Brain mapping

[sarapr]

If Brains don't exist and we are living in a dream that's caused by something else or nothing, will the scientists get the results they're looking for from the brain mapping projects that's occurring in many countries ?

This whole notion of brains don't exist and life is a dream makes a bit more sense to me after I had this dream and in this dream I opened my skull like oping a zipper and took my brain out and had it in my hands and I was looking at it and while I was looking at it , I had all sorts of questions coming up in my dream I was thinking if my brain is in my hands then how am I seeing it , How am I still able to perceive stuff , how am I even thinking right now . with total confusion I got up put my brain back and walked out in despair, all the while worrying about the back of my skull that was left open and thinking to myself that I don't understand, I'll figure it out later.

But now I can see that the brain in my dream had nothing to do with my ability to perceive stuff in the dream and that ability was created by something entirely different so if our brain right now is as irrelevant as that of in my dream to being the ground for our perceptions then what would scientist find out after mapping the brain?

Its just a theory, dont take it personally haha. When you in a calm state, the truth doesnt matter, all it matters is how you feel

Fuck that I want to know how far they can reach and what they'll discover about the brain will entail

I dont know if life is a dream. But I do know that I am conscious when im dreaming and that im not dreaming when im...well awake. I stop trying to know the absolute truth (only sometimes) and instead  I just let go

But also I guess we can wait till they discover it

True knowledge is discovered by one's own experience

 

Thats why many teachers find more and more truths and their followers remain in doubt and disatisfied because they dont look for themselves!

Buddha cant awaken you, Jesus cant awaken you, no one can but...you!

Brain does create perceptions but it does not exist just like any other object.

You sure about that, cuz?

What is this all you see and touch, then!?

Must it not be...reality?!

Dreams have some sort of consistency.

Maybe it is possible that science discover something and makes this all thing way easier.

It may never happen, too.

So don't wait, the act of waiting is in itself a distraction, however convincing it seems, it is a trap.

The most dangerous trap.

Nothing, what makes you think an object exists?

I'm not saying I'm waiting for science to give me all the answers and awaken me and until then I'm sitting on my ass doing nothing, I'm saying if the researchers succeed in mapping the brain what will they find in there? and that's sth only for science to say and  for us to speculate

You cant have more evidence than reality!

"Brains do not exist" and studying the brain scientifically are not in conflict at all. We are talking about two different levels of reality.

Brains exist as perceptions. Perceptions are empty and not happening inside yet more brains (yet more perceptions.)

What sense does it make to say that a brain (a perception) is happening within a brain (another perception)???

Perceptions do not happen inside other perceptions. That is the illusion that must be broken.

In truth, there is no perceptions happening at all. There is only BEING which is mistaken for perception.

Speculating, what for ? 

That's the same thing as wanting to know what will happen in one year at the same hour.

If there is two things that kills everything in life, it's expectation and speculation, remove those from your life

So knowing how a perception works shouldn't tell us anything about the other perceptions of the world that we have?

in other words will knowing how the brain works tell us anything about how wr can see and experience the world the way we do?

There's book called holographic universe by Michael Talbot, it sheds some light on your questions

@Monkey-man It's the first time I managed to get a book that fast. I'll read it thanks.
