Guest guest Posted September 26, 2000 Report Share Posted September 26, 2000 I ran across this old post of Judi's and my response. This may not be suitable for all ages and temperaments. If you feel uncomfortable at any point, please stop reading immediately. Thanks Harsha Judi: So, yes, thank God for the ones that speak. I've said this before and it's absolutely true. This world would truly be a hell without them. And anyone who comes into enlightenment and talks, I'm the first one to be kissing their feet. Judi Harsha: When I was in college, an artist (a fellow student) once saw me barefoot and was fascinated by my feet. She wanted me to model so she could draw my feet. She couldn't stop talking about the toes, the curvatures, the beautifully formed nails, etc. I was somewhat surprised by the many praises my feet received from her. She even said in front of other people that these were truly fine feet, the finest she had seen. When I was alone in my room in private, I carefully looked again at my feet, as if for the first time. I had taken them as ordinary feet, but I noted that they were indeed truly beautiful. I carefully washed them with Dove soap and massaged them with oil and scent for a few days. But I did not wish to model my feet. Going commercial with my feet did not really appeal to me. I felt such beauty should be for private viewing only. In the Indian tradition, it is customary for people to touch the feet and even kiss the feet of their gurus and the enlightened ones. Some are comfortable with that some are not. It does not really matter one way or the other. Judi mentioned her wanting to kiss the feet of the enlightened ones. My feeling is that flying kisses to the feet of enlightened would also be acceptable. I mean who enjoys people slobbering over their feet all the time. It is hard to hold a good conversation in that posture. In any case, everyone has their own feet. Ultimately you must see the beauty of your own feet and kiss your own feet. Your back has to be very flexible to actually be able to kiss your feet. Flying kisses to the feet are within the reach of all.

I suspect that if you really look at anything with those eyes, you will see that it's beautiful. Love, Dharma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.
