Your words wouldn't even make sense in that sense

I believe I am everything and without me there would be nothing.

I believe many things throughout the day, but they are all made up and I am very aware of that. It's entertaining but very different from knowing. I only know one thing and that is that I  can never know anything because nothing is knowable.

Love ya, Jed.

You have to find  out for yourself.

But, you will find there are no messages in the ''not'' paradigm because it is ''not''. How could it have a message? It is this ''not'' problem that's bothering you. You can not make sense of it. How can you make sense of something that is ''not''. It's ''not'' possible. If you ''not'' something how is it not possible that it contain nothing... it's ''not''  and hence isn't... how can what isn't be  ??? ??? ???, isn't that not possible?

Can you allow that what isn't knowable can ''not'' be know and if you try to avoid not trying to figure it out you will just end up in a Gregorian ''not''.

Just remember, I do not hate you, Jed.

All concepts are made up. I'm pointing to that within which all that is made up appears. It's really quite simple.

Love ya, Jed.

The underlying problem is that it is far too simple. Seeing it is easy, more logical than any mental structure ever created (it is paradoxical only for the mind). But there's the catch: mind wants the challenge, the thrill, the awe, something to hold on to. It's the whole reason to be here (and to give the ol' Jed something to pass the time)!

There is no world or here or there or the spoon without me making it seem so. Infinite possibilities and this fragmented crazy-porridge-of-a-reality is what we got?

Nice   :o 8)

About the vehicle: who says what is important and what is not? And to whom?

There must be a reference point for any graph to make sense. But the ideas of sense, logic don't exist without mind. Whether "here" exists when my "I am" is not, doesn't make sense. The concept of a world, a universe, is absent without the conceiver. It doesn't matter.

We perceive. We give meaning and withhold meaning. All that is (or isn't) is, precisely and only because we perceive it. If there is no perceiver there can be nothing perceived. Moreover, it has no meaning or relevance if I, me, is not "here" to do the perceiving.

Nothing = nothing.

Somehow I am creating all of this mirage. No idea how or what lies beyond me.

Lies are irrelevant, but if someone believes in them, they come to life. That makes the game worth playing. People express their creativity through their lies, that's why the lies are so beautiful.

The soul is creative, but would only express its creativity in a context in which it can benefit directly from its creations (in which there is an ego). As ego subsides, creativity is unleashed.

More or less. I post what I find interesting, what I'm discovering, but it's more than that. I welcome any feedback or guidance, whatever could help me to form a clear picture about what I'm discovering, to figure stuff out.

Different people have different points of view, different experiences. Each lives in a different cell, meaning each person has different limitations. Thus, each can have a unique contribution, this being the essence of the peer review process. I can only have one point of view about the subjects I am discussing, so I welcome other perspectives that can complete the picture. You and others who are more awake than me can see these things better or maybe recognize something from your own experience.

First off,  your arguing for your limitations. You can only have one point of view... says who? Try holding two points of view and then work you way up. I realize I might be sounding a little silly from the perspective of mind, but that's not where I'm coming from. Try it.

Love ya, Jed.
