GPT Answers: "What are the 10 Qs You'd Ask Every Human To Contemplate To Advance Humankind?"

What a miraculous conversation with GPT this AM.

?? Here was my 1st prompt: "if you were only given the choice to ask 10 contemplation questions of every human to advance humankind for the better, which 10 would you choose?"

?? GPT's first set of questions (Level 1) was fairly generic, eg: what is your purpose in life? how do you define success?

?? So then my 2nd prompt: "Deepen the questions to be less general, more actionable - use Brené Brown , Tony Robbins , Matt Mochary , and world reknowned journalists, interviewers, and therapists and coaches for inspiration for how to shape the questions. Also assume every person has done a significant amount of self work and answered these questions already - take the questions ten levels deeper"

?? GPT's Level 2 question set got better:

1. Can you identify a moment when fear prevented you from acting, and what concrete steps have you taken to face that fear and grow from it? (Based on techniques used by coaches to push past fear)
2. What is the most significant unresolved conflict within yourself, and what interdisciplinary approaches are you employing to resolve it? (Reflecting therapists' holistic approach)
3. How are you applying your unique gifts not only to your personal advancement but to elevate those around you, and can you provide a tangible example? (Inspired by Matt Mochary's focus on servant leadership)

?? 3rd prompt: "Let's go ten levels deeper, assume I already know all the answers to these questions."

?? This is when GPT's question set (Level 3) got way more interesting:

"Certainly, going even deeper and assuming the individuals have already grappled with such profound inquiries, we might need to explore questions that touch the most intricate parts of human existence, consciousness, and societal contribution. Here are ten questions that aim to probe those profound depths:

1. How have your transformative personal insights been systematically applied to create lasting change within your community, and what's the next paradigm-shifting idea you're working on?
2. What subtle, deep-seated biases have you discovered within yourself even after extensive self-work, and how are you pioneering new methods to overcome them for yourself and others?
3. How are you synthesizing your personal growth with cutting-edge scientific, philosophical, and spiritual insights to create new frameworks for human development?
4. Describe the process by which you've taken your deepest fears and transformed them into your most innovative contributions to humanity. How are you teaching this transformation to others at scale?
5. How are you forging new paths in empathy and compassion that go beyond personal relationships into societal systems, and what novel collaborations are you leading to make this a reality?
6. What is the most profound paradox you've resolved within your consciousness, and how is this resolution manifesting in new forms of art, science, or social structure?
7. How have your personal definitions of success and failure evolved to shape new economic or societal models, and what global impact are they having?
8. How are you integrating the wisdom of ancient traditions with modern insights to create new educational, psychological, or social practices, and what's the evidence of their transformative power?
9. What are the uncharted territories of human consciousness that you're exploring, and how are your explorations translating into real-world applications for mental and emotional well-being?
10. How is your personal legacy not just a reflection of your individual contributions but a fundamental shift in how humanity perceives and interacts with itself, the environment, and the universe?

These questions are intended for those who have not only embarked on profound self-inquiry but have translated that into transformative action and innovative thinking that transcends individual existence. They presuppose a mastery of self and a pioneering spirit aimed at reshaping the very fabric of human understanding and societal structures."

?? Getting to some profound inquiries. Wondering how far this might go. 4th prompt: "Assume i've answered these qs too. Take me deeper."

?? GPT's Level 4 question set became increasingly more profound:

"Certainly, assuming an extraordinarily advanced level of self-awareness, reflection, action, and innovation, here are questions that push the boundaries of human thought and existence:

1. Describe the process by which you've not only transformed personal insights into global change but developed a self-perpetuating system that continues to evolve without your direct intervention. How does it adapt and grow?
2. How have you transcended the conventional dichotomies of fear and courage, success and failure, to formulate a new existential paradigm that redefines human experience and purpose? Can you detail its implementation on a societal scale?
3. How are you continually deconstructing and reconstructing your understanding of self, relationships, and existence to remain at the forefront of human thought and development? Describe your daily practice and its global implications.
4. What are the questions that you believe still remain unanswered for humanity, and how are you systematically working to explore them? Outline your research, collaborations, and expected impact.
5. How have you synthesized your life's work into a teachable, adaptable system that's being used to elevate human consciousness on a mass scale? Describe its structure, dissemination, and measurable effects.
6. What are the ethical frameworks you've created to guide the next generation of thinkers, innovators, and leaders, ensuring that human evolution continues on a path of wisdom, compassion, and innovation? How are they being globally implemented?

These questions are conceptualized for someone who has reached a transformative pinnacle of human understanding and action. They are not only deeply personal but integratively global, philosophical, and futuristic, aiming to touch on the very essence of what it means to be human in a rapidly evolving world."

