Things like this, so simple and easy to find but difficult to notice send a tear to my eye, planet Earth is in pain and she is dieing but we don't notice the beauties she holds and continue to kill her, things such as this make us seem so insignificant as there are much bigger things than us out there in our universe, but things like this make us seem that there is barely nothing in this universe, nothing at all just a seemingless reality of nothing, Notice things such as this we become un-real.

When things like this appear to our senses we tend to become obsilite in our world we call Earth, the many beautys of this planet something so small, something people would fail to notice! things such as a plastic bag dancing in the earths air with the fallen leaves of mid-Autumn, this is but a reminder as to what remarkable things are about this Earth, what things we can observe rather than sit in our homes and play video-games, observe the many beauties of planet earth i say, life is to short.

Our conditioning compells us to see the known, only the known. Seeing what our conditioning commands, fortifies that conditioning with each observance, and the process repeats endlessly (thinking in a groove) ... unless one wills it to stop, by disobeying the conditioning or silencing the mind. Difficult to do, but as with all things, repetition strengthens the "muscle".

For us to inquire into the truth, mustn't we first find out together what is "NOT" the truth??? I ask you Mr. "Cash" [ respectfully], if you see this conditioning within yourself, what is it of? Are you A Christian or Hindu or perhaps a Jew? What kind of Nationalist are you? For or against Gay rights? What about gun control? Abortion or right to life? We are preoccupied with all this foolishness in our societies, because early on in life we are taught what to think and not how to think.

What is the conditioning of? I think it is simply a part of being human. It is useless to lay blame on any subgroups of humanity - they are all "guilty". Anyone and everyone we come into contact with in our formative years becomes a teacher and teaches us, as you say, what to think, thereby constructing filters over our perception. With enough time and enough teaching, we learn how we are supposed to perceive the world. I would say self-fulfilling prophecy, but there's nothing prophetic about it

But self-fulfilling still seems accurate - we have an idea of the world, which we in turn see when viewing the world, which bolsters that idea of world that much more. But what are we missing by living within this loop?

I know this might be hard for you, as this seems to be the only thing YouTubers are capable of, but would please stop criticizing things for no reason? I understand that opinions differ, but it is nothing but dumb to go on and on about how this movie "sucks" without stating why you think so.
Just to sink lower so that you might feel more tempted to reply, you are clearly devoid of any depth or philosophical perspectives, so please shut up and stop criticizing things you don't understand, moron.

You have completely misunderstood everything about this scene. It's not the complexity behind it that's beautiful, nor is it the bag itself, it's the simplicity and beauty that lies in everything around you. It is the beauty you choose to see.
I know it can not be explained, but you should respect even the things you don't understand.

Isn't the bag dancing intrepidly, amidst the static energy created just before a winter storm beauty in motion? Have you ever noticed that whenever you observe someone or something, and give your whole attention to it , you cease to exist? Like watching a beautiful sunset, or the relentless and violent crashing of surf, or perhaps seeing a young woman stopping by the roadside on her bicycle to place a flower in her sun kissed golden hair....Even the street beggar.. We die in each moment. FREE

Whole attention -- absence of interpretation by the conditioned mind -- freedom.
