some problems you cant

[Professoranton]

Should we think/talk about these?

[deepashtray]

Buddhism teaches us to be fully engaged in the moment... very similar effect.

@jruizdemena It is unfair and unjust to involve him with such movements.

Many thanks, professor. Aside from watching your new videos I frequently delve into your archive and I find a lot of it very beautiful and deeply inspiring. One remark about Krishnamurti: he also recommended “inaction” when there’s no clarity of mind (which I personally find a very useful guideline. :-) ) Kind regards from Belgium.

@CammieSpectrum yes, especially if all we actually need to do is find space and u can gain al the secrets of the universe!! yes thats right i said everything!

just, as alan watts said, don't be attached, too much, don't be detached at ALL, take the middle way, accept everything mindfully, including guilt+hurt, stay the course hey presto!

no more theories u start knowing things

owning is a substitute for knowing.

that is my retort

: )

@natmanprime sadly, I don't think most anyone has realised how society is heavily biased to left brain stereotypes, even IQ Tests. but how could they. I think

the promoters of this sick society based on pride in having more than others & pride in being of higher rank than others, don't realize what they are destroying.. pride in being able is the type of pride that has seemed to vanish. for it is easier to get the symbols of accomplishment, than accomplishing. academia is the worst at this. :)

[natmanprime]

I suffered as a smoker. I constantly applied time (thought) to it. It wasnt until there was immediate insight that the problem dissolved, no more cigs! How is this possible? Smoke for 15, never able to quit, then in a moment of insight, never smoking again? Is it because the seeing is the doing? The insight is the action! Observation takes care, love, attention. I never had that in 15 years; I condemned, I justified, I escaped. When I am interested in the problem enough to observe, it is solved.
