Time for tougher questions: 1. How is it possible that we exist? 2. What is it that exists? 3. What are we supposed to do? 4. Why do we want stuff? 5. Why do we want to be happy? 6. Why is there suffering? 1. The question is misconceived. 2. What can only be imagined. 3. See 1. 4. Why does a cloud form? 5. See 4. 6. It's The School of Hard Knocks. My answer to these questions: we created everything! The 'creator' is not the body/mind, which is one of the creations.

Mind-ing replies: 1) Are trees and stones extensions of the source as well? How is it possible that source exists? 2) How do you know? What is your experience of the source? 3) How do you flow energy? What is energy? Can't the source do this without getting us involved? 4) In what way does it matter? Why does the source need this to matter? 5) Why can't we just stay in our natural state of being? How did we get out of the natural state? 6) Where did the beliefs come from? Why were they imposed on us? Who kicked us out of alignment? Okay, let's give it a try (still A-H framework): 1) Yes. Thought can't go back to the beginning of thought. 2) 3) Energy flow follows your focus/attention. Energy is vibration. No. 4) The story about flowing is similar to the Niz story about seeing; the flower and the flowed is similar to the seer and the seen. There is no need involved. 5) It's a perceptual thing. Nothing is actually broken or in need of fixing. 6) Beliefs are just thoughts you keep thinking (momentum/habit). There is no assertion. No one, it's just a misconception/misidentification.

3) What is vibration? Consciousness pulsing.

What is all the stuff that is seen and experienced? That's a fave. I like one of the science answers: probability clouds.

Consciousness pulsing. Burrow into that pulsing a bit more and I bet you won't find anything. Actually, you will always find something. There's no end to that kind of mental exploration. Such is the nature of the infinite.
