Thanks for the clarification, Steve. Mine wasn't really a comment, just a question.
I just watched a special documentary on the Beatles recordings hosted by a producer interviewing McCartney. On one of the episodes Paul talked about George letting Eric Clapton sing some of George's part in one of the Beatles songs, with Paul pointing out that George didn't care for the accolades, he was just happy to give his friend a part, not verbatim but my take on it. Paul went on to say George was a very wise man, acknowledging Georges keen spiritual leanings.
If you think of a crime scene and all the different witnesses, the police piece together the truth from the different perspectives of each of the witnesses point of view. We are all trying to make sense of our two worlds, the outer show and our inner show which can be even more deceptive than what comes from outside. That's my understanding of Master's teachings anyway, and I think the crime scene scenario backs this up.
Yea we often see a bit of ourselves in the outer reels. We come into this life working out desires and perhaps 🤔 creating some new ones along the way. The phenomenal success of those guys and the talent they left, led me at one time to ask the head monk of the monastery where I lived for 6 years. “How do such people come into this life with so much talent from an early age? His answer; ‘they attend various regions in the after life where they are trained to work on something of that nature’ to paraphrase him. So I would suppose that it would take many incarnations of work and experience as well as some degree of good karma to even be able to be able to go to those regions of the astral realm. Not to mention the infinite temptations of worldly life and fame that would hack away at their talent to express such innovative expression, once they were given the script. Such people are very complex and have many good and some challenging aspects to their persona. Through them we are often able to learn about ourselves as well, since everything we witness is part of our consciousness. Just as we have seen unkind words others have thrown at us as barbs, they also have had many unkind thoughts about one another yet there have been moments of understanding as well, and appreciation for all our life’s experiences.
