Guest guest Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 ....there is often a tendency to judge the words... as if they were not only pointers...but the real thing itself... this misunderstanding is part of what is pointed at as ignorance... darkness...blindness...and so on...if we are not quick to stick with the judging sword...we might even come to see that they are nothing really...mere drops falling from the sky... this is an art in itself and seldom seen around this place... (now this is from watching...not from judging)... and I can see why its easy to mix them up... so when I say I know myself...there is the judging sword allready swinging...trying to hit me...but they will ever only swing at for the words.. not me... one can even say that one can never know oneself...and it is also nothing...mere drops...no need for the sword of correction... what I am pointing at is this: if only instead of swinging with the movement of the sword... one could stay absolutely apart from that movement... in natural stillness...(and dont go with the words here) ....one should both know ones Self and not know it at the same time... no word is more true or more false when it comes to describe the real ....they all fail... because they are mere drops moving " away " from the sky...(ones true Self)... now some drops are in a way knowingly blessed with the wisdom of the sky...and others are blessed without... know there is nothing won by going for the swinging sword... only a moment of identifying with the warlord... ....iietsa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 dang.. and i thought 'LOL' was a anagram. what 'word' dictionary do you use? picture words for boys and girls? that's probably deep enough for you. most folks draw baths deeper than that but.. that's cute. ha ha haaaaaaaa ha ha haaaaaaaa! ..b b.b.
