How do you know that there isn't more than what you perceive since you can only know what you perceive?

@thisintegrated That's like saying I don't exist because you can't see me. I don't understand why people think what they perceive is all that exists.

You mistake what you are aware of for all that exists. What you perceive is an infinitesimal portion of what exists.

@thisintegrated Still there could be things God is unaware of that exist. You are unaware of the cells in your body. Doesn't mean they don't exist.

@Kksd74628 How can you be sure that what you are unaware of doesn't exist?

@Shambhu perhaps "to stand out" also works? Or to have an impact? Or to affect?

Absolutely lovely!

@Kksd74628 It's self-evident what exists. You call that existence. Still your fail to explain what "exists" means.

@Kksd74628 No you explicitly claimed what exists. You didn't say what it means to exist.

What does the word "exist" mean?

Reality is what is. It exists now. Now you can use your imagination to imagine things that don't exist. But don't mistake what you imagine for what actually is. Just my opinion.

What is the fundamental difference between something that exists and something that doesn't exist in your view? My understanding is existent things/beings have properties and nonexistent things/beings have no properties.

@Shambhu So in that case nonexistent things can't even be imagined because as soon as one imagines it then it exists in one's imagination.

I find it so interesting that no one is able to convince anyone else that they exist lol.

@Inliytened1 If you equate the words real and imaginary then you are claiming they have the same meaning. So in saying the distinction is imaginary you are also saying the distinction is real based on your definitions. This is a contradiction. So which is it?

@Shambhu I agree nonexistent things don't exist. When I say nonexistent things I'm talking about an imaginable thing such as a 6 dollar bill.

@Inliytened1 What is mind in your view?

@Inliytened1 What you imagine exists only in your imagination right? Why do you claim everything is imaginary?

@Inliytened1 Why must the duality collapse? Both words are useful. Your computer exists but WW14 doesn't exist yet.

@Flyboy If this post doesn't exist then wouldn't that mean you can't be aware of it? And if you aren't aware of this then how do you respond to this?

@Flyboy Why do you conclude that things neither exist nor don't exist? Isn't existence a property of what you are aware of?

And I have my own mind and my own imagination.

How do you know that you are in control of your body?

Been perusing the forum and Leo's videos and confused as to why some people think I'm imaginary?

@Kksd74628 All of these posts are yours according to you. Some posts you wrote in the past and some posts you write in the future. So your past/future self are literally making posts for you right now isn't it? They are functioning just like you are functioning.
