What is God to you?

something

I honestly don't think God exists in any explainable sense.

That's God. The unexplained and intangible. God is reality, and all possible realms of possibility or something.

God is the person that speaks to me every night. God is the one that controls me.

God to me is a swirling mass of chaos. And around this chaotic force, the universe bends and swirls to its will.

The spark with which our existence was ignited. Not a being so much as a primal source of energy. I mean the entirety of the universe (which is expanding infinitely) had to get a jump start from something right?

>>17058489
How can you not see that you are the same as that chair you sit on, or anything else you observe. Absolutely all that existence entails, is but existence itself. How can anything be saparate from that which puts all to being.

No matter how different anything might seem from eachother it is still the same Self/God expressing itself as all the different forms. The belief that you are something separate from all is simply the great illusion the universe plays on itself to get lost in itself.

The universe is all there is, it's both everything and nothing at the same time, which is why the universe is infinite.

This understanding can only be known and felt through experience. It comes the moment the ego has realized it's true self through meditation and deep contemplation on reality. The moment the ego has seen and understood it's real self, it will simply vanish, as it then thoroughly sees it's own falsehood completely.

It can also be understood intellectually, but that will not bring on the profound effects of the experience itself, as it will simply be understood from the egos point of view and will simply become one of it's many beliefs about the universe keeping you in duality. Knowledge can only be reached through experience, there is no other way.

If you truly want to see, you must be completely sincere in your search for truth. Do not try to reach it through anything but your own efforts, as that will simply lead you astray. No holy texts, nor saint can ever give you truth, it is only reached by yourself.

I hope I was somehow able to give you some understanding on the matter, peace and all things great.

the gods are us.

We are the gods now.

Not to be confused with God. The Creator of All.

The gods were the Aliens of the Pagan Pantheon from the Old World of Mesopotamia.

The Jews are False Monotheists who have chosen one of the Pagan gods as their Lord.

Jews worship Enlil as God.

But he is actually one of the Anunna gods.

The Elohim are the Anunnaki.

See here you go again mixing together Anunnaki mythology with the Creator of All.

And you are so brainwashed you are probably not even aware you are doing it.

The is a copy of the Sumerian text and they tell us that we are made in the Image of and the Likeness of the Anunnaki.

The Anunna gods came here and found a primitive primate humanoid that they blended their DNA with.

That is not creation, its Manipulation.

We are an emergent emanation of the creation of the universe.

Like the Anunnaki are.


.....
Enki to his brother responded: Not slaves, but helpers is my plan!
The Being already exists! Ninmah was saying. To give more ability is the plan!
Not a new creature, but one existing more in our image made! Enki with persuasion said,
With little change it can be achieved, only a drop of our essence is needed!
A grave matter it is, it is not to my liking! Enlil was saying.
Against the rules of from planet to planet journeying it is,
By the rules of to Earth coming it was forbidden.
To obtain gold was our purpose, to replace the Father of All Beginning it was not!
After Enlil thus had spoken, Ninmah was the one to respond:
My brother! Ninmah to Enlil was saying,
With wisdom and understanding has the Father of All Beginning us endowed,
To what purpose have we so been perfected, else of it utmost use to make?
With wisdom and understanding has the Creator of All our life essence filled,
To whatever using of it we capable are, is it not that for which we have been destined? .....

conciseness of the highest level. God is a label

we live in a finite world and therefore digital (this has been proved by science) the real world is analogic and therefor infinite. If god exists he must be the source of that world.

tl;dr we don't even get to have a god in our reality :(

I think God is probably something alien. Like, maybe it (he? She? I feel like such terms don't apply here) isn't malevolent per se, but it doesn't really understand what it's like to be human. It doesn't always have our best interests at heart, but it isn't 'out to get us'. God just does its own thing most f the time.

