Re: I have Realized the Infinite

David Quinn: "Weasel", "suspicious", "agenda" - such nice friendly words from a kindred spirit. Jason: What's the problem exactly David? Don't you think I was being nice and friendly enough? Perhaps David momentarily forgot the ethos of the forum - spiritual allies cau...

What would you consider to be a delusion that could be caused by emotion, jupiviv?

Re: What is the consciousness of a woman really like?

There's no way to answer any of this definitively, except to say that, given a choice, I would prefer that this hypothetical man didn't drool, stammer and speak in a high pitched voice. You realize you've just crushed David? oh, and if they smell woodsy, like cedar and fresh pine...well, that's alw...

I'm not sure that people do seek the infinite within the finite. Can you give me a specific example of how people do this.

Re: I have Realized the Infinite

David Quinn: [Things] certainly have existence, but it is an illusion nonetheless. I've always liked the Buddha's illustration of this, in which he twirled a flame around and around in a circle so that it formed a ring of light. The ring of light certainly appears to exist and can be perceived by o...

Re: I have Realized the Infinite

When things are no longer grasped at, the entire question of their reality or illusoriness falls away into meaninglessness. When you say that things are "grasped at", are you referring to people believing(and grasping to that belief) that reality(as a whole) is a particular limited thing?...

Heh - quoting Weininger of all people(a favourite of David's, but seemingly not all that well known generally within philosophy circles) certainly isn't the best way to show that you're not an imitator. Whatever the case may be(imitator or not), my job of pointing out the possibility of mindless imi...

Re: I have Realized the Infinite

David, I asked for your definitions of "form" and "formlessness" and you responded: "Form" is synonymous with thing, object, process, phenomenon, etc. That is, any portion of the Totality. "Formlessness" refers to the way in which the Totality isn't a thing, o...

Re: What is the consciousness of a woman really like?

Yes, there has probably never been a man who was fully conscious, but that is the ideal. And there have been men who have reached close enough to it to understand that it is possible in reality. In fact, if you are able to be fully conscious for even a second, then that consciousness becomes true f...

Re: Dr. Who

Goodies sucked, it seemed like random brain-frying bs to me as a kid, and it was ugly as hell too(I feel almost nauseous looking at the pictures on Google Images now.) Monkey Magic was better than The Goodies. Tom Baker was the only Doctor Who I watched.

Re: What is the consciousness of a woman really like?

A classic expression of female sexuality, closely related to dressing in a feminine, sexual manner in order to turn men's heads. In both cases, the enjoyment lies in being so attractive that it disables man's minds. If she can't turn him into putty, then at least turning him into a raging animal th...

The image I'm getting from your words is of men randomly grabbing women out of nowhere. Well, I've been speaking about a psychological reality which can be expressed in many different ways, not just in the crude and obvious way that you seem to be latching onto. You've been referring again and agai...

You must have a very crude conception of dominance/submission dynamics, Jason, if you think these three examples represent an exception to them. Perhaps I do have a very crude conception of it, or perhaps it's that the dynamic has been very crudely expressed on this forum - and that crude expressio...

I've read of the studies that claim that being raped is a common sexual fantasy for women. What about men's sexual fantasies? Is raping a common sexual fantasy for men?

Re: What is the consciousness of a woman really like?

Well, it's a kind of rule-of-thumb that can be applied flexibly. For example, very passive girls wouldn't need much aggressiveness or force to persuade them to have sex. A passive, but slightly more assertive, male could probably do the trick. You realize that it's not rare for women, in certain en...
