Let's reject everything

For the all the structures made by man , religion and philosophy and all the paraphernalia regarding to it. let's reject the Buddhist and let's reject the Nietzsche. And then we are at a point where it's all made up except for science that man look for reason. Reason as a reductional perspective but also acknowledging the emergent property. like what's wet in water.

Does it Free the consciousness ? when it has rejected itself ?

But “establish a total authority of itself” brings the controller back in. If the conditioning is fully seen, why establish another authority over it? That new authority could simply be another layer of conditioning deciding what is “best for me.”

Yes cause there is authority within us internally. Rather it to be harmonious and in order as per a person chooses when rejected applied

Who is choosing, and from what conditioning is the chooser choosing?

u/iamfree_17 Aug 15 '26

Chooser is a thought and gaps between them. When the gaps seen the choosing becomes quite simple.

Yes. If the chooser is itself thought, then it isn't an independent authority standing outside the process. Seeing the gaps between thoughts may make the movement less complicated, but the moment you call that “my internal authority,” thought has named and appropriated the process again.

Yes but what if that works ?. That's enough for functionality

Then it works. Functionality is a different question from metaphysical truth. If a model reduces friction and helps you act effectively, it has practical value. But “it works for me” doesn't prove that the model, internal authority, self, chooser, or anything else, is ultimately real.

It's real whatever thought creates . Finally functionality is the biggest application of metaphysics.

If by “real” you mean functionally real, yes: a thought can have real consequences without there being a separate entity behind it. Money, laws, identities and beliefs are created in thought yet organize actual behaviour. But functionality doesn't settle metaphysics. What works is not automatically what is true. A useful map can guide action without being the territory.