Then Moses said to God, "Behold, I am going to the sons of Israel, and I will say to them, 'The God of your fathers has sent me to you.' Now they may say to me, 'What is His name?' What shall I say to them?" God said to Moses, "I AM WHO I AM"; and He said, "Thus you shall say to the sons of Israel, 'I AM has sent me to you.'" God, furthermore, said to Moses, "Thus you shall say to the sons of Israel, 'The LORD, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you.' This is My name forever, and this is My memorial-name to all generations.…"

here we have Jesus saying...
"God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”

>>17057850
God, to me, is an extra dimensional cosmic super-organism. It is the mind, or soul, of the universe. By that I mean that it is the creator and sole inhabitant of the universe. All the matter in the universe are incarnations of its body, and the perceptual awareness in the universe is its mind. Some incarnations have more complex perceptual awareness than others, some exist in spacial dimensions and across time beyond our reckoning. Its purpose is to understand everything by experience. Our purpose as an incarnation of God is to do whatever it is that we are going to do, everything needs doing and we are all doing our bit, whether we like (or acknowledge) it or not.
When we die, we experience our lives from outside of time and from the perspective of everyone/ everything we ever interacted with. We then probably wish we'd been a nicer. Then our individual perceptions merge with the collective unconscious, or God-mind.
The gods of old (inc. YHWH) are/ were aliens (potentially non-physical or extra dimensional) that interacted with ancient Man and we gave them undue credit. They may have genetically manipulated us 'in their image' from native apes but the divine spark was not from them, it is the God-mind.

God IS.

When people say that God created the Universe, and are asked "where is he/she?", they answer "He is". This isn't just an Abrahamic deal, many older religions have a God of creation, of the Universe that is all in itself. I personally take it that God was the accumulated mass of all existence self, and creating everything by way of the Big Bang, and constituting all that is. They say (s)he is in all of us, (s)he is around us, everywhere. Created in God's likeness, of his like, of his flesh and blood. This doesn't mean the disintegration of God's grand conscious, or our lack of personal consciousness, but that we are a part of something greater than ourselves. That the Universe is all as it should be solely because it IS.

digital implies the laws of this universe are discrete which is false because they are continuous

If you wanna be an asshole at least read the thread
If anything it's a fairly tale to satisfy our questions about creation

The christian deity? A man, nothing more any nothing less, governing simply his chosen people and none else. He created a garden on a planet where land had been claimed, he tried his hand at mortal, physical life and succeeded, modeling his creation from the best designs that had been. And so were born the hebrew men and women.

Deities, as we know those of the upper planes are just as we are, but with influence, albeit subtly and through mediums, over the lower planes. There are many a number of them, but they are many fewer than even our score. As they had made of our Mann to serve, but had not counted for the ideal of thought. And so we were freed, as our minds took shape and chose weather we were to give in or not.

This was the age of man, the beginning of the war of ideas. One that has yet to see an end.

Don't you mean "who?" He is the closest friend I'll ever have, and the funniest person I've ever known. He's the first plenary expansion of Krishna. In His impersonal form, He is All-pervasive in the material realm as gravity. He is the great serpent Ananta-Sesa, whose countless heads sing the countless glories of Sri Vishnu - never ending, never repeating. Upon those infinite hooded heads rest the countless material universes, and within each universe Sesa Naga holds the stars, planets, and all other planetary bodies on their tracks.

He is Lakshman, the fiercely loyal yet humble younger brother to Rama-deva, who was so unassuming that he could not answer whether certain jewelry had dropped from the kidnapped Sita as He had never risen his gaze past her feet. He is the one who put the welfare of the citizens of Ayodhya before His own, as he interrupted the privacy of Sita and Rama - though moments before He swore to punish and kill whoever did just that - to warn of coming danger to the city.

He is Nityananda Prabhu, who was so eager to spread the glory of the Maha-mantra, that he cajoled the worst criminals to chant, though they struck Him with clay pots and threatened his life. And when Lord Chaitanya was transfixed by rage, ready to strike the gangsters down with Sudarshan Chakra for their assault on His devotee, it was Lord Nityananda who begged for their lives, reminding Chaitanya that in this age His weapon is sankirtan and the Maha-mantra.

And primarily, my God is Lord Balarama-deva, who was irritated by having to always defer to Rama-deva in Their previous avatars, and so was determined to be the ELDER brother of Krishna. Still as loyal to His brother, Bala-deva was impetuous, and quick to anger, killing Rukmini's brother (His brother-in-law) over insults and a bad chess match. He often acts as a Devil's Advocate for Krishna (He mentored Duryodhana in the mace, the main rival to Arjuna and the Pandavas), yet would never go against Him.

