Quote: "I am not in contention with you. I am trying to demonstrate with words the non - contentious mind. The reason masters discontinue using words, is because it can not be intellectually arrived at, that is all. "

Can this be the answer? |

So to sum up some wisdom and finally give something to reflect* on:
"what you believe others are thinking being in relation to you directly affects how others are thinking being in relation to you"
*This profound wisdom does not apply to people living in caves feeding of wild roots and berries in total isolation from all fellow beings including animals.

Shield yourself in any answer and this will be your cage. Take refuge in what does not cling to any absolute truth. Take refuge in the demonstrated enlightenment of the Buddha, take refuge in the teachings, take refuge in the company of those who seek to implement these teachings in their life. |

Quite right. We cannot be concerned with the opinions of others. They change all the time anyway. What our wives, husbands or partners feel, on the other hand, is an altogether different question.

OR...Pacify the corruption within by skillful means, who cares if it's enlightenment or not. Just do it, and be done. Life is beautiful; everything has beauty.
Enjoy your day! :) |

In the teaching where the student ask for his master to pacify his mind, the master asked for him to show this mind for him to pacify. His student then became enlightened.
I was completing the sentence, the story, nothing more. |

What exactly is corrupt? It is what it is, set it down and let it keep going. If you hold it in a little cage and name it corruption, then you will start a quest for non-corruption, and end up in a world of polarity, division, contention, duality, war. Reject nothing, and hold nothing.

Peace arises within one's soul once the need or greed for consumption ends. |

I agree. Delusion/Corruption/Ignorance/Illusion/Illness/Suffering are not in my vocabulary. I was at the gas station this afternoon and was getting some orange juice out of the cooler. Just listening to some of the others talk I noticed a presence in their voices that was immeasurable. It took me into a moment of reflection. Each day is something new even if it's been routine for years. That's all. |
