We will not go into what you just said but the fact remains that you have to deal with waking up everyday... the point is how you assimilate the ideas with the present "I need to wake up" reality...Originally posted by An Eternal Now:Whether you think or not, time is not as what most people think.
Same as 'self'. Whether you think about your self, there never was a truly existing self, only a momentary self (self1, self2, self3) made up of mental and karmic factors that isn't even a 'self'.
Since 'self' is unreal, it is just a matter of whether you have the insights to see it as it is. Many mistake their identification with the body-mind as absolute. Even so, the truth remains that there never was a truly existing self.

You're saying what I said is messy?Originally posted by AndrewPKYap:In order to do that, you must first assimilate the concepts and ideas that you are so fond of cutting and pasting into a cohesive point of view that you grasp in your own mind.
What I am saying is that when you are confronted with a difficult question, you look around for something that you think answers the question and then cut and paste it as a post.Originally posted by An Eternal Now:You're saying what I said is messy?

I am not saying that you cannot do that, I am saying that you will not learn anything by doing that. Reading the answers over and over again....I type everything and I have the ability to type... very fast
You need to be able to "criticize" it. Not find fault with it. Understand it through "criticism".
Writers cannot write everything in a sentence of paragraph. Each sentence and paragraph has "problems" and the writer might address the issue later on.
You seem unable to recognize the "necessarily, temporary problems" in each sentence or paragraph and simply swallow everything hook line and sinker - cut and paste - wholesale...
That is not the way. This shows that you do not understand the text.
When someone ask you a question, you must be able to pick from this paragraph or sentence and from another paragraph or sentence and even from another paragraph in another book....
That would show that you understand the topic, issue at hand.
That is what you call awareness and mindfulness...
Haha.. just because i questioned the logic of some of your illogical statements? Then it is You who have very narrow views and lack the ability to see alternative views.Originally posted by AndrewPKYap:I don't remember what your original statement was... but you probably have very narrow views and lack the ability to see alternative views.
You may type very fast, but I still believe you are mainly typing nonsense.Originally posted by An Eternal Now:* typist
Okay, i understand now. You have found the Matrix!Originally posted by AndrewPKYap:This is like taking a walk going nowhere and simply observing as you walk. In the mean time, you are building up your body as a result of the exercise.
You might think that taking a walk and observing what you see along the way is useless if you are not walking towards any destination....
You are wrong.![]()
You have alternative views? hahahaha bring them out if you dare....Originally posted by ulquiorra87:Haha.. just because i questioned the logic of some of your illogical statements? Then it is You who have very narrow views and lack the ability to see alternative views.
Sorry, you will still have wrinkles because Change exists even if Time does not exist.Originally posted by morbid4ever:I hope time do not exist. So I will never have wrinkles in my face![]()
You found the Matrix because of this thread? Good for you. Congratulations!Originally posted by Chuichi Koshiramaru:Okay, i understand now. You have found the Matrix!
This is an exercise... if you do not contribute, you only think you know what is going on... cut and paste is so easy with google, but useless.Originally posted by eagle:Time is a philosophical term that I will not bother to explain.
If anyone is interested in it, the following website does explain a little:

I shall just "cut and paste" simply because it has already been studied for centuries, and the much more professional views are out there.
Thank you.

Well it turned out that the reason is so that people like you can see the fallacies in their own heads....Originally posted by eagle:An exercise is one that you should do research and answer with.
Since you know it is so easy to get the answer, why bother to even set it?
No problem, you win!!!!Originally posted by eagle:The answer is, you have clearly lost out in the debate.
You can poll the forum for them to judge.
Thank you thank you!Originally posted by AndrewPKYap:No problem, you win!!!!
