G got to slightly disagree with you about LOVE,,,,,,you said we are all here to do the same thing ,do love,,,,,,,i dont DO love ,,love is the natural building block of all people,,,,it is more being ,rather than doing doing something takes concious effort,like making a cup of tea,,bit of thought of planning, love does not plan,or think it is like abird in flight, the bird does not question ,when i spread my wings will ,i fly everytime it takes off,,,,the decision to take off comes from mind,,freewill,,,,,the being side is knowing,,,is love is what opens the wings and makes them work ,,,,,so forget love ,,,love is already stablished,,,,our fearless thoughts ,actions deeds,,,thats my job whilst here, to go behond,what man thinks of as ,human limitation,,,,, and that i do every day of the week ,in some form or other,,,,,,,,,Along the journey, of spirituality,,there is a great pulling to be like a monk,to become a sage ,a wisard ,a wise ,holier than though,,holy person who speaks and acts like what you would expect,,,,,,,Iwatched the movieHANCOCK yesterday,,,,,i identified with it , with him,,,, a unique expression of love in human form,,,,,, Hancok types are the the types of people,that will do their job when ,and if the time should present itself,,,,,,,,

Thanks for the smileys and the fun guys.
You need only one word:
Celebrate 🙂

Rest are opinions of others and do not cherish them lol

My opinion is only my opinion and only works in my life

Have a great weekend!

This one had an impact, too…

A new monk arrives at the old Italian monastery for his celibate life of shared poverty and prayer, and is assigned to help the other monks in copying the old texts by hand. He notices, however, that they are copying from copies, not the original manuscripts. So, the new monk goes to the head monk to ask him about this, pointing out that if there were an error in the first copy, that error would be continued in all of the subsequent copies. The head monk says, “We have been copying from the copies for centuries, but you make a good point, my son.” So, he goes down into the cellar with one of the copies to check it against the original. Hours go by and nobody sees him. So, one of the monks goes downstairs to look for him. Hearing sobbing coming from the back of the cellar, he finds the old monk leaning over one of the original books crying, and muttering between tears: “There’s an R! There’s an R!” He asks the old monk what’s wrong, and in a choked voice came the reply, “The original word isn’t “celibate” but “celebrate.”

~~~~~~ . :O

I was reading on a spiritual humor website this morning, and ran across this one…

A lady goes to see her priest one day and tells him, “Father, I have a problem. I have two female parrots, but they only know how to say one thing.” “What do they say?” the priest inquired. “They say, ‘Hi, we’re hookers! Do you want to have some fun?’ Isn’t that awful?” the woman laments.

“That’s obscene!” the priest exclaimed. Then he thought for a moment. “You know,” he said, “I may have a solution to your problem. I have two male parrots who talk, and I have taught them to pray and read the Bible. Bring your two parrots over to my house, and we’ll put them in the cage with Francis and Job. My parrots can teach your parrots to praise and worship God, and your parrots are sure to stop saying… that… that indecent phrase…in no time.” “Thank you,” the woman responded, “this may very well be the solution!”

The next day, the woman brought her female parrots to the priest’s house. As he ushered the woman in, she saw that his two male parrots were inside their cage, holding rosary beads and actually praying, their pious little faces upturned toward heaven with beaks moving slightly as they prayed intently to the Lord.

Very impressed, the woman walked over and placed her parrots inside the cage with these very devout parrots. After a few minutes, sure enough, the female parrots cried out in unison: “Hi, we’re hookers! Do you want to have some fun?” A long moment of silence ensued. Shocked, one male parrot looked over at the other male parrot and exclaimed, “Put the beads away, Frank. Our prayers have been answered!”

The smile button can be produced by typing a colon like this : and a bracket like this ) right behind it and then the software used here will turn it into a smiley.

St John was the witness of Love, of Christ, but Christ is Love itself, The Christ Mind knows no such reality of low energies, for the Christ Mind is one with the Father- consciousness of all eternal Good, and is the eternal active Infinite energy of Pure Love itself. This is the true Unity of man with the Infinite Mind, Eternal Unity of Good is Love, where no sickness, discord or limitation is, nor ever was in Reality.

Kshatriya,,, thats interesting,you are catching the glimpses,,,,,,these are great exciting moments, a bit like seeing a trailer for a movie bits the producer wants you to see,so you invest the effort, to see the whole picture,,,,,The producer ,,,,universe may only want you to see the glimpses, but may also want you to see the whole picture, in my experience,,,,1 pint of beer can be acomodated,,,by a glass that can hold 1 pint anymore and the beer is spilt, If we wish fir more , bigger glimpses, maybe we have to expand the vessil, so the energy of glimpses can be increased, may be to a bucket,,,,,, the container always reflects its capacity, Happy days

Ok…I’m still stumbling upon cracks, windows, and doorways which allows me to catch glimpses of the eternal, and that tells me I might still be part of a disenchanted culture demanding that the world reveal itself fully…..

Which means it’s time to meditate.

peace

No dont think it is, enlightenment is the knowing, that we create what ever there is,and we are individuals who have greatness, that the un enlightened cant comprehend,

Isn’t enlightenment really nothing more than the quiet acceptance of what is?

By: John

John — Wed, 02 Feb 2011 22:45:01 +0000

If you understand the meaning of life then you are enlightened , as are all men , your knowing of life, comes from the inner you, when you accept yourself as from this place, then you seek nothing, If we seek nothing, we find nothing,,,we can feel are missing something,,, and we are the realisation that we have it already,,,,,,all good

Greetings my friend,
There is a very nice technique described in a book “The Book of Secrets” written by Deepakji. When you meditate, meditate on whatever is hurting you. Now, let that feeling be your whole universe. Don’t hold back. Take it to the extreme of it. Let it hurt you as much as it wants to. Then slowly, let go of that feeling as it has no meaning for you. After a period, you will see that that feeling has no power to hurt you because, you will be at a place of complete peace as far as that feeling is concerned. Your body will feel very relaxed and if you want, you can lie down for a while as long as you feel like it. Only one caution I would recommend is, don’t expect to do this in one session. It may take some more sessions, but you will see the difference from the start. Just be patient with yourself. After all, it is been huritng you for a long time, what matters if it hurts you a little longer. It is all fun. Just play around and see what happens.
With lots of love, light and thanks for sharing your pain,
nilesh

I posted this on Twitter, but I realized I needed to come here and post. What did you think of the series/movie, The Last Airbender? I ask this only because it focuses on the importance of balance and harmony.
