    What Is Just (((IS)))

    Logically, neither the presence of What Is, nor the fact that It has ANY discernible features at all (let alone It's two permanent ones [one of which can be conceptualized as 'Ever-changing Form' and the other as 'Ever-changeless Formlessness'] and all of It's many impermanent ones [each of...

    How much choice do we really have?

    Naturally, in any given waking moment, we are all moving along what we each perceive to be the path of least resistance to get as close to happiness as possible and as far from unhappiness as possible. Of course, we all have different preferences, but none of us CHOSE our own preferences. They...

    Active Inactivity

    Apparently, some of the 'conscious features' of the Fundamental Activity are of such an extreme level of physical complexity that they have the natural capacity to become 'hypnotized' by their surroundings. This hypnosis makes it SEEM to these extremely complex conscious features (a.k.a...

    Active Inactivity

    Thanks for replying, and for the welcome. You raise a very important point here, and ask a brilliant question. So brilliant, in fact, that I'm afraid it may take me some time to come up with an adequate answer, but I'll try to be as quick as possible. Watch this space! ☺

    Active Inactivity

    In truth, ALL 'things' and 'events' (including 'ourselves') are actually arbitrarily delineated, impermanent 'features' of the 'Fundamental Activity' (which is commonly known as the universe). Evidently, this Activity is inseparable from 'Shape' (which cannot exist without 'Constraint'). The...

    The unsolvable mystery of Reality Itself

    Firstly, before we get to the mystery, I would like to point out what CAN be known; In truth, ALL 'things' and 'events' (including 'ourselves') are actually arbitrarily delineated, impermanent 'features' of the eternally cyclic Universal Process (the only Process that ever actually occurs in...

    Life Itself

    All good points here, siti. I am in fact positing an eternally recycling universe. However, there is also the question, "how do life forms ever emerge in a universe which materialistic science describes as being fundamentally non-living?", which I am trying to answer by suggesting that IF the...

    Life Itself

    Maybe, but I do at least go on in the next few sentences to show my line of reasoning behind the statement.

    Life Itself

    Thanks alot for the reply, siti. You ask, "Why can change not be the be all and end all of reality?". Good question! The fact of the matter is that the change that is going on has a very particular, apparently consistent asymmetrical nature, and this begs the question, "why does it have THIS...

    Life Itself

    In truth, the presence of Reality Itself is inherently beginningless, endless and edgeless. If this were not the case, the 'irreducible edgeless absence' beyond it's edge, the 'irriducible beginningless absence' before it's beginning and the 'irriducible endless absence' after it's end would...
