x = anything.
0 = nothing.
You cannot analyze or define a thing by nothing.

What is not a one? Nothing.
You = a one
Nothing = what one is not = what is any one is not = what you are not
Therefore,
YOU CAN NEVER ANALYZE A THING BY WHAT YOU ARE NOT.

probably you also would like to add that the Nothing can not be judged by Something, similarly Something can not be judged by Nothing according to ur theory.... philosophically the Self transceds Nothing and Something, All inclusive and Non inclusive, may be beyond all the laws, probably also a Nothing which can not be scrutable by Something.... but if with ur theory Self can distinguish since it is Nothing also ... If the Self is Nothing, how come there is something...? the way out is probably Everthing is Self only, distinguishable and non distingiushable, distinct and non distinct, nothing and something, not only this and not any of these and this only... beyond comprehension and yet within comprehension ... beyond the laws, yet within laws ... that's why probably the Time immemmorial Vedas after all those ponderings in the end said "Nethi, Nethi"

Best of luck for ur invariantology

I guess you have never had to sit on a jury or raise a child for someone else.

You can imitate anyone you want and in doing so take on their logic and behavior.

You are fixated on the concept of self. Get over it and accept the fact that if you dropped off th face of this planet tomorrow, someone else would take your place, do your job, take care of your family and so on. The world does not center around one being unless that being is a God.

Your possibilities are limitless. You have free will in a destiny tat you help to shape. Stop wasting time with rhetorical arguments and try making a go at expanding yourself. You would be amazed what you are capable of learning if you just give it a try.

I understand you, because often I too am like you, when I spend so much of my time thinking that if only I can analyze my life well, I would be able to find why isn't there any joy or fun in it.

But then suddenly it came to me that perhaps the only reason for its absence is my over analysis itself. So instead of having fun with life while living it, I am intellectualizing it so much that I miss out on all the fun in life. It is like instead of loving people I judge them first and as they say you can either love people or judge them, never both.

That is when I drop the mind and be my Self. That is my daily practise now is to be my self and have fun while being my self, what better blessing can one ask for?!

Well.....the power of analyzing each and everything is, if you take it in practical way that is, depends upon the ability one possesses.....I live with the waves of maximum optimism... so naturaly I would always like to go and analyze a thing....without judging its merit or outcome.....but only for the betterment... a thing should not be analyze if the consequences are to mould in destructive manner.

in contrary, it is that which human doing for centuries...do you think modern human is that which had been designed originally? As a perfection? Far from it...that means that HE IS NOT...as minimum not yet....So great effort had been done by human to distinguish a thing, understand a thing, describe a thing and analyze a thing while he is not...just pretending that HE IS.....still fully confused of who he really are...

Definitely you can my dear.....distinguishing a thing...? Just a matter of insight...Understanding a thing...? need to have a lil; information...,plus your experience.Describing a thing...?Just giving an idea of you percieved the thing you need to describe.Analyzing a thing...?Its just determining the nature...,form of the thing analyzed...


Its not necessarily by who you are not that you can't analyze...,.distinguished..,understands and described a thing.....its more on commonsense....intuition...discernment and your perception....

Man, how many of these questions can you ask? Day after day, obscurely-worded quasi-philosophical questions that never go anywhere or lead to anything. Are you running some kind of Dadaist campaign against reason?

Yes you can, if not we wll be nothing, we try to and not to be certain things in life cause we admired them or dispaise them ether way, we dont have to be something specific to analyze it.
