I get the Tom. Maybe y'all should try to chill and get him too.
You want the truth? You can't handle the truth

the worst thing about confusion is that when you try to clear it up with your own confused mind, it just gets compounded.

I see that about whatever your view you just keep on keeping on.
Like my view is that I am a part of nature and so is love but that doesn't stop my thoughts feelings and behaviour from being present or my love either.
That's the thing. What is is. It doesn't matter what bullshit you project on to it.

I am like a juggernaut smashing through people's emotions. Not great. What can you do?
Anyway lovely to have you hear and lovely too to talk about how everyone views the world and the nature of reality.
I'm enjoying reading and responding.

No that's only what experience is showing you. That's not truth.
Sure the truth is different experiences exist but that's not reality!
I mean it depends what you mean.
Blarg beautifully captured what the blue sky is. He's much smarter than me and more eloquent too.
But you know that frequency or vibration of energy or whatever you'd like to call it exists.
However it's experienced and whether it's experienced or not.
Nature is an objective truth!

Well I hope you are right Carla. It's tough upsetting people.
I don't take it that personally when people criticise me. I think I don't exist!

I'm sorry.
I won't post here again.
Good luck everyone

By thinking you don't exist, a person relieves themselves of any and all responsibility, accountability for their actions or thoughts. They feel they can do or say anything, not having to answer to any man. (They are atheists, since God also doesn't exist, no accountability there) . Any repercussions for their actions are dealt with by denial, denial that the self exists.

"You" do not exist. Sounds like the central revelation of Buddhism, minus the belief in personal re-incarantion that it imported from Hinduism).

The concept of the self is entirely different in Buddhism than toms version. tom exists only as chemicals evolved from the big bang (his version). The "self" of Buddhism is a fascinating subject. Toms denies the self as existing, literally. Buddhism speaks of there being no "self" in an entirely different context.
"I know all really. You want the truth? You can't handle the truth".
With this, I shall take leave.
