Guest guest Posted July 4, 1999 Report Share Posted July 4, 1999 << I came here wanting answers to my legitimate questions. The lady medidation teacher from Australia, whom many respect, recommended this List. Thus far i do not have the FOGGIEST idea what you guys are TALKING ABOUT!!!! cAN SOMEONE PLESE TALK IN plaing ENGLISh, IF IT IS POSSIBLE??? Nav >> --- Yes. You think you are a person with certain qualities, memories and goals. That is only the surface self. What you are at the core is sometimes called 'spirit' or 'soul'. This essence of you is silent. It is not conceptual - it doesn't think. It has no boundaries or distinctions and is exactly the same in everyone and everywhere. If you want to know this for yourself, look for it in your inner nature, in your inner inner heart. More than likely if you allow your curiosity to remain, teachings, teachers, meditation practices and other experiences - unpredictable - will show up. Because this is a whole new way of seeing things it will take a while for understanding to grow. It may be most helpful just to listen for a while. There's another forum with more activity at present. Find it on - Nonduality Salon. You are most welcome. Xan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nav stated in his or her first letter: "Friend of mine recommended this list () because I am interested in spirituality." Please read that line again. If it didn't sound wimpy to you the first time, I hope it does now. Being curious is okay, but being very hungry, or aching 'to know', is a lot better. I hope you have some fire in you. Because your questions are nothing better than green firewood. Now curiosity can lead to hunger. If one can see why they are curious, and penetrate what that is, then one can become hungry to go deeper and deeper. And that's really why you were sent here, not to have your questions answered. So, as I asked in a separate post, Why are you here? Is it mere interest and curiosity? Or are you a drowning man in need of oxygen? There isn't much in between. ---Jerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
