Are you typing continually existing sentences yet?

Geo - I know what you're trying to suggest, I've tried suggesting such things many times. Yet I know how limited the viability of these suggestions are. -d- Does not matter. Its fun to try to put it in words - and some will listen. -geo- All the commentary about a program is coming from what you're calling the program - which isn't really a program at all. -d- Did not understand a word of that. I am calling consciousness the program. It can be seen as such in all its limitedness and luminosity. The words aome from memory but the seeing of the program no. -geo- It's equally true for my words too, if I speak of awareness and related topics. I can't tell you whether to consider language true or false, real or imaginary - because using those labels is just language trying to comment about itself on its own terms - which is invalid. Same thing when thought tries to know thought by using thought, or self tries to know self, or Self tries to know Self, or person tries to know person or people. - D - And what are you doing here then? So lets put it in word anyway..Folly for folly lets folly.. -geo- avast! Antivirus: Inbound message clean.

And the entire notion of using programmed language to comment about the programmed consciousness is equally absurd. - D - That is an art. I have been helped with such words....why cant I do the same?

And I don't know why anyone would do that. Sometimes the lunacy of the attempt is seen and the conversation gets silly. Its all just consciousness surfing its own wake. toombaru Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 Toomba, I did not tell you the truth. I know wu wei, aka waine liquoreman. (never read wu wei in fact) I attended a few meetings in his house through the net for curiosity. (I have the link to to it if you want - bellow) We exchanged perhaps a dozen posts - I can send them to you if I still got them somewhere. Yes...he will agree with you. He apparently doesnt talk about or is not "aware" of anything beyond consciousness. That is where I stoped listening to him....because it goes against something that is clear to me...so.... But I must warn you: he is a guru type. http://www.advaita.org/ -geo- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that which is beyond consciousness, the no-thing-ness is not food for the mind. Never was or will be - impossible. but that does not mean that no-thing is not is-ing. -geo- avast!

And I don't know why anyone would do that. Sometimes the lunacy of the attempt is seen and the conversation gets silly. Its all just consciousness surfing its own wake. toombaru You contradict yourself. The words are from consciousness. The glimpse, the fact, no. Nothing mystic about it. Now...you can not get cought by the desiese called religious-guru-hangover. It means that at one time or other you overdid it...too much wrong efforts in the wrong direction and now you react to it. The result is that you not only cant stand gurus by also believe that any and averything they may say is BS - a trauma. I never followed one single guru in my life and I can say that some of them have something to say others not - just like any human being. No traumas please.. -geo- avast!
