In my experience fantasy and mind constructions can be ways to escape uncomfortable feelings in the body, emotions, boredom

Ok . I’d say I agree. Based on some of my own experiences. It’s like a kind of “distance” to the stressful mind activity(or tension in the body, and other ways stress can manifest as) is required , and that “distance” is kind of like an clear awareness of it, which I guess is similar to what you call “being grasped as is happening”. It’s probably hard because we get caught up in the stressful mind activity

Yea some veggies are more common to eat raw and maybe that has some science behind it. Lol the connected video

Good to hear

You meant you “can”?

Thoughts are concepts right? And feelings are triggered by concepts

i constantly feel like I exist and constantly feel like there’s something going on, something happening, that to me is experience. But there must be something else than this experience, may that be nothing, maybe it’s a paradox because you can’t experience nothing so all I have is experience of something I mean this constant experience, there must be something else than this. Maybe that’s what’s “longed for”

This “concrete configuration “ is the brain right? But for experience to happen doesn’t there need to be some sense of duality? For one to recognize something as happening. Otherwise it’s like nothing. And that duality is self even if it’s really simple. Like doesn’t a retarded person still have some kind of self

But don’t the first memory come from when a self had formed? I don’t remember before that yea I see the self as a structure too. With no duality between preceptor and perception wouldn’t that be same as nothing

How do you know baby has experience? And ant. We have no memory of being baby could as we’ll have been nothing

The reason you have a sense of having an experience, of something going on is because you have a self. Period. I’ve been in states of near total self dissolution naturally that I barely can talk about with anyone because it’s so strange. And in those states the world has almost no 3D depth, it’s the self that creates that 3D depth that space sense. Sense of time too, sense of continuity, sense of something going on at all. All becuase you have a self, if it was reduced or gone you’d understand

I know we already talked about it but you mean we can’t perceive complete stillness?

I don’t get what u mean by “sourced by”

Yea I’m open to it

Experience is the sense that there is something going on, something existing. And that sense comes about because there’s a sense of a self. So sense of self creates sense of something, of experience Experience of something= sense of something Something along those lines is what I think. It’s based on my own experiences Very deep interesting topic

I wish I could recognize that

It was still good I’m not saying it’s bad. Just pointed a tendency out

Typical separate human to humanize nothingness

Ok

Ok

Yea it varies

I’ve heard he was on it short term

What’s the issue?

Thanks for the elaborate answer! So yes some raw veggies are not ideal. Good thing I enjoy cooking

What do you mean by formalized?
