“I once was not, now I am, and soon will not be”. Who does this not describe?
Yes, all my evidences are purely anecdotal, empirical. If data is the requirement of truth, that is that truth requires support and can only be supported by our investigations and collections of data for its being, its being is not at all transcendent. Why even speak of it then as having any being?
To each, it is all and only then, no more than the spewing of personally collected data points. Small wonder how popular has become “speak your truth”. The reduction of, and conflation of truth with opinion, is of some utility to a certain mind. Even the mind in claim of desiring and devoted to order, but that in all practicality reveals itself chaos driven.
But what resort could a thing have that to itself is founded only by random pairings, timeless couplings of careening and caroming molecules that produced it to think, to speak, to believe it knows? Who could blame it for loving its paternity of utterly perceived (and conceived) randomness? Its simply…happening. What else could it do? Actually, what else could it do, but lie? A product of randomness believing it is in itself the supply of order it can assign.
And one cannot have it both ways if one is not lying about wanting cake. If one says it is in no claim of its being utterly random, but that certain laws were already at work to its forming (or in other terms it was formed of a determining)…what determined? Laws (of even matter, time and/or space and energy) do not determine anything and are completely mute as to their own being and process unless they speak of something themselves of their forming. What law of physics determined law to have a hearing?
But who doesn’t “believe in” gravity? It speaks to each, each and every moment. Do you doubt? Of course you do not. Was gravity “true” before any laws were discovered to describe it? Were the “law(s)” of gravity speaking to every man before his attempts to determine them? If you believe you know this, how do you know this?
“I once was not, now I am, and soon will not be”.
Yeah, consciousness is a trip. It can “insert” itself, or project itself (or believes it does) into most any situation imaginable. It will venture back in time and look at man “stuck to the earth”, even as today and conclude “yep, gravity is nothing new”. “Hey, I can see 1646 from here!”.
Even attempt to project itself into the “future.” A thing non existent…as of yet. Trippy, huh? Do you “see” the Big Bang, too? Did you look around in your consciousness and say “nope, don’t see any consciousness here, yet”…just a lot of stuff occupying very little (what isn’t “relative’?) amount of space and a monstrous amount of heat I can’t begin to describe. A thing surveying with a surveyor at the helm…in “his” own consciousness. How divisible we all are! Pilot that thing back there and tell me what you find. But see, if you really can do that what you would really be saying (as a liar by omission)…”No consciousness here…but my own”.
Oh yeah, you got a god alright.
It was asked earlier about trips to the sun, projecting into or onto places very hostile to life and whether you (your consciousness) had returned unscathed. “Going to the sun in your mind” is generally found a pretty safe trip, no?
But go ahead, now, try and touch your consciousness with your own consciousness and find if it is not, in some disturbing way, quite terrorizing. Is there a terror in consciousness? Is there not? Is the one thing by which you seek to present yourself, know yourself, even understand yourself as “being” (your own consciousness)…off limits to you?
“Can’t go there, that’s crazy land!”?
Who is the high priest of your sanity?
You?
Man, that’s crazy.
Go ahead, speak your truth.
