Babies will not necessarily become critically ill if left alone or die in just a day. But again that may depend on what age you are talking about here. I will not ask sth to clarify this because if sth did attempt to answer this question but not attempt the the other two questions then that would just be another attempt by sth to side step the whole and main issue here.
In case you have completely forgotten to answer, purposely reject to answer the two questions, did not read them, or are purposely trying to circumvent AGAIN the issue here, or maybe for some other reason you will NOT answer the two questions, then here they are again. Let see if you will answer them this time:
If new born babies do not have beliefs nor make assumptions, then how do they keep living?
At what age does a body have to be when it starts believing from within, or otherwise it will stop surviving?
I underlined the two questions so that it makes them easy for sth to notice.
Because you believe and insist that we ALL MUST HAVE and HAVE TO have beliefs and assumptions otherwise we will die if we do not, then that also means that I too must have to assume and believe things also. Therefore, if you do not answer these two questions this time, to prove what you believe is absolutely true, right and correct, then I also supposedly MUST HAVE TO assume and believe the reason why sth does not answer the questions this time. The reason why sth will NOT answer these two questions is so obvious anyway, to Me already.
Although your questions have nothing to do with your beliefs, I will attempt to answer your questions.
sth is right here in that those questions have nothing to do with what is thought to be right, but those quesstions have everything to do with the belief that a person can not exist without beliefs has. And, where again did that belief come from? That belief certainly did NOT come from Me.

See that is more correct. More and new true, right and correct knowledge is found from the open Mind. Just some people need this pointed out to them more than others. If sth had been looking from the open Mind in the beginning, then the Truth here could have been spotted and seen earlier. In fact I would not have had to point out the Truth to sth if sth was not looking and writing from beliefs and assumptions.
By the way this is not about how babies are kept alive and for how long without what is necessary. This is about at what age does a human being start having beliefs and assumptions so then I will learn at what a human beings will stop existing when they do not have and maintain beliefs and assumptions, as is what is believed here.
sth
BELIEVES that every human being
has to HAVE assumptions and beliefs otherwise they will stop existing.
I THINK it is possible to exist without having assumptions and beliefs. This follows on with and fits in with everything else that I want to say in regards to how it is possible to learn how everyone could be living together in peace and harmony.
If sth is absolutely right, meaning that that unchangeable belief that we ALL will stop existing if we stop believing is absolutely correct, then what is the point of learning and knowing this here? What is it exactly that is trying to be expressed by sharing that knowledge? What will happen when that ultra informative knowledge is known, and then believed in?
sthitapragya wrote:As soon as they are able to understand cause and effect and start doing things independently, belief creeps in. It is unavoidable.
If it is true, then what is being believed here is right. And, if and when belief creeps in, is that when people can not keep existing if they stop having beliefs? Is that what is true?
sthitapragya wrote: When a child will become independent varies from child to child but essentially the more they become independent, the more refined their ability to make assumptions gets, the more independent they become.
This issue was never about when a child becomes independent. This issue is about when a child/adult will stop existing because they are not yet forming and holding onto those beliefs and assumptions.
By the way what is the age range that varies from child to child? What is the earliest and the latest age range?
So, is this what sth is affirming: the more independent one becomes, the more refined their ability to make assumptions gets, the more independent they become. Besides the fact that i think that does not logically follow, are you also saying that those assumptions mentioned here are the same as those assumptions that may or may not be true, or false, right?
And if this is the assumption that sth is making now there really is no one who knows if it is true or false because sth makes assumptions on the basis that those assumptions could be true but they could also be false. Is that right and/or could be wrong also, right?
sthitapragya wrote:It is a relationship between understanding cause and effect, knowledge, ability to make assumptions using the knowledge and independence.
Ok thanks. That is much clearer now. NOT.
sthitapragya wrote:All this however has nothing to do with your theory, which is built on beliefs. You believe that there is one mind within all people. You have no proof of that.
Do I believe that? Is sth absolutely positively sure of these four beliefs? Are these beliefs absolutely true or are only some or all of those beliefs, which are just assumptions that either may or may not be right, correct or incorrect? Or, are they assumptions which may or may not in fact be true OR false?
sthitapragya wrote: You believe I and 'I' are different.
Again sth assumptions are (or could be) absolutely and totally wrong here.
I know what the answer IS because I know the thoughts within this brain and/or body.
sthitapragya wrote: You have no proof of that.
Do you have proof that a human body will stop existing when there is no beliefs?
No proof of what exactly? If sth does not know what the difference is between I and 'I', which there would be no way of knowing because that has never been explained previously, then how in any way possibly known could sth know that I have no proof of "that", whatever that is.
sthitapragya wrote: You whole theory is based on this belief.
On what belief again? And what theory is being talked about here?
sthitapragya wrote: You refuse to consider the possibility that there is only I.
Why would sth even suggest that I refuse that possibility when that possibility has never been discussed here yet. So is this just another assumption that could be so totally wrong that this is getting unbelievable to other readers?
sthitapragya wrote: You refuse to consider the possibility that there is no mind independent of the brain even though all evidence suggests that there is no mind independent of the brain. These are beliefs of a closed mind.
By the very stupidity and nonsensical of these two statements together states for itself as proof of beliefs stopping people from learning more and anew.
Please explain how the beliefs of a closed mind stops a person from considering and seeing the that there is no mind independent of the brain?
sth wrote the statement for ALL to see that the beliefs of a closed mind stops a person from seeing and understanding that there is no mind, independent of the brain.
In case you have not noticed yet, which I find totally impossible not to see, if there is a
closed mind, then how could there also be
no mind, opened or closed, independent or dependent on the brain? If there is no mind, then there can not also be a closed mind.
Either there is a mind or there is no mind, which way would sth like it to be now?
Also would not the refusal to consider something different from a belief itself stop and prevent one from seeing and learning more and/or anew? If so, then I thought that was what I was arguing for. I thought sth began arguing for the exact opposite of this.
