By understanding and living those words, by giving them full expression, you`ll find far more than plain fun. Your cup will spill with gratitude ..

Nope. Hope not. However for $49.99 plus applicable taxes and shipping, you can have a slick new distillation of Niz's words set to a Rap Beat that is sure to thrill and enlighten.The visuals are fantastic, amusing, and fun..fun..fun.

Does anybody know where humor, lightheartedness, or just plain fun of Nissargadatta's teaching is to be found? He stresses the utter importance of earnestness, of complete seriousness. Enlightenment is very serious business and anyone caught having fun will have their knuckles wrapped and their behinds switched! Just my thinking but: when the new Rooting of Consciousness is realised...a far surer Home than ever was the old individualistic rooting of the personal ego, lost in insoluble conceptual chaos (so 'they' say)........might not that old way of looking at things and relations and people and play..might not that old worldview appear funny? And weird? And misguided? And most certainly NOT to be taken too seriously? Now let's share the candies and ice? ...bob > > > > If you do not wish to receive individual emails, to > > > > change your subscription, sign in with your ID > > > > and go to Edit My Groups: > > > > > > > > /mygroups?edit=1 > > > > > > > > Under the Message Delivery option, choose " No Email " > > > > for the Nisargadatta group and click on Save Changes. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about " don't try to find anything in words... there is nothing there " do you not understand? Is it that distilled eloquence you read as mere games with words? Whether your experience of this list is as with a bunch of " playing little gurus " depends on you. While it could be that, it could also be so very far from that. Those who see games as what's being played tend to find themselves as also playing. If you don't want to experience this as game-playing, then seek to the deeper meaning in those messages that merit it. The potential for something very rich *is* here... if you are open.

" -That is something I can relate to, but not by reading or posting messages that merely massages our egos. Rest of reply appears as learned wisdom to me, like most other messages in this group.
