(hope nobody loose the self for a brief period of time, reading this words....means don't want to know what he/she is going through by this meaningless words so one look in the world (mirror) and detect " another " one few possibilities: -one is aware of witness Self (by which one get the opportunity to " see " something) being aware of Self, and so....of Self of both.... it's impossible to know what the other one is going through except maybe that he/she seem to have same awareness....or not -one is aware of oneself (only) and knowing that being in One world with the " other one " ....at this same time....connected and related and...and... there is also an emotional contact between each happening because both share to be in same " situation " ....means, being not aware of Self....and so missing this...... this missing Self awareness let them both " understand " more or less what each one is going through..... -one is aware of oneself without knowing to be in One world with the " other one " ..... (don't know...anymore, what could be this scenario....but if one remind the history and facts of wars as for example....maybe one see how deep is the misunderstanding for each ones.... " going through " ) few thoughts about the subject.... i don't take any responsibility if someone feel to start to believe in " God " ....now (God as the one...and only....who is going through.... " paradise " ) lol Marc > > > > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
