Guest guest Posted March 8, 2001 Report Share Posted March 8, 2001 So what does a man consider enlightened? To face his fears and not be afraid? I hear alot from....but from what I hear, I hear spoiled children...that never go hungry or without....those that have nothing better to do than think of what they think ! Is that not spoiled as spoiled can be...I hear no pain...I hear no suffering...only what "I" feel or "I see "or "I think"....is this enlightenment? are we all just a bunch of kids getting our "Way"?... at what cost ? this so called civilized society gains what at what expense? I hear alot of repetition of words & sayings that bring their own meaning to each individual...is that what life is? To make our own meaning & witness unto ourselves the value of everything? Lets all just sit and sing "joy to the world" .....maybe I'm being narcisstic or however you put it.....but the world is getting very tired of man's bullshit & his own look on things....when we will all wake up and see the beauty & truth of it all....or is there any real beauty or truth to it....Hey...im not trying to rock the boat...but its being rocked whether you like it or not....just sit with your peace while the world comes crashing down around you and see how peaceful you really are!.....ever been in an earth quake? a flood? any disaster? ....think what you like...have you ever gone hungry? Have you ever endured death, not your own? have you seen little children suffer for no cause of their own? We are such a proud enlightened bunch....it makes me sick at times to call myself a part of it....but I Am...and as long as I Am I will speak my way.....sorry if i offend or bring up things that aren't so damn nice.....Bless you all....but will any us know the true Blessings when there given to us?
