Dude, I freaking love cats man. And bears, and squirrels are 2nd and 3rd place. But cats, beyond just how chill they look and act, they have a direct God connection, it's like the opposing force to the ancient eyes of snakes. Something just tells you that they watched the aliens build the pyramids all those years ago
I love baby bears thanks to a crazy night of methstacy. but yeah squirrels and cats are pretty high up there for me too. Dogs are really stupid but I like how they are always happy. It's really sad when you see a dog that is sad or abused. Here is a picture of my buddy that I thought you might enjoy. If he doesn't have a direct God connection, then I just wouldn't know what to think. Jarvis..
Jarvis! I have to say, that is one of the most beautiful cats I've ever seen man, those eyes are intense! Alright we should stop derailing poor Shapeys thread now :tongue:
I suppose no terms are adequate to describe a godhead, but at the same time one word can be adequate. it's better to transcend linguistics and transfer a thought without the crude medium of language. my bag is trying to extinguish the conventional images that come to mind when I normally hear a word like "god". it's funny because the items that are being discussed in this thread, are not dissimilar to the content in one of my conversations as a 12-year-old kid. it was the same lofty subject matter, but now it's taken on more of a reality. it's a bit like an acid trip itself: going in certain loops and each time you descend through the loop it gets more sophisticated and more deep, and something you might have dismissed before as impractical suddenly is resurrected with a new relevance. such is how it was when I would discuss these things with other aquarians as a kid. we thought it was cool, but mostly didn't take it seriously, and now it's synonymous with life. it's like someone said before: it's not a matter of being told these things, it's a matter of being reminded of them. I had daily headaches before I tripped, now they're mostly gone. i was a bit uncomfortable around most people, now I see them as almost mirror images of myself. it's all been incredibly humbling and faith-provoking.
There is so many similarities that come to my mind, and I can actually find an explanation of dimensions and transcending realities much clearer when I compare our existance with the technology that we are developing. Every time we find some breaking through technology it opens so many new doors for exploring unknown realities witch were always there but we couldn't even dream that they exist. With discovery of quantum physics so many explanations came and raised spirituality on another level. Suddenly science could partly explain and prove what its bigest enemy(spirituality) up to that moment was claiming to be true, but since it could not be proved before it was claimed impossible. We have now so many experiments that nobody would think of before. Scientists gathered and created computer virus. They placed virus on computer and observed what will happen next. First thing that happened is that virus started multiplaying. Than on scientists surprise, they started making groups between them, and as the "physical" space on the computer started to be smaller and smaller, some of the groups started to be agressive against others, destroying the opposite group so they can have more space for their group. Agressive groups started to be stronger and bigger in numbers, so the defending groups started gathering together so they can protect them self. All the time the space on the computer was smaller and smaller, and scientists desided to link another computer to that one and see what will happen. In the beggining, nothing was happening, but than, a small group found the way to move to another computer and started the whole process again on the new computer. Every time scientists added a new "land" for them, the process started again. But what was very interesting is that the whole "evolution" thing was completely different on each of the computers, yet in the base so same. From one exactly the same virus suddenly they had millions of completely different types of viruses. Some types were dissapearing while new were created. Doesn't all of this remind you on evolution of our life on earth. Some species dissapeared while others were developing and creating completely new ones. The fact that virus needed some time to find the way to inhabit every other added computer reminds me of developing our own consiousnes so we can transcend in to some other reality, some other form of living. Doesn't that also remind you of Colombo finding America, or man walking on the moon. Now we are discovering unlimited numer of planets that we didn't even know that they are existing. We are just moving "from computer to computer" and conquering more "space" to develop. Suddenly we also proved that there are also more dimensions than we thought, that we can expand in our conquest even further, but where exactly, we are still not sure. What we are explaining as a God, I can see that virus thinking of electricity and explaining it the same. They know that something gives them life, but they just can explain it. What would happen if we just switch of the power on that computer? Are they going to disapear? Some of them will, but some of them need to physically be removed, while some probably can never be removed until we format the hard drive. But what are those viruses, how do you explain their existance? We can't see what is their reality, for us they are just magnetic force on hard disk and we can never touch them, or we can, but we will never feel that touch because we are not made to feel magnetic forces. But we know that they exist, we created them, but I don't think they know that we exist. They certanly know that there is something, electric power witch gives them life, but how and where is that created, they can just guess like we are gessing what God is. For them everything is God also, it is inside them, making them one also, but they will never know that we can switch of that power and they will disapear. Or we can just neutralise magnetic force on the hard disk and they will again disapear even if there is still electric power. It is very clear that they will never know about us, they will only know the results of our will, shell we give them another computer to multiply, or shel we destroy them completely. Now, look at the global warming, polution, unexplained processes of nature.............isn't there a similarity. How do we know that we are not just another virus that our God let live long enough to reach this level of consciousnes? Than we can easily say that nothing matters, but its not truth. Truth is that for any reason we were given this life and we should make it count, we should enjoy it to fullest and be gratefull that nobody switched the power off yet. Instead of making each others misserable we should make this world better for everyone, at the end of the day, it was given to us by higher force or entity and we don't have right to take it away from anybody. In the begining, everything looked like circles, we are doing same things again and again, doing circles in the circles, but now we discovered that circles are boring and that we can do more, so we started doing spirales. We started doing circles over the spirals, moving across dimesions or realities, but no matter how far we go on that spiral, we still need to come back to our basic circle. I will continue some other time...
