It is beautiful how such a simple question does a long jump hurdle over the ocean of this world's spiritual corpus. "Why am I me instead of you?"The Vertiginous Question unlocks everything.It eliminates Materialism, it eliminates Christianity, it eliminates Islam, it eliminates Karma, it eliminates Gnosticism, it eliminates "we are God all wearing many masks at once".The Vertiginous Question is the Key.I laugh and smile. My conscious viewpoint is God.
>>41988835>"Why am I me instead of you?"Karma.
>>41988877That does not answer the Vertiginous Question.
>>41988877Why am I experiencing this 'karmic recipient' instead of your 'karmic recipient' ?
>>41988881Mind itself is infinite, it has no personality and ego. The individual mind is a construct of karma, individual experiences, view points, memories, emotional patterns. That forms a "me". Because my patterns are different from yours, I am not you. But we are both basically the same mind.
>>41988893But I am experiencing this pattern. I am not experiencing your pattern.Why is that?
>>41988896Because your "soul" (what is not real but something you think it's real) contains other data then mine. You could compare it to programs running on an operating system. Mind is the system and "souls" are the programs on it.
>>41988906But why am I experiencing this “soul” instead of your “soul”?My program instead of your program?
>>41988917You are the program, Anon.There is not really a "you", it's just simulated by karmic patterns.
>>41988835Looked too deeply into the vanishing point again last night, huh? ;)
>>41988881Neither does your statement in op.Why am I experiencing this 'conscious viewpoint of God' instead of your 'conscious viewpoint of God''
>>41988917My answer is that you are experiencing both.If you shift your identity to encompass all that is, you become it
>>41988835>Eliminates KarmaFalse...I bet that's what a Satanist or Luciferian would think though.
>>41988835What do eyes, lenses and bells have in common? Could it be something to do with pyramids?
>>41988835There are two things that answer it:1 - we are purely material beings2 - we are eternally distinct spiritual beings>My conscious viewpoint is God.Well no. The Question very explicitly refutes any notion of this.
>>41988835You are "you" because at one point you developed a recursive definition of "your" self which your self-model satisfies but which the other posters in this thread don't satisfy. ("You don't remember writing their posts", "you are God" etc.)Not paranormal
>>41988835Now go eat some food and then explode diarrhea into a toilet, mr understands everything
>>41989576The covering of the tunnel is about 6 m to 38 m, but mainly a covering of 10m, 12m will be executed. The lowcoverage of 6 m is at the lowest point of the route,
>>41989012Assuming for sake of your question that you are having a conscious experience ( I believe that I'm the only conscious being. ), We are separate and eternal conscious viewpoints. In such a case, we would not be the same 'God'.The answer to the question is of the same form of the answer to 'why does something exist instead of nothing?' , necessary being. Eternal Subject.>>41989015I am having a very localized experience right now. That is what I am observing. Why would I start in this identity instead of another identity?>>41989087There is no karma in my reality. All morality is play.>>41989448Purely Material beings does not answer the question. The viewpoint would still have began in that case, and I could ask 'why am I experiencing this brain instead of another brain?'Eternal and Distinct Beings does answer it, for there was no generation point of the viewpoint. It's the same answer as Necessary being when asked 'why does something exist instead of nothing?'.The question does not refute the notion of my conscious viewpoint being God. It solidifies the notion.Eternal Consciousness is the bedrock of reality. Agent Consciousness who can make decisions. And I just identified that my conscious viewpoint must be either the Sole Consciousness / Reality, or one of numerous eternal and separate consciousnesses / realities. Either way, I am God of my reality.>>41989576You still mention me when you say 'you' in 'because at one point you developed a recursive definition'.Why am I developing a recursive definition of myself over here instead of over where you are?