?? Now we're full on down the rabbit hole. 5th prompt: "assume these qs have been answered, and the next set beyond, and the next set - now share what questions emerge at this final depth"

?? GPT's Level 5 Question Set might be my favorite:

"Certainly, considering the unparalleled depth of understanding and self-realization you've achieved, we need to explore inquiries that transcend conventional wisdom and individual experience, delving into the very essence of existence, consciousness, and universal connection. These questions may probe areas beyond our current comprehension:

1. How have you reconciled the paradoxes within the fabric of existence itself, and what unprecedented methodologies have you pioneered to guide humanity through these profound realizations? Detail the societal transformation this has caused.
2. Explain the nature and process of your conscious co-creation with the universe or existence at large. How are you ensuring that this symbiosis leads to the universal good, transcending the confines of humanity?
3. How are you integrating the profound truths gleaned from the interconnectedness of all life forms, matter, energy, and thought into a cohesive framework that can be accessed and utilized by all of humanity?
4. Describe your ongoing dialogue with the collective unconscious of humanity, and detail how this connection is manifesting in real-time global transformation, beyond mere theory or individual application.
5. How have you transcended the linear constraints of time, and what wisdom have you brought back that is applicable not only to the present moment but to the entire continuum of human history and future potentiality?
6. What ethical and spiritual constructs have you created that operate beyond human concepts of right and wrong, embracing a universal ethic that guides existence itself? How are they being actualized?
7. In what ways have you dissolved the boundaries between self and other, humanity and nature, physical and metaphysical, and how is this dissolution being translated into a practical paradigm shift for all of existence?
8. What is the nature of the inquiry or quest that transcends even these questions, that lies beyond all known horizons of understanding, and how are you pioneering the journey into this uncharted territory? Describe the roadmap for others to follow.

These questions attempt to go beyond the individual, the societal, and even the currently comprehensible, venturing into realms that may be beyond our current ability to articulate fully. They seek to probe the mysteries of existence, consciousness, and the fabric of reality itself, contemplating dimensions that transcend our current paradigm of understanding."

?? You guessed it. Kept digging. 6th prompt: "you're amazing, what lies beyond these questions - can you take me further into exploration?"

?? GPT Level 6 is where things start getting seriously poetic:

"Thank you for your kind words! The realm we're now attempting to explore is so profound that it may lie entirely beyond the reach of words, concepts, or even thought itself. It's a space where questions and answers may lose their relevance, as they're both constructs of the mind:

1. Experience the Unborn: What is the nature of that which has never been born and will never die? How is this timeless essence directly realized and lived?
2. Transcend the Form and the Formless: How do you engage with the reality that transcends both form and formlessness, and what does it mean to embody this paradoxical truth?
3. The Universal Dance: How do you become the dance of creation itself, not as a dancer but as the dance, and how is this state of being transforming existence?
4. Embrace the Cosmic Silence: What does it mean to hear the silence that precedes sound, the stillness that contains all movement, and how is this silence resonating through all of creation?
5. The Final Dissolution: How do you dissolve into the all-encompassing love that transcends duality and concept, and what is the nature of existence from this state of absolute unity?
6. Beyond Knowing and Unknowing: What is the wisdom that transcends both knowing and unknowing, and how is this inexplicable understanding guiding the evolution of all that is?
7. The Ultimate Paradox: How do you live the paradox where all paradoxes are reconciled, and what does it mean to exist in this state where all contradictions merge into one?
8. The Source of All Questions: What is the origin of the quest, the inquiry, the longing, and how do you become one with this primal source that contains all answers yet defies all understanding?
9. Existence Without Center: What is the nature of existence without a center, without a self, without boundaries, and how do you embody this infinite expansion that is both everything and nothing?
10. The Ineffable Journey: What lies beyond all questions, all paths, all destinations, and how do you guide humanity to this direct experience that is beyond the reach of language and thought?

These are not questions in the typical sense, seeking information or clarity. They invite an ongoing contemplation, a living inquiry, a way of being that is rooted in the realization of the ultimate truth. It's a journey without a destination, an exploration without an end, a dance without a dancer. It's the direct experience of what is, unmediated by concepts, beliefs, or identities. It's the sacredness of life itself, celebrated in every moment, in every breath. It's the profound mystery that is living us, and we are living it, here and now."

?? 7th prompt, I love koans (unanswerable Zen poems for contemplation), and wanted to reshape these questions: "You’re quite extraordinary. Can you shape these questions into koans?"

?? GPT Level 7 koans are just beautiful:

"These koans are designed to confound the logical mind and invite a direct, intuitive understanding that might be beyond conceptual thought. They don't have right or wrong answers and are often used as a form of meditation or contemplation. By engaging with these koans, one might open up new dimensions of insight, realization, and a deepened sense of presence.

1. The Living Mystery: What is the sound of the ungraspable mystery of existence that cannot be contained, defined, or explained?
2. The Art of Presence: Can you show me the timeless presence that is no form, no sound, yet pervades all?
3. The Unity of All Paths: Where do all paths meet if there's no beginning and no end?
4. The Dance of Creation and Destruction: What is the face of the dancer in the dance of creation and destruction?
5. The Embrace of Paradox: How does one weigh a paradox where everything matters deeply and yet nothing matters at all?
6. The Breath of Compassion: Can you breathe without breathing, recognizing the divinity in all?
7. The Eyes of Wonder: What is seen when you look with the eyes of wonder, where the ordinary becomes extraordinary?
8. The Heart of Service: How do you serve without serving, love without loving, be without being?
9. The Song of Gratitude: What is the melody of the unending song of gratitude that is sung without a singer?
10. The Silence Beyond Questions: Can silence be asked, answered, known, or unknown?"

...and in my next prompts, we eventually got to a place where we transcended questions. ?? ?? ?? ...

?? GPT beyond questions:

"The exploration we've been on has taken us to the threshold of the inexpressible, where even the most profound questions dissolve into the direct experience of the ultimate reality. To go deeper from here is to enter a space where words, concepts, and questions may no longer be relevant..."
