"If you need time to achieve something, it must be false.
The real is always with you;
you need not wait to be what you are.
Only you must not allow your mind to go out of yourself
in search."

- Nisargadatta Maharaj

wait, don't let your mind go out of you?

rather than going out of your mind?

one or the other, zen particle. NO SUM OF HISTORIES ALLOWED IN PHILOSOPHY.

we're much too macro for that.

Perhaps within limits.

At the same time, I'm certainly glad that people take time to achieve the "falsehood" of, say, practicing medicine.

hee.
yea, i knew when i posted that, it was out of context. ;)
context is in reference to experiencing wholeness of Self...

btw, didn't get to reply, but i really appreciated reading your post on 'spirituality'... i need to go back and read it, b/c i was intrigued that some of what your wrote sounds similar to what i read by those who generally fall into the "nonduality" category, (for lack of a way to reference an approach to experiencing without using a word, which automatically gets applied as a label... tricky! O.o ) you might be curious to peek at nisargadatta's "i am that"... i think you made a comment about denying everything, or rather, believing in nothing?.. resonates a lot with what i consider authentic 'nonduality' voices... getting into tricky words again tho... ;)

It is an echo of a Camus maxim I live by -- "You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you continue to search for the meaning of life ( ... )
