Success You are nothing more than an archetype, thus you are nothing. You have existed countless times in this life.

In the end all patterns repeat themselves, all human archetypes and symbolims repeat themselves because they are influenced by biological phenomena and the agreggates of experience, feelings, emotions, and knowledge. No one has ever existed per se, what exists are the mental creations that they have made of themselves, an unique combination of biological phenomena and the previously named aggregates. That's why maybe we are all unique in some sense. The lie and the illusion that we all tell ourselves is that this human archetype is permanent, but we are not noticing how all of the previously named things are influencing the creation of new archetypes within our lives. We all live them and experience them until we break our attachment to them by realizing our true nature: nothingness.

Each of the consequent identities derived from the experiences traversed by this archetype derive in a set of needs and attachments to things and people. The ego arises in its clinging and asks: “Then what am I, what am I, what do I do?". Nothing. There has never been a need to do anything in particular, nor to be anything in particular. That is the illusion to be broken, that we are the attachments, the needs, and the desires; we are not that because we are not anything in particular. The truth is that we don't need to be anything or do anything in particular to be happy and complete. Remember your true nature: none. In one identity you cling to this, and in another you cling to some patterns of thought. Thoughts come and go—come and go to convince you that you are this and that and therefore you have these needs and these attachments. You are nothing, simple realization and consequently disappearance of needs and attachments.

It's possible you have exited countless times in space-time; other humans who possibly shared the same aggregates and biological phenomena ended up thinking in the same way as you think. Behave exactly the same, and everything you want to think about.

That's when I asked myself the question: "What am I then?". I told myself: "You are simply nothing! Stop clinging to all these identities". There is nowhere to go, there is nothing to do, there is nothing to be, there is nothing to nothing.

That's all, nothing.

Yeah. I sometimes wonder whether the beliefs and thoughts that I have, as well as my overall self-identity are entirely endemic to myself. This is a reply I made to an older thread which kind of touches on this.

While on paper, all individuals are biologically 'unique', people (some to a lesser degree than others), tend to fall into the same archetypes or tropes that have persisted since the beginning of humanity, almost manufactured off assembly lines... I don't think one can be entirely original.

If I am really 'nothing', a character that has been repeated many times previously before, I guess I can only view myself as a vessel of experience; while I'm alive, I'm an observer of life and this reality through the senses.

Curiously, while reading this comment I felt my ego hurt because I thought you were gonna disagree with me. Clearly, I'm egocentric yet.

Back to the point. Yeah, I guess we can see ourselves as a empty box that receives things, and based on that we produce our typical emotional, feeling and thinking patterns associated to the present archetype. There is nothing wrong with this, the point is just being aware when this box starts producing detrimental things based on the input. Some sort of function where its domain is the set of all phenomena, and the output is the set of all feelings, thoughts, and sensations.

Maybe, this "vessel of experience" is what is considered the soul under christian theology.

I don't want to impose my beliefs onto others but from a scientific perspective, there's more than this third and fourth dimensional plane experience after one self's death (not from the observer perspective, which could perfectly be the unknown energy in the hidden plane that arises after self-awareness beyond the quantic level) and the cosmos (God) has laid out everything in such a perfect way where we can achieve self-awareness individually, and this is something not exclusive to humans alone. This is all but mere speculations but logically everything will converge onto one truth but most things point out to what I'm explaining (Stephen Hawking calls this a holographic universe, but I do believe there's more than this and so for hierarchical reasons, we can't grasp what belies beyond this 3D space, because the unknown is overlaying in our reality and ancient civilizations knew this, and so did Jesus).

I'd like to hear out your thoughts as well, but humans most certainly do have a function like most familiar ecosystems in this illusionary veil. And I am starting to believe every single being shares the same function: synthesizing into something else beyond this third dimensional spectre (more than an unseen particle I would say, and that could perfectly be the "soul" in all living beings, even other living forms that have arisen beyond this planet).

And time loops could be easily explained with these metaphors and "mere" mythical stories we've stumbled upon all the way (Buddhists call this reincarnation, while Christian belief is based upon "As Above, so Below" with the purgatory being your life). If you can't converge your ego with your inner Self (your soul), you'll have to go through this countless times but we all gain this self-awareness either conscious or subconsciously. I repeat, not humans only do but also cats and birds and so forth. It's so beautiful, but I might be short of words to describe how perfect this cosmical symphony is, and naturally fear goes somehow go away when you gain self awareness through your life (although your body will still feel fear, sadness and joy naturally).

Is it intelligent design? Steohen Hawking said once thing while Tesla said another, and so did Buddha and a wise man like Jesus. After all there is not a set belief path (even from a scientific perspective) but all converges onto one single truth. I cannot explain it with words but everyone will go through this. Maybe I shouldn't force you for self-introspection, but knowing yourself is certainly the best way to redeem yourself from this painful illusionary experience.

I wish all the best to all you guys, because we're all in this together although in different paths, but we'll all meet in the peak of the mountain regardless of the transcourse of time (again, the 4D not only being arbitrary properties but also an instrument beyond human comprehension).

Rehab Room once said don't take life this seriously. After all, this is teamwork (through a collective consciousness perspective if you will). Survival instincts are also instruments to lead the animal collective for self-introspection, which could lead to the final synthesis (you can take life as the sharpening of a sword as a smith). Just do what you like the most, don't engage in things you hate and leave the hatred behind. Know yourself, and help others.

Be a passerby. And know the spirit of Father that belies within you (You and You).
