Indifference is not our true nature. All intelligent creatures move toward pleasure and away from pain. The intelligence that the universe is, seems to run that way. Humans do feel pain in the moment, we are feeling beings. It is all about sensation in the moment. However, because humans can imagine past and future, they can forget that life is only ever happening now. Life is only felt (sensation) now. I am not saying there is not going to be pain, feelings and sensations are real but passing, changing.
Then there is suffering, the unnesessary mind made suffering that can be eliminated, it is this that i have been refering to. It is possible to remove the fears and desires that haunt us and be free of mind made suffering.

Perhaps intelligent energy proceeds to learn what it is by maintaining a reference of what it is not. One thing it is not is still. Another thing it is not is negativity. It is not negative because intelligent energy is progressive. Energy can neither be created or destroyed, so you know that there is no such thing as its destruction, there is also no such thing as its creation, as it always has been. For intelligent energy, stillness means knowing. So there was a point in the beginning when all was assumed to be known or perhaps all was known, but intelligent energy is able to learn so it does thus continuing the process, maybe in a cyclical manner.
The reference is just a catalyst for progression so that there is a point A and a point B. That reference was comlete knowledge, but for intelligent energy, knowledge means stillness, and true stillness doesn't exist. Therefore the reference doesn't exist and imperfection perceived by observing 'negativity' doesn't truly exist more than just the knowledge of it existing which in itself will fail against the background of the animate endless progression of intelligent kinetic energy. I'm not sure if any of this will make sense.

That makes perfect sense, although I have a point to make about stillness. It sure is sought a lot and gets talked about much more for something that doesn't exist. I perceive that it actually does exist, it is simply the nature of it's being to be non-existent because of what it is.
However, like you mention, it is observable and is perhaps a very important factor concerning all that exists in order to stop and observe itself. If there was nothing but pure energy, what would there be to spread itself across, break itself across in infinite pieces and intricate details? Countless observable details.
there is what is and there is what isn't, but both are.
there is the energy but there is the void- nothing... and you will never see it or experience it but you must be aware it is there and you certainly will when it's all you have and you will know that it exists and is a critical component in everything that is, ever was or ever will be.edit on 22-8-2011 by BlackSatinDancer because: (no reason given)

Even as you remain perfectly still, you are actually moving at about 67000 miles per hour around the sun, so you aren't really as still as you think you are. Even in the subjective experience of stillness, you are still moving, and it is that movement that is being observed in meditation. It is desirable because you are participating in and observing the primal movement without engaging in your own thought process. This energy is purer than the adulterated perturbed perception of your own activity. If that makes sense.
However, like you mention, it is observable and is perhaps a very important factor concerning all that exists in order to stop and observe itself.

Outside of intelligent energy, there is intelligent infinity.
there is what is and there is what isn't, but both are.
True, but I can't help but perceive that only one of them really 'is'. lol.

I created my signature at an underdevloped period in my understanding, but I think that there are some things about it that hold true with my current understanding. Although, there are also some things that I would manipulate a little bit to fit in with my new understanding.

of course intelligent energy it is but to energy that is perhaps measurably less intelligent, it is an infinite void.
but yes, we are sort of talking about the same thing I think.
a bunch of nothing... but yeah, there it is!
Another thought, pure energy takes no measurable amount of time to travel without the concept of space if all is pure energy, but space supposedly does not exist either... it is only a calculation, but there it is.
If pure energy just wants to be pure, all encompassing intelligent energy all by itself because nothing else exists technically then the only reason that space and time and anything else for that matter exist is to measure other things that don't exist? no.
Space itself is nothing, it is one of these void factors. So if these factors are non existent, there is no need to measure anything... because there is no space in between in reality... only perceived space, because it is relative.... but there it is.
I maintain that the void itself is a very real entity whether or not it has any perceivable characteristics. It is real, somehow in a very non existent way, it exists. It has left it's signature on everything that is. All is not one. There are two. The two are one because they coexist but they are separate, they are different. The two, in ways, are one, come together as one, dictate for all beneath them how, where and in what way they are one but they are very very different.edit on 22-8-2011 by BlackSatinDancer because: (no reason given)edit on 22-8-2011 by BlackSatinDancer because: (no reason given)

Intelligence is the CAPACITY for knowledge. So even something that doesn't know anything can be intelligent but as the intelligent energy progressses, it will know things. Energy is the ability for something to do work. Intelligent energy is the ability to do intelligent work. Intelligent work means learning and working. There is no energy that does not have the capacity to learn in some form. I've got to go, I'll reply to the rest of this when I have time.

