   Conscious perception is a controlled hallucination. The more we research consciousness scientifically the more we come to realize that we are a part of the universe and not apart from the universe, and when our consciousness inevitably comes to an end, that is not something to be afraid of.

   But this thread is still 8th grade garbage.

   
   This thread was never meant to be a work of art. It's about a video I watched while eating my breakfast this morning. Did you even watch it, or is your bias preconceived?

    Einstein was a fan of Spinoza's god, which is the god of all with infinite attributes. All is God. The appearance of you and your apparent free will is the illusion. For Einstein's understanding of the universe was as a mathematically operating deterministic structure. With time becoming just another dimension within space time, Einstein envisioned the universe as a block, where from "outside" all states would already be present and/or implied.

    Not really, I live a proper, successful adult life.
    
    If growing up means you're not allowed to think about this stuff, I guess I'd rather be perpetually 15.

    Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one.

    Originally posted by Fox Paws But the problem in your analogy is that your “self” is not distinct from your “brain”. They are the same thing. So I don’t get the analogy about talking to a friend on the phone. It’s not like your brain saw something, then processed the information and delivered it to “you” via Facebook livestream or fucking whatever.
    
    You ARE your brain. So yeah I don’t get the analogy

    
    The self is an illusion, a dream, a ghost. "You" don't really exist. You're just an idea. You are not your brain or your body or the environment that caused these things. You just think you are.

    Originally posted by HTS Because whether or not it's true kinda doesn't matter and I think about shit like this all the time despite how pointless it is and seeing that other people are wasting their lives thinking about the same stupid bullshit kind of bothers me. People need to just shut up and stop this bullshit mind virus from spreading.

    
    It doesn't matter but that doesn't mean it's a "waste". I enjoy my life and have not wasted it obsessing over this stuff. If anything thinking about this stuff has made my life better. I don't know if this is a "mind virus" and I don't know if that really matters at all. We don't need to talk about this stuff, but we don't need to shitpost or talk about site drama or a woman hate or a whole host of other things either. I don't go around telling everyone I think they're stupid though or that they are wasting their lives.
    
    But you do you.

    I honestly don’t understand how you can have all these ideas about the self being an illusions and all that, and still get upset about shit. Like if you legitimately believed what you claim to then why do you let anything bother you at all?
    
    The person you’re talking to doesn’t even exist so why get mad about it

    
    I only want to understand her motivation/intent.

    Originally posted by HTS You're right, I don't have to be a bitch about it. I'm sorry, Obbe… I think. 🤔

    
    Ok so why did you give the response you did? Just tired of hearing about this sort of thing over and over again? Do you disagree with it or agree with it or what?

    Interesting video:
    
    
    
    Claims that your perception, even your sense of self, is a type of hallucination.
