Guest guest Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 I think there are many paths and that total nothingness is only one of them. Perhaps you could also gain enlightenment by total everythingness :-)) I don't think feelings are a hinderance, I think its more a case of weather you feel complete inside, not needing something to fill you up, but rather things becoming a rejoicing or celebration, an outpouring of bliss and love, where you give rather then take. Thats the way I see it. Attachment is when you feel the need for somethingand without it you are lacking in someway, your happiness is altered by the fact of weather you have it or don't have it. Where as true happiness can not be altered when the inner light is on, weather you have or have not, you are always perfect, with everything you need, no need to chase after some thing or someone. But just because you don't need to doesnt mean you cannot partake in pleasure and outpouring of rejoicing from the soul. Dance, Twirl, Sing, Make Love, Rejoice. And of cause partake in lots and lots of laughter :-)) elektra x x x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
