The Myth of Reality

[gloryoskie]

You go in through one hole, you come out through three holes.
Once you're inside you're ready to go outside, but once you're
outside you're still inside. What is it?



Riddles are fun, they get more difficult as we proceed!

Deja vu is merely the brain's misfiring of direct perception*
as memory sensation , the rest of it mixes myth and pseudoscience
with a smattering of believable "facts" or folklore, presented
as awe inspired secret knowledge.

Its the same formula employed by our overlords to control us.

Myth of reality is a pretty notion, with not even enough hook
to hang my hat on.

Good thread, easy stuff, really.

The world is very complex huge organism, and it live in complete symbiosis. The human its virus-like cancer, and he destabilize the earth's total symbiosis (this is due to natural disasters). What is worse, there is no medicine. We are pumping resources of the earth, and we do not understand that we will destroy ourselves and our host cell, which is planet earth.

"Virus cell is abnormal. Just as a human being compared to the rest of the animal kingdom (intellectually)."

Viruses are not explicitly organisms, because outside of a host cell they are non-living particles. Exactly like a human being. Man also imagines his own world so big. In reality, we are the class of micro-macro. If even that. I never thought further.. So thats my myth.

"The human its virus-like cancer, and there is no medicine."

(expanding cancer)

Of course, its not clearly, but like I said, it's very complex..

[Weird]

my guess it is in support that the reality we experience is not verbatim with the reality of the world as it lies outside our perception

our minds are filters and thus reality is relative to the filters capacities

relativity is an important concept in understanding everything from physics to human nature

removing it might make for interesting concepts and conversations but that is about where it ends

this is very true, without relativity, there is only ONEness, Nothingness, Everything as Itself, or whatever anyone likes to call it.

...in other words, there are no distinctions, to tell the difference between everything.

and if we remove relativity, we can talk about what's ACTUALLY there in the primary reality, but that's about all that we can do in this world that we share, where we can only communicate in relative terms.

We can't know what is there in the primary reality, since to know we have to use our in-direct senses, with which all we can do is point at what's there.

Many believe and assume that what they think is there is actually there, and this is obviously not so.

==================================

Direct consciousness of the primary reality is possible, since we are elements of the absolute Consciousness/Being/Everything There IS, but this lies outside of our perceptions and our self-mind finds nothing there to pay attention to.

Since we are so incredibly hypnotized by our perceptions, we actually believe that what we perceive is direct, well, at least most of us do, and this is what actually gets us into so much trouble and leads to never-ending suffering and a never-ending struggle to survive as the "self" that we believe we are.

This attempt at self-survival will fail, sooner or later

...but we do try quite hard

We obviously only identify with and are attached to a bunch of concepts, and this is what we actually consider our "self" to be, which includes believing and assuming that we are our body, thoughts, emotions.

These are false beliefs and assumptions.

Until one actually becomes aware of what one IS, self-survival is the only activity that exists in one's experience.

There is NOTHING outside of it.

Why?

Because the primary question asked by your self-mind is:

What does this circumstance mean for-me?

Everything is perceived, interpreted, and given meaning by the self-mind in relation to the "self."

Anyone that is not aware of this, all you have to do is observe how on a moment to moment basis everything you perceive and interpret in your experience relates to the "self" that you believe and assume that you are.

reality is a algorithm

“Somewhere, right now, this could all be happening”

First figure out the differences between smart smart dumb and dumb dumb smart.


Then after major surgery determine if that really happened or if it was just an aberration of perception

ekaṁ sad viprā bahudhā vadanti -Rig Veda


There is one (ekam) Reality (sat)

about which vibrant persons (viprā)

in various ways (bahudhā) speak (vadanti).

 

[art.spliff]

 

[flylowgethigh]

^^ Yeah, that was reality! ^^

ekaṁ sad viprā bahudhā vadanti -Rig Veda



Those vibrant observers of the same reality have the inputs imposed on their own unique past experience, which shapes the way their own perception lands.

Like the reality of landing a plane with a dead engine - either on a pasture or a mountainside. One is to worry about cows, the other goats.

I knew it.... Gypsy Nirvana is Uncle Fester's long lost child. Gypsy, you could be heir to the Adam's millions. And, that awesome house.

How about I get Lurch so's I could have a spliff roller like Snoop?

Don't forget that 33 packard V-12.

But not as cool as the Munster's ride.

In my reality, the Addams family were much cooler than the Munsters...

No comparison at all...
