Hey Roger! Are you by any chance the reincarnation of that little boy who

said loudly that the "Emperor has no clothes on! (:--)." Frankly, I don't

care what anyone says. Dan-ji offers a cure for insomnia that modern science

cannot match!

 

Hey, we love you Dan-ji! (:--). Keep on keeping on guys.

 

I am just in a hilarious mood and could not resist.

 

 

Love

Harsha

Thanks for your beautiful post Dan. I've dutifully added the following

abstract from your post to my internal brain cell memory database of things

that it is NOT.

 

You say "Negating thoughts and concepts will never lead to It" ...yet your

post seems to be a skillful refined exercise in negation!

**NOT** any of the following:

tangible things, status, power, or enjoyable or rewarding experiences,

ignorance, fruitless paths, glimpses, beliefs, vain pursuit,

self-delusion, positive conceptual affirmations,

futile negation, approaches, non-approaches,

useless efforts, unrewarding pursuit,

self-conscious non-pursuit, imagined effortlessness,

attempts to gain, non-pursuit, thought,

previous experiences, feelings relate to prior feelings,

sensations interpreted against the background other sensations,

experience, intuition, feelings,

sensed remembered or cognized experience,

more speech, thought, references to experience, idea,

a relationship to an idea,

thoughts interpreted against the background of other thoughts,

Negating thoughts, dependency, meditation,

teachers or spiritual paths, more sensation, thought,

experience, letting go, doing nothing,

passivity, experience leading to accumulation,

more data in the realm of concept and experience,

claims about "'Something' beyond thought,

birth, deathlessness, birthlessness,

statements, activities, or inactivities,

efforts, non-efforts, finding, being, revealing,

Blessings, Roger.

Deep humble bow

for your willingness

to peruse with such diligence

my exercise in utter futility.

Generous of you to allow

that it evidences some skill

in negation.

I'll console myself with

your acknowledgement

in the midst of

this hopeless situation ;-)

 

Namaste,

Dan