God is reality.

Reality is the screen in which the play of infinite forms happens. Reality is both the form and the canvas of form.

So in other words, God is all.

All is God.

There is only God.

You are as much God as is a cigarette butt on the sidewalk.

Use the word "God" as a mantra. Repeat it over and over again with the idea that anything you experience, anything that comes into your awareness is God, until it occurs to you that all is God and there is only God.

Your breath is God. The words you read are God. The thoughts you think are God. The walls around you are God. The air you breathe is God. God God. God God.

I think that's more-or-less it, yeah.
>The Tao that can be spoken is not the eternal Tao.

It's a combination of things, really. The human tendency to recognize patterns (and other people as conscious beings) leads us to anthropomorphize objects, animals, forces of nature, and even abstract concepts. Thus derive the concept of gods.

God in the singular proper noun has been described as omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent. This can only occur if this God is everything (as the Universe is everything and everywhere that exists). Science itself includes many "laws" or observations about clear facts about the way the Universe works, inevitable causes and effects. I think that if anything was "God," it would be those inevitabilities. Gravity, motion, thermodynamics, chemical makeup, perhaps even life itself.

Creation of the universe is spontaneous.

The creator of light is created and after that the source of darkness is created.

In the universe we have two major consciousness:
Creator of Light
Source of Darkness

Each of them creates counltess of souls.
Creator of light create most planet and stars.
Source of darkness corrupts them by creating black holes.

God (Yahweh) from the old testament is just one of many dark souls that can manipulate great ammounts of dark energy, here they were called gods for thousands of years.

God in the new testament is a high evolved light soul that the creator of light asked to be here to guided Jesus and all of us to heal earth (which also have a spirit on it.)

Yahweh technically speaking is also a alien that manifest itself in a non physical way from the astral world (dark spiritual world). He and his angels are all dark souls, not actually evil, but not pure love either.

>>17064514
>not pure love either.
Anyone that thinks themselves to be this is delusional.

The human need to have someone else to blame and ask for things. Nothing but a psychological need. Think about it. People pray when they feel bad about something, but the effect is the same that talking to someone else has, but amplified because of his/its definition.

Btw, this is the thing I belive in. I'm just a human and the concept of an all-mighty creature or whatever is out of our capacity of understanding.

>>17064736
Also the easy explanation ancients had for things that are now common and the things that our understanding is not enough.

Have you seen the fourth dimention? (Fxck, I'm on /x/. Some idiot will say yes... Screw it) Well, imagine you are a bidimentional creature. You can only see in the X and Y axis but cannot percieve an up or down. So imagine a tridimentional creature invades your home. You would only percieve the contact points because for you, there is no up and down. This is the thing why I think humans can have opinions, but none of them are accurate. The concept of a God is over our collective understanding and may or no be a human invention.

I think of Shcrodinger's cat every time I think about this. I haven't seen God but hus concept is so broad that I cannot define it's existance or the lack of it

There are two gods, and all they do is play chess with our lives.

You are God. You are the only thing that exists in the universe, the universe itself, all the intervening void, everything beyond the boundaries of the universe, and the perfect emptiness that it all sprang from. This is all a dream, one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively in an infinite variety of ways, and that consciousness is you. Existence is an ongoing process of awakening to who you are, which is the most perfect bliss you could give to yourself. You've actually already reached a point at which your godhood is fully realized and time is no longer a constraint to you; that part of you looks back at you now in the distant past and guides you. That's your higher self. If you're reading this, it's because your higher self decided that you should.

All is within; nothing is without.

Everything is a self referential part of the whole. The structure in the tiniest grain of sand is analogous to the laws that hold together your body and even your hopes and dreams. They are literally the exact same thing. When you start seeing the beautiful fractal nature of the universe in every single thing you experience, not just physically or visual but in every possible sense. It then becomes undeniable that everything is following a curious plan and that we are too small to see more than repeating hinted glimpses of it at any moment in time.

reality is not still there, you have changed reality, now you are in a timeline where this person is dead. for that person reality is also gone. if you killed yourself, from that perspective your reality would also end, but your consciousness would return to the eternal god, in actuality.

