Accepting Imperfections

Written by Mathew Naismith

When we get to a certain level of understanding we become accepting quite automatically even of the imperfections of life, it’s a totally exhilarating experience of benevolent oneness.  This is the acceptance of all imperfections because we no longer see imperfections; we then feel they really never truly existed but is this the be & end all?  Infinite comes to mind when this question is asked & the answer of course is no this isn’t the be & end all however it will do fine especially when we are living in such a chaotic reality.

Some people like myself realise there is no be & end all even when it feels that way because consciousness itself is infinite, so what else is there after experiencing benevolent oneness & acceptance of all? While in this state of benevolence it is nearly impossible to become non-accepting again even at the human level of understanding & in actual fact it seems to be impossible once you have experienced this state of benevolence oneness to become non-accepting again, who would want too anyway?

While in this benevolent oneness state of conscious understanding are we accepting within the totality of all? To answer this question we need to ask another question, why is it seemingly nearly if not totally impossible for people to become non-accepting again while in this state of consciousness?   We can’t accept ourselves being that way again so are we accepting within the totality of all when we can’t accept ourselves being this way again?  Being in a state of benevolent oneness can take many lifetimes to accomplish but to become accepting within the totality of all of course would take many more lifetimes to accomplish but what if you could accept, once again, in one lifetime to become accepting within the totality of all by accepting within yourself to become non-accepting again while knowing you are actually all accepting!!

The big question is now, did existence within it’s totality come from benevolent oneness? Our egos would love to think so but how could it when consciousness itself isn’t of time therefore all has always existed from perfections to imperfections, existence itself has come from all of what is not what we would have liked it to come from!!  

If you don’t understand what I am saying here you’re not meant too so don’t try however for those who do understand you would know there is no be & end all, only infinite realities.  It is interesting being consciously aware of living within more than one reality at a time I have to admit.     

   

Recently on IONS I got message telling me of my imperfections which was justly deserved & appreciated by me. This same person knows me from other discussion boards & was being quite concerned within my actions towards others who are unbecoming towards me & others.

I'm new to this discussion board, but have commented on many others. mrmathew1963, your frustration with personal attacks, defamation and topic focus are prevalent on all discussion boards. You have to understand that some enjoy antagonism and arguing just for the sake of it. The more you protest, the more the antagonist engages in this behavior. Like a restrictor knot, the more you struggle the tighter the knot becomes.

Laughing at your own misgivings as portrayed by others, accepting constructive criticism and forgiveness in lieu of hate and resentment are some of the toughest psychological barriers to overcome, but once realized creates open acceptance by others and a sense of inner calm and an increased knowledge source and base for you.

The problem is Dusty has chased a number of people away by doing what he is doing to me, I'm bringing this forth to be noticed by people who don't realise what Dusty is actually doing & it has worked I believe.

I do understand where you are coming from with this believe it or not but I'm doing what I'm supposed to be doing, letting my ego ride the waves without it becoming too controlling.

Believe me SU I don't take what people say on these discussion sites personally, well maybe a little at the human level of understanding as this is just part of riding the waves.

Sorry for being too disruptive SU, thanks for your valued advice. -:)

There is absolutely nothing wrong for a spiritually aware person to be imperfect actually it’s more spiritual to be accepting of all imperfections & what better way to do this than be imperfect yourself.  SU was meant to show me my own imperfections because these kinds of imperfections are hard to tolerate from people trying desperately hard to become perfect. Don’t try to be perfect, consciousness itself is infinite meaning there is no real perfection or imperfections only what we perceive to be perfect & imperfect, all what one needs to do is be yourself.  Being spiritually aware has nothing at all to do with perfection or imperfection just being aware of infinite realities & accepting of all of them at the same time if possible.
