Yes, the fact that we're just 1 universe out of infinite possibilities. I nutted that out the other day, I call it "universe chauvinism".

:thumbup: true

but the creation of a human being, an instrument through which the universe can become consciously conscious of itself, its just brilliant :wink:

I feel life is desperate for a new vacation, or maybe some high powered vaccines and medications. Pharmaceuticals rule the nation, that's why I'm sitting here like a shriveled up piece of delectable bacon. What's next guys? And how do I make my hunger go away and stop craving. Just a fork full of flesh skin helps every one awaken. Now quit crying at the clouds like you're proud of your'e making, try and sit down and be happily endlessly soaking in a blow up Jacuzzi with a hot ass naked version of Lord Satan. (But don't allow any Faith in.)

Yes this is the most honest reply so far imo. :thumbup:

No one knows if the universe is conscious of itself imo. Those who believe it do so because someone told them so.  So...

You can only know so if you are conscious of yourself. Otherwise you don't know it.

The universe is theorized to be in the shape of a cylinder. :wink:

How do you become conscious of it, when you don't even know?

Unconscious incompetence..

Everything I've been thinking up to now, and every philosophy I've read, and all the metaphysical speculation I've encountered, seems to totally miss the point.

You come alive and you see the day through, you work hard, you laugh, you get angry, you fuck around with your hobbies and occasionally glance around and take it the simple awesomeness of what is presently going on, even if it's just trees swaying, and you wonder: "why the fuck was I asking questions?"

It's like we can't even grasp what's going on, because we ARE what's going on, not as an extension of yourself or anything, as if you looked outside yourself in a certain peculiar way you'd be enlightened, but that the state you're looking for, is you... and there's nothing but it, and you know that when you go there.

It's not intellectual, it's not physical, it's not obvious, it's somewhere else in the mind or perhaps above/beyond it. You don't see, but you know...

I think that's a bunch of nonsense. :shrug:

I'm quite conscious. Others not so much imo.

The occasional question is part of the passion play too. :thumbup:  Just don't get hung up on having answers.

Icelander, If you are quite conscious, and others not so much, doesnt that validate HeartAndMind's quote?

"You can only know so if you are conscious of yourself."

as you said, you are conscious- 'conscious of yourself'?

"Otherwise you don't know it."

"Others not so much imo"

Inasmuch, you think your own opinion (that you are conscious of yourself, and therefor are consciously aware of yourself) and others are not so much (that they are unconsciously unaware of themselves)=

This is annoying, I have no original thought, never figured anything out myself, just too damned stupid. Gratitude for Alan Watts, Timothy Leary and Terence McKenna for the most satisfying explanations. Without the words of these people my reality would be far more lonely and drunk. There are many others who I've learned from too. But I agree, what can I say that I was not told? nothing! I am so full of shit and I'm going to puke.
