Title: THE MEANING OF LIFE Post by: ghost on September 21, 2011, 05:40:28 PM What is it? To discuss the Beach Boys here? To love God with all your heart, soul, and mind? To spread your DNA and die knowing your genetic lineage continues proudly? To seek enlightenment to escape death? To realize we are all god, all is god, playing hide-and-seek in duality for fun? To forget unity - as the ancient myth says? Unity begat Duality which begat Trinity - whence came One? From None? Zero - as the Buddhists will say? Nothingness. A star dies and becomes a black hole. What happens to man upon death? Can consciousness be born or die? Only that which is ultimately unreal dies [changes]. Change is the characteristic of this persistent non-persistent world, of maya, of illusion. The changeless principle, this we seek. That which unites opposites, dissolves boundaries. Within the mind, vacuous space. Life is but a ripple on the cosmic ocean, the universe has a million eyes with which it sees ITSELF.
Title: Re: THE MEANING OF LIFE Post by: ghost on September 21, 2011, 05:53:52 PM Life "to me" is all puddles, rainbows, grass, bugs, birds, sky, clouds, stars, space, sun, moon. Know what I mean? It all just appears like a play of the elements in many forms, including us human organisms. It's the psychedelic universe. The chameleon on the tree branch slowly moving along. What is that? Why is that? Its very existence is the entire mystery of life. There is no purpose, no meaning. All just "is" and yet never really is. Nothing is, there's never a static moment except in memory. And memory is just a flash of lightning in a dark sky. In the center of the eye - the black hole. Every time you look at someone you're looking into the universe. The inner mind conciousness is the 'underworld', 'the beyond' - the other side of "this". We die into ourselves and are born into dreams to forget ourselves, like God. In his infinite freedom and creative play, God creates and destroys the universe, just for fun. Why do flowers bloom year after year? There is no meaning, no purpose, no "why". God is a presence not a person. The suchness of reality.

You should start a Tobelman-like website where you share your thoughts in a cohesive manner....really, you have some great ideas.

Of course many think like this - but you've summed it up in words quite nicely.

Title: Re: THE MEANING OF LIFE Post by: ghost on September 21, 2011, 06:31:23 PM enlightenment is a temporal lobe seizure
the two hemispheres of the brain harmonize the inner eye opens, the lotus blooms in the skull when they harmonize they disappear like the point inbetween breaths or thoughts or worlds or lives - anything, the point inbetween is not a point it is a void center, a point of nothingness when the mind stops - completely it is so sudden, it is a total shock that is the beginning of the temporal lobe seizure samadhi, nirvana, all mean this experience you have to conserve your essence and transform it within your body into consciousness energy you must not waste essence but conserve it till it overflows that is the ecstasy there is real religious ecstasy to be known in this world for us human beings to know - i am a human being yet sometimes experience these things but also much suffering like you it comes from not coming coming is actually going your energy leaves you when it stays within you, it goes to the brain sexual energy and semen leaves the genitals and goes up the spine [brain stem] to the higher brain it illuminates the entire nervous system, resevered sexual energy but the key is - ONLY if you know how to awaken it still and channel it upwards if you just don't express it, it becomes represseion the energy then wants outward-downward expression [coming] instead of reoriented upwards-inwards expression [it rises to the brain as spiritual orgasms] so you have to know how to love instead of lust, raise your aesthetic vibration change your perspective, see from new higher heights see subjectively, see each being as a unique manifestation of god the psychedelic reality in luminous appearance Title: Re: THE MEANING OF LIFE Post by: Amazing Larry on September 21, 2011, 07:20:14 PM That was beautiful, Ghost. It sounds like mushrooms.
Title: Re: THE MEANING OF LIFE Post by: ghost on September 21, 2011, 07:38:06 PM yes the message of the plant gods appears to be, you are life, love yourself

You must really have some questionably legal skeletons in your closet. chan sites that aren't "the big one" are very easy to get banned from, you just have to not agree with a mod or something.i wonder how a brian wilson thread on that music board would go Title: Re: THE MEANING OF LIFE Post by: puni puni on September 23, 2011, 08:47:50 PM as for the meaning of life, it's probably burgers
Title: Re: THE MEANING OF LIFE Post by: Amazing Larry on September 23, 2011, 08:56:11 PM I wonder if it was even Ghost posting recently, his typing style changed. Almost no caps.
Title: Re: THE MEANING OF LIFE Post by: puni puni on September 23, 2011, 09:04:11 PM we need a petition or something to get ghosty back
