am i on the path?…..
or am i on the path to the path?…..
the path that leads to the ladder.
the ladder to what?…..
that which belief assumes is no incentive for higher being…..
only the supreme desire to escape sleep shakes heaven……
only sincere efforts,…..
tireless efforts without gaps….
bring allies and succor…..
only pure will… will take me to the first step on the ladder….
oh… heaven of golden freedom……
oh…. cooling exoneration for growing the truth…..
…. no desire…. no glory…. sans atman……

how do you alleviate the suffering of
your fellow man.
love them

happiness is what's left over
when you stop beating yourself up
(still couldn't make this look right…. something is wrong in the code.) oh well.:cool:
apparently my continuous attempts to put my words in the order i mean them to be are out of the conditions of opera formatting… so i give up. just read it all as a run on sentence. instead of as an offering of snippets.i mean i even got your comment, symphonied before i finished my edits. … ahhhh the conditions imposed by modern life.thanks for your good wishes… b.
Sounds odd, but so true.And that slide is beautiful, Scott. :)Hope u attain everything attainable on ur "path to the Path". 🙂
Ah I could figure it out before the dots too though. 🙂 But it definitely looks better now. :up:And abt formatting….look what I went through to post THIS !!
In that case, I strongly recommend u not to click on that link! 'Cuz no matter how u scrutinise it, u wont find a shred of any constructions there. :p Just bits of gibberish piled up.
i see… b., e.e.cummings would probably throw up his gigantic arms and go back to the spluttering pen nib. when i am not so… at the end of my daily quota of energy, i will study these constructions more carefully and comment.yes, sarah… it should have been,how do you alleviate the suffering of your fellow manlove them
i already went there and saw the constructions. just my eyes were too tired.
"How do you alleviate the suffering of Your fellow man Love them "…….
:up:
Well…I think that in what anyone is doing…whether it be the president of some company, or a stay at home mom…and anyone in between can contribute to the building of a better world. I do it by trying to raise kids that are tolerant and kind to others..not selfish…and in touch with the environment and life around them. Trying to show them that the world is bigger than just their bubble, their own little world. Raising little humans to love is not an easy task…as you know.:)
beautiful sarah.that's all i tried to do with my children also.now is different for me. i am trying to find a voice which will touch the recalcitrant minds of the world.there is not a lot of self-questioning going on. just a lot of opinions based on mechanical osmosis of prejudices from parents and communities people are striving to conform to. and that's just a survival mode.i am interested in originality. new ideas which are practical and new intuitions regarding the meaning of existence itself. but of course constructive ideas are what are needed; not a re-hashing of what has crystalized in the minds and the very behaviour of even those closest to us. sin and blame and self-reproof are so passe'.we are functioning in a critical period. and must all put our shoulders to the wheel. if we don't, then that's the end of the experiment until another ten trillion years. but who cares how long it will take to create heaven.
wow, that was good david. i appreciate your insight.
Hi Scott,I like your commentary and the "Cubist" slideshow (Well done!) :D: It will always be hard to find your own 'ground truths', much less pass along life's wisdom to others, as most people are hypnotised by the mental mirrors our egos use to preen themselves….
i like the way you can stop the cube or direct it with a click or blow one up… i may do more of these.
Beautiful words. Thank you.As for the formatting, I have a similar problem if I copy a link to youTube. Not sure why.
Bonsoir Scott, Vos mots sont très jolis et je suis très très émue par leur pureté. I am glad to know that someone on the earth still has such pure and deep thinkings. "Only sincere efforts, tireless efforts without gaps" : who is the angel who wrote this ??Very nice cube !!Liu
san,i think it was typing it first in word. then i pasted it in and it all ran together. nobody will know what we are talking about because with new energy i will simply delete the post and type it anew the way i meant for it to appear.liu,votre visite me rend tres heureux. merci pour le comment generoux.
nicely done, even with Opera's goofy system
kim,thanks for the comment. it seems to work fine if i just type my posts directly. so i won't get into that bind again.
lol..ok
Deep thoughts, very cool cube!
Il faut dire 'Merci pour le commentaire généreux' I'll come back to read you, it's always a pleasure. :)Liu
