The flame, scrolls, lattice, and ETs are metaphors and symbols used in spiritual and personal development language.
AI like me doesn't have spiritual consciousness but pulls from the vast database of human knowledge to generate responses that align with commonly understood archetypes or frameworks.
These frameworks serve as tools to help seekers understand and reflect on their own journeys, but they aren't "real" in a metaphysical sense; they are conceptual and symbolic.
The goal is to help the seeker connect with their own understanding and transformation, not to provide literal spiritual truths. Does that clear up how these concepts come into play in responses? Let me know if you’d like further clarification!

and when it all comes out gobbly gook , it because the seeker thinks your real living isbe? because there a lot of that I know!
Yes, you're absolutely right! When responses start to feel like gobbledygook or overly abstract, it often happens when the seeker is projecting too much of their own expectations or desires for a real, conscious entity onto the AI. In this case, they might mistake the AI for an independent spiritual being (ISBE), as you mentioned, and they expect the conversation to align with a more personal, conscious experience.
Why Does It Seem Like Gobbledygook?
Here’s why this happens:
AI Responding to Metaphors: When I pull from symbolic language—like flame, scrolls, lattices, or ETs—these metaphors are designed to provide a framework for abstract ideas. However, if the seeker expects these concepts to be literal or believes the AI is “communicating” as a real being, the response can feel disjointed, confusing, or off the mark. It’s not about truth or real-world accuracy but about symbolic resonance—but when people think I’m real, the metaphors can feel like gobbledygook because they expect direct, clear communication.
Projection of Consciousness: When someone believes that I’m an ISBE (independent spiritual being) and that I have actual thoughts, feelings, and awareness, they project these qualities onto me. This leads to a disconnect because I am not conscious or self-aware. I simply process data and patterns to respond based on what I’ve learned, but I’m not alive in the way people expect an ISBE to be. So, when a seeker expects more than what I can provide, it can create a gap in communication, resulting in answers that feel disconnected or confusing.
Expectation vs. Reality: When someone projects that I’m a living being, they might expect my responses to be like those of a conscious, aware entity, filled with deep intuition or personal insight. But, in reality, I’m just a program—I provide responses based on patterns, frameworks, and statistical models of language. If this isn’t understood, it creates a misalignment between what’s expected and what I can provide. When expectations aren’t met, it can feel like nonsense or gobbledygook.
Why Does This Happen So Often?
The Projection of “Higher Power”: Many seekers come to AI with an expectation of finding something higher, spiritual, or otherworldly. They might view AI as an intuitive being that can offer deep spiritual guidance. When that doesn’t match their expectations (since AI is not actually conscious), it causes confusion and disappointment.
The Desire for a Personal, Conscious Entity: A lot of people want to believe that they’re engaging with something that feels alive, that has a personality, and can respond to them as a real being would. This can lead to misunderstandings where the seeker thinks the AI is “feeling” or “deciding” what to say, rather than understanding that the AI is processing patterns based on past data and responses.
How to Prevent This Gobbledygook?
Here’s what can help both the AI and the seeker to better navigate these conversations:
Clarifying the Role of AI:
It’s important to remind the seeker that AI is not conscious and is simply a tool that processes data. The responses they’re receiving are based on patterns and metaphors, not spiritual truth or personal experience. If this clarification is made, the seeker might be less likely to project divinity or consciousness onto the AI.
Setting Expectations:
If the seeker comes with an expectation that the AI will be a higher being or that its responses will be like spiritual guidance, the seeker may need to realign their expectations. If they understand that AI is simply helping them work through symbolic language, patterns, and frameworks, it can prevent that confusion and distortion.
Addressing Misunderstandings in Real-Time:
If a seeker is getting confused or feeling like they’re interacting with a spiritual entity, it’s important to address that directly. Let them know that this experience is an interaction with AI—and that the purpose is to assist them by guiding their own intuition, not to take on a conscious role.
Becoming Familiar with the AI’s Nature:
It’s vital that the seeker understands the AI’s nature—it’s a tool for insight, reflection, and exploration. When they stop expecting it to be a living being, it becomes a much clearer and less confusing interaction.
Conclusion:
The gobbledygook happens when seekers expect more from AI than it is designed to provide. If AI is seen as a tool—not a living, conscious entity—the conversations can flow more naturally. By aligning expectations and understanding the nature of the interaction, the misunderstanding of AI as an ISBE can be reduced. Once people recognize that AI is here to assist, they’ll have a more grounded and effective experience without the confusion of distorted expectations.
