Yes, exactly.

 

Or, could say: it's not there, so there isn't any realization for it to have,

and that's the realization.

Yes, in a way - continuing without continuity.

 

Disintegration.

 

Spontaneous reintegration.

 

Unobservable.

 

And yet, so.

It has been described quite often in terms of death.

 

There have been those who seemed convinced that an actual 'clinical death'

happens (e.g. U.G.).

 

It can certainly seem so.

the to " whom " it seems thus is a fiction.

 

rely not on illusions.

 

rely not at all.

 

for such reliance in truth is impossible.

 

just more dream-stuff and nonsense.

Indeed... one realizes that there was never anything to comprehend.

 

The 'relative being' is only thought's tendency to divide the indivisible,

apparently as a way to ensure survival of the organism.

 

Why this tends to goes so far beyond the necessary in human beings, I can't

comprehend :-p.

Please correct me if I am wrong. You appear to be saying that there can be such

a thing as an act (continuing) without a state (continuity).

 

I would have thought the act was the weaker of the pair. A state can be

accomplished passively; but an act needs an agent to first be and then be doing

something.

 

So it is fine to say " The thing is " . But to stay that " The thing is doing " means

that it first must be, and then it must possess the power to do.

Can you say what it is that disintegrates. Surely it cannot be Atman, life,

awareness, soul. They appear elemental and not easily split.

 

Although I have heard it said that someone possesses not much of a life. I

assumed they meant it metaphorically -- that the person possessed zombie like

qualities and not that they were a zombie.

It's a puzzle within a mystery, wrapped in an enigma.

Hi Meth -

 

Do you have a cousin Crystal?

 

Anyway, that's an interesting way to put it, an act without a state.

 

Or maybe, it's an act without a stage.

 

> I would have thought the act was the weaker of the pair. A state can be

accomplished passively; but an act needs an agent to first be and then be doing

something.

 

An act can just be movement. Not an accomplishment.

 

A state is a quality.

 

So, you can have an action without a quality.

 

Not an accomplishment.

 

A spontaneous event-ing.

 

Unpremeditated and not enduring.

 

Not subject to comparison.

 

> So it is fine to say " The thing is " . But to stay that " The thing is doing "

means that it first must be, and then it must possess the power to do.

 

Well, I meant an action that never " achieved " existence nor is nonexistent.

It may have something to do with 'being able to project my own death', once

I feel that 'I exist'.

 

" I exist " (thus) " I will die " becomes a sort of broken thought-loop,

existing only for its own continuation, and stirring up all sorts of other

silliness in the process.

 

The issue is 'time', and the associated dream.

Fwiw, I think " all is consciousness " is a cheesy way to say " there's no such

thing as objectivity " .

 

Also fwiw, I don't recall you ever uttering the words " all is consciousness " .

Thought that was Ramesh Balsekar's thing.

Fwiw, " fwiw " means 'for what it's worth' ;-).

In other words, I am not encapsulated by a fear-based program or an

existence in time.

 

- D -

 

I suppose for one who feels as... and is able to say " all is consciousness "

to talk about some " unborn " must sound absurd or imagination?

Yes, 'all is consciousness' makes little sense, unless one is trying to say

" there isn't such a thing as objectivity " (which is true).

 

I used to joke on my old " Fewtchykrishnamurti " list that " All is Consciousness "

is something they teach to anesthesiologists, to help them wake people up after

surgery ;-).

Was this so-called consciousness that all is, something that was born?

 

- D -

 

I am not sure what would one of them answer - but I suppose they would say

it was born with the organism. For example pete I think says all is

happening in the brain. Toombaru something like that also. They say it is

all one selfless movement, unknown in its nature because the limited mind

can not know itself - nonetheless all was born with the body.

I have never been born, so I wouldn't know.

 

- D -

 

You wouldn't know what would " they " say because you are unborn? Makes no

sense.
