Thanks Steve.
I appreciate your reply too. And while we may view procreation from a different vantage point, I sense a peace in your beliefs and your actions that I find agreeable. It tells me that people become too polarized in their views, and can't see that all paths have something to offer.
I am glad you can view the motion picture we call Life with appreciation.
We have been put in a lower age Eric, the reason we are here when people are creating like a bunch of rats, is a total lack of understanding of what our purpose is here in life; it is not to outdo nature and secure our self a position in life among a rat tribe.
I will be putting more information - as I have for years - on sensory overload, which is a major factor that underlies your/our perceptions in this thread. Although at this point I just want to mention that like every expression of duality we are absorbed with in this current materialistic reality in the lower Dwapara or Bronze Age, one definitive explanation will only exist in a larger context that includes another quite different perspective. So we find that although we are surrounded by too many people, as an example, most of us find that it is also an important factor in our spiritual growth. Why? Because there is also the danger of isolating factors too shelter our skewed view of social interaction.
I would like to think that part of our larger purpose is to be here - here and now - and not in a much higher age is to be harbingers of a new race and enlightened perception - however small that light we emanate may at times appear - we are carrying the torch ahead of our time. And, we must recognize that with gifts and grace we also have a responsibility to maintain a certain quality of expression within all the chaos around us. This is the test of our time and that challenge we face, to stand out with a radiance when there is so much darkness descending on our planet in the short term dip we presently feel around us. We often reach out seeking some solace in our journey with others we have attracted to fulfill this our small mission in our development.
