Posted June 17, 2018 (edited) Anyway back to the important question. It’s quite interesting how we know that the self is an illusion yet still move and act in a divisive manner. Isn’t it? Edited June 17, 2018 by Faceless Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 17, 2018 (edited) Yes anything recognized according to experience, knowledge, and memory is a movement of thought. But that process/movement is still a fact that takes place. Edited June 17, 2018 by Faceless Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any movement and response in accordance to experience, knowledge, memory, is a movement of thought As all that is the self. This is a fact.

Posted June 17, 2018 (edited) i Just shared what is considered a movement of thought. Do you see that anything responded in accordance to the above, is a movement of thought? Experience, knowledge, memory. Edited June 17, 2018 by Faceless Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 17, 2018 @Ether I discovered back in 2016 that thoughts dont appear in a mind. Have I done anything else Im not aware of? Dont look at me! Look inside! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 17, 2018 (edited) Lol Any form of communication is a movement of thought. Are you denying that thought is the response of experience, knowledge, memory? Simple yes or no. If there was none of that would there be a movement of thinking at all? Simply answer. A movement of thought is how you are responding. A movement of thought is a fact. A movement of thinking that takes place. This is so simple. Edited June 17, 2018 by Faceless Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 17, 2018 Just now, Joseph Maynor said: Saying ‘communication is a movement of thought’ is trivial. What’s your point? You are not answering the question of whether thought is the response of experience, knowledge, and memory. Why? Even your idea of a “thought-story” is a movement of thought that you have accumulated through experience, knowledge, and memory. Right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 17, 2018 @Faceless I agree, thoughts are created by experiences, memories, etc... (self). But again, experiences, memories, etc... (self) are created by thoughts in the first place. Where is it all occurring and why? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You have no awareness of how you’re clinging to certain beliefs as if they are conceptual truths about reality. So, do some focusing inward before diagnosing outward.
