Hey John,

 

I do not know, how people find the time to post so much. I do

not have the time and therefore I'll just deliver the evening

post and why not address it to you:

 

There are two realities:

 

One is the world, the known, which consists of images.

 

The other is Reality which is void of images.

 

Concerning the first, since it consists of images - it is an

illusion - and therefore unreal.

 

Concerning the last - since it is void of images - it is not,

this is to say - noone there, nothing there.

 

So - one - the world, the illusion - is not real.

 

And the real - that which is not an illusion - does not exist.

It is nothing. Noone.

 

Now you may call me Methusalum if it is not correct for me to

ergo (verb) that everything - both the phenomenological world

and the void -- is not for real.

 

An illusion (a reality built on, consisting of images) is not

for real.

 

The nothing which is beyond the illusion is not for real. What

is not - is not - and thus (da daa) there is no reality to it.

 

Real women are sooo tired of all the mumbo-jumbo.

 

We are now left with ourselves - which is nothing, noone, un-

real. Illusion.

 

That said: the illusion which is what we call life - is beyond

belief; it is wonderful, timely, schrecklich, schmutzig (no, I

am not Jewish) schmuckish (but I like my way Jiddish :) lovely,

angelic, devilish, godly, secular, and so on and forth ...

 

and in that illusion all we say and think and do makes sense -

to some - an no sense to others - but it matters not really --

because it is an illusion!!

 

It makes a world of difference to have seen this as it has had

me accept or not accept (the illusion/ " what is " is dualistic)

the whole deal - including everything to it.

 

I like this, I like not that - is totally okay - for it is not

for real and yet it is the only real there is.

 

Can you imagine how it felt before I found out that the world

is an illusion? There was so much fear - first and last fear -

so much - well, " bad " stuff - you know.

 

Anyhoo - it is the only reality we have - this illusion and so

we might just as well enjoy it and hate it and yell at it, and

laugh at it - it is not going to stop -- it will go on forever,

for ever is its middle name, its first name, and its last name

and everything can & will happen as this is the way it is with

illusions.

 

Thank you for listening - whether you did or not :)

 

Good nite

 

Lene

Was it anything like how they obviously have found the rectangular thing called

a " door " and used it to go outside into that really big room beyond with the

blue ceiling? Or perhaps, how they may have been quick witted enough to achieve

the realization they were after and so fulfilled they departed?

I don't think that is such a great mystery. Many people have lot of time to

watch TV, surf Internet, watch pornography, play cards. Everybody in the world

is not that super busy producing all the time. A large number of the jobs don't

require people to remain focussed and " working " all the time. I have a family,

I have a full-time job, I watch sports, I watch TV, I watch movies, I do stock

trading, I talk to friends and still, I have lot of time left.

 

Many might be retired. Many might live alone. Many might not lack time only

question might be how to spend it. Witting on an online forum is certainly not

the worst way to spend time.

geo: No!! Does not exist?? Dont say that. You are not seeing. That

no-thing-ness is the essence of existence. Thoughts can not grasp it, it is

not an experience, nonetheless is the ONLY real.

gee geopardo i see you're getting all sensitive..

 

about baba not buying your holy bullshit.

 

why shucks i didn't expect you to start doing a dabbo dance.

 

ok..if you want us to think of you as some..

 

deep mysterious and mystical " in touch " guru..

 

i'll pretend and play along..

 

for awhile.

 

but sooner or later..likely more soon that late..

 

baba's going to quit playing with you..

 

and just start to toy with you instead.

 

that is if you're really going to act all huffy and holy..

 

and really expect .b b.b or anyone to think..

 

that you've " got it " ..hahahahahaaaa!

 

as if there's anything to " get " !

 

just chill out Son of Brazil.

 

you don't have anything to defend or to prove.

 

just get down from your high hobby horse and relax.

 

enjoy being the nothing little monkey that we all are.

 

you aren't any better little dude.

 

you're just a blind dufus like us all.

 

except you are beginning to think you " have " something..

 

and as you initially said kid..there is ONLY nothing.

 

and nothing to get..nothing to convey

 

except for one or two " nonethelesses " i guess.

 

you know..those little numbers that are:

 

experienced as not an experience.(hee hee!)

 

yeah that's it huh..

 

the " essence of the no-thing-ness-ness "

 

LOL!

 

yours with the real low down..

