Im gathering that you are both experienced meditators? I have had instances usually quite brief -though also timeless- of quieting the fluctuations of thought. In this state an experience arises of being. Being, in a thoughtless state. This appears to be what I am at my very core. I've yet to hear anyone use language to express what this existence is or where or when. Follow?



The way i've reached that state of mind is by observing my thoughts in my mind. Any thought at all. even the thought of observing my own thoughts. And by stepping back (so to say) and looking at my thought as exactly what it is, a thought, I eventually clear my mind.

If thats what you've experienced or not I don't know. But its something I like to do when I feel I need to be more aware of whats around me. I find it much easier to observe things when I'm not attaching an emotion or explanation to what I'm seeing.

input? observations? questions? answers? to the above



Hipknotic- i deeply regret to admit that i am just now reading your post. i was mind-weary and had to allow a considerable space of time before i could attempt what seemed an indomnitable mass of words. further, when i did have the compulsion to check in on the read, street's post repulsed me and kept me at bay until now.

my response to your position?: YES!!! in an amazing/awesome way, i agree wholeheartedly with everything which you posit, and even the way in which your frame your statements. it closely mirrors what i've shared with others before. if i could, i'd shake your hand right now. thank you, sir.

TBG/Hipknotic/DreadlocksD [if you're reading]- i think it must be said that i greatly enjoy reasoning with all of you. the title of the thread, however ironic, is perfectly fitting. it is difficult to find people, especially young men, willing to come together and have an intelligent and open discussion about things without becoming brusque. i thank you all.

Heh, for myself to go into a topic of this sort of the internet would drive me nuts. Id be typing forever, and sometimes I find myself talking rather incoherently, then I would in person.

is that because he challenges stupid notions that you hold dear? I just don't understand how him explaining the origin of speaking in tongues 'repulsed' you. I'm not attacking you, would you care to enlighten me?

it wasn't his argument. it was his style which offended me. i hadn't the time to research his point, but his manner made any real discussion seem unlikely so i didn't bother when i did.

street said
..."two things i'll address about yellowfeather is your belief that nophysical exists... thats foolish, and i'd like for you to point out atleast 1 nonphysical entity in this universe, ATLEAST 1."

light, gravity, sound

Did somebody hit a nerve?
