Which are beliefs and mind states. Ripoche Krishna said "Go beyond the changing mind states. Go beyond the concepts of integrity and dedication. Even then, go beyond integrity and dedication. And for God's sake, STOP trying, stop feverently desiring the Desireless state. Let go of all such mindstates." And "Singular states are duality disguised in (mind) shifty terms. Being singular means being isolated, an island off the shore of wholeness. Go beyond duality, go beyond singularity, simply be the Vastness, right here, right now." from the Nirguna Sutras > To try and game "Total gaming, is total playfulness. Upon realizing the Vastness, only play is possible. See divinity playing hide and seek in every face and situation. Play. Grown-ups have forgotten how to play. Vastness is only open to the utterly playful. In non-play, there is always holding on. In utter playfulness, there is nothing to hang onto. Freefalling in utter Vastness. Game On!" nirguna sutras >it into some sort of popularity contest is misguided and immature, imo. "Immaturity is utter spirituality. Immaturity is letting totally go of all restrictions, mandates, proper ways, judgements, blame and regrets. Immaturity is seeing, being , all possibilities in every moment -- while knowing that there are no moments. Play On. Game One. DeAdulterize your life." nirguna sutras > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, turquoiseb <no_reply@> wrote: > > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, cardemaister <no_reply@> wrote: > > > > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, nablusoss1008 <no_reply@> wrote: > > > > > > > > Oh ?
