It's so weird, people are talking about other things, things that happened to them, my friend is talking, my parents. And it's all imagined... Like non-existent. Gone. Now they're just talking about issues that are imagined up in their head. Amazing. Weird. |

Indeed it is ... like they're living in a dream, yes?
A dream made of concepts and concepts about concepts, by and for concepts and their concepts.
"Enlightenment" isn't amazing at all, compared to that ..... and all enlightenment is, is not doing that.
Maybe not as interesting to the "thought-called me" ... but there is all this peace, happiness, clarity, fun, genuine loving, and what-not, which kinda more than makes up for it.
Anything not now is only a thought now.
As you've noticed.
Wholeheartedly,
Kirtanman

This is a gem, from the thick of realization, I never thought I would see such clarity in writing,yea, and perhaps I never will! |
