nick_a i'll have a look at your thread, thanks for the link. i would say consciousness is equal to the degree of utility we make of its resource [which = 0], then that utility is governed on arbitrary factors! an infinite inverse cube. i contend that you can have such an infinite line to...

consciousness or awareness? i would think we have awareness as the only non material aspect, and that runs parallel with the workings of the brain, together they are consciousness. take the brain away and there is no consciousness. awareness needs a medium for it to become consciousness, and...

nick a please read through then view the whole, that way we may agree more than you may at first think. :) hmm, does space feel like that to you? i think we must go one step further, where you have inifnity [‘0’] and that can be manifest as consciousness. in some way then i agree, as infinity...

now your talkin’ [i.e. excellent reply]. :) its a bit like tapping your heels and thinking of home [wizard of oz]:p. math is abstract and has nothing to do with the process, it is just a way to define the expressed. without writing a few pages; you have infinity, thats all there is, all...

nick a i can see how in the context of the text it may seam depressing, however there are subtle ideas in there which bring it to life. just by saying ‘we come into this world ‘as’ 0’ i am saying that we have an infinite base. remember that i am a druid so there is a magical essence to this...

...and caste system. but yes the religion is tolerant in many ways even if hierarchic. generally speaking i go by the idea; we aint got it right as yet.

as a mathematical concept it was, what it came from is shared by many cultures. actually quite a lot of math esp the math of infinity came from india. i presume you lub the indians, a fascinating culture for sure. :)

path, hi i am asking the inquirer to observe what of love is of god and what of love is of them or the material world. of course you will then argue that all of this is still in god, to which i can them make no assessment of what god is. so i agree it is all magic roundabout stuff...

death of the Übermensch Übermensch - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Nietzsche spoke of this ‘superman’ ideal; " All beings so far have created something beyond themselves; and do you want to be the ebb of this great flood and even go back to the beasts rather than overcome man? What is...

oh, i thought the author may have wanted a more rounded view. ok debate amongst yourselves then. ps i just looked at the link from post 32, i could take it apart at the seams i am afraid, however don’t get me wrong, i have my way you have yours. buddhism offers a very advanced way to...

snoopy we all know that my freind. what i meant was; how does it stick to you, it is just an action it has no body or form etc. karma if anything is of the body, not the spirit. buddha can say what he wants he is just another Übermensch [wiki it], reality is not entirely composed of...

path, hi . . i would call that ‘bliss’ and see it in quite a buddhist/druidic context, but i see no reason why it cannot be god ~ if you god is universal. mast christians argue against such a thing as it is the very basis of paganism; universal spirit manifesting in multiple ways and in all...

nick a would you say that the world of forms has purpose? i wonder if evolution is a way of bringing souls into being and developing them. so the question for me is not of going back to simplicity or our unmanifest form, but of ‘becoming’ [whatever that may be]. maybe we eventually end up...

path, hi semantics yes, what i was alluding to was the idea that no one knows, so if you say i am sometimes at one with god or his love, then what are you actually at one with... maybe much of it is within you, i would say that not all parts of it [in the least] are ‘gods’ love, they are your...

path, hi true but what i am saying is that you believe you don’t know! you presume god, but you sense something else. you could describe absolutely everything you feel or think you know about god, and i would show you that none are god. to counter this you would have to define god and no one...

nick the pilot original self is infinite [0]. one may not advance beyond it, as it is in a sense, the beginning and the end. i disagree, as it is, the most advance form of you already exists within you. worldly affairs turn our gaze in other [relevant] directions but it is still there. put...

personally i think gods peace is an illusion, i just cannot see anything there that i would call a god. christians always go on about it as if they have found something that no one else can see, frankly i don’t believe it, i think there is only one reality and if there was this massive god...

citizenzen it is the source of our karma! i would contest that awareness has karmic associations, below i will paste a short description of how i think the mind works. once read if anyone can tell me how karma affects us, please feel free to do so. how does action become part of the...

seattlegal bit of a getaround imho, ones karma would surely be linked to ones environment ~ which is the main cause of it to begin with. i feel certain that at our hearts centre is freedom, that the soul cannot be put in chains except by its own decree. or in simpler terms, karma only affects...

one thing we should think of is; what happens if the sun went supernova tomorrow, do we all enter nirvana by default? this idea for me negates any ideas about karma and dhama. however it does not undermine the emptiness, that still seams like the most likely end-game scenario for the...
