Well, I was mainly speaking from your perspective when I said that I am an appearance. To you, that’s all I am. 
 

Anyway, the individual commonly interpreted as “the one who is experiencing” is also just an appearance. There is nothing that can ever be experienced which is not an appearance. Source = appearance. 

Well that's why I'm asking if you are more than an appearance. Is there more to you then just your response and profile pic on my screen?

I guess you and I have two different views. You claim that the appearance generates itself whereas I think the source of appearances is not an appearance. In other words I think the source of appearances is more fundamental than the appearances.

So I'm curious why you think appearances are the source?

I didn’t claim that the appearance generates itself. All I said is that everything is an appearance. Anything someone can interpret as Source is itself an appearance. The idea of anything generating something else relies on the mental construction of there being something outside of what appears to be in this moment or another moment other than this one.  
 

When there is absolutely no time at all, there is certainly not time for something such as generation. There is simply what appears to be in the exact moment it appears to be.

So I am just wondering if you are actually alive? Are you actually reading my post? Do you have your own life?

Yes. I am real, actually reading your post, and have my own life. However, I'm also lying.

Are you lying that you're lying?

I think we should revise our ideas about spirituality if people get the idea they're the only one existing!!

I suppose you could argue that we are all a speck of the cosmos just like our bodies have an absurd amount of cells.

But imagine if these cells start to proclaim they're the entire body ??

So no you are not me!! I am me and you are you ??

In the grand scheme of things we're both stardust… but who cares!! Why spend your time being human pretending you're not!

Of course. Would I lie to me?
