I think this forum is a great resource, but as with any resource of this type, it is my experience that it is very important to always remember that all the teachings and discussions herein are still basically a lot of “fingers pointing to the moon”, not the moon itself. To get too caught up in discussions can lead to the formation of more concepts and perceptions, thereby stirring up an already agitated mind. As such, I have also found it very beneficial to remember, as Papaji so aptly put it, to “Be Quiet”! Abiding in the silence can be the greatest teacher of all...

Absolutely agreed.

This is a discussion forum, and so, here .... we discuss stuff.

However, this can be a catalyst for silence .... or for concepts.

Likewise, discussions here can arise from concepts .... or from silence.

Thanks for this post ..... great reminder ..... or de-minder ........

Wholeheartedly,

Kirtanman
