Re: the underground man

Sorry, I was rude earlier.

perhaps this is the situation.

I'm looking at a bee in a bottle. How a bee is in a bottle.
You both are saying there is no bottle and may go further and say there is no bee to get out of the no-bottle.

Re: the underground man

I could be a smartarse and tell you that you have just given me more structure Kelly but I won't because I respect you as a leader in the conversation. Are you saying by this: But someone saying that there is no ultimate structure, can reflect the meaning of that statement onto their saying that the...

Re: the underground man

I just want to clarify my argument. There appears to be a logical contradiction that a critic could use to defeat it. The basis of the reasoning is that the Ego arises due to a feeling of lack and then seeks a solution in order to fix that lack. The critic could then respond that I have argued that ...

Re: the underground man

Hi Kelly, I'm inclined to pursue a line of reasoning with you in order to give rise to a possible explanation as to why the QRS conversation experiences difficulties, a condition you in particular appear to notice and mention. That is, that the conversation experiences difficulties. It's possible th...

Re: the underground man

Yes. Also, those things (concepts) are the tools, and once they've done their work, can be laid to rest. Good work Kelly. K's valuable pointer about the positive assistant professor resonates also. Causation's conveyor belt has me sometimes for the time being immersed in the space of the ego or ens...

Re: the underground man

Hi Kelly, Because doctrine is the indolence of aping and mimicking for the learner, and doctrine is the way to sensate power for the teacher, for doctrine collects men. That concept is one of the great bullshit busters of all time. It's easy to see how the K experience translates so harmoniously int...

What do you mean when you say 'being real'? At the moment you are trying to punch above your weight. You are David going up against Goliath without a sling shot.

No he aint sagely but it's a possibility. He leaves his tracks in the snow as it were. His identifications. He identifies a platform, a performer and a performance.

Re: Alex and racism

Could any of those 'Mexican canaries' know Mexico?

Did Mexico exist prior to the advent of human being?

Does Mexico really exist in and of itself independantly and permanently apart from human being or does Mexico require the human mind for existance?

Re: Alex and racism

Our minds exist because of 'Mexico'.
Is Mexico a product of the Human mind.?
Has Mexico in fact been invented?

Could we equate the invention of Mexico with the invention of Cinderella if we indeed discovered that Mexico is in fact an invention.

Re: Alex and racism

Mexico exists in a really unusual way
Thanks for your reply.
But please listen carefully.

Does Mexico actually exist independantly of the human mind or is it dependant on the human mind for its existance?

Hi Alex, I want to ask you in what way does a Mexican exist? and even if Mexico exists? Do these things exist naturally or do they arise or depend for their existence on a convention between human minds? A sort of handshake between humans..an agreement. If we got a hold of a so called Mexican and cu...

Re: Deaf to Non-duality!

Have you flipped your lid? IT's got to be structured up rightly. Saying out loud 'I am not' appears to be absurd in the saying of it. Now you have certainty that I Am. This I Am has features like the subject/ object split. Me here and the World there. When in conversation you will actually have an ...

Re: Deaf to Non-duality!

Hi Kelly, We can structure up to enable access to the true nature. Let's take Alex into consideration. He's got a World Projection that seeks to make it solid and concrete. His projection is that Buddhism, Tao, A=A etc are platforms that give rise to a performer and a performance and he wants to 'te...

If a person is really strongly attached to categorising things, and believes this amounts to true knowledge, then he hasn't sufficient doubt to be open to "infinite possibilities". By skillful means the attachment can be loosed. But Alex has admitted that it means nothing to him. people lie in the ...

I don't lose sight of Alex's true nature when observing his behaviour. But I agree with the idea that casting pearls before swine is foolish.

Re: Deaf to Non-duality!

Yes, I'm serious and yes what you say is correct that you have to be caused to enlightenment.

and in saying that, the point of this forum is solely to cause that enlightenment in seekers by skilfull means.

Much of the groundwork is taken up by the process of having the seeker be coachable.

Re: Deaf to Non-duality!

Hi Kelly, perhaps its not the drift of a Boddhisattva to give up. Realising causation reveals Alex will change one way or another. It's being with Alex in that flux...seeing the possibility of Alex...having the conversation with Alex around that great possibility Alex really is in his true nature......
