Theos-World Response to Richard

Jun 18, 1999 08:42 AM
by Jerry Schueler


>>Good point, Jerry.  I was also tempted to jump in to defend poor Paul a
little, but I have more or less decided to give up such activities.
(Defense
seems doomed to failure, anyway, considering that many seem to want so badly
for the read-only Big Tidy Package to be true that they will probably NEVER
develop enough subtle skill with nonattached, transcendental investigation
to
actually discover whether even a particle of it is true.)<<

Richard,  thank you. You are absolutely right.  Until one directly
experiences
non-duality, one wanders through life with very strange beliefs.

Recently I have been re-reading Nagarjuna, whose middle way doctrine
denounces all extremes.  According to Nagajuna, even HPB's Beness,
Space, and Motion, have to go. Even emptiness is empty.  So all our
mental gymnastics on this list are idle chatter.

I too, at long last, am finally giving up.

Jerry S.
