RE: Seeing through the illusions of our senses
Now is it not funny that we place contradictory terms right next to each other, which shows that language itself has long "understood" this. They are oxymorons indeed. I would like to object

RE: Some thoughts on life, change, and evolution.
Modern humans, who seem to think themselves the dumbest species on the planet and want to regulate everything from biology to social behaviour, regularly underestimate themselves in their evolutionary

RE: We’re all approaching the same elephant in the room – just from different angles of perception
Agree. All roads lead to Rome, but there are roads longer than others. Good post. Cheers!

RE: Doing nothing: The reason why it is often the best option.
I have realised that asking questions is often the better way to be truthful with each other. With the disappointing result that I have to admit that I have not yet mastered the art of asking questions.

RE: Doing nothing: The reason why it is often the best option.
It hints at what we've talked a lot about: that nothing stays fixed but changes. How is it possible that nothing stays fixed and at the same time change? :) Can you give an example, though? Well, most

I like it. Although also, the more wrong you do the right thing, the less right it is. If you’re doing the wrong thing and you make a mistake and correct it you become wronger. This part reminds me of

RE: On whether power tends to corrupt
It seems it came out in just one flow? Maybe... I don't remember. :) I have been told that I have a bad memory, but sometimes I find myself remembering seemingly insignificant things. In this case, I don't

RE: Mind vs reality: on assumptions and labels
What they didn't realize is that it is often more accurate to slowly and carefully define what something is "not" instead of trying to dive directly into what something "is". Absolutely

Magnificent interpretation and perfectly linked to the post. I agree.

RE: The actual quality of our eternal self is that of being in love
Yes we transcend the gender of our temporary physical identity, but we have an eternal permanent identity and gender. Yeah, that may make sense to me too. Thanks for the explanation. See ya.

RE: The difference between believing in the truth and knowing the truth
Totally. I often see this contradiction that we sometimes have in our behavior, as if we don't agree with ourselves. One part says something, and another does something else. There is no harmony. There

RE: Fear of the Mask
So I wonder what has wired my monkey brain to think that medical masks are the devils work and I need to get the fuck away from people who wear them. Monkey brain, wise. Masks, not good. Sometimes it's

RE: Is Royalty really dead?
Well, Britain has a queen, and they are, in fact, a monarchy, so if absolutism were to return it wouldn't be such a surprise. It would be if something like that happened in the United States, for example.

RE: The actual quality of our eternal self is that of being in love
Obviously love means a lover and a beloved. There are two, not one. The concept of losing personality and merging into oneness is denied in this verse. I guess that's one way of looking at it. But I have

RE: What the Hell Are You Talking About?
Maybe they don't know what the hell they're talking about. Some time they told me that if I knew something, I had to know how to explain it with pears and apples, and that if I couldn't do that, I really

Interesting. It is possible that I have overlooked some things, because I am not as used to listening in English, as I am to reading it, but interesting. What was your interpretation of what the cube

RE: Mind vs reality: on assumptions and labels
I largely agree. For me the labels are usually not completely right, yet not completely wrong either. They are an attempt by our mind to recognize patterns and thus know the unknowable. But it is one thing