I spent quite a few (read: many) hours online myself. It does

however not only take time to write - it takes much more time

to read, and try to understand, what the people are trying to

convey :) That is the time I don't have so much of although I

have all the time in the world and is free to do what I like.

I know - that is what they tell me - Krishnamurti, Nisargadatta,

all the angels of the world tell me about this Absolute - Self -

blablablabl Awareness and I may be the lonely one knows that all

of this belongs to - are fragments of - the illusion.

 

Yes, we talk about no-thing-ness - but do we even know what were

babbling about?

 

Nothing is nothing - you see. Get? NOTHING. A black hole with no

hole to it! It is not even an illusion! There is nothing more to

say about nothing.

 

Everything that happens - EVERY thing - belongs to the illusion,

IS the illusion, and that is the only ISS-NESS for ya.

 

I have taken the liberty to state that the illusion is nothing -

simply because it is an illusion (this life, this existance with

its time and timelessness ugliness and beauty, with its gods and

devils) because it is an illusion and so nothing!! But I guess I shouldn't have.

 

The illusion is the life and let's talk about that life then and

everything to it - all the little fragments - how are you today?

All that has a name or label to it is a thing, belongs to the

world of things, stuff. God, Awareness, Ether, Energy, Devil,

chair, table, house, body, eyes - belongs to the world which

is an illusion. That is one. One is the illusion.

 

It is amazing to see how one keeps dividing one into two and

yet maintain there is but one and that one is none and so on.

 

The wisest people say there are two, this and that - the here

and the there, the latter called *beyond the here* by some. K

talked about something *beyond the known* -- he called it the

bliss and the silence and the joy and the beauty - and all of

that is beyond the image, beyond belief, beyond everything in

other words.

 

But beyond the known there is absolutely nothing!

 

That is why one is one and not two.

 

One is the known - and the known is an illusion.

 

Phewing and sighing and giving up and giving in and throwing in

the towelly yours :)

I know - that is what they tell me - Krishnamurti, Nisargadatta,

all the angels of the world tell me about this Absolute - Self -

blablablabl Awareness and I may be the lonely one knows that all

of this belongs to - are fragments of - the illusion.

 

Yes, we talk about no-thing-ness - but do we even know what were

babbling about?

 

Nothing is nothing - you see. Get? NOTHING. A black hole with no

hole to it! It is not even an illusion! There is nothing more to

say about nothing.

 

Everything that happens - EVERY thing - belongs to the illusion,

IS the illusion, and that is the only ISS-NESS for ya.

 

I have taken the liberty to state that the illusion is nothing -

simply because it is an illusion (this life, this existance with

its time and timelessness ugliness and beauty, with its gods and

devils) because it is an illusion and so nothing!! But I guess I shouldn't

have.

 

The illusion is the life and let's talk about that life then and

everything to it - all the little fragments - how are you today?

 

-Lene

 

Look. I am not asking you to accept anything I say or K or Nis said. That

would be the continuation of stupidity (belief).

All and every manifestation is illusion in the sense that they are not other

then " asdf " .

Yes, of course there is nothing, absolutely nothing to say about " asdf " , not

because it is not, but because the brain can only deal with memory contents

and " asdf " is not a thing to be stored in memory. The closest I can manage

to get to " asdf " with words right now is " existence per-se " . It is not some

foggy fuzzy mysterious cloudy mystic thing - but the most obvious presence.

You must meditate this, contemplate in the sense that you are it, so of

course you will never be able to see or hear or touch it. It is quality-less

but the seer of qualities, unchanging but the seer of change, the seer of

illusion. Don't believe me.

Re: The evening post

 

 

 

All that has a name or label to it is a thing, belongs to the

world of things, stuff. God, Awareness, Ether, Energy, Devil,

chair, table, house, body, eyes - belongs to the world which

is an illusion. That is one. One is the illusion.

-lene-

 

This field is what Nis called consciousness. Yes it is one field of

illusion. K's " consciousness " is more restricted. It is the field of the ME.

The un-answerable question " what is seeing illusion? " must be wordlessly

answered.

-geo-

 

It is amazing to see how one keeps dividing one into two and

yet maintain there is but one and that one is none and so on.

-lene-

 

It is only two as in the analogy water-electrons. You can see, touch, smell,

feel water. But without electrons there is no water. (analogy)

-geo-

 

The wisest people say there are two, this and that - the here

and the there, the latter called *beyond the here* by some. K

talked about something *beyond the known* -- he called it the

bliss and the silence and the joy and the beauty - and all of

that is beyond the image, beyond belief, beyond everything in

other words.

