Kindly be mindful of the following points regarding the forum. Dialogue is thinking together - it isn’t debate - and it's inquiring together without end point or agenda. People come into the dialogue from their own place of understanding, which is not going to be your place of understanding. We’re here to communicate together, learn together and gain insight into our own thought; to receive and share our observations, not impose our views on others. Address the comments in a polite, considerate manner. By all means, ask for clarification, but challenge the comment, not the commentator. We don’t know enough about the others to make those judgments and we’re here to learn about ourselves, not to correct another's perceived personality flaws. If a comment brings an emotional response, look at that. Do you feel the need to defend? To attack? Time for some looking inward. Self protection results in war. Besides, the war is in each of us. Stop that war, and the rest will take care of itself. (For some suggestions on the nature of dialogue, please click here)

Take long time, at least for me,I still with so much conflict and panic

But to grow still means the ego...What happens when the opposite happens? What happens when ALL growth comes to an end?

What are you talking about sir? We were talking about why a person would want to communicate using a pseudonym.

Sir, last week a person admitted to me that he operates 3 or 4 accounts in Kinfonet as westerners.Somebody who cannot stand K's name!!So it can be happening here too. This explains how some come up with unexplainable hostile comments sometimes.

You know sir there is a person here who didn't deny when I said he is awareness day before yesterday! Well he too says he is nobody but calls all sorts of names phoning me in drunken stupor!! So much for enlightenment! A drunk one!!

I joined this forum to mutually discuss sir.Not to disprove anybody or prove myself.

So important point

But that is exactly what I was saying: taking time, growth continues, you want to improve, get better-all this reinforces one's ego. How can all improvement come to an end?

Obviously, I mean psychological growth-all our talk here, or most of it anyway, is psychological. You may say to me that it doesn't exist, but for that to be seen I must first stop growing and see what happens. Can one do that?

one IS the growing, in the ending of the one is the ending of growing, in which is the "grower". "growing" without the "grower"?

So you're telling me that when the grower stops separating himself from the growth they both stop. Is that right? If that's what you're saying, I agree, of course. But it doesn't happen: the grower continues to believe in his existence, and so growth continues, which is of course a sham.

Ok

Well, can it come to an end? I get the impression you don't want it to come an end: practically, I'm telling you to die! And you're saying to yourself: 'What a moron! He wants me to die, who does he think he is? Of course, I won't, I want to live, not die!!! Is that correct?

the grower is the grown, in which there is a meaning beyond the word. you can use the word "growing", in which there is no meaning, because it is unknown

Re: Has anyone seen the CNN story on Jesus, last night?

Ah, no! Not 'less growth'-that is more of the same. To end it completely-for the moment you don't see the beauty of it. Stay with it a little bit, please.

Then don't use that word! The grower is also the growth, the very process of growing, in the sense of improving, making progress, all that. When there is no subject the process stops.

No, I want to die also, die my personality
My past
My vision
My juldjement on people
But want my heart be a live, to created, to impulse, to go outing the morning, but comeback fast to where I left my breakfast
To come home
To found the wish to pray, without praying

Re: Has anyone seen the CNN story on Jesus, last night?

Yeah, no, that comment was addressed to Ekanta, who mentioned the phrase 'less effort to grow'.

  To #1071.

Pray for what?! What do you want to pray for? That indicates desire: what do you desire? Can you die and at the same time have desires?
