The Great Questions

The following is from the book, What the Bleep Do We Know!? Let's start a collection of Great Questions!

What is your Great Question?

“Asking yourself these deeper questions opens up new ways of being in the world.
It brings in a breath of fresh air.
It makes life more joyful.
The real trick of life is not to be in the know, but to be in the mystery.”
~ Fred Alan Wolf

P.S. What is the One Thing you know for sure?

Re: The Great Questions

The one thing we know for sure?
There is an everything, a something and a nothing. and none of these things we can see. but we now there is energy! (this is why most quantum mechanics express both time and distants in energy)

Re: The Great Questions

Thanks Frederik :-)

Here's my Great Question…

Without my Senses, what is the true nature of Reality?

Re: The Great Questions

Hmm, I don't really know. I'd say, that without your senses, there isn't much good to your reality either. What is there to enjoy…?

Re: The Great Questions

Wow is that a super “great” question.  I feel an answer, but I cannot express it.  I'm physiologic now and experience through senses.  Who are we to say there are no senses, whether they be human-like or no, outside of these bodies?  We can't know (do we really know the quantum, beyond?).  Then there are the senses that we do not know, surely there are senses we do not know - must we be in a body to experience them? 

As a human being, I would have to say that without the senses I would simply be a program completing itself and, I presume, aware of that fact–or nothing more than physics carrying through the big bang.  Not what I subscribe to, but given the question…

This is your great question, so surely you've given it some thought.  So it's your turn - what would the nature of reality be without your senses?

Re: The Great Questions

Alas Zoe I have no answer… this is a question for contemplation & the way to the answer is through thought experiment or meditation… the closest I have gotten is a concept of space…  there are so many levels to this… in the model I can only attempt to describe it at a very practical & mundane level… in this Great Question I'm attempting to hold the space for an experience of the Ultimate relisation of our true Self & Reality… Namaste…

Re: The Great Questions

I often asked myself that. I wouldn”t know if we would have a sense of self?

Re: The Great Questions

Q:     What is the One Thing you know for sure?
A:      Reality response to my most inconceivable or far-reaching leap into the unknown  /
         nonexisting;  is a newly created universe laying bare all set waiting for my landing foot

Q:     Without my Senses, what is the true nature of Reality?
A:     I feel  is  the answer

Re: The Great Questions

i feel the A for the first quest could be put more simply :

any quest that i may have, be it a most inconceivable or far-reaching, if i dare to step over through the unknown (you may call it meditating or viewing  the material of the quest - and that can be any substance or non substance as you find them;) - when you eventually set your foot down on what feels like a steady ground again, you'll be amazed to find not only that the necessary piece of land available for you to step on over there; but an entirely new world is the result of your passing through your quest to the other side….

The one TRUTH i know

at the end of the day, all the research, various theories, perspectives, dimensions, religions, countries, cosmos, kingdoms,

the one TRUTH i know,
which for me is the GREATEST TRUTH
and truthfully, the only TRUTH we should need
to BE the WE, we ARE…..

which is all, ALL, inanimate and animate objects…..
in our essential ‘make up’,
molecular cellular atoms……molecules, cells, nuclei, ENERGY, LIGHT…..
everything, ALL
and from there…………

blessed be thee
angels divine
within the embracing light of
peaceful loving serenity,

Re: The one TRUTH i know

That we create our reality all the way no matter where we exist.

Co-Creating a planetary reality here on earth that works for all is now possible by focusing on the question what is money and how to design it so it becomes  a pure medium  of infinite possibilities. See my blog  last two entry  on radical shift  and conscious money.

Re: The one TRUTH i know

What is Conscious Money? Money that knows whither it is bound and whence it came? Haan! Strange….but if water knew where its source was and how knowledge would change it….there is so much Truth in just about everything we wish to seize, yet it all seems an untruth when a newer version of Truth, as it were, seizes us. All i know, for now, is that without my senses i would be an inanimate piece of junk. For now, i am my senses, that's my truth.

Re: The Great Questions

How do we “do it”?  This is just here because I wish for people to see this!  Alex, thank you for seeding this out there sometime back.  I found this resource today of ALL DAYS.  I hope as many of you as possible will go to the following link, and then click on ”Highlights”.  The piece by Herbie Hancock, who I know on somewhat of a personal level, was mindblowing to me - to have found and seen TODAY!!!
