Tearing down and building up

[Guest guest]

When I was a child and an adolescent and a young adult the general

idea/concept/intention was to built nice and beautiful and perfect

flawless houses. And I tried and I tried and I failed and I failed

and I tried again and I failed again, but stubborn was I for I had

been told, that man was bad and had to strive to be good and I did

obey.

 

When I married a man I married a man who destroyed everything, who

tore down all the nice, pretty images had formed " this here mind " .

I asked him why you do this? Why are you being such an asshole and

tearing down the beautiful dream-castles built by men who want the

good?

 

He said there is a time to tear down and a time to built up and it

is not an either or affair. It is that now you do this and now you

do that and there is perfect harmony see? And although it was hard

to fathom that destroying things could be good - it did eventually

come clear that the man was right & that was the reason why no man

can be good without being bad as well. What I was up, and fighting

against was dream-castles, windmills.

 

I see our notoriously famous bobby as one tearing down most of the

time, although not all of the time and no wonder! surrounded as he

is by people who only want the good without the bad, the holy with

out the secular and so on.

Dear Lene,

 

it is true, whatever comes and goes is just a stream of events, sometimes it is good, sometimes bad, but always changeful, so only way is to go beyond glamour of appearances and be real, changeless. I abandoned all false identifications (from childhood till married man age) and you can talk about anything, but I know it is in mind area and no imagination I take for reality. So you can try to explain to others about existence of both sides (good and bad), but no longer to me. i know (thanks to acceptance of GuruÅ› words) it is just mind exercise.

 

Jai Guru