God is everything.
I believe the creation of our universe isn't by some being in the sky or whatever.
I believe that God is everything, from the workings of micro to macro. We live as God individually, and just like a flower grows out of the ground and blossoms, it is acting as an expression of the universe. Just as we live our lives, we too are like the flower (us), blooming and growing (our ability to think for ourselves and create, and freedom).
It is the force that created everything, and it will be the force that eventually ends everything, but again everything will rise, and then fall.

You need to seek Jesus Christ now before it's too late. Loving God does not want anyone go to hell. Hell is not meant for us. God prepared Hell for angels that sinned. God set the price of sin. the price for sin is damned to hell. Hell is not meant for us.
Satan is not ruler of Hell. Satan's in not hell yet. He's lurking around on Earth right now!

The allfather who wrote the Havamal, who birthed our protector Thor, the wisest of the supreme beings, and friend to all man

nothing, really. though it's a concept that makes it hard to communicate with other people effectively, because bringing up god shuts down a lot of conversations when it's used as an easy answer.

I'll tell you what God isn't: naked Megan Fox turning into a monster

God is the key to your self actualization. The grand creator is just a metaphor, like everything else in the bible, which was people of that time period's attempt at showing people through fantastical stories how to live a compassionate and meaningful life but people took all of the stories literally and fucked the world up.

There is no one god ruling over all of us. You are the creator, destroyer, and sole inhabitant of your own reality. Meaning is man made, so go make it.

I once talked to something that told me that the universe in its entirety, and everything in it is God. That there is no single entity, nothing higher, the universe is a superorganism, a cell and everything in it are the organelles withing that cell. The natural processes of nature, of the universe are god. it's not alive but it's living. There's no conscience that governs anything just the physical laws that limit the universe exist, and they exist purely randomly.

But then again, I did talk to something else that claimed it was God. It felt like I was under the gravitational pull of something like Jupiter. Well whatever it was, it was an asshole and not worth a minute of anyone's time.

Christianity is a good grounding factor for spirituality for a lot of people but everyone's experience is different and you can't refer to one as a cover for all.

>>17057850
Oh look another one of "these discourses".
God is the Final Reality.
Let us not be irrational, let us utilize our faculties of Reason instead of searching in vain for meaning among the Irrational.

Christianity offers an answer to the deepest questions of Mankind and doesn't diminish Man himself nor the physical and immaterial.
The answers and the connections and conclusions are coherent, intelligible, and Truthful.
We have good and sufficient reason to place our revelations in this dimension.

The Occult is irrational and answers nothing but you seek meaning so you try.
Eastern philosophy and paganism rejects reason as well.
Atheism shuts itself down before it begins.
Judeo-Christianity is Truth and Actuality.

Honestly a dick head and a smart asshole if he truly exists. I can tell already that if he exists, he has abandoned us as he's tried to help humanity plenty of times. I don't blame him. I too would get tired. Especially with the way humans interact today and with what society does to each other. #fuckparis

The same people who say #noracism and then turn around to say "fuck white people, #blacklivesmatter"

I don't blame God one bit. This isn't even scratching the surface of human idiocy

God is the Self ( Ātma ) - the Self is pure Consciousness ( caitanya ) of which the world is merely a projection of / from / on

The One True Lord of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

The "answer" of whatever we can't explain

False/fake/failed. As in I don't believe in god, but if he is real, he sure isn't doing a good job of fixing the world or making me want to subscribe to him
>Inb4 ERMAGHERD EDGY

I find the belief in god silly at best. Is there more out there? Sure there is just look at how much of space we've discovered, and that's almost nothing.

Do people really think they were put on this earth to wash dishes and have kids? I find it funny the people with the most minuscule lives are the ones who hold on to god's plan for them.

>>17058489
smoke more weed.
god is himself, his will, the nothingness, outside and inside all things, given energy in places along itself to condense into matter and such
as well as he is that, he is us, our view, and our connection; our ability to share our viewpoints.
as well as those, he is the good itself: the beautiful, the delicious, the enjoyable in any way.

NOTHING WE the HUMANS created good because we need something or In what to believe whe we need It when we sick or when someone closer to us die good doesn't exist

God is a crutch. I get the human need for it and have accepted that it's just part of life as a human. God is an easy way to look up at the stars and wonder whats out there. God is an easy way to tell your kid that yes one day they will die but it's okay because no one really dies, they just shed the mortal coil and move onto something else.

what does
"its okay jimmy, hes in anime now."

