This is a BING[BOT]

And what it is...
...its a robot built by the Bing company who run a search engine, to spend its existence indexing all the crap that we post on this and other forums...so that when people search for stuff...on said search engine...it actually does direct them to their desired crap.

...so, you are saying that the Bing[bot] does not recognize true prayer as being a silent submittal of ourselves to this moment or are you attempting to correctly respond as...i got nuffin; meaning - I'm not thinking...I'm not doing any unnecessary thinking to destroy this moment...?

Well said. So few remember the basics.
cogito ergo sum.

They are cogito cogito ergo sum. Which is just cowardly .

"Dixi ergo ut ego"

Came up when i typed into google translate: "I thought therefore i was"

...but it certainly does not translate back the same.
Ergo, i know no Latin!

Cogito ergo sum, so I know that I exist, but I have my doubts about the rest of you, or at least if you are real human beings. You could all be computer generated just to piss me off.

There are mystics who believe that if they learn to concentrate and meditate just right, they can make the world dissolve into nothing, Doesn't seem to be working for you guys. damn! back to meditating some more. Maybe if I think happy thoughts, - no that's for flying.

True Prayer; Wordless acceptance of the momentary reality.

Pure self-consciousness.
