There are many teachers and many teachings.But the lessons you most need to learn are already known to you, if you will only take the time to recite them. Talk to yourself. Ask yourself what you think. You will learn all you care to know.

I've noticed that quite often when a person seeks advice etc., they already have the answer but are looking either for confirmation or an alternative answer to the one they already have within them. When I am asked by someone, for example..."am I doing the right thing?" I usually respond with,"Because you are asking, do you not think that you already know the answer? Ask yourself first, be honest with YOU! Take desire or want out of the equation and and you'll know." Often then the person responds with,"wow, you're right!..or.."I was hoping I was wrong,I didn't like my answer".....I think teaching a man to fish is better than giving him the fish. IP: Logged |

aries-chick, you're a tiger... Cool, dog, horse, and tiger, belong to the same trinity. I dont know any tigers, but, from what I've read (and from what you've written, lol), they sound like VERY powerful people. Thanx for tipping your hat to my reply, I'm just glad you read it. Let us never speak of it again, lol! , hsc IP: Logged |

Sometimes I think, we already know, really know, even without asking and answering oursleves. So, maybe all we really need is to shut the hell up (lol!)."Be still, and know that I am the Lord." - the holy bible "I know what I know, if you know what I mean." - Edie Brickel "If you have the courage to touch life for the first time, you will never know what hit you. Everything man has thought, felt and experienced is gone, and nothing is put in its place." "Whether you are interested in Moksha, Liberation, Freedom, Transformation, you name it, you are interested in happiness without one moment of unhappiness, pleasure without pain, it is the same thing." "We don't want to be free from fear. All that we want to do is to play games with it and talk about freeing ourselves from fear." "Your constant utilization of thought to give continuity to your separate self is 'you'. There is nothing there inside you other than that." "When the movement in the direction of becoming something other than what you are isn't there any more, you are not in conflict with yourself." --U.G.

To speak, then, to pronounce judgement, is to admit defeat.The inner dialogue is endless and eternal. Only silence is infinite. IP: Logged |
