Angerfist - Temple of disease I'm gonna pull the whole thing down I'm gonna bring the whole f**kin' diseased, corrupt temple down on your head Total f**king war
I'm gonna pull the whole thing down (down [?x])
Total f**king war
This is now This very moment But we are threatened by the now so we jump to the past or the future What is the actual experience now possesses a lot of powerful things It is so powerful that we can't face it And maybe that's why we seek religion Maybe that's why we march in the street Maybe that's why we vote for the presidents Maybe that's why we complain to society Total f**king war)
So we jump to the past or the future
And maybe that's why we seek religion Maybe that's why we march in the street Maybe that's why we complain to society
I agree. Do you feel that sound (light all around us, all our senses) are not part of the overwhelming silence?
Im just wondering your relationship to "that which isn't silence" as if silence is other than this apparent "noise?" Unless your silence is the silence that is sound and silent sound.
Long time lurker, love your posts Chronic

Silence it is then. The music of life, they called it..
-------------------- And thus begins the reverse-fusing of our one-dimentional understanding, and adds ever-expanding perspectives, in depth and number; splitting our perception, and in so doing, seemingly irrationally, creates yet more one-ness, with all that ever was, is and will ever be, streching across the infinite, inunderstood concept of everything, percievable and not.

If you are comfertable with everything else than yourself you are comfertable with your self?

I would say that sound or vibration are not a part of the silence, as they are not apart from the silence

That's a good question, i don't have a relationship to 'that which isn't silence' as there is no such thing, really there is only What Is, which is indefinability, it just Is, silence, or peace, or truth or reality or whatever word we use are all names for whatever absolutely Is, whatever we absolutely are, absolutely, so no opposite
All if not most concepts are dualistic, they have an opposite, silence implies noise, peace implies war, love implies hate, so we must come to understand that what we truly are exists beyond all conceptual framework, conception is not consciousness, yet can not be other than consciousness

I agree that if you are comfortable with everything else then you are comfortable with yourself, and that if you are comfortable with yourself then you will be comfortable with everything else, but that the latter is a more realistically possible approach if we are talking about one preceding the other

Silence is great. The older I get, the more I find words to really be lacking to convey a message or feeling. Sometimes silent time spent with another person is the most meaningful time. Some people seem to always be so busy trying to fill in the gaps that they never get to experience this gift.
