Guest guest Posted April 29, 2002 Report Share Posted April 29, 2002 Judi,Elizabeth, Marriage,love(as it is generally considered) etc is essentially a social contract where you try to negotiate commitments, aspirations, stability and sex. It is a false-security mechanism of the " grasping mind " that belives that a long-term relationship will cause things to fall in place.. It is only the socially-aneimic that seek respite in socially-conditioned(socially-constrained? ) institutions such as marriage. True love ,happiness and bliss are here and now.So, why bother about long-term,commitments etc.Events will transpire as they are supposed to , each event being it's own cause.Do what gives you happiness NOW and leave the rest to Divine Will. I speak with this resolve because it wasn't long ago that I was grappling, trying to integrate my fear of rejection , commitments w.r.t this girl whom I was/am sweet on. After I was blessed with this way of looking at things , I feel strangely liberated and totally peaceful.Now, there is no wanting.Everything just happens! I just am! Realize that it is the mind that seeks a marriage,long-term love etc.The heart tells you what happiness is , moment-to-mment.Listen to the heart, closing your inner ears to the mind (the schemer) and all will be fine!

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2002 Report Share Posted April 29, 2002 An emotional reaction to a person, place or thing can be a very healing process, if I allow myself to feel the emotion, instead of blaming it on something outside my self or seeking a " reason " for the way I feel, " analysis leads to paralysis " . I have learned this the hard way, many, many times. When the energy is pulsating in my gut and I feel like I am about to explode from the inside out, I have learned that the best thing for me to do, is " relax " , the body. Once the body relaxes, the mind will follow suit. Trying to quieten the mind only creates resistance and more energy that requires silencing. Eventually, I " see " that I have created my own heaven and my own hell on earth. Living from the heart, from perceptions instead of the head, conceptions will bring me to what and where it is I have been seeking, Silence. Reading words on a computer screen should not upset anyone, should it? But it does! Why? Because I take it personal. I get involved. What's the Answer? Don't take anything personal. :-) Easier said than done sometimes. Love, Michael At 03:46 PM 4/29/2002, you wrote: fucking true!

Guest guest Posted May 30, 2002 Report Share Posted May 30, 2002 I lite to taked things elfinal, always.. that ways ya never get hurt or sorely, ya just do a fast sparrow walk and had a bit of a bite of rhubarb and raspberry, sweet and sour chinese styles samidges and then eveything are seen in elfonal .. The difference between takin sunthing personally and sunthing elfinally are fron the elfinal perspective evey single action are haddin its beginnins in love always. Then when you can seed the source of the actions was love but it just got messed up when it passed through the brains. Mmmm.. The elfinol perspectives also are - any resistances causes pains and sores and cramps and burps and farts, so you accept all things as been the only ways they canned beed at that tines.. Mmmm Mmmm and you love it all.. you just love it all very shtrongly.. yes but a fast sparrow walk and a bite of rhubarb and raspberry chinese style samidges are just the thing to get started in elfinol,, just lite Johns says.. too many juicy greens cause the squirts so you must had a balance of banana boffins and then the dancer and the dance become one An emotional reaction to a person, place or thingcan be a very healing process, if I allow myselfto feel the emotion, instead of blaming it on somethingoutside my self or seeking a "reason" for the way Ifeel, "analysis leads to paralysis".
