Guest guest Posted October 11, 2000 Report Share Posted October 11, 2000 Yes, the search can be quite dramatic, exciting, fun, fearful, frustrating, and go on forever - seemingly. For me, when I realized I was searching for confirmation of 'my' truths, bang! The door flew open. The truth is so simple and deep and well ahem 'dramatic' that oh poo! I just can put it into words that make any real sense. This I will say though - everything that I thought and belived is/was absolutely 100% wrong! And that is ok! The closest I can describe or explain who/what we are: That which is looking out of our eyes right now is the self or the Self. The difficulty with this explaination that we have is the habit we have formed of being our regular old selfs. I mean after all who feels particularly holy or enlightened? Yet all the sages and scriptures point to the ordinary self as the Self. Sheesh! Pardon the simplicity of this post. Life SHOULD be complicated, don't you think? HAHAHAH and HOHOHO!
