Namaste.Hi.,
Re-opening this thread??
A is the only thing in the universe and to experience that universe, you should be that A because you are that A!
The above is a declaration of a newbie scientist. Now, he has cleverly connected all logical fallacy in to a simple paradoxical statement like the one above so that, you cannot question his verdict. Here is why it is paradoxical
1. You must become that A to know you are actually that A
2. Anything else that is not A does not exist including you - really.
3. Anything else that is not real, can not give you idea of real - So, A alone can give you the experience
4. You are that A anyways - But you do not have experience of A because you are in between point 2 and 3 - The paradox knot that will never leave you
5. Since A is the only one, there is no experience and only experienced alone remain - the Sat! What is Experienced is also temporary however divine that is.
6. Since A is always in that experience, now we are in a cyclic confusion - Where did anything else came from and going through and on what substratum
7. Oh no, A is the only Being....so there is no Becoming - of anything else to A
8. No you should not ask any question on the pt 7 - if A is the only Being, why am i not A - Immediate answer is, No you Are that. But , no i am not that - because i have different experience NOW! No you are that, but now you are neither that nor something else! Another Paradox.
U know what, this bullets can be extended to infinity - all will be answered with paradoxes in between and not sure if that is called scientific and rational! Rationality requires support of a Fact - that fact cannot come from unreal sources - they must be real and here the only fact that is real is A itself! So, A is A - no further proof required! Thats the only rationality left and this situation and position is called, WASTE OF TIME!
Hare Krshna!
What's the problem with paradoxes? And who calls them paradoxes and by what standard this judgement is made?
