What is an example of a part that doesn't change? That would be an interesting list, but you only asked for one. I'll focus on the one idea. If I asked someone to empty out my garage of everything and put it in a pile in the lawn, what would I have? Besides an empty garage, I would have one pile of...

In everything I do, reality responds accordingly. Are you yourself not a part of reality? If so, then how can reality respond to what you do? No disrespect intended, but since you're the respondent(part of reality), you're in the ideal place to answer the question. I'm not asking you to answer...ex...

What is an example of a part that doesn't change? - That would be an interesting list, but you only asked for one. I'll focus on the one idea.

You're just talking about cause and effect, aren't you? That everything has causes and produces effects....? - Not entirely....but certainly some (regarding cause and effect). It seems to me reality has parts that change and parts that don't. Of those two, only the changeable parts are subject to c...

Feeling a little better. Good enough for a quick comment. What you described is hard for me to relate too (as you expected). Since you and I have both been in the trades, is there anyway you can reference your work experience to explain your perspective? Hi Gary, Good to hear you're getting back to...

You're brain is a follical. The challenge is simple, insults aren't required. All that's required is one instance, one example. One example where reality does not respond accordingly. I challenge you to provide one falsifying example. Only one, that's all it will take. Take Gary No takers... I'll t...

In everything I do, reality responds accordingly.

Is that what's actually happening? Does that describe what's going on?

Does

Thanks and by all means you can ask. Today I'm in the world of the flu...I'd love to explore your comments...once I'm feeling better. Feeling, Gary Wishing you a speedy recovery, Gary, while eagerly, but patiently, awaiting your return. Bob M. Feeling a little better. Good enough for a quick commen...

"The World of the Spirit." What's that about? In the simplest terms possible...please Here's my best shot at describing the 'World of the Spirit' for now, Gary. It's also a good exercise for myself for the present moment. Thanks for asking, as it helps in my own ongoing spiritual developm...

Interesting. I can imagine what you mean. But in what way, through what medium, will you receive organizing information about 'what is going on'? It sounds like you won't be able to receive 'it' intellectually---it would take some time just to get familiar with philosophy, the structure of your own...

I'll bet you say that to all the boys... You asked 'what's happening'? 'Gary dies". Straight up. If you've been in construction for 30 years you may have noticed constructions perish. Yes I have noticed that, but there's more. While it may be the case that all construction (and constructor) pe...

Thanks Bob for sharing your mindset. I'm the straight up type, being in construction will do that to a person. I've had to learn, some, the hard way. I call it learning by fire, not the most preferred methodology. It involves way to much talking (yelling). Anyways I've learnt to rely on simple fund...

Well, one of our first jobs was for a German or Austrian contractor who took advantage of us right across the board. We built a stair set from the street down along the side of the garage to the main house. We had it up but only loosely tacked together before setting bolts. Someone came along and t...

Sounds like a call to mediocrity...please explain...I might be missing something important.

'Gary's' on Death Row.
'Gary' gets old, sick and dies.
'Gary's' concerned about mediocrity.
'Gary' wants special status.

Straight up.

I'll bet you say that to all the boys...

So now I want to get to know this reality thing. I want to get to know it so I can understand what's going on. Hence my first question, how many realities exist? Hi Gary, From my own personal life experiences, which has included much suffering and change both inward and outward, I've come to find t...

You might be also not at all missing something. Is it just me or is it somewhat clearly distinguishable how each opiner so far gives the sense, as with that famous line in The Princess Bride (!) that they are 'selling something'? It seems to me that we make an error when we conclude things too quic...

I know there are changeable parts and unchangeable parts, of reality. I know reality is a bit tricky that way. May I ask two questions of you Gary? What parts of reality do you think are changeable, and unchangeable? Can you give examples. Why do you think reality is 'a bit tricky'? Sure...you can ...

What's going on? Ego's accord themselves 'special' status. Once this delusion is entrenched. Ego runs a 'special' project or 'Noble Cause'. To keep their 'specialness' intact necessitates them having to 'beat up' everyone else. Reason has failed. Take a cup to the Ocean. Dip it in and pull it out. ...

I started out as labor, packing lumber, then became a carpenter(self employed for a long time), After 20 yrs of that I moved on as site supe...