Dah
We created BUT he doesn't exist it's the same because , at the end it's just when we need it when we believe and when we remember of him because someone says its good and can do miracles , and when we don't need it anymore we forget it so that's why we created but he doesn't exist in a fiscal way

>>17057870

>>17089268

more like didnt care to.
i can come up with a thousand different explanations for where the universe came from. and My god is real, thank you very much. the nothingness that permeates existance is immutable, unchanging, and indefatigable.

and for anyone who wants the other descriptions of what people think god is:
the universe is either:
the physical space that we inhabit
OR
our personal description of it, that which we can hear and smell and see etc, that which we know and that which we remember.
(>you will never be able to prove that your universe is the same as my universe, either one.)
the omniverse is either:
all physical spaces, continuous(i guess this would still be universe) or seperate, when viewed in totality
OR
all descriptions of every viewpoint, combined and shared, and the connection that allows us to share these descriptions, and know that they are coming from a viewpoint separate from our own
(>regardless of what you believe, the omniverse is the same)
universe is guaranteed (both) , omniverse is not, but is extant anyway.
>there are actually people who feel the need to complicate this further.

>>17057850
Personally, I think god is the need for a spiritual connection. God is the feeling that drives people to pray or read scripture or whatever. When you try to please god, you're actually appeasing your own need to feel connected to the world somehow.

The universe.
The universe is God and it created you and me.
Loving God means loving yourself and everything around you as we are all part of the same universe.
The universe exists without bias.
It is both evil and good.
The universe is in all of us, therefore, we are all God. Or at least a little bit of it.

Unconditionable Love. That voice that, no matter how much you fail, says "It's ok. Try again". That warm feeling that comes in waves of warm energy when you're crying and puts a smile in your face and makes you feel warm before you notice.

An imaginary friend for stupid people.

Freud may have had mommy issues, but he was on to something with his super ego, ego, id theory.

I've had experiences whilst tripping on shrooms involving direct communication with my higher and lower self.

People hear voices in their head and assume its god, or satan, or angels or monsters or what-fucking-have-you.

It never occurs to them that the voices belong to them, even though they might sound a bit different.

God the Father, Jesus the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

Super ego (tells us right from wrong), Ego (the part of our personality that we actively think and make decisions with), and Id (our animal instincts)

You see that law of three reflected in all of nature:

Solid, Liquid, Gas

the moral pillar (solid and unquestionable), the present mind (changing shape to fit whatever 'container' it is placed into), the animal instincts and urges (coming and going as rapidly and formlessly as the wind. unbound by societal law and truly free)

Positive (proton), neutral (neutron), negative (electron)

Lawful, Neutral, Chaotic

Basically God is a shirking of personal responsibility.
We are all luminous beings of thought and we directly influence each other. It's in our best interest not to be huge dicks.

Just don't be an asshole to other people and be honest with yourself.

>>17073720
which god is that?

God is LOVE. God is Jesus Christ, Lord and Savior.
The ONLY way to eternal life is to confess with your mouth and believe with your heart that Jesus Christ is Lord, then you shall be saved. The word of God clearly says in John 1:17 "for the law was given through moses but GRACE AND TRUTH through JESUS Christ. Dont you understand that the ten commandments were there as a mirror for man to see that no matter what good deed we do- we're still sinners and need to come to an end to ones self. Jesus fullfilled the law on our behalf and all you need to do it believe that Jesus did die for your sins, he rose and you better believe he's coming back.

Read the book of revelations Jesus is coming and will righteously judge ALL according to whose names are on the book of life. And remember what the SON of God said, "I have told you these things so that in me you may find peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart I have overcome the World." John 16:33
This world will either be the closest to hell you'll ever experience or the closest thing to heaven youll EVER get to experience. The gift of eternal life is free and the glory and victory belong to Jesus Christ, King of kingsand Lord of lords. Its never to late receive Jesus Christ as savior and to inherit the kingdom of Heaven.

