Everyone is in his own world bubble

Post by unwise »

I don't know if you have ever deeply considered the fact that no one else is in the same universe as you. Each person is in a 'world bubble' that only connects with you in a mere tangential way - just brushing up against your bubble. These are not just words I am saying.

Think deeply about your own emotional/intellectual/chemical/hormonal view point.....you see the world based on your age, sex and experience - but this is not how others feel. In fact, no one feels the same exact way you do about your environment - about what is out there. It is an awesome realization to see this. You are truly the keeper of your own universe. And yet, you have nothing to do with it.

Just consider how differently you view the world now compared to when you were 10.


These are all unique ways 'god' is experiencing. How strange to aspire to be the Buddha! You will be the Buddha when that is what you have become!

Man after my own heart!

Bro, I know what you mean! unwise, eh?...on the contrary, you're one of the few people on this site who I feel actually makes sense and sticks with his points! Bravo!

Bubbles coinciding with each other in a larger bubble which we call The Universe, the "outside" being UR (ty-QRS). Moreover, if one bubble bursts, does everything else?

this is actually false. Since we are all part of the Totality, our individual experiences definitely can be experienced the same way as others. When I talk of loneliness and isolation, other people know EXACTLY how this feels. Similarly with all the other thoughts and emotions. But you are right that we're very isolated, which again, everyone knows how it feels, but can't quite seem to solve.

within the prison of dimensions and the cage of words we feed as necrophagists on our catch-penny phrases.the reality we all see and relate to - in its expansion,contraction and superimpositions - is still unexploited,undisclosed;yet whatever we demand of this 'reality' shall come out of it.if you demand of Nature,autonomy,be sure you will receive a little more then you can stomach.all this glib denial of experience is self-defeating:are you not know experiencing my knowledge via your own reasoning faculty - or are you a mackerel?

English please Bert. And your last question, 'are you not experiencing my knowledge via your own reasoning faculty' doesn't it prove my point that subjectivity is impossible in the Totality?
