Speech/Silence - houtje - 11-01-2020
I want to talk about speaking vs keeping the silence. Specifically, when I witness, on the internet most often, people who claim to be spiritually advanced spewing all sorts of vile rhetoric, doctrine, hogwash or whatever, I get this burning sensation all over my body, followed by manic laughter (often out loud, I kid you not) and then I'm like contemplating for 15 minutes, while giggling, whether or not I am going to annihilate aforementioned bullshit.
Thing is... this stuff, it's draining. And more often than not, I am not able to penetrate those folks' dense cloud of ignorance.
So one part of me wants to keep the silence more... but it seems I can't make the warrior shut up.
So now I'm trying to figure out: what do I really want? Well; what I want most is to serve positive polarity... but either a part of me can't completely forgive myself for trying to annihilate other people's false belief systems OR a part of my can't completely forgive other people for being ignorant.
Thing is; I think I'm being honest if I say that I do feel compassion for my "targets". Often it is precisely because I feel compassion that I can manage to spend quite some time on constructing an appropriate offence.
I don't know... perhaps I need someone to give me good roasting from some sort of perspective that I'm currently overlooking.
So please; feel free to give me your take on it; and please, do not feel as though you should hold back. Give me your worst!

lol houtje, isn't life a paradox ?
I am sure what you feel inside is shared by an enormous amount of people, you are not alone here ! I laugh with you. I used to feel like that decades ago. Until one day someone told me what I was so at war or thought was so foolish in someone else was exactly how I had functioned at some point, and looking back was despising myself for it !!! Now I think of what that friend told me years back, and I loot at myself land laugh, live and learn...
it's good to be passionate, dont lose it, ...
and welcome here !!!
