this "this" as opposed to the "this" as in "this or that"
this "this" is fucking endless and that "this" is endless fucking around with decisions.

Simple minds are the easiest to astound.
With realization and rationalization, the mysticism fades away.

There is MUCH we all don't know. Perhaps some day, we'll discover the world isn't flat, all over again.
The more you know, the more things which were once mystical (Santa) loose their hold on us... while the GREAT and INFINATE unknown can remain as mystical as ever.

Yeah, but over a certain amount of time "I think therefore I am" should stop phasing you.

Indeed.

the nature of reality, consciouness, will, and all the rest of that jazz, is still a very profound mystery.
"i think therefore i am" is a fairly narrow statement that doesnt really describe very much. there is still oodles of mystery.
and i like the statement "i think, therefore i think i think.." better.

I mean i'm kind of lost lately, im sure that it has somting to do with the fact that i have started getting high again, and my mind is starting to think in the way that it is somewhat used to, but not acoustomed to.
as i was driving through town today, where chicago's suburbs end, and the country begins i saw the sunset, what a view. so amazindg a new pallet that is painted anew every minute of every day... and yet again i thought to myself, this is life??? allright...
the high life the low life, we all die in the end, whats after that is anyones guess.
i suppose its all abot enjoying yourself and having fun. i tend to do alot of that, but often times i wonder if im just tricking myself into haveing a good time instaed of dealing with the naggind worry that goes "this is it????""" that repeats in my head. a doubble mindfuck if you will..
but yeah,
this,
this right here
this
is
life...

Transcend the rational mind, the transrational mind IS mystical - it is self-realizing - the mind knowing itself. This is what The Tibetan Book of the Great Liberation teaches (a great mystical text, translated by Evans-Wentz, with a preface by C.G. Jung).
The rational mind is a wonderful servant, but a terrible master. It is but one 'mental muscle' in an entire 'body' of apperception. The rational mind can conceive and construct a hydrogen bomb, but it cannot achieve peace either within or without. It is a tool and should not be worshipped as the framework of Reality.
