Akasha 108 writes:snipped from long interchange with Unc That's the one point on all of this where I think we differ. First, I see no value in labels such as enlightenment. It can create distinctions, it can creates longing for "titles", it can create false egos, it can creates scams, etc. And the upside is?
Tom T: I really have a problem with that E word for two reasons. One it carries such tremendous baggage that it does all of what Akasha has said above without anyone knowing it does. The second reason is that in western society the word light is totally enmeshed with the concept of switch/on/off. It is subtle but implies something not intended by the Rishis of old as they had no switches to link up with light. For me the word Awake is pretty simple and conveys my understanding that PC is in the foreground all the time along with whatever else is going on. It is as good a descriptor as any other word. Maybe Akasha can come up with a different word. No need to label but definately IT needs some language to describe what is going on without a fifty word description plus another fifty word disclaimer. ------------------------ Yahoo!
