Crazy Horse Posted March 24 #1 Share Posted March 24 Everything that has a beginning, must also have an end. And this Spiritual Path is no different. I have always tried to share any insights that have been gleaned, (given) along the way.. And so I will clumsily try to explain the "end game". Silence.. Nothing more to say, think, believe, hope for, expect, or desire. Just, the present moment, to enjoy. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thoughts? Sounds kinda boring since I enjoy saying, thinking, believing, hoping, expecting, and desiring. Whatever works for you though. 2 1 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy Horse Posted March 24 Author #7 Share Posted March 24 2 minutes ago, Dejarma said: what if the present moment isn't enjoyable? Its a good question. I guess it depends upon ones perspective? I mean, the thing that might make it bad, is ones "skin" in the game, so to speak. So if one is already surrendered to the will of GOD, then, literally, all's good. One is simply in the moment, every occurrence is a message from GOD, a challenge, an opportunity, a moment in time where one may awaken. In other words, for one who knows love, there is no bad, "present moment". 1 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is REAL silence. cormac Well that's one perspective. Personally, speaking as an illusory, non-being, I would say, that, all comes from mind, from consciousness, and therefore, the physical body will "go" before the mental, and spiritual bodies/planes are reunited, with, THAT. Silence doesn't mean inaction. It means being open to life, and expressing ones emotions, and feelings. Which, as was just explained to my Essex friend, is always a joyous occasion.

Crazy Horse Posted March 24 Author #14 Share Posted March 24 The good news being.. That GOD is pure love. That GOD is absolute mercy. And, that in actual fact, you are THAT, anyway. So where's the actual problem, here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An excerpt from MacBeth Act 5, Scene 5 says it best IMO: Quote Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player That struts and frets his hour upon the stage, And then is heard no more. It is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing. The only real meaning to life is the meaning we, individually, give it sans all the pseudo-religious and pseudo-psychological claptrap quite often dispersed here at UM and elsewhere and often by those who couldn’t find a way out of a wet paper bag with even as little as a flashlight and a pocketknife. cormac 3 1 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You say, the only real meaning to life, is the meaning we give it.. To which I agree with, (to a point..) Anyway, you then go on to belittle folk who, (in your words) say, without the pseudo-religious and pseudo-psychological claptrap.. So what you've just said is, that, everybody can have a voice, so long as its the same as mine, and that everything else is "claptrap". Don't you see the sheer hypocrisy in your present, point of view? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have constantly said, that each man may hold fast to their beliefs, but, that to be a man, one must also take responsibility for their actions.
