  1. Well slow down there speedy Gonzolez, hold on... We are at "if you can cancel out everything, what do you have left?"
  2. Like if you can cancel out everything, what do you have left? Its actionable cancelation, and yet, here we are still.
  3. Thats the basic definition of those terms. Thats not where the understanding of paradox stops however, cause you are to be faced w/ paradoxes, And yet... Why are we here? So i ask, what conclusion does that lead you to ~ about paradox and the nature / function, the thing that you want to contrast, etc, etc., thats sortve what is meant by the basic English def., and the interpretations necessary to actualize or introspect past like.. "Im so confused about life", or... "i know as much as im ever gonna know...", Like these are common conclusions ppl come to, like there is this steelwall blocking a conceptual realm called reality.
  4. Yea, but what is meant by "good"? Thats a construct you are inventing, and are applying it to be inside of everything. Like, you cant break the standard, if you dont even have ways to define said standard, which is to say then that description preludes actualization, Like you dont have to actually believe it, since you can "say what you believe", and it doesnt necessarily align w/ you, as belief isnt pointing to something tangibly true. Like you dont hold onto thoughts you have, enough for them to be practically true in any way, so why would there be "absolution" in the course of "realizing yourself to be one"? Like, how did you end up here then? See below... Likewise, you cant have "Not a thing" and "All things", not only because "Not a thing" isnt a "thing" you can conceive of (unless negation is being used per its function, through speech~and not practically), but also, you are facing towards "those things that you think exist from both directions, absolutely", but the entire point is that, you cant have both sides. Once you challenge the other side of the equation ~ once you instigate "one" or "the other"... It validates "one" (YOUR construct of one) instead of the other, your construct of other. Like if you last left off @ "One", that then counters "Two". If you have two, it counters one. It's not that the second choice wasnt an option, like... you just assume that its "simplified as one", but thats not the practical mechanism that is giving rise to that, for theres something that validates "oneness" prior to believing, saying, or actualizing. Likewise, it feels like everything you say is in the realm of validation, precisely because you have the ability to counter your own experiences. So what is that? Like, you are validating oneness, prior to validating your own experience as yourself, which doesnt make sense.
  5. Im diagnosed w/ schizophrenia. Ive been going to mental health appts for roughly 17, 18 or 19 years... As ive had a very long mental health journey / exploration. I dont have ADD / ADHD Also, constant anxiety is related to "anxiety disorders", not ADHD. With ADD, Thats when you are very much like "highly energetic, and cant help yourself" kindve things. You cant concentrate and you have issues since the mind is very curious, etc. Very different category, almost not even 1% related in that bespoke context of having panic attacks, etc. Like when kids are diagnosed w/ ADD, thats not because they have anything about them thats necessarily gone through trauma, or high anxiety situations, or things like this... Likewise, Adult ADHD is the same way, its systemic to "issues around paying attention", not "history w/ anxiety disorder". So you are way off. Like... What? Another thing i have however is nightmares (no its not related to ADD either, not even close). I was bout to make a different thread about nightmares, since i had a bad round of nightmares last night, of which i couldnt wake up from, and i was gettin sniped, like literally shot from a neighbors house, and the bullets were needles... And i was stuck in this like, 100,000 ft (vertically) tall house, but like a barbie doll/polly pocket pull-out house, measured horizontally... And it was in these like, victorian style row homes, which im not even sure thats a thing, but i had to really hide myself, like, from the windows and like.. but even then, they could still snipe through the walls, And then i moved to another house nextdoor, but they eventually figured that out. And this dream went on for wat seemed days, and i kept getting shot w/ these needle bullets. And theres was like multiple snipers (atleast two), as they had no life, Like that was their entire existence, in that dream, to be scouting me, finding me and shooting at me. And it registered as physical pain, in the dream, like getting your face smashed in or something, like i mean, it wasnt a dart gun, it was real gun bullets, in a needle-like shape.
  6. And part of it is its simplicity. Like if you start telling a joke to a foreigner and its highly complex going into the parts w/ utilities and A/C, or their lack of, rather, its getting too complex, like imagine you are telling it to world leader(s). So it has to be very much like a single sentence, so that its kindve stupid sounding. Like, even just 'death to america, without anything around it -is probably something that could get N Korea laughing i feel like, like...
  7. Parts of what you were saying probably do make sense in that basic English sense, but i couldnt really know (not sure i can ever know really). I have like a very specific idea in mind now/thus i cant remember 100% how far off, or how close to, etc, etc., and its also hard to really go on like, a purely broadened overview, seeing as theres some little details / directions / questions, Do we care about survival? Do we want to "know" something more specific... Or does it all end at "absolute" and its understandng of? I dont have them questions on my dashboard / queued up right now exactly, but those are questions that can change things drastically.
