The following is a recount of a discussion I had with a
bloke by the name of Eddie. I found this bloke quite enlightening so again I
thought I would share but another conversation with him which started off on
the topic of unconditional love. It is
quite interesting where this conversation actually went too.
Eddie
We realize the
unconditional true love the moment we simply allow all to come, stay and go as
they like without the slightest movements of pushing or pulling but simply be.
As long as all are happy so am I ~ Love.
Me
Eddie Lau I love your
perspective on this.
It's hard for people
to just let it be without having the urge/desire to push & pull, they’re
not aware by letting it just be without a desire to influence, life becomes
quite magical & serine~beautiful Eddie.
Eddie
Just be without effort
naturally is one with the nature of all itself. It is simple but we choose the
hard way by seeking endlessly for the truth which we already are therefore we
suffer.
Me
Eddie Lau It makes
perfect sense Eddie only because we are aware.
Eddie
Mathew Naismith We can
only realize ourselves the moment the effort/intention to realize/seeking
ceases.
Me
Eddie Lau Yes, I woke
up to this some time ago, it took looking at my attachments as a falsity, how
can you become attached to something you never own!!
It must be scary
finding out you never even own your own thoughts, I always somehow knew this.
If you don't own your own thoughts you own nothing & if you own nothing you
have nothing to become attached too.
I have emotional
feelings for people, places & things but I don't own or possess them.
Having no attachments doesn't make one emotionless.
Eddie
Mathew Naismith Oh
yes, life goes on emotionally with different perspective called compassion
knowing all as one whole entire nature itself doing our very best without
attachment or trying to control being this or that now or becoming this or that
in the future.
Me
+Eddie Lau I believe
what you are talking about here takes wisdom to be aware of.
It's funny because I
don't understand why most people aren't this wise to understand this, it's a
far better way to live than the way they have chosen to live, it's beyond most
people's imagination.
Most people make the
mistake in attaching attainments to love when love can exist without such
attachments.
I was chatting with a
lass recently abut unconditional love, she attached pain to love, you can't
love without having been in pain at least once. I said we have got to get away
of the perception of relating pain with love.
In a reality of total
unconditional love pain can't exist because the energy of this love is non-penetrable
to anything not of that energy form like pain for instance.
Eddie
Mathew Naismith We are
already the wisdom itself the moment we claim nothing is belonging to us
including the wisdom itself. All are indeed the one mind/nature of abundance.
Free all as they are so that all frees us as we are.
It is ignorance or
delusion not seeing things as they really are but we see things the old
habitual ways that we are use to it clinging to what is known fearing the
unknown. Therefore we keep seeking and running endlessly chasing our own tails.
I can never exist
without you. We can never exist without the all that we can sense. Everything
that we can sense are our teachers including our sharings here reflecting on each
other on our curiosities and insights.
In reality, the
existences were the continuation of the pasts renewing itself to the future
endlessly and the only freedom is the wisdom or the understanding of
nature/mind while life goes on and on without affection, not affecting the
wisdom that was never born and will never dies.
Me
Eddie Lau Very good
answer Eddie, yes we are wisdom itself, I suppose all we have to do is remember
this.
"I can never
exist without you", I have stated this a few times which of course to a
person who only perceives in oneness can't grasp. It takes individuals to make
a collective, oneness is a collective of individuals. Me, as an individual, is
just as important than the collective.
The only reason we
become aware of oneness isn't through the collective but individuals playing
their part. Everything around us is individual parts of the collective, without
these individual parts we have no collective.
I also have a lot of
people saying we shouldn't think, just quieten the mind & everything will
be alright. We have a mind for a reason, yes quietening the mind will improve
our living conditions but we have stopped utilizing the mind. All we really
have to do is reprogram the mind with different programs that include wisdom.
The way we are using
technology today isn't wise obviously, we don't counteract this by dumping the
mind but reprogram the mind with different more wiser programmed programs.
I couldn't agree with
you more when you stated, "the only freedom is the wisdom or the
understanding of nature/mind while life goes on and on without affection".
Trying to counteract the mind/thought with thoughtlessness is going right along
with the push & pull effect, yes we are chasing our own tails.
