You whet my appetite! I want to hear some thoughts and how that might impact our understanding/reception/practice of the traditions. 'Ok, the lightform Deity above my head is an inter-dimensional, galactic, trans-earth entity. That makes it even more interesting! Or am i being colonized?'.... Also of note, the Dzogchen teachings do have writings about other world systems where the teachings originated!....
so much more to say and think and wonder about all this... those are great questions! with no easy answers. the 'am i being colonized' voice is wriggling in the mix, sometimes eluding expression. (hard to face.) with contact experiences we find a strange melding of psychic and material dimensions, mind and object, self and other. literalist either/or thinking fails to compute.... what is religion? where does it come from? are questions lurking.
Thanks Kennyo. Much of of this can be transposed onto the looming AI revolution as well