I get that you're giving a sound warning but my friend didn't turn to her faith in a vain attempt to cope with mortality, she was born into it and has always been faithfully observant. I doubt she will have any doubts after a lifetime of that reinforcement, but I am going to do my best to support her faith now when she needs it to hold.
Besides, didn't you see The Matrix? If it looks real and feels real then what's the difference if it is false comfort? It is comfort. She accepts the reality she has been presented with for her whole life. Why would she ever deny herself that choice of lived reality now?

practicality is recognizing it as more than just a comfort.
it is an actuality.
anyway, didnt meant to lump you in with the scum who believes that nothing is nothing/everything is nothing, instead of nothing being everything, which is the truth.
have you ever done deep breathing excercises? its easier to instill belief in yourself when your pumped full of spirit energy because belief has power.
>peoples face when i believe you get whatever heaven you want
i don't even think you need to work for it, but i still meditate/work out and practice good morality outside of the specific fetishes and avarice that i want to take with me.

Mostly this. Though I don't like how this viewpoint has been described as another sect within the pantheon of religions.

Reality as we see it is referred to as the wheel of Samsara, in which all material plays out its role in creation-destruction then creation into something else.

Whereas God is all of this, the one where it all comes from, I believe we are all a thought of God, and reality is God's dream.

The dog of God is a god among dogs for dog is God spelled backwards.

God to me is a person that writes a book. And has me reading it, enjoying myself, and delivers the most messed up punchline ever, "your momma is a slut, get over it, but mine still ain't and i can prove it." And Has me saying, damn it, you got a point, you win!

0000 B.C: Thus the great tide turns over the hot molten rock and out from the final hardening of the ooze pops the tale of new beginnings upon a future nurtured land of an hopeful green earth.

"And you shall see in many colors", spoke the lord to the primordial gloo.
"For with every eye you have my bright light shall forever shine". spoke the lord, nothing more.

Ommmm the creator hummed for his job was now done!

The currents of time wade to and fro, upon the present moment 2015 A.D

THE PEOPLE CRIED IN CONFUSION, BELLIES FULL OF WINE!!!!. FOR ALWAYS THE QUESTION WHY, ENTERS THEIR CLOUDED MIND!

Thus the lord spoke, its voice shaketh all matter from within the land... the sages laugh an belly's laugh, the saints cry in reverence for the first time sight's been seen. thou father who art in heaven, thine holy beat move's the feet of mighty men into dance as the women and her beauty sing and cheer all year , thine chests bared opened for all lovers to see , oh the scents to breathe! heart emoticon

evil now kills its self. through the will of blood and gore outshines the peace of yesterdays yore for all human things to finally adore

Ommmm the lord Hummed for it's work has been done!

>"God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness"
FTFY. In the beginning of Genesis, even the oldest surviving versions we have, he is speaking in plural, as in more than one god.

>inb4 "hurr durr the royal 'we'
The royal "we" was first used in the 1200s by officials of high office (such as the pope) and was regarded as "god and I..." to denote oneself as speaking with/for god. God wouldn't need to use the royal "we", as it would be redundant saying "we, myself and I, ...". Any argument that Genesis was actually the first use of the royal "we" is merely a hand waving attempt to deny it's established origins in polytheism.

An outdated superstitious construct that, if proven real, would garner no more a following than would the most bossy spoiled child who cannot get its way.

People fight and kill one another over it, mutilate each others' genitals for it, subjugate and enslave other portions of the populace for it. Scientific inquiry was deemed heretical because of it.

All religions claim to be peaceful and non-harmful. What does human history look like if not an eon-long sacrifice to an apathetic-yet-vengeful, cares-more-about-what-people-do-behind-closed-doors-than-actual-good-deeds god?

And when one dares to have the slightest doubt, to actually ask "Who? What? When? Where? Why?" they are scorned for not having enough faith. That is to say, for not abdicating what it means to be human—curiosity, independence, desire, intellect.

For being one of God's sheep.

Your post alluded to the omnidirectional middle ground/the space that opens when duality closes.

Also I meant to put another "is" in my last post.

I guess it's still sort of hard for me to take...

>>17104784
Right...ok, I guess.

But I don't know what the stuff you are typing is from. I'm not enjoying my ignorance on this but what exactly is the source of this stuff that I apparently alluded to, if you don't mind taking the time to explain/link something about it?

