Guest guest Posted February 1, 2004 Report Share Posted February 1, 2004 Hey Dawg, Am not especially interested in talking about Buddha. Nor about Ramana, nor about Nisargadatta. Most of what I write is from my own experience. All that I write comes from " within " . If the words " find a flow " , out they go. That's it in a nutshell. Ideas mean nothing. So wanna spill some of your own beans Dawg? I don't mind being vulnerable. How about you? It is just vibrations we are bouncing. Not ideas. Even if someone thinks they have ideas, it is just energy patterns swirling. What is substantial in any of this? Nothing, I say. Elasticity is the thing. The breaking of all brittleness. The grinding to dust. The moment is a fluid dance. Fall behind one second and you die!

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2004 Report Share Posted February 1, 2004 You're alright, Bill. I guess I don't have too much to add to what you & seesaw & sk & others have been saying. You guys seem to all be on the right track. That is, no track. Once the realization of no- self hit me, the meaning of no guru, no teaching, no student hit home. And even saying that is a meaningless redundancy. I'm not really into talking about the Buddha or Ramana or Nisargadatta, either. I'm into doing what they taught. Like I splain ya, I'm like a kid in a candy store when I discovered Ramana & Nisargadatta, etc. The things they said confirmed what I had already discovered & propelled me to go deeper. You go deeper until you realize there's no you going anywhere. It's so awesome. Thanks for your help. I'll be hangin round til it's time to slough off this body-mind thing. Later...

Guest guest Posted February 2, 2004 Report Share Posted February 2, 2004 Yeah. I got a sordid past, Bill. I was practically raised up in bars. Lived the fast life back in the day. What can I say? Young, dumb & full of cum. If ya know whatta mean? I'm older now & things have changed. I'm ripe, as Beedie Baba would say. As far as the body-mind thing. It's contiguous. The body is the mind. The mind is the spinal cord & brain, etc. It picks up on things & encodes them in the cell tissues. The mind is just thought. Thought is electro-chemical reactions firing in the synapses of the brain. The mind is as phoney as a three dollar bill, Boss. Don't believe it. It's all make-believe. The ego is make-believe.
