Fixing

[Guest guest]

Dear Friends,

 

If I cannot save, fix or help myself how can I expect to save, fix or

help others?

 

If I cannot recognize truth how can I expect others to recognize

truth?

 

If I cannot simply be how can I expect others to simply be?

 

If I cannot be joy and happiness how can I expect others to be joy and

happiness?

 

If I cannot drop endless idle speculation how can I expect others to

drop endless idle speculation?

 

What to do or not do? What to do or not do?

 

May we all be in It As-It-Is and have the experience of It As-It-Is.

 

Peace, equanimity, joy and happiness,

 

Victor

others to recognizetruth?If I cannot simply be how can I expect

others to simply be?If I cannot be joy and happiness how can I expect

others to be joy andhappiness?If I cannot drop endless idle

paths go somewhere. No path goes nowhere. Paths, places, sights,

perceptions, and indeed all experiences arise from and exist in and

subside back into the Space of Awareness. Like waves rising are not

different than the ocean, all things arising from Awareness are of

the nature of Awareness. Awareness does not come and go but is always

Present. It is Home. Home is where the Heart Is. Jnanis know the Heart

to be the Finality of Eternal Being. A true devotee relishes in the

Truth of Self-Knowledge, spontaneously arising from within into It

Self. Welcome all to a.To from this list,
