@rosborne979,
Hi Rose,
If animals wouldn't be extremely intelligent, they wouldn't survive their first day.
They know to recognize that water will relieve their thirst, they know how to distinguish water from other matter and know how to identify it.
They know how to dip their mouths into it,
How to command their limbs into this process.
All of that, without a single word.
It is not knowledge, it is divine intelligence.
To be an extension of this sacred energy, not obscured by the virtual world of sign, signal and symbol (language),
This is bliss.
Now, regarding choice.
Choice doesn't exist,
Will does exist, but not human will,
The same with thought,
Human thought does not exist,
It only exists as sound, like a language unknown to you, sounds to you.
The synthetic counterfeit virtual human, the ego, which is the thought itself,
To this concept,
Thought exists and nothing else actually.
Thought is what the human being isn't and cannot be.
if the word "I" , would have meant what it is supposed to mean, it would imply a statement.
I, the statement . loves you.
this is just an example, language cannot mean what it means, let alone "be" what it means.
it is synthetic existence only.
Will represents a single isolated idea,
Therefore, the emotion within the idea wants, not the human being.
To be clear,
Emotion is man made material, it is not the human being itself,
Emotion is the bi-product of words taken literally, beyond their intended utility.
The will to win for instance, is an evolving emotion,
at the stage of longing, it gravitates towards fulfillment (fulfillment of the emotional ego, not fulfillment of the human beings needs).
At the stage of fulfillment, it resumes towards worry (so that this particular emotional ego, continues to survive through consuming consciousness through attention.
It never settles down in the present moment, because it will be exposed as counterfeit existence.
It therefore keeps digging in the non existent future, where nothing exists to alert the authorities and give the emotion direct consciousness instead of synthetic mental awareness.
Choice, is the misconception of multiple contradicting ideas fighting (and the one with the most emotional impact,
always Winning) Wrongly Perceived as a single mind deciding.
But the mind is only the basket hosting a billion competing agendas (individual, micro minds).
It's like a community, a country, a world of individuals, arch enemies of each other.
It therefore is not a chosen decision,
But an individual ego's victory among a divided, fragmented ego population.
