What is moving?

An old story:

Two monks saw a flag in the wind asking what it would be that is moving.

It is the flag, said one monk.

It is the wind, said the other one.

A teacher who had listened to them, said while walking by:

It is your mind that is moving...

  • Basically put the Physical Universe is nothing special, its a playground, that's it. Every single thing here is lifeless until a Consciousness activates it. Nothing but a bunch of matter, energy that has died and collapsed into packets of density. Even physical light - photons - just another form of matter.

     

    If you have a Movie sitting on your shelf, but you aren't currently watching it... is that movie playing?

    Consciousness is the "Play" button. Whatever the Consciousness is focused on is what it has selected to "Play".

     

    This is the whole reason why the Law of Attraction works. What you Focus on... is what you choose to press "Play" on.

     

    In this particular story, the Mind = Consciousness. Though technically the Mind is just one part of an individual's Consciousness.

    The Mind/Consciousness of an individual does not exist in the physical world. If the brain is destroyed (what secular teaching says is the mind) the Consciousness still exists.

  • Consciousness creates Time.

    All of physical existence is nothing more than a set of potential realities. Like still frames of a movie. It is meaningless without motion being given to it, simply information and nothing more.

    The Consciousness (Mind) is non-physical but its focus on the physical creates the sense of Time through perceived Motion. As if to flip through those still frames like a projector.

     

    This is why the Mind is the one moving the Flag.

  • give me a little bit. . I have just become aware of it last night. . ;) gotta kinda. . hmmm. . let myself chill a bit, like letting whats cookin settle a little  <3

    also let it grow. . I mean. . whatever goin on in their :) let it grow. . "truth" is like a part of a larger body of organs, that as a whole is all truth etc etc. . the organs function all as part of the whole in very specific ways. . but I don't think they fit together in the way of a contraptional machine of perfection :) hehe. . . we are organic for many reasons I'm sure ;) hehe

    I am realizing things I have to say, but is about. . well. .almost everyone here will tear it apart ;) especially those who bring "the truth" etc etc, the growing forwardness has to be playfull at some level to let us fit and put things together in ways that only the universe knows. . (pointing at my whole body)

  • Perception is seen through the eyes and interpreted through the brain. It is the body that I see moving for the mind is something more.
    • you think maybe. . motion is a means of being a great carrier of information, the kind that is of the infinite-universe-information line of things, like light does and the body as well. .

      . . or have I just been reading too many sci-fi novels before I hit the sack at night  xD

  • perhaps more then the mind even. . (or sometimes)
