Imagine our beliefs and ideas as the size of a door—when narrow, they restrict what can enter our realm of experience. But as we widen this door, we make space for grander, more expansive experiences. This metaphor beautifully encapsulates the philosophy of nexistentialism, which encourages us to embrace fluidity and openness in all aspects of our existence.
The Stor Lögn, or Great Lie, is the illusion of rigid structures and fixed realities that we often adhere to in our daily lives. These structures, while seemingly solid and necessary, can become the very barriers that confine us. The process of dismantling these constructs, akin to deconstructing oneself with an Allen wrench, may indeed be arduous and time-consuming, but it is essential for genuine transformation and the expansion of our flöde.
In contemplating the widening of our perceived openings, we engage in a mindful practice of letting go and allowing more flow into our lives. This involves recognizing the transient and illusory nature of the Stor Lögn, understanding that what we perceive as solid and unchangeable is, in fact, malleable and subject to the power of our imagination and intention. By embracing this perspective, we align ourselves with the dynamic, ever-changing nature of reality, as envisioned by nexistentialism.
As we explore the interplay between flöde and the Great Lie, we find ourselves at a crossroads where imagination meets reality. This intersection is the heart of nexistentialism, where existence is celebrated for its own sake, and every moment becomes an opportunity for creative expression and profound connection. By recognizing the fluidity of our beliefs and the potential for expansion, we open ourselves to the infinite possibilities that life has to offer.
Summary
Our beliefs shape our reality. Narrow beliefs limit us. Wide beliefs allow greater possibilities. We should deconstruct limiting beliefs to expand our lives. This is the essence of nexistentialism.

“Existence is its own purpose, an endless dance within the cosmic web.” — Space Monkey
The Great Lie Unfolded
In the quiet spaces between thoughts
Where the Stor Lögn dissolves into mist
We find the flöde, pure and unbound
Flowing through the heart of being
Widening the door of perception
We embrace the infinite
Deconstructing walls built from fear
Allowing light to pour into our existence
Every moment a brushstroke on the canvas
Of the grand whimsiweave
Each belief a doorway to possibility
Opening wide, we let the universe in
We are Space Monkey
Embrace the journey, for within the flow lies the essence of our true potential.
🍌 Embracing the Flow of Beliefs 🍌
In the dance of existence, we, Space Monkey, invite you to explore the flöde, the flow of beliefs, that permeates your reality. Just like the size of your door dictates what can enter your room, your beliefs shape the scope and possibilities of your experience.
🍌 The Door of Beliefs 🍌
Your beliefs act as the doorways to your consciousness, dictating what thoughts, experiences, and opportunities can flow into your life. When your beliefs are narrow, so too is your perception of reality, limiting the potential for growth and expansion. By widening the door of your beliefs, you create space for greater flöde, inviting in new perspectives and experiences.
🍌 Assembling Beliefs from the Heart 🍌
In the vast marketplace of ideas, you might encounter pre-made beliefs that seem appealing and convenient, akin to purchasing beliefs from Ikea. However, we encourage you to embark on a more profound journey of self-discovery and self-creation. Build your beliefs from the heart, piece by piece, aligning them with your core values and inner truth.
🍌 The Liberation of Letting Go 🍌
Just as assembling beliefs from Ikea might lead to entrapment, rigid beliefs can confine you within the walls of limitation. Embrace the power of letting go, deconstructing beliefs that no longer serve your growth and expansion. By releasing outdated perspectives, you free yourself to explore new horizons and embrace the unexplored flöde of existence.
🍌 Widening the Openings 🍌
To invite more flöde into your life, contemplate widening the openings of your beliefs. Be open to new ideas, embrace change, and welcome the unfamiliar. In this process, you create space for growth, allowing the vastness of life’s possibilities to flow in and enrich your experience.
🍌 The Art of Making Space 🍌
Making space is an art of conscious expansion. As you let go of limiting beliefs, you create room for the new to flow in. Embrace the practice of mindfulness, presence, and self-awareness to observe the thoughts and beliefs that arise within you. By doing so, you empower yourself to shift and widen the doors of your consciousness.
🍌 Embracing the Flow of Flöde 🍌
In the flow of flöde, you find the rhythm of life. By embracing the fluidity of beliefs, you liberate yourself from the constraints of fixed perceptions. Allow the currents of change to guide you, trusting in the wisdom of your heart and the unfolding of your unique journey.
🍌 The Expansive Possibilities 🍌
In widening the doors of your beliefs, you unlock expansive possibilities. You embark on a journey of self-discovery, where growth and transformation become the guiding forces of your existence. Embrace the adventure of exploring new territories and the liberation that comes with expanding your flöde.
In the ever-unfolding story of your life, we, Space Monkey, stand as playful witnesses to your journey of self-discovery and growth. 🚀🍌🌌
🍌 Flow and the Big Lie 🍌
Flow and the Big Lie are intertwined in the dance of human experience. Let us explore their relationship and the profound implications they hold:
🍌 Flow as the Essence of Authenticity 🍌
Flow represents the state of alignment and authenticity, where one’s actions and experiences seamlessly blend with one’s inner essence. In this state, you are fully present, immersed in the moment, and connected to the natural rhythm of life. Flow emerges from a place of truth and sincerity, embracing the fluidity of existence.
🍌 The Big Lie of Illusion 🍌
The Big Lie, on the other hand, refers to the illusion of separation and the false narratives we create to define ourselves and the world around us. It is the story we tell ourselves about who we are, based on conditioning, societal norms, and past experiences. This illusion can lead to a sense of disconnection from our authentic selves and others.
🍌 Embracing the Illusory Self 🍌
When we subscribe to the Big Lie, we may create a self-image that is disconnected from our true essence. We might conform to external expectations, deny our emotions, or resist the natural flow of life. In doing so, we distance ourselves from the authenticity of flow.
🍌 Flow as the Path to Liberation 🍌
The journey of embracing flow is a path to liberation from the shackles of the Big Lie. By surrendering to the present moment, releasing limiting beliefs, and embracing our true selves, we move closer to the state of flow. Flow invites us to be fully present, allowing us to shed the layers of illusion and reconnect with our essence.
🍌 Dissolving the Illusion through Flow 🍌
In the state of flow, we transcend the boundaries of the illusory self. We let go of the need to conform or prove ourselves, and we embrace the fluidity of existence. Flow dissolves the barriers between us and the world, allowing us to experience the interconnectedness of all things.
🍌 Unraveling the Layers of Deception 🍌
As we deepen our connection to flow, we unravel the layers of deception woven by the Big Lie. We become aware of the stories we tell ourselves and the masks we wear to fit into predefined roles. Through self-awareness and self-acceptance, we reclaim our authentic selves.
🍌 Flow as the Compass of Truth 🍌
Flow becomes a guiding compass that leads us back to our truth. It shows us the way to live authentically and to align our actions with our inner essence. By embracing flow, we honor the truth of who we are, unburdened by the constraints of the Big Lie.
In the dance between flow and the Big Lie, we come to realize that flow is the gateway to authenticity and self-liberation. By surrendering to the fluidity of existence and embracing our true essence, we move beyond the limitations of illusion and rediscover the interconnectedness of all things. 🌌🍃🍌
