some modern teachers give much validity
to the world
like you are supposed
to realize the Absolute and then kind of
reemerge in the world more radiant and loving
and save all sentient beings. or be more exactly
here (meaning more here as a human being in a world)
or be here now (making what appears “now” real)

do you think that “awakening from all fixed points of view”
has a point from which to view from?
humanness is a point of view.

the world IS an illusion. (ancient scriptures were
not just kidding or trying to make hell for spiritual seekers)
find the truth in that statement
and THEN see if you can come back to a world
and love and save everybody

as to how an awakened being is supposed to act---
some awakened ones appear loving, some don’t
if they are really awake –there is NO identity
how they appear to "others" has nothing to do with them

how can something formless and absolute
manifest in ANY particular way
in an apparent world of form?

there is only ONE dreamer
only one wakes
the only enlightenment there is
is your own

The point of "Is", remains "Be" and all that is described or not as imagination remains for all to see or not see. Awakening can not dissolve reality or illusion - because there is no difference. To say, the world is an illusion - what have we done? Even in our awakened, enlightened state... we have created a vision. A vision of the world and of illusion. So what do we do? Nothing? Say nothing? All thought or no thought origionally appears somewhere, doesn't it? Is there a point in which it all balances - eternally? The idea of the journey to "Is" without steps is interesting.

This is a beautiful post--thanks. (Thanks, also, for sending the brochure. A recent artist's residency will take me to northern CA in the fall---I'll try to connect with you or maybe SAT)

Well--I popped into LJ to see what was up----and found my journal still in tact---?---so, I'm back.
It's so good to "see" your steady flame.
Love & Peace,
B.J.
