Guest guest Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 When we are happy, this is a result of the cause of someone else sad. We inhale because someone else exhales. We pass on from this body so another may take it's place. This could go on forever. Even heaven could not exist without a hell. Heaven's toilet I suppose lol. We are faced with the paradox of acceptance in so many things. There must always be war in-so that peace may be acheived and vice versa. The codependance of these extremes. How does one sit and pray for the end of suffering, universal compassion, etc, when in truth, one knows these things cannot manifest? The only conclusions whoud be that by becoming a part of these virtous efforts, we are doing no harm to anyone nor ourselves. It keeps us planted on a meritous path and we do have the assurance of the powers of prayer. Some of us aspire for the impossible with total sincerity. How can this be a waste of time in any fashion? Impossible. The way the universe works (at least so far) is the essentialness of opposites. I ponder how many stars, planets and the such had to die in order for our world to be born? As long as our motivations and thoughts remain pure, we are adding to the light, but also, light carries with it the birth itself from darkness. Such a puzzle. So, just relax, do the best we can, and if we represent goodness, it will inturn be replaced with goodness after we are gone, such the same also applies to the dark of course. Rest in the middle where there is truth, understanding, and wisdom/acceptance, afterall, what else can we do. (smiles). Compassion To All, randy Looking for last minute shopping deals?
