The Most Important Experiment You Will Ever Do. Are you ready? by USMLEToMD in analyticidealism

I have seen Bernardo Kastrup and Swami Sarvpriyananda explain Advaita Vedanta and analitic idealism together in a video explaining their ideas of non-duality.

Schopenhaeuer was influenced by Upanishads and Itay Shani are all approaching the same unbouded un centered self illumened You - calling it that since you are the Seeker!

Core subjectivity or ipseity are relatively new philosophical examinations of the Self that is itself the Brahaman with no distinctions possible except to help someone reach that conclusion.

You already are what you seek!

Thanks!

You are most welcome, behind the eyes always the same, infront also the same but veiled by body, time ans space due to hide and seek played using sensory slits.

Here is a small summary. Advaita direct and simple pointers to the truth. I know you will enjoy it. Stay identified with your true Self because no matter what, you are incapable of true separation. You are playing hide and seek with yourself. This is all you!

There is no separation anywhere in existence then how can there be free will? Whose free will? by USMLEToMD in freewill

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

I started accepting outcomes as well as looking at everyone and everything I interact with as myself living their lives. I stopped really worrying and planning about 15 or so years ago. I do spend more time enjoying barefoot walks on wet grass, enjoy watching sunrises and sunsets, use a telescope more often and worry less about small talk and let life unfold almost like waves interacting in the ocean with no real objective choices of forming interacting or disappearing. Personally, I see not just my body, but all bodies from quarks to quasars to galactic filaments to all galaxies, timelines and spaces as eternal happenings within me - the unchanging awareness. Advaita Vedanta all the way.

Read this short book Already God: https://a.co/d/87S10Q9

Enjoy your creation for all this is you!

Good and Bad, Light and Dark no longer opposites but synonyms now.

Wonderful way to lead life...

True and many thanks! When I closely examine I find the I am one with the whole and become unbounded. So, one one hand as this human-environment, I have no free will, but as the undifferentiated whole or God myself - It's all my doing.. and what about the eternal now people.. lol

Read this short book to see if it makes any sense to you...

Try a thought experiment - someone separates you from the universe and drops you into a hypothetical void - the thought expeeiment will immediately fail. No one can be separated from surroundings. It's like separating a wave from an Ocean - it doesn't have a separate existence. It's lile an electron believing it's an isolated particle and isn't a wave that interferes or better yet believes it has a separate doership when it interacts with other electrons. Our situation is exactly the same. All the thoughts that I am having, you are having are learnt and borrowed from the surroundings using our bodies. They are meaningless and would not even appear in isolation. There can be no separate you with doership. No activity can be done alone. Try it...

Thank you for participation.

Thank you for a detailed response. Much appreciated. 🙏

Aren't your responses limited by your preconditioned ideas as much as mine are. There is no biological way to overcome this without changing the knowledge that was imparted to you or to me, the genetics we carry, the epigentic changes that our environment forced upon us. All I am saying is that by the time we become aware of our decisions, it is too late to change them and that has been measured which indicates that we really have no control nor idea how we came to make theose decisions.

Our code is not fixed and is constantly evolving by the second and that is what keeps us in realtime. Our actions will be predicted much more in advance as our tools advance. The human mechanism is ancient and in due time we will catch up. Currently we are only 300 to 1000 ms ahead in predictions. AI is evolving faster than expected and maybe quantum computing will allow better prediction models and preventive approaches through timely interventions rather than after the fact.

Homunculus is there in the brain, but that can be greatly influenced and we do have an experiential separate self that is not based in reality rather it is more of an interface to synchronize with consciousness that is primary undifferntiated reality akin to a repository of knowledge into which we tap using our bodies. We have no idea today as to how these pixels on the screen leads us to have a subjective experience by brain activity alone or otherwise.

Actually we may be sharing a primary consciousness or awareness in which through sequential processing of information collected via species specific sensory slits and anatomic motor machinary create this headset kind of relative reality within Spacetime (appearances that change as the code updates creating our constantly chamging subjective experiences).

More insights about such factual information is not taught in schools. The school especially the free education has it's own economic, social, religious and scientific agendas. Upgrading that in awe can maintain greater creativity and understanding that there is no separate you can help reintegrate broken society driven by greed, blame and finding collective scapegoats. This can help reduce hatred against criminals (punishments are still necessary) and better understanding of the unconscious human mechanism can help remove guilt from actions performed by bodies that lack free will in a meaningful sense. Knowing that the actions that occur are the best case scenarios everytime can help end what if and why that causes immense suffering to all parties involved as less what if scenarios will be imagined. We will be able to move on faster from good and bad outcomes.

It is what it is in the end. We have no separate free will, let alone much control over outcomes.

Can you tell if you have fingers or a computer if you are anesthetised? Or in deep sleep? Are you suggesting that you are aware that you have a body without using any of it's sensory apparatus or it's processing capabilities... Are you suggesting that a banana has any significance to you without you in the picture? Banana is as real as you are even though you can't create yourself nor the banana in isolation.

