Rottie to the Rescue...

One night a family's pet Rottweiler started barking to be let out in the middle of the night. A rather grumpy owner got out of bed and let him out, shutting the door firmly behind him.

Snuggling back into bed with his partner, the dog soon started barking outside as well. The man got up, opened the window and told the dog to be quiet.

The dog obediently went quiet, but soon started barking again. Again, the man got out of bed, opened the window and told the dog to shut up.

Drifting off to sleep comfortably snuggled under the quilt, the family were awoken once more by the urgent ringing of the doorbell. Someone wouldn't would not lay off that wretched bell.

The man grouchily goes down stairs tying his dressing gown around himself as he went. It's 3am in the bloody morning. His sleep has been disturbed four times. He opens the door...and finds the Rottweiler standing on his hind legs, leaning on the door bell with his front paws.

At this point the man realises their dog has been trying to tell them something all along: the roof of the house is ablaze. He wakes his family and gets them out safely just before the roof comes crashing down.

Now tell me dogs can't think, can't reason, can't problem solve...and don't have a soul. laugh

Hey Cheavy, only the other day a carrot flummoxed me with the theory of relativity. dunno

I felt obliged to braise it with saffron and cumin just to show it who's boss. It wasn't such a smarty pants then, eh? snooty
Dead weight, live weight? A rigid structure is easier to lift with our bodies. Unless rigimortice sets in, dead weight is bulky. It takes different musles to lift.
Try this one. A womans child gets chrushed under a car. The woman lifts the car off of the child.
I do not know the answer to the pressing down on a person, or thing. But I know it works, because I have done it.
I think that one changes the field around the body???
I want to grow saffron. It is supposed to grow great here.
How each of views life and death might touch on some very personal an poignant emotions and I'm not sure it's terribly kind to ridicule that.
I swear I was not attacking anybody personally and nor I was ridiculous. Whatever I stated was based upon the experiences I gained by meditation.
And you sound like a good cook?
say Iot. have you been able to leave your body? "guestion"
Oooh, I so physically flinched reading the child under the car thing. Lifting the car is something to do with adrenaline and rage isn't it? That super strength thing is lifting external weight, rather than changing weight, isn't it?

So, how does that relate to the 'soul', or 'life' within someone?

Oh, I like the twists and turns of this conversation and the convolutions in my mind. laugh
Can you describe those experiences you've had from meditation, iotaoo?
Hey. you tell us??????I have not got a clue. Other than, Mind transends space.
cheavy....type in,,,,does the human body lose weight when it dies,,,,,,and read,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
CH. i GOING TO LOOK UP THAT BOOK.

Jac it fun
I am off .sleep sleep walk good every one.
Talking of the mind transcending space, I read somewhere recently about the possibility that the mind is not necessarily contained with the brain as commonly thought, but may extend beyond the physical body.

Is that what you mean?
cant my computers batt went down. darn
Yes, it has been fun Fly. Thanks for the laughs and for dropping by. Nos da. wave
well ,,when your batteries are up then,,,,,,
What did you find, Nam?
Check more sourses nam
it loses maybe,,at the most,,a couple of ounces,,,,basically remaining the same weight,,,,which sends cheavies theory of becoming heavier right out the window,,,(i already knew this,,wanted to find for him to see for himself)
I may have had that experience already, iotaoo, but I still might not conceptualise in terms of the word 'soul'. Anything translated into a word might not have the same meaning, or the same experience attached to it as it goes from one person to another.

Even any wordless experience might not be exactly shared.

I agree..the phraseology may well be different...one can call it "soul" and the other may say "spirit"...a scientist can prefer a word like "X" or "alfa"...but I insist the meaning derived by the experience is the same...to repeat.."THE ETERNAL TRUTH HAS NO PERSONAL ALLEGIANCE"
Again I agree with you that...Even any wordless experience might not be exactly shared...but wanna add that essence can be nearly made felt.
the scale cannot lie,,,,,these are facts,,,,not my beliefs
As you know, every thing is made of molicules. They are held together by fields. I believe it is how the fields are munipulated.
The fields are picered all of the time. Light, for example, that we cannot see passes through us all of the time.
And what is light? Energy, and made if of molicules. It transends us. and we transend it. We also reflect it. That is how I see you in the past....at the speed of light.
A couple of ounces is a couple of ounces, Nam.

Where do those ounces go?

How much does life weigh?

(And I think it was me who was talking about bodies appearing heavier when dead, or unconscious, but Cheavy said they get lighter in reality.)
C'mon then, Iotaoo, tell us about the 'eternal truth' and your meditation experiences. Although I'm guessing it might be difficult to put into words.
I am so sorry. I thought that ounces were a form of weight. Grams also. Micro grams also. I stand corrected.laugh rolling on the floor laughing laugh
Light is made of molecules? You sure about that, Cheavy? confused
Yes. They are called: photons
@cheavy
say Iot. have you been able to leave your body? "guestion"

Yes...and you can have the same experience...and you can't appreciate without experiencing yourself..
that is how lazers are made. and you can take the molicules off of a structure, and cut metal with it. How cool is that?
But I have. Once. Scared me.
Aaah, okay. A generic kind of use of the word molecules?
When you say 'leave your body' do you mean like astral projection and going visiting places?
Yes. But I only made it to where I could see myself meditateing. And went back.
Can you describe those experiences you've had from meditation, iotaoo?
First I would like to thank you for I take your question to be inspirational.
Yes I shall create a blog describing the minutest details whatever I experienced through meditation.
As I recall, when I left my body, I remember the sinsation of weight? What about you Adu.
What scared you about it, Cheavy?
Sorry Iot. Good blog, My mind is in hiper drive.
Good stuff, Iotaoo. I look forward to reading that. handshake
Why don't you leave your body and tell me how you feel about it.
Which just states that the sprit has thought
I can not wait for his blog. open open open
