oh my fav part is the quote from Einstein that we should look for reality and not what we want to see.... vs the idea that we can change reality with our imagination.... doublethink much?

/e plus the unsolicited nasty pm he sent me.... congrats on that.... with all the assholes, racists, trolls, partisan hacks and loons in PaRD, Eti_fr is the first person I've ever blocked. That is an accomplishment.

I like Plato D: And the Matrix.

Hardly.

Again, thanks for the free bumps, I love so much when this thread is at the top of PaRD



For those who did not read it the first time, and throw your hate and spam here, you just make my point better (and help keep this thread on top)... please keep going.




Since you blocked me from pm I have to answer you here (will be my last words to you in this thread, you can insult me how much you want I will not answer anymore...) --> I do not judge anyone like you do as I can notice in that quote. I do not imagine anything, and I do not know what you mean with "smarter"... this concept is subjective and part of the balanced life anyway.
True intelligence is awareness of the truth/life/present.
My only purpose is to help myself and other truth seekers (people who understand they are more than their minds, and that their body is part of the physical world --> subject to the balance of physical life and will die... possibly tomorrow or even during this night), to become more aware of the truth/life/present moment.
The goal of life is just to be more aware of life, and our world would be a heaven if the majority of mankind would be aware of this fact.
The day I was the more aware of truth/life/present is the day I was born in this lifespan, this day I had no deception/lies/illusions in my life, only the present moment.
After this day I have been educated in lie/deception and illusion like everyone else (not exactly the same of course, we all have different environment, parents and education). Now I have to re-educate myself to try my best to reach same the level of awareness of the life I had the day I was borned.
About the quote from Einstein in my signature, you obviously do not understand it.
You can not change reality... It is already here, but you only listen to your mind (what you think), rather than looking for what is (reality).

One more quote from Morpheus "I'm trying to free your mind, Neo. But I can only show you the door. You're the one that has to walk through it."
I guess this one is actually from Jesus (if you remove "Neo").

George Carlin was wise.

No, Plato's cave allegory is literally in Philosophy 101 first chapter, along with "Story of the Good Brahmin".

My post was aimed at his attempt to downplay the importance of it.

I quoted this bit in a formal debate once. Roflstomp'd the opposition with it.

Thanks again for free bumps.



From page 13 of The Present http://www.truthcontest.com/entries/the-present-universal-truth/big-picture-life-present.html

You're (well the book you quote) is just slinging around a bunch of ill defined terms. It's mumbo-jumbo.
