Plain Talk for the common Man

It is often said, "They're not ready for this." Not ready for what? When you talk with someone (instead of at someone) with responsibility for being received, we are all super "ready".

I believe that God is using us to express its own feelings at these situations, which is pure entertainment for it (for a God who knows all, and everything that ever happens is something that it wanted to happen- unexpected misfortune must be really entertaining and make the universe feel less lonely) and some good endorphins to wash the blood/ tears down for you. But, you aren't ready for this, are you?

At 2:24 he laughs. Laughter is a "spontaneous" constriction of the larynx- not caused by thought as most of the time the person doesn't have time to internally think about the thing that happened before they laugh. Did you ever happen to notice that often times people find that misfortune to others is just hilarious? Perhaps you have seen this phenomenon on YouTube?

Therefore when people kill each other, it doesn't sound so insane because of the words involved. The were jealous, they were patriotic, they were insane. But God gets you to do and act and feel exactly how it wants you to, and it uses words as an excuse for it. Words aren't the reason, just the excuse. Words represents thought, but are not thought.

"And that's just like, an automatic reaction right? I mean like, that's all in the power of the thought." No, it isn't automatic. God gives you the thought that you are allergic to bees. Then God makes a bee fly past you, then God makes you spontaneously freak out. And instead of saying, "Why did I just act that ridiculous way?" You have an excuse for acting ridiculously, "because I thought I was allergic to bees."

I am a joe citizen, who's virtually jesus christ, my employer just "severed our relationship", for something i virtually said about truth & reality. To tell you the truth, I thank Allah they didn't sever my head.

Thought is not action, in this you are wrong. Action is what you do once you've thought the thing through. Mind you, many don't think things through all the way.

They don't understand what thinking is.

It's not all thought boys, in reality it's desire. Everybody desires to live.

It's tricky. Thoughts, emotions.. all this is pure. It's ok, there's no difference between samsara and nirvana.. it's just a matter of believing all of this to be 'real'.. but what is real? What does the word real mean? What does unreal mean?

It is just as it is, thoughts come and go.. emotions come and go.. people come and go.. It's just love.

And Richard you investigate and question well, however, learn how to sit still. Meditate.. listen.. listen to others talk.. :) lol

We live in a kind of virtual reality made out of thought. Often this virtual or cognitive reality is mistaken as actual reality. It is then a kind of blinder or distraction from actuality. We are cut off from awareness of being when we are lost in the mind. There is a sense that something is not quite right, but it's hard to identify exactly what is missing. This propels an endless search for substitutes for being. Clearly distinguishing the thought-made self from true being is key. Thanks
