I haven't been hanging around FFL long enough ( 3- 4 year pause) to know if that one known as peter reveals where the consciousness is resting. In the short time span of my return, I have noticed questions directed that way towards Peter and they went unanswered. This post is the first one I have seen where the reference is about what is known by direct knowing.
Most of the jokes that have been made through the years, I struggle and beg to understand even one, it would be like Lord, pleassssse just onceeeee, let me understand one of his jokes, but noooooooooo, didnt happen. Well maybe a few once in a while Did you Peter refer to me as weird or mysterios once or twice? Anyway, why peter would joke the way he does when the writting below looks as far as I am able to tell, a writing about truth, is beyonddddddddddddd meeee. I would think there is great hope here if all the mind and body identification is not yet gone, that in this case the descriminating facualties are good enough for Peter to know that the ego can play tricks when there is just a trace left, and this is a significant time to be close with a Realized guru so that the certainty of it is there, in spite of the comments from Realized Gurus that once one is there, they know it for themselves 100%. I think you are barking up the wrong tree with ssrs and TM at this point. I also think you erred with your assessment of Ego for sarojini- i am familar with her writtings in the past year and have observed her journey, and there was non sense in your response when poised with a response concerning your kundlaini comments. With writtings like below, why you would also post non sense responses sometimes which I think you know are non sense and are capable of not doing is again beyondddddd meee. I have expressed my opinions here and have said i am not enlightened- wouldnt surprise me that I may be quite off the mark in some of the things I just wrote. I can say if you can relate to it, I am more in the present than ever, and this is an exerience hard to explain with words but the memory is like blocked out yet what is needed comes. It is sort of like an experience of concscious knowing what to do, and the mind quiet. My letters are almost always first run- then hit the send button without rearranging anything or maybe very little.Sometimes I just write and send without proof reading. This post is along these lines as well. I wondderrrrr what that mysterios one known as Peter has to say in response. Hridaya > Let me riff off of your comment, Rick.
