Age, Too much Advaita teachers have you read. The habbit of questioning every concept we use in order to make an appearance of learning. WHO exactly IS the one who WANTS to KNOW WHAT? (this is an example of what you do). Making the other person think about the asumptions we have about concepts like ...

Observation is interaction, the two are inseperable giving both rely on action and reaction. As such the universe is self-aware, because of not only the interactions occur within it, but also because only "everything" exists. Only "everything" exists results in self-referentiali...

1. Unity is the connection of parts. 2. Parts necessitate a separation. 2- Parts dont necessitate a separation, because the separation itself are the parts.... There are only "parts", and that "parts" is what we call "separation". 1- Unity, as "the connection of p...

Simplify the universe to a 3 color pixels (Blue, Green and Red). How we define "Blue"? We can say "that is Blue", pointing to the Blue pixel. Or we can say that "Blue" is "no-Green and no-Red". Both are definitions of "Blue". There is no thing that h...

bahman? you will answer?

This is what happens when you follow false gurus. You become a spiritual nihilist.

You understand what God is. Now, you must to make a theory of what is Good and Evil based on that.

bahman,

Your aim is to reach your destination so sensations and emotions do not matter. Thoughts also cannot help you since if they could you would choose a proper road. Yet you are able to choose.

So, in a free choise there are NO sensation, NO emotions and NO thoughts?

bahman, "Sorry, I should have said: It is not a free choice if it is biased by the smell of bacon." Ok. But I dont get it, when is free choice then? Stick with the example of the left or right in the road. When I dont have thoughts, and so I dont have thoughts like "I think is better ...

By free I mean that your decision is not biased by options. Think of a situation in which you are on a road that takes you to a destination. Suddenly the road forks and you don't know which road to take. You cannot be biased with one of the roads yet you are free to choose one. Think of a situation...

Click. See, there he goes again. The hardcore determinist accusing me of failing to realize that which I was never able not to realize if my brain matter is wholly in sync with the immutable laws of matter. Instead, as with all the other free will determinists, he merely assumes that "somehow&...

There are only 2 options, Determinism vs Azar There is no such a thing like "free will". When people who defends "free will" try to define it, what happens is that they dont define nothing or they define what we call Azar, and so there is no need to call it "free will" ...

¿? There are.

I can explain all about that, but in order to do that, we need to start for the begining.

When you define the origin of the universe, you create the axioms wich are defined to make later the theorems.

And things like "love" are explained easly.

My mind was not created. Just think about it, I am free therefore I am the uncaused cause. Sorry, can you explain to me what do you mean by "free to choose" ? Let see if you really want to learn, ok? By free I mean that your decision is not biased by options. Think of a situation in which...

NO. "love" is just a human emotion that ocurrs when you connect to something in a intense way. You cannot understand that if I dont define "intense". Because, we must to separate what "connecting with another human" is from "connecting with a bullet in your head&qu...

Yes, I am uncaused caused sine I am free to choose. You did not chose to be born you idiot. My mind was not created. Just think about it, I am free therefore I am the uncaused cause. Sorry, can you explain to me what do you mean by "free to choose" ? Let see if you really want to learn, ok?
