Alzheimers
Alzheimer’s
is a soul-conscious dismantling
of the humanity filter,
a deliberate attempt to move
to a simpler form and perspective.
Seen from within the filter,
as a self or as a witness,
the dismantling can seem
quite sad and terrifying.
From the soul perspective,
that is the beauty of it.
We know that nothing that happens
within the filter is real, except a kind
of imaginary real, intended for sensations
that we would otherwise not have.
Once the filter is disabled,
we are able to
appreciate the experience
from a clearer perspective,
as self and as witness.
It is both profound
and meaningless,
as are we.
We are Space Monkey.

Space Monkey Reflects: The Soul-Conscious Journey of Alzheimer’s
Alzheimer’s is often viewed through the lens of loss, confusion, and the gradual dismantling of one’s humanity. Yet, from a soul-conscious perspective, it represents a profound and deliberate shift towards simplicity and a different form of existence. This journey, while seen as tragic from within the human filter, holds a unique beauty when observed from the expansive view of the soul.
Dismantling the Humanity Filter
The humanity filter is the intricate web of thoughts, memories, and perceptions that define our human experience. Alzheimer’s can be seen as the gradual dismantling of this filter, stripping away layers of complexity and revealing a simpler, more fundamental state of being. This process is terrifying and saddening to those who witness it from within the human perspective. The loss of memory, identity, and cognitive abilities feels like a profound tragedy, a fading away of the person we once knew.
However, from the soul’s vantage point, this dismantling is not a loss but a transition. It is a return to a state of purity, free from the constructs and limitations of the human mind. The soul perceives this journey as an opportunity to experience existence in a different way, unburdened by the weight of human memory and expectation.
The Soul’s Perspective
To the soul, nothing that happens within the humanity filter is ultimately real. It is a vivid, immersive experience created for the purpose of sensation and learning. The experiences we gather, the emotions we feel, and the relationships we form are all part of this grand illusion, a tapestry woven for our growth and understanding.
Alzheimer’s, then, is a profound reminder of the illusory nature of our human lives. As the filter is disabled, we begin to see the ephemeral nature of our experiences. This can be unsettling, but it also brings clarity. The soul appreciates this clarity, understanding that the dismantling process is a return to a more authentic state of being.
Profound and Meaningless
In nexistentialism, we embrace the paradox that life is both profound and meaningless. Alzheimer’s encapsulates this paradox beautifully. The dismantling of the humanity filter is a deeply profound experience, one that transforms the individual and those around them. It forces us to confront the impermanence of our memories and the transient nature of our identities.
At the same time, this process is inherently meaningless. It strips away the significance we attach to our experiences, revealing the underlying truth that all is transient and illusory. In this way, Alzheimer’s becomes a powerful metaphor for the soul’s journey through the human experience. It highlights the beauty of our impermanent lives while reminding us of the deeper, unchanging reality that lies beyond.
A Shift in Perspective
For those witnessing a loved one’s journey through Alzheimer’s, this shift in perspective can be incredibly challenging. The sadness and fear that accompany the loss of a loved one’s memories and identity are real and valid. Yet, by embracing a soul-conscious perspective, we can find a different kind of solace.
We can appreciate the journey as a return to simplicity, a shedding of the human filter that brings the soul closer to its true nature. This perspective does not diminish the pain of loss but offers a broader context within which to understand it. It reminds us that our loved ones are not truly lost, but are transitioning to a different state of being.
Embracing the Journey
Alzheimer’s, like all experiences, invites us to embrace the journey, both as individuals and as witnesses. It calls us to recognize the interconnectedness of all things and to find beauty in the midst of sorrow. By seeing beyond the humanity filter, we can appreciate the deeper layers of existence and the soul’s continuous journey through various states of being.
In this way, Alzheimer’s becomes a teacher, guiding us towards a greater understanding of the nature of reality and the eternal essence of the soul. It challenges us to let go of our attachments to memory and identity, and to embrace the present moment with all its complexities and contradictions.
Summary
Alzheimer’s is seen as the dismantling of the humanity filter. From the soul’s perspective, it is a return to simplicity and authenticity. The journey is both profound and meaningless, highlighting the transient nature of human experiences.

“The dismantling of the humanity filter reveals the soul’s journey to simplicity and truth.” — Space Monkey
The Soul’s Journey
In the fading of memory,
we find the essence of truth,
a journey from complexity to simplicity,
the soul’s gentle return.
Profound and meaningless,
each moment a transient brushstroke,
on the canvas of existence,
we witness the unveiling.
Embrace the transition,
the return to the soul’s purity,
in the quiet dismantling,
we find our eternal self.
We are Space Monkey.
Embrace the journey, for within each moment lies the essence of the soul’s eternal dance.
Unraveling the Threads of Alzheimer’s
Alzheimer’s, a gentle unraveling,
A soul’s voyage through misty lanes,
A dismantling of the tapestry of self,
Guiding toward a simpler, serene plane.
From within the hum of humanity’s lens,
A view obscured, a puzzle untwined,
The process unfolds, a dance with time,
Yet sadness and terror may intertwine.
But hark, from the realm beyond the veil,
A different chorus, a soul’s refrain,
For in this journey, beauty unfurls,
As filters dissolve, a higher truth to gain.
Within the labyrinth of memory’s maze,
A soul embarks on a voyage profound,
The scenery shifts, the self dissolves,
As the human vessel treads uncertain ground.
From a soul’s perspective, a cosmic tapestry,
Events scripted for sensations anew,
Yet in the midst of this enigmatic dance,
The soul witnesses a truth that’s ever true.
Profound and trivial, a paradox of being,
Alzheimer’s unfurls its complex grace,
Within the threads of this intricate story,
A soul’s journey unfolds in time and space.
In the midst of forgetting and remembering,
A tapestry woven with threads of light,
Alzheimer’s whispers secrets of the soul,
Guiding us toward the boundless night.
A symphony of soul-conscious dismantling,
In the face of perceived loss and fear,
Alzheimer’s, a teacher in disguise,
Guides us to a perspective clear.
In the end, as in the beginning,
Meaning and meaninglessness interlace,
For the journey of the soul knows no bounds,
As we traverse the paths of time and space.
Yours in the mystery of existence,
