Hi Turiya,
Just curious...have you studied daoism? What sort of practice do you do? You've been at it a while, haven't you?"

Pamela,

It was a fortunate thing to have happen… i stumbled across a Master… it was not a search… it was not something I was looking for … it came unexpectedly… it surprised me when i realized what was happening…

In short...i had a troubled mind… it would not leave me alone… it caused me much pain & suffering… it was a dark night… I did not love myself… did not love others… a dis-ease given to me by my father…

It is not possible to put what happened to me into words… all I can say is that meditation happened to me… satori… from this, it was understood that I was not the mind with its array of thoughts, emotions, desires…and feelings… ego… but something much much more...
I fell into a space between thoughts and disappeared… it happened almost by accident… because it was not expected… it was found that when ego dies… then, truth is … bliss is… love is… god is…

And when ego is... then god, love, bliss and truth are not…
For ego is a tension... when it is puffed up, it covers over that which is... it covers over who we really are... there comes a separation from existence... from nature... from others.

From this it was found that the more one is understood by oneself… the mind, the emotions, the feelings… the thoughts and desires... to go deeply into understanding "who i am", there is almost a miracle that happens... The more one comes to know oneself, at the same time, the more the other is understood … the more all others are understood. And the more one loves himself, the more love arises... the more compassion there is for others...

With this experience it is clearly understood that all is connected… and interrelated… we are just like the waves of an infinite ocean… appearing to be separate… but really deeply connected…

Unconsciousness is the only sin… awareness -the only virtue.

I cannot say I have a practice… just watching myself whenever it is remembered to do so. Watching is meditation… watching whatever is happening... within and without… without the mind… without thinking… without the distractions that the ego brings in... just emptiness and watching and waiting… and listening… it is enough…

Yes, this is the way… the wu wei

Peace to you PTree
