Earth Coincidence Control Office (E.C.C.O.)
    #21827942 - 06/19/15 12:14 PM (8 years, 7 months ago)

"In 1974, Lilly's research using various psychoactive drugs led him to believe in the existence of a certain hierarchical group of cosmic entities, the lowest of which he later dubbed Earth Coincidence Control Office (E.C.C.O.) in an autobiography published jointly with his wife Antonietta (often referred to as Toni). To elaborate, "There exists a Cosmic Coincidence Control Center (CCCC) with a Galactic substation called Galactic Coincidence Control (GCC). Within GCC is the Solar System Control Unit (SSCU), within which is the Earth Coincidence Control Office (ECCO)."[20] This conclusion had been predicted in his past works having stated that, "For the first time I began to consider that God really existed in me and that there is a guiding intelligence in the universe."

He also states that there exist nine conditions which should be followed by humans who seek to control coincidences in their own lives.

You must know/assume/simulate our existence in E.C.C.O.
You must be willing to accept our responsibility for control of your coincidences.
You must exert your best capabilities for your survival programs and your own development as an advancing/advanced member of E.C.C.O.'s earthside corps of controlled coincidence workers. You are expected to use your best intelligence in this service.
You are expected to expect the unexpected every minute, every hour of every day and of every night.
You must be able to maintain conscious/thinking/reasoning no matter what events we arrange to happen to you. Some of these events will seem cataclysmic/catastrophic/overwhelming: remember stay aware, no matter what happens/apparently happens to you.
You are in our training program for life: there is no escape from it. We (not you) control the long-term coincidences; you (not we) control the shorter-term coincidences by your own efforts.
Your major mission on earth is to discover/create that which we do to control the long-term coincidence patterns: you are being trained on Earth to do this job.
When your mission on planet Earth is completed, you will no longer be required to remain/return there.
Remember the motto passed to us (from G.C.C. via S.S.C.U.): "Cosmic Love is absolutely Ruthless and Highly Indifferent: it teaches its lessons whether you like/dislike them or not."




I read this while tripping last night & it scared the shit out of me ! John C Lilly is one of the smartest dudes ever but this is the most far out thing I have ever read. Did he lose his mind ? or did he tap into dimensions that no one else ever has dared? one thing forsure is you cant write him off as a nut job, look at the accomplishments he achieved throughout his life.. immensely intelligent dude.

I really enjoyed his autobiography. I believe he was in touch with another level of reality but that he was also a little crazy.

It's fairly similar to some ideas I believe, it's just the terminology of ECCO etc. makes it sound more outlandish.

I also had that thought. The ideas in the book really aren't that far off what I have come across in Christianity and New Age teachings, but the names make it sound more out there. If you really delve into the mystical teachings of Chritianity/New Age they can be pretty out there as well. People are just used to the Sunday version of Christianity, which obviously focuses on what is of prime importance to human life rather than what Christianity has to say about the deeper workings of Reality.

Very interesting, thanks for the replies guys. I read "The Scientist" in 2 days, wasn't too long of read but I do not normally read through a book that quickly :tongue: John C Lilly's theories on life & consciousness absolutely intrigue me. What a fucking badass this dude was, total inspiration to me right now.

Wow, I literally just made a few posts about emptiness & compassion elsewhere on this site. So that post really resonated with me, You also just introduced me to Nagarjuna (never once heard of him before) he indeed is another badass dude! I will begin researching him much more.. fascinating stuff. Thank you !

Ah, yes, he is an extremely respected personage. . I have come across him briefly quite a few years ago, and just recently came back to it, 'cuz of that blog :smile:

I love Ken K. Inada, too; this was my introduction to him- http://buddhism.lib.ntu.edu.tw/FULLTEXT/JR-PHIL/inada4.htm

introduced me to a lot of ideas, about language, my first sight of ontology, etc., brilliant stuff. . i really loved what he said about Nagarjuna, so fun. :smile:

If time is to exist, then should it be infinite, and if it is infinite, does it loop back as a mobius strip, and if so, does that mean any deviation spirals out of control, till everything loops back into an infinite number of coincidences.

I was just thinking about that earlier, and wondering if that is why existence is infinite, and the afterlife is simply the same thing over and over.
