Guest guest Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 Every form of life on this planet is unique unto itself and yet at the same time is from the divine expression. So when we are living in duality which we are here on this earth we are separate and connected at the same time. Mind is not a problem. Ego is not a problem. They are mere aspects of our totality that have been given an out of balance control over the over all development. They can be brought back into balance and the development continued in a balanced format. The ego can be trained. The mind can be educated. We can choose to express our connection to the primordial one ness or not. We are still part of it and still unique expressions of the divine creation at the same time. - blessings to you Mikael this is merely my opinion - chrism , " mikael " <mixolyd wrote: > > how can you trust the mind when the mind is the problem in the first > place? > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 thank you for your thoughts chrism, this is different than what I have learned studying indian systems.. it's always good to get different points of views i'm currently reading Daughter of Fire by Irina Tweedie.. spiritual autobiography of training with a Sufi master in India. Sufism is very influenced by Hinduism.. the Guru gives shaktipat through glance and in his presence.. actives heart chakra, very love oriented system. full surrender to guru to achieve this.. and sort of a crazy wisdom type deal with guru always keeping the mind ego in confusion so as to keep the mind from attaching to anything. it's different, such a system. chrism i feel your way is great for those who are living in modern times and want to keep their individuality.. the american " do it myself " mentality. it may work better for us, who knows.. not me certainly. i'm only theorizing since I haven't gone very far on the path. glenn morris had a very similar attitude. back in the day, all this meditation, energy work, martial arts, kundalini, yoga stuff was kept secret for the most part. that's why you needed a master to teach you and make sure you were ready. nowadays its everywhere which explains all the spontaneous kundalini awakenings, and shakti is contagious theres also lots of good info out there and communities (such as this one) the guru/disciple system though i feel shouldn't be disregarded and looked down upon. its just a different way. more traditional yes, but possibly safer and more effective? maybe. :] , " chrism " <> wrote: > > Every form of life on this planet is unique unto itself and yet at the > same time is from the divine expression.
