Re: Transcendence

It is a coded instinct and is not natural.. It seems natural upon first glance.

As far as hunger, this too was influenced buy the same players. But when we accept this as a natural phenomenon and accept "what is" as the usual flown fodder, we get diverted into discussions that take us way beyond where it would be if the influence was removed. Justifying the killing of another whether within species or without comes down a sidestepping into deeper distortions and disharmonies.

I see people having no problem seeing that war is wrong but when we move into areas where conditioning runs very deep and addictions rear their ugly head, we begin to see surreal justifications enter the spotlight. It's okay to take a life for reason x but not reason Y. One word. Weird!

The biological survival is part of an entropic spiral of disconnected consciousness.

People talk about looking into their heart and feeling things like what I am talking about. Some how "hunger" transcends compassion in "aware" individuals?

I wonder if Gandhi would have looked at it this way, a way that ensures the spiral of continued pain loops.

And yes it is very easy to say I would not take the life of another being. Very easy under all circumstances as anyone who knows me beyond this forum can attest too.

As far as your idea of the possibility of taking an animals life if you are very hungry can be handled as following (just one idea). What are those sheep, cows, pigs eating? Eat what they eat. Grass is healthier anyway. If the animal is not around what they normally eat then we are into a really distorted scenario aren't we? How distorted do we go to meet your point?

Awareness would not take you into that place of hunger in the first place. So do we keep people in the dark (like the powers that be have) or do we advance our thinking so this loop ends?

We can suppose this and that and bring in ifs. but the end result is the same. One being taking the life of another.

Perhaps Hitler was more aware than Gandhi? Just different belief systems afterall. ;-)
