@Ethereal_dot_exe <--Yeah, theoretically...everything's relative. "Pain" refers to a degree of intensity of sensation that you're not prepared to "eat" upon contact. The moment you shrink from the pain, it HURTS! Until then, it's a very interesting experience of intense sensation--and if you can eat it, it gets even more interesting! But, it IS REAL, if the word "real" is to have practical meaning! In one form or another, pain has anchored every physical experience you're ever had to the sea bed of your evolving BEING, allowing you to FEEL that you EXIST. Without sensation, you have the classic "sensory deprivation" experience, which is surreal. Pain keys you into the reality you occupy. It provides perpetual feedback on your state and position in time and space. It's been said that the intensity of pain can be great enough to cause death by (medical) shock. So, "illusion" is a description of pain I have to disagree with...

home dreams<--Curiously, I received an email citing your response to my comment. However, the link in the email did not take me to your reply, as is usual. And I can't find your reply in this message forum?! Weird. Your reply was, "Does it come easy to ya?", to which I'd like to comment. "Easy" is what habit does for you: it frees your attention for more deliberate focus. But, "easy", as an internalized authority, leads only to "lazy". I figure if it's easy to accomplish deliberately, it's probably useless. Without the challenge, there's not opportunity for growth/development (like gym workouts instantiate a 48-hour biochemical switch-over that amps the whole system for efficient utilization of effort in the development of musculature). I look for maximum difficulty by searching for the BEGINNING of my knowledge--which points DIRECTLY to my ignorance. That's the guy that's gotta grow, as it does, out of ignorance, into knowledge! It's like peering into the darkness, looking to find the barest glimmer of light. So, like anything else, I suppose, the difficult becomes easy with practice, revealing a potential further level of difficulty. The trick is a psychic turn of mind/emotion where you EMBRACE the challenge, instead of shrink from it. Can you DESIRE the difficulty of the challenge, realizing the great value of engagement in it, or must you HATE it, in an emotional rejection of the prospect of "pain" that it promises?!
I've come a long way on this path for over 50 years, now. I'm aware of the fact that I cannot say what I do from my own perspective, because the perspective, as it's developed, would be necessarily unrelatable. So, I try to...translate into colloquial speech...but that doesn't work too well, either. I find the best way is with questions designed to elicit pertinent natural responses in the listener...responses which lead directly to the listener figuring it out himself. After all this practice, I'm left in a place where I cannot speak without being misunderstood...hehehe...and I LOVE IT!
