You want to experience reality? Turn off the effing computer and step outside. Enough said!

Because you "don't get it".... why does that give you the right to slam China's thoughts and his messages of thought for us to think on.
Some people here enjoy the conundrums he delivers whether they are important in your world or not or whether you even comprehend the messages..... it just isn't all about you.... no need to insult.
Not at all. It ignores most inputs, filters and edits and often invents what it chooses to remember, and is much less accurate and complete when it comes to recall, because unlike a computer, the mind has an agenda created by its hopes and fears and wishes and desires and beliefs and so on.How the mind works is like a computer, it is programmed daily by what input it gathers.

From most people, I'd probably take offense at that, but you're too entertaining to be offensive. I wish I knew what you meant though. ;-)Dexter you have become a fine magician and astrologer. And I mean that as a sincere stringless compliment

Perhaps to you. To me, tats are simply artwork.An understood illusion is a perceived reality, based on knowledge and experience.
Example: A man with tattoos on his arm is perceived by knowledge of and a bad experience to be somewhat evil.
[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]lol I think the function of MY thinking is to analyse, formulate plans, process information, run my body, etc. Communications is only a part of it.[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Ok guys,let's go back to reality.Observe that thought cannot come upon the new; but when thought is silent, then there may be the new—which is immediately transformed into the old, into the experienced, by thought. Thought is ever shaping, modifying, coloring according to a pattern of experience. The function of thought is not to be in the state of experiencing but to communicate.[/FONT]
Perhaps your thoughts are as you say. Mine are constantly sucking up bits of reality and processing them even if I'm not cognizant of this process. The brain is ALWAYS thinking. It multitasks. It thinks even if you aren't aware of it thinking.When experiencing ceases, then thought takes over and terms it within the category of the known. Thought cannot penetrate into the unknown (you can't think about something you don't know) ,and so it can never experience reality......
Nuts. I can be content in the knowledge that some things are unknown to me. I find a certain security in that knowledge and that is certainly not denying it, that's simply accepting it......Achievement is security, the self-protective certainty of the known. To seek security in that which is nameless is to deny it.
Again, speak for yourself. Read my last comment.The security that may be found is only in the projection of the past, of the known.
When the thinking stops, you are dead or comatose. When you become unaware of your thinking, your mind is silent and it sure can be achieved through practise.For this reason the mind must be entirely and deeply silent; but this silence cannot be purchased through sacrifice, sublimation or suppression. This silence comes when the mind is no longer seeking, no longer caught in the process of becoming. This silence may not be built up through practice. This silence must be as unknown to the mind as the timeless; for if the mind experiences the silence, then there is the experiencer who is cognizant of a past silence; and what is experienced by the experiencer is merely a self-projected repetition.
Make up your mind. (heh heh. Been wanting to say that for quite some time now). You say at the front that the mind cannot experience anything new. Now you say that it can if it has become silent. Again, one is always thinking. If one stops thinking, one is dead or comatose. The desire to maintain this freedom gives continuity to the memory of the becomer, which is a hindrance to reality. Reality has no continuity; it is from moment to moment, always new, always fresh. What has continuity can never be created.[/quote]Thoughts have continuity and they are created; created by experiences, created by comparisons between experiences, etc.The mind can never experience the new, and so the mind must be utterly still. The mind can be still only when it is not experiencing, that is, when it is not terming or naming, recording or storing up in memory.This recording is a constant process of the different layers of consciousness, not merely of the upper mind. But when the superficial mind is quiet, the deeper mind can offer up its intimations. When the whole consciousness is free from all becoming, which is spontaneity, then only does the immeasurable come into being.
Again, speak for yourself. History is a part of reality. Get over it.[/FONT]The upper mind is only an instrument of communication; it cannot measure the immeasurable. Reality is not to be spoken of; when it is, it's no longer reality.

China , I've done this in the past, to become aware of all the judgeing one does in a day. Just that is hard to control.
why control anything ? If there is understanding ,then there is no reason to control .
