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)

Re: Masters of illusion.

And a violent mind such as tree can never touch upon that thing called love.

Yes, fear of feelings is the same as getting carried away by them and we can see both these extremities right here on this forum, both of which arise from fear.  But it depends what you mean when you say, "others can see it in us at times even when we can't see it in ourselves" as mostly the others are as lost and what they see might be their own projections about us.  Have you ever actually felt a deep sense of communion with anyone here where you both were able to at the same time see and feel into your own hearts and minds simultaneously and into each other?   Rarely.  Often times people are lost in ideas and knowledge and so missing out to meet with the other and feel and see together into each other and their own minds and hearts.   Anyways,  hope you din't mind me pondering along.  Thanks.

Oh and let me tell you I've seen how people's 'feelings' have a shade of tremendous violence to it, but ofcourse they're not true, deep feelings but sentiments and emotions coming out of a mind that is self deprived, lonely and or desparate due to not having gone deeply into itself and that's a vast majority.  What they call love is really a horrible thing, you see.

do you honestly feel that your statement above does not apply to you as well..?

Re: Masters of illusion.

You have not seen it in yourself all of this and you are asking someone else who is actually going into all this.  Evidently you felt offended by 'my' observations in the above post reacted to it.  Secondly then asking the wirter of the post if it applies to her as well, when you have never ever gone into anything deeply, things that K pointed out.  So your question is redundant as are your comments to the above post.

No offense but completely another idiotic question, really, because it shows that to you eI'm an angel or needless to add, a devil, and that's sentimentalism and sentimentalism is not love.

The one going into all of this, seeing all of this is freeing itself as it sees, and or look at it this way, it's only a free mind that can go into anything since it is free to begin with to see, to explore, and those who aren't seeing, only react (such as you).  You react since you are not seeing this in yourself.

This "everyone" to whom it is obvious is the illusion, and so are you,  and even if you insist and cling to this "everyone", I'm not a least bit concerned with what everyone thinks of me, but you are, obviously and so pretend to be love when what you are is actually violence, not love.

you have the rhetoric but not the action, you make that clear everyday, if you actually lived what you speak you would not be attacking people day after day and then spouting off about love...

Re: Masters of illusion.

It is also observed that anytime you feel weak, you bring in this "everyone" as a kind of a support system, to back your violent thoughts.  Not just you but others have done the same and it only reveals a weak, wimpy, old mind with no integrity to face anything by itself, and alone, and so clings to "we","everyone" to save itself from it's own inner demons.;-)

that's just a cop out pearl, the 'everyone' is the group you are speaking to here, as you are aware
