reason or violence or labeling

[Guest guest]

Dear Paula,

 

What you wrote and what Dhayana wrote are correct. Dr. Kahlifeh was

killed by an idiot, does not matter he thinks he is moslem or not.

idiots are abound, moslem, christian, hindo, atheist,...

 

We have to learn to REASON instead of violent actions, or attaching

labels to those that we do not understand.

 

It is OK he did his work and got out a bit sooner than his coupon

Hi Paula,

 

I am with both you and Shahin on this one. My take on this is that

first reason has to emerge, to transcend the limitations of being

lost and identified in impulses and emotions such as anger and rage

and lust. Once reason has emerged with a stable sense of identity in

the mind (ie a strong and well functioning ego), then that ego may to

be transcended by awakening to Spirit, and so being able to observe

the mind.

 

However, being identified with ego and the discriminating mind (which

is something we all unavoidably go through), the world gets chopped

up into good and bad, right and wrong, and that creates suffering. I

was there for a long time, and at times I was an excellent

fundamentalist.

 

I went travelling again a couple of years ago, with the simple intent

of dropping my reliance on knowledge and learning to follow my heart

and finding my own wisdom. K has helped tremendously in that process,

or rather, I had no choice but to surrender the mind, and learn to

see it just as a type of fantasy in awareness.

 

love to all

Bruce
