C'mon you guys, stop the argueing. I wish there was a place where nothing mattered. You didnt have to worry about ends meat. (as so to speak) just a place where everything is perfect. but such a place can not exist. I thought about it. I am nothing more than a dreamer in an imperfect place. But this imperfect place pulls everything together but tears it apart. Where is that place where it was like the first day YOU were brought into the world no matter how i put this it offends religion. ARG I want peace i guess but it wont happen in this world it will never happen. look at the world what is happening to us? We are worried about people stealing shit from another person on the other side of the world! If you dont want them to get it GET RID OF IT. this world is going down for the ones who feel this. Maybe it is the drugs or maybe the true understanding of life at once. Think about it. are the drugs always talking or have we found this ultimate way of life. Where we can explore. Death i hate the fact of thinking that 1 day i will be completely gone from this world. Although my life is filled with corruption we know that their is more out there than us. It sucks to know that our great minds will be put to rest, and no one besides me will understand this. One day your going to die, another day ill die, and then comes the third guy. although it is only our bodies we are inside that body. IMPORTANT our mind, is inside our head, if we die, so does everything to fuel it, so those that think there is something there that will solve everything. shit i cant talk. our mind is inside our brain. even though some dont think it is, do you see it somewhere else? i mean cmon do you see your mind somewhere else. no when you die your mind goes with you in the sand into the ground. Have these crack addicts found something we are missing? are they further into the exploration than we are? am i talking to myself? or am I aiming at you forumers?
man you confused me so bad. Skull, i recommend you read some experiences where people HAVE died. See what they saw, what the felt, youll be amazed. Our bodys may go into the ground when we die, but our soul is entering eternity.
I totally understand everythign you said. I think abotu it everyday. It make sme feel so... hopeless though. Being without hope is worse than any pain.
your mind thinks up some cazy shit thanks for the chemicals is our brain that makes us dream. that chemical can be activated any time you want it to. Near death experiences is nothing but what the people who are experiencing it make it out to be.
the soul, the mind, or the spiritual energy within us all manifests itself within the machinery that is this vessel of a body. this energy of the mind can only present itself in this physical reality through physical means, which is the functioning of the brain. after physical expansion and understanding in this reality has occurred and our vessel eventually wears down and ceases to hold the ability to harbor our souls we delve back into the spirit realm as pure energy. we return together and understand our existence through one flowing consciousness of latticing energy... maybe? who knows
But the world being so bad is what pulls people together to, theres intelligent humans who actually realize that its easier to get along with other people and work together through this shithole of a world. Besides the world isnt that bad, matter of perception, have a nice trip?
I disagree with this statement. Currently there are around 3 billion people who are starving around the world. So I guess your location in this world could mean if you have a pleasent life or not. I feel very lucky that right now we are typing away on our computers while others in Africa cant even walk because its so hot outside or because they are ridden with disease. My personal thought on life and death, well Im freaked out to say the least. Im not going to go into the whole spiritual debate because I already have my set beliefs of what happens to you when you die. Though everytime I think about it, it just freaks me out. Its weird to think that even when I'm gone that everything around me will still be functioning, maybe new faces and different people but the world moves on. Think about this one, dinosaurs became extinct millions of years ago. Humans are already looking towards a faster doomsday then anyother species on this planet. So in 75 million years what creatures will be rulling this planet then? Maybe some of the craziest species will be on this earth. I dont know I find it mind boggiling to think about that. Also to think that through the 6 billion years of earth, through war and famine, though everything all ancestors have been through, WE are now sitting here today. But who will be sitting here tommarow?
yeah i hate thinkin bout death, knowin ill be gone some day, it sucks, i just want to be with everyone on the world forever, doin stuff, helpin people, makin an impact
I dont think I would want to experience this world forever.. skullkidnate.. theres communes all around if all you wanna do is live free and what not, go find one in new mexico or arizona or some shit
It's a shame to see this fear of death you all are sharing. I personally, am very interested and excited about it, the same excitment I felt during the months leading up to my son's birth. Death is not to be feared. It is attachment to material things and physical nature, or people, that is holding you back from Self-realization. You say God is not real? You say the Soul is not real? I say you haven't tried hard enough to experience conciousness. When you rely on thought, you can never experience the wonders of the Self, or the Soul. Why should you fear death? Because your present state of manifested energy is not going to go with you?! Your body is but a pair of clothes. Even your own body changes constantly, from moment to moment. The atoms that have built you are already gone, if your a teenager, this is techincally your second, almost third body. Do you fear death because you cant take money with you? Or your girlfriend or boyfriend? Or your dog or cat? House? Friends? Car? Drugs? Love? Living in fear is a terrible way to waste this manifestation as a human being. Can you not see the absolute blessing that you are a human being, who does not have to spend the entire day hunting just to make sure you eat? Even in the poorest of the poor countries, a human being is still blessed with the ability to Love, and given the potential to meditate or find God. When you are absorbed with the love of yourself, the physical and mental/emotional/desire ridden self, you will remain in fear because you are attached to things that cause suffering. With every pleasure, suffering follows as a shadow. And these things which cause suffering are not eternal. But your true Self, is. The state of Nirvana never fades. It does not come in waves, as emotions do. Life is suffering, and it has its ups and downs. But when you do away with the layer of materialism that is covering your Soul, it will open up to the wonders of Love of God, and never again can you have fear. Fear is poison.
^You from Philly man!? I lived there for 11 years. On topic: Man, these are some crazy ass thoughts....I dunno...I sorta got confused. It's scary that we can't know what it will be like to die until we actually die...makes me scared of death.
To fear death, is only to think ourselves wise, without being wise, for it is to think that we know what we do not know. He who doesn't fear death dies only once... But, I don't fear death, I fear the unknown, my only question is.... What happens next? I fear the differnce between how it is and how it should be.
Got ya. Well, if it is yours, congrats, and I am a single father I have him 4-5 days a week so if you ever need to talk I can try and help. But, say the child is from you, this is unkown to you how to be a father. For how can you know unless you've experienced it? And how can you be a good father, if you are afraid? Likewise, the unknown of afterlife should be approached in the same manner. Good luck~ Om shanti
