Guest guest Posted March 13, 2005 Report Share Posted March 13, 2005 In your universe you are all alone. In your universe only you are aware. What you see as matter (trees, stones, people, buildings, cars, animals, planets, stars...) is not aware. All you see as matter is your past. When you look at the sun, it is the past you see (about 8 minutes into the past). When you look at another person, it is the past you see (about a fraction of a second into the past). Both the person and the sun is in your past, they are already 'dead'. You are the only 'thing' alive in your universe. You are all alone, or all-one. Solid matter is only the past. There are no solid separate particles like tiny billiard balls in the world. Your brain is not solid. Your brain is not made out of solid particles. There are no solid particles. Your body is not made out of separate billiard balls called atoms. Your brain and the rest of your body is - like other people and the sun - the past. Only you are alive in your universe. Your future is generated only in your consciousness. Your consciousness is zero seconds away from life. The sun is about 8 minutes away from life. Other people are a fraction of a second away from life. Only awareness is alive. Physical matter is the past. People, plants and animals (including your own body) in the form of physical matter is the past. The past is not alive. What was it Nisargadatta said? Have you understood anything yet? /AL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
