Thanks guys, I am humbled by your responses.
I stopped contributing to forums coz I truly felt that everyone was perfect and entitled to their time and space (in keeping with my own philosophy). But then, I recall that I was desperate to share in the experiences of others who precede me when I started contributing to these forums. But Alas, to be faced with MUCH that is utter delusion wore me down to less than a nub of my "radiant" self. I shared here today because the topic was relevant, and this is one of the very few places I have found that has a genuine resonance beyond a profit generating exercise.
Carla is Gem, and she was able to understand me in the the darkest depths of my post awakening "dis-illusion". I was lonely and angry. She held a torch and did not try to "capture" me like some moth in the dark...
I have again found my own light entirely within. We all have it. Do not EVER let go, but let go. Your journey is a paradox. If you are searching, then you are already there. The Journey IS the destination. We are all on the same road back to source.
I tell you this candidly (in the spirit of this forum), be careful what you pray for. Enlightenment is Endarkenment, also.
When you participate with-in "God", you take on the yoke of infinite unknowing also. It is not for the feint hearted - and it is certainly not all "bliss", for bliss comes from not knowing.... The best I have achieved, in accord with my "knowing" is a healthy balance (depicted by the twin snakes in my little logo) of perpetual knowing/unknowing. I hope this does not make for nonsense, lest I waste my time with these vapid words.
"It" (enlightenment) has become a steady joy for me. The opportunity to share such insight is a privilege, and that privilege is the only profit that should be sought by any who manage to capture your attention.
Know this: I know NOTHING. I am a walking-talking "paradoxymoron". i.e., "Dog-gone-goD" or "God-gone-doG"... take your pick. We are one and the same in the end, which is now. The start of all beginnings.
Thank you.
