We think similar thoughts

2 posts in this topic

The intensity of reality and the tendency of humans is implied right there in the overlap between your and others universal. 

 

You can identify the things that do not have any exceptions as easily as you identify things that has many exceptions if you know to separate identities from their objects. You may come to find universals as personal continuums that returns to you and then diminishes just like any other oscillation, it is precisely in the moment when you question whether the universal is the same for others that human general fixation and reality are distinctly seen as one and the same thing, it is here where you know that everyone else is virtually identical to you.

You can thereby analyse your environment without using mental language. Your language is most of your self identity, in ways you may not be aware of, thinking in the above way costs you a lot of that identity.

 

We may say Like James Gibson that reality is a set of affordances. There are limits to possibilities, and we could not possibly be anything else than we are because every particular variation of perception is like the outermost branches of the same tree, we do not get to know anything more than we already are because what we are is the substance of our knowledge, like the tree is the substance of its branches.

We are completely separated, and that would be impossible if we weren't also identical.


how much can you bend your mind? and how much do you have to do it to see straight?

This reminds me of a quote by Byron Katie:

"There are no new stressful thoughts. They're all recycled."
