Effects of Expanding Awareness

[Ciel]

Evolution is a happening process.
From entering through the back door of life, we arrive whole and complete, standing at the front door of entrance into new expanded capability. There is no longer need for long hours of meditation or contemplation. Instead incredible simplicity in new openness and acceptance, like a gentle smile to an unknown stranger.Life flows in new sensuality, and this world becomes friend beyond boundaries, with open communication on all levels.
God, it's just so nice to be here...............................................

Most people find me wierd, but wise. This has made it all the more difficult to find like minds.

What Buddhism stresses is that this is a solitary path. It's getting easier to realise. Slowly but surely.

Hi samabudhi,

Most people find me just weird. (I'm not expecting too many people at my funeral and if any do turn up they may be repelled by my choice of music!). The only 100% "like mind" is one's own (Although forums on the net allow a wider, ahem, net to be cast for similar ones).

It is an absolute truth that all is inter-connected but it is a relative truth (as a zen teacher who's name escapes me so profoundly said...) that we cannot even share a fart.

I think this is what Metamorphosis by Kafka is about. The idea of this big thing you are now that nobody understands and sometimes really even "bugs" them in a big way...

Yeah it's lonely. You know, I like listening to people like Leonard Cohen and John Martyn because they make me happy. I hear people say "how can you like that, it's depressing." I think they're being reminded how lonely existence really is, whereas people like me who already know can think "Thank God there's someone who knows what I'm going through". I get the same off the Bible and the poetry of Rumi and all the spiritual texts.

When you get connected with somebody who has the same lucid spark, it's just magic. I sometimes see a whole crowd of people who look like cardboard cutouts, with maybe one or two really shiny pairs of eyes that you can read clear as day.
