Re: The nature of consciousness

[[[ 1. Because your concept ONE Person who is all alone with no one beside them has the potential to keep the concept of self alive in consciousness. Belief in self is the antithesis of emptiness. 2. Because your concept of ONE Person who is all alone with no one beside them does not address clearly...

Re: The nature of consciousness

[[[Perhaps this is the greatest suffering of all, finding the perfect way and time to speak of emptiness.]]] I'll pull some text from my PDF and see if this is an answer that may assist you. (from ulineart dot com - my book) Here the J is me and I'm talking in first person as the ONE person who is a...

Re: The nature of consciousness

Hi John, welcome. The question is if you're willing to reflect upon it or if you want to just repeat it as gospel? Do you ever wonder if your view on the matter is as clear as it can be? In terms of knowing as well as feeling, intuiting and seeing? ***It's an ongoing process of refinement - a full ...

Re: The nature of consciousness

Ahh, The nature of consciousness. First back to square ONE. ONE absolute no-thing, no attributes, no variations, formless: being. Being is also un-manifest pure intelligence. Not intelligent, but intelligence. Intelligent requires form. Pure intelligence becomes aware of itself and becomes conscious...

Re: Hi. I just joined the forum today.

My (John's) voice on the video is my own unaltered. I used a software application called MorphVOX that modifies my voice. I raised the pitch with a teenager setting for Mac, and modified it in various ways for the other three characters. Doing so made editing much easier, rather than having real cha...

Re: Hi. I just joined the forum today.

Thanks for not being a part of the ugly mix. ;-) And I approve of your reasons. It’s fun to talk scripture for a change. I have to inject more info about your Jesus comment – about things ending badly for him. The “badly” is a fabrication of Christians (as you say Jesus was not — good comment) who c...

Re: Hi. I just joined the forum today.

I'm comfortable with your quotes from Scripture. It has it's place. The stance I've chosen to take is not make those references. The moment I validate ideas from Scriptural quotes, I put myself in a box which I feel is not fair to reasonable rational folks who are new to personal transformation. If ...

Re: Hi. I just joined the forum today.

Hi movingalways. I'll bet I could dig deeper into past posts. The search word "who" may help. I'm sure there are "perfect fits." As you know, its just a matter of emphasis. Who is so easily lost in identity's cause-effect: especially the intellect. Everything becomes so elegantly...

Hi. I just joined the forum today.

Hi. I just joined the forum today. In reading through the posts, I considered what might be most valuable for me to contribute. I see three things that could add to the forum: 1. More consideration of “who” is speaking as the posters. As there is one all-person who is and does the universe, and who ...
