No thing is doing anything. No thing is saying there is a mind, no one is saying there is no mind.

This is the truth that the 'separate self' cannot bear to notice. The 'separate self' is a reflexive responsive unitary action of the senses to stimulus. It's nothing appearing to be something which is nothing.

Generic words are ''sound'' heard as words. Sound is the effect of two material surfaces rubbing together.

The brain is the biological computer. A computer is not conscious, there is only consciousness one without a second.

The brain has no author, or creator that you can call ''a you''.

If the brain is your brain, then try recreating one ( make one from scratch)
Okay, let's say there is no mind. Well, what is it that exists? DAM exists because she cares about cats, and slaughterhouses. DAM exists because she knows she will die and cease to exist. DAM exists because she knows others exist and suffer.

When I say "knows" you could reply as is your habit, "there is no thing that knows". True. By "knows" I really mean experience, so that DAM and I experience the fact of death and nothingness. And DAM and I experience the existence and suffering of others, because here we are.

Earthquakes don’t know they kill people.

Stop pretending you know….you are not the knower, and stop pretending you speak to invisible non existent god.

If you claim to know you are alive, then what gives you the right to take away a life that is not yours.

Knowledge can only point to the illusion of nature, it has no mind to know intention.

The mind that knows intention is your own grown delusional belief….a mistake that is an unnatural function of reality.

Life fucks up sometimes, because it’s dumb and extraordinarily unintelligent….just like you dinosaur brain.

This post is for atto…who doesn’t read my posts.

What’s the difference between knowing and experience…none, they arise simultaneously one with knowing.

It’s not a “someone” who experiences knowing…you are the knowing that cannot be known.

It’s all very simple.

I didn't read much of it...as soon as I realised what it was saying...I read the first line, and that's it. . I got the gist, after reading the first line, and went no further.

So you are dead wrong, fool. I did not read it because I think it has no place on this thread.

This thread is not about the knowledge of suicide, please stop the condecending attitute. Take such knowledge to the PM option if you enjoy that sort of knowledge. Don't dump it on my thread ok...this is my thread and I will say how it is meant to go.
How is this thread "meant" 'to go'?
Well if you have anything to do with this thread, then it’s probably 210% max ..going to go terribly terribly WRONG !!

That I can guarantee.
Okay, but my question was, How is this thread MEANT to go?

An awful idea. If Joe wants to off himself, he will. Makin' it easy for him is no favor.
WHY is making it easy, supposedly, no favor?

How do you KNOW what 'joe's" circumstances ARE, FULLY?

The reality you hate just happens to be the reality I love. All the things you describe as evil are what I regard as realities greatest benefits.
Well good for fucking you. Congrats!

I have absolutely no problem that you love life. What do you want me to do throw you a fucking... HEY guys and gals, ISN'T LIFE SO WONDERFUL PARTY ?

And just so you kow...you are entitled to have your view that life has greatest benefits...just as I am entitled to have my view that life is evil...so fucking what!

I'm not the one saying to people ( you are a BAD PERSON ) just because I have a different view point.. NO... I'm a BAD PERSON for having my view aren't I ? ...go back through this whole thread, it's all written down...read the whole story about what has been said here.
There has been a deliberate attempt to inflame this thread with abusive comments about my views. And so what am I supposed to do, not react to them...dream on.
RCSaunders wrote: Sat Jul 17, 2021 1:30 pmI just do not understand why those who hate reality and their own existence so much continue to suffer unnecessarily when they do not have to. I do not believe them.
What or how other people choose to think about their life has nothing to do with you anyway, so save it, don't concern yourself too much.

What makes you think people who hate pain and suffering are suffering or hate their existence? I'm not suffering if that's what you believe.

I hate that pain and suffeiring is part of being alive, doesn't mean I am suffering, it's just something I have an opinion about. Personally, I wouldn't choose to be born, and that's my prerogative to have those thoughts, but that doesn't mean I am suffering just because I have those thoughts, which is just an opinion.
Would you choose to be born if you knew you would have a much better life than the one that you have had to endure so far?

Most human beings won't be able to work that out because most humans beings are selfish ignorant unintelligent bottom feeders that refuse to see the light, which is the universe is a gladiator war for every sentient and non-sentient form, from start to finish.
Is this WHY you were NOT able to work that out?

Does this mean, or imply, that you ACTUALLY do KNOW the 'truth of reality'?
Dontaskme wrote: Sun Jul 18, 2021 11:09 am so they indulge themselves in the pursuit of chasing pink balloons and rainbows, all their life, never-ever quite reaching beyond that horizon they constantly daydream about.
But they say "pink balloons and rainbows", or more correctly 'Heaven', is NOT found in life, but in the after-life?

But if it is 'you', who are the 'knowing', this, as can be CLEARLY SEEN, that CAN be KNOWN.

..well, certainly I must quote it in it's entirety..since u point out this is for atto.

I think this should be pertinent (btw am posting from mob. V difficult),..try.. attempt to understand, this 'God has the ability to take away pain, souls, etc...still while permitting US to perceive hardship.

It's a weird fact that when I have been thru hardship I have fought 4 my existence...whereas..once I have it easy and attempt to reflect on that hardship, I consider death.

So.

Please make an attempt to live...have a hobby, a passion, it must be in all of us, somewhere.



Agreed..perhaps like me enjoying bacon n eggs for breakfast

Can there be experience without knowing?
