But they are more useful than one that is full.

Hi Daemon,

 

Don't take it that way. To me it is more a celebration for you that you have found peace at last - and time for moving on.

 

The Tao pertains to emptiness - The Void?

Okay, I'll let you get away with that.  You did good.

 

Adding conditions almost always changes our perspective.

Does not apply, the empty vessel is referring to a process in energy cultivation.  One must develop the empty vessel before they can fill it with energy.  If it has a lot of energy then there can be no 'thirst' for energy.

Thanks but in all fairness, I should point out that responding to someone who's stuck on transmit is really easy.

But they won't hear you.  Why even respond?  They wouldn't know whether you did or not.

 

If they respond to something you said it means they were listening.  They might totally disagree with you but even to disagree they would have to have been listening.

Fair.  I always try to speak directly to the person I am having a discussion with.  But then, I understand that if we are going to speak we should keep in mind that whatever response we make may be helpful to someone who is not a part of the discussion.

 

How did we get here?  Empty vessels?

Reminded me of an Albert Camus quote (Likely my favorite from him):

 

"Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow. Don't walk behind me, I may not lead. Walk beside me and be my friend."

 

I have never and will never walk a path of darkness.  I trust my intuition to guide me into the light.

 

I think there is value in "a path of light" and this is why I have interacted with you and have walked with you to this point.

 

But I still think that there is one more level after attaining a path of light and that is to return to the source; that is "pure energy".  However, a path of light is necessary in order to return to the source.

I wouldn't normally speak directly to the concept of Narcissism as I have never studied the concept.  Ego, of course, I speak to often but most of what I say is based in my own experiences and understandings.

 

I took only two psychology courses when in college.

 

But yes, no matter how tall and strong the tree is, one day it too will fall.

I must say, I was encouraged following this thread.  You guys reconciled well together.
