Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evolving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way

Thanks for the response. I agree with you. It seems that it is more important for people to start questioning things, whether they are real or not. That is step 1 in the awakening process.
Yeah. Philosophically, I have been arguing that Truth and Reality are two seperate things. Truth is the sum total of everything that factually exists in the universe. Reality is the perception of this world in our mind.
Truth is unknowable because its like the numbers in the matrix screen. Numbers dont mean anything until you interpret it in your mind and form your reality.
The more of the Truth that is taken into account in building your reality, the more "real" you reality is. Hence "Truth will set us free".
But ultimately, any single human brain, or the entire collective brains of humanity, can only perceive an rough approximation of the truth as the collective reality.
