They seem to take care of themselves nicely without my having to micromanage it all. Those Hitlerian or Nietzschian fantasies you spoke of can evaporate pretty damn fast when Brahman has you and it becomes abundantly obvious that you are/have always been utterly perfect (just like the world) and no better and no worse than the dog feces by that fire hydrant. Literally. RudraJoe wrote: <snip> A beneficient mercury with a good saturn would make for a stable heaven on earth. If those two conditions change for everyone then how can heaven on earth be stable? If I forget remind that I once had an answer to this before it runs away. Rory wrote: Heaven on Earth doesn't depend on anyone except You, as far as You are concerned. Once you jump in, the whole world changes; You ARE the whole world. This may not be a lot of fun at first (although it is an immense relief) but it can warm up pretty quickly to sustain any level of love/ecstasy. The paradox is -- always changing, ever the same. How do these two qualities can co-exist -- impermanence and permanence? How can the Impersonal, unchanging Abyss can also be Lively and Personal? I can only say, it just IS. One of those paradoxical qualities one can't wrap one's head around so long as one stays in slice-and-dice rational spacetime. Have to be wholehearted to embrace it all -- jump right into the Abyss, fearlessly and with full trust.
