Stories can't be written without 'time'. They would be senseless. The time phenomenon can be appreciated without being believed or identified.

In zero's defence, (not that it's needed) if you go back and read the earliest posts he spoke very coherent for the first three pages

Hey moderator's lives matter too!

Weed will unravel ALOT for you, meanwhile forming another ball of yarn on the side that you don't notice at first.

(Not aiming towards you, just wanted to add a thought) Going without psychedelics, many need to do all that unraveling before they can have intense concentration on the NOW. (mostly because of self-trickery that they need to, but still)

whew good thing the character doesn't have to do all the leg work.. just sit back and enjoy. Thanks.

My washing machine has a speed wash setting just for this reason. Not everything needs to waste tons of water to get clean

yeah those ones. Just speaking within story terms, watching a home video is at least a more unified "sequence of events" than two people trying to recount the same story from memory. It appears to stay the same whether I show the home video to no one, or to hundreds, quite unlike telling a story with words. Maybe this has nothing to do with time but do you have any thing to say about it? Maybe I'm asking more about recording vs recounting.

What about the home videos? What did they record?

@Artsu and that's just the story of a man that we don't even know for sure existed.

Has anyone ever heard of overactive id? I wonder if it ties to solipsism in some way ?

One interpretation can be : The father - unmanifest infinite potential Holy spirit - consciousness, both 'material' Manifestation and immaterial - (the mother) The son - prefect marriage of consciousness and Manifestation. For all we know has only manifested in humanity. Jesus - was like leo of his time. Basically trying to explain all this. Was made to be a God in religion.

@Artsu there's a spectrum of hypocrisy... One can be open hypocrites, closeted, or unintentional. For example I have gained alot of 'wisdom' over the years and can give great advice every now and then like 'oh you should meditate to help your problems' but I make no promise that I actually follow my own advice.

ya'll I can't find the dead horse I think it go beaten to a pulp.

Like.. Hypocrisy? Most preachers are hypocrites. I think the phenomenon you're looking for is human or ego behaviour.

humans dream, the earth dreams, the sun dreams, the cosmos, and so on--- dreams within dreams, within the dream of dreaming.

what is actually wrong in your life? List 5 things that are going wrong in your life. what is upsetting you? List some more. Do you live a hard life with a very stressful job? I'd like to hear about it. Or are you just bored?

@VeganAwake what is your experience and opinion on vivid dreaming, lucid Dreaming, and mystical experiences like phychic hits and synchrocities?

By the way, have you tried the audio reading of LOTR by tolkybooks? Includes music and sounds effects from the movies, and full characterisations of the cast.

Isn't this what happens when you read the book? You literally have a dream that you are these characters. Thanks Tolkien!

Would they have the newborn baby is the question. What drives procreation?

@Aaron p that's an awesome discernment method!

It the same as asking how are there levels of forgetfulness.

God of what? Is God God of itself? Or is God God of a bunch of nonexistent entities? In either scenario, what God?
