L.E. If that is so, you have very little understanding. So many words, What

is there to talk about, really?

 

'You " ....the sense of self......is composed solely of beliefs.

 

L.E: Do you even know what a belief is? To say the above shows a profound

lack

of awareness about the issue, and again indicates that your views are

derivative and not authentic at least in part.

Sorry, don't intend to be nasty.

 

The whole world is within.

 

L.E: Easy to say, not easy to convince anyone, and there are millions of

christians, muslims and jews that would be sure you are insane to claim such a

thing. MILLIONS! Does it matter that hardly any human being would agree with

you?

That can be said in truth when one is merged with the Infinite Life, but not

from the ordinary world from where you are writing. Being in a dream state,

is that claim part of your dream. And is there any reality inside a dream?

Think it over.

Views are views.

No view is authentic.

That's ok.....this is stuff is very foreign to the self.

Thinking is the mother of confusion.

 

There is nothing beyond the dream.

 

Its all a great mystery.

P: I'm with Toom on this one. Your sense of self is your ego. Your ego

consists of a collection of thoughts. These thoughts consist of a set of beliefs

about who and what you are. These are entirely subjective perceptions.

 

If you were slightly deranged, you might believe yourself to be a platypus.

This would be you subjective sense of self, composed entirely of your beliefs.

there exists an organism that is occupied with these fantasies. Many. At least

from the ordinary point of view. From the atomic point of view, we are all

clouds of mostly neutrons, protons and electrons. And from an infinite point of

view seen from an ordinary point of view, nothing exists but space. Of course

that's all imagination.

soul is formless.....infinite....

therefore....there can only be one soul existing.....

i mean....how could one imagine two infinite souls.....?

 

our soul is one.....and everything what appear as two...or

many......is a " reflection " of this one and only and infinite

soul........

 

" ego " ... " thoughts " ..... " cloud68 " ....are the waves on the one ocean

 

....coming and going

 

soul remain soul.....forever

Marc,

 

I have posted some text about " soul " by Krishnamurti. Please read it

and maybe it is helpful for you to quit writing nonsens about soul.

Reminds me of a comment along these lines I heard once...

that it is all " birdsong " , that all that is going on is

just birdsong.

 

A bunch of brains chirping at each other via birdsong...

is all that is going one.

 

An interesting way to look at it, in my view.

That there is dreaming going on seems pretty clear.

There there is someone/anyone dreaming is not so clear,

though per my point of view it is quite clear that there

is no one dreaming.

Just for fun, Marc, thought I'd ask how many " reflections "

there are :)... [per your point of view, of course].

But Werner, Krishnamurti is only speaking with regard to

" soul " in the context of separation/division, for he defines

soul in the beginning as:

" The soul is a division, born of illusion. "

 

But as Marc is using the term " soul " it is not a *division*.

Surely you don't object to, and regard as nonsense, the mere

use of the four letters s-o-u-l strung together regardless

of how it is defined?

 

Or do I misunderstand Marc's comments? For he says:

" soul is formless.....infinite....

therefore....there can only be one soul existing.....

i mean....how could one imagine two infinite souls.....? "

 

Sounds pretty nondual to me!
