Alethaeia Posted February 9, 2012 (edited) i just realized that seeking is what separates literally, seeking something from the universe is what provides the feeling of separation thank you Alan Watts ! ~ Â Â EDIT: i wonder, then, about my desire to contribute to, or "give back" to the universe...this must be the same thing, no?

Cat Pillar Posted February 10, 2012 i just realized that seeking is what separates literally, seeking something from the universe is what provides the feeling of separation thank you Alan Watts ! ~ Â Â EDIT: i wonder, then, about my desire to contribute to, or "give back" to the universe...this must be the same thing, no? Â I wonder when or if I'll have this kind of realization? Â To add to your question about "giving back"...I also wonder about any distinctions between seeking and growing...there seems to be a natural drive to grow and learn...is that the same as seeking? What about the drive to create? Â A fascinating subject of discourse... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
