krsna Posted July 25, 2009 Report Share Posted July 25, 2009 What ought one to say then as each hardship comes? I was practicing for this, I was training for this. -- Epictetus (55-135 AD) Greek Philosopher Tests will inevitably come in KC. The biggest test is the moment of death. Chant Hare Krsna maha-mantra and pray for the guru's spiritual power of tolerance to bear all trials and tribulations in the course of one's devotional life.

bhaktajan Posted July 28, 2009 Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 Extreme fatigue brings a state of euphoria ---when you rest your body upon the bedstead, No? Extreme loss leaves a person free of all obligations --- an unwelcomed state of euphoria, No? Extreme loss leaves a person without care --- this is the basis of a state of euphoria, No? Extreme helplessness leaves a person to surrender to sublime care from others --- this iis the basis of a state of euphoria, No? Extreme comfort and ease leaves a person without desires --- this is the basis of a state of euphoria, No? Extreme preparation leaves a person without anxiety --- this is the basis of a state of euphoria, No? Extreme vehicular highway traffic leaves a person with a perfect exuse for being late ---this is the basis of a blamelessness, --- this is the basis of a state of time to relax and follow the flow, No? Our minds do not allow us time-off to smell the flowers. When the rent is due --smelling flowers will not provide the free-time to relax. The path of being free must be felt with practice ---all other times-of-the-day are given-over to societal obligations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
