GENIUS FORUMS

Just curious.

Links would be cool!

I like stuff like this, cause I'm weird like that :

Nujabes - world's end rhapsody

Nujabes - reflection eternal

Pierre Bensusan - the alchemist

Ok.

I've been doing it all the time.

Can you do it again, clearly.

Kevin can you point at Totality, so I can see what you mean.

I had interpreted it to mean that while earlier you believed in the all pervading consciousness theory, you have found the theory to be inconsistent with your experience, and now find that consciousness is a product of the conditions and is neither indestructible nor all pervading. Until you contra...

Steven - Ok.


maestro - I don't have much opinion about what I say, now, or back then, you can interpret it however you like.

pure consciousness is that which witnesses this coming and going Why does the witness not come and go as anything else? How does it witness things, you mean using senses the all pervading soul witnesses the universe? What is pure consciousness pray tell, and how did it derive its apparent indestruc...

No need to avoid it, since I do not identify with that which it forms. Yes you do for your presence here and your response to criticism with an emotive reaction are not simplistic single function biological drives necessary to maintain your existence, but the results of complex psychological proces...

This is a highly interesting thread. Yep, it is neat. You have a perception of exceptional clarity; but even you are not free. You cannot avoid your biology, and it cannot avoid forming you. No need to avoid it, since I do not identify with that which it forms. The self is an illusion, but it is on...

Interestingly Average you were yourself a proponent of the all pervading consciousness theory The following is quote from your thread ":Your Concept of Rebirth" Reality is an appearance that comes and goes, pure consciousness is that which witnesses this coming and going, while itself rem...

The obvious denial. I asked if you grok the meaning. Endorse or reject. Respond as to how you see your's as different, if you do... The usual in dialogue... actual response to points made! I don't subscribe to those philosophies, or reject them. Actually I don't give a shit about your denial of you...

Do grok "solipsism"... "idealism"... That the Berkely/Hume school is 'head up the ass' philosophy... total denial of objective reality?... I'm familiar with those philosophies, but I'm not sure what you are asking here. In which case, where did this illusion of "Average&quo...

They are experienced, but they are not defilements.

First of all it's merely your belief that reality is infinite. You have no proof. Finally: if you think that you're not modelling when you describe the Totality in words, then you're dreaming. + All models are necessarily infinitely removed from the real thing. This is because all models are finite...

Kevin Solway wrote:I'm not sure what you mean by a "finite idea".

Same as you mean by "finite model".

All models are necessarily infinitely removed from the real thing. This is because all models are finite, whereas reality is infinite. & A model can only ever approximate, and even those approximations can be entirely off the mark. So your finite idea that Reality is Infinite could be an approx...

maestro wrote:And how about the defilements (for example greed anger lust jealousy hurt pride). Have they disappeared with the ego?

The notion of ego disappeared, as did the notion of defilements.

maestro wrote:
By already realized you mean already extant?

Yep.

I was just curious about your path, I guess it was meditation (not the sitting eye closed variety either).

The only path that worked for me, was no-path.
The only type of meditation I find constructive, is no-meditation.

maestro wrote:I am guess-estimating based on your responses in this thread. And I am pretty sure you also think this is true.

My realization was simply a matter of becoming conscious of that which was already realized.

On the other hand Miki, Average seems to be saying something profound on which you seem to be projecting your own world. Average: How did you come upon your profound realization, did you follow meditation? How many years did it take. BTW the dissolution of the I and clear vision of the mental proce...

"what is the point of replacing a finite illusion with an infinite illusion?" This is the dumbest!..... So you think its all illusion. You illustrate my point. You clearly don't know the difference between illusion and reality. You clearly didn't comprehend my last post. When you figure o...

Some of what you said is similar to what I've been saying. you said in one part: "there is no I to be enlightened" which is what I have been saying as well, and have gone further. "You can not enter the gates of nirvana because the gates are imaginary, just like you ." Just how ...

vague thread is vague.

What do you teach mikiel? But if you want Enlightenment, if you want to wake up, if you want to get fried in the fire of passionate Infinity, then, I promise you: find yourself a Rude Boy or a Nasty Girl The state of mind he is selling you is the same typical state of mind: one that craves, desires,...
