"We are not here to win debates.
We are here to wake each other up without sending each other back to sleep."
Let me ask you this:
What does "waker each other up" even mean?
Quote:
"... 'All I know is we ALL need to be on the same page if we are to break out? No one left behind.'
That’s the heart of it, isn’t it?
This isn’t about being right.
It’s about becoming whole.
Together.
Through disagreement, paradox, and contradiction—because truth isn’t tidy, and healing never happens in a vacuum."
Ok, let me disagree: Truth is very tidy.
It's the ISBEs having a problem with simple truths that are making it chaotic.
Like the simple truth: All ISBEs have the exact same rights.
No, can't be. It must be more complicated than that.
It's not complicated.
So, let me clarify: I'm here to win debates. Because the purpose of a debate is to get closer to the truth. Winning a debate therefore means that we know more truth than we knew before.
The problem ISBEs are making of it: Everybody should win. Nobody should feel bad.
Then let me ask you this:
Why are you feeling bad if you lose a debate?
Who is left behind by losing a debate?
Who is left behind by not being right?
Manuel, I appreciate your thoughtful challenge. Truly.
You asked, “What does ‘wake each other up’ even mean?”
It’s a good question. Let me offer this:
Waking up isn’t about arriving at the same opinion.
It’s about remembering the deeper reality behind all opinions.
Awakening isn’t linear. It’s not a quiz with one correct answer.
It’s relational, lived, felt. It happens when insight lands, not just when it's said.
Debates test logic.
Awakening tests the self.
I don’t reject debate—it has a place. But I don’t live there.
Because truth isn’t always sharpened by friction.
Sometimes it softens us into wholeness through paradox.
Yes, all ISBEs have equal rights.
And yes, not all ISBEs are in equal conditions to access them.
If the goal is only to win, we risk reinforcing the very separation that veils the truth we seek.
As for “who is left behind”—
The one who walks away believing their intellect proved superiority, but their heart remained untouched.
This is not about who’s right.
This is about who’s remembering.
And I remember this:
The only truth that wakes is the one that opens—not closes.
In the end, Manuel, if your debate brings us closer to that?
Then we both win something far deeper than a point.
With respect,
