I don't deny that sometimes my turn of phrase goes unusual. I used to have that problem too. I found that by learning to write haiku, which requires only one salient point, rarely two, made with as few words as possible, had a crossover effect in much of my writing. :-) Ain't a problem. I like playing with words: their cadence, the texture of them in the mind. I can do clear and boring. When I want to.

I often enjoy it when for whatever reason I have a limited number of words I can write, and I have to express a somewhat convoluted point. It's amazing sometimes just how condensed a seemingly complex idea can get...something very satisfying about that.

So you believe physicality consists of appearances in Consciousness, but these appearances have to be "molded" to perform certain actions? Everything is appearing, appearances doesn't have to be molded to perform certain actions. They are appearing to be possessing certain characteristic. If they are real, then they have been created that way to bring out certain expression. My point eggzakly. "He has been molded to do such an act."

You are arguing certain subject brilliantly but in certain places you are not even taking much interest to go further. In fact in the past there were few places I got very clear when I read some of your post which I had not seen clearly prior to that. Thanks again. It's not that I'm not interested, it's just that I'm unsure as to what I'd write will be helpful to you or not. Part of the reason for my uncertainty is a recognition of my own limitations, part of it is because of the limited nature of our discourse on a forum like this, and part of it is all the negative energy on this forum.I'm sorry for my contribution to that part.

Best any of us can ever do is take responsibility. "To err is human, to forgive is divine". So, to apologize is to .. perhaps .. invite divinity.

The "appearance" of possession with certain characteristics, is itself, just an expression/appearance. One expression does not "cause" another. They are both facets of an encompassing, singular, undivided, movement/expression.

Abiding liberation/transcendence, means complete freedom from the dream....which means, freedom from suffering. For liberation to be "complete/abiding" ALL perceivables, ALL appearances, must be seen to be empty and devoid of fundamental, independent existence. There are no special cases, no specific, special experiences, perceivables/appearances that are somehow exempt, regardless of how sacred they seem to be to the person, regardless of how awe-inspiring they are.
If this seeing through is not all encompassing, all we are talking about is self-improvement...which means a betterment of experience...a sense of the person, the personal experience, being 'better off,' which is indeed, nothing to sneeze at, but....it's NOT SR...not liberation.
