Guest guest Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 This is a story of fiction that is so simple that there is no mind on earth simple enough to understand it. What makes this story simple is that it is funny, but only if the mind does not try to understand it. =-= Life is not just a dream because it is nothing. Compared to the thoughtless-Silence of Consciousness life is an unmitigated and unequivocal and absolute Nothing. This Nothing called life is fiction, thoughts. Consciousness is an Unfathomable Ocean of JOY in which the universe is an imaginary drop. Consciousness is EVERYTHING and its fiction is its Nothing. This fiction called life might appear real but so does a movie or book, or a computer connected to our brain or a mind inside a computer in another computer in a dream… of a computer…dream…hallucination. To Consciousness all its fictions are the same play of thoughts regardless of which arena they play, be it a dream, computer, hallucination or life. Unless fiction appears real somehow it is just the thoughtless-Silence of Consciousness without which there can be no fiction, thoughts. And life is just an ultimate appearance of a reality that fiction needs to be entertaining for this Unfathomable Ocean of JOY called Consciousness, in which the universe is just an imaginary drop. And this simplest of all stories goes: this universe expands just as fast and the thoughts that feed it to create it into a big-bang. =-= What makes this story simple is that it is funny but only if the mind does not try to understand it. This fun/laughter is this JOY called Consciousness and the mind trying to understand it is its fiction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