  8. Im thinkin on this one right now, cause Being might already carry "totality of", but Being also functions as the first thing towards all other things, however in the context w/ no qualities, then you cancel out the very thing itself, right then and there, which means you have the centipedes dilemma thing, that is "explaining experience, while experiencing", so in that sense, Being is already the totality you are searching for then. Being can be the absolute, or you can frame Being as more like, the necessary component (or something...) cause like... English didnt really work on making Being a defined term, so if you are using English to investigate Being, its using this limited pointer construct to do so... Like the hierarchy of words matters in reflecting the understanding of Being, is all i was tryina get to really, but there are ways of "getting up to that plateau of understanding" prior to knowing that hierarchy of Being (Being of hierarchy)
  9. Oh thats def somethin' — That is — You got the purely absolute realm, to try to encapsulate — which is really the experience and the-idea-or-intention-in-active-pursuit thing, of which is needed to activate the levels of everything inside that absolute realm — And then, you have those details-of-description... That is itself good to get across, for im not entirely sure if thats something that like.... iuno... Do people just know that? Like, im not sure. Ergo, its good to just say / communicate.
  10. (i dont know if this connects to whats been last said, but seeing as i was already in the middle of writing it, and it looks like it does, im sending it) Like, for instance, if all there was was a subtractive thing, like a zero mechanism-thing... zero purpose... what would you have, right? Youd then be subtracting... Youd be experiencing still, but calling it all zero... So on the most primitive subtractive level, it most certainly doesnt mean anything to you to keep subtracting and subtracting (not that you were doing it, its just a thought) Granted, on LsD / shrooms for example, you are introduced to something of a felt subtraction / machine, that you later are able to internalize into words that those w/ said exp., will recognize, assuming 'they follow that same realm of reasoning? (they might not have ur undivided attention that day, ya never know). Its like 10 years later, it finally paid off, it finally made some sense, and so, it starts to make much more sense at that point, that particular experience/state of consciousness. p.s. theres too many damn paths dangit. im confusing myself.
  11. Sorta, ya... theres less emphasis on like, the action by which its operated, like "the fast switch" part, since thats one of many mechanisms you could imagine it as, i mean, theres gonna be atleast "one" mechanism to underlie it, put it that way. Which is not to say that its as boring as it sounds, im just following your introduction.
  12. @Joseph Maynor This is kinda wat i was imaginin, tho its missin some rock / jazzy elements and such (im surprised by some ofthese covers, but the ai makes some unusually robotic vocal and rhythm decisions at points, like unatural stops imo)
  13. Jamaican cooking is part of the mystery school Speaking of beans, i wrote up this little jokey/rant — A midnight rant on cooking. It may come off critical, but ya gotta keep reading. i think it will fully cover all the moral stops and jenga and watknot, such that its not so bad. ... If you rewind the clock, there were alot of passionate mothers cooking food, And naturally we have lost alot of that passion and knowledge. Its just not a priority like it once was, and as a result, you have this new hierarchy / situation ill be revealing. ... To start w/ I wouldve said the Italian mother's really understood how to distill that affectation of the split components, such that you had that smooth, glossy affectation on one side... the dedicated entree (meat, vegetable, etc.) on the other, however most of those gransmas died w/ their recipes!... So then we go to the middle east, where everything is a little more rough and tumble, like you get more rough, grainy textures, less attention to affectation. Then we go back around to Georgia, Russia/Ukraine and those kinds of places... And thats where affectation starts to return a little, only made prominent once we arrive in Chinese/Japanese places, where plenty of knowledgable cooking alchemists are striving. The last stop is Jamaica, where good cooking is almost a requirement, and to me thats the last stop here, because everywhere else doesnt capture wat im tryina express, so much as they have like, signature street/fast foods, which do not fit in this criteria. It has to be more like an affectational meal, if you know what i mean by that... Like it cant be grainy textures nd watknot 😆 It has to be like, the affectational meal made for people who have Crohns disease, like... Iuno its hard to explain. The only reason the middle east doesnt meet the full A+ criteria is because of traditions and dryness lvl (tell me im wrong, bet...). When people marry themselves to traditions, they miss out on that extra, extra love and innovation. Besides for that, middle eastern families are incredible cooks w/ highly prized recipes w/ alot of potential to investigate. As far as Greek food, to me Greeks (Ancient Greeks) are better at explaining what NOT to eat... to avoid a Crohns attack. Most families assume you should just consume, consume, consume, but to me, Greece is the only place that was like "We dont eat beans" (Pythagoreans + Orphics, etc.) I dare you to try eating baked beans one day, and tell me you dont feel like you have to go to the hospital 12 hours after. Regular beans, not only are they grainy, They have this texture that turns into concrete for some reason, so you have to be careful. Soybeans and fava beans are more like, specialized ejaculation beans. And for some reason, even though we love soy sauce, real Chinese soy sauces have more soy, and subsequently more of a BBQ flavor, which is why i prefer the Japanese/American soy sauce. But Chinese have all of the base recipes that we are now using as the pinnacle. If Italian grandmas were not all deceased, their food wouldve been the pinnacle, im tellin ya!... we just live in a shty time now. P.s. Alot of African Americans are really good at "cookin things up" if ya kno wat i mean, And i could imagine they would be A++ cooks, cause they actually have more technical cooking skills than most, where the difference between trash and *product comes down to the pico-second. So they actually have an experience no other person has, which is exactly that alchemical cooking principle that im talking about. They are all this generations cooks. White Americans? They are good at Ozempic face and things like this... I European cooks all died. Thats been my experience. They all died, lol. Its funny, even if, there are cases where its not true. Like I think the joke has more function to it than the details. Essentially, All the Other World's books depends on the bean counter, lol, whatever that means.
