APAD: I think, therefore I am (Cogito, Ergo Sum)

楼主 (文学峸)

Meaning: That I am able to wonder whether I exist, proves that I do exist. (by

René Descartes)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

The proof seems sufficient but not necessary. I still am even when I'm not

thinking.

 

In fact, what we often do is OVER-thinking, a modern pandemic (according to

Eckhart Tolle).

 

One story impressed me years ago with a remark that kids in India were taught

meditation to counter mental stress and anxiety (read fear-driven repetitive

over-thinking) in their quest, in a fierce competition, for academic excellence

and a better future.

这就是著名的 —— “我思,故我在。”

你是对的。我又在胡乱联想了。7G估计又被我气坏了。哈哈。

(I am who I am)好像这一句谮越的话,不是人人都能说的。记得好耶酥当年因为这句话被犹太人定了罪!

是的,这话不能随便乱说。。我,我就是引用一下。:)

I couldn't find where Jesus said "I am who I am."

But God did say to Moses in Exodus "I am who I am."

No worries. If stuck, we just follow up with another joke:-)

哈哈,谢谢你。有时候随便扫一眼,很容易闹乌龙。

Thanks. Great to know :-)

Right. One of his crime is “claiming to be the Messiah”
方外居士
这个也是谮越

Sure. They can’t accept it.
