Theos-Talk Archives (February 2008 Message tt00106)

No doubt its there, trying to find a way to get rid of
it :-)
However I never gave it a chance to flourish but
through my mind, in ordinairy life I am a loser, one
of the few who were supposed to be lost as KH said it
somewhere in the ML when forgetting or renouncing the
joys of physical existence, to be killed by the people
who rule the material world.
As good or bad as it goes with this ego of mine, used
as a toy to progress on my Path, the more I forget
about Nirvana, since I have to state here Nirvana is
the worst illusion outthere unless all beings can
benefit its bliss. Untill that day, which seems
endlessly far away, I reject the peace of Nirvana,
since it may calm my soul, but there is too much to do
for her. Peace I find in a few moments when asleep, to
comfort just the little man which is still here.
Basking is the wrong word you use, not even my dogs
have to do it. I would use the word 'asking', not for
my own nirvanic illusion, but for nirvana without its
illusion for all...btw Cass, you up to a fight it
seems, by attacking me?
