I agree with this. You don't necessarily need some sort of emotional stake in a label to be one, if you know what I mean. That, and labels can at times quickly give you a stance without having to wade through tons of stuff and minor details. Maybe not detailed enough to work with all the...
Evil is a label that we imbigue with power. It's painful/loathed because we attach those feelings with the label. Only the actions deemable evil exist themselves, I don't see evil as it's own essence. Just a label.
Looking at it another way, ignorance can give rise to a whole range of unwanted...
I'm not a muslim but of course tolerance and peace would be appreciated across the board. The problem lies in the holy books. I don't ever see high levels of tolerance and peace as long as old scriptures are adhered to because you can only interpret certain passages so many ways. Eventually your...
Now I think your talking about uniqueness as opposed to originality. It may not be unique at first but still be the original. Of course copies are going to be the same superficially. And why would they not be able to claim originality on the psychological level? If people change over time even...
what the heck lol, I tried to get as low as I could and ended up with
You are 90% evil!
You are evil itself. Born from the dephs of Hell, light was erased from your soul and filled with darkness. Mercy is not an option unless you can use it to perform and even more evil deed. Some wounder...
That's sorta what I was pointing at. "What" is aware of that personality, not just the persona itself.
I don't neccessarily(sp?) agree with that. Karma drives and shapes the personality into a direction. Uploading the personality matrix would still be a copy, not continuation of that specific...
Personally, I don't see God (or whatever you choose to call the higher power) as wanting anything. It seems to me that such an all-encompassing entity would simply not need anything or create (or give rise to creation) out of it's own function, as if that's simply what it does. Of course if you...
Anyone know where I can find a translation of the Brahma Sutra's without commentary? I've been looking for a translation without the commentaries like by Sankara but all I find are those with tons of commentaries. If anyone knows where I can find the Sutras translated into english sans...
I ascribe more to Anton Park's writings and theories than anyone elses at the moments.

I just never could read books on a computer or digital screen for some reason for too long. Even articles are taxing because I like a physical copy of a book in my hands that I can look at. Sometimes I even print off longer articles so I'm not sitting there that long. Mebe that's just me:p
I agree pretty much. Nothing but a simulation of a human. Attempts at reducing the essence of humans to the desires and thoughts of the mind sort of makes me cringe, going against my personal conviction that there is a soul.
Seems more like immortality of the vessel that the "personality" is...
lolo Sounds pretty EPIC!
I usually practice a sort of "advaitic" type of meditation. I focus on the body then gradually regress on what is focusing on the body (mind). Then I observe my mind and how thoughts and feelings come and go. The entire time I'm thinking (though not always with too...
