Sree:   What are you, really? Pull the plug out and you disappear.

Guess if you don’t believe in physical reality you might be able to imagine that Sree.

But pull the plug on me and there will be a pile of something on that floor.  That something that matters to the biosphere as it moves through time.

That something will then decompose and reenter the web of life and evolution,  Although throughout my life, molecules and cells have been migrating into and out of my body.  Hell one of those cells even helped create a wonderful human being.  But you might say that’s not me.   Well, that lump will have had family and friends, an interesting life that interacted with many people, and in some small (some big) ways it had influenced outcomes beyond itself, personally, spiritually, materially, all that remains and echoes forward.  Though it too will fad with time, right back into the material evolutionary soup from which it came.

Can you follow any of that Sree.

You remind me of those childhood days when we could close our eyes and imagine nothing exists beyond ME.  And yes it is true at some point we need to make that Leap Of Faith, namely that we are not that special, we are not god, we are part of something much bigger than me, myself, or I.  We are part of a material reality, hell we are the product of it and embedded within it.

You on the other hand seem to want to cling to some belief that nothing exists outside of your own mind, it’s all relative to ME, seems your guiding light.

Furthermore, I believe that when you say God you are actually referring to your Ego and faith in yourself.
