*If you can liberate someone with your writings, you should feel joy in it. But you should relentlessly try to liberate people Teaching a kid to ride a bicycle can make you happy. There is a very simple old man behind the success of Mike Tyson. Once that man died, Tyson's ego took over and led to his downfall. The real master has no interest in power and fame. But he can transform the lives of many. Great masters like Nisargadatta and Ramana are obscure among 99% of the Indian population. So you can see how crooked and viciousare the values of humans. I feel very sorry for the value system being forced upon humanity. The body mind is a disease which afflicts the Self and one should do everything to get rid of this disease forever. * On Thu, Jun 24, 2010 at 2:50 PM, <[email protected]> wrote: > I didn't mean the society, I mean my own personal pride for 'producing' > some good shit within this group. > > Sent via BlackBerry from Vodafone > ------------------------------ > *From: * roomsearching <[email protected]> > *Date: *Thu, 24 Jun 2010 13:51:27 +0100 > *To: *<[email protected]> > *Cc: *Advaita<[email protected]> > *Subject: *Re: Tempting > > There is no pride in being self-realized. > It has no value in society.
