john and erin,
Erin quoted john as saying:
> the
> world and I are 'not two', and so to discriminate between 'mine' and
> 'yours' and the world is just an error.
then she said:
> ERIN: I see how the separateness may be an error but still not clear how
> this shows uniqueness is an error
Erin, i dont understand how you can admit that separateness is an error but
not uniqueness? is not uniqueness just an aspect of seperateness? the
actions of the mind are to distinguish and to identify (unify). mine and
yours are not illusions because we begin with two unique things and
identify them with eachother, unifying them under some broader definition
or world model, they are illusions because the intial act of distinguishing
was an error. Because uniqueness is a result of first distinguishing, when
one does not distinguish there can not be said to be uniqueness. Words
fail this because they are results of the actions of the mind and connot
there for describe a mind that does not act.
