Yes it does.
I do not know anything except I am known, and that which is known knows nothing.
If as I've stated knower and known are one in the same instant, then why are you now stating ''there is no knower''?
There is no Self knowing itself. Knowledge of I am is a conceptual overlay upon not-knowing I am. Beingness, or aliveness is without doubt or error, but any knowledge of aliveness is a conceptual overlay, it's the dream of separation. Aliveness does not need knowledge to exist, in the same vein a tree does not need the knowledge it is a tree to exist, it's just pure existence.Age wrote: ↑Sun Aug 15, 2021 8:02 amSee, although there is, in Reality, only One actual Thing, which is just continually changing in shape and form always, this Thing gets separated in concept only, and not by actuality, so there is an illusion formed by 'you', human beings. The human brain has the ability to distinguish, and more important here label. This ability, however, is just the natural progression of the one Thing evolving into being able to actually know thy Self.
But all of this becomes very clear and fully understood by more and more human beings as Life, Itself, continually evolves.
WHY would you feel the need to ask this question?
What exactly is a 'thought', to you?
Whose direct experience?
My MISTAKE. Better worded would be, 'If, however, those thoughts are a proper, true, and accurate representation or not is a whole other matter.
Even if this is true, then what has this got to do with what we were just talking about?
Are you able to word this in a way that a nine year old, or any one else, could understand?
NO one here ever said that 'reality is a representation'. Where did you get this false concept from?
These two sentences of yours do not even logically follow, let alone are actually true.
WHY would you resort to asking such an absurd and ridiculous thing as this?
There will be "my answer" to what, EXACTLY?
And you do not need to say anything, but you continually do.
don't talk to me about using caps, please...there's no need to go into that long drawn out activity, you already know the answer.
So, if and when what you wrote about "attofishpi" is re-read, what you were really doing was just talking about 'you', "yourself", correct?
So, who and/or what is the 'I', which you claim you know is known?
Well in my logical rational world, a question can only arise if there is the sense of separation whereby there is a questioner who is in search of an answer, assuming there is an answer. So the only question is, who wants to know. And when that can be answered, then there is no need to ask ..for one would already know the answer to who wants to know. Therefore only that one could answer.
To illustrate a point that reality is as it is,and has no need for questions.
To the question.
But I am NOT stating that there is no knower. I said what I did because you claim, "there is no knower", right?
Is this true and real or false and illusory?
NOT within the knowledge within that human body/being known here as "donataskme" there certainly is NOT.Dontaskme wrote: ↑Sun Aug 15, 2021 9:08 amThere is no Self knowing itself.Age wrote: ↑Sun Aug 15, 2021 8:02 amSee, although there is, in Reality, only One actual Thing, which is just continually changing in shape and form always, this Thing gets separated in concept only, and not by actuality, so there is an illusion formed by 'you', human beings.

NO ONE here has EVER said, stated, inferred, insisted, claimed, NOR even just implied that Life/Aliveness needs knowledge to exist. So, WHY do you continue with this fallacy?
'you', human beings do NOT need the knowledge that 'you' are human beings, to exist, but you do have this knowledge. Just like thee One and ONLY True Self never needed the knowledge of Its Self, to exist, but It now has this knowledge. Of which 'you' still do NOT YET have.
I'm talking about the one who claims to know something, including God.
I do not know who or what I knows except what is believed, using thought and concetual knowledge that I makes up, as and through the process of imagination. The actual I can never be an experience, nor can it be touched. In the same context there is no one in a dream.
I will repeat to you again the same response I always give you. I am known, but the known that is known does not know how or who is knowing except as believed using thought and concetual knowledge that I make up as and through the process of imagination.
I cannot explain how contradictions work, they just do.
I continue with this fallacy because this fallacy likes to continue...Seen here in another informed fallacy >

I am NOT talking to you about using capital letters. I just asked you WHY you used the 'seen' word in that sentence of yours with capital letters. Especially considering the sentence within which you used that word. If you are not able to just answer a very simple clarifying question posed to you, then if I was you I would be wondering WHY NOT, and answering.
The word 'seen' can be used in two VERY DIFFERENT CONTEXTS, so I was just seeking clarification with your capital use of that word.
A 'concept' is essentially just a thought, and obviously ANY and EVERY thought can NOT be seen, with the physical eyes. So, there is NO use stating concepts are never seen.
Therefore, my previous clarifying question.
Who and/or what is "dealing with 'knowledge' here", and that is all?
But, if and when what you wrote is re-read, what can be clearly seen is that what you were talking about 'everyone', which you clarified, includes 'you', "dontaskme".
I do not know who or what I knows except what is believed, using thought and concetual knowledge that I makes up, as and through the process of imagination. The actual I can never be an experience, nor can it be touched. In the same context there is no one in a dream.[/quote]
What does "I am known", actually mean or refer to, to you?
Contradictions exist when human beings say things that oppose, or are inconsistent, within themselves.
Yes, and by the way, a mirror is obvious not empty or devoid of EVERY thing.
What, EXACTLY, is all I, supposedly, basically need to know?
But, there is ONLY One thing that can be KNOWN, for sure, anyway.
I do not know why I use caps, it just happens to be an option, caps or lower case, what ever comes out is what comes out, I do not really question why what ever comes out comes out, it's not at all important to me whatsoever.Age wrote: ↑Sun Aug 15, 2021 9:56 am

Don't sweat it then, it's no skin off my nose. It doesn't affect me here, it's not a life threatening event for me here, you there informing me, you have no idea why I used caps. So the whole issue is irrelevant to me.
That's what I said, and now you just confirmed to yourself what you already knew.
If there is no use, then stop stating concepts are never seen. Parrot.
I mean knowledge. The knowledge that fire is hot and will burn you is known. It's not hard to understand that concepts are known.
The one who claims to know knowledge.
