@Faceless What is the relationship between thought and memory? I was counting on your explanation, as you always seem to be talking about thought . -

@Monkey-manYour post is very interesting and I will address it later on today. -

That is only through the contemplative perspective. As you go through your daily life, these are mixed and intertwined with each other. A physical pen relates to a physical piece of paper. You don't even have to notice the pen and think of a piece of paper. All you can think of is the text you want to write, and yet - these things come together without your attention. You don't even have to think about the answer, but about the question and the answer comes to you by itself. These references are not meaningless in the sense of being unimportant. They are meaningless in the sense of being arbitrary. That you can link them in various configurations. They are however most of the time emotional in the sense that they 'suck you in' - just like a good movie. Is this Maya? -

@cirkussmile I can relate to this. Thoughts are not an esoteric otherworldly, immaterial phenomena. A material, physical stone is a thought. You can silence the chatter of the mind and it is still obvious that a stone is a stone. There is no need for a thought-word 'stone' so that you can recognize the stone. @Maycol Damn, aren't you a quick learner? -

I'm not looking for my answer in your answers. I'm looking at my answer in your answers. -

Sure it can. Just look at all of the answers in this thread. They all are different shapes that can be cut out of a knife. They are all true. Even your answer is a knife cutting itself by not cutting itself. -

Have you ever tried answering questions by asking questions? -
tsuki replied to mohdanas's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
The conclusion is that the premise can necessarily never be clear. The premise can only be clear by inattention to details. By not looking anymore. The moment that something is clear is the moment that you start to solve the problem that you created yourself. Even if a person comes to you for solutions, you can only solve problems of your own mind. Your understanding of their problem. The same reasoning applies to the problem of hierarchy of people. You can only assess worth of your understanding of other person. By saying that you are better than him, you are saying that you are better than your understanding of him. Saying that is to say that you are better than yourself, as you are your understanding of others. -

Try doing it in the opposite way. Given your understanding of yourself, try to explain to yourself why ordinary people are that way. If this explanation says that they are better/worse than you - you have the root cause of your fear of rejection. You have to find an explanation that does not rank you in any way. That any differences come with both pros and cons that balance each other evenly. This is when you will be able to speak to other people about your experience freely. If you feel better than them, you will seek rejection in their reactions. -

Sanity is a social construct that measures two things: your ability to express your experience to everyday people everyday people's ability to relate to your experience There is no way for you to trust that you are sane, as that requires input from others. You can work on your ability to communicate your experience, so that your questionable sanity becomes normal. -
tsuki replied to mohdanas's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
What would you do if somebody came to you with a question like this? Would you try to answer him and 'help', so that he would feel better? Answers serve only one purpose - to forget questions. It is only possible due to the fact that you answer your own understanding of other people's questions. You also ask people questions and answer them yourself by understanding what they tell you in response. You can never be wiser than yourself. You can never be better than others. Humility and pride in this context are a misunderstanding of what is happening. -

Aren't we actually solving all problems with climate change? Isn't climate change caused by trying to solve all problems? -
tsuki replied to Martin123's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Judging your mother for hurting you is one thing. The other thing is judging yourself for judging your mother. Yet another thing is me judging you for judging yourself for judging your mother for hurting you. Thinking about your mother is not the same thing as hating her. You simply feel hate and feel hurt. Thoughts relate suffering with other thoughts by inattention to their depth. Your mother is a thought as well. Everything you know about her is you. Hating her is hating yourself. Judging her is judging yourself. I'm not saying anything to you. Everything you know about me is you. There is no me, there is only you. Love that. This is why your mother is, and always will be with you. Try not to turn her into a monster and try not to turn yourself into a monster by trying to turn her into a monster. -
For me: an opportunity to introduce my two families to each other to allow my new family to share a unique moment of my life It can go horribly wrong on the both ends, but that's okay. The ceremony is the culmination of our commitment, and not the other way around.

It always struck me in Kahn's videos how he seems to miss to mention the importance of loving hate. The world is beautiful when you love hate and love love. To revolt against it is impossible. I'd love to though. -

Why do you think that? You can see that everything ages and dies, but does that mean that you age and die? What evidence of aging do you have? Pictures of your childhood 'self'? In what sense that childhood self is you other than you calling it that? By calling it you, you are it. This is why aging is real. Because you make it real. By calling young you 'you'. Are you perhaps uncomfortable with the void that I left after pressing your assumptions? -
tsuki replied to MarkusSweden's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
That's common knowledge, right? It's common knowledge to follow common knowledge. Did someone tell you that? Or perhaps you were seeing someone saying it to you? Or maybe you just imagined someone telling it to you and you labelled that as a memory (these are always true, aren't they?). Or maybe you are your belief in physical death? I have never experienced any other death than the one that I'm experiencing now. It feels like a dream I've never had. -
tsuki replied to MarkusSweden's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
As you are reading this reply, you are the reply and there is no you. As you are imagining what I'm trying to convey, you are me and there is no you. The dream is not the physical body, the physical body is in the dream. Even the dream is in the dream. You are whatever comes up in the dream. As you look at a pen, there is nothing in the pen that makes it a pen. You are the pen. As you are angry, or infatuated, you are the emotion. There is nothing else that is this emotion. It is you. Your soul is not located somewhere behind your eyes, unless you think that it is there. The next dream is not after physical death. You don't notice death, as the next dream comes when you shift your awareness. You die the moment you are the next you. You are the lack of animals' emotions. -

It screws with you because it is real. When you sit through it, you see what reality is.
