You don't exist !

[Will1125]

Do you agree ?

[Ero]

Non-existence is non-existent.

[Spiritual Warfare]

Non-existence does not exist, which means only existence exists.

Depends on what you mean by non-existence

The real definition of non-existence is that it doesn’t exist. Nothing is not something.

It does not. “Non” stands for negation denoted in logic as -A or A^C or \bar A. 
 

Let A stand for existence. Assume -A (non-existence) exists. Hence -A is in A (all things that exist). But that is a contradiction, because their intersection (\cap)  is by definition of negation empty. 

Proof by contradiction.

I don’t agree, because life will try to find each and every way to show to you. Also it’s evident. Your heart beats, your lungs, basically every human function. Just as how nature is alive. Regardless of it being grass, water, fire, wind, etc. 

We are alive. Regardless if we acknowledge it or not. 

[Keryo Koffa]

There are states of non-awareness, but not of non-existence. Existence is infinitely malleable, scaling in and out of form.

"You," as in the arbitrary conglomeration of mind identifications that you're currently feeling in your nervous system, doesn't really exist in a coherent way. 

But life is a paradox, a strange loop. "You" don't exist, and yet, you exist! Here you are! This thing is happening! Heart is beating, lungs are breathing, a physical location is seen.

And the most fundamental truth that can be apprehended is, "I am."

Don't fall for the neo-Advaita stuff. That is a very naive understanding. Who believes he doesn't exist?

[Carl-Richard]

Hanzi Freinacht was right. Studying the Model of Hierarchical Complexity does make you disillusioned about people.

Do you have any arguments for your position?

How to "show" to "You" if "You" Don't  exist?

This questions lead one to no deep awakenings. Die a little bit more.

I was reading the book " I am That" by Sri Nisargadatta, and truly the blablabla start making one very bored. My own direct experiences are much more good material to contemplation than words of any Advaita or Neo-Advaita. Pre-Digested knowledge is not good nutrition when you aim to go Direct.

What does exist?

[Keryo Koffa]

Nothing exists ≠ No thing exists ≠ Everything is relative/contextual/interconnected

It's a state of consciousness.

[Thought Art]

“Down on your knees

begging us please

praying that we don’t exist.

but, we exist!”

[Lyubov]

Stop these stupid word games and focus on your life and you will discover love in the divine sense and realize how real you are. 

[Yimpa]

You’re Life.

@Thought Art Keep this up man… your trolling is getting old.

It does. The claim isn't that non-existence exist, the claim is that certain things don't exist (in this case you).

I am curious if you can derive a contradiction from the premise of "you don't exist".
