  As I've said many times and many ways: a mystic may not believe reality is anything but what the

  mind of man convinces him of--but--the mystic always enters and leaves the room through the door and NOT the WALL!

  As long as the mind is the sole arbitrator of “reality”, there is only the “room”, a seemingly door-less one.

  The “mystic” (or whatever) simply sees the always open portal, lets go and falls in (yet, from the view of others, everything remains pretty much the same).

  Seems like we're back at the Analogy of the Cave. Wouldn't it be nice to strip naked, run outside and get some sun?

  Do you know the mathematical improbability, that the energy it required to create the total mass of the universe from the state of physical non-existence, to the expanse we are aware of today, came about naturally?

  The total energy in the universe is precisely zero. Read Lawrence Krauss.

  I have already experienced a knowledge beyond human thinking?

  Of course you have.

  Terry - "Looking for Truth with a capital 'T'?"

  Nope.

  I'll happily settle for empirical facts and well-reasoned arguments, thank you very much.
