Guest guest Posted April 17, 2002 Report Share Posted April 17, 2002 Hi Dan, Is bliss relaxation? Or, am I, again, missing the point - That there is no point? Not pointless, But no point No words No silence, even Yes, silence, not there, because Silence can't squeeze in - Just doesn't fit. It's too big, Too noisy, And a little clumsy. But Ahh... to relax - And there I go again! Seeking. But relaxation - Is that partying too - Because it's not purposelessness? Hmmm.... Never mind. Sometimes, I think I have a question, but the next moment, it just seems so silly. Hmmm... Maybe, I'm thinking too much - do you think? :-) Help - MaryEllen.

Guest guest Posted April 18, 2002 Report Share Posted April 18, 2002 Hi MaryEllen, > Is bliss relaxation? What if you're at work, typing up a report that's due in an hour? Blissful relaxation will just interfere. Doing what needs to be done ... And not doing what doesn't need to be done ... What's that called? Openness to/as what is. The bliss/relaxation is the openness itself, not an experience. > Or, am I, again, missing the point - > That there is no point? There is no point, and that no point is infinite points. > Not pointless, > But no point Quite so! > No words > No silence, even > Yes, silence, not there, because > Silence can't squeeze in - > Just doesn't fit. > It's too big, > Too noisy, > And a little clumsy. Okay. :-) > But Ahh... to relax - > And there I go again! Seeking. > But relaxation - > Is that partying too - > Because it's not purposelessness? Yes. The original openness has never been disturbed. It doesn't need to be reclaimed. You don't even relax into it, because it's already fully open, and you seemingly appear within it -- yet it has no " within " ... As you said, no point, and not pointless, so nothing within or without ... > Hmmm.... > Never mind. > Sometimes, I think I have a question, but the next moment, it just > seems so silly. Hmmm... > Maybe, I'm thinking too much - do you think? :-) No, I don't think so :-) You only seem to be thinking, when you think there's a knower who can know that it's thinking :-) The knower is just another thought. And thought can't catch itself, can't really know that it's being thunk! Nothing to know, no knower, just open ... >Help - Reminds me of Andy Kaufman singing " Here I come to save the day, Mighty Mouse is on his way! " Afraid he can't help much now, though! :-) Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 19, 2002 Report Share Posted April 19, 2002 Hi Dan, Thank you for you response. Just at that moment I was going through a bad time. Down for the count regarding sex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
