All eventualities are the same being eventful and events just keep coming and going. Republicans are one possible event.
To ace K: The universe is expanding into nothing. Even at the quantum level virtual particles have interactions with one another. How can they have interactions if they aren't separated in some way?. If they are separate then there exists a space between them. When one of the virtual particles pop out of existence this nonexistence wouldn't be possible without nothingness.
lol You said that to "be-long" suits you just fine. :-D How about that! So are shit and shite. lol You must've come down with delineatitis! All eventualities are eventful, not the same. You'll get it eventually, unless of course you don't. The cosmological confines of our causal patch aren't a patch on infinity. ;-D Monkeyboy to Ace: "Nonexistence" turns out to be bad poetry. :-D The universe expands into itself. Into more, not 'nothing.' "The invention of the time tunnel was not for tunnelling, but for time!" said the man for the future.
Republicans in the heaven of their chaos of preferring the world to run out of oil and 'energy' rather than make adjustments for the principle of what the hell is an energy sector of economic growth supposed to be. Another event-hood could mean confronting the East, rocket Man, and true futurity.
Yes I said to be-long suits me just fine, but I did mean as the right or privilege of an exclusive class but to existence. Shite is a variation of the word shit but a shite is also a person who performs the technique in aikido. You appear not know what is the same and what is different and not the same. You can be unconscious and still have mind but you can't be conscious without it. Events are always related to some narrative or parameter of measurement as they are picked out of time, yes they are all the same. What does the word infinity mean to you? There are no cosmological confines except in the claim of a past or a future.
Hmm... That seems like it's a doozy for the Big Bang Theory. Even if you point to multiverse theories, or perhaps something along the lines of an anti-universe, which could potentially give the universe a space to expand from/into, there seems to be this regressive issue with finite space, which nothing seems to reside outside of.
Aikido. Huh. :-D I'm still waiting for you to distinguish mind apart from consciousness. And show me how mind can arise without biology while you're at it! Unconsciousness is a kind of consciousness after all. lol No, events are not all the same for anything. Infinity, to me, is boundless. About the confines of a claimed past or future, a claimed present can become a confinement just as readily.
Is there a chance that you are achieving life in the Mind for Objects of the experiential world imaginatively structured here towards expressive features against the background of the impressive lacked there? But life on Earth is thus ideally Lacked. The spirit-world is lacked of it's material existence, the unconditioned-conditional. The probability is just a useful expression of what could have been known for success. Really the better we assume to know, the more the effort at Superman fails. We can want to suit superman's fantasies about love at failure, and still we'd come unknowing about the existing delusion; I believe RIchard Dawkins called that the God delusion.
To guerillabedlam: I don't think of nothingness as outside of space. It's permeating it. If the universe is a painting nothingness is the canvass.
I don't know about the spirit world lacking material existence but I do know the mind naturally abstract.
By calling mind quantum communication. A unicellular animal demonstrates mind but not what you would call consciousness. Life moves from simple to more complex through simple addition and multiplication is quick addition. Consciousness is a complex array of simple elemental associations. If infinity is boundless then events aren't part of it as events are bound by para-meters. All claims of specialness are confining claims.
Oh ok, I thought you were partly suggesting what is beyond the canvas itself. If a painting is the visible universe of primarily matter for us, the canvass is still made of something.
Interesting reading.Sometimes I think our conscious mind is essentially not in our brain at all,which is a ludicrous idea but please allow me to indulge myself.The function of the brain could be to regulate autonomic processes like regulation of the the organs,homeostasis and apperception of the senses.But the location of the thinking conscious may exist on another plane altogether,if we can accept that there is a supra-transcendent soul/spirit that abides in the holistic universal mind of God.That humanity is God's method of seeing the universe and experiencing her creation.When in deep meditation was my sensation of my mind filling the universal meld simply an experience contained in a purely bio-mechanistic brain or is there an actual interpenetration of my soul spirit with some cosmic universal time/space continuum.Some call it the Arkashic realm,but I don't really know much about this.I have a book by Deepak Chopra on this but haven't read it yet.Still my contention here is that if it could ever be proved that the mind can produce action at a distance we may have to concede that a portion of the mind could conceivably be located outside of the confines of the physical body.These are just the ruminations of an amateur metaphysician which probably bare no relation to scientific fact and current research on the mind/brain dichotomy.Fantasy can be one of our most precious gifts,but can also lead us into great danger if not exercised with due restraint.Contemporary reality increasingly takes on the guise of a self-creating fiction that needs to be filtered through a carefully constructed sensorium.Technology and the overly obvious overlay,for the social reality constructors dispensed with the need for a subtext,assumes the guise of a power without central locus of origination and responsibility,and sets up an horrific counterpoint to shy unadorned nature.This nemesis is aided on it's perhaps purposeless yet nevertheless senseless mission by the most talented visualisers and realisers of cosmetic,hollow and nightmarish phantom that begins to feel almost virtual in it's disconnect from anything approaching sane morality and a common shared humanity,faciltated by an ideological state apparatus peopled by cynical manipulators of human desire.These