Billy brotherrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr big hugs to you!!!! tons of kisses...I feel at home

here in this forum where people show their love and respect and good sens of

humour!. As you said, my spiritual practices sometimes may be different from

the rest of the members, but this doesn´t trully matter. I feel deeply that we

are all trying to do our best in wich ever path we have chosen to walk, working

within ourselves to unfold our true nature, either with hinduism, christianity,

buddhism or whatever spiritual tradition is chosen.If spirituality doesn´t

unite us as human beings and on the contrary divides us and create hate, anger

or duality, then it its not whorthy to enter the spiritual path or then, it is

because we are totally misunderstanding the teachings given by our own

particular paths.Spirituality for me is about realising who we are not and who

we are, its about openess towards myself and towards the rest of my fellows

brothers and sisters of the world.Its about love, kindness, compassion,

friendship, help...its about letting go of the ego system, that wich divides

us, its about watching and observing how the ego system works and how it tries

to trap us in what we are not, creating divisions and wars inside ourselfs and

between people.I am in this forum because I love Ganesha. I don´t

particularily feel Hindu, nor Christian, but I think I connect with Jesus´s

teachings aswell. I have decided to choose the buddhist path as a way to

achieve enlightenment because buddhism is beneficial for me, but I also know

that enlightenment can be achieved with other paths. Creating wars due to being

in a different spiritual path or having different ideas only shows you that

those who fight are attached to their path, their teachings, their views, and

attachements are no good because they will keep you caught by the neck with no

freedom. A path is a finger pointing at the moon, a raft taking you on the

other side, but once there you have to let go of all that. If not, heaviness on

your legs, big black metal balls as the prisoners of Alcatraz.If someone is not

respecting you in a forum, well probably its because you represent the side of

themselves that they are not respecting. You act for those people as a mirror

where they can reflect those inner problems they have. Don´t blame them, I know

you don´t do so, and don´t feel sad either. Its the only thing they could come

up with, and that is their own level of understanding at this moment in time. I

am sure they will improve this in the future.As Jesus did when someone kick him,

give them the other cheek. This for me doesn´t mean to become a martyr, but it

means not to react to the theater play or game someone is performing in front

of you. Awareness and non compulsive reaction to an atack is a good basis to

start cultivating inner wisdom and compassion.Tons of loveBarbara
