    This is the same concept of the butterfly effect... If you've ever taken philosophy class....enh, i can't get into it now. [/b][/quote]
    if ur talkin about the movie then, yeah ur right, but the "butterfly effect" itself is an entirely different concept. and yeah dont wannna get into it, cuz its sorta complicated.

    Feliks.. that is not the same concept as the butterfly.. not that it cant be compatible with it, its just two different concepts.., And Philosophy is such a broad field.. i dont think most classes would focus on either of these issues in any institution

    Jez.. would you still feel the same kind of choice if your dejavu covered everything you did rather than seleted moments.?

    dejavu's could just be perceptions that skip your short term memory and jump straight into long term. That's why it's weird to recognize one, because it is brand new yet in your long term memory aswell.

    I dunno, just a theory i read somehwere.

    Sounds about right. What if deja vu is also the repitition of something that occured say... In a dream or something? I often find myself having symbolic, vivid dreams that lead to the event really occuring in my life sometimes. So having said that, maybe deja vu is a form of mental insight?

    maybe deja vu is the recognition of an event that has happened to you in some sort of parallel existence. maybe its the recognition of something youve seen in dreams or past life or a life yet to be lived. maybe its the sensation of experiencing the exact same situation as someone else has already experienced thus adding to the experience of the collective as a whole.. or maybe its that feeling you get when you really need a snickers.

    The Teachings of The Compassionate Buddha
    Chapter XVII
    ANGER

    Let a man leave anger, let him forsake pride, let him overcome all bondage. No sufferings the man who is not attached to name and form, and who calls nothing his own.
    He who holds back rising anger like a rolling chariot, him I call a real driver; other people are but holding the reins.
    Let a man overcome anger by love, let him overcome evil by good; let him overcome the greedy by liberality, the liar by truth. Speak the truth; do not yield to anger; give, if you are asked, even though it be little: by these steps you will come near the gods.
    The Sages who injure no one, who always control their body- they will go to the unchangeable place where, if they have gone, they will suffer no more.
    Those who are ever watchful, who study day and night, and who strive after Nirvana, their passions will come to an end....
    Beware of bodily anger, and control your body. Leave the sins of the body, and with your body practice virtue.
    Beware of the anger of the toungue, and control your toungue. Leave the sins of your toungue, and practice virtue with your toungue.
    Beware pf the anger of the mind, and control your mind. Leave the sins of the mind, and practice virtue with your mind.
    The wise who control their body, who control their toungue; the wise who control their mind, are indeed well controlled.

    SALVO - buddhism is good shit but hard to commit to. I try.


    I'm a big fan of implicit order and using non-addictive phsycoactives to bend your reality. Especially DMT which is also transmitted naturally during your REM sleep to produce dreams.

    If you don't know what implicit order is, then google is for you. It's too hard to explain. David Bohn has a few good books on it.

    The Teachings of The Compassionate Buddha
    Chapter XIII
    The World

    Do not follow the evil law. Do not live on in thoughtlessness. Do not follow false doctrine. Be not a friend of the world. Rouse yourself. Do not be idle. Follow the law of virtue. The virtuous rest in bliss in this world and the next.
    Follow the law of virtue; do not follow that of sin. The virtuous rest in bliss in this world and the next.
    Look upon the world as you would on a bubble, look upon it as on a mirage: the king of death does not see him who thus looks down upon the world.
    Come, look at this world, glittering like a royal chariot; the foolish are immersed in it, but the wise are not attached to it. He who formerly was reckless and afterward became sober brightens up this world, like the moon when freed from clouds. He whose evil deeds are covered by good deeds brightens up this world, like the moon when freed from coulds...

    What I really wonder about though, is birth. Now, science would have us believe that the atoms we're made of have existed since the beginning of time, imagine how powerful a pull--be it spiritual or chemical-- a man and women generate when seed and egg come together. It's like... Gravity draws everything to a center point, and then it just comes together.

    Like we're the product of a Big Bang. Pun intended. :p

    nothing philosphical about that.

    big bang = theory = false. i was not derived from a dust particle, but from an intracately designed fertilised egg.
