/lit/ - Literature

It is your dreadful fear of being a pseud and midwit that reveals you to be one in reality.

the highest value that can be found in a novel, or in anything else, is aesthetic. anything else is not only tangential, but tainting or diluting.

especially when writing and poetry is posted here and sometimes italics make a world of difference.

being with the wrong person in a fully commited relationship is a road to hell. but every road leads to hell eventually. i cant speak for everyone but friends are better for my lonliness. and creative endevours are incredibly fulfilling.

>I often go to bed and fantasize about not waking up, or about a world ending event or about becoming an animal.

ive stopped stopping myself from imagining doing things differently. sometimes suicide is a fun thought too, not that i want to. lifes just too short to not fantasize. i dont even care if it gets me down

dont hate you but dont appreciate the tripfaggotry. i dont know why someone would post like that. i dislike non fiction discussions too, even the ones im involved in so you being opinionated on "the hard problem of consciousness" without really understanding it doesnt help. we both like björk

youre in kindred company here. the only way to live any life is truly to let go of hope and stop caring. but even when you dont, know youre not alone. no one is enjoying this ride. weve been led to believe enjoyment is the point and is possible, but if you let go of that youll enjoy it more ironically. being an indian is hard, but being an indian's slave is harder, iykwim.

they keep the machine going by having the vocal minorities on either side be radical and repulsive (wich theyre bound to be) so that everyone is polarized. friction between the sides can be used for movement or distraction or whatever they want. its all a hegelian seesaw or whatever
>>18362589
i wasnt big on it either
>>18363055
based comfy anon. cozy up all the way for the rest of us. order foor. watch a movie. treat yourself
>>18363126
the majority of people are like this but they trick themselves into thinking they can do relationships, marriages and kids because of normativity, romanticism and naivety. then they live out hell and force others into it along them
>>18363568
i hope being awake is enough of a relief. and i hope this whole thing ends up being a sleep paralysis nightmare that we wake from.

give more examples

by way of meditation, i will erase myself

Any books on how whatevers responsible for reason/logic/causality couldnt have been reasonable/logical and couldnt have caused it?

Bonus points if you've actually read it and can explain the main points

whatever gave rise to reason had to have had no reason to do so.

there is a thing that gives rise to things (or at least a thing, reason) without reason.

it is the ultimate god we can -reasonably, heheh- know of, and it is blind (without reason)

Are there any more books like "easy journeys to other planest", which focus on outta-body-.experiences from a traditional.- not-new-age point of view?

Is there any school of buddhism compatible with the scientific theory of multiple/parallel universes?
if so, please post about it,I want to make this connection.
