Do you have a reason to say "sorry" to the monkey? . . . And you say you'd like to take the monkey out for hot coffee and bananas. . .

What do you tell girls who ask you if you want a blow job? Do you apologize to them and then ask them out for hot coffee and bananas? What would be the relevant reply in this instance?

Then what would be the relevant reply to the monkey?

Here´s a new try from me. I realized that the answer should be simple, and this is the most simple answer I could think of.

The monkey is lying, he is bullshitting the boy. How could he possibly know how the laws of causation will play out.

That´s my try: The monkey is lying, I shoot him.

^That's part of the process.
Haha thanks. Honestly I've been thinking about this for days now whenever I've some private time. I started logically but then had to see dozens of pages that rejected all logic. Turns out the monkey doesn't lie either...it is still a question however whether he is telling the truth.

I don't even think about what these monkey, father, mother etc. can represent because that too hasn't yet led to a correct answer as I can see it. What I'm trying to do is just imagine that I'm the boy and thinking about what the hell would I do in his situation. If I listen to my guts it tells me that I'd start asking the monkey questions. Starting with "Why?" But these too are just attempts to understand the situation which is obviously not the solution.

The thing is... there IS an answer from Kasabi staring you right in the face.

It's so obvious, that maybe you missed it. Sometimes, things really are just plain ass simple... Simple, simple, simple.

This one is simple.

You could also try to PM Zac L for his take on this, he was the one posting it in the first place.

Its funny cause every time i come up with a solution, i always end up realizing that i still haven't put my ego away, or that I'm assuming things, or doing the things i shouldn't be doing just to figure out the solution.

I think this story is more about recognizing all of that, and learning to be able to set aside all those factors, i.e recognize that I'm getting frustrated and learn how to set aside those kinds of emotions in order to see whats really happening.

Probably the biggest thing stopping me from figuring this out is the fact that I'm frustrated at the fact that I'm pretty sure there is no answer. But then again, I'm assuming that there is no answer ahahahah

You say that you assume that there is not an answer to this story. Do you mean, not an answer at all, or not a right answer?

Be prepared for 8 hours of explanation.

I realised to myself... I didnt care enough. If you really care this much about an answer. PM him

i don't think there's such a thing as a right answer, i'm not even sure there is a question to be answered here, we just assume there's one....

Kasabi. Im back. You are right I did give up. Because I want this enlightenment people who claim to solve it are talking of.

I just tried to meditate on this riddle for the first time in my life.

The riddle is of a boy. Not ME. I have been personifying it. Because of my ego I suppose. The boy is told to THINK, there was no real question.

He thinks about death etc... he then decides. did he shoot or not? We dont know what he decided. So why are we even answering it for ourselves????

This isnt my answer... Im just trying to work through my thinking process.
