yeah but I want to be in for the long haul here. Like I was on the first what are we thread. 

Do I want to know the truth?
Yes .

Let it go.

how to be happy if we dunno what we are ?

That's interesting Estren . Well my friend I'm always mindful .

I'm just observing right now with a view to observing what I am rather than to be healthy .

I'd like to see what's at the end of the rainbow my friend .

As for the general chit chat I love people and I love exploring the topic .

Sometimes the aggression gets weary but then I think well this thread is about what we are and everyone that contributes brings what they are to the thread.

So we learn through example as well as acquiring knowledge .

I'm going to be mindful and bring back the fish I catch .

Fb we can be happy through letting go . How can we be satisfied without knowing who we are , what we are . I guess it's a feature of life that we love to explore . To infinity and beyond !

If I have no free will then I can't control whether I observe or not . Is there anything that's truly me ?

I don't exist .

I went to pick up my son from school yesterday . I saw some parking spaces marked vip . I thought I really want to park in those !

It's funny how society conditions us to have a value . You are this , you aren't that . Hey I'll tell you what I am .

If I want to park in that space I bloody well will ! I am a vip !!!

Nikprit a few points and I'm going to be straight with you .

Mental illness .

Well firstly I'm a little surprised that you are talking about me being mentally ill in a chess forum . Wouldn't it be more appropriate to message me if you were concerned rather than feed the likes of md ?

Apart from that a couple of things .

I know some crazy people and I know some people that would be considered normal .

What matters to me my friend is not how sane a person is but how kind they are . I don't write a person off because they have mental problems .

Secondly you talk about your concern for me . Well actually my friend I'm happy . I enjoy expressing myself here and I enjoy meeting people such as yourself that are kind and intelligent and funny .

I enjoy seeing people enjoying each other here too . So how about you concentrate on your own happiness and leave me to worry about mine .

That said I do know you have a warm heart and I appreciate your concern but is it really professional to feed the piranhas by finger pointing and shouting mental illness ?!!!

By the way I was having a little joke when I said no when you asked me if the OCD symptoms remind me of myself . Sure I know I fixate . I guess humour sometimes gets missed talking this way .

But you know I'm interested in you all and I just hope to hear your own words rather than copy and paste .

Md when you say things like you have no family to me I stop reading . I just think how is that contributing anything ?

Still if you enjoy it good luck to you . Maybe you need an outlet .

I just don't get how I supposedly very into meditation guy can be so full of vitriol .

Still I know I'm mindful and calm and loving and I accept that when I come here I'm highly agitated . That's because here I let out my doubt and confusion .

Maybe I provide that for you Md and if that's so that's great

Nice to see you kaynight

If I have no free will then I cannot control whether I observe or not . Is there anything that's truly me ?

I do not exist .

But don't you see that the heading is a bit off? May I suggest a new thread with 24/7?

No it's like I said ! 8 till 9 except observing my consciousness . That's when I observe my mind creating problems and solutions. I'm currently interested in what I am and I'm sharing the related problems and solutions that my mind creates .

By the way I accept this chain of problems and solutions goes on forever , nature abhors a vacuum so problems and solutions will always occur mentally .

I find though that things do become clearer if you allow them to and I'm enjoying sharing that with you guys . Thank you for joining me

time is over, talkative friend ! 

seriously , since firts thread , i reinvented my behabiour, psuhing love forward with people, my daughter, etc ... it works !! i'll never forget that, ty, the most useful thread , the thread of thread.

What are we ? easy, it was just to think about this fundamental topic;

Complex ideas can enter consciousness automatically

Date:

San Francisco State University

Summary:

New research provides further evidence for 'passive frame theory,' the groundbreaking idea that suggests human consciousness is less in control than previously believed. The study shows that even complex concepts, such as translating a word into pig latin, can enter your consciousness automatically, even when someone tells you to avoid thinking about it. The research provides the first evidence that even a small amount of training can cause unintentional, high-level symbol manipulation.
