Guest guest Posted December 13, 2001 Report Share Posted December 13, 2001 Everthing that you can think of in this world is either a game or a toy. Everything that holds your interest is a game or a toy. As you mature the nature of your games change. The toys too are different. As you mature you are no longer interested in " hide and seek " or dolls. But you fail to realize that whatever replaces those childhood games are all games too. Work is a game that gets us money to buy toys. Family is a game, family members are toys. Religion is a game. When you get tired of playing all the games you come to a game called seeking. But it too is a game. When you lose interest in every game and every toy, you find yourself living in the now. Day dreams don't interest you, the past does not interest you, the future does not interest you. You are at last liberated! You are carefree [in the now]! _______ Get your free @ address at Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 14, 2001 Report Share Posted December 14, 2001 Is it Love also a game? Or is it a toy? How can there be a "thingoutside" the reality???? How can be that the "toy" or the "game" aren't as Real as "I" AM? ANYTHING (Love, consciousness, family, work and so on...) you focus is, or is not, as Real as the "focuser"?? .. - Jan Sultan SufiMystic Friday, December 14, 2001 1:34 AM Outgrow ALL Games and Toys Everthing that you can think of in this world is either a game or a toy.Everything that holds your interest is a game or a toy.As you mature the nature of your games change.

The 'focuser' and the 'focused' are One. Love is not a feeling or an emotion -- however, imagining " lover " and " beloved " as apart and separate is one of the roots of suffering. There is no subject- object, no lover and beloved. Love only. Namaste, Tim - http://coresite.cjb.net Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
