If tomorrow were today what would you do....?

:-k People always want to go in the past to change there mistakes. But what if you had all the tools for tomorrow, today. What if... What if you had all the answers today. Would that help you or hurt you?

Funny you should ask that, because your signature has my answer...

Life is learning...

If you already know all the answers, you remove any chance there is of having a real life...Sure, life is hard, and shit seems impossible, but it makes our lives monumental successes and or failures...And part of which makes us very alive...

With all the answers you would have no need to talk to friends for advice...Nobody would want to talk to you ultimately, there's not thing to discuss with someone who already has the answers...

I like to think that I made mistakes in my life, but that I made them to learn from them...I love the fact that I can look back, see something that I should have done diferently, and then take the hard road to repair what was broken...

It would hurt you beyond all recognition to have all the answers...

i agree with ty on this one. if you knew that you were dying tomorrow, would you honestly live it to the fullest? or would you spend your last breath in paranoia..thinking of everything that could possibly be done to prevent the inevitable? most of us would fall victim to the latter, and not just in the case of death- but even in seemingly good cases..you†™ ¢‚¬„¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¢†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¡¢‚¬Å¡‚¬†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¾¢‚¬Å¡‚¢d spend your day searching the sidewalk for the twenty you knew you were going to find..rather than scanning the faces of the friends passing you by. we're not meant to know the answers before we learn the questions.

well knowing all the answers will only destroy what ever sense of adventure life is all about and losing that will not only make life boring and well it just wont be the same ..............mistakes of the past is what shape our future as well everyone has established life is a learning

The question was to see how people looking for the greater truth and posutive things in life jump to the negative so quick and easily. There is no right or wrong answer. It will only question your thought process. Please excuse me I am fucked up so I might rambele a little.... The question has no good or bad, no right and wrong because it balances its self out. I didn't set a day or time. I never said that the person has always had that ability. That one key detail left out led people to assume. The only wrong answer, Asssumption...

many of these are charming sentiments... but not ones I share.

I do know the truth, or rather The Truth. And no one's head is big enough to contain it. Therefore, it can not just exist in your mind.

And the Truth could not really be accessed the way you speak of, the focus of the individual has to be so great, no one else really even exists in the perceptions of the person. The only time you can be exposed to the Inevitable Truth, you are in ccomplete stasis, a state achievable only by meditation, or seperating yourself from the Corruptible matter of existence.

And the Truth will have audience with you, if you merit it. But, in the PRESENSE of that sheer beauty, you would be an ass if the only thing you could think about is "when am I going to die." More than anything, you are left with a KNOWLEDGE that TRUTH surpasses life as we know it, and often tears.

If a person went around completely "online" with the Truth, they would barely be able to function, much less live like this is their last day, or whatever. The owner of this forum can prolly attest that I should know this for real.

However, your integrity, knowing your own momentum in the universe, and adhering to it. this is a crucible, by which the Alchemical first matter arises in the persona of the individual,.. and is the path of Initiation. More than anything, most people are concerned with this.

I was concerned with Truth, beyond friends, loved ones, family, success, wealth, reputation, legality, in all things strive to be true. I wanted to be in its constant presence.

The Truth above all Else; that was my creed.

The problem, is that it really takes people (much like Jesus's disciples, I hypothesize) to "snap" you out of that bliss so you can really only do anything with it. I had such a group of people, called the Ouranos collective. Yes, the Greek word for Heaven.

For years, I could and DID tell my fellow colleagues who acted as controls in my experiments everything they asked me. The end result was severe,.. so bad that I lost everyone dear to me, who asked of me... Some them of them may never recover their trust and love for me. Because, when you have the foresight to tell others what happens to them, even when and how they will die, there is this imperceptible but nagging suspicion in their hearts that you have control over it... and you become blamed for all that they find ill in their lives, and are powerless to stop it, and they are literally driven mad. Many times the only options is that of fundamental religion or complete denial of any non-physical existence... either way, you you are out of the picture.

That is why the Ancients say, and with wisdom,

To Thy Own Self Be True.

Now, in my wise years, I instead elect to let the Truth make of itself a gift to me, in its own time, and by consent.

In the case you planted seeker, you'll be knowing the projection of present or the real truth of what's gonna happen tomorrow.

If is the first one, you'll get some advantage and with a smart use you can acomplish lots of bourgeois aims, but after a while you'll stop living the present skipping your attention to what is unknown to you i mean you'll start wondering what's gonna happen the day after tomorrow, and i think that will lead to isolation.
And if you know what's going to happen inevitably the worst thing i can think of is not that no matter what i do i can‚´t change destiny but that i'll be just a pawn sentence to move from grid to grid performing a play that other choose for me.
