Guest guest Posted March 8, 2000 Report Share Posted March 8, 2000 Namast All, Eric, Thanks for the poem it was very thoughtful of you. With regard to struggle, my last post 'let me explain', was a response to several actually. I don't think that I am indicating any more struggle on my part than the effort that is required to realise the Self. I am on here so I write as it comes out. Deception and self-deception is a struggle but not mine. I see the word 'realisation', bandied about and I am almost sure that many do not have a common meaning. The only meaning can be no mind, no experiencer and even no witness finally. No witness to anything. I try to stick to the words of accepted Realised Souls, who indicate it is not easy to do the easiest, give up the idea that we are a person. There is a certain ekagratha or one pointedness to making progress. The amount of Jesuses, Ramanas, Maharajas, etc on the planet is a mere handful. The amount who will realise themselves in this life on the planet is a mere handful. Some effort is required to get to that stage, and some spiritual dimension. I point out some obvious intellectual dead end illusions thats all. Well as far as I have experienced anyway, or have absorbed from the masters. Being clever with words or even just being peaceful doesn't bring realisation. Otherwise the peace and bliss acquired will be still in the mind and illusion. Perhaps they will go to a higher plane of consciousness after death. So I don't feel I have a struggle any more than effort! The only other thing is the Sai Fraud, someone mentioned so I responded, his teachings are valid though!
