This is my thought process today. I hope you can follow along.
Where
are the true beings of higher enlightenment? Have they looked at us
and thought, "Nah, it's too much work" Are they amoung us and we are
too dumb to notice? If someone came up to you and said, "I can show
you the way to live a life of spiritual and cultural bliss." would you
believe them? Not that I am saying true enlightenment is "spiritual
and cultural bliss" but someone asked me that recently and now I am
sitting here wondering if he wasn't offering me a way to higher
ground. In this day and age is it feasible to think that someone can
offer to be your guide to enlightenment and mean it? And not be trying
to get something from you? Have we become too jaded and cynical to
become enlightened? Is our inherent mistrust in human nature, which is
due to years of bad karma and evildoing experience, blocking our
ability to gain a higher understanding of the reasons behind the bad
karma and evildoing?
Is this all just a circle of questioning that I
will never get out of? Does anyone really read all of this gibberish
and think to themselves, "I know exactly how he feels. If only I could
reach out and touch his mind I could take him to that utopia of
conscious bliss without having him mistrust it."? Where is the proper
place for punctuation in that last sentence?
Well, that turned out to be a lot different than I expected. A short burst of thought for a Tuesday morning.
How have all of you been?
What is going through your head these days?
If
you sat down without any idea of what you wanted to write and just
wrote would it come out as something coherent? would you censor
yourself or would you just let it flow? Would you care if other people
read it? Would you be wearing red socks as you did it?
These are
things that tie my mind up so that I can avoid writing what I think I
should be writing. Kind of like questions for a sunday morning. Why
do we drive on the parkway and park in the driveway? Why do we have an
insect called the fly and not one called the walk? Why is there air?
What is the purpose of the appendix? What does the color blue taste
like? Is television a good baby sitter? Does this age of immediate
information make us smarter or do we rely on the fact that the
knowledge will always be there at our fingertips and not retain any of
that knowledge?
And the list goes on and on. Perhaps I should
relax my mind a little more and let those thoughts slip away so that i
can be open to the bigger pictures. Or I could try to solve those
questions so that they won't come up again?
Anywho, Much love and thanks for listening.
