Orb Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 (edited) Random insight, no relationships, only expression! 😌 Edited March 22, 2022 by Orb Quote Mention "Mediocrity is gone. Mind is clear of limitation. I seek no state of enlightenment. Neither do I remain where no enlightenment exists. Since I linger in neither condition, eyes cannot see me. If hundreds of birds strew my path with flowers, such praise would be meaningless." - A Comment on the 8th Ox Herding Picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think a thought is going to occupy 'no thought'. The 'changeless' can be realized only when the ever-changing thought-flow stops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orb Posted March 23, 2022 Author Share Posted March 23, 2022 @Faith relationships are about fitting 2 objects/ separate selves. There is none of that in the present moment. There's just expression happening, no need to try and make relationships happen, just express to everyone.

Faith Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 @Orb ..and you either jive with the expression or are repelled by it, lol. Quote Mention You're a thought.

What's making the distinctions, is it thought? If there's no distinctions being made, there's no need for relationship is there? Distinctions are expressions of pure being, carved up by whatever's making the distinctions. So perhaps we're in agreement here. Edited March 24, 2022 by Links Quote Mention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
