Queso Posted January 23, 2006 Report Posted January 23, 2006 life, for me,is this strange experience. where i'm concious,gathering dataand expressing myself. transfering my energy into other things.Most things just happen. I do not matter,I am matter. Quote

insight Posted January 28, 2006 Report Posted January 28, 2006 Life is combination of matter and mind.Life is restructuring energy.Matter is energy and so is mind.Our body is vacuum. Matter is vacuum? Or vacuum is matter?Whatever, vacuum is energy. . . . . . . . .Death is seperation of matter and mind.Death lets go energy. (Energy can't be destroyed nor created)Matter turns to energy and so does mind. . . . . . . . .Life is combination of matter and mind.Life is restructuring energy.Matter is energy and so is mind. . . . . . . .Lives are semicircles. They never stop.Deaths are semicircles.They never stops too.Two semicircles make a full circle.Life and death are just like running on a circle on the paper.As long as you run, it won't last forever.If you stop, you won't move.Running on a warping space is escaping from life and death. But you need to jump on the paper to warp it.Hmmm........continue thinking Quote

insight Posted January 30, 2006 Report Posted January 30, 2006 Death is the experience one can never experience.It is an end of an experience and the path of the second semicircle is only anticipation and imaginationWe experienced them before so many thimes if you know the Buddhism. There are circles of lives and deaths. We're seperated in understanding. Anyway, nevermind, everyone has his own path. Quote
arkain101 Posted February 4, 2006 Report Posted February 4, 2006 If there was a way to erase everything you ever could know, remember, feel, just anything at all, this is how life would become itself. Now if you chose to think you came from somewhere before or not, and are going somewhere after death or not is your choice but life in the middle, sounds pretty good to me, If you wanted to invent life, you have to remove anything that relates to existance. When I say life I mean being a human being and how it works for us. Quote
arkain101 Posted February 4, 2006 Report Posted February 4, 2006 I wonder, why are we concirned with what others think about reality? Is there some instinct to unite thoughts or is it a thing more beyond instinct and an act of try to help others in the way you think might help. Quite a mystery actually.. Quote
insight Posted February 5, 2006 Report Posted February 5, 2006 Now if you chose to think you came from somewhere before or not, and are going somewhere after death or not is your choice but life in the middle, sounds pretty good to me, If you wanted to invent life, you have to remove anything that relates to existance. When I say life I mean being a human being and how it works for us. Translated from the Pali by Thanissaro Bhikkhu a devata addressed the Blessed One with a verse: Living in the wilderness, staying peaceful, remaining chaste, eating just one meal a day: why are their faces so bright & serene? [The Buddha:] They don't sorrow over the past, don't long for the future. They survive on the present. That's why their faces are bright & serene. From longing for the future, from sorrowing over the past, fools wither away like a green reed cut down. Diversities of thinking make human stand in the wilderness of thoughts. We're born to be different. If someone doesn't know a trick of magic, it seems to be mystery for him. Quote
Racoon Posted February 5, 2006 Report Posted February 5, 2006 This is the most basic, fundamental, and existential question one could pose. Life is a mystery because we are still asking this question.There is scientific and philosophic ways of answering. Life is cell division. Life is air and water. Life is a fleeting experience. Life is a serious game. I read a bumper sticker that said " Don't take life so seriously,... its not permanent " :singer: Life is simply part of the cosmic cycle of energy. Quote

Life may refer to the ongoing process of which living things are a part; the period between the birth (or a point at which the entity can be considered to be living) and death of an organism; the condition of an entity that has been born (or reached the point in its existence at which it can be established to be alive) and has yet to die; and that which makes a living thing alive. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life A Day of Brahma, a cosmic manvantara or out-breathing of Brahma, represents a period where worlds are evolved and pass through their allotted ages of manvantaric existence. Each Day of Brahma consists of 1,000 aggregates of four yugas or 1,000 mahayugas (great ages). In a smaller sense it is also a mahamanvantara or kalpa of a planetary chain, composed of seven rounds, a period of 4,320,000,000 terrestrial years. ...http://www.theosociety.org/pasadena/etgloss/br-bz.htm Quote
arkain101 Posted February 6, 2006 Report Posted February 6, 2006 I meant.. if you were a god for example, if you were to erase everything you could of already known.. youd wake up as a baby.. hence how life becomes itself when you forget everything you already knew. This is when you look at it from this strange persepective. Quote
