JG1001 Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 The eight fold path. To become enlightened you just have to be a good person. Don’t hurt anybody, and truly don’t want to bother anybody, and if you did something wrong truly be sorry about it. Quote Mention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jane Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 (edited) Then again, Love means never having to say your sorry. According to UG Krishnamurti…Love is a filthy word, it implies two. I am beginning to wonder if unconditional reciprocal love between two partners is even possible on earth. It’s as though once the honeymoon period is over, when we come back down to earth, back to reality…that’s when love starts to hurt like hell. Hell is other people as they say. What if the truth for Enlightened people is more shocking than they ever realised. The realisation that you are all alone in the world and that there is simple no one else who can give love to you, nor is there anyone else you can give love to. Thats the stark realisation I’ve reached anyway. And I’m perfectly at peace with that. In fact it’s the peace that passes all understanding as the great wise sages have said. ✌ peace out!

You don't give love, or take it. Also relationships (romantic) are mutual gratification, this is true in my experience. Who cares? Love that. ❤️ 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...