  14. Yous know my knowledge of Anime past the year 1995 is very weak, so i just started watching The Other World's Books Depend on the Bean Counter... And i read the summary and im tryina understand wat im getting into here, as it sounds interesting but i dont get what its about... i see "books" in the title, but then i read bout the main char slipping into another world originally to save a girl... and the whole fantasy kingdom setting, but what was the book thing? And why did the main char start out saying hes gonna be like the group cook, or is that just like "ill worry bout making food on the journey", and not like "my profession is cook" p.s wow im learnin bout cooking from this show, as i didnt know scallion ginger sauce til now... i thought i always seen little bits of garlic but maybe it is ginger... hopefully it teaches me wtf that super savory like chickeny/oystery sauce flavor is, as ive spent a long time of not understanding wat it is...
  15. Whichever people, or... Whoever is into Islam... ya'll gotta start refuting each other or bring awareness towards what yous are sayin (your stance on war, and islam, etc.), or start a thread on it (assuming you dont wanna use this 1, which i welcome yous to use) and do it with genuine interest/curiosity and refutation behind it (As far as positing and refuting the opposite side thats refuting the opposing sides stance), because ya'lls keep gettin me caught in the center of two totally, randomly different ideas, and its not making any sense, in the greater realm of war and Islam... Which, i already knew that was gonna happen, but yall dont even have a thread for this, actively conspiring... taking place... Feel free to yous this as a platform, but please refute the opposing side (not me) for im not into religions, and i know less than any would who actually reads there bible / religious testimonies. Im independent. Im a homeless blind man basically.
  16. Jeff the yogu What is time, And can you be w/ nature, the birds and the bees, the body, the trees, and can you see what everything is, or forget and see to what truly is? Or is there something to see, a war to be freed from, and more and more and more, what do we seek, What is time when its 'let be, That time w/ eyes closed, heart so wide, whatever it may be on the other side. You'll see into air like time's flare, illumination stare from every direction you care. Its just a poem i wrote to illustrate the video. p.s. avidya was one of my names on another account, tho i just didnt use it much, suffice to say it communicated that side to this idea thats hard to describe, even tho im not a big sanskrit guy, theres avidya and a few terms we could def use
  17. (cont.) @NewKidOnTheBlock Like, i dont even sleep. I stay up 100+ hrs., just thinking into mystico-philosophico-wanderings... Apart from all of the art/language (so much so, that anything about religion and politics is very low on my register, beyond the bare-basic knowledge ive shared), and then i oscillate over that routine - over the course of a period or two, w/ the intention to get everyone thinking, wherever the needle may land; As the mean, median and mode of exploration / thinking in general.
  18. Good. The answers, "Yes". Its about whatever you are willing to share / participate in, overcoming any stigmas attached... The answer is "Yes". And "goood", As far as your willingness to share. Im tryina get some real muslim/ islam ppl thinking, for they are who keep stressin the significance of god and islam, but im the wrong pers. in their eyes, assuming they wanna cont., teachin me, for, im just a person getting everyone to think.