 

But beyond the known there is absolutely nothing!

-lene-

 

why? The known sounds are those that the ear is able to hear. It is a

frequncy between 20 and 20000 cicles per second. If the air vibrates at

50000 cicles and none can hear....means it is not vibrating?

-geo-

 

That is why one is one and not two.

 

One is the known - and the known is an illusion.

 

Phewing and sighing and giving up and giving in and throwing in

the towelly yours :)

geoparado

 

take your own advice and don't read what i write.

 

you are too emotional to handle it.

 

you react as if it's a big deal.

 

it's not.

 

you're not.

 

i'm not.

 

your bullshit is not.

 

have some fun..

 

and for Christ sakes little dude..

 

NOTHING ever changes.

 

you don't change.

 

baba doesn't change.

 

the Big NOTHING doesn't change.

 

..b b.b.'s blah blah blahing doesn't change.

 

your ignorance doesn't change.

 

if you're really feeling you need change..

 

go to the dime store with a dollar.

 

well actually THAT has changed..

 

so make that: go to the dollar store with a $10. bill.

 

but in the midst of that change we can also see the changeless..

 

inflation never changes.

 

well anyway bub..

 

chill.

 

you ain't no enlightened guru.

 

there aren't any.

 

that too has never been the case and that too never changes.

 

and as for me not caring..

 

with a lot or even a just a few words..

 

that never changes either.

 

as for you caring so much that you read all those many or few words..

 

that also never changes.

 

you think too much of yourself to miss a word..

 

ANY word..

 

that you think is about you.

 

that's why geoparado..

 

no matter how many or how few words i write to you..

 

you are bound by your self interest..

 

and by baba' Supreme Power over you..

 

to read ALL of them EVERY time.

 

and you are bound to later on boast that you don't as well.

 

LOL!

 

what a lousy trap huh?

 

well here you are again..

 

at the end of the words you say that you not need to read.

 

and you're still reading them.

 

right to the bloody end.

 

and the blood is yours geoparado.

 

it's called the blood of the Crucifixion.

 

as long as you suffer Samsara..

 

you will suffer the Agony.

 

when finally " you " have dissolved into Nirvana..

 

Unending Bliss.

 

but..

 

to THAT which is Consciousness..

 

without Object..or Subject..

 

there is no difference between Bliss or Agony..

 

Samsara or Nirvana.

 

it simply never changes.

 

hahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

 

:-)

 

..b b.b.

 

p.s.

 

my gracious that's a lot of words!

 

but then i know you don't read them all anyway.

 

because you've indicated as much to wernerina beforehand..

 

and because as always (things never change)..

 

you never learn the lesson.

 

are you still reading this tripe Son of Brazil???

 

shame on you!

 

LOL

P: Lene, can we go into these terms and see

what we mean by them? What do we mean when

say this is illusion, and that is real? What standard

do we use to distinguish one from the other? In everyday

language we take for granted last night dreams were

illusions, but the beds we slept in were real. We base

that conclusion on the fact that beds last longer than

dreams, they change very slowly. They are more constant,

consistent, more dependable. So, are you saying that

the world is illusion because it's evanescent, changeable,

inconsistent, not dependable?

 

Are you saying Nothing is the only reality because it

never changes? What is knowledge to you? What do we say,

when we say " we know " a thing?

 

Can we know anything fully, completely?

 

IMO, all we know is stories we make about our perceptions.

The world we know is the stories our culture has made

about what we perceive. The atom, relativity, galaxies,

are scientific stories. God and the soul are religious

stories. The One, Absolute, Nothingness are also stories.

 

Because our senses are limited, we perceive partially, so

we know only stories about partial perceptions. Can we stay

with sensations without stories for a while and sense what

being completely conscious, and completely unconscious are?

Maybe then, we can discover something beyond any story ever

told.

Exactly.

 

" Nothing " does not get to have its own presence, as a something ;-).

You're already 'everything' (and nothing).

 

The barrier of fear is there. It can't be bypassed. One is the fear one is

trying to avoid.

 

When there's no other option, one will " just be it " .

 

As long as there seems to be some other option, one won't.

Yes, inertia can be a real issue, the " automaticity " of the auto-pilot. Living

in awareness means living from moment to moment, without any auto-pilot. It has

to be given up altogether if one wants to live in 'reality'.