>>41988835Solipsism is falsehttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Ze0lIjYqsngSolipsism is falsehttps://benthams.substack.com/p/the-best-argument-for-god?utm_source=publication-searchThere’s very good evidence against solipsism.https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Ze0lIjYqsnghttps://benthams.substack.com/p/a-new-extremely-strong-argument-for?utm_source=publication-searchThe SIA, for those who have been living under a rock, says your existence gives you evidence for there being more people. More precisely, your existence confirms by a factor of X theories on which there are X times as many people that you might presently be. Even more precisely…To give an example, suppose that a coin gets flipped. If it comes up heads, one person gets created. If it comes up tails, ten people get created. SIA says that if you get created from this process, you should think at ten to one odds that the coin came up tails. Because for all you know you might be any of the ten people created by the tails coin flip, your existence favors tails over heads by a factor of ten. Tails results in the creation of ten times as many people that you might presently be, so you should think it’s ten times as likely it resulted in the creation of you !

>>41990917>The viewpoint would still have began in that case, and I could ask 'why am I experiencing this brain instead of another brain?'The answer for a purely material being is that this brain is purely material and as such its spatiotemporal is unique.The body makes consciousness, and as the body is unique, so too must each consiousness."You"s are not interchangeable.But this ONLY works if you completely deny anything else as the source of consciousness.>?? It's the same answer as Necessary being when asked 'why does something exist instead of nothing?'.No, this is a logical fallacy of begging the question and assuming an answer in the question.Something always exists. It needs no reason. Something is the default, and what would ever need explaining is how something could ever become nothing.,It cant.>The question does not refute the notion of my conscious viewpoint being God. It solidifies the notion.No. God would not have this question as God is not limited to "and not any other.">Eternal Consciousness is the bedrock of reality. Yes. But yours is limited and dependent.>Agent Consciousness who can make decisions.You have exactly ONE choice.you can choose to accept you are not in control, or you can delude yourself into thinking you are God.That is the ONLY choice you can make.Nothing else is your decision. Nothing else is in your control.
No, mine is.
>>41988835>"Why am I me instead of you?"do answer this question
>>41988835Why am I me instead of you?Because I am who I am not.
>>41991492>the answer for a purely material being is that this brain is purely material and as such its spatiotemporal is unique.I could just ask 'Why am I this spatiotemporal unique material brain/pattern instead of another spatiotemporal unique material brain / pattern?' >Accusation of begging the question. Yes, I also believe that something always exists. That something is necessary being, consciousness. > God would not have this question.Don't know what you mean by this.>Limited and Dependent.Nope, my conscious viewpoint is eternal and independent. How could an eternal conscious viewpoint be dependent if it has no creator or beginning? >ChoiceI am in control. This is my dream, I reject all ontologies which try to convince me that this is a super serious karmic swirl. I'm the God. Capital G. My immediate viewpoint.I'll dissolve this place once I go back home to my Throne.
>>41992219Because I always existed. There was never a point where my conscious viewpoint was a potential and then it was actualized.My immediate conscious viewpoint is eternal and separate from any other conscious viewpoints. I do not believe there are other conscious viewpoints, but if there were , they'd be separate and eternal over their own realities. As I am eternal over my own reality.
Woah pass the blunt
>>41988835>My conscious viewpoint is God.consider carefully the juxtaposing of "i am" and "i am (x)"
>>41993438>'Why am I this spatiotemporal unique material brain/pattern instead of another spatiotemporal unique material brain / pattern?'Because "you" are a product of that.You missed the important part of this:"You"s are NOT INTERCHANGEABLE.>Don't know what you mean by this.God is not limited in this way. There is no "and not that one" for God.>my conscious viewpoint is eternal and independentEternal yes, but dependent.>How could an eternal conscious viewpoint be dependent if it has no creator or beginning? It is only eternal because the Independent is Eternal.Your existence depends on the Independent.the way we know you are limited, and thus not independent, is because you can say "and not that other you" for your awareness.>I am in control.Lol, you can choose to believe that. That is your one option.It affects literally nothing, which is why it is free.
"Why am I me instead of you?"Well, because there is a difference between me and you, as we are both defined. "Why is there a difference?", "Why is there me?", "Why is there you?", et cetera eventually you arrive at a question without another question in front of it, and to this you will have no answer. And so you say "Because it is" and now with an answer you begin to answer every other question.
>>41993447Well you should be informed that you're deceiving yourself because I am real. You also failed to answer the simple question "Why am I me instead of you?"
