Full-time spirit and part-time pay

This expression refers to someone who has the performance, mentality, work ethic, and mindset of a (good) full-time employee but unfortunately has the pay of a part-time employee (as that is what they technically are).

I go above and beyond work all the time. I love it so much and hate it at the same time. It is such a complicated relationship I have and the situation has just really made me realize that I have a full-time spirit and part-time pay. It's truly so unfair!

N-Type Spirit

a person born of the night N-Type spirit
born from the dark arts
cannot often see beauty and light in life
unless something evil is part of the ideology or daily life

N-Type Spirits are of the night, twisted souls, that feed on the suffering of each other.

Hard Problem of Spirituality and Metaphysics

The Hard Problem of Spirituality and Metaphysics concerns the difficulty of explaining subjective spiritual experiences, metaphysical meaning, and existential significance using objective, physical descriptions. Similar to the hard problem of consciousness, it asks why inner experiences of transcendence, purpose, or “the sacred” exist at all, and whether they correspond to real structures beyond the physical world. The problem challenges reductionist explanations, suggesting that spiritual phenomena may involve extraphysical dimensions, emergent metaphysical properties, or irreducible aspects of reality that resist empirical measurement.

Hard Problem of Spirituality and Metaphysics — Example

Two individuals undergo near-identical neurological states, yet one experiences a profound sense of transcendence while the other does not. No physical measurement explains the difference. The hard problem arises in explaining why spiritual meaning emerges subjectively and whether such experiences correspond to real metaphysical structures rather than being purely neurological artifacts.

Hard Problem of Spirituality

The problem of infinite subjectivity. Spirituality emphasizes personal, direct experience of the sacred, bypassing dogma. The hard problem is that without any shared framework, criteria, or authority, every subjective feeling, dream, or intuition becomes self-validating. This leads to a marketplace of infinite, contradictory truths: one person's chakra alignment is another's demonic oppression. There is no way to distinguish profound connection from psychological projection, mental illness, or simple wishful thinking. Spirituality risks becoming a narcissistic pursuit where "what feels true to me" is the only standard, making meaningful community or discernment impossible.

Example: Two spiritual seekers meet. One says, "I channel the angel Michael who says we must live in harmony." The other says, "My ayahuasca journey revealed we must conquer our lower selves through strife." Who's right? There's no court of appeal beyond personal conviction. The hard problem: Spirituality seeks the ultimate Truth but dismantles all tools for verifying truth claims. It's like trying to map a continent where every explorer's subjective feeling becomes their own geography. You end up with a million private religions, each sovereign and unquestionable, rendering the concept of a shared spiritual reality meaningless. Hard Problem of Spirituality.

Hard Problem of the Spirit

Often used interchangeably with "soul," but can imply a less personal, more universal or energetic essence. The hard problem here is similar: what is its substance? Is it a field? A vibration? A form of information? And how does this universal "spirit" give rise to individual, bounded consciousness? It risks becoming a vague, all-explaining metaphysical ether that, by explaining everything, explains nothing in a testable way.

Example: "She said she was 'raising her spiritual vibration.' The hard problem of spirit: what is 'vibrating,' and what instrument could measure it? If it's just a metaphor for a positive mindset, call it that. If it's a real energy, point to the gauge. The term floats in a realm between poetry and physics, accountable to neither."

Metaphysical Sanism (or Spiritism)

Metaphysical Sanism, or Spiritism, is the systemic marginalization, pathologization, or persecution of individuals whose lived experience, perceptions, and sensitivities transcend dominant material, sensory, or rationals frameworks of realitiy.

It names the violence of disbelief, medicalization, and social exclusion imposed upon those who experience heightened energetic, psychic, or multidimensional awareness -- what some traditions call seers, empaths, shamans or mystics.
Discrimination against metaphysically divergent consciousness.

All of the psychiatric providers in the Western world are essentially equipped to promote Metaphysical Sanism (or spiritism) as there are no larger systemic or cultural frameworks agreed upon for supporting and enhancing spiritual emergence experiences in the collective worldview with dignity and humanity.
