Posted July 7, 2022 This sentence comes from me. I am literally making a part of your experience by inputting this sentence into your brain. I am outside of your body. Thus, this input is coming from outside your body. How can I be a dream if I exist beyond your body? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 7, 2022 Sigh..... You are a selfless LACK OF APPEARANCE, that CONSTRUCTS AN APPEARANCE. But that appearance can disappear and reappear and we call that change, we call it time, we call it space, we call it distance, we call distinctness, we call it other. But notice...this appearance, is a SELF. A SELF IS A CONSTRUCTION!!! So if you want to know the TRUTH OF THE CONSTRUCTION. Just deconstruct the construction!!!! No point in playing these mind games!!! No point in creating needless complexity!!! The truth of what you are is a BLANK!!!! A selfless awareness....then that means there is NO OTHER, and everything you have ever perceived was JUST AN APPEARANCE, A MIRAGE, AN ILLUSION, IMAGINARY. Everything that appears....appears out of a lack of appearance/void/no-thing, non-sense (can't be sensed because there is nothing to sense). That is what you are, and what arises...is made of that. So nonexistence, arises/creates existence. And thus everything is solved. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

From any perspective, that sentence came from nowhere.. where did you get it from? You have no idea. It simply appeared as your experience like EVERYTHING else. "I could be the walrus.

Posted July 7, 2022 (edited) @Mason Riggle No it was generated by me just like this sentence. It only appears because I made it appear. Edited July 7, 2022 by WokeBloke Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 7, 2022 (edited) @WokeBloke how did you generate it? Where did you get it from? Did it simply occur to you (from???) to think it, or did you think it before you thought it?

Posted July 7, 2022 @WokeBloke that sentence appeared in your awareness just as it did in mine.. it wasn't there, and then it was.. This is the nature of reality. It's all happening, and you're not doing it. You can't stop it. "I could be the walrus. I'd still have to bum rides off people." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 7, 2022 @WokeBloke lol, you're not stopping what's occurring.. this thread ending just means something else is occurring. You didn't do any of it. You are part of what's occurring. You can't stop being yourself, and you can't be other than how you are currently being, and that's happening.. and you can't stop it. Any attempt to change what's occurring, is just more 'what's occurring'. "I could be the walrus. I'd still have to bum rides off people." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 7, 2022 @WokeBloke you are like a branch on a tree that looks at the growing apples and thinks, 'I am doing that'.. even though it has no idea how, and it can't stop, and it doesn't realize that it (the branch) is something that the whole tree (alas, the entire Universe) is doing.. and 'the branch' is not 'causing' anything, but rather, simply being how it is. This is ego. This is 'the branch' imagining that it's separate from everything else, rather than just more of what's already going on, effortlessly. You can never change what's occurring.. your attempt to do so is just more of what's occurring. "I could be the walrus. I'd still have to bum rides off people."

Posted July 7, 2022 @WokeBloke incorrect.. reality is changing, constantly, and that's what you are. "Seeming acts of volition merely arise spontaneously ... and cannot be traced to a point of origin in our conscious minds. A moment or two of serious self-scrutiny, and you might observe that you no more decide the next thought you think than the next thought I write." - Sam Harris. "I could be the walrus.

Posted July 7, 2022 (edited) @WokeBloke go ahead and change what you are about to do next.. go on.. try it.. Do ANYTHING other than 'what you are about to do'.. you can't.. because anything you do is 'what you were about to do'. You can't change anything. Everything is changing, though.. 'YOU' aren't something that 'does things'.. are just 'are' (happening). Who is growing your hair?? Is it you? If it is.. if you're the one 'doing it'.. go ahead and stop doing that.. I dare you.

Posted July 7, 2022 (edited) @WokeBloke just pay attention to your experience.. where will your next thought come from? Will you 'generate' it, or will it simply arise in your mind? I argue it's the latter.. everything in my experience arises into my awareness, including my own thoughts.. from where? I have no idea. What will I think next? I have no idea until it occurs to me.. I can't 'cause myself' to think anything other that whatever occurs to me to think.. I am not 'generating' anything.. I am experiencing everything, and I don't have to try to do it, and I can't stop. If I ask you to 'think of a number'.. some number may occur to you.. but why that number? why not some other number? You have no idea. You can't think of any numbers that don't occur to you. Did you think of four thousand and six? Why not? You know that's a number, but for whatever reason, that didn't occur to you.. do you think you could have caused it to? Do you really think 'YOU' are 'the cause' of the thoughts that 'occur to you'.. or anything else that appears in your awareness? Edited July 7, 2022 by Mason Riggle "I could be the walrus.

Posted July 7, 2022 @WokeBloke It was never about do you exist outside of my experience, but do I even have experience outside of yours. Who told you that "others" are real? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
