What is The Human Condition?

[ZX_man]

Post your thoughts/ideas here

@ZX_man perfect the way it is. Allows for experience at all. If it were ideal, a euphria, it wouldn’t, and couln’t, exist. (Not that it does) We’ll have that when we’re dead. (Not that we die)

[ZX_man]

@Nahm you can't assume what happens when we die, now. Were we in a euphria before we were born?

[Nahm]

@ZX_man absolutely. You still are, now. You’re just a few seconds faster than it, cause it’s that unconditional.

There are many:

Quite simply the seeming duality of a segregated self-identity vs a world 'out there'.

It is all there is. It allows experience or awareness to exist, after that comes the whole world.

The default state is Forgetfullness and ignorance.

@AleksM Oh right, I forgot about that !

[snowleopard]

Then again, maybe the human condition is what a higher dimensional being experiences when they take their equivalent of a psychedelic trip

[AleksM]

@snowleopard

If higher dimensional beings would take some form of a psychadelic, then everything would be even more psychadelic, because the energy channels would open up to the higher electromagnetic light spectrums, just like in our dimension. But I don't think they need it.

In higher dimensions buildings are moving, buildings are emmiting sound, everything is morphing and changing, it's fluid, vibrant, like a dance of form, form looks like it's alive, technology responds to thoughts. 

In this dimension the energy is condensed to a slow vibration and so it appears slow, motionless, stationary...

@AleksM  Well, it wasn't really a serious conjecture ... Anyway, relieved to hear I'm not a stoned angel !

a big, fat and gross amount of suffering.

The human condition is discovering the Authentic-Self, understanding the Mind, and figuring out how to use the Mind in healthy ways.

[Nexeternity]

To me the human condition is this:

We are infinite and limitless potential (what)  manifesting as perfectly divine apparently seperate beings (who).

We are moved to create through desire, gross desires are material, violent, and generate suffering.

Elevated or purified desires are more spiritual and generate bliss with no negative consequences.

Not knowing who and what we are we live in fear of losing in all its forms.  Losing what we have now or losing in the future.  

We ossilate between appreciationn and lack, love and fear, pure desires and base desires.

We all want to recognize our own infinity but we tend to reach out externally instead of internally.

We make conclusions and close down our minds with beliefs to feel safe, but it backfires.

We open up to the mystery and groundlessness and come back home to bliss.

Asking leading questions such as the question in this thread

Just Questions really - even before thought established itself mr and mrs caveman - right up to all the new technology soon to be created.

All starts with a question (being curious)
