GENIUS FORUMS

Where's Kevin?

What do you mean? I meant that what Dan said was perfectly reasonable, not that the behaviour that he described was perfectly reasonable, in case that's what you're amused by. I raised the issue in the first place only because I thought that it was one that was amenable to argument, but I'm happy to...

You see Dan, this is what happens when people don't understand each other -> "Thought is the problem" (lol)

Let-go-of-my-ego!

I like all of Dan's videos. Thanks!

How the f**K do you know whether an individual is unconscious or not? The only unconsciousness you experience is your own.

There's no challenge for the new understanding simply because of that very reason - it's new understanding. It's not unlike a person growing an extra 3 inches. Does the 3 inches challenge the previous height? No.

Define: confusion, please.

This thread started out so well... What happened? :(

Answer: geniuses happened! :D

Interesting.

Oops! ~ Tomas - how do you feel about it?

Dan, do you not like a$$holes because you don't like your-self? (Get it? lol)

What is confusion and why does this state-of-mind happen to us (periodically or perpetually). For some reason, when I get confused, I slip into a state of Ultimate Reality. I no longer think about anything and I feel at peace with myself. Further, that which was confusing, no longer exists. It used ...

2 girls, 1 cup; I was told that this was a must-watch video. Unfortunately, this cannot be farther from the truth. Anyway, before I watched the video, I had constructs (abstractions) of what it was about. This is a very natural thing that occurs. So yeah, I saw the video... And that's the difference...

Where does the pleasure come from?

From that warm and fuzzy feeling inside.

LOL - you sound like that baby from Family Guy! :D

While I fully acknowledge the existence of the relative world, and marvel at the wonder of it all, I do not make of it more than it really is – an illusion. However, even though I assert that all that may be perceived by the senses is but an illusion, I also assert that that which perceives these i...

What's wrong with taking pleasure in appearances?

Vagina is such an ugly word. Qualia is much more suitable.

Don't answer that.

No - God created Adam and Eve as adults - they had two sons - that led to 6 billion pop. - etc etc etc.

Silly rabbit, tricks are for kids!

What if a person is alive because of their fantasies. You come along and take it away from them. They kill themselves. Just because you didn't know that this would happen, doesn't mean that you're not responsible, right? Perhaps we try to educate others for selfish reasons -- what do we gain from it?

Relax, it's nothing personal. I'm the one who is a little bit autistic, and has a mildly autistic child, so this issue comes to my mind often.

Ehhhh... I think that everyone's a bit autistic. I would say that it's also a compliment! :)

THIS is a dream.

That's hilarious.

Something tells me that it's a trap. Obviously, it is, but then it wouldn't be about escaping, rather it would be about concurring. The trap is there because it is that which is blocking one from understanding. If the trap catches you, then I would say that I'm not understanding what you're saying i...

Once you've seen behind the curtain it's hard to go back to how it was before. That caught my interest. Can you please elaborate? What do you mean exactly and how can you be sure that it isn't a fabrication of your imagination? I do agree that it is highly complicated and a subconscious thing, but ...
