Guest guest Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 A human being claiming realization is like a shadow claimingenlightenment..before the sum (sun) wipes it out. toombaru L.E: First of all, the sun does not wipe out shadows, it intensifies them, and the shadows move to new positions as the sun moves. A shadow and the sun are unified in their relationship. Yes, it is a no no to claim or mention that you are enlightened. If you do, that means you are not enlightened, so if you want to prove to others that you are not enlightened just tell them you are enlightened. Or you can tell it as a secret like, " don't tell anyone that I am the son of god " as it is written Jesus did. Or you can get others to tell people, like a publicist or book publisher. Or you can just spread your wisdom out until, inevitably, someone will say the magic words, " You must be enlightened. " And you can say as did Jesus, " you said it, not I. " Anyhow, it's just a label and irrelevant. Just be kind and help people and do good, and let the labels take care of themselves. Besides if you are enlightened you probably say it to yourself, and that's two of you right there. Larry Epston Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
