that would drive away almost any newbie from all-things-Nisargadatta, is a sad

lurking here for two or three days, and there's nothing much going on here but

banter. The place sort of shut down for the weekend too, which is often a sign

that people are just using it for a diversion Monday to Friday at work.

the Pope, but in reality, all that's left out of the 1300+ folks who signed up

here are spiritually ratty squatters shitting on the good name of Nisargadatta

by being insane on purpose instead of wise, loving, caring, etc.

Let people have their fun. Don't be thinking that just cuz a place calls itself

a Nisargadatta forum that that's what it actually is. But do you know of a place

where there *is* an interested group of internet forum people talking about

Nisargadatta and what he taught? I'd really like to be a part of it if it

exists. I've come up with this place:

forum was in March or April this year or something. (Interestingly, the

Adyashanti forum is buzzing, as is the Tolle forum, and just about any other

forum whose teacher is still walking the planet. I guess people like a teacher

they can *touch* lol.

" one " " owns " a life?

 

well i guess there comes a time to sell it off huh?

 

who's gonna buy it though?

 

and what would " one " do with the proceeds(if any) of the sale anyway?

 

maybe it's smarter for " one " to just " rent " a life.

 

it's likely cheaper.

 

and as long as " one " keeps up the rent to the " Lifelord " ..

 

the real worries of the " property " are His to take care of.

 

therefore " i " say to you..

 

do not worry about " your " life..

 

what " you " will eat or what " you " will drink..

 

nor about your body....what you will put on.

 

is not Life more than food and the body more than clothing?

 

look at the birds of the air..

 

for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns..

 

yet your Lifelord feeds them.

 

which of " you " by worrying can add one inch to her stature?

 

so why do " " you " worry about clothing?

 

consider the lilies of the field..how they grow..

 

they neither toil nor spin

 

yet " i " say to " you " that even Michael Jackson in all his glory..

 

was not arrayed like one of these.

 

now if the Lifelord so clothes the grass of the field..

 

which today is..

 

and tomorrow is thrown into the oven..

 

will the Lifelord not much more clothe you..oh you of little faith?

 

therefore do not worry..saying 'wat shall we eat?'..

 

or 'what shall we drink?' or..

 

'what shall we wear?'

 

for after all these things the gentle losers..

 

who think they own themselves seek.

 

for the Lifelord knows that you need all these things.

 

but seek first the Lifelord.

 

and all these things shall be added to you..

 

well you know the rest of that shit.

 

just don't get down on your knees to any " one " .

 

not even yourself.

 

your " self " is not yours to throw away in any case.

 

the Vastness takes no enemies.

 

..b b.b.
