Re: Mind body problem

As the universe is responsible for the composure of the body, it is reasonable that it also composes what we experience as the mind. When I look at DNA, I see an antenna that receives a universal signal.

My NDE

So there is a short version and a long version of the story. This is going to be the short version.

My NDE occurred in a near drowning situation. I was in very cold water. I wasn't choking on water but more so realizing that this body wasn't going to survive the experience much longer. And with ...

Re: Arch

And to know ordering principle, speaks to me of reliability throughout all time. An pulse, a measure, a rhythm one can can pace oneself by.

This brings remembrance of powers and principalities. Whereas principalities are as designated spaces, powers are as energies that inform spaces and propel ...

Re: Arch

Thanks for the comprehensive list of resources!

This root word I have incorporated into my username Arki-logos, and to me it means primal pattern or an accounting of origins or even first word.

i'm also fond of its structural meaning as an arch which brings to mind a bridge over a gap ...

Re: The moment of awakening

Something I've retained that you remind me of...

"There are three steps between man and God: The first is belief, it is what a man thinks perhaps is true. The second is faith, it is what a man knows to be true and in this belief is lost. The third step is fruition, it is man and truth as one. So ...

Re: Sell your soul

If there was only perception and no retention of it as memory, how would you ever know you had perceived anything? There is reflection upon the memory and contrast with current conditions or else no change would be perceived at all.


The "soul" at this simplest consideration is a container of ...

Re: You can not die


We are our bodies.


Or are we brains in vats? How would we know?

If I lose a finger or an arm, surely I am still the same "me". At what point of loss of body do I become not me?

One of the neatest lucid dream experiences I've had was learning how to accrete the sensory organs I remember ...

Re: Amon/Amen Etymology

This word has come up for me in my explorations of infinity. I found it in the simplest expression of the opening of a space within an infinite substance. The widest (spherical) opening of the mouth is the Ahhh sound. Within the space opened is a field of strings, the line like formation of the ...

Re: You can not die

Speak speaking from a near death experience in which I had the choice to either return to my body or leave the earth completely, our awareness is not dependent on this physical body... the body is more like a veil or shroud around our total awareness.

I perceive us as mummified in matter. And ...

Re: Sell your soul

How can you sell what you do not own? *mischievous grin*

How do I know I am in full possession of my soul/self? If someone does something and I get upset, now being occupied by anger/judgement, have I lost possession of myself?

In many spiritual traditions the soul is likened to a house or ...