You originally said that everything is perfect until it is changed, just letting you know.
This thread has not yet addressed why change is so apparent, and how there is a natural desire to understand the arrangement.
There is a major confliction with what is and what appears to be. This is why the scientific method works on the basis of constantly updating and adjusting what you already think you know.
Everyone gets obssessed about whats possible, which encourages the ability to find out. But arriving to a conclusion full of ambiguous suppositions results in a large variety of interpretations and loose definitions.

I have been recently thinking about this that you are mentioning.
The fact that energy is not lost, merely transformed can be a scary thought and a reassuring thought, but it makes you wonder if positive changes are really changes and not merely band aids that hide a problem... a deep problem with life itself that can't be improved, can really only be recycled.
Could there be a possibility that through learning and experience that all energies, regardless of direction or flow became intelligent and peaceful?
That would mean changing nature itself because nature is a brutal beast with sharp fangs that rips itself apart but it is also an innocent baby kitten. If you can transform energy and you can coexist with a lion if you respect his habitat and teach him and understand what he is, then why can't volatile chaotic energy be understood to the ultimate degree?

That might be the point of energy, but not of intelligent energy. Please read this link:
www.abovetopsecret.com...
Intelligent energy is eternally progressive. Even in the wake of destruction, information can be left behind that gives the opportunity for the newly arising intelligent forms to be more intelligent than the previous inhabiting complex forms of intelligent energy. You get an ever-increasing complexity of intelligent forms adapting to an ever-icreasing degree of information that builds off of previous information so that the learning process is effective and efficient.
Could there be a possibility that through learning and experience that all energies, regardless of direction or flow became intelligent and peaceful?
Everything is always intelligent and always has been. A rock is intelligent. However, in the form of a rock, its efficiency in and its degree of ability of getting intelligent work done is very very small. But the nature of that rock's configuration is a viable platform for increasing in molding its form into a more complex and adaptive structure so that it can be more effective in getting more intelligent work done.
Peace means how well you align yourself to the purpose of what you are which is intelligent energy.
That would mean changing nature itself because nature is a brutal beast with sharp fangs that rips itself apart but it is also an innocent baby kitten. If you can transform energy and you can coexist with a lion if you respect his habitat and teach him and understand what he is, then why can't volatile chaotic energy be understood to the ultimate degree?
Understanding the volatile, chaotic tendencies of energy will give you and understanding as to why nature is perfect. For intelligent energy, bad things that happen are an appropriate catalyst for learning.
For intelligent energy, destruction means interrupting the progress of intelligent energy, or diminishing intelligent energy or potential intelligent energy.
The way of the world is survival of the fittest, and also the survival of the most intelligent. We are at the top of the food chain, not because we have the sharpest teeth, or the strongest muscles, but because we are the most intelligent. When food is consumed by a being, it is a lesser being being consumed by a greater being. For the perpetuation of intelligent energy by eating food, the reward is made greater than the loss so that intelligent energy is able to be effective in continuing its purpose efficiently. In that context, killing to eat food isn't really destruction at all, it is perpetuation. Intelligent energy gains more than it loses.
Please please please read that link as it will possibly answer a lot of questions that at this point in humanities understanding have been unanswered.

I will attempt to better understand your new ideas in the other threads, in the case with this thread i see it was posted prematurely. Just keep in mind, alot of times, ideas presumably true are much more likely to receive.support when they have vague propositions. It is much easier to find agreement on a premise that is very broad because there is less specificity to be skeptical about.
