Consciousness Cycles
|
I've spent many hours whiling away my time in discussions about God, alternate realities, and <insert random BS here> so I'm familiar with the verbal tactics that are used to position oneself above others. The worst one, in my opinion, is to claim knowledge that is unexpressibly <insert beneficial quality here>. Either you have knowledge of a thing and can explain it in a way that will benefit others in a real way, or you don't.

When you say that consciousness is occupied by the vibration of physical existence, are you suggesting that all the vibrations of physical existence are conscious to at least some extent? What makes you think that the universe rotates in an everlasting eternal cycle? To my knowledge the latest scientific evidence, according to Lawrence Krauss, is that the universe will keep expanding indefinitely and there will be no big crunch/big bang cycle. And if there's a cycle, how can there be an everlasting expansion? If there's a cycle it would at some time have to return to a smaller less expanded form, would it not? Quote:We live in a constant present of vibration, yin and yang, up and down, left and right, pushing and pulling,[...] Energy vibrates. In that sense we live in a constant presence of vibration, yes. Opposites exist in the sense that there are true dichotomies, yes. But I don't see why they're Quote:[...]trying to even out, become sane, become one, become conscious, become eternal. Become God.
I'm wondering if this guy is, or is related to, Yoko Ono? That's not simply the usual random thing that popped into my head, just that the former Beatles-splitter is infamous for tweeting such bizarrely arcane and cryptic things as our friend here. I've personally been on the receiving end of platitudes like "Dance in your dream. Go out into the street and hug everybody you meet. Tell them how beautiful they are. Dance together" and "Make a promise to a tree. Ask it to be passed on to other trees", or one of her latest ones: "Of course the New York windows do, too. It's giving out blue vibes. I just became part of it."
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
Can we just get over Yoko breaking up the Beatles already??? >_< They were well on the way to splitsville before she even came along.
I just put that bit in so people would know which Yoko Ono I was talking about. Just in case.

Only with a brush of song, on the canvas of wishes standing on an easel of, I dunno, Twiglets or something.

Oh, FUCK YOU RHIZ. THAT SHIT IS IN MY HEAD NOW.
ezak420 is simply suffering from post-Halloween depression. This condition is characterised by the sudden urge to jump into forums and say "WOO!"
