Once we know some small part of realization, we're caught, and we continue knowing there is only the love, the nonduality beyond the "realness" of our daily Samsara. Someone posted on another list, about a farmer who grew corn, and who shared his award winning corn with all his neighbors. Someone asked him why he would share? He responded that the pollen of the neighbors' fields would cross-pollinate his own, ergo, he should share that his and everyone's corn do better. A real life example was my grandfather, who always shared the sperm of his award winning milking cattle of Northern Europe ... the farm is in the Beemster, Netherlands. Johannes Ruyter responded much the same way, "we all benefit as we cross-breed and share." This was before they knew cross breeding worked genetically <g>. He said the same for helping the Jews get out of Holland, for which he was shot by the Nazis. "When our fellow man suffers, we all suffer."

Guest guest Posted October 2, 2000 Report Share Posted October 2, 2000 Hi Rainbo, So you're saying that I should try to share my sperm with anything that moves, right? (It's my karma to hear it this way, and Mary's karma to clobber me for even thinking it...) I wish the Tiger would just get it over with and bite me. (am I sounding a little sacreligious?) hey, I like that word now that I look at it more closely. sacred as being opposed to religious?
