Guest guest Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 The object of my desire. Therefore, without desire, could there be an object? When the object of my desire is reached and fulfilled, it gratifies me and becomes my possession, added to the long list of my possessions. Threats are threats, because they threaten my possessions, hence fear and apprehension. When we live in a world without desires and possessions, could it be called world still? Alternatively, phenomena, that come and goes? Without desires and possessions, who are you? I cannot find who am I. I become like a small child with only a name. I look around and see who feeds me? and who shelters me? The answer would be all these phenomena. But how these phenomena know my needs? I do not know how, but they satisfy any need. There must be intelligence in these phenomena that directs them. No, an intelligence that knows your heart and your essential needs. What is this intelligence? You have never been without it. It never left you alone. Is this intelligence? that close. It is closer than you think; it is closer to you than your self is. Can it be called me? No. Can it be called I? Yes, it is The ONLY I but without you. By the word you, do you mean my desire and possessions? Exactly. m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
