[QUOTE="JayJay, post: 70646, member: 147"] Although, you can take yourself both perspectives to be truth in their own way, but just in regards to reducing your own suffering, or as I mentioned earlier, I see it that way. The most dangerous thing about life is that everything composes itself based on previous causes and conditions. This cumulative effect is very dangerous because it means that if there are not loops of referential consciousness that act like a mirror to your own life (therapist, journaling, ...), this means that you are living like a robot, and when you are living unconsciously, the potential for damage is greater. Knowing that determinism is real doesn't reduce my suffering by itself. Everything is scripted after all, and thus this conversation. But for others it can reduce attachment to results and guilt about the past. Though, it produces a me a new gained responsibility to cultivate good causes and conditions that alleviate my suffering, even if all of this was already scripted, and my natural tendencies were that of taking care of myself, I guess there is no other option for me than take advantage of this instead of living in complete unconscious darkness. Perhaps it is a "win-loss". [/QUOTE]
