Curtis, I learned from Tai Chi that the second you think you know you stop learning. One must always be alert for change to happen. Master Moy insisted on us remaining students in our attitude and, moreover, open to learning from our own students.
Opinions can be a terrible barrier and prevent us rethinking our position. I took a peek at one poster here on another subject and blow me down it could have been a rant written several years ago. One must find a balance between consistency and intractable opinion. I have opinions like everyone but in my heart I sometimes acknowledge that the only thing I KNOW is my Being as Silent, all the rest is decoration. Maharishi taught us that once we know the Oneness of life we can accept anything in diversity. Thank you for your courtesy. Love, David P.S my symptoms were light headedness, dizziness, as though drunk, a sense the world was receding away from me, occasional terrible grumpiness, extreme lassitude. Everyone there had the same thing so I swallowed my scepticism and tried to listen to what they said and how they explained it. In the process I became fascinated by the interpretations we apply to get through our days. I rather enjoy the crazy sometimes. And don't we all dwell in our own reality? If everything taught there was wrong it wouldn't affect me. My own life is so rooted in my own practices and I KNOW their effect. However believing in the separating 12 time lines does allow me to deal with the utter horror I also see in the world and the pain of being here. I find if I focus on my life and where I am and where I `believe' I am headed `all is well'. My only fear now is I live another ten years and nothing outside has changed. That is too painful. `I can't endure for only that. "It's a mighty big world out there isn't it? " Exactly what I said to Neil Patterson in Seelisberg when after 3 days he still wouldn't give me the video machine and recent tapes of Maharishi to watch. I got in my car and never looked back. > > --- In [email protected], "curtisdeltablues" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Thanks David.
