Spiritual Rebirth Amidst Mystical Marshmallows.....

>>It's not hard to fathom. It's very easy to understand what you are promoting: the age-old mystic fallacy of denying and subordinating "self" to some other person, object or fantasy. Since the self is central to judgment, identity and morality, all you are calling for is a kind of spiritual suicide in the name of selflessness.

I am not confused. My world is not fuzzy, and I take real risks everyday. If you have renounced your "self" then what you said about it is true: For anything "I" say doesn't matter a crock. But those who have a clear world picture, a philosophy that is objective and understand that words have real meaning attached to them, will not fall into your marshmallow. mystical trap.

There's nothing to "fall for."

Give up trying to define, control and possess your objective world view.

Let go.

Jump into the river.

Let the energy from your actions from taking risk while helping others empower you, fufill you and guide you.

Try it, you will like it.

Peace.

GO!!
