Good Evening, Friend! To your question, yes -- disinterest in symptoms of samadhi. __/\__ LoveAlways Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good Evening, Friends! We just recently watched Memoirs of a Geisha, rented for about $3 US, but the cinematography was priceless. Even so, the original text captures the beauty of the tale in a language more exquisite than any film could hope to portray, imo, and so good writing is also priceless. Even the comparative mind itself is priceless. Without it, we would not be able to navigate very well. When Ramakrishna first granted Vivekananda the Divine Vision, Vivekananda was unable to function in the objective world. He saw, felt, tasted, smelled, heard, and touched only the Divine, and consequently asked that his master withdraw the vision after a couple of days, since he realized he was unprepared to deal with it. There is a price we pay if we want the truth, although the truth itself is priceless, and can't be bought or sold. Most of us resist the cost, and so remain dishonest with ourselves and others, disguised behind carefully-applied white powders and charcoals, just like geisha, performing our fantasy roles in much the same way. At any rate, it seems no cats were harmed during the making of this film (though there were some pretty tense cat fights between the Geishas). __/\__ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
