how to access a non static member from a static method in java?

Question

I have a situation where i have to access a non static member from inside a static method. I can access it with new instance, but current state will be lost as non static me

Answer 1

A non static member variable "is state". It's the state of a specific instance of that class.

When you say you want to access a non-static member variable, it's as good as saying "want to access a non-static member variable of a specific instance of class XXX", I mean the bolded part is implicit.

So it doesn't make sense to say "I can access it with new instance".
