stories

[Guest guest]

Hi Lyn, thank you for clarifying your point of view.

I like entertaining many different stories, so I like to learn about

your idea of how we came about or what happens when there are no

more stories left.

I notice that some stories resonate more with me than others.

I don't know why.

Most often I think that when it's a story that sounds like I could

understand it, it can't be true :-)

Because my mind has its limitations, and logically it is impossible

to conceive of anything outside the limitations of my mind.

Maybe that's the same as what you're saying: that we can't

experience anything without a point of view preceding it.

What would you say about the episodes during sleep when we don't

dream?

When we don't dream, we have no recollection of conscious

experiences. But we do have a body still.

So I'd say that during dreamless sleep we are in an experience-less

state. You don't need to be bodiless to be in that state now and

then.

As I see it, admiration creates separation.

Not compatible with love.

And I get confused too .... :-)

Thanks for sharing,
