How does one experience Heaven?

Does the universe** intend** to correspond with the mind? Or is it a coincidence?

It is inevitable.

How can one realize the fact of existence without a mind?

Evolution applies to everything in reality, so as cognitive reason evolves, the realization of existence forms. The Neanderthals were another erect primate of Earth history, and evidence shows that they knew types of healing, because we found bandaged bones. But remember, the Neanderthals are not human ancestors, just another species. With this in mind, this was much like humans development, and then it would eventually lead into realizing that we exist.

Do you believe physical reality is the sole reality?

Yes, but I am open to another reality of non existence that we will one day ‘experience.’ Reality is based on the interpreter, where physical reality is the house for “sub-realities.” And let me clarify on sub-realities. They are personal realities, and personal can either be the same to all, or different, with some agreements, or no agreement.

I agree that you can “sometimes” be anything you want.

Don’t let anyone ever tell you otherwise. Dreams allow us to be anything, so does imagination.

“why” <> “how”!

Think of any drawing, letting, word, or sentence, etc. Each corresponds to something reality. Sunset, tree, types of animals, sun, moon, these are all words that represent something. All language does is allow us to put these words with an image in our heads, allow us to understand what is being said.

Beauty is anything from the large UNIverse, right down to the smallest parts that make up existence.

Nonsequitur; you can never experience non-existence.

Nope, there is only one reality. Different persons (or cognitive beings, if they are not human) experience different bits of reality, depending upon their place and time, their embodiments, senses, emotional systems and intellect. But there is no personal reality. Our playing pieces all come out of the same box, even if we land on different squares.

The non-existence thing reminds me of yet another joke:

Rene Descartes was sitting in a bar near closing time; the barkeep asks him “if he wanted one for the road.”

Good old Descartes answered: “I think not”

and suddenly goes POOF!!!


God Bless and ICXC NIKA!

We will ‘experience’ what everything else in nature experiences, because our bodies will decompose back into the matter from which it was built upon.

You are just describing conscious vs non conscious experiences. This is where “if the bear poops in the woods, who would know?” It just happens. We will one day become part of these, so live in heaven now my friend. “For it is: the love you withhold is the pain you hold within.”

And then the bartender would continue to look at him in utter hysteria.

Because Descartes thinks our perspectives is a soul or spirit of some kind, able to dematerialize and re-materialize.

And then the bartender would cut him off…

… Sorry, I had to

How do you know the mind does not exist without the brain? Is there conclusive evidence?

Edit:

Our minds interpret reality through the brain from senses. If all of our senses are in fine tune and equal, we will all have the same physical interpretations. When our senses become altered, we create different interpretations. Away from one Reality

Why?

There is a vast difference between dreams and reality.

Do you mean that without words we can’t understand anything? Aren’t you ever unable to express a thought or feeling because words are inadequate?