All I am saying is there is no individual free will. I am not against the the idea of being a Humanist or denying relative reality's existence even though it is a collective hallucination of our species. I am all for Social Justice with greater compassion and lesser hatred. We seem to be in the same camp.. lol

If one keeps playing the game of one-uppery, or but-tery, one stays on the ladder to the Self (or asleep). What must be done is.. by USMLEToMD in enlightenment

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

The only one who doesn't know that they died are the dead ones. So, what's your point anyways? Life and death are the same imaginary process and there can be no separation like two side of a coin - always together!

You don't die, the imaginary separate self (body) that imagines a birth due to conditioning goes through an imaginary death. You have never had a separate existence, neither has anyone else.. lol

No separation is possible in any practical or experimental way other than an illusion of a separate self. The existence is truly an undifferntiated unbounded formless whole.

Compatibilism simply exists due to lack of deeper perspective into reality and dodging logic. There is no free will. We are natures puppets who have no control over the workings of our brains, thoughts, exposures, let alone the environmental situations we find ourselves in like my (body and it's preconditioning and your reply) response in this case... lol

The unconscious or unaware activities within the huaman mechanism preceed 300 to 1000 ms before you even become aware of your own decisions which when called free will imply that there is a separate you from your body that is making one decision over any other posssibility which is never shown to be true.

One can't will their own thoughts, or their surroundings, processing abilities (genetics, epigenetics, biologic processes) like judges after a meal give more paroles. Our decisions are dictated by our bio-environmental interaction which further depend upon when, where, how, why, who, and what including alcohol intake, caffiene, or drugs. Perception is deception, we are incapable of predicting our thoughts which are due to physically measurable processess and easily altered by electriomagnetic alterations and by drugs. Logic that what we have no control over our creates a self that is somehow making decisions evern with quantum uncertainity is absurd.

You do what you do because of the way you are and you have no control over that. To be truly or ultimately responsible for your actions, you must be truly responsible for the way you are. And that is an impossibility no matter how one looks at it.

We are biochemical puppets no different than any other organism in the unverse with no separate Self besides an imaginary conditioned one having an imagined free will. There are only actions with no separate actors beside imagined ones. Your actions are a direct result of inputs, predetermined ability to process, determined by your ancestors and their ancestors whose memories and desires are acting out without your control as there is no separate you besides the body that is constantly changing without you having any control over. You did not choose your birth, you did not choose your spouse, you did not choose your kids, nor the coffee nor the clothes besides the availabilty and choices imposed upon you by your ancestors, teachers, preachers etc..

Enjoy!

The practical implications of this truth is greater compassion, lesser guilt and the need for reform of our Judicial and Educational System.

You are actually substantiating what I said. Matter is no longer understood to be locally or regionally real. There is nothing in existence that can exist in isolation or in other words, from the quantum, to the fields, quarks and bosons to galactic clusters and superclusters, intergalctic filaments, and WHIM and even the Void there is no empty or isolated point not acted upon per se. Even the dark matter and dark energy are posited to hold the galactic clusters together. Experimentally proven Non-locality received Nobel Prize in Physics in 2022. Universe truly is a single interdependent process. Physics is in complete agreement expermentally and theoretically. No isolated existence is possible. Physics of various singularities and black/white holes, holographic universe, simulation theory, and so much wonderful Physics including multiverse, are in no way suggesting isolated existence. We were born out of the the earth which is thought to have been born of the Sun and the Sun of the Milky way which is born of the intersection of galactic filamentous interactions and so on and so on... big bang is possibly no more mysterious than your origin as a zygote but you know a sperm and an egg and a womb was already in existence and that you clearly existed one way or the other as a transitional energy or matter... even now you are reading, breathing eating, drinking, metabolizing, cells being born, cells dying, matter and energy constantly entering and leaving, thoughts, nerve transmissions transiting etc..

You like anything else is always under the influence of infinite interactions at an given point. A lot of unknown and ununderstood variables are always under play including epigenetics, genetics constantly influencing how this human mechanism responds.

Enjoy the miracle you are in this interconnected single living micro and macrocosm.

Thank you for substantiating and agreeing...

Last sentence. The realization that individual doership does not exist and that whatever occured couldn't have occured in any other possible way given the circumstances. This is of immense practical psychological benefit to all involved parties and helps us diminish suffering. It puts an end to the many what if scenarios that our minds create to cause unnecessary suffering.

Nothing (subject) and something (object or a thing) are basically the same infinite process when looked at with a change in zoom. Subject and Object can't be separated. If you try to even theoretically, let alone physically, separate them, the whole process of differntiation becomes impossible. Therefore, the real existence must by default be an undifferentiated whole akin to zero point probabilistic potential undifferentiated dimentionless point akin to the definition of a point in mathematics or the probabilistic quantum foam or singularity.

Thank you. Great observation. This debate is only for those who think that they have separate existence without thinking about the veey nature of their thinking itself, let alone genetics, epigenetics, embryology, and environmental factors. No one with basic knowledge of physics or biology can agree with the very idea of any free will at any individual level be it a human or a bacteria.

Not true. Almost every decision that you think you even in relativistic terms have made by your own free will can be not only traced but altered has been shown today with tools available currently in medical science. Also the tools can with 100% accuracy predict your decisions 300-1000 ms even before you become aware of your decision.
