In a way, I sympathize with unity100 on this. I, too, think we are all "faking it". I think that's what life is actually. It's sort of the basis for what I bombard Zenmaster with. I don't think anyone is truly "enlightened". I just think some enjoy filling their heads with that type of 'entertainment', I call it. ... Why am I here, honestly? Because I enjoy the search for the paranormal, but moreso because we have a group of people willing to discuss to great depths a particular source of material that addresses all paranormal ideas and is very detailed but debatable. It is something I have I need to occupy my mind, 'entertain' me. It is complex, complicated, extreme, and interesting. But as far as its deeper meaning goes, it actually explains itself in that regard. It is for each individual to decide. We always get to hide behind that notion. I'm here, you're there, we are supposed to be where we are for the harmony of everything. We are all just actors in our own play. Unity100 shapes his own mind and he doesn't want to see others as equal. 'oh, if you would just see the world as I do, then you would be happier.'. But we really just pretend to be happy with what we see. We struggle to reform our perspective to fit 'integration', 'individuating', 'polarizing'. Honestly, it boils down to a mental game we play with ourselves in order feel 'okay'. It's all just a cup of coffee on the back porch with a serene view. We are just the variety that enjoy loading up our brain muscles.
