Important announcement/Comment / Harsha

[Guest guest]

Frankly Ivan-Ji, you are a breath of fresh air. Your comments and insights

are penetrating and deeply honest. I am very grateful to you for saying it

as you see it. It truly gives me great joy and puts a smile on my face.

Sharing honestly and directly with mutual respect and good humor is the best

we can expect from each other.

 

With lots of love and hugs

Harsha

Thank you, Sri Harsha-ji for your kind words and encouragement, and

for recommending Greg to peruse my paper. I hope Gloria will get back

on line soon.

 

Regarding my search for a "perfect language": Ever since I remember I

have been interested in words, language and communication, probably

as means to obtain (unconditional?) love. I always wanted to

understand (and love?) everybody, and to be understood (and loved?)

by everybody. That's why I always try to adapt my way of talking to

the person I am talking to, and try to understand the real meaning

behind his/her words... - I suppose just like you and many other

people...

 

It always makes me rather sad, and often quite angry, that at 54 I am

still being misunderstood a lot, and I still don't understand all

people's "language" and thought... Very frustrating.

 

However, I still (foolishly?) keep trying, and hoping that maybe one

day I will get it right, or maybe stop being so anxious about getting

it right. Participation in these Advaita groups taught me a lot about

this - and I am still learning new things about myself and others

every day.

 

Thanks for being part of it all.

 

Namaste,

 

Ivan.