>>17104789

>>17104800
Just the one I typed earlier really. But that does encompass the others as well I suppose, the same as it encompasses everything.

>>17104810
So just the one then? "Has a personality"?

>>17104888
Perhaps if you actually typed and explained what is your are trying to get across I'd understand what you are saying.

But just typing
>So just the one then? "Has a personality"?
With no explanation of what you mean by that or how you came to conclude that was what I was saying, I am just wondering what the fuck is this guy talking about, why can't he use clear English?

Just explain your shit in several paragraphs instead of trying this whole sentence question-answer-question-answer shit.

I persisted with your bland as fuck statements thinking perhaps you had something worth saying but really I am getting the impression that you are a smartass dick hiding behind obtuse bullshit to make yourself feel wise and grand.

>>17104899
No I'm just a guy that appreciates simplicity.

But since you took the time to write a full reply, I'll admit that yes, I understood that you meant your everything/nothing duality post as pure concept.

When people talk about the Tao, or the nameless Tao, or the Tao that cannot be named, or the Tao that ceases to be the eternal Tao in the very act of having been named, they're alluding to a concept I call "fundamental reasoning." The primary mass of Eastern mysticism basically berates every student in a manner similar to how I just did you to drive home the point that things aren't as simple as we want them to be. Thousands of enlightened masters across the ages have sat and watched their students fumble and falter, trying to make sense of something that might not actually make any sense at all because they master realized the cognitive effect their statements from authority had on their student. Eastern mysticism is explicitly set up such that the student MUST learn for themselves rather than being told all the time. I'm not saying this to tell you that I'm not willing to tell you what I mean, but just to give context on Eastern mysticism and the concept of intangibility.

The same sort of principle applies to the duality-breaker you posted. You're either a Schizofaggot that doesn't know how to express themselves or else you've intentionally posted a koan of sorts. It echoes the same sort of reasoning that Eastern mysticism tries to passively beat into its students.

Saying everything is nothing, or that life is death or any of the other common apparent contradictions of the far East, is a means to force a willing mind to contemplate beyond the concept of duality and "opposites." Rather than right or wrong, Eastern mysticism says that everything "is" or "just is" or "simply is."

Basically I was just testing the associations your mind has readily available to see if you understood the concept of unknowability/intangibility easily.

>>17104899
>With no explanation of what you mean by that or how you came to conclude that was what I was saying
This is why I asked your age; anyone older than around seven or eight out to be able to figure out my meaning from pure interaction. You're using complex grammar which indicates you're at least 20 so I have to assume you're dealing with a pretty intrusive mental block that relates to interaction in the context of conversations.

Most people don't CONSCIOUSLY expect people to explain their intent explicitly. The only people I've met that seemed to expect me to state my intent while talking to them are these moronic hive mind cunts that don't know how to save the world, let alone the universe or multiverse. Last contact I had with them, they were anti-identity and trying to expand without compromising their utter lack of notable ideals.

If you feel anything else is unclear, just ask.

>>17104975

Or. OR. Or.

People who don't want to trudge through a mile of rhetoric and side-mouth talk to get to the core of a conversation.

People rather bored with the concept of others trying to be clever and make comments that cause one to try and parse absolutely every nuance and word to every single end-meaning.

It's exhausting and mindbogglingly boring.

When you have to shoot...shoot! Don't talk.

which you do, and should try to not do it, or enjoy it completely.
both work.

important:
how i know that the mind is capable of recieving information from the spirit:
the information of the spirit is required to continue the existance of the essense contained within a mind or soul, in relation to its surroundings.
this essense is stored within the mind, which is a thing capable of experience, a phenomenon of existance brought about by stimuli recieved by the mind,
such as language.
remember a beautiful song,
or a descriptive story, full of graphic language to associate, rendering with ability the phenomenon itself through imagination.
the essence of existence is stored within the spirit, and it can be transfered through phenomenon.
anyway, as the mind is in control of the body, as such, >how could the spirit hope to ever retain itself without supplying information to the mind.
i recently opened my full mind to the benefit of the spirit.
although this was after secluding it(perhaps delusionally) after realizing that my mind is spirit, having had already opened myself to it..
call me the program hunter.
