GeneHilbert	Date: December 25, 2008 @ 1:33 AM Works for me.... One of my favorite quotes is: "Reality is for those that can't handle drugs". Author Unknown

SimonWaldram	Date: December 25, 2008 @ 1:23 PM The concept of reality is a paradox, as it is something we create ourselves, either as an individual or within a larger group or society. Some people seems to accept the harshness of life because "that's the real world" or "just the way it is", but really these are social constructions designed to economic structures. However, I see nothing wrong with people creating their own reality, in fact I think it can be a very empowering and beautiful thing. I see punk movements as people doing this. One of my favourites is the Washington DC scene from the late 70's to the mid-to-late 80's because those involved did everything on their own terms and were not reliant on larger powers. In terms of a more elemental reality - if such a thing exists - then the closest we can get to it as humans is probably through things like walking through forests and mountains, making love, cooking and eating food you have grown yourself...and so on.

SimonWaldram	Date: December 25, 2008 @ 2:59 PM No I haven't. Tell me about it please
SimonWaldram	Date: December 25, 2008 @ 3:03 PM Oops, just spotted a couple of missing words in my post. It should have read "...these are social constructions designed to perpetuate existing economic structures.
vilifiend	Date: December 25, 2008 @ 5:11 PM simon hit the nail on the head. my adds: reality is indifferent and is as good as nothing. reality is a created and agreed on concept between the individual and the people in their lives. nothing is 1, nothing is zero. nothing is something, something is nothing. all the grey area is up to your path, your own perceptions, and the culture you partake in or help build. to me, i think ultimate perception of reality is something resembling the eyes of total psychosis, only if you can look on without changing forms. holding the focus of a hologram. we are all illusions, and physical space is indifferent. free and yet enslaved. of course, the more you focus on shit like that, the more isolated and in pain you may feel. i make a lot of songs about that. its not exactly material that makes friends.

mudshadow	Date: December 25, 2008 @ 8:33 PM Right about now, I bet your asking yourself "Why oh why didn't I take the blue pill?"

evansorchid	Date: December 27, 2008 @ 9:34 AM I don't believe in reality.
zedsalt	Date: December 27, 2008 @ 9:47 AM Reality can be a lot of fun, enjoyed briefly, taken in small doses, but one must be careful to not let it become a habit. And it's NOT for kids. And it should NEVER be imposed on anyone without their consent.* Occasional recreational use by mentally and emotionally stable adults is essentially harmless. *- I realize that I break this rule on a right regular basis, but doggone it, it frustrates me when "facts" that are contrary to truth and reason become part of what is considered "common knowledge".

farfor44	Date: January 10, 2009 @ 12:33 PM Ooops! Sorry Simon,actually I'd forgotten about commenting here so I wasn't trying to ignore you intentionally.. anyway about "Das Energi"by Paul Williams an underground best seller originally published by Elektra Records 1973 (the first and only book they ever published). In 1978 warner books published it because of so many copies being sold by Elektra... short book 149 pages,very esoterical in nature..Basic premise is that we are all a part of one Energy,and consciousness as soon as we are ready to adopt that perception..quotes"We are on the verge of the new age, a whole new world. Human consciousness,our mutual awareness, is going to make a quantum leap. Everything will change, you will never be the same.All this will happen just as soon as you're ready".. A vision of the new world we already live in,if we can only remember who we are! if you can find the book now~happy reading! one more"politics of experience" by RD Lang...highly recommended!
