While he needs some time for getting organized, maybe we can discuss with one another what our responses may be to Harsha's thoughts. > >This one I selected for some relevance to Dirk's question.

If it is not Here and Now and is to be gained at some future time, then it must be subject to loss also. What can be gained can also be lost! Therefore that which is Real, Absolute, Eternal cannot be gained. It is what You already Are. Can we Accept This? What undermines the acceptance of our Own Natural State? >>> >>>God bless everyone with all that is best in life. >>> >>>------------------------------ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
