INVISIBLE GURU FORUM

Hi Jed,

just throwing it out there as I thought it was quite funny.

You talked about the Theory Of Everything in your last book and I get it (well, in theory of course). I also thought it was very interesting what you had to say about Science, Scientists, well and then the famous guys like Stephen Hawkings.

I just saw that there is a movie coming out featuring Stephen Hawkings life and it is called...guess what... THEORY OF EVERYTHING. 

Thought that was hilarious, having read your book and knowing what you said, it just made me crack up.

I think it is always interesting to see, that when in a conversation and/or discussion about science and stuff, people are just throwing out "their" facts and then when you ask them ... "How do you know?", "How do you know it is true?" "How do you know it really exists?"  they just look at you. It really does not even compute in their heads, it is like they are thinking why would anyone ever ask this question.. isn't it obvious?? My answer/question would be: Well is it really??? 

Thank you for the books and sharing the information. I must say the audio books are really awesome, very well done. I always come back to them although I probably read/listened to each of them more then 10 times, but there is always new stuff that strikes me.

Anyways hope all is well and I am working on some questions for you.

Hi Jed,

thanks for your reply and I must say, it was really a good one. Short and sweet.

I read in one of the threads where you pointed out to a forum member that these POSTS are only for YOU (you were referring to the poster), which ever one you read. So I conclude they are also all for ME.  So reading the other posts it has been hitting me left and right, like getting slapped in the face.

Reading your reply there were two things that really struck me. I like how your BELIEVE SYSTEM abbreviation (B.S.) matches as an abbreviation for bull$#!t. And yes people do not like their bull$#!t (B.S.) challenged. But more profoundly was:

We create all these things through our experiences. Name something that isn't an experience and show me something that exists for you when you aren't observing it.

BAMMMMMM, seriously. That is something everyone should really contemplate.

Anyways.

I have been on my little journey and probably nothing out of the ordinary in comparison to others. Only thing I knew from an early age that something was different. Not sure what but I did not fit in, did not like what others were doing, was not interested, etc. Always struggled to FIT IN. BUT I actually did not want to. Now being older it is much clearer and yes I do not want to fit it and it don't 

Anyways keeping it short, do not want to bore you with my past which is really unimportant. So here are a few things I wanted to ask you.

1. Through the years, especially the recent years I have no interest in memories and my past, it keeps fading away and I really have a hard time remembering or connecting to that person at that time. I don't remember stuff from last week.     It this a "side effect" of the process?

2. With that being said I have also lost a large amount of desires, interests etc. I have become seriously impatient, cannot deal with frivolous, superficial stuff,  become irritable and peoples stupidity bugs the hell out of me. Not sure what that is but do you think it could be related? Sometimes I feel I am going nuts with all of this and then looking at the people that surround me. Crazy !!!

3. The main answer that I have to peoples questions nowadays is: I don't know or basically F#$% it! Which I in the meantime think is the best "spiritual" advise. Do your books have a tendency to start shifting things in people, or whatever you want to call it. Can or have they triggered things is people before?

Not sure if this all makes sense but it becomes more and more difficult for me to explain.

Thanks.

Hi Jed,

Got it, my bad, got a little carried away there for a sec.

Did my questions in my last post have any relevance?

I really sometimes think I am loosing it and now I feel stuck and I am suffocating. Do not know where to go. Hard to explain.

Can you give a  jump?

Thanks Sven

Hi Jed,

Two questions if I may:

1. How is it, if there is no I, taking that as the basis, who then is thinking about all this here or trying to figure things out, contemplate etc.? 

2. How is it when as you said (in one of your posts here) the mind is flawed and the mind cannot figure it out anyways, then what is the idea of contemplating ideas, concepts. etc. or "working" on issues. Isn't that all using the mind? 

That would be 87 words.

Hope this is o.k. to get our conversation started.

Thanks.
Sven
