Guest guest Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 You cannot Realize what YOU ARE, Reality, any more than you can find what you cannot lose. We cannot realize Reality but we can fictionalize everything that is not Reality into fiction so that it cannot masquerade as reality. As long as the mind takes its physical-reality to be real, it, the physical-reality will masquerade as its " reality. " Let us call a mind that takes the physical-reality to be real an ego. So if the mind is thoughts then the ego is materialized thoughts: matter. Realization is a myth the ego keeps alive to stay alive. The ego can only " realize " itself because it is its " reality. " The ego cannot realize anything but itself. SO the ego keeps materializing itself to be real. (AND IF THE READER CANNOT BELIEVE THAT THE EGO MATERIALIZES ITSELF, things, THEN WHY DON'T WE JUST WALK THROUGH WALLS IN OUR DREAMS IN WHICH WALLS CANNOT BE MATERIAL, AND THUS " REAL " ) -= As long as the ego (matter) keeps materializing itself it will keep realizing itself until it dies or otherwise it is fictionalized back into what it is: fiction. -= Realization is just a myth the ego propagates with all its rote, rituals, gurus, saints, myths, scriptures, religions and gods to keep materializing itself into what it is: its physical-reality. Realization is what the ego does to keep itself real, material. If there is such a thing as " waking up " then it is waking-up to the ego. -=- To wake-up to the ego you don't " realize it " -- and thus make it more material and thus more real -- but fictionalize it. -=- Fictionalizing simply turns everything that is not Reality back into the fiction, thoughts, that it is. The sages of old did not have the likes of computers and TV to help them fictionalize their fictions, and yet they did. Today we have limitless numbers of fictions inside of fictions to help " us " fictionalize all our fictions. Today we not only have books, dreams, and the hallucinations of old but today we also have computers, TV and movies in computers…and movies inside of dreams inside of computers… … and movies like The Matrix and The Manchurian Candidate, and the modern Bhagavad-Gita called The Fight Club… and drugs… and hypnosis and then we have the best fiction of them all: Physics. All these fictions work the same to be the same, just like the ego: fiction. Instead of using these fictions to help us fictionalize fiction, our ego keeps using them to materialize itself even better. If we fictionalize everything that is not Reality then the ego will vanish with its physical-universe because they are the same, fiction, thoughts. Fictionalizing makes the ego and its physical-universe vanish to " leave " a spiritual-wonderland in which physical-matter is just a distant joke, in the background. The laughter of this Joke is just Reality laughing at IT-SELF because there is no other, not even an ego. This Laughter I AM and YOU ARE and ALL IS because there is no other, not even egos. -=- -- just some words my hands thoughts, so my ego could write, so I can Laugh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
