lol What, birth itself is not part of the life cycle?! You tentflaps are worse than I thought! You'd be better off if you'd never been bor... ( hold it Dejavu! Don't come to their terms! ;-D ) ... bored. Keep blowing in the wind. The answer's there if you want it. If you agree the body is its communication as far as we're concerned, why claim not to identify it? Got a zit that needs popping teeny bopper? Not alone in depression but its maintenance. I'll be spelling out everything for you always. On your groovestain I shall inscribe the following epigraph, or spraypaint it, should someone get to you first: "Here lies thedope, who lied that he wasn't his body. Can you dig it?" So you do now want us to be our bodies? Was the fact of our already being them holding you up? lol No, with my body. LOL Perception isn't sensory information?! Having found their desire wanting, the tentative want to discover a necessity of being! lol Probably? :-D What extra weight? Why are you never without your "communication device" dope? Is it glued to your butt? When I said grip your dictionary and push, I didn't mean for you to stick it. You have it arse about. When I say who I am, I do so by being what I am. I am because my body is. Descartes was a drunken fart. Between we two, you alone speak for the division of yourself into two entities: "I am 'not' my body" Having is being, whether you like it or not. Your purchase on the matter is void, for your renouncing having as being. In your perception. Well, you've come to the right person, since my verdict is not guilty. You have my love. The tentative are still tentative though thedope. Are you certain that guilt is a barrier to love? :-D As luminaries, I shine a little harder than you. Do you find it dark of me to say so? Granted, it's redundant! lol
Every cell in the body is replaced every 7 years. Therefore, by you hypothesis, you could be 12 different people during your lifetime.
Thanks for allotting me me more than my three score and ten Monkeyboy! What you call my hypothesis isn't one. I'm never without my body. If my cells are ever replaced all at once, I'll let you know!
Me. My body's mine, because it's me. Being's having. A truth thedope often likes to transmit, one I contracted at once, one he can't himself seem to come to terms with. So, who are you?
(portions of the fallowing may be a work of fiction) "we know who you are" "who i am is no great secret. i am themnax of lananara, low person of the council of low persons of the universe and symbol of the council of low persons of lananara. which "we" are you?" "if you're this themnax, why are you wearing the body of john teall?" "i was in this body when it was born. THAT, as you probably know, is the only way i could be here legally. i am here on your world to keep it from being destroyed. there are people on the galactic council who seem to think your world is the greatest threat there has ever been to the peace and freedom of the civilized universe. if you don't want it to be destroyed, i would suggest that you don't prove them right." "and we call bullshit on that. we think you just want money based politics to be destroyed, but you're too lazy or cowardly to do it yourself, so you inspire little things here and there, for other people to do it for you. if you're such a big galactic high munkymuck, how come you've lived most of your life as no better then a leach and a bum?" "i'm not here to interfere, only observe, and by being here and observing, to delay the otherwise inevitable, until a more thorough and accurate assesment can be made. like i said, if you don't want your world to be destroyed, you really need to stop convinicing the rest of the universe, that it really needs to be." "lets see you superpowers." "sorry. i'm just some guy. who got elected. to do a job. the job of observing this earth, for the natural lifetime of anyone else who is born here. lananarans are just people like humans are just people. but if the galactic council decides the only safe course for everyone else is to destroy this world, it WILL self destruct. not only its physical existence, but its entire history of ever having existed. that's not a threat. that's not even a final decision that's up to me. like i said; i'm just here. i volunteered to be here, to give this world a chance. and by doing so, i made myself just as expendable as youreslf and everyone on it. and no, i'm not some suicide bomber. how in the hell could i carry enough of anything on ME to destroy a whole world? besides i don't WANT your world to be destroyed. that's why i'm here. in the hope that it won't have to be." "and you expect us to believe that?" "i expect you to do, whatever your supervisors feel to be wisest. i can't even tell you what will happen if you were to terminate me. i don't know that myself. but if i may so humbly sugggest, i really don't think that would be a very good idea" "hay hay, we don't just terminate people, come on, we're the good guys, remember?" "that too is up to you, and whoever you take orders from. good, bad or indefferent, i seem at this moment to be in your power. if you're going to tell me i'm free to walk out that door, i shall cheerfully intend to do, precisely that" "you know what i think?" "sure. you think i'm crazier then a bed bug. i know i would. doesn't change any of what i've said though" "you think we can't chage your tune?" "i don't think anything of the sort. of course you can break me. make me say anything you want me to say. words though, won't change the truth of what i've already told you." "you think if we kill you little green men are going to come down and rescue you?" "no. i think if you killl me, i'll be dead." "and then they'll come down and destroy this earth?" "they're not little, they're not green, and thay don't have to come any closer then they already are" "oh and where's that?" "further away then you can get there from here. further away then you can even imagine how far." "and they're gonna distroy this world from that far away? by some kind of hocus pocus remote control?" "i don't know what anyone is going to do. i know that is what they were going to do before i insisted on comming here first." "that's not much of a threat" "i'm an old man. i'm going to die sooner or later anyway. i'm not trying to make threats. nothing i've said is intended to be one. what i am, why i'm here, i don't have the authority by myself to make any kind of threat. i'm just here to observe and not interfere. that's all. i'm only telling you what little i know." "then you're a spy" "in a manor of speaking, if you want to call it that. i'm not interested in your secrets though. i don't need to know any of that. just how likely humans are or are not, to become honest law abiding citizens of a civilized universe" "so you think humans are terrorists to the rest of the universe?" "i don't make that assumption. that is the concern the rest of the universe has though" "what do you think? do you think humans are terrorists" "i have reached no conclusion. the potential is there for you, just as you seem to see it in me."
