  1. I am also from Sweden and I have the same concern, I totally agree with your analysis. Too much green is creating weak individuals. We are at the same time immigrating people from countries with lower levels of development which creates a big risk. The weaker green people may pave the way for red and blue people to get a bigger influence in society, which can create some serious problems. Green in of its own will not create a big disruptive movement like fascism but an all including green society has its challenges.
  2. Hi! my first post on this forum so be patient. The question I want to discuss is if everything actually is the same as nothing. Nothing is as hard to imagine as everything. I like to define nothing as what you observe if you take away all your senses and your possibility to imagine these sense (sight, hearing, taste, smell, touch). there is no longer an observer so you observe nothing. With Everything I mean everything without restrictions and without observer since the observer is included. No possible way to stand outside since all are included. Both terms are absolute, but are they the same? example: If everything I see is the same blue as everything else then I would not have a word for this blue and it would not exist. We cant perceive anything without contrast. So in this case everything is blue and nothing is blue at the same time. Does this mean that by knowing nothing we know everything? As socrates said - the only true wisdom is knowing you know nothing!
  3. This is my experience too, it just slips away like a paradox. Okay so Eckhart Tolle says its true and therefore it is?
  4. I have made that mistake. But I agree it is not a negative state, it is as you say nothingness. I do not know how to respond to the other posts. I often come across these creative explanations but they do not give me much if there is no logic behind it.
  5. I love to have someone (no-one) to discuss these things with! Yes I meditate every day. Attain complete ignorance? I dont know anything and I have never known anything so there is nothing to attain. but just as a paradox do everything (nothing) point at me being here knowing things and writing this. Okej RichardY you are confirming my thought but please elaborate and give me some more arguments because my mind sometime gets a bit lost and tries to label, reject logic and cling to dogma. And if I ever will discuss these things with not so open minded people harisankartj´s arguments wont be enough.
