Hi Steve.
That's kind of you to clarify, especially because I did not delete my post.
I'm aware of the rules, and made peace that you deleted it.
I found the artist rendering spot on and rather comical- for many of us who see the reality presented, it provides a little relief from damning revelations. But I am aware that everyone has opinions that don't always coalesce with others.
Learning to navigate the waters in a world of loud opinions, is a real spiritual practice.
I was feeling inspired to write something. I'll share it in the appropriate section. Cheers.
Like everything in this physical dimension, it caries an element of duality. This applies to expression and speech as well as silence and repose. We are given experiences to discriminate and evaluate our various ‘reactions’ to our attachments to our particular views and thoughts. It is very difficult to control the thoughts we hold within our consciousness. It is somewhat like tucking in a shirt. We often find that the shirt comes out again and we have to tuck it back in. Likewise thoughts find a way to manifest regardless of our best intentions. These type of thoughts can act as a hindrance to the manifestation of consciousness in meditation. Meditation is the absence of thought and the manifestation of consciousness.
