Fools love to be fooled, and gurus, those peddlers of >good news, reap the profits. ) I wonder whom you are talking about and what this has to do with our enquiry. I have no beliefs, I accept everything and I know that I will die. ... acceptance is a good thing if somebody can use his intelligence. But there are some steps that have to be taken first. Otherwise one is left with only confusion and will never find a way to live a real and full life. About personal death. You seem to be very much concerned. Look at it in a different way. There are so many people who are seeking personal death... there are so many forms of suicide. Do you really think people generally wish to live forever? Where are you living? Obviously in a cosy nest. Personal death cannot be cheated. But we are here in a Nisargadatta group and you still have not understood that it is exactly this illusion of a " living person " that makes us looking like fools. Do you know what it means to be ready to die? This I call " acceptance " . Where do you want to reach with your diverse " philosophies " ? Come, answer my questions, talk to me and prove that you are willing to learn something for your life! Greetings S. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
