the particulars

It doesn't matter so much what I believe in terms of the particulars of the Christian story. What happened, happened. What did not happen, did not happen. What matters is what I do with what I am. And the particulars of that don't matter so much either. What matters is that my dualistic tendencies move in harmony with the nondual.
Then all is well.

  2. George,

    I like the idea that the mind, when utilizing it's greatest power, is thinking abstractly ... not specifically or as you say the particulars.

    That is to say, the mind was build to think abstractly, such as love, and "Think of God".

    To think specifically is to think as an ego, to think abstractly is think as a Spirit.

    Lova ya man.

  3. "... move in harmony with the nondual."

    Does the "nondual" have relationships, such that one's actions can be "in agreement with" (the etymology of "harmony") it? Or is this, perhaps, a metaphorical expression for 'kenosis,' where "relationship" falls away--like a husk--to birth the nondual?

    Or, again, is this 'horizontal ideation' showing it's vertically challenged?

    Musings...
