Guess who provides significance?

Human Being.

I don't care if a vase is Tang, tong ting greek or belgian.
doesn't matter if it's fresh or ancient.
It's a collection of molecules,
a collection of atoms,
a collection of sub atomic particles,
a collection of signifiers that leads to nothing.

Human Being is a Context.
Meaning Maker.
In the bullshit business.

Hey, download IEspell, will you?

Don't give me the air is clear BS. It is fetid with the stench of Tomas' small mindedness. If it's so fucking clear, what will you say the next time your new butt-buddy recycles his own flatulence once again? Let's se who brings it up again.READ THE FUCKING FORUM. Find out where the ill-will trail began. Then we'll talk. Talk about ideas, not personalities, which is this asshole's apparent forte.

Hey Tomas - you will never get rid of me, Fuck-Face. You don't even know how to pronounce forte.

You should examin what drives the human to provide meaning and the 'numbers' behind that mechanism, the moon in the water may or not be an absolute imagining, but we shouldn't cast it aside, the moon lets us travel, an endless journey.

You've caught them out as liars and cheats Tomas.
well done!

bullshit artists.

Tomas - looks like you finally got the butt-buddy you've wanted for so long. Once again, you are ignorant, you think you are clever, and your arm is still in a sling from patting yourself on the back.

And you Dennis, you are such a phony. You hypocrite. Everything is fucking meaningless except an old man's gossip and misguided personal vendettas. That's right - sit on your loathsome bloody arse and judge people who have actually done something with their lives.

You are too lazy to use capital letters or form complete sentences. It's no wonder you are too lazy to find meaning in anything. I "geddit." I "grok." You are a bag of hot air who is threatened by ideas and by life itself.

Tomas I almost don't mind your ravings because although you accuse me of being a sock-puppet, you are more two-faced than any sock puppet. You suck up to authority (the way you drill your tongue up QRS ass-cracks)but will attack just about anyone else. The service makes people that way. Maybe being forced to kill at a young age does this to people. I never killed anyone, so I don't know. You get a mulligan for being the twisted creep that you are. But you would think you would get tired making a point that nobody gives a shit about. Oh, but not you. Sad to see that an old man spends so much time trying so hard to gossip about people he doesn't even know.

Existence is a lie relative to absolute.
Catching the lie of relative existence discloses absolute.
Reason catches the lie and nips it in the bud so inordinate suffering is avoided.

Human being is a context with contents.
The contents like art are trivial.
The spotlight turns to Context.
Who, what am I?

The fact that existence and the things of existence are like 'moons in water'.
existence as 'situation',
existence as an Event.
dreamlike.
is best endured or embraced (mood) as a stunning absence of meaning.
there is no intrinsic meaning except for the meaning that is painted on it.
The lie is that it has meaning.
Case closed.

The truth about the greek statue is that it has no value at all.
It only has a value crafted on to it by a meaning maker.


Therefore human being is meaning maker.

However, it is also true for me that such an awareness is impossible to sustain in every moment of being intellectually sentient; human thinking continues even when one has seen through its dead-end, self righteous ways.

I have found, for me, that the only Way I can live in the recycling world of the 'meaning machine' is by Being the Meaning of Meaning's death, which has a language of Meaning all its own.

Existence persists and demands a response.
Your response is your stand.
You can't get out of the way.
Nowhere to hide.
Nowhere to run.
It's full on.
the endless pilgrimage of sentience.
fast flowing river.

Pam: I have found, for me, that the only Way I can live in the recycling world of the 'meaning machine' is by Being the Meaning of Meaning's death, which has a language of Meaning all its own.

Dennis: A way of Being.
A who you are Being.
An enlightened 'conveyance' negotiating rapids?
not completely rudderless.

I know what is my rudder; what is yours?

I, Dennis, exist.
dependant on mind/body and causes/conditions as wide as the Universe.
I, Dennis, exist for the time being.
I, Dennis, exist as a piece/part of a Totality, a living process.
My job is to break thru' suffering and live intelligently.

You sell what you can sell. There was another guy who posted around the time that I first signed on who managed a gallery in the NY area, but he didn't say what style of art he sold and if it was in Manhatten. I have a few emails into brokenhead (believe me, for otherthe reasons!) but have not heard back for a couple of weeks. Stranger coincidences have occurred. David worked in a gallery in Melbourne actually.

Cousin, please pm me, I am really curious to know where you worked!

Woah! So are you Brokenhead or not? I wouldn't know who Brokenhead is if I didn't see a discussion between him/you and Kevin Solway while browsing the forum.

Tomas wrote: Bigger whoa! Last Sunday, he PMd me as Cousinbasil (after an Alex sockpuppet had earlier PMd) me, asking (me) why I hadn't PMd him first! Who was I supposed to PM? Brokenhead or his sockpuppet Cousinbasil...

There are, at least six sockpuppets (Alex says maybe seven) usernames between them.

Which begs the question .. why would I PM (them) when that would only make me an ancillary conspirator to the rest of you. Kinda like a confidential agreement to keep the Admin (Dan) in the dark thus making any:
Discussion of the nature of Ultimate Reality and the path to Enlightenment - devoid of inherent meaning.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For Wikipedia policy on sockpuppets, see Wikipedia:Sock puppetry

A sockpuppet is an online identity used for purposes of deception. The term—a reference to the manipulation of a simple hand puppet made from a sock—originally referred to a false identity assumed by a member of an internet community who spoke to, or about himself while pretending to be another person.[1] The term now includes other uses of misleading online identities, such as those created to praise, defend or support a third party or organization.[2] A significant difference between the use of a pseudonym[3] and the creation of a sockpuppet is that the sockpuppet poses as an independent third-party unaffiliated with the puppeteer.

The term "sockpuppet" was used as early as July 9, 1993[4] but did not become common in USENET groups until 1996. The first Oxford English Dictionary example of the term, defined as "a person whose actions are controlled by another; a minion," is taken from U.S. News and World Report, March 27, 2000.[5]

I'm not sure that you are using the word sockpuppet consistently here. Alex is know to be Alex. Cousinbasil and Brokenhead never posted together.

Alex didn't announce his sockpuppet TA.
It was discovered.
Are you trying to muddy the waters?
If so,
Why?

Tomas,
You've made the Case.
It's rational.

Those exposed by the uncompromising light of Reason tend to run away and flood the area they are leaving with verbal abuse as they run away.

Just checking if people are not adding insult to injury here. : )
