Make sure to post one article every three days for the next year, or else we're not keeping up. -

There have been performances of Black Metal music on national TV in Norway. It's not a big thing in society in general though. -

You keep saying everything is just consciousness (which is true), but then you're making distinctions like "room". I'm just putting those distinctions in a category called sense perceptions, which is what you do to understand things. Room is also a category, just a less inclusive category. Of course you know the difference between consciousness with a room in it and consciousness without a room in it, so you know the difference between consciousness and a sense perception. -

Why call it a room if it's just concsciousness? -
Carl-Richard replied to Someone here's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Yes, the room is within consciousness, but the room is a sense perception. -

Yes. Np. -

But have you experienced anything you're talking about? -

My eyes vs. your eyes? Isn't that a distinction? It's not that distinctions don't exist. It's that distinctions are from the absolute perspective One. -

Brains are within consciousness, not the other way around. Brain activity seems to correlate with certain sense perceptions (seeing, hearing, smelling, etc.), but again, sense perceptions are not consciousness. As for there being an external physical world, the way certain sense perceptions seem to appear along fairly consistent patterns (described by concepts such as space and time) can compel you to use the description of "external physical world" (e.g. when you go to the store, your house is still there when you return), but it's still all occuring within consciousness which doesn't have an inside or an outside. -

They're very much the same thing, my guy. It's just that cessation is when you let the effects run for longer without interruption and maxing them out. Consciousness is pure being/knowing, and perceptions (seeing, hearing, smeeling, etc.) arise secondarily. -

The more abstract the quote, the worse. What does "conscious being" mean? Also, if you're infinite consciousness, then when did you "become sentient"? Hasn't consciousness always been here? How can consciousness vanish when you die? The only thing that vanishes when you die is your human form and the sense perceptions associated with it (thoughts, feelings, emotions, etc.). Besides, I already responded to a quote from that article. Are you saying there is a logical inconsistency in the article? -

I know, but it does to people who write about solipsism, which you told me to read about. Because you are not a thought, feeling, emotion, experience, object, sound, shape, color, or sensation. You are consciousness. Solipsism is when you take something which is not consciousness and identifying it as yourself and making deductions based on that. "My body is in the center, therefore no other bodies have a mind". If you're trying to say that consciousness is primary, forget bodies, forget thoughts, feelings and emotions. Those things are not inherent to consciousness. Consciousness is fine without them.
