I did ever since that old like chinese proverb or whatever it was. With of course other things factoring in.

Teacher "If you wish to come in, you must first answer. Who are you"

Student "I am (insert name)"

Teacher "I didn't ask who you are, I asked who are you"

Student "I'm an engineer"

Teacher "I didn't ask what you did, I asked who are you."

Student "I'm a nice guy, sometimes witty....."

Teacher interrupts "I didn't ask what your personality is, I asked who are you"

Student " I am ....(thinks in confusion)"

Teacher "Correct, come on in"

I think it's a philosophy teaching you that in order to gain true knowledge, you must first realize how little you know, and how little you can ever truly know, and in order to have an educated mind you must be open to the idea that you can always be wrong, about anything, no matter how set in stone in seems. But just my opinion of course.

It was something like that with more dialogue inbetween, and I probably butchered it, I can't remember what book I saw it in, I think it was journey to the west or something like that. They also did a slight version of it in anger management with Adam Sandler.

If somebody were to kill you...then im pretty sure that proves you are not the only one to exist :lol:

actually my psychosis wasn't the kind where I would hear voices.

it was a "everything around me is giving me signals, signs, informations...etc" type of psychosis.

I have only heard another voice in my head a few times. it was very rare during my psychosis.

Depends what awaits after, if it's nothing, then I will never know of anything ever again, or know that anything else exist, when my brain shuts down, my reality shuts down, which wouldn't prove that anything outside of me truly exist. I could feel the pain of someone killing me, and everything that comes with it, but it would still be my brain just telling me it's real, without ever knowing if it really was.

And I could speculate other alternatives about dying, but considering what awaits after is nothing more then a guessing game, it would be foolish to ponder about it and make conclusions based on it since that would only be my imagination of what's next.

What if when we die atleast part of our conciousness is passed onto the next available generation of our relatives to unconciously collectively become part  the new person to 'talk' the subconscious ideas. =part of dormant mental illness.

Am i taking this too seriously? Oh dear :frown:

This reminds me some shit I thought up with when I was mad young about fate. Free-will might not even be a thing...like our brains are already pre-wired to respond to every thought in a specific way...which makes us who we are. Are their really souls at play here or are we doing what you're saying and listening to our brain's pre-wiring lay out for us what the next thought will be the last. If I follow this right I think we were actually thinking about the same thing here