highly trained psychologists and psycho-socialists have there reified superflat mind control agenda fleshed out by the most technically gifted digital artists,electronics engineers and 3-d stylists working today.But we have to let these geniuses play.Is all this attempt to implant in the minds of the children of the Earth,of which I am one,an instrumentally designed conspiracy,enacted via a top down power base,or is just the natural evolution of a cultural drift,the externalisation of a deeper teleology that finds expression through the essensualism of the structure of our desires,aesthetic predisposition towards futurity and the collective consciousness of our barely repressible libidinal urges,seeping out into an alienating sci-fi hell on Earth,with new born babies habituated and acculturated to a systematised,pre-packaged,auto-malleable brainwashed clownmaster's playground of perfected product,taking the place of spontaneous joy,uncontrived delight in real uncorrupted relationships without comparison of what is more special,intelligent,worthy of appraisal,where we can see that we are all super-sensate geniuses by virtue of being human,and that we cam integrate instinct and will power with the evolutionary leap of a life lived in mutual cooperation,and live as brothers and sisters,enjoying common ownership of material necessities,and see through the fetters of streamlined aerodynamic performative commodity fetishism.In my vision,because this is what this self-indulgent rambling nonsense has become,death culture and power trip culture are exposed as the psychpathic grab for world domination by means of debasement of the natural world and replacement of it with hypnagogic,empty and vacuous pseudo experiences wherein life is reduced to a state of false consciousness regarding true notions of the reason for being alive.Morality becomes increasingly relative,Society becomes a Nietzschean dystopia wherein the experience of power and pleasure are magnified at the expense of people feeling ever more depressed,anxious,lacking purposeful meaning and ever more likely to disappear into a pixelated foreground of vicariously experienced emotions of disconnectl,apathy,dissatisfaction with self,inability to form lasting and meaningful relationships and ultimately a complete inner breakdown of the self into micro-managed chunks of pleasure/pain pay-offs.At this point pain may become pleasure and pleasure pain.These experiences will also hold true for the social reality creators too,as well as the common person,just transferred to a higher intensity.New age is a lie.There are no cosmic vibrations that will bring about a paradigm shift in consciousness.Jesus ain't coming back.The world will slowly die under a weight of endlessly tweaked product that will very soon have gone as far as it can go stylistically and in terms of it's functionality.The death of the real will be followed by the death of the unreal.Perverse inversions of of any sense of the good natural life will become intermixed with atrocious news headlines of never ending disaster,as twenty four hour news tries to set you the impossible task of holding the instantaneity of more now faster,endless self-creating fictions of mindless jerk off opinion,judgements,arguments,fucking sports news,social media babbling on with it's poor lives screaming look at me,High times for the people who accept all this bullshit and crap as an excuse to exist. Well,this is one of the longest and most phoney poste I have ever posted here,and I doubt if anyone got through it.My insights are feeble,and I went way off topic.You're welcome to think I'm full of shit.I'd like that,at least it' honest.So I will try to get back to the mind thing.For the protection of your future mental health,I suggest that do not entertain any of the agendas anymore.I suggest that you drop sexual fantasy.I suggest that you stop trying to get what you think you want.I suggest you just do what you got to do and do it well.Don't compromise your own mind.Just leave the world behind.Simplify,clarify and say no to exploitation,abuse,cruelty and find the inner strength to keep on fighting the power as much as you can.This post won't do much for my reputation,but I don't care what anyone here thinks about me.I'm an absolute peaceophile situationist.I like to have nice and useful stuff around but would gladly get rid of it all for a chance of freedom.I aim to be master of self servant to all.I wrote this out for personal therapy.I'm happy.I don't need a normal life.After what I've been through,with being threatened to be murdered by a criminally insane person,I just enter the ultimate moment , absolute peace and calm and and I suppose I'll have to try and deal with the violence if it happens.A note to mods,sorry for the length of this off-topic drivel,but I needed to write.Everyone else,thanks for tolerating me.I'm so fond of so many of you.Ciao.
To guerillabedlam: By using canvass as a metaphor I didn't mean to suggest nothingness is something. To aceK: Nothingness has no value, but the volume is infinite.
But I do call mind consciousness, and it is. No, mind is not something apart from consciousness for your calling it so. The varying states of its complexity, the evolution of the self, have never been anything outside of life, outside its biology. No.That events are their parameters doesn't mean they are not a part of infinity. Eventuality is endless. You say events are all the same, though they're not. You want them to assume a uniformity they do not possess for the fact that they are interrelated? I doubt it. One doesn't have to simply allude to ones meaning in words. Self-expression is our own. Your claim that to claim what is special confines us, is quite a claim! lol But to claim it for us all - what is special to you thedope? :-D
Volume of 0 = 0. Your consignment of infinity to mathematical theory has fallen through! lol Ace K has said zero is a real number though, so maybe he can help you out here. ;-D
The mind can produce action at a distance. Physicality is unconfined. We get stuck trying to 'measure' that distance. Some quantum investigators believe in a fallacy called "retro-causation." lol
The canvas is something, whether it be in terms of color, form, consistency, etc... so I am suggesting it to you Most metaphors for describing activity at or including the quantum level inevitably fall short one way or another because the descriptors we use necessarily come from our macroscopic perspective of the world.
