Consciousness Cycles

Consciousness Cycles
The middle way exists as the thread of consciousness, that is occupied by with the vibration of physical existence and while the universe rotates in an everlasting eternal cycle, encompassing the whole of existence while expanding in time and space. We live in a constant present of vibration, yin and yang, up and down, left and right, pushing and pulling, trying to even out, become sane, become one, become conscious, become eternal. Become God.

RE: Consciousness Cycles
I don't fully agree with this, but you are on to something... We all hold dichotomies. We are all existing in a present, that is a palimpsest of our pasts. Consciousness... how we perceive our surroundings... there is no ultimate Truth, just our own truths... Hmmm... I've been considering on this matter myself this evening. (appropriate Freudian slip, I had to correct my typing of ourselves rather than myself)

Nothing and Something. Something, light can be seen in the darkest of points. Light always overtakes darkness eventually, this is proven true by existence existing.

This sounds like something I'd hear while a Cheshire Cat grinned in the background.

Are you a Taoist? All this talk about opposites certainly sounds like it. I'm not saying it's a bad thing, but I'm just wondering what your point is in the end.

The Mad Hatter to the Door Mouse: What kind of dressing would you like on your word salad?

Door Mouse to nobody inparticular (right as he passes out): Butter!

The March Hare: HAS ANYONE GOT THE TIME!?

Forward, backward, inward, outward
Come and join the chase
Nothing could be drier
Than a jolly caucus race

Backward, forward, outward, inward
Bottom to the top
Never a beginning,
There can never be a stop

To skipping, hopping, tripping fancy free and gay
Started it tomorrow
But will finish yesterday

'Round and 'round and 'round we go
Until forevermore
For once we were behind
But now we find we are be-

Foreward, backward, inward, outward
Come and joing hte chase
Nothing could be drier
Than a jolly caucus race!

Actually you almost got the code right in the OP it is actually up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A, Start. It works in many Konami games.

Start at your navel for too long and soon you will find that your head goes right up your ass.

A very merry unbirthday to you ezak; I look forward to many future posts of yours that I will barely be able to decipher.

Alas, no, I wasn't that close on my first bash so I just copy pasted. The only bit I have fully memorized is this:

Twas' brillig and the slithy toves,
Did gyre and gimbel in the wabe,
All mimsy were the boregoaves,
And the momerathes out grabe!

The only reason I have it memorized is because the Cheshire Cat sang it several times in the Disney version of Alice in Wonderland.
