Guest guest Posted May 9, 2002 Report Share Posted May 9, 2002 Hi all, I have a sincere question for all. At some stage, you start realizing that whatever you ever could do is but " relative " to constraints of impositions of the mind. So, there is ABSOLUTELY nothing you can ever do to get enlightenment because , being rooted in the mind, it is not possible to know something beyond it. Right now, it seems as if my spiritual quest has done a full circle and Im back in square one. But then I also feel that something has happened in the process. What , I really doon't know, but things seem clearer.Anybody with similar experiences , greter insight? Responses would be greatly appreciated.
