Theos-Talk Archives (April 2003 Message tt00074)

Hi. Sorry about the multiple messages, It was a mistake. I tried not to, but something went wrong with my computer.

Etzion, I hope I get a chance to comment on your kind and spiritual comments to me about centering the energy in the heart (my words, but you know what I am referring to. In Tibetan Buddhism, the whole aim is to bring what is called "the winds" to rest in the heart, but it is not that easy, as if one tries to do it, this stirs up the winds. Somehow, though, writing this message makes me feel happy. 

So much radical has happened in my life since March 15, it is bizarre and indescribable, much like a Kafka story. I will try to take your message to heart, though it seems idealistic to me. If you are living in Jerusalem, you have probably had a chance to practice under very stressful circumstances, and indeed you have mentioned being serene under such conditions. I will try to do this, too, though it is really not my cup of tea concerning practice, I believe there is no choice, which, oddly, makes me sad. Everything in the whole universe seems to be contriving to set up difficult conditions so I can develop spiritually. 

Even though your message did not strike a perfect chord with me when I first read it, I thank you again for being so kind as to write such a message to me. Sincerely, Wry
p,s, Though I do not agree with what you said about people posting my material from another list, I appreciate your comment, none the less.