Yes I do, I am me and no one even tho they tried could change me. I am hard set about my ways and how I dress and what I do for fun and for work. I have a twin, a biological twin and many people say I look like people they know as well so I probably have many twins. I have ran into people who I felt almost close enough they might be my other twin in life that you spoke of but no one is really me that closely I could be sure. I do have a common face as people have said to me that there are others that remind them of me in physical looks, heard that often. All in all I am so not anyone else in my mind.
Yes it is. I did identify it. The body is a communication device. Humm contracted maintenance. I was wondering what disgust you got over? So sickness is for you to pay attention to the body? If you are your body why do you need to pay attention. Isn't your body's attention enough? Perception isn't knowledge. I can put my body on auto pilot and go do other things while it is occupied. Alright numb skull having a body is the same as being embodied. When you say who you are you are describing who you think you are. If you say I am Dejavu then you would be closer than I am my body. You could say, I am a human being and be closer than saying I am my body. As far as being divided into two entities that is not what I suggest but that we are an agglomerate of conscious units, a multitude not two. I didn't. Having a body is the same as being embodied. Not the same as being a body although being embodied is having being in a body. There are no barriers to love. i said barriers to the perception of love. Don't get your panties in a wad for the effort, I radiate easily and without modesty. I think you must be hiding if it is hard to shine.
My sister inlaw keeps trying to convert me to Christianism, something that will never happen but she often says my life would be better if I followed her church and their rules and regulations,,, ha! How could I be happier but to win a lottery? I am not hungry for anything, I have built my retirement fund and am living an easy life doing what I love most. And I am still young. How can you improve on that except to win a huge bunch of money and do nothing the rest of your life? Even then I would have to keep doing what I do or volunteer somewhere because I can't just sit and do nothing. Religion does not give you anything you didn't have before except if you were a jerk and it taught you how not to be. I know loads of religious poor people who never gained a thing but to have a following to lean on. You have to be yourself and enjoy the people around you, if you can't you have to rid them from your life and still be everything you can be for yourself and those important ones around you.
lol -- So, which part of the life cycle are we dying from? You haven't identified it as yourself. Farewell. You're the one claiming an inevitability of depression through identification with the body. Disgust at your not wanting us our bodies. Keep dodging my questions. You won't dodge being your body. Lifes identifying how best to overcome itself is a natural phenomenon. The notion that one isn't ones body remains a notion. Rest in pieces. Your lie. Where is knowledge not perceived? You've never answered this question, and you never will. Not outside its occupation. You're it. How closer than saying I am my body? lol Your attempt at separating yourself from your body is psychotic. It's a psychosis 'widely' shared however, so you can tuck into your agglomerate, you can play out the rest of your life, in play! I love play, so much that I want to play for real. Disembodiment is a myth made in disenchantment. You do suggest having is not being. Your suggestion is unappreciated, no matter the degree you share it. LOL!! How is ones embodiment not the same as being ones body? I take back the assault charge I laid on the english language with regard to you. It's having its way with you beyond anything I can possibly do to apprehend it! :-D I admit to setting you up for this one. But then it is like chess with you, almost. lol Can you see the 'endgame' as I can? Does love have to be conceived as blind for you to face it? Love is only ever its perception. Limit perception as much as you like. My only caution would be to say it's more likely you'll want it unlimited. Is your shine defined by as great a redundancy as mine though?! lol Are your beams as divinely useless as my own? :-D Does your gold pour out, or does it only tally up? Vain questions! Let's get to the heart of the matter! Do you want us to be our bodies, or not?!
You are conceiving of death as antithetical to life and that is because you feel potential must be embodied. In biology, a life cycle is a series of changes in form that an organism undergoes, returning to the starting state. We go from conception to conception. The thought comes first and always. I am that I am, hello. Your the one that objects and your point is? We feel pressed down by sickness. Everyone gets sick. It is part of acquired immunity. I haven't dodged your questions. Your disgusted by what you think is my desire? I think you should take another survey as I am not the progenitor of your view. If my desire on this issue were recognized nothing could be seen. Oh brother. Life wants to overcome itself? The vain have a tendency to measure themselves. Is this more of your more moron? I know you want to live forever not even knowing what one minute amounts to. I don't know, evidently you are wrong. Multi-talented Your lack of appreciation is not my problem. I do not suggest having is not being. I said having a body is being embodied. As soon as you can state that you are your body without making the possessive statement then I will take a look that you may have being there. Is death a myth made in disenchantment? You are absolutely enchanted by the fear of it. You certainly don't care to understand it rejecting it as an affront to those who live more decently or brighter. That you live forever in your current form will be our proof I suppose although I've never met any that could keep up with that realization so your rap is safe even if you do eventually materially dissolve. Can't and won't are not the same. Since when was it ordained you put a lid on potential? We are a three part being matter having three properties, absorption, reflection, and polarity. Thought, word, and deed. E-motion, mind, and body. There is no endgame but you can stop gaming any time. Love is perception eh? Knowledge is love then. No, I know what it is for and it's function never changes. Yes, solution is equal dispersal. I have no stake in that question. It is not a heartfelt issue for me. I like the body and I am grateful to be. Do you think I should be wanting for something?
