Guest guest Posted July 9, 2006 Report Share Posted July 9, 2006 I was in India for about 3 weeks. I met many people. Did some work. Attended few functions. Even had few arguments - some very heated, some minor. Had some episode of hot tamper and some very touching moments. Three things that I did notice however was that: A. I had little or no occurrence of 'sense of self'. B. I had NO " spiritual " thoughts. Few times I sat alone, sat on the computer but, did not feel like either reading anything spiritual nor like writing anything related to that matter. My energy seemed fully focused on person-to-person human relationships and on creative growth in material sense. C. I had no 'sense of suffering'. My acceptance to what is seemed natural, automatic and choice-less and it seemed as if I was internally ok with every result. This was when at level of " things " I did have events that can be seen as causing suffering. I didn't know whether this sense of no suffering was due to having lot of money [for the context in which I was living in], for not having any real work, for having very little idle time [my " work " has lot of 'idle' time], being in contacts of people most of the time or because of not having any real goal and plan. I don't know why but, it was as if I was naturally living in a " surrendered " , 'self less' way... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you would have NOT posted this then I would have believed what you wrote. Next chance NOT to post will arrive Werner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
