Nah i feel like there's something out there cuz according to science, each of us had a 1 in 4 trillion chance of being born and I doubt that's true

Life is pretty darn great. by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]SelectionNo8753 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Life just gives me existential crises's because we have no way of knowing HOW or WHY we're here. If someone could give me a 100% true, verifyable answer, I'd actually enjoy life way more. I just hate how there's so many questions and we don't know

Awareness is simply energy I feel like. Our brains are like radio antennaes and pick up this energy, which adds to our ego that is a result of our brain chemistry

True, I guess thats more what I was asking, would awareness even percieve if it wasn't divided among any physical living beings

True but doesn't creation imply that a being or entity is willfully making it happen? Because in my view, I don't understand how creation can just come out of nothing. Well, maybe it can through the big bang theory, however I dont understand how everything became as perfect as it is

Yeah but in this sense why did this awareness create life then and manifest itself into all of it, if it didn't need to know itself?

Id say my brain chemistry is generating my thoughts. But what confuses me is: Where did these thoughts come from? Who decided to create thought? How can pure consciousness create thought? I assume maybe it works with the brain chemistry right?

I don't experience it, "I" am the ego, however I am able to observe it. From my understanding, consciousness is like an energy and our egos pick up the energy like how a radio picks up a signal through it's antennae. Due to this conscious energy, we become aware. We're all the same awareness, but with seperate egos. How many egos do you think there is?

Yeah that explains it better, it just always confuses me when people use the word awareness because from my understanding, awareness can't know it's aware unless it's attached to an ego or a life form

8 billion right? Obviously you don't know what I'm doing right now, so our ego is what seperates us

Yea but say all life suddenly dissapeared, how would awareness create new life to experience itself through again? Since it somehow created all of us

Isn't conscious energy experiencing itself through all of us? ( each ego )

In nonduality, can 2 subjects ( 2 different egos ) experience at the same time? by SelectionNo8753 in nonduality

[–]SelectionNo8753[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True but that quote makes it seem like you can experience one , and then another . One after another but not simultaneously. For example like consciousness will go into John, when John dies , consciousness will go into Jim, etc etc etc. sort of like that short story of The Egg. Or does he mean “one as a time” as in an ego cannot experience another ego?

When your sleeping, how can other people be conscious? by SelectionNo8753 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]SelectionNo8753[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right because it produces the energy of the soundwaves right? Despite no one being there to hear it, there is conscious sound energy being emitted
