About Me

hey everybody..im mariano and this is my special place in cyberspace...i like to run, preferable in epic natural surroundings. i like wakin up early. chillin by big bodies of water. listening to music. learning new things. playing guitar. drawing. walking outside. rock climbing (its been too long) altered states of perception. i believe we live in a universe of pure creativity where infinite possibilities manifest from the mind into this perceivable, existential reality called beauty. reality is nothing more than you're own creation..SO CREATE! ---------------...those who regard eternity as the ultimate reality are concerned with the present and with the ways and means of organizing the present world in such a way that will impose the fewest possible obstacles in the way of individual liberation from time and ignorance; those, on the contrary, who regard time as the ultimate reality are concerned primarily with the future and regard the present world and its inhabitants as mere rubble, cannon-fodder or potential slave labor to be exploited, terrorized, liquidated or blown to smithereens, in order that persons who may be never be born, in a future time about which nothing can be known with the smallest degree of certainty, may have the kind of a wonderful time which present-day revolutionaries and warmakers think they ought to have. If the lunacy were not criminal, one would be tempted to laugh.--------------Your name was whispered before you were born, and out from the mist your image took form. The Spirit of Life had begun its quest, to learn of itself through the ultimate test: A being of light set free in creation, to master the gift of imagination..... make

In sleep, one is released into the real world, of which the world of waking is only the surface in a very literal geometric sense. There is a plenum - recent experiments in quantum physics tend to back this up - a holographic plenum of information. All information is everywhere. Information that is not here is nowhere. Information stands outside of historical time in a kind of eternity - an eternity that does not have a temporal existence, not even the kind of temporal existence about which one may say, "It always existed." It does not have temporal duration of any sort. It is eternity. We are not primarily biological, with mind emerging as a kind of iridescence, a kind of epiphenomena at the higher levels of organization of biology. We are hyper spatial objects of some sort that cast a shadow into matter. The shadow in matter is our physical organism."

I'd like to meet:

and this man..its like 38 min but hopefully you have the time to visualize and understand some of it...and just ignore the other peopleWe live together, we act on, and react to, one another; but always and in all circumstances we are by ourselves. The martyrs go hand in hand into the arena; they are crucified alone. Embraced, the lovers desperately try to fuse their insulated ecstasies into a single self-transcendence; in vain. By its very nature every embodied spirit is doomed to suffer and enjoy in solitude. Sensations, feelings, insights, fancies - all these are private and, except through symbols and at second hand, incommunicable. We can pool information about experiences, but never the experiences themselves. From family to nation, every human group is a society of island universes. Most island universes are sufficiently like one another to Permit of inferential understanding or even of mutual empathy or "feeling into." Thus, remembering our own bereavements and humiliations, we can condole with others in analogous circumstances, can put ourselves (always, of course, in a slightly Pickwickian sense) in their places. But in certain cases communication between universes is incomplete or even nonexistent. The mind is its own place, and the Places inhabited by the insane and the exceptionally gifted are so different from the places where ordinary men and women live, that there is little or no common ground of memory to serve as a basis for understanding or fellow feeling. Words are uttered, but fail to enlighten. The things and events to which the symbols refer belong to mutually exclusive realms of experience.
