NeiChuan Posted April 1, 2011 (edited) To a path, the more difficult it is to progress in, the fewer the people there will be to keep it alive. All paths Meditation/guitar/ballet/running/football/basketball ect are variables. they're essentially same being they are all Arts. It is debatable whether something can be perfected, but that is the goal. There is no path better then another, in the same way one season is better than another. You also eventually end up in "your" ideal season. The one thing all paths have in common is they lead to the same thing in the end, the source. You may start at guitar, or running, but the underlying goal is divinity.. It is inevitible. Edited April 1, 2011 by NeiChuan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marblehead Posted April 1, 2011 the underlying goal is divinity.. yeeHA!! Hehehe. Of course, I do not hold to this understanding. The underlying goal is self-actualization. (My opinion, of course.) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mYTHmAKER Posted April 1, 2011 To a path, the more difficult it is to progress in, the fewer the people there will be to keep it alive. When paths don't die they eventually become religions. A path is similar to a maze - some find the way some don't:) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aridus Posted April 2, 2011 Way out my front door is not religion. It's how I get outside. No sarcasm. Really think it is that simple. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aridus Posted April 2, 2011 Right. Which door do you take to go inside:) Very good question. I don't see this as very different though. Maybe some people run with their eyes closed. How do you get out of my house? How do you get to my house? There is a way for both, but I can't tell because it depends on where you are and where my house is. I think inside is the same. Depends on where you are and where inside is. Both require awareness. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