  19. We often get confused cause its like, once we focus in on one particular era or time, we miss the cultures, wars or events happening around the rest of the world, or in the rest of the age of man, etc., cause, to begin, you have humanity developing in Africa (i think its agreed that most humans started in Africa, and slowly evolved / branched out north/westward...) especially given the flood / coastal regions changing their shape... note: we're startin waaaay back now... and jumping ahead... That then leads to humans progressively moving west, but some return east, and back and forth, such that you get this larger spiral shape, smaller when we go back far enough, and it progressively spreads, such that you have Proto-Celtic / Scandanavian people cork screwing in, in what they call a corded ware culture(s) (among other more specific names) Which is just to say, i focus mostly on Ancient European places now, which is lesser known, compared to the middle east, which is well documented w/ artifacts for dating and such... I just like that mysterious Berber-Phoenician wave, and the subsequent A, B, C's Phone-a-bet, like the earliest mysteries of that .... Which i bring up to share something interesting that isnt "24-7 war..." And having to constantly think thats what its about. That would be terrifying. p.s., im also doin alot of language research, ive just taken a commercial break/hiatus, while... Although i feel its cool, its prolly not as important as communicating w/ real ppl to make sure that theres essential / real emotional content shared + passed down.
  20. Just so we all know the names of the eras in that range of periods, it is, considered as, roughly speaking, Late Antiquity — c. 3rd–7th/8th c. AD Migration Period — c. 375–568 AD (overlaps Late Antiquity) Early Medieval — c. 500/600–1000 AD Merovingian (Early Medieval, Frankish) — c. 481–751 AD Carolingian (Early Medieval) — c. 751–887 AD ... p.s. Carolingian minuscule was the standardized script developed under Charlemagne's reign (late 8th c.) Ottonian (Early Medieval) — c. 919–1024 AD High Medieval — c. 1000–1300 AD Romanesque (High Medieval) — c. 1000–1150 AD Gothic (High/Late Medieval) — c. 1150–1400 AD Scholastic (High/Late Medieval) — c. 1100–1400 AD Later or/Most-late Medieval — c. 1300–1500 AD Trecento (Late Medieval, Italy) — 1300s Renaissance — c. 1400–1600 AD Quattrocento — 1400s Cinquecento — 1500s Northern Renaissance — c. 1450–1580 AD .. et caetera.
  21. @NewKidOnTheBlock p.s. the name muhammed isnt unique to that bespoke late antiquity era, see also, Muhmed II "the Conqueror" — led the Ottoman conquest of Constantinople in 1453, ending the Byzantine Empire. Muhmed IV — Ottoman sultan during the failed 1683 Siege of Vienna and the long Great Turkish War that followed. Muhammad bin Tughluq — 14th-century Delhi Sultanate ruler, constant wars across India. Muhammad Shah — Mughal emperor during Nadir Shah's invasion of India (1739) and the sack of Delhi. Muhammad Ali of Egypt — 19th-century Ottoman-Egyptian wars, including campaigns in Arabia, Sudan, Greece, and Syria (1820s–40s). Muhammad Ahmad ("the Mahdi") — led the Mahdist War against Anglo-Egyptian forces in Sudan (1881–99), including the famous Siege of Khartoum. Askia Muhammad I — Songhai Empire wars of expansion in West Africa (late 1400s–early 1500s). And thats just some from 1400 to 1900, theres even more.
  22. Yous have roughly three options, as far as how ppl are to see your stance on war, generally speaking, A) "Im illiterate, so i dont know that theres a real worry around war / and i didnt know the passive case was even an option, B) "I do treat war passively, because, they are their own persons, their own independent persons, who can make tough decisions whilst doing so on their own trip and w/ their own necessary judgements", C) "I think of war like 5-10 year olds do, like its a win / a triumphant scene of celebration qnd badassery... a perpetual win... and losing is not an option .. losing is only what happens in a fantasy realm" ~which i bring up, for if anyone were to lose, it wouldnt feel very good, and you might rethink said win v. loss conditions. It might actually change who you are as a person, like you might become a crazy person to others who dont yet understand what that feels like deep down. Communicating which person you are is the only way to get on the same page as your compatriots.
  23. That counts as late antiquity, atleast in Peter Brown's work. The details of what you were on about werent what i was interested in anyway, it was the larger sentiment on war (see also, other threadz, to understand it)
  24. (cont.) Just to propel this forward — My views on war / religion are very very simple. If yous are gonna take over the world, then take over the world w/ decisiveness, but dont stagger us in the process w/ sillyness. Get on the same page as your compatriots — And do so where no one really cares, cause its not like yous are being judged by a not-God, right? Its all God, right? or no? Does God go on vacations? Like .. If everyone believes its Gods will, you have nothing to fear except Gods will. Which is not my belief, it is what yous believe, presumably. I expect yous to be on the same page if yous are gonna talk about a one religion / one god, otherwise yous are acting silly again.
