      New here too!

      Hi everyone, This is "my" first post and "I" thought it appropriate to introduce my "self", whatever that means. I guess I tend to think of the self as something that is not by any means solid or permanent, but rather something that is, that Which it is, only at this exact moment. The self seems to me, to be influenced by past experiences yet is only limited by our own narrow-mindedness and ignorance. We are all prey to ignorance in one form or another and the exciting thing is that there is Infinite Light which can slowly but surely, with much effort, get rid of the light of ignorance. That is of course only my observation of how things work in this existence. So now that I've confused myself, my name is John Christopher Brooks, "Elkie" will work just fine, and I live in CT, USA and I like many things including run-on sentences and Far East spirituality. It's nice to be here with you all. I hope to learn many things from you.

      Cheers,
      Elkie

      Right, so is there a way to change my name on this thing. I'm computer unskilled.

      We are glad to have you here buddy. I think it would be best for you to start a new thread in this forum yourself so more people can notice you. We all want you to teach and learn from us. It is nice to have you here. You have some interesting ideas on existence. I recommend checking out the philosophy forum in the off-topic section. You may find those posts interesting.

      To change your name you can PM Seeker and he will do that for you.

      Best regards,

      Yume

      It is split into a topic all it's own

      Anyway, welcome to DV, Elkie! If you have any questions feel free to ask! That's what we're here for.

      Sweet lucid dreams!
