*So you're stating that the logic saying that if I spend an
*amount of energy to lift up the stone from the ground I would
*eventualy lift it is fake?
Nope. You haven´t got the idea. I´m telling that if you live for
achive things instead for enjoying it, you are losing the point.

*Let me rephrase the question: "If the direction of your mind
*commisioned by the power of your own will is bringing you to
*the place of your choosing how can you call it 'serious
*limitation of freedom'?!"
Your mind doesn´t need to be "comisioned" by the power of anything. It
just
do it´s duty as best as it can.
> Are you trying to tell me that "lettting the mind goe
> freely" is artificial?
*I didn't say anything about anything being or being not
*artificial. What I'm saying is that "lettting the mind goe
*freely" would be going down in the proces of evolution of life
*and concioussness.
So, do you think that stop being a slave from ideas that keep you split
and dumb is "going down in the proces of evolution of life and
conscioussnes"?.

*I said "...if you _wanted_ it..." (in case there was a book beyond
*your understanding) and you're asking me for the motivation for
*something you don't like and not being obligated to do? Answer:
*In wanting or choosing. You could have simply deduced the answer
*yourself had you allocated more focus to what I was writing -but
*you didn't choose or want to.
Okey. I´ll refocus my question. How are you going to "choose" or
"want to" do something "you don´t like and you are not obligated to do"?

I must agree that this the best part of the conversation. :).

No, indeed. :).

*It affects making a decision and you should listen to it -why do you
*have the need of labeling the 'listening of your body feedback' with
*'thinking with your body' -it only makes things more complicated and
*confused -what value do you see in that? Isn't it 'playing with
*details'?
If you wan to be "intelligent" you should do it.

*If you simply feel what is right and wrong why would you then
*complicate and 'use your body' to think about accepting or not
*a proposition anyway?
Precesely is your body the one who feels.

You can fake it the same if the relationship haven´t started yet.

*My practical experience seems to show otherwise -namely, I was
*circling my whole life and now that I've 'focused', I've stopped.
*I don't go in no particular direction but I've stopped circling and
*believing I'm going somewhere, which I find better.
You can become focused naturally. Being "focused" and "go in
circles" doesn´t have to go together.

*Yes it does.
*It takes a a decade for the society to convince your mind and you
*say that mind is easier to be convinced then the body and then you
*say that your body doesn't need to be convinced at all.
*That's very inconsistent.
It have taken two thousand years ( a far more ) to create the
situation where we live now. And in all this time the body have remained
pure and true where the mind is loose in all kind of fantasies. Where is the
"inconsistence" now?
> I think you are trying to tell that the brain have

*It's like saying 50 hours of chill-out music and 10 seconds of
*techno are the same -well, think what you want ;)
Then we have understood each other. :).

*It's only that you haven't included 10 years the society has
*already invested to make you a dumb ass not capable of thinking
*for himself (although the truth of convictions is arbitrary).
I think this is already answered at the "inconsistence" paragraph.
Chao!
