A short essay on the subtle architecture of our inner life
old3bob replied to Bindi's topic in General Discussion
I'd say that the "indestructible core" does not evolve, has no need to evolve, and if it did then it could also devolve; what does is evolve is our souls (light bodies) which to me would equate to bettering and ultimately fully synchronizing to said core without anything in the way or separation. (including even our particular minds which are apparent or aspects of the total mind which is beyond such particulars) Also the idea of upgrading human consciousness/mind if that is what you mean is right on whereas pure consciousness or pure Shakti needs no upgrade and already is one with the indestructible core. We could say that the motive or spiritual emotion and need to return to unbreakable Truth/Sat and Shakti are built into the billions/trillions/zillions of us forms that are searching in every which way possible to do find that which is right under our noses... The Hindu Sages came to a realization of that return and proclaimed, "Om Tat Sat, Om Tat Sat...Om Tat Sat Om.........." Good day -
those are good little buggers in a compost pile once they have done their work...

did he also get his toe nails done, apparently some guys are doing that now (will i follow suit, probably not)
-
whatever gets posted here from A-Z is more or less ok and could also be fair game, including restoring one's health which is big topic in the exercise/planet fitness world...
-
maybe a discarded compost pile waiting to be reused...?
-
bigger row boats are better? maybe not... (oops this goes in the other morphed string.)
-
"It's alive"!
-
"Galapagos" sounds like a wild read!
-
you might give us an idea about that?
-
very nice job!
-
just get there before all the ice melts or it will be underwater like in Water-world....with people growing gills.
-
that is hard to imagine in the Tomb Thumb, they must of had fairly calm waters? I like that song, "wooden boats and iron men".
-
evil in multiple forms is attacking the earth and its decent people in every way possible... "Resist not evil" only works so far, so then where is your cutoff point?
-
not the "Peace that passes understanding" Btw some made it with jazzy class....
-
or a rabid wolf in sheep's clothing
-
Besides being built like a tank those Kirby vacs really suck which is a good thing... (also talk them way down from their asking price or one may need to take out a loan to pay for it!)
-
well if Ernest Shackleton can do it so can you; btw, a few more mates could help with that boat...
-
Indeed, Garden Island looks like its a tough place to be!
-
on the human level its not so easy to say...as for a Buddhist or Bon Dharma (wrathful) guardian deity or temple guardians I think you have a good idea... I appreciate the teachings of a proportional response, (traditions) maybe with a little extra thrown in. Some of our martial artists may have something to say about that from their practice? Btw. in some cases there could be kick first and maybe ask questions later scenario.
-
not to worry I think I heard hell is also empty....
-
so some seem to see no difference (or a cut off or on point so to speak) between just verbal/non-verbal interaction and interaction at much stronger levels of energy that can have far more serious results. I'd say that idea is bogus as it can be !
-
hmm, not so in the sense of magnitudes, I'd say "resist not evil" is coping via spiritual phycological methods whereas in more violent situations different means are rightly called for. That is unless one is a 100% pacifist no matter what and is prepared to suffer whatever is dished out. (?) Examples: a verbal confrontation that starts and ends that way compared to a life or death fight that also starts and ends that way. (there are also progressions, namely escalations or de-escalations that start and end in one way or another)
-
Well that saying is along the lines of not getting caught up in or being reactive too evil which I'd say works to a point, but the point can also come when being a pacifist, "turning the other cheek", ignoring, or acting above it all during developing and dire situations no longer works. (or is applicable)
