]]> Comment on Encouraging Treating Farm Animals Humanely by Sondra http://dananourie.com/virtualliving/2010/06/encouraging-treating-farm-animals-humanely/comment-page-1/#comment-320 Sondra Sat, 19 Jun 2010 17:06:00 +0000 http://dananourie.com/virtualliving/?p=625#comment-320 You forgot one of the MOST important videos ... "Meet Your Meat". Below are the links for part 1 and part 2. Be warned, it's probably the most horrific film you'll ever see in your lifetime, but it's life changing. Imagine it's you being treated that way ... or your child ... or your spouse ... or your parents. After watching the film, you'll have no shame about (1) spreading the word that we need more humane solutions, (2) asking your grocers to supply Certified Humane meats, and (3) refusing to shop at stores that refuse to carry Certified Humane products. The alternative is to turn your head and pretend it doesn't exist. Each day that we continue to pretend, hundreds of thousands of animals are cruelly and needlessly tortured. I forced myself to watch the entire film, because I knew I needed to know what was happening. By choosing commercially available meats, I was also responsible for what was happening to these animals. Please force yourself to watch the entire film, even if you need to take several breaks like I did. The images will drive you to relentlessly fight for change. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mKR36WaLVNo&feature=PlayList&p=9082F1564314C2DB&playnext_from=PL&playnext=1&index=1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELP-k8Rt-7I&feature=PlayList&p=9082F1564314C2DB&playnext_from=PL&playnext=1&index=2 You forgot one of the MOST important videos … “Meet Your Meat”.

]]> Comment on Virtual Worlds Are Real by graeme mackie http://dananourie.com/virtualliving/2009/07/virtual-worlds-are-real/comment-page-1/#comment-282 graeme mackie Sat, 05 Jun 2010 21:58:28 +0000 http://dananourie.com/virtualliving/?p=361#comment-282 An absolutely fascinating discussion, verging on existentialism. In the context of the non-dualist view, the "In Person" reality - the human form - and even the world as perceived through our form, are themselves an illusion, created by the mind. The mind cannot comprehend the ultimate truth - that the universe, and us are actually consciousness - and therefore creates an the illusion of relativity, separateness, you, me, us, them etc (think I've got that right). So, and back to the point, since In Person reality is not as real as we like to think, whose to say that SL reality is any less "real". In some senses, one could argue that since we are aware that it is actually a representation of reality, we need not be trapped by it's illusory nature, in the same way we are by In Person reality. In other words, we needn't become attached to our SL reality, and hence can rock more easily, and have more mojo (as it were!) Do reply please, cos this is a great thread to play with.
