Stir Crazy?

 

Stir crazy after all these years?

 

(That's from Paul Simon.)

Yup, that's it... " That's right, we bad, we bad " ... Richard Pryor. Of course,

Michael Jackson also did his part in helping to make badness, good ;-).

Hi Geo -

 

Yes, this human dream is reflected as us, as a human.

 

And who knows of an ant dream? Or the dream of an electric wave riding through

space?

 

And none of it divided, all through awareness, through nothing.

 

You can't help wondering about the human world, because that feeling of

wondering is what arose for you nonvolitionally this moment in this dream

sequence.

 

Just as I can't help but type this response, which arises here, at this moment

in this dream sequence.

 

... and we type back and forth like this without division of dreams, giving

name and form to an experience, calling it " human. "

 

What an ant calls an ant dream and communicates to other ants, can only be

guessed. ;-)

 

This is just what is arising here, now, in the moment of this dream sequence.

 

And it could be violence, hunger, could be anything arising at any moment -- and

everything is arising at all possible moments.

 

So, however it unfolds, it unfolds.

 

Moments a million years in the future are included in this moment without

division.

 

Yet, seemingly experienced as a sequence of events, including thoughts about the

events ...

 

Never really commented upon, in spite of these seeming comments arising and

going back and forth.

Ah Dan, now I see, I-sense for you meant what I call the sense of I. And so in a

similar way I suppose with world-sense you meant sense of the world.

 

So here we met, fine. Thanks for clarification.

Probably, there is nowhere for this communication to proceed, and that's simply

how it is.

The ant and electric wave are in 'our' dream.

 

So indeed... who knows? ;-).

That's a very simple concept, Tim, which you often are using but this concept is

wrong because there is no me and there is no you.

 

Consciousness is all there is.

 

'You' and 'me' are introduced by the categorizing thought. And thus they get

alloted and used for discrimination within this world. All these categories have

their value within comuninication and orientation in this world.

 

Tell your grandma that she is you and you are her and she no longer will respect

you.

 

:)

That's why they get reversed when talking to 'others'. The illusory 'me' and

illusory 'you' are within each/every poster (or not).

Don't be silly :-). I tell folks who are interested in 'verbal advaita'. If

she's interested, I'll tell her. Not that it makes any difference one way or

another, as all concepts are false and misleading. The " me " is itself a

concept, a false center around which conceptuality is " held " or clung to.

Because according to your concept we are interchangable and so you are the silly

one (just joking).

 

You say all concepts are false which again is wrong. Concepts are neither true

nor false. They are concepts and are very neccessary and useful for orientation

and communication.

 

This non-dual nihilism is just a comfortable philosophy for sluggish minds but

the world and life is much more complex and you can't escape that complexíty

through verbal advaita.

Well then how is it that saying all concepts are false is " wrong " , if concepts

are neither true nor false? " You " contradict yourself ;-).

They are useful for communication, but make for a very poor " way of being " (the

named person).

The complexity is all in the mind. If this isn't clear, have a look at the

mind.

Oh my God, Tim, you are so powerful logical !

 

You got me and I no longer can escape.

Surely, the complexity is all in the mind. So, take a knife and cut out your

mind and that bad, oh so bad complexity is gone.

 

Isn't that wonderful ? Happiness has kissed you.

Hi Werner darling,

 

There's nothing but mind, call it the Mind of God, the deluded mind,

the ego, the vanishing point, it has been called everything and anything under

the sun.

 

Just never mind the mind, and throw kisses at the moon. (Winking back)

 

Simplify, never objectify.

Ane, I dont see it that way. The world can be called a mind - mind of

mankind. But this mind is not tnescessarily the deluded mind but the natural

way the universe unfolds as humanity. Within this mind of humanity flows a

river of delusion. It is our localized mind that joins that current of

illusion and projects the separate inner observer. Once the illusion is seen

through...the mind of mankind does not vanish although it sufferes a radical

change in perception, till the body dies. To imagine a " parabrhaman " without

some " world-mind " ......well.......only IT can " tell " what that would be..
