>>16643456>Most of what you said makes no sense, I never asked to be born and you don't understand how bad this life is.Exactly. Try to think of you earliest memory from childhood. Now try to think of a time before you were born. That is death. Nothing to truly fear.
The christian world view is just stories made up to try & control you. The truth is no one asked to be born into this world it is all just simply happening.
I was trying to get you more interested in exploring the nature of your own mind & consciousness.
You can't even choose the things you desire they simply appear in consciousness.
Can you think a thought before it appears in consciousness?
There was an interesting experiment where people were give two button to press. One in left hand, one in right. A clock was placed in front of the person. They are told to note when they decide which button they will push.
Their head was hooked up to a machine reading brain waves. The computer could predict, (can't remember exactly) which button they would press before they pressed it.
If you pay close enough attention to experience itself. Stary with breathing meditation. You will notice thoughts simply appearing & then disappearing all on their own.
Free Will - Sam Harris, short book which has a lot more clarity on the matter than I can provide. Please do read it before you do anything drastic.
You can't think a thought before it appears in consciousness, it simply arises itself & disappears by itself. Rest as pure awareness.
