Guest guest Posted December 19, 2001 Report Share Posted December 19, 2001 Yes, quite so. And that first belief system is a contradiction that only can " happen " by ignoring its contradiction. " I Am " requires that I can retain myself, retaining myself, retaining myself (or observer myself observing myself) ad infinitum. It's on ongoing loop of impossibility. It seems solid only when ignoring the contradiction. It " happens " because it must -- there must be ignorance, so there can be belief, so there can be ignorance, etc. ... Yet -- it isn't ... It isn't " really happening " because it is self-contradictory in the " attempt to happen. " What never has really happened, needn't be cured or fixed. As someone once said, " I offer an imaginary cure for an imaginary disease. " There are no belief systems to get rid of. And that's not something to believe in, simply *knowing as is* ... -- Dan <elizabeth_wells2001> wrote: > > The First Belief System > upon which all the rest are built-up upon, > like a house of cards...... > > > " I Am.
