Truth is what is being experienced. Honesty is expressing what is.

Lies are in the mind - which can be used as deception as words from one to another...

Being true to yourself. That's the answer. If something makes you mad, do something about it. If a person really grinds your gears, let them know.
People get unhappy cos they try and shoehorn themselves into whatever little box best fits them. These boxes are all based upon society's prejudices, fears and norms.

Be righteous. Don't be scared ever. Be honest about how you feel. It takes courage to tell people exactly what you think of them unless you hide your real feelings under thick layers of bull. Try it. Free yourself. Try being righteous and to hell with the consequences.

Chances are that I would see this body grab hold of said person.
It all just happens and no one is doing any of it.
It is done.

IF truth is what is being experienced, and I told you a lie... is that still truth?

The fact that the lie exists as words spoken from your mouth is true. The fact that you exist speaking such words is truth, but the lie was not experienced, it was just a fabrication of the mind so the lie itself isn't true, but the words are experienced.

If I said "I saw a cow jump over the moon" the fact that these words exist is true, but does that mean that a cow jumping over the moon is what was actually experienced? No.

Yes it is done. But humans always believe there has to be a reason and that is why they go to the mind for answers and that is why humans are so unhappy and frustrated.
The mind wants reason when really everything just is.

If everything is not being done they maybe you can stop it.
Maybe you can stop your next thought from arising. Maybe you can stop frustration from arising, maybe you can stop the earths rotation?

Nope...

I disagree...

Humans are so unhappy and frustrated because we've displaced ourselves from our natural environment...

Life in a box...

The mind wants reason when really everything just is.

Life has no meaning to you?

Theres no purpose?

If everything is not being done they maybe you can stop it.

I can...

Can't you?

Ok. Then you believe you can stop thought arising and maybe you believe you can stop the blood pumping through the body.

It is all just being done and no one is doing any of it.
There is no one - there is only ever this (what is happening presently).
What is happening is being noticed that is all.

Can the happening which is happening presently be stopped or changed?

No i dont think you can because its energy moving. This explains the sexual force that makes procreation happen doesnt it?

A different topic - sexual force. I am not willing to discuss this here.

The body is just a vessel... which you have limited control over...

It is all just being done and no one is doing any of it.

only if you choose to sit back and let it happen...

There is no one - there is only ever this (what is happening presently).

you're half right...

What is happening is being noticed that is all.

Also half right... I think...

yup...

You can get up, and do something... Ether way Now is what it is... but you seem to believe you have no affect on now...

If you get up - that is what is happening. Try not to get up. If you believe you are doing it - don't think again and don't get up. Try 'stopping' - to see if you are really in control.

You can't change now. It's impossible. Once something is happening, it is already happening. You talk about "getting up and leaving" but if you are intending that, then it would be the FUTURE , not now...

If someone says "pizza" to you. You didn't have no choice there, the word was already heard... Now is already happening...

its easy to trick your body into paralysis... It happens to a lot of people as they're waking from a deep sleep...

Can you stumble through life without attempting to control what you are given... what is?

So you can't prevent happenings?

In the now, things happen... You can affect things that happen or choose to stay clear of them...

You always have a choice in everything... In every situation...

Which means you create what happens... nothing in the now has no reason for being...

Its intereting what your explaining as it implies the idea we have free choice to choose whats happening is an illusion and free choice doesnt exist.
