Edgar,
Fingers of the Same Hand. Fingers of the same hand may seem like different
beings to one on the side-lines, with your score-card. If you come to realize
that you are that one being, then the "other" beings are fingers, playing a
shadow show, as hands are wont to do.
It's beautiful, and unimaginable to judges and score-card artists.
There is no right or wrong because there is only one. No "correct", as we keep
urging you to please see.
It's only you who feels that he is on the other side of this. There is no
other side, and no beings to see. They are saved, see? Wake up, and you will
see "aright". Until you do, you are wasting the world's time: it's not "your"
time, you know. I urge you to take responsibility. It's not too late. You
CAN reform.
Still, still!, as always, wishing the best; again.
What's a Bodhisattva to do? ;-)
On with it!,
Mush, you Husky. Sit. Settle. It will clarify.
