We are the very embodiment of reality,we are the outer manifestation of an
inner reality,we are reality in motion,living embodiments of that which is!Why
then do we always seem to look outward for answers,regarding our "happening" here on earth?We are all firmly locked into the sequence of
becoming,as with all existance we are hotwired into that which is reality,as it is,there is no escape from this fact,no matter how hard you may try,as they say in therapy,de-nial is a river in Egypt!We are all embodiments of truth,or
that which is,which =reality,at the core of ALL manifested existance,lies the same thing,life itself!You dont have to take my word for it,or anybody else
on this here planet,all you have to do is -ask-Yourself! Meditate on the question,Am I the embodiment of reality?If you do this honestly and with an open mind.I am certain that the answer will be in the affirmitive.Try it,what have you to loose?

kindest regards michael.

Michael I know for sure I am the embodiment of reality or I would be an illusion. But aren't illusions as well placed under the realm of reality.
But is it distinguishable is what I ask. Is the reality which we think is real is it real? May be I shouldn't ask, But my curiosity gets the better of me.

The simple answer to that question Mohan,is yes and no!Well what are illusions?Are they real!Well theyare "real"to many millions of people,who are
bogged down in the quagmire of psuedo-reality!But utterly false and unreal to
one who sees it is.If we try to "think"of reality we will be come trapped ourselves?Reality just IS!You are the very embodiment of it,but if you think about IT,then it no longer is IT,but just what you think IT to be??Your curiosity will lead you far into the world of causes.

kind regards michael.

I like to think of mankind's cognizance as the eyes of the universe. We are eyes, we can see, but we lack the brain to interprete what we see.......Who is the brain, hello anybody, help us out here, lol....

Thank you Mr Nobody,if only our brains,or mind could be expanded,what then
I ask?


kind regards michael.

[Mohan.C]

Then I guess our brains would burst open wouldn't they.

The expansion of brain I think you mean the expansion of our knowledge. Anyway I think knowledge is accumulation. Intelligence is manipulation and conciousness is acceptance.

[mkirkpatrick]

May I thank you Mohan,for your wise and very astute and succinct reply.


kindests regards michael.

Michael,

I think we loook at the outside because it's easier. However, now that science is finding hard to look at the outside, it is starting to look in the inside: the mind (or consciousness) is the only study area shared by all sciences, weather social science or exact science. Our limitations are within, not only without; if we didn't have a mind we would be objects and thus objectives. All objecs in the universe know the truth of the universe, but they don't know for they don't have a mind. It's the paradox. You can have the thing or have the thing for having the thing, but not both. But can we really know the reality of ourselves? I doubt it, for there is no reality of ourselves. There is only the unlogical and unpractical behaviour of the mind to be studied, and, if properly done (not like until now), we may achieve something.

when we 'gaze' deep in our 'mind',we find there are memory chambers in our brain.each represents one subject.the function of the brain is to store data collected through the interaction of the senses with outside world.the data thus collected is described as memory (in the memory cells).then what is the mind? it is waves and waves of thought/ideas.suppose our mind is relaxed like the body is in deep meditation,we 'see' no mind.no desire,no mind;no idea/thought, no mind either.when mind is non-existent in meditation,where does it go?it goes nowhere because it simply has no 'existence' in that state.it means it is something other than mere ideas;surely it is the conscious because of our 'live' thoughts,which are stored in the upper layer of the memory chamber,where our conscious is focussed at the time. there is no consciousness in a mad person as there is none in the vegetable state of a paralytical body. in such conditions there is only the element of living-force present in the body,not the conscious.similarly in universe,there is consciousness,but even when it is withdrawn, it still exists in the matter---the final/Ultimate-Particle,otherwise there would not be any re-activation of another evolutionary process. each entity in nature has its own individual conscious field.evolutionary too has its consciousness, but it is local in nature.As both Nature & its creations have the quality of duplication/replication only. They go through the same cycle of creation-sustenance-annihilation again and again. It is the element of life-force which directly relates to the third subtlest of the subtle agency i.e. the Divinity, the Reality, which is 'Awareness' Itself. Rest some other time. with love. little-self.

Our minds physically don't exists but physicist are using minds. When we think we refer to our minds, but when we believe, where should we refer to?
