The problem is not that it is nonsense, the problem is that you are not actually grasping the significance of it It could just be nonsense, but the problem is you take it as the final answer without "respecting" the actual information that it trying to get to you. Weird phrasing, but I have read a few of your posts and that's your bottleneck. -

Why would you see solipsism as terrifying? If it is the truth then it is the truth. It is like if you were an alien right know, you would just accept that as reality. In other words if you're disgusted by solipsism then it is absolutely your making. On the other hand I understand how it is a mindfuck, because it is haha. Maybe that's the point. Also understanding how God works requires a full grasping of its mechanics, something that if you don't experience you simply cannot bring it to the table. It is a gigantic mistery. You can see rach individual consciousnesses struggling to grasp their true nature, and then have the intuition that it adds up to God. That's the mindfuck and there lies the brilliant mechanics of God. I apreciate the thread, very funny to see different perspectives clashing. -
It is far more common to see people playing the victim and being defensive. Something to be ashamed of.

Rule of thumb is: reader's consciousness will be impacted by what you write. So if you know that then you make use of that.

Not really, I started stretching consistently but I transitioned to lifting weights and running which gave me more wellbeing. I guess I didn't have any muscles to stretch Now I do it sporadically but not formally. Maybe I could benefit more today while mantaining the other activities.

Flying does put me in a creative state too. Something to do with relinquishing control of your life to another human for some hours.

I can't prove it, but I swear you just have a grudge against me Today I had a nightmare where people were going to kill me for not conforming, and that I just needed to shut up and conform.

Eating with utensils is not conformist per se. Just like it was mentioned that the thing in itself is not conformity. But like you are triyng to argue that having a box of tools in your home is conformist, but that's a bad example. A good example of utensils conformity would be for example having a collection of them, buying the expensive ones, the ones with finest art carved unto them, making a whole identity out of utensils, going to utensils conferences where they talk about the tradition of utensils and why you should have the "original" or "finest" set of them, or why you should buy only from a particular company and praising the company's name. That's more like conformity.

I was doing a fasting yesterday and was digging this language topic a lot, having some clarity about it. But it's not something I fully grasp. It made me think how mathematics, music, or any other specific skill emerges from day to day language. As if they were mods you can install. They are like ramifications, when something new appears and you need to integrate it somehow. Think how mathematics didn't existed in certain point in history, same with music notation. Those are codes we develop to hold onto forms, and as memory savers. You can just leave a melody on paper and forget about it. It also made me think how ingenuos it is like I said. We use standard words for a diversity of non related topics, and you can describe them just fine. Think of adjectives and how you may use the same one in completely different contexts. My thinking is still that it is a cognitive stage of development. But the question of how much our understanding is shaped by it is still not fully clear to me. But shortly put, language is the ability to reference things with other things, it is the act of drawing conection between different things. That's why I say imagination is king, but why are we able to do this?

@Vali2003 I appreciate that.

We are shaped by language, not arguing that. So much so that the work we do here is only possible thanks to it. If we want to communicate better then sharing examples is one of the best way to clarify and explain anything. This is not trivial, we learn with examples. @UnbornTaoYou asked how thing are prior to language, so let me take you to a visualization. Take the example of a baby growing up in a houshold with a family that doesn't speak ANY language. So as he grows up he learns to walk, he learns to tie his shoes, he copies how his dad builds stuff, he learns that getting close to a cocrodile might kill him. All of that just by copying the grown ups. And that was possible without language. Now, you want to talk about language then lets do so. I am glad this invention exists, it allows for a lot of beautiful thing in life. It propulses imagination and understanding. Instead of having me physically demonstrate something to you so you learn it I can just write it or speak it and you will follow it as intended. How amazing is that? What other things has that capability? Not many. And also it is so broad and universal that you can talk about anything using the same set of words. That is ingenuity at its finest.

Bad example, next one

How are you supposed to break the food into smaller pieces cleanly without fork and knife? You are throwing bad examples, wait until you have better ones and then share it.
