disagree. wait a minute. do you mean direct ot indirect perception?

like cause leads to effect?

in other words are you saying: intention leads to action? if so, you can have my job as moderator, because that DEFINITELY isn't the case.

i miss the correlation. because carrying out one's life (beyond the biological of it) isn't that simple of a task. that's why this discussion exists.

worship or serve? or is service worship (i'll give you that one)

of course not. which is why all that "physics" business above gives me pause. upon first reading it really sounded like gibberish (sorry, not disrespect intended). upon further reading it began to make sense in a very broad way, but it doesn't (at least the part addressed) get at how one is to maintain on a daily.

theory is good, but without practicality the question is how good?

>Is anybody getting me?

trying to.
