I was not assuming a stance. I was only explaining that sometimes in my verbal accounting of things it could be interpreted as a Zen Point of view. It's difficult to talk about things of a paradoxical nature with out standing outside of the paradox and assuming what appears as a point of view. This leaves the door open to all kinds of assumptions and makes it difficult to understand what I am trying to say. My understanding of Being is that it just is. It always has been and always will be. I doesn't do anything though it is the source of all action. When we awaken to it's presence we naturally begin to align ourselves to it as it is totaly attractive and we fall in love and try to cultivate our relationship to it. We surrender to Being and as we grow in our feeling awarness of it we surrender more. Thus our awkening grows and we become useful in helping others awaken. The mind is not the enemy, but it can't comprehend infinity. It can't explain anything about what is happening. Saniel says it like a dumb kid brother that never catches up. I am not mind, I am not what I think. I am a total Being that has many facets and out of long years of thinking it is a hard habit to break. Being is experienced as peace, love and silence. It is felt as what Saniel calls the Nectar. A very sweet presence that lets us disolve into a delicious feeling of love and gratitude. This is beyond and prior to the thinking mind as Being always was before we were born. That is the gift of Awakening and it is the fucus of all my work. I want to remove any emotional obticles that prevent me from growing in my feeling awarness of Being. That as closely as I can discribe it is what I want to represent in life. I consider it the most wonderful gift and I hope to be able to share this with others and help them to their own realziation. Does this clear anything up for you?
