illusions
    #13833401 -

what does a cloudy mind look like from the standpoint of being clear-headed. My brother talked about death once, and the word dead was transmitted with the colour red, I noticed.

i read from a book once that anything that exists in time and space is an illusion. the only thing that may be eternal is truth. what is the source which seperates illusion from truth?

maybe oneness is the only truth.. the fact that i am posting this to images in my mind, i think about the shroomery population as one kind-of subconscious imagery.

i think that none of you are there when im not looking, and when i come here you all are here for my grand distraction. oh and the TV and radio are part of it too.

you all know me, and what i do.... i am part of a completely infallible game, the goal seems to be to remove all anger from consciousness and replace it with a kind of mystic angelic state

Try and count the black dots.



This is an illusion.

Ther is a difference between looking and being aware of what you expect to see if you were to look.

If I have ever suggested such a thing it would have most likely been , due to my personality disorder and i probably do not remember it at all..

I can't really pinpoint why some people do not make eye contact.. maybe they feel too guilty or ashamed of themselves and don't feel worthy to come in direct contact with innocence

We've all heard the old adage  that the eyes are the window of the soul, well it could be true that when making eye contact our consciousness feels naked and exposed.

I like to have a foggy mind, it means thoughts are more visible to my awareness. A clear mind on the other hand would indicate to me that perhaps I was not paying attention to my thoughts and maybe only focusing on one thing.

kind of an odd way to define foggy vs. clear?

It's one thing to simply enjoy a style of life that one enjoys, but it's another thing altogether to refer to another person's choice as "wrong" or to rationalize their behavior as being pathological or resulting from some sort of inadequacy or failing so as to create a sense of superiority or separation as yet another projection of a personal fear or control issue.
